All Chapters of Teach Me, Mr. CEO: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

EMBER"Zaire Langston Hughes, the CEO of Sarte group, confirms dating rumours with the supermodel Selene Hudson."It felt like a joke. Like her eyes were tricking her into seeing things, that's how shocking it was for her. And it threw her down the spiral of denial immediately. "Hey.. you okay?" Ruby placed a hand on her shoulder, concerned. But Ember did not stop skimming through the internet for more and more news to show up. None of them defied what she had read in the title. The internet had blown up with the news, people acting like wishes had finally been heard.Ember placed the phone away, disappearing to her room. She stared into the mirror and focused on herself. It was still unsettling to think she was led on like that, for no reason, only to bring her to stand there contemplating everything. Zaire Langston Hughes was always someone with hidden behind his words and she always found it strange. But why her? Why would he pretend to be interested into a commoner like her only

EMBER"We.. who told you you can get a servant to do things for you?" He said, making his words come crashing down on her."But sir, I was just-", Will attempted to somehow calm him down but they all knew it was of no use. Zaire just shot him an amused look with a smile of disbelief."And who told you to help her disobey my orders? It seems like you don't really like this job of yours, don't you, Mr. Thompson?" He continued, making her repeatedly provoked to feel worse and worse about it. Ember knew that him helping her would lead him directly into trouble."I had no such intentions to-""It's alright! He'll leave," Ember said, stern, walking up to Zaire and lowering her voice so that only he gets to hear what she has to say. "He doesn't deserve this treatment. He doesn't have to be a part of whatever game you're playing with me.""Why? Has he already become so important to you that you're ready to take his blame?" His eyebrows shot up in a mocking way. Ember found it obnoxious, the wa

EMBERShe watched them kiss and when they parted, they looked at each other. She was saying something and he was saying something, his mood did not look like it was bad at all. He looked like a completely different person.Ember felt the pangs in her chest at how easily his mood can lift just by her sight. And it felt guilty to be jealous because she had no rights to do that. Neither was he obligated to keep her in mind. She looked down at her feet.She had to wrap her head around the fact that he was actually dating someone and that was the truth. After this, no matter how much he confused her, it shouldn't affect her even the least because she would take it.To save herself from the spiral he was pushing her further into, she needed to stop letting it get to her. It was the best for her. She needed to go back to focusing on what she actually wanted.That's when she watched Selene get back into the car and Zaire followed. Ember walked towards the car before it could drive off to know

ZAIREThe room was empty, Ember was nowhere. He took a good look around the room and even the washroom but she wasn't there. He ran a hand through his hair and strode out of the room.He looked around a little, not calling out her name yet. He listened carefully to hear some cluttering noises from the kitchen. He made his way towards the kitchen with soft steps, and he peeked inside to see Ember nibbling around the corner of the kitchen."You should go to sleep. Don't make this harder for me, Ember," he said, making his way towards her as she turned to him. Her eyes were welled with tears and she was sobbing. He felt taken aback but also like he can't do anything about it. Just looking at her made it impossible for him to make decisions or be the judge of his character."You are still tormenting me! I'm being a burden to you, right? GOOD. Because that was the intention," her pleading voice turned into rage, her voice rising as she paced up towards him and glared at him with teary eyes.

EMBERZaire Langston Hughes.He stood outside the door, his eyes locked at her for a few seconds before realising she was all dressed up. He looked taken aback. Her mouth parted but she couldn't say a word. She noticed an equally shocked Ruby coming towards them to probably say a thing or two to Zaire but she wouldn't want that at all. Ember held up her hand and that stopped Ruby, making her back off and walk back into her room.Ember looked back at Zaire, still looking just as dejected."I didn't realise-"Silence. But he tried again."You need to come with me. I have a sudden scheduled meeting so.. I came to pick you up," he said, making Ember force herself to not let her mind go to places that would only prove her delusional further. She had to make use of all the self reflection she did."I can't come. I have something important I need to attend too," she said, firmly. A frown clouded on his face immediately like he was someone who couldn't take rejection well."It.. won't take lo
