All Chapters of Gosh!!! Addicted to my CEO Ex-Husband: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Gabriel was worried about Doreen for her betterment because she still hadn't stopped crying at night and covering her face with makeup in the morning. If Dexter would see her without makeup, then he would understand the depth to which she was damaged because of him. Dexter could not be blamed since he was not aware and had not made any promises to Doreen but since he came after she had left, Gabriel wanted to have this serious talk with him. ‘If you want to see her, she is here in this office but I am concerned about your concern because I would not do what you are doing for any of my staff.’ Gabriel’s serious words kept ringing in Dexter’s mind like a bell. His steps were slow but he made it to the chair in front of Gabriel and sat down, since he mentioned that Doreen was in the office. It meant that Gabriel had an inner room or Doreen was in the washroom. Since she was the reason why Dexter was there, he decided to talk with Gabriel, as he was also surprised that Doreen had such

A small smile curled up Dexter’s lips and he returned to sit in front of her. Doreen suddenly lost all her confidence when his dark gaze met her green eyes. It was too late to take back her words as a result of the expectation she created in his mind so she went on to narrate, “Remember when you bought your first customized car? I was there on an internship program and that was when I first saw you and also felt attracted to you.” Dexter recalled when he bought his first customized car from the factory and that was two years ago. Doreen must have been in college by then. “I researched about you and found where you worked so after my graduation, I decided to work for you, as your secretary, so I’d be close to you but you already had one.” “Your HR Manager said my performance was good and she could not let me go so that was how I got the job of a Quality control officer but that was not enough to get me close to you so I befriended your secretary.” Doreen guzzled, blushing from em

“Gab, I want you. I don’t want you to stop.” Maeve’s eyes were pleading, her body burning with unrelinquished desire. Gabriel stared intently at her with eyes burning with the same level of desire, if not more. The desire to possess and take everything that he felt belonged to him. Maeve held his gaze stubbornly, refusing for this moment to pass them by. When Gabriel did not attempt to honor her words, she held his hand and walked him to the bed. Maeve lowered herself to the bed, taking a sitting position with an unwavering gaze on him. When she let go of his hand, she quickly removed her blazer and was about to unbutton her shirt when Gabriel lowered himself to sit beside her and held her hand, stopping her actions. Maeve was embittered, as her eyes turned teary. “You won’t do it?” she asked in a teary voice, it stung Gabriel’s heart and he pulled her to his chest. Gabriel did not want to make her feel bad but neither could he hide it from her since she asked about it. He had n

“Dylan,” Maeve answered and put her phone on speaker. She no longer had anything to hide. Dylan’s desperate voice rang from the end of the line, “Maeve, where are you? You aren’t home yet.” Maeve pursed her lips and looked at Gabriel. His hands were relaxed on the steering wheel and he glanced at her with a nod, encouraging her that it was okay. No matter what? Maeve was concerned about how he felt because of how she hurt him so much in the past, she never wanted to do anything to see him in any kind of agony. “Are you in my house?” She asked suspiciously and Dylan responded, “Well, I missed you and came to check on you.” He did not want to voice that he saw a picture of her and Gabriel in a house when they were supposed to be in the office. The picture got him so upset, he literally ran out of his house to his car to drive to Maeve’s house to confirm it. Maeve took a deep breath and relaxed. “I’m on my way home. I went to help Gabriel with a surprise for his mom. I got tired a

Gabriel’s phone began to ring but it was an unknown number. For some reason, he answered and put the phone on speaker since Maeve was there and it didn’t look like a business call. “Hello.” “Gabriel, did you receive my parcel?” A female voice rang from the end of the line and he quickly guessed it was Millicent but still asked, “Who is this?” “It's me, Millicent. I left a note in there for you,” she responded in a cheerful tone. Maeve was smiling all through while Doreen was amazed by her brother’s transparency with Maeve. Little did she know it was because of the seed Maeve planted. She was transparent with him concerning Dylan so he also did not have a choice. “Really, what was it about?” Gabriel asked in a neutral tone. “Sorry, I forgot you are still in the office. You will most probably only open it when you get home. Anyway, the parcel is my way of thanking you for the car you advised me to buy but there is also some attire for you to wear to my elder sister’s wedding as my
