All Chapters of The Cold CEO's Woman: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

As they get up to the third floor, most of the staff working there are already in their open glass offices. Anita admires the beautiful setting of the offices in open view.She follows the security guard until he stops in front of another glass office, where she sees some of the female staff staring at her, probably wondering if she's a client.The security guard steps into the glass office first, and she assumes the young man standing is Joel Gregory, whom she was asked to see."Sir, she's here to see you," the security guard informs Joel, who's dusting his seat and wanting to settle down as he just arrived."Name?" Joel asks the security guard."Your name, ma'am?" the security guard throws the question to Anita, who was previously staring around."Anita Baker," Anita replies."Oh! And you're?" Joel asks, feeling a bit familiar with her name."May I come in?" Anita asks him."Of course, come in." Joel offers her a faint smile as he finally settles down in his seat and gestures to her,

Time for lunch. Anita hears the company's alarm buzzer go off, and she stares at Margret, who has been busy doing all the work alone without requesting her help."Sorry, but what's that sound about?" Anita asks Margret as she sees a few staff and other male workers on the third floor coming out of their glass offices and walking to the elevator.Margret ignores her as if she didn't hear her speak."Hello?" Anita asks again with a slight frown."Can't you see I'm busy?!" Margret replies coldly, and Anita shakes her head and looks downward.Margret finally murmurs and stands up to go out and eat, as she's very hungry, without giving Anita any response.Anita sighs after Margret leaves her, and she continues to sit even as most of the staff on the third floor exit, heading to the elevator that takes them down. She wonders if this is probably their break time, and just then Joel walks up to her."Hi, pretty," Joel says as he pushes the office door open and peeks in."Aren't you going downs

Anita smiled sweetly as she quickly made her way toward the boss's office. Margret furrowed her brows at her as she watched her step into the only corridor leading to the boss's office.Margret wanted to stand up and call Anita back or question her ("Where does she think she's going?"), but she couldn't create a scene and was more likely to leave their client waiting to scold a staff member like her.Margret breathed heavily as she stared back at Miss Oyinda, who was looking at her."Who's that pretty young woman I just saw? Sorry if I am interfering; does she work here?" Miss Oyinda asked, feeling uncomfortable after seeing any pretty woman."Yes, she's my assistant," Margret managed to reply, forcing her response out."Your assistant? How can you allow such a beauty to work here?" Miss Oyinda asked, not realizing how the question slipped out of her mouth.Definitely, in her father's company, there were only men working for her, and the company mainly produced drinks and alcoholic win

Mrs. Juliet Jackson is in front of their home in the garden, watering her plants and flowers when she hears the sound of a car parking in their garage.She looks to see if her husband is the one returning. He had left after previously apologizing over the phone to his friend when they were seated together in their living room downstairs, telling his friend that he was truly sorry and would go to the company to see Liam right away about his actions.Mrs. Juliet knows her son is still finding it difficult to settle back in his homeland, as he already has a well-established business in the States.Liam stops walking toward their mansion and stares at the garden. He sees his mother watering the plants; she stops, hands over the watering can to one of their maids, and walks up to meet him."Good evening, Mom," Liam greets as his mother approaches and gives him a hug."Welcome, son. How was your day at the office?" Mrs. Juliet asks."It was fine, Mother. How was your day?" "Fine, son. Did

Mr. Taiye gets back home, and his driver parks their car in the mansion's garage while he steps out and walks toward their mansion. As he steps into the living room downstairs, he finds his wife arranging the dining table with the help of her maid."Welcome back, honey," Mrs. Juliet says as she walks away from the dining room to meet him. He gives her a hug and subtly kisses her cheek. Just then, Liam, who's coming downstairs, sighs as he descends the stairs to join his parents for dinner before retiring for the night.Liam isn't surprised by his parents' lovey-dovey nature in front of him. He knows his father loves his mother dearly; for this reason, despite his vast wealth, he still sticks with his wife, who bore only him, despite all her miscarriages."Welcome back, Dad," Liam says as he reaches the bottom of the stairs, announcing his presence in the living room.He silently hopes he can find a bride like his mother—a calm and understanding woman who knows him even when he isn’t ta
