All Chapters of The Billionaire's Secret Baby : Chapter 191 - Chapter 200

"Just the top five floors.""Oh," I replied. Just the top five floors of this very impressive building.We got off the elevator, and he led me through a pretty standard looking office landscape. There were cubicles full of office supplies and people's personal touches, like photos of kids or significant others. I thought about maybe getting to put up a picture of Makayla, and smiled to myself.We went right to the office at the back, the only one that didn't have glass walls."Wait here, please," the man said, and knocked on the door. A muffled "come in" responded and he slipped inside, shutting the door behind him. I waited awkwardly for what seemed like a long time, though in reality it was probably less than a minute. Finally, the man emerged."You can go in, he's all set for your interview," he told me."Thank you," I said. He nodded and walked off. I turned to the door, still sitting slightly ajar, and pushed it open. I walked in and stopped dead in my tracks.The man behind the

DEIRA I hadn't been expecting another call from S&R Management. I certainly hadn't been expecting a call notifying me that there was a letter for me at their front desk. It felt like a trap. I asked them to send it to the flower shop. I figured even if he showed up with the letter personally, there wasn't much he could do in a public business. And though I wasn't close with my boss there, she was a decent person. I knew she wouldn't put up with any nonsense from him, or blame me if anything bad were to happen. Nothing bad happened, though. It actually was just a letter. A long letter. I glanced at it, feeling overwhelmed, and put it back into the envelope. But then it just sat on the table, like a ticking bomb. Finally, I gave in and read it. It wasn't what I was expecting. I was half expecting it to be from his lawyer. I had, after all, threatened him with my own (non-existent) lawyer. But it was from him, and it was surprisingly candid. It started with an apology, and then went i

CASSIUSI hadn't meant to ask Deira about seeing Makayla right away. It had just slipped out, my brain still fuzzy from our mind-blowing sex. I regretted the question as soon as I asked, and I felt Deira tense up. She pushed me off and went to grab her clothes off the floor.Well, I'd said it now. I decided confidence was the way forward."I know you probably don't want to think about it, but we have to talk about it at some point."She pulled on her shirt and started buttoning it, then finally looked at me."Well, I suppose 30 seconds after we finished having sex is the perfect time," she retorted.Her sarcasm irritated me, but I took a deep breath. I had promised in the letter that our interaction wouldn't be like last time in my office, and that meant no yelling and no bitter fights."We have to talk about it eventually," I said sternly. She finished buttoning her shirt and looked at me, crossing her arms."Do we?" she asked, and raised her eyebrows.I had to admire that she wasn't

DEIRAAfter I submitted my application, it only took Cassius's company a day to call and offer me the job. I wasn't surprised. I'd looked over the job listing, and I did seem qualified for it. In fact, I thought I might be really good at it. So, I happily accepted. The morning of my first day, I woke up early, and realized I was actually excited to go to work for the first time in a long time.Cassius met me that morning after I'd filled out all the paperwork for HR and insisted on introducing me to my manager personally. I let him walk me over to the PR department and give me a quick tour that ended in the office of the department manager, Mr. White. I didn't like him very much. As he shook my hand, he looked me up and down in a way that was more appropriate for a blind date at a bar than meeting a new employee. He grinned approvingly as if he liked what he saw, and he held onto my hand for a little too long.Still, he was very polite, and he was the head manager of the department, w

CASSIUSI was excited for the day at the amusement park, and from the smile Makayla gave me as she climbed into the car that morning, she was excited, too. I was dropping Deira off at work on our way, so I had brought coffee for her and juice for Makayla.As Deira got into the car, she looked around at it in amazement."How many cars do you have?""Oh, I, um... I'm just borrowing it from a friend. I thought it would work better than a sports car." Deira nodded in agreement and didn't say anything else. I didn't tell her that I'd actually specially rented the car for the day. I'd picked the car with the best safety ratings, something that seemed practical. I knew Deira felt that my lifestyle was too expensive and flashy, and I was trying to show her that I wasn't like that all the time.I was hoping seeing me in a family-type car would make her realize that I could be family-friendly, too.It was just a short drive to the amusement park once we dropped Deira off. It was a local place t
