All Chapters of Be Gentle With Me, Mr. CEO: Chapter 271 - Chapter 280

That evening, Calla stared at her phone for a long time. She wanted to call Mercer to ask about Pierre and Wanda, and also about his relationship with Pierre, but she hesitated. She was afraid he might misunderstand. Even if she wanted to mediate between the cousins, it might not only be in vain but could also worsen the situation.Now, not only did Wanda think there was something between her and Pierre, but even Mercer was also bothered by her continuing to be in contact with Pierre. As such, she could only keep things to herself.It seemed that the situations with Pierre and Wanda, as well as with Mercer, were beyond her control for now. She could only watch and see how things developed.Suddenly, her WhatsApp chimed. Calla picked up her phone and saw that it was a message from Mercer."I can't sleep because I'm thinking of you, so I'm sending you a message. I hope that's not against the rules."Calla smiled upon seeing the message. When did Mercer become so considerate? The M

The following messages were from this morning, starting from 7:00 am until the time Calla woke up."Are you up?""Are you still sleeping?""Are you up, sleepyhead?""I'm going to work.""I'm already at the office.""I've already finished the morning meeting.""I've already reviewed a few documents."And these were only a few of his many messages.Calla always believed Mercer was a man of few words. She had never seen him talk as much as he did last night. And now, seeing the dozens of morning messages, she couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. Was this the Mercer she knew?Despite the overwhelming sense of happiness, Calla still sent a message."I just woke up. Don't worry. I'm heading out to look for a job. I'll contact you in a couple of days."After sending the message, Calla held her phone in a daze for a while, thinking, "Since we've made a promise, I'll wait until he completely resolves the situation with Sophie before contacting him again. In the meantime, I can fully

Mercer froze on top of Calla. Thankfully, they were covered by a blanket and not completely exposed.Seeing Alicia, Calla immediately let out a scream. "Ah!" She burrowed under Mercer's arm.Having never experienced such a situation, Alicia stood rooted as if her legs were pinned to the floor. She stared wide-eyed at the two tangled figures, her mouth agape as if she could swallow a ping-pong ball."Are you going to keep standing there?" Mercer asked. Although his expression remained unchanged, he was clearly displeased with Alicia's continued gaping.Upon being reminded, Alicia quickly turned around, her face flushed with embarrassment. After all, she was still a virgin; she had never seen anything like this in real life."D-Do continue! I'll be going!" Alicia stammered as she turned around and headed toward the door. But realizing something was amiss, she hastily turned back to close the sliding door and hollered, "I'm really sorry. I didn't do it on purpose!"She continued to

Looking up at the domineering yet deeply affectionate Mercer before her, Calla hesitated for a moment before yielding and snuggling into his embrace. They were both overcome with emotion. Their cheeks brushed against each other, their intertwined fingers gently caressing each other's palms, and the warmth of their bodies gradually rose.Calla had never imagined that she would develop feelings for a man as exceptional and distinguished as Mercer, let alone fall in love and plan to marry him. And now, she was about to get married for the second time.As she traced her fingers over his handsome face, Calla felt an overwhelming happiness that was almost surreal. However, the heat of his lips against her skin reminded her that this was real, utterly and undeniably so.Perhaps their relationship had started with the primal impulses that often arose between a man and a woman, but now it had evolved into something profound and inevitable.This time, he was gentle—so gentle it almost brok

"Mom, you've said this so many times that I can recite it by heart." Even though Calla was complaining, her face was full of smiles.Carol rolled her eyes at Calla. "I'm just looking out for you. You're always complaining that I nag.""Okay, okay, I'll listen to your nagging from now on," Calla said in a fawning tone.Carol smiled kindly and then asked, "By the way, when are you going to have the wedding? You didn't have one last time; you can't skip it again this time, right? After all, the Garlands are a prestigious family. They wouldn't quietly marry you two and leave you feeling wronged, would they?"Calla knew Carol was just looking out for her. She explained, "Mercer said it would take at least a couple of months to prepare for the wedding, so we're getting the marriage registered first. "He promised it would be a grand affair. Honestly, I'm a bit worried about the hassle; those complicated procedures are annoying.""Silly girl, without those formalities, not only his dire
