All Chapters of A Mistaken Night With The CEO : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

"Where are you, Uncle? It's taking so long for you to step out," Alex complained, and Derrick remembered he was the one who brought Alex to work in his own car, just because he did not want Alex associating with Miranda.Derrick frowned and replied, "Wait for me at the car park. I will be there soon." After ending the phone call, Derrick ensured that everything in his office was neatly kept. He switched off his computer and rose from his seat.Clutching his black briefcase, Derrick finally exited his office, handing his office key to his assistant, before walking into the elevator and out of the company building."What took you so long, Uncle?" Alex asked as Derrick finally got into the car with him."Nothing that concerns you," Derrick replied and buckled his seat belt. He told his driver, "Drive."Alex looked at Derrick and shook his head, then remarked, "I guess it's about your secretary, right? Do you intend to court her? She seems pretty, though."Derrick didn't say a word in resp

After Derrick went into his bedroom, he took a bath. As he walked out and put on his evening robe, preparing to go downstairs for dinner with his mother, Derrick decided to phone Alexa to check if her phone was reachable."Hello," Derrick said as soon as the phone call connected."Hi, good evening, sir," Alexa replied, and Derrick questioned her, "Do you know who is speaking?"Meanwhile, Alexa was at her family house. Since she already had Derrick's number, she replied, "Yes, I am familiar with your voice, sir.""Hmm, that's fine. I just decided to call now because I had to take my bath and also dress up. How about you? What are you up to now?" Derrick tried to strike up a conversation with Alexa. She replied, "I am at home too, just preparing what I would eat.""Do you live alone? I thought you resided with your parents?" Derrick asked, surprised by Alexa's response."Well, yes. I do live alone, although sometimes I visit my parents' residence," Alexa said, and Derrick replied, "That'

Derrick looked at Miranda irritably, but for some unknown reason, he couldn't explain why he was troubled by the suspicion that Miranda might be pregnant, even though it was only his mother's speculation as to why Miranda was always sleeping."Well, if you say that you're fine, no problem. Juliet has already served my tea, and the doctor will be here at noon to examine you and determine what is wrong. So, you should prepare yourself," Lady Loretta spoke in a serious tone, as she couldn't trust Miranda's statement.'I cannot trust these young girls. What if Miranda had slept with one of the bodyguards?' Lady Loretta pondered, a deep frown settling on her face."Mom, I have told you not to bother yourself with all these maids. Getting a new replacement for them is the best option," Derrick said through gritted teeth. He was still finding it hard to believe he ended up dreaming about making love to Miranda. Looking at the maid in her brown dress, he noticed she wasn't wearing a bra, and h

Meanwhile, Derrick Luis was at his office after wrapping up a meeting with some clients. He contemplated whether to call Alexa as he sat in his executive chair, thinking about his request.'How do I ask Alexa out on a date? Isn't it too early?' Derrick thought as closing time approached. Just then, Gabriel Simon knocked on the door, and Derrick responded, "Enter."Gabriel opened the office door and stepped into Derrick's office, where the atmosphere was quiet."Good evening, Boss. I have an update about your request regarding the land you wanted to purchase in the local town," Gabriel disclosed to Derrick, who was seated quietly, listening."What about the land? Have you acquired it yet?" Derrick inquired. Gabriel shook his head and apologized, "I'm sorry, boss, but the agent refused to resell the land, stating that the owner wouldn't sell, even if we offered 100 million to them. They won't sell their land.""Damn it! What are those poor people thinking? I was trying to help the owner

Derrick returned to the mansion after meeting with his security personnel. His mother called him just before dinner was ready. "Derrick." He paused as he heard his mother calling him over to meet her on the couch."Mom, what's the matter?" Derrick asked as he finally approached his mother."I want to discuss something with you. Are you free now?" Lady Loretta asked, and Derrick replied, "Sure, Mom. What's it about?"Lady Loretta smiled and replied, "Well, I don't know if you will be free this upcoming Sunday. I would like you to accompany one of the maids to the hospital for her medical check-up."Lady Loretta appeared nervous after she said that. She saw Derrick narrow his eyes and frown as he replied, "Who usually accompanied them to the hospital before, Mom? I don't like any involvement with those maids.""I am aware," Lady Loretta said. "It's just that none of the maids have gone to the clinic before, but I want you to take Miranda there because she's unwell.""No, Mom. I cannot ac
