All Chapters of CONTRACTED TO MY BILLIONAIRE PLAYBOY BOSS : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Ethan's POV “Alexia please hurry up! We are going to be late!” I yelled as I stood beside my car impatiently waiting for Alexia to come out of the house “I just need a minute, I am almost done” she yelled back at me. That was the exact answer she gave 10 minutes ago. How long does it really take a woman to dress the fuck up. A glance at my wrist watch shows the time is 4:30pm and the Company’s end of the year party commencing at 5:00pm prompt, we barely have 30 minutes to get there. It's been two months since my father walked into my office to break the news that the CEO position wasn't going to automatically pass to me as I earlier thought, but that Kenneth was also being considered. Within these two months I have worked tirelessly, day and night to ensure I get all the projects I pitched for. Since I stopped sharing my main ideas with my project team, none of my ideas have fallen into the hands of our competition, consequently, I have had more contracts executed to my great reli

Ethan's POV I walk to the podium reeling from shock. I can't believe Dad still made me the CEO after all the hassle.“Dad!” I said with a voice filled with emotions as I covered the short distance between us. He immediately opened his hands wide for a hug, which in itself was a surprise. My father is not one to display affection freely in public.“I'm proud of you, son. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect son” Dad said as soon I stepped into his arms. This was the first time my father had commended me since I started working in the company. It's always been from one complaint to another about something he feels doesn't quite meet his expectations. The fact that he openly commended me in the presence of this multitude, I certainly won't forget this moment.“Thank you, Dad, this means a lot to me” He gives me a pat on the shoulder before pulling away. He handed the microphone to me before stepping down from the podium. I allowed the applause at his descent to subside before addres

Alexia’s POV “I love you,” Ethan said when our dance slowed to a more relaxed pace. I blinked at him in shock as those three words clang and resonated through the whole of my being. I know he alluded to it when he invited me to the podium, but a part of me believed it was all for show.“I love you with every fiber of my being and I want to say thank you for showing me what love is.” He gazed at me with so much intensity. I could see the emotions shining through those gorgeous eyes of his and all I wanted to do was get lost in this feeling.“I love you too Ethan” I confessed. His smile widened at my confession.“Stop smirking!” I chided him playfully. “There is no need to be embarrassed about admitting your feelings to your ‘head over heels in love with your’ husband” He gives me a knowing look that has me itching to slap the smugness of his face. The fact that we are not alone and people may misinterpret it as us fighting, had me reining in the urge. “So, I have been thinking….” Et

Ethan's POV It's been two long weeks since the party. The same party where I got the CEO position and also lost the most important person in my life. A lot of things happened that night, but what has kept me on edge is the fact that I hurt Alexia so terribly, I can't even imagine the pain she is currently in right now. Two weeks since I last saw Alexia! Two weeks of trying to lose myself in work in order to escape the mess I have placed myself in My brooding gaze didn't stray from the monitor even as my father walked into my office after knocking on the door. This is the first time he is knocking before entering my office. I noticed this listlessly. Dad doesn't usually knock before entering my office. I guess being the CEO has certain perks after all.“Good morning Dad” I greeted him as he took the seat adjacent to mine.He arched an eyebrow at me. “It's past 2:00 pm, in the afternoon Ethan” “Sorry about that, I lost track of time.” That is my customized excuse when in all honesty

Alexia’s POV The ride from the hospital back to Stacey's was froth with tension. Jeff, who had stayed outside the hospital and so didn't know what the cause of the tension was, alternated between gazing at me from the rearview mirror and shooting Stacey a worried look. Stacey and I ignored his inquisitive look. There is no way I am telling him what the test result said. If I did that, Ethan would be here before I could say Jack. “I'm terminating it.” I said immediately Stacey and I stepped into her apartment and shut her door behind us. I paced the length of the living room as I tried to make sense of the whole thing. “I think you should calm down before making any rash decision.” Stacey advised as she went to sit on the couch. Easy for her to say. it's not her life that is in a mess right now. “What other options do I have?” I said whirling around to face her with a panicked look. “The doctor said I am four weeks pregnant! How is that even possible? How can I be pregnant?” I wh
