Being With Mr. CEO (book 2) (12) Tried and Failed
Xavier's POV I watch silently as she removes the sleek phone from her ear. Rolling her eyes, she stuff it in her bag then swing it on her arm in one swift motion. I bite my tongue harshly trying to not recall what almost transpired between us a few seconds ago. I'm very grateful for that phonecall; even though I have some sort of self-control another second and there's no telling what could have happened. My neck and face feels flushed as fuck just thinking about it; I can feel beads of sweat roll from my neck down my Armani suit. I wanted to kiss her badly but I ain't touching her until she begs me to. "I have to go and I am resigning," Zoey's clipped tone snaps me out of my thoughts. I plop back down on the chair watching as she slip on her other shoe. Without another word she sashays out the door leaving me by myself in her office. Groaning in defeat, I rest my face in my hot hands. "Fuck. Fuck. Fuck!" I breath out as I contract every muscle in my body to try and refrain from
Being With Mr. CEO (book 2) (13) Sandwiches and Talks
Zoey's POV "Yeah, I'll be there tomorrow," I say to Tracy who is on the other end of the call. Realizing how stupid I was being ealier I called her a few minutes ago to explain my abrupt absence today. I told her that I had preferred to work from home, which is not entirely a lie plus I'm not ready to disclose my planned resignation just yet. I have to find a whole other job first. "Thanks, goodbye." "So?" Jaz ask as she sip water from the huge plastic cup. We're currently sitting at a small quiet coffee shop not too far from the hospital Ethan works at. "According to her she had no idea the company was even sold until he came in this morning. Apparently some shareholder twin whatnot sold their part of the company to Xavier," I say before munching on my cheese sandwich. I moan lowly, enjoying the spicy cheese and crunchy bread that melts in my mouth. She makes a stank face at the mention of Xavier before fanning me off, "Per favore. I'm not talking about Mr. Big Bucks, I'm taking
Being With Mr. CEO (book 2) (14) His Truth
Xavier's POV The next day "I think this concludes the meeting for today." Tracy announce gaining everyone's attention at the table. Her shiny black straight hair bounce off her small shoulders as she stands. "Our lawyers will read through so we'll get back to you on that. In the meantime I'll call a meeting today to correctly inform the staff and give them a heads up," she sticks out a manicured hand towards me. "Xavier," "Tracy," I briefly shake her hand giving her a small smile which she returns. The rest of the board rises from their seats talking amongst themselves. "Good to see you again," "Same here," "I guess we'll be partners soon enough, huh?" "Can't wait for that," she lets out a awkward laugh before moving on to shake my lawyer's hand. Excusing herself Tracy joins the other men and women who are talking amongst themselves. She's obviously not too thrilled about the possible partnership but that's something she'll just have to deal with. I tuck my hands in my suit poc
Being With Mr. CEO (book 2) (15) N*****x and Dad Talks
Zoey's POV I prop my aching feet up on the footstool, my tired eyes lazily stare over at the large tv embedded on the opposite wall. The bright screen blur as my drosey mind wander back to the impromptu staff meeting today. I never even got a chance to tell Tracy that next week is probably the last week that I'll be working for her, for Stephen Enterprises. I really want to give her a heads up before I turn in that damn resignation letter, just haven't gotten around to do that yet. I've worked at that place for around four years, that's four long years of me putting in enormous amount of work to help keep the company afloat. As they say though, all good things must come to an end. It truly will be a bittersweet moment if I choose to quit. My stomach churn uncomfortably just thinking about it, I haven't even start looking elsewhere yet. I stiffle a yawn placing the back of my cool hand against my hot mouth. You know I'm not taking over the company right? It's just a partnership, I
Being With Mr. CEO (book 2) (16) Family Apologies and Expensive Gifts
Xavier's POVThe next dayMy fingers hug the smooth steering wheel of the sleek rental car. The melodic music that is emitting from the speaker gradually fade in the background and the very back of my mind, all I can think about is seeing my son. How will he feel about me? Does he know the truth? Does he hate me? I glimpse at the passenger seat. All the stuff I bought online yesterday is scattered all over the seat and the black car carpet. I didn't even have time to arrange them properly, I just threw them all in this morning. It would be a waste of time anyway since they would most likely fall off onto the car's floor. I shift uncomfortably in the leather seat, the phone call I got from Zoey earlier replays back in my head. The only thing she told me was that he was willing to see me followed by an address in Long Beach. I glance over at the GPS swallowing nervously as I inch nearer to my destination. I don't even have any plans for us today, as soon as I got the call I just too
Being With Mr. CEO (book 2) (17) A Xavier Free Night
Zoey's POV "So Xavier Danvers huh?" I hear Ethan mumble. Despite him trying to keep his voice at a neutral tone, I can still hear the subtle hint of distaste wooven in his words, even in the heavy traffic chaos he is currently trying to maneuver through. Instinctively, I swallow. Heat slowly creep up my spine despite the cool ac that is blasting out of the air vents. Quick flashes of Ty and Xavier chatting from earlier fill my mind. Tyler had been eagerly showing his father all evening, the simple game he had managed to finish create a few days ago. We had both shared a laugh at how enthusiastic the kid was... I bite my bottom lip to keep the joyful memories a bay. "I already told you..." I begin, but my words trail off into a dry gulp. Turning my gaze from the bright city lights, I face him. His features glow under the dim light of the car, especially the obvious tick in his jaw. "I know," Ethan cuts me off with a sigh. He glance at me and curl his lips in a sincere smile, "and I
Being With Mr. CEO (book 2) (18) Anniversary and Nightmare
Xavier's POV "Mom," I sigh pinching the bridge of my nose as I glance over at Tyler's sleeping form. His covers rise and fall indicating that he is indeed asleep. The little guy must be tired. "Look, I am exhausted as it is. I don't need this too." "Xavier you have to be here for your father's death anniversary tomorrow," she says in a stern tone. Boy, I can literally feel her irritation through the God damn phone. "What are you doing out in LA so long? Have you forgotten about it?!" "No I haven't," how can I? I heave a heavy sigh feeling drained as fuck. "I am sorting out some things mother. I will be there as soon as I can. I have to go now. See you tomorrow.""You better be here, I am not playing with you boy," I roll my eyes at that. Fuck, now she's the strict parent. "and I love you son." "I love you too mom," with that I hang up and place the phone beside the car key on the small desk that I am currently sitting before. A selfie of our last family gathering flash on the scree
Being With Mr. CEO (book 2) (19) Sleep Over and Gossip Blogs
Xavier's POV "I am sorry about your dad," Zoey says to which I heave a long sigh. This is the last thing I want to talk about. I shiver involuntarily as small goosebumps prickle the surface of my tattooed arms. The realistic nightmare from earlier still haunt me even now. It's replaying itself over and over again in my head on a sick endless loop. It doesn't help at all that the man's birthday was suppose to be tomorrow. My heart clench painfully tugging at the fragile strings in my chest, the tragic scene from that day briefly flash itself in my mind. "My condolences," "It's fine," I lie. My shoulders slouch in a poor attempt of a shrug. The pain in my chest hits me over again tenfold, the corner of my eyes crinkle threatening to leak a wave of fresh tears. It has been two years and this shit still affects me this much. I shake my head silently refusing to let any fall. Instead I focus on the back of Zoey's head so I don't trip and tumble on her over these steep stairs. "Thank you
