A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 18: The Kiss
We got to the reserved suite and waited for almost twenty minutes before the client finally arrived. The delay was already getting on my nerves. I hated waiting, especially when we had cleared our schedules just for this meeting.The moment Mr. Haven stepped into the room, dressed in an expensive gray suit and carrying himself like he owned the entire city, I knew he was one of those clients.‘The difficult type.’The type that enjoyed making people work twice as hard for a simple yes.After the introductions were exchanged, we got straight to business.Celina confidently presented the design she had spent days perfecting. Every detail was carefully explained, from the colors to the structure and branding concept. She spoke with confidence, her eyes focused entirely on the client.I sat quietly beside her, occasionally glancing at her.She looked beautiful when she was passionate about her work.For a moment, I forgot we were in a business meeting."We love the design. No doubt about
A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 17: Imaginary kiss
Bryan Drake’s POV I looked at her through the tinted glass as she walked toward the car–her wine-colored corporate top tucked neatly into a black pencil skirt that hugged her figure just enough to make my throat tighten. The sun caught in her hair, giving it a faint sheen, softening the sharpness of her expression. She looked composed, confident… and utterly unaware of the effect she had on me.I shouldn’t have noticed. But I did. I couldn’t help it.Earlier that morning, while adjusting my tie for the third time, I’d caught my reflection in the mirror and said something I probably shouldn’t have.“I have to look sharp for her,” I’d muttered, more to myself than to anyone else.But my driver had heard. He always did.He chuckled under his breath. “If you like her, sir, tell her.”I’d ignored him. Pretended not to hear. How could I possibly explain what I couldn’t even define myself?She was an employee. A junior designer. Someone who’d walked into my company, and somehow, my head–wit
A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 16: The call
Saturday.No work. No drama. Thank God.For once, the sun wasn’t dragging me out of bed to face gossip, deadlines, or fake smiles. The house was quiet except for the distant hum of my mother’s radio in the kitchen. She was getting ready for work again. I honestly didn’t understand how she managed to still show up every day, considering the Banks family she worked for were halfway across the world enjoying Dubai’s luxury.Naomi and her mother, Mrs. Banks, were probably swimming in gold right now. I could almost picture them laughing by the poolside, wearing matching sunglasses, sipping something expensive.And I was very sure whose money they were spending. Mr. Bryan’s.That man had money, no doubt about it. But at least if I were in Naomi’s position–if I somehow got to date a man like him. I wouldn’t spend his money so carelessly. I’d respect him. Treat him like someone more than a wallet.“Date him?” My mother’s voice cut through my thoughts, full of disbelief.I blinked and turned.
A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 15: The Boss's Offer
The room was frozen in silence.He stood right beside her, his grip firm, his expression unreadable. The tension in his jaw was clear, the sharpness in his eyes enough to silence everyone.“Have you lost your mind?” His voice was low but cut through the room like a blade.The secretary’s confidence melted instantly. She tried to speak, but the words stuck in her throat. “Sir… I…I was just–”“Just what?” His tone hardened. “You think this is a market square where you can raise your hands on your colleague?”The air felt heavy, suffocating. No one dared to breathe. Even Fred, who had just returned with the others, stood by the door looking stunned. His eyes darted between me, the boss, and the secretary–confusion and disbelief written all over his face.“I…” she stammered, lowering her gaze.“Apologize,” he said coldly.She blinked. “Sir?”“Now.”Her voice trembled as she turned to me. “I’m sorry,” she whispered.I couldn’t respond. My heart was still pounding too fast, my palms clammy.
A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 14: Office Clash 2
Just when I thought the drama was finally over, she walked toward me again. That same smug look painted across her face. Her heels clicked sharply against the tiled floor, echoing through the office like a countdown to chaos.“The boss said you should design this,” she said, stretching out a file toward me.I frowned, hesitating. She wasn’t my senior designer. In fact, she wasn’t even in my department. So why was she the one delivering the boss’s order?Something didn’t feel right.Still, I reached out to take the file from her. She held it tighter, her fingers clinging to the edge like it was her lifeline. I tried to pull again, gently at first, but she didn’t let go. My patience thinned. I tugged harder this time….too hard.Her hand suddenly slipped free.Before I could steady myself, my balance gave way, and I landed flat on the floor with a loud thud. Pain shot through my wrist, and embarrassment burned hotter than the sting of the fall.The office went silent for a heartbeat.I c
A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 13: The Office Clash
The next morning, I got to the office early. The air was still cool, the kind that carried the smell of fresh mop water and newly brewed coffee. The security guard at the gate smiled lazily, his eyes still heavy with sleep.“Good morning, ma,” he greeted."Morning,” I said, forcing a smile as I signed in. My hand trembled slightly, though I pretended not to notice. My stomach twisted. Maybe from nerves, maybe from hunger. I’d barely slept last night. Every time I closed my eyes, the same thoughts returned–him. The man from that night. His voice, his touch, his face. All tangled with shame and confusion.I sighed quietly as I walked through the hallway, heels clicking against the tiled floor. The building smelled like air freshener, and for a second, I almost felt normal. Almost.I was heading toward my desk when a sharp voice stopped me at the doorway.“Celina,” the secretary said, blocking my path.She was standing with her arms crossed, her perfume thick enough to sting my nose. She
A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 5: Mum is back
“Hey, you. Stand up.”That was the voice that dragged me out of sleep. I opened my eyes slowly. My head felt heavy, like I hadn’t slept in days. I blinked up at Naomi, who was already fully dressed, standing by the edge of the bed with a blank look on her face.I turned slightly on the bed, and tha
A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 4: The Night that changed Everything
When he pushed a finger inside me, I stiffened–the pain was sharp, immediate, unfamiliar.His brow creased. “You’re tense.”No response. I couldn’t give one. If I spoke, I would break.“You’re wet,” he whispered a second later, as if that comforted him. As if it meant we were in this together.You

Why are you late?” he slurred, rubbing his eyes. “You said… you were going to the bathroom.”I froze. My lips parted but no words came. Naomi’s instructions rang in my head…Don’t speak. Not a word. Let him think you’re me.His gaze dropped to my dress, the same black silk Naomi had handed me an hou
A Night with Mr Bryan Chapter 2: The Bargain
Mrs. Banks’ living room was like a palace. White marble floors, glass chandeliers dripping light, and couches that looked too expensive to sit on. I stood there, my palms sweaty, my heart pounding.Her eyes bored into me like I was a stain on her perfect floor.“Your mother,” Mrs. Banks said, her t
