CHAOTIC LOVE-The CEO's worst nightmare. のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Dalisay's pov: I paced around the living room, thinking of the best way to tell my husband about my planned trip that weekend. Karl had usually let me travel on my regular vacations without any restrictions, but for some reason, this one made me feel a little uneasy. Perhaps because it was a weekend time-out with Adam and it was our first time traveling on a vacation together. Karl was in the bathroom when I finally worked up the nerve to enter our bedroom. I sighed and took a seat on the bed. He left his phone on the bed, and a few minutes later it rang. "Honey, your phone is ringing," I said as I sat on the bed. My attention was drawn to the caller identifier. "Papi" was the caller's saved name, complete with heart emoticons. I looked at the phone questioningly and stepped closer, but the ringing stopped. "Was that my phone?" Karl asked from the restroom."Yes, Honey," I turned to face the bed as the phone started ringing once more. The caller was the same person. I was

Judith's pov. I paced around my office as I thought about the best way to approach Maxwell. He had walked past me that morning. Although, he pretended like He didn't see me. I thought about approaching him then but he kept a straight face and walked quickly without paying any attention like he knew what I was thinking. After I told Amihan everything that had happened between us the day before, she asked me to apologize to Maxwell. Despite not knowing him, she chastised me for the way I had behaved. I was starting to think about what she had said about me taking a vacation from my work. I was hurting from my separation from Jake, and Maxwell had been unlucky to meet me at just this moment. I heaved a deep sigh as my mind wandered. What if apologizing to him right now was a bad idea being that I had offended him the previous day? He might still be upset and end up snubbing me. I thought about giving him more time. Would that not make things worse and make him feel I was sincere

Judith's pov. After my last encounter with Maxwell, I made up my mind to be distant from him and never give him a second glance. I had purposefully ignored him as he passed my office area that morning. He seemed astonished, but I could also see he didn't mind. The CEO had given my responsibilities to a lower-ranking employee that Friday to make up for the stress I had endured with Maxwell, so I had less work to accomplish that Friday. The fact that Maxwell had not been racing around like he usually did made me believe he had been granted the same liberty. Not that he was assigned challenging assignments the way he made them seem by exaggerating how busy he looked. He had fewer responsibilities than other lower staff members and was always given preference by the CEO, making him his favorite. An opportunity that should have been saved for distinguished employees was presented to Maxwell on a silver platter without any prior experience.When my phone rang, I went for it in my bag

Maxwell's Pov. As I moved into my new apartment all I wanted was for the day to end so I would see Amihan once more. Even though I was exhausted from the work I had done that day, I didn't mind, all I wanted was to see her and the sooner we got acquainted the better it would be for my family. I beamed immediately after she forwarded a message with the address where we would be meeting and I hurriedly freshened up as I wanted to arrive a few minutes before her. The moment, Amihan arrived I was dumbfounded by how beautiful she was, with her white top in her purple miniskirt and pencil heels,"You look amazing," I said with a broad smile."Thank you," she replied. For a few moments, we were engrossed in one another's sight, I couldn't believe such a beaut had accepted to go out on a date with me and couldn't wait to have numerous dates with her as my girlfriend soon. "You got an amazing eye too," I said staring at her beautiful eyes, watching an involuntarily smile curve on he

Judith's pov. The moment I walked into the restaurant where I was to meet Mrs. Celia I sighed as I didn't know what to expect. I was still holding out hope that it was all a dream and that I had been confused for someone else or that it was all just a hoax. I have lived all my life and accepted the fact that my biological parents would never come for me since they didn't all these years I was in the orphanage. Even though I would have loved to have a family then, it was the same now, Amihan and sister Rose are more than enough family for me since they have never let me feel alone. "Hello Judith Parker," Mrs Cecilia greeted and hugged me as soon as I approached her. She was a beautiful lady in her late thirties with blonde hair. "Please do have your seat," she said as I sat down. I noticed the gentleman across our table was with her and when she saw how curious I looked she planted my hands, "There's nothing to be afraid about, That one of your dad's security. He had assi
