Alle Kapitel von Mr CEO Is My Baby Daddy : Kapitel 31 – Kapitel 40

TRICIAWe got down and I grabbed the small picnic basket from the trunk to take with us.I bought our tickets and in no time we were inside, ready to start our day of mother_ daughter bonding.I found a spot first so we could have some snacks and energy drinks.I would be needing those if I was to take rides with Melody_ I was extremely scared of rides_ I wasn't sure how energy drinks were supposed to help but I was guessing I heard it somewhere.Of course, Melody wanted to ride the Ferris wheel first. She loved rides. I tried to hide how tense I was and let her enjoy herself.It was worth it to watch her excitement and see how much she was enjoying herself.By the time we got off the Ferris wheel, my heart was threatening to jump out.I still couldn't decide if I was just tense because I was just acting like an overprotective mother or if it was the fact that I was scared of rides _ I never got to go to the park a lot anyway _ but I should stop worrying about Melody getting hurt beca

TRICIAI never believed it when people said the universe was working against them. I always thought it was just a stupid excuse to blame someone else for their own laziness or mistakes.But I had officially reached a point in my life when I was thinking the universe was working against me.Why else would I have bumped into Damon last night of all nights in a random restaurant when I was with Melody who was supposed to be sick?I bumped into him that one time outside the supermarket _ which was close to the office by the way _ and since then never again.I should have driven away before he arrived or Melody could have gotten in the car and maybe he wouldn't have noticed her.I didn't have the luxury to stay lost in my thoughts or wonder if the universe was to blame _ which it wasn't _ I was doing exactly what I accused other people of doing.Blaming the universe for my own mistakes. It had been my fault when I chose to lie and took the lie even further.And there was the meeting I forg

DAMONI watched her go, and for a few seconds I wondered if I was making the right choice.I glanced at the time on my watch and realized Tricia had been right. Time had gone by real quick. I got up and grabbed my suit and put it back on, and then I grabbed my keys and phone and left the office.I might as well clock out early since I had nothing to do in the office. And it wasn't fun when I had no one to talk to.As I got out of the building, I saw Tricia getting into a cab. I should have offered her a ride home. That would give me someone to talk to for a few more minutes.‘You can talk to her all you want soon.’ I thought. I smiled. Yeah, we were getting married.It was crazy but what my dad was doing was crazier. He kept trying to set me up with girls. About a while ago, I got home and found a woman naked in my bed!And when I asked, she said my dad let her in and he didn't deny it. The old man was getting more creative and it pissed me the hell off.I threw the stupid lady out of

DAMONI stood out in the veranda of my room long after dinner sipping wine — a different wine — and letting my thoughts roam.I normally didn't like to. I was always fighting back the thoughts in my head because if I didn't, they always led me back to Rose.And I hated it. I hated that I couldn't stop thinking about her, even after so many years.And the guilt…it was overwhelming. There was always the reminder of how I hurt her. It was all my fault. If only I hadn't seen so goddamn stupid, the accident would never have happened and she would still be here.I shut my eyes, already feeling a bit drowsy after having so much wine. But as usual, Rose’s bloodied face haunted me.I opened my eyes with an angry sigh, frustration choking me. I turned and hauled the glass of wine inside the room.It hit the wall and splashed wine all over the pristine white walls and the glass shattered to the floor.“Fuck. You're a dick, Damon.” I murmured as I dragged my hand through my hair.I would have to

TRICIAI couldn't stop worrying about Damon’s meeting with the client who chewed me out yesterday.I had no idea how Damon was going to deal with it, since he didn't fire me. Was he going to lie and say he did?When he texted asking for his next meeting, nothing in his tone said the meeting hadn't gone well. He would have said so and taken the opportunity to berate me again. Right?But then from what I knew about Damon, he didn't seem like the type to bear a grudge, right?Not right. I knew absolutely nothing about him except that he was rude and had a bit of a sense of humor.I smiled as I remembered the way he laughed unabashedly at my joke when I offered him concealer as he was leaving.It was exhilarating to think I made Damon laugh. Why did he look like he didn't get enough sleep though?Or was I too perceptive? How did I even notice that? Was up all night wondering how to fix the mess I made by forgetting a meeting with a potential client?I grimaced and increased my typing pace
