"Mr Hawk!?," Someone exclaimed again. "How come you are here?" Everyone turned to the director that uttered these words. It was the same pot bellied director that's been supporting Miles this whole time. They all cast suspicious glances at him and he realized what he had said. "What do you mean? Can I not be here?," Mr Hawk questioned as he entered the conference room in long, confident strides. "No! No, that's not what I mean," The director hurriedly denied and tried to reframe his words. "You have never shown up at any of the board meetings so I was naturally surprised to see you like I'm sure others are too." The room nodded with agreement. Mr Hawk smiled and picked a seat casually. "Carry on. I am not disturbing your activity, am i? I'm only slightly upset that no one informed me of such an important voting session." As he said this, his eyes trailed to Leo again. The latter was already watching him so their eyes collided. They shared a smile that didn't reach either of t

Jake subtly moved an inch closer to listen to the conversation and unknowingly bent low. "I already informed them. Dad knows I'm here but he doesn't know the reason. I just wanna make sure you are really fine as you claim to be." Jake's eyes widened when he heard the familiar pleasant voice. Valerie? Valerie is in San Francisco? "I already told you that I'm fine. Send the name of the hotel you lodged in to me. I'll visit you as soon as I'm through with my workload," Leo didn't notice Jake eavesdropping. He had even forgotten about the latter's presence. "I'm not at any hotel. I changed my mind. Father has a small villa here that is barely used. I'll send the address to you. Come over as soon as you can," Her voice lowered with each word, sounding sultry to one's ears. Jake suddenly felt aggrieved. He is the one clearly engaged but why is it the boss that's enjoying a sensual relationship like this? "Sure," Leo's reply was short. The phone went silent and Jake stood

Leo ignored the curious looks he got at the company as he walked to the elevator while carrying Heaven in his arms. A team of bodyguards were following behind him. "OMG! Is that our Ceo!?," One of the employees whispered. "I never thought I'd get to see the Ceo carry a lady in his arms. I always thought that perhaps that thing wasn't working well." This comment garnered a lot of gasps. "Better make sure that word doesn't get to the Ceo. This should be able to tell you that he's straight and not what you think. How could you even imply that he's sterile?" "He'd have your head on his table if he hears that!" "But she didn't lie... She was only speaking the truth. Our Ceo has always shown great contempt for any close contact with a female so what else were you expecting us to think?" "I don't care what you guys say. He'll always be my dream guy. Haa! I have to take a picture of this moment and cherish it forever." The bodyguards swept the place with their cold gazes an

"Then turn around and leave. I'm giving you twenty minutes to come back here with our lunch," Leo's tone left no room for argument. Jake grumbled lowly and turned around. As the door closed behind him, Heaven gave Leo a discerning look. "You shouldn't treat him like he's your servant. Show some respect. He should be older than you " Leo chuckled,"Did he complain? I'm not treating him like a servant. He's my friend." Heaven didn't reply to this. She simply looked around the office and then stared at the desktop on his desk. "Can I borrow this for some minutes?," She pointed at them. Leo looked at her and then nodded. He brought out his phone and just then, a picture came in. It was from Valerie. When he clicked on it, he realized that it was a picture of the dishes she has prepared for him. Noting that Leo was paying no attention to her, she walked to his system and went to the browser. Typing out a website, she inputted the log in details and as soon as she was logged

'Relax... Relax everyone. I'm perfectly fine. I just took a break for a few days. No need to worry so much and if you have an important message for me, send it to my inbox privately.' Heaven sat back on the swiveling chair after she had sent this message. I'm left reeling in shock. Is Heaven the boss lady they are referring to? 'Boss, take a look at this. This is what the client wants but— It's so difficult to get the appropriate design,' someone sent a message to Heaven, replying privately to the one she sent to the group. Heaven looked closely at the blueprint. I can't see anything on the screen except a pale white background with a few lines on it. Heaven moved her hands on the mouse and clicked on the cursor. The screen gradually began to bring out the theme of whatever picture it is. Just a few minutes later, I'm astounded at what I'm seeing. It seems to be the layout design of a lounge or is it a restaurant if I'm not wrong. It's a beautiful royal blue color desi
