Chapter 171
As the words tumbled from Ruby's lips, Javier's heart soared, but he tempered his excitement, seeking clarification. "What did you just say?" he asked, his eyes locking onto hers with intense focus. Ruby's face lit up with a radiant smile as she repeated the words he longed to hear: "I said I love you, you fool!" Javier's restraint vanished, and he swept Ruby into his arms, his lips crashing down on hers in a passionate kiss. "And I love you more!" he exclaimed, his voice muffled between kisses. Overcome with joy, he lifted his head and declared, "You have no idea how happy you've made me! I've got my woman back!" His happy shout drew the attention of those around them, and Ruby's giggles turned to gentle cautions. "Javier, people are staring," she whispered, her cheeks flushing with delight. But Javier just grinned, unrepentant, his eyes shining with happiness as he gazed at Ruby. "Let them stare," he whispered back. "I'm the happiest man alive, and I want the world to know it!”

Wednesday night arrived, and Veronica was escorted out of her cell by the corrupt warden on duty. She was led to a secluded area where the others awaited, their faces shrouded in shadows. With haste, they thrust a wad of cash into her hands. "We'll be back before anyone notices," one of the women whispered, as the warden nodded and melted into the darkness. The group made their way to the restroom, where the leader revealed a hidden entrance by lifting the toilet, exposing a large hole. Veronica's face contorted in disgust. "You can't be serious. We're not escaping through this...this sewer, are we?" The leader's expression remained resolute. "I know it's not ideal, but there's no other way out. This is our only chance." Veronica's indignation grew. "This is unacceptable! You didn't warn me about this...this filth. You expect me, Veronica McLaren, to crawl through that?" Her voice dripped with disdain. The leader's tone turned stern. "If you're backing out, now's the time. But know

Days had passed since Veronica's daring escape from prison, and the police were still hot on her trail. Officers were stationed around her father's house, anticipating her potential return but there was nothing. Meanwhile, Javier and Ruby had received their trackers, cleverly disguised as everyday accessories. Ruby marvelled at the attention to detail, picking up a pendant with their intertwined initials, a replica of the necklace Javier had given her. "They really outdid themselves with these," she said, impressed. "I'll swap it back with our original necklace once this ordeal is over," she promised Javier, who nodded in understanding. —---------- Ruby poured her heart into every table setting, ensuring each glass sparkled and every utensil aligned perfectly. The soft hum of conversations and clinking dishes filled the air. As she delivered a steaming plate of pasta to table seven, Ruby couldn't shake the feeling of being watched. She scanned the area, her eyes darting between th

Javier burst through the police station doors, his heart racing with dread. He rushed to the front desk, his eyes scanning the room for help. "Please, I need to report a missing person," he urged, struggling to keep his voice steady. The officer behind the desk looked up, expression sympathetic. "Okay, sir, let's get some information. Who's missing?" "Ruby, my girlfriend," Javier replied, his hands shaking as he handed over his phone with the message. "She was supposed to come home from work hours ago, but she never showed up. I found this message, and when I tried to call her, she wasn't answering." The officer's expression turned sceptical as he read the message. "I understand your concern, sir, but this doesn't necessarily mean she's missing." Javier's frustration grew. "I'm telling you, she's in danger! A convict who's been threatening us just broke out of prison, and now Ruby's gone. She has a tracker, and her last location is a place she'd never normally go to. I need you to

Javier's grip on Ruby's hand tightened as he gazed lovingly at her fragile form on the hospital bed. Despite the progress she'd made, her face still bore a pale, wan complexion, and the bruises on her body lingered as a haunting reminder of her ordeal. As he tenderly adjusted the covers to ensure her comfort, Ruby's eyes fluttered open, and she weakly shrugged. "Ruby!" Javier exclaimed, his voice trembling with emotion as he leaned in closer, his face inches from hers. "Ruby, are you awake? Oh, thank God!" He breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes scanning hers for any sign of recognition or pain. Ruby's gaze slowly focused on Javier's face, and a faint smile played on her lips as she whispered, "Javier..." Her voice was barely audible, but it was enough to send a wave of joy and gratitude through his entire being. “I was stupid for not being with my phone at a crucial time. You must have felt alone and scared. I'm sorry” he apologised again. “No. I wasn't scared at all because I knew

Javier's eyes fluttered open to find Ruby's gentle hand wrapped around his arousal, sending a spark of surprise through his body. A warm smile spread across his face. "Good morning," he whispered, his voice husky with sleep. Ruby's soft whisper tickled his ear, "It's hard." She withdrew her hand, but Javier's eyes locked onto hers, filled with mischief. "Big man is extra hard today because you're here," he teased, lifting the duvet to glance at his erection. His eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled. "I think we might need your help with this situation." With a playful nudge, he guided Ruby's hand back to his arousal, his fingers intertwining with hers. His day has not fully started but he could tell it was going to be a great day with the way it started. “Then let's do something to it” “We are going to something to yours first. So get ready for a rollercoaster of pleasures” he whispered and made her sit in his laps. Ruby yelped when Javier ripped off her black lace lingerie s

Marco’s concerned expression caught Ruby off guard as he approached her. "Are you certain you're ready to return to work today?" he asked, his voice laced with empathy. Ruby's brow furrowed in confusion. "Why wouldn't I be?" Marcin's eyes softened. "Your boyfriend called us and shared what you've been through. We're all relieved you're safe, but he insisted that I let you take the time to fully recover. He even offered to pay anyone who covers your shift so you can focus on your well-being because the girls are definitely willing to do that for you" “Oh,I see. Thank you so much Marco”Ruby's heart swelled with gratitude, touched by Javier's thoughtful gesture. “But then,he could have told me instead of making me take a trip down here” she muttered to herself as she moved away from Marco As Ruby's colleagues escorted her to the changing room, their whispers turned into a chorus of excitement. "So, the hottest customer we have ever had,the guy we've all been gossiping about is actual

She was now back at the Company after working in a bar for months. She has returned to be the Secretary the CEO wanted. The only woman he wanted around was her,his woman.

As lunch break arrived, Javier's face lit up with anticipation. He smoothed his hair with his fingers and rose from his seat, eager to steal away Ruby with the excuse of going for lunch. But just as he opened the door and was about to invite her out, Mark piped up. "Are you heading to the cafeteria? I've heard great things about the food. Mind if I join you?" Mark asked, his innocence unaware of the underlying tension. Ruby's eyes flicked to Javier, her expression hesitant. “The cafeteria was a place she hadn't set foot in since becoming Javier's secretary "The cafeteria?" Ruby repeated, her tone laced with subtle surprise. Javier's smile faltered, his plans foiled by Mark's untimely suggestion. He silently began to pray that Ruby would turn him down and go out with him instead but his prayers became nothing when Ruby accepted. “Well, it's your first time,so I might as well show you around" “Miss Morris can I see…” he was cut off by Mark who was surprised to hear his voice
