The members of the board meeting believed everything Cosmos said about Chris becoming the next CEO. He distributed the documents with the Chairman's signature and Chris's signature to every member seated. They all flipped through the papers, their eyes staring hard at each part of the paperwork."The man does have a similar look to the chairman and the chairman told us beforehand that there'll be a meeting regarding the new CEO and that's why we're all gathered here." A man from the board of directors said."Of course. The chairman isn't in the country and every single detail about the meeting will be sent to him so we need to handle everything with care." Cosmos said firmly."Why don't he introduce himself?"On hearing that, Chris almost lost it, he was too nervous to face these people with stern-looking faces. His anxiety became clear to Cosmos and he can't let the meeting go on without Chris not introducing himself. That was necessary. He gave Chris a reassuring smile and pulled him

Chris couldn't believe what just came out of Cosmos's mouth. How could Cosmos be amongst the past CEO of his grandfather's company when they weren't even related by blood and if so why didn't he continue with the CEO task other than for them to hand it over to him? A whirlwind of thoughts clouded his mind as he couldn't keep his gaze off Cosmos who was standing in front of him, leaning on the cupboard. The more he kept staring at his face, the more bothersome he became. What were they hiding from him? What didn't he know? Chris was set to not only grant his mother's last wish but to unveil the chairman's secret and past doings."Young master, my face might end up having a hole if you keep staring," Cosmos said with a firm look on his face."Oh," Chris shifted his gaze away from him. "I didn't realize."Cosmos understood the expression on Chris's face. "Young master you don't need to be worried about how I first became RIC CORPORATION CEO. The chairman was desperate since he hadn't loc
On getting to the mansion, Chris sighted Yue Wang waiting outside on a chilly day. He hurried out of the car once it was parked and rushed to meet her, removing his jacket and placing it around her shoulders. "Let's go inside, it's cold.""I was waiting for you." She said as she turned to face her.Chris noticed she was shivering and held her by her shoulder as they headed inside. Cosmos stood still and watched them leave, he took his phone and took a picture of their backside before he followed them from behind.Meanwhile, Chris arranged for Yue Wang to sit close to the chimney. "It'll be winter any moment from now so keep yourself warm." He stood, trying to leave but she held his arm stopping him from leaving."Stay with me, Christopher." She muttered.Chris sighed as she sat beside her on the floor. "How can I be of service?" Yue Wang placed her head on his shoulder, closing her eyes as she savored her moment with him. "Let's talk about your mother. I think now will be a great ti
Back in the hospital, Larry held onto a clean wet towel, wiping the sweat out of Liana's face as she lay still on the hospital bed. Larry tended to be careful while he wiped the beads of sweat that formed on her forehead and shook his head while he examined her pale skin."You've become skinny." He said exhaling as he finished with his task, keeping the towel on top of a cupboard as he sat beside her on the bed.Liana sighed, she barely had the strength to speak and her voice was barely above a whisper. "Water." She muttered under her breath.Larry took a bottle of water and handed it over to her, with her trembling hands she was able to help herself, gulping them slowly down her throat as Larry gazed at her pitifully.When she was done, he kept the bottle of water beside him in case she needed it again."You look quite pitiful, I was scared to detach that I might lose you." He said removing the strand of hair that fell on her face. Her rubbed her numb lips with his thumb as he felt h
Immediately Liana left Larry seated in the sitting room, she headed straight to her room to freshen up only to find Richard seated on her bed, holding a newspaper.Liana stood frozen at the sight of him. What was he doing in her house? Her maid didn't even tell her beforehand or while she came. She gritted her teeth, clenching her fist beside her but she had to relax since she was still due for recovery.She cleared her throat to make her presence known to him. The moment he raised his head above the newspaper to look at her, a smile plastered on his face."Good to see you're fine." Richard closed the newspaper and placed it beside him on the bed. "I heard you'd be discharged today so I had to come see you myself." He said standing up as he walked towards her."You shouldn't have come, why do you care?" Liana asked, clutching onto her clothes from beside her.Richard stopped in his tracks, his eyes rolling around the room as if looking for something before it fell back to her. "This i
Some weeks passed and the chairman couldn't be contacted. Yue Wang was left disappointed about her failed marriage with the chairman while Christopher officially became CEO and resumed his duties.He left his office to take a tour around the company even after Coldie had shown him around, he wanted to tour around by himself. The staff couldn't keep him out of their sight as they marveled about how charming and manly his appearance was and were glad he was their CEO since they could get a sight of him all the time.Christopher didn't fail to notice the stares on him and whenever he turned to face them, they'd shift their gaze immediately, pretending to be working. A small chuckle escaped as he walked towards the secretary whose heartbeat accelerated at the sight of Chris and with the fact he was approaching her, her breath hitched.He placed his arms on her desk, his gaze not leaving hers and he turned to examine every one of the workers. "Why are they few?""The others aren't back fro
After a long day at the office, Chris forgot it was past work time and forgot about his meeting with Cosmos to take him home. He heaved a sigh and checked his wristwatch only to find out it was evening already.He arranged the few documents remaining for him to sign and walked out of the office only to find his newly appointed secretary waiting for him outside his office a smile flashed on her face immediately after she caught sight of him."It's past work time, why are you still here?" Chris asked, raising his brow as he checked his watch to know if he was mistaken or not.The secretary smiled nervously, tucking her hair at the back of her ears. "I was waiting for you to finish, sir." "Oh." Chris was quite pleased by her commitment to work as he let out a small smile. "Why don't I give you a ride home?""I'll be grateful sir." She said excitedly.Chris nodded in response and walked out of her presence. The latter stood there happily, jumping excitedly before following him from behin
