Mission to Wealth Chapter 40
On that evening, Gibson was on the villa's terrace, gazing at the night sky. The slightly chilly air didn't require him to wear a jacket or sweater; he was accustomed to this mild nighttime cold. Gibson's mind was filled with the complexities of his life, reflecting on all the experiences that had brought him to this point, to a house that wasn't his.Gibson, a diligent and hardworking man, often found himself working tirelessly just to stay afloat in a fiercely competitive company. He navigated a workplace filled with backstabbing and duplicity, where his position as an ordinary employee was frequently threatened. However, his dedication earned him the trust of his superiors, allowing him to attend events outside the office and, in the process, making him a target for many of his colleagues.Initially, everyone treated him kindly and began to see Gibson as a friend rather than an adversary. But it turned out that it was all a facade. They only sought to exploit his innocence, as he c

Gibson was disturbed by Calista's recent inquisitiveness about him. It might be due to Gibson's somewhat distant demeanor towards Calista, but she shouldn't be so persistent in her questioning.Gibson remained silent for a while, growing frustrated with Calista's probing questions. Eventually, he chose not to respond and redirected the conversation."Come inside, you might catch a cold if you stay out too long in thin clothing like that," Gibson said as he walked into the house.Clearly, Calista was disappointed by Gibson's lack of openness. Gibson decided to retreat to his room and sat on the edge of the bed.Gibson continued to brood and contemplate his revenge against Hans, his former manager who had betrayed him and had an affair with Kiara. It not only destroyed his marriage but also cost him his job. His life was in ruins due to Hans, who not only stole Kiara but also his livelihood."What should I do? Should I investigate his corruption? I'm sure he'll hide the evidence well. S

Fingers appeared, tracing the contours of Gibson's six-pack abdomen, startling him. He felt the warmth of Calista's petite body hugging him from behind. The scent of soap and perfume clued Gibson in on the identity of the person embracing him."What are you doing?" Gibson asked, attempting to free himself from Calista's embrace."Let go of my stomach," Gibson said again as Calista tightened her grip on him."Just be still for a moment like this," Calista said in a soft voice, but Gibson didn't comply and continued to try to release Calista's hold."Can't you stay still for a minute? I'm sure your mind isn't in a good place right now," Calista said, bringing Gibson to a halt.Gibson stopped resisting, releasing Calista's hand and letting it hang in the air, waiting for what Calista would say next."Tonight is too cold, isn't it? Why are you outside alone like this? Are you... thinking about something?" Calista asked, curiosity filling her voice.Gibson again felt uncomfortable with Cal

Gibson felt something beginning to spread throughout his entire body. The passion he hadn't felt in a long time was now awakening, taking control of his sanity. His hands embraced Calista's small waist and pulled her closer to his body, eliminating the distance between them.Calista, caught up in the moment, responded to Gibson's kiss. Initially, Gibson was surprised because he hadn't expected Calista to reciprocate. He hesitated, thinking that Calista might be angry with him and slap his cheek for his impulsive behavior. However, what Calista did at that moment shattered Gibson's expectations, and he continued his kiss, channeling the rising desire that was surging through him. His other hand gently caressed Calista's back.Calista savored the kiss, causing her to wince. The considerable height difference between them made Calista slightly strained from tilting her head too much, and Gibson had to bend down further. However, Calista's attraction to Gibson's touch prompted her to rise

The next morning, a pair of intertwined legs were visible beneath a thick blanket. Both of them seemed deeply asleep, exhausted from the battle the night before. Their clothes lay scattered on the floor, and some of Gibson's furniture had been moved from its original place.The sun began to rise slowly, with the melodious chirping of birds waking someone from their slumber. The sweet sound of the birds seemed quite nearby. The balcony door, left ajar, allowed the lively chirping to resonate clearly.The balcony floor appeared wet due to the rain that had fallen overnight. The curtains covering the balcony windows couldn't escape the splashes from the rather heavy rain. It was still quite a challenge for the pair to get up after their eventful night.However, the morning breeze was chilly, causing Calista to be the first to awaken from her deep sleep. Slowly, Calista opened her eyes and gazed at the unfamiliar ceiling. She recognized her room's girly ceiling, quite different from the p

Calista and Gibson walked downstairs together. They appeared quite awkward, constantly stealing glances at each other. The awkwardness nearly caused Calista, who was walking ahead, to stumble on the stairs due to her own feet. Fortunately, Gibson's reflexes kicked in, and he grabbed her hand, bringing them closer.Calista widened her eyes as their faces got so close. She could even feel Gibson's breath on her face. Calista's heart was racing too fast. Her eyes kept staring into Gibson's, and she couldn't control her feelings, which were now fixated on Gibson's lips.Lips that were so sensual and captivating. They made Calista blush and feel a warmth throughout her body. So much so that Calista leaned in, and their lips were just inches away from each other."Are you okay?" Gibson asked, snapping Calista out of her trance."What? Uh, I'm fine," Calista replied nervously and pulled away from Gibson. She quickly continued walking downstairs.Calista felt extremely embarrassed by her inab
