Kai's POVI turn around and notice that Raine is not with us. Romano looks at me and also realizes her absence. "Where did Secretary Annie go?" he asks.I just smile and reassure him, "Don't worry about her. She's always diligent at work. She probably went to the washroom for a moment," I replied.He opens the door for me and we enter. As he chats away, I pretend to listen, but it's been thirty minutes, and my wife still hasn't arrived.Romano stands up after checking the time and apologizes, "I'm sorry, Sir Aki. I'll go ahead. I have things to do and I'm sorry for bothering you too much."I force a smile and reply, "Don't worry about it. Keep working hard."He smiles and leaves my office. I immediately grab my phone and dial Raine's number. Why isn't she answering me? It's not even ringing!Then it hits me to search every corner of the office for wiretaps or hidden cameras. I recalled the message Walter sent me this morning, advising me on how to check for potential spies.After wait
Raine's POVI have some information about the person that the woman was discussing. I quickly grab my phone and show her the email. Glancing at her ID, I realize that she’s one of the interns named Alyssa Cruz."Please! I was the one who sent that email because I want to protect my sister from those…" she paused, tears welling up in her eyes.I search for a handkerchief, but I don’t have one. My husband opens the glove box and hands me a tissue. I pass it to her and she continues crying uncontrollably.It seems like she knows about the difficulties her sister faced while working here. "Share the details when you feel ready to talk," I say.Secretly, I turn on the camera on my phone. The necklace I was wearing had a nanocamera. I asked Macey to get one of these from El Greco Tech Enterprise. This will record our conversation.After a few minutes, she started to calm down. “What happened, Alyssa?” I inquire. She nervously fidgets with her fingers, showing her reluctance to answer my que
Kai's POVMy heart is racing and my body feels warm. I'm becoming more sensitive to everything, especially Raine's warmth, scent, and touch, which arouse me.Damn that air purifier! She looks incredibly sexy when she makes that 'shh' gesture. Pushing me against the counter, she stands in front of me and sighs."This will be quick," she whispers. I close my eyes as she puts up her hair. I know what she's about to do. My wife unbuckles my belt and unzips my pants. She realizes how stiff I am."You don't have to do this if you're uncomfortable and—ahh!" I moan, covering my lips to control the sound.This familiar warmth and touch, she's the best at giving me head. I look at her as she licks my cock down to my balls. Her fingertips caress the dimple of my penis. Her expression is so sexy that I can't take my eyes off her. I grab her head and meet her eyes."I'm sorry, Raine. I want more," I said, as I pushed into her mouth.I could feel myself reaching the back of her throat, and it felt
Raine's POVAs I woke up, I realized that Kai wasn't by my side. I got up and yawned, feeling bad because he had to carry me inside the car, where I fell asleep. I know I'm quite heavy.After getting up, I decided to wash my face, as I can't sleep wearing my makeup. I noticed that the sheets of our bed were all white, and I knew I would only create problems for our maids.As I was walking towards the bathroom, I heard Kai's voice from the balcony. I was about to approach him when I was taken aback by what I heard.Kai responded to the caller, "We need to ensure that our plans proceed without any hitches. Failure is not an option. I married Raine El Greco to conceal my identity and ensure that everything goes according to our wishes. If we have to resort to underhanded tactics, then so be it. I am unconcerned with anything else."I covered my lips and concealed myself against the wall. I was relieved that he didn't notice or hear my footsteps. What is he talking about?I pull back the
Kai's POVI was taken aback by her behavior last night and it continues to surprise me. It seems like she's afraid of me, as she startles and becomes jumpy whenever I try to touch her, which I didn't anticipate.Feeling offended, I had no choice but to leave the car. I thought I wouldn't be affected, especially when Walter teased me about my wife.He claimed to have seen me with Raine while secretly protecting Allison at EGBC. My cousin mentioned that I looked at her the way a man looks at a woman he loves.I denied it and even lied about divorcing Raine in the end. As soon as we entered the building, the employees in the lobby bowed their heads.I knew they were here and I was worried because of the police that had arrived. They greeted her, "Greetings to chairwoman Raine!"She then addressed everyone, instructing them to turn on all the television screens to watch her announcement. "Good morning, everyone. Just watch for my announcement," Raine said."Understood, chairwoman," they a
Raine's POVI still feel afraid, but I need to find the courage to face him without fear. I want to be able to smile at him without any hint of trembling in my spine.I think carefully before responding. "You have the potential to be a CEO, Kai Montefalcon, rather than just an actor or an idol," I said firmly, despite his blank expression. I have to play my part perfectly. I have to do it.."Macey may seem intimidating, but she can assist you. I'm flying to London tomorrow to take care of some matters on my farm. I'll be in London for three days and then in Columbia for two days. I'll return in six days and I hope to hear good news from you despite today's chaos," I remark and smile.I walk away and draw back the curtain, gazing at the skyscrapers ahead. This era seems so familiar to me. I feel like nothing really changes on this year except for my identity and surname.Kai sighed as he sat on the edge of the table. "If that's what you want, then good luck with your trip abroad. I'll
Kai's POVI had a tiring day and I just want to drown my sorrows in a drink. My two cousins, who are siblings, looked at me with surprise."Did something happen at work, George?" Walter inquired.George took a sip of his whiskey and let out a deep sigh. "Just a case of lovesickness. Let's drink with him. He needs to pass out, or else we'll be the first ones to fall asleep," George remarked.Walter sighed and poured another shot of whiskey into my glass. I downed it as if it were just water. "Lovesick? Me? Did you forget who I am, George? Hah!" I scoffed at what I had heard.I threw the glass again, and George handed me another one. I signaled to Walter to pour another shot. "Looks like my little brother was right. You're clearly showing signs," Walter said.I slouch on the couch and fold my arms, letting out a laugh. “She should’ve called me back! I ignored her call once, but it's been seven hours and she still hasn't called again! That woman!” I vented. I feel incredibly frustrated r
emotional barrier I had put up was no longer there. Ultimately, I decided to follow my heart's desires instead of heeding my rational thoughts. I couldn't resist it - I am in love with him. That's why I am willing to deceive myself."I'm heading out to teach them a lesson. I had planned to act oblivious and hesitant. Let's test the truth behind the staff's alleged racism. After that, I will meet with the head of the union for the rally," I declared. It's already three in the afternoon here in London."Best of luck then. Come back home as soon as you can, alright? I want to celebrate our first month together," Kai remarked. His words caught me off guard."Celebrating a first month together? Isn't that a bit cliché? I mean... I'm sorry. I've never actually done something like that," I admitted quietly.I could hear his gentle laughter on the other end. Swallowing my pride the previous night was worth it. "I want to celebrate with my wife. It's my first time marking such an occasion," he
