A Plaything For CEO Blackwood The Fire outbreak
“Ann, What do you mean? What are you talking about?’ Mr. Blackwood asked in confusion. He was still trying to get a hang of what she was saying? How does he fit into any of this?“Don’t pretend with me, you did this, didn’t you? You set my house on fire!” she blatantly accused.Mr. Blackwood was shocked and completely lost. “What? Why would you even think that?” he queried, the surprise written all over his place, he had not seen this coming.“Because it is obvious, you invite me out for dinner and coincidentally my house is on fire, no electric malfunctions, no lit fires inside but a raging fire suddenly breaks out at my apartment while I am away. Admit you did this in your desperation to have me come back to you.” She fired at him.“Anna, that is a very foolish thing to think, let alone say it out loud. I would never do something like that, is this really what you think of me?” Maxwell uttered the disappointment very audibly in his tone.“Don’t try to gaslight me, we both know you w
A Plaything For CEO Blackwood The Culprit is Found
** Anna’s POV **Showing up at the office today might have been a big mistake, thanks to last night, I could barely concentrate the whole day. Aside from the swollen eyes from crying and lack of sleep, I was having a headache and regretting most of the things I had said last night.Now to worsen my problem, the phone was endlessly ringing. It was Mr. Blackwood on the line, he had been calling me for the past two hours but I didn’t want to answer. I have no idea what to say to him after everything that happened between us last night.I wasn’t in a good place last night but I should not have said the things I said to Maxwell. Even if there is a chance that I was right with the accusations, I still think I overstepped but I wouldn’t bring myself to admit it before him.Mr. Blackwood was right, this pregnancy is doing stupid things to me, but how do I explain to him without letting the cat out of the bag? Like every other time I have faced a problem, my first instinct is to run from it.A
A Plaything For CEO Blackwood More bad news
** Omniscient Narrator **Anna took a few steps closer to Jimmy, the tears pooling in her eyes. “Tell me it is not true, Jimmy. You didn’t do it, did you?” She begged for reassurance, she was just finding it difficult to believe that the man she had willingly shared her bed with for so many months would try to take everything away from her; a man she loved with everything in her.Jimmy scoffed as he looked up at her. “That is your problem Anna, you are always having so much faith in humanity, always trusting blindly, always trying to be the bigger person, the saint, seeing the light in everyone, but you are not just being naïve, you are being a very big fool.” He spat at her.Annabel couldn’t believe that he said those words to her, she shook her head in regret. How she wished she never met this guy, let alone share her whole life with him.“Maybe I was wrong about you all along, you are not different from the rest of them out there, you are just a thug and opportunist, and you are
A Plaything For CEO Blackwood Truth Exposed?
After spending hours at the office, Mr. Blackwood drove Anna back to his house. This time around, it was her idea. She had pleaded to stay with him for a few days because Jenny was leaving town again tonight and she didn’t want to stay in Jenny’s house alone.Arriving at the multimillion dollar mansion, Anna couldn’t help but notice that everywhere was more quiet than usual, although it was night already but not even the chirping of crickets could be heard.“Where is everyone?” she asked in a whisper as she looked out the car window.“Oh, I gave them a break earlier today, except the cleaners, they would be away for a whole week.” He responded.“Oh,” she mouthed. “What about your mother?” she asked in a cracked voice.“Mom… The last time you were here, perhaps you remember her promising to return to Mr. Forbes,” he said, carefully evading the word father.“Ah, that is true.” Anna smiled as she thought back to that iconic dinner with OG Forbes, not something you forget in a hurry.Max
A Plaything For CEO Blackwood Rebounding after the fall out
Sunlight shone through the half-opened curtains, reflecting on the soft carpet of the beautiful bedroom. Anna stretched her body on the bed with her eyes still closed, and the unfamiliar comfort of the large bed sank into her bones. Last night felt like a dream but the soft sheets and light jasmine smell told her it was real.She opened her eyes and slowly sat up, looking around the room for a better view. She never thought she'd spend the night at a billionaire's house, let alone in a room that looked and felt like a royal apartment.As Anna got up, she immediately thought back to last night when she had felt that her secret was out but it was not MB in the room, it was the vacuum machine that had fallen to the floor, one of the maids must have left it behind.She got up and went into the bathroom, she didn’t come with a brush so she just had to rinse her mouth with water and wash her face as well, then she walked to the exit, hovering her hand over the shiny brass knob as she left.
A Plaything For CEO Blackwood Craving his attention
“Oh my! You must have taken the Doctor’s instructions a bit too seriously.” Maxwell chuckled as he lifted her up in his arms.“Are you saying that I am fat?” Anna frowned as she hung her arm around his neck.“Huh? No! No! I am just saying that you have grown heavy.” He smiled.“That is the same thing,” she grumbled, feigning anger.“Come on, don’t be like that.” He laughed as he headed for the door.Anna clung to his body, staring at his face as he climbed up the stairs. He was more handsome than she remembered tonight, or maybe it was just her.“If you keep looking at me like that, I might stumble.” He said with a little smile while avoiding eye contact with her.Annabel blushed. “Just be going!” she whined like a baby. She enjoyed being in his strong arms but that was just the tip of the iceberg from the things she expected tonight.As he walked through the hallway and past his bedroom door, Annabel shot a mean glare at him, but she said nothing. Why was he planning to keep her far
A Plaything For CEO Blackwood The letter from prison
The elevator doors sighed open, revealing a gleaming expanse of glass and chrome that mirrored the steely resolve in Jennifer's eyes. Grumbling under her breath about having to wear formal clothes, she smoothed down the neat blue blouse that felt more like a costume than professional attire. Today was her first day as the sales executive in her father's tech company, a position she'd begrudgingly accepted.The elevator soon reached her floor and she didn’t even wait for it to open fully before she squeezed her tiny self out, but as she stepped out, files clutched under her arm, she bumped right into someone in the hallway and the files went flying off her arms.It was Marshall, the infuriating son of her father's best friend, who he had appointed as product manager – the third highest position in the company. A position, she felt, rightfully belonged to her, not just for her qualifications, but for her birthright. But her father, old-fashioned and subtly biased towards women holding t
A Plaything For CEO Blackwood The truth is out!
Anna was shocked when she heard him read that, how did Jimmy know that she was pregnant? Or was he just bluffing? What if he did this just to plant doubt in Maxwell’s heart and cause a rift between them?There were so many thoughts going through her mind at the same time and she had no idea what to do. Should she deny it? But at what cost, he would easily believe her if she said she wasn’t carrying a child but then what? She would have ruined all chances for a future together because the pregnancy will be visible sooner than later.“Max, I…” she tried to speak but he signaled her to hold on.“Wait, there is more.” He muttered and then continued reading from the paper. “You must be wondering how I know about your pregnancy, well I found your test results in your Waste Basket before I set your house on fire, believe me now?” Maxwell read out loud, then he lowered his gaze at her.Annabel felt her legs shaking inside the water, she was scared to her bones and unprepared for this conversa
