Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 38: The unexpected.
I gradually got used to the rhythm of life here. It's a bit boring, but it makes me feel at peace.This morning, at work, I received some news. An event company hired all the employees to come and cater for an upcoming party, which excited everyone. I heard the director re-communicate that this is a party held on a large scale, so the layout needs to be diverse. And they liked the design of the restaurant where I worked, so they hired us. All costs incurred are covered by that company."I haven't been back to New York in a long time. I don't know if anything has changed." A colleague of mine spoke up. "How did they know about our restaurant?""Ah, I post recent photos of the restaurant and Diana's posts on social media. The engagement is quite high."I was startled when I heard them mention New York; every time I heard that name, my heart ached because that place was associated with my pain, especially with someone I once loved."Diana, even though you're only a part-time employee, yo
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 39: Crazy night.
I jumped, my body shaking, when I heard Steven call my name. I don't know how he was able to recognize me even though I was careful to hide my face. I clutched onto Karla's shirt to contain my panic."General manager, I think you shouldn't do that."Karla remained calm; he said as Steven wanted to pull the vest down to confirm whether it was me. Karla hugged me tightly in her chest, trying to hide my face."I just wanted to confirm if your employee is Diana." Steven's voice turned cold."If she's not the one you're looking for, what will you do? Your actions mislead people into thinking we're fighting for a girl." Karla reminded.A few minutes passed, and Steven still did not speak, but everyone around was still talking about me. They were curious, after all, what kind of person is the girl Diana that Steven mentioned. He kept squeezing my hand and then releasing it; I felt like he was holding on to me, or it was a feeling of regret that he couldn't know precisely if the girl in Karla
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 40: Because I know you are always the only one in my heart
Steven pressed me against the door; he locked me in his lap so I couldn't move. He leans down to kiss me, but I quickly turn my face away, avoiding his kiss. I can't make myself make any more mistakes."Steven, stop it! Yesterday was an incident. I…."Steven didn't let me finish my sentence; he grabbed my face and kissed me madly. He seemed to suck all the air out of me, making me almost suffocate. I used all my strength to push Steven away from me. I shouted angrily:"Steven, stop doing that. We can't go back to the way we were before. Do you understand?"Even though I was trying to be cool, he still approached me lovingly and hugged me; he said softly, "Why? Who allowed you to terminate this relationship without my consent arbitrarily?"I lifted my head to look up, meeting his sparkling blue eyes with a gentleness that made my heart flutter. I can't deny Steven's charming charm. I held my face in my hands and sighed sadly."She…your fiancée…I can't think only of myself and cause her
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 41: What's going on?
Steven and I fell in love repeatedly until I had to beg for him to stop. He is like a wild animal that has been starved for a long time, and when food is in front of him, he can't control it and eats it wildly. Of the two of us, only I lost all my strength.After two days in a lavish mansion in the suburbs, Steven took me back to New York City. He informed me that, on the night of the party, Sunwell Corporation selected the three best restaurants to sign a contract with, including where I worked. Although I am pleased about this, I feel uncomfortable. I hesitated to ask:"Steven…if I wasn't related to Skyline, would you choose?"He looked at me and then laughed and said calmly: "Do you think I chose Skyline because of you? From the beginning, I gave conditions based on the criteria and evaluation of customers. And Skyline is the highest rated of the three. Whether you are there or not has nothing to do with the contract signing this time."Steven reaches out, caressing my lips; his ga

I saw Steven's face go white. He slowly picked up the document, staring at it as if he was hesitating whether to read it. My heart began to beat fast; my heart rate became irregular. This feeling I seem to have experienced.I remember when I went to find my mother at Charles's casino. The men there looked at me with the wild gaze of a wolf. Kirk was the one who made fun of me, and the others started teasing me. At that time, they were going to rape a 16-year-old me. I cried out in terror and helplessness at their hideous laughter. Thinking I would die there, I seemed to pass out from the panic. But a little luck smiled on me; a woman saved me. I'm sure it wasn't my mother. She was like a savior, a guardian angel of mine, who saved me from that disgusting place. To save me, she injured her shoulder. To this day, I still don't know her face. Because at that time, everything in front of my eyes was blurry. When I woke up, I was in the hospital, and I hadn't seen her since to say thank yo
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 43: My great true love.
Steven took me to a quiet place. Although I have been in this town for almost two months, I never knew there was such a beautiful street here. If in autumn, this road will definitely be gorgeous."Have you been to this place before?" I took the initiative to speak, breaking the silence.Steven stopped the car and parked in a position overlooking the lake. He looked into the distance, his eyebrows furrowed with an exhausted face. Steven raised his hand to his forehead, rubbed his temples, and sighed heavily. He seemed to have something to say to me but couldn't.He shook his head, his voice low, "This is my first time here, and I happened to pass by this place. You've never been here before?"I bit my lip and shook my head in response. Since coming here, my life has been repetitive, going to work and home. I didn't dare to let myself have any privacy because then my heart and thoughts were always thinking of Steven. So I don't have time to go to places like this."Diana, why don't you
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 44: Steven's Past
The following day, Steven and I went to the Skyline restaurant to sign the contract. I didn't want to let people know that we were together last night, so I suggested that Steven leave first and I'll come later. I think Steven will disagree because he is the one who wants to make this relationship public more than ever. However, Steven immediately agreed without asking me why I did it. I know that he respects my opinion.Even so, I told him why I hid my relationship with Steven from my colleagues. I don't want to make him feel insecure or make Steven feel as disrespected as he did when he was in love with Calliope.After we had breakfast together, I saw Steven off to the car. He kissed my forehead and said, "We look like a newlywed couple. Wake up together, eat together, sleep together, and always have you waiting for me when I come home from work."I never thought about this because it was so far away for me. But when I heard these things from Steven's own mouth, a surge of hope and
Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO Chap 45: His lovely jealousy
On the way to Skyline, Zelda and I talked a lot. She told me about the wrong things Calliope had done when she was Steven's lover. I think her haughty, contemptuous nature is due to her being pampered since childhood. I wish Calliope weren't my father's biological son. And I can't share with Zelda that she and I are half-sisters. It's shameful.Zelda really wanted to know how Steven met me, and I told her my story. Her expression changed dramatically, from surprise to horror. It took a while for her to calm down.Zelda looked at me with eyes of compassion and understanding and hesitantly said, "Steven…he…maybe he was…not such a mean person."I smiled and explained:"Oh, yes. I know. I know why Steven did this to me. Anyway, all misunderstandings have been resolved. Of course, I'll still be heartbroken and a little annoyed when I think back on all that. But now Steven has given all his love to me to make up for it. This is enough to make me happy. At first, I still doubted Steven's fee
