STONE HEARTED C.E.O 24 Visiting in-laws
I couldn't wait to get out of this room. I want to hide somewhere I'm least likely to be spotted. I'm sick of pretending to be a normal wife. Because the truth is that I'm a last minute bride. That will always be my identity."So let us go into voting process", said Renee."Ok. Since Irene and Hana had already left but put out their votes as positive we just have us. I vote positive", said André."Me too", said Renée.I don't know what Heidi would have done in my place. Maybe she will just be like Irene and Hana. But she is a little better than them. I don't know if I'm objective since she is my sister. But I knew one thing she would have been accepted here like she belonged here. Unlike me who had forced my way inside to the world of rich people."Ziva it is your turn", called Renée. I was being called back to the present. I looked at them and found pity in their eyes. I don't need their pity. I can take care of myself. I had been doing it for a long period of time. Even if I'm not f
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 25 Crashing the night
"I remember that time when I caught him with his girl of the time. He was like stop disturbing us mom. The poor girl was so embarrassed I took her home", said his mom rolling her eyes."Mom that is not exactly a funny or embarrassing story at all", said Dane leaning back on his chair."I know the way you go through the woman is exactly the number of paper towels I use in the kitchen. I was scared for you. I thought you never find love", she said with a sad smile."But he did and he married her", said Tom sipping his beer."Yes and it made me happiest woman in the world", said Linda."Good for you mother because I don't want you to worry about me and lose your hair", he said with a smirk."You are annoying boy reminding an old woman of her falling hair", said his mother not seriously."I'm going to get another beer", excused my husband.I watched him go confused. Why hadn't he denied the fact that he married for love? He didn't do it for love. He did it because he wanted a child. The w
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 26 La la land
"That is True honey. He had left us right after he turned seventeen. So this is our chance to make up with him for not giving him appropriate bed", said his mother covering her face. "You left because of the bed?", I asked. They laughed in response. I felt embarrassed. I knew I should have kept my mouth shut. Why was I always saying things that came to my head without thinking."Forgive me. That is not the reason. I guess he didn't want to follow the rules. We had a brief rift. We wanted him to finish school but he was adamant on starting his company early. I know what you might think of us. We regret that to this day", said Linda softly.Frankly I couldn't fault them. Imagine their shock when your kid doesn't want to finish school. Opting out of college was fine but not finishing school was appalling."How could you just leave without finishing the school?", I asked him in awe. I would never have done something like that."I know what I want to do. They were not teaching any helpfu
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 27 Reality
I was woken up by someone and there was a faint smell of coffee. I opened my eyes gently. I saw my mother in law smiling down at me. I sat up immediately. I have slept very late sometime early in the morning. I don't know if my husband slept at all. I heard the sound of laptop clicking away the entire time. I cried and cried silently but didn't once turn over to him. I knew I could find no support in him only accusation of not doing what he wants. I know he hates me. I hate myself too because I was so weak and pathetic to keep feelings and sex separate.If I could have I would have had sex with him. But I don't know if I ever could. I'm not that kind of person."Dane is already up and is adamant about going right away. He sent me to know whether you want to sleep in or follow him", she said kindly."No I'm up. I will go", I said already jumping from the bed."Sorry you must be tired. My son keeps early hours none of our family has that trait . Not even my mother in law from hell. May
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 28 Flash back
He is leaving right now. I'm still sitting here in my room. My tears had dried. But I dare not to see him before he goes or I'm afraid I will fall apart. He is going away breaking my heart to be with my sister. My whole body had gone numb thinking about it. I know the minute he board flight to Hawai it will be over. What ever unfinished business we had between us will end. What I want to do was hold him so tight and never let go. The question is why? But I'm afraid of the answer. I know that the first time I ever saw Dane I felt something deep in my chest come alive. It didn't matter to me that I was in a relationship. I didn't care that he was with my sister. I don't know what it was? I didn't even know him then. It was as if he was mine. We barely spoke but I crushed on him. In the lonely nights, my fingers seeked pleasure with his face on mind. Dane was the name that slipped from me when I cried out my release.Is this madness called love? If yes I will never be cured. The last ti
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 29 Out of sight but never out of mind
When I reached at my work place I was greeted by our overworked receptionist. I gave her a weak smile. I had the proposal in my hand. I didn't have ta laptop which was an issue. But I'm thinking of borrowing one from Janine I saw her using one. As of now I have no time to do it. So here I'm with a handwritten proposal and hoping they like it. I'm sure Irene or Hana would never accept it willingly but I can at least try. The work was my excuse to get away from problems and miseries.I was the first one to join this time. Slowly our small committee had come to life. Irene came really late but I didn't call her on it becoming a bigger person. I'm showing her how it is done. But she might think that may be because I was a coward which is kind of True too. All in all I want this to be a fresh start. Let bygones be bygones."So what's on today's agenda?", asked Irene in a bored tone."I have made a mini proposal. It is my first time. So I just wanted to get a good grasp of things first, if
STONE HEARTED C.E.O Gratitude 30
I had always loved surprises but never received one. Receiving a surprise gift from Dane was surreal for me. I was relieved that I don't have to beg for laptops anymore neither would I be insulted for not having one. Could he give me anything sweeter? I was so much aggravated by him earlier but it was as though I had been calmed. Is it because of the gift? Probably yes but not only because of it. For me most important thing is that he remembered to get me one irrespective of his busy schedule. I would have forgotten if I were in his position. Giving me a gift implies only thing that I'm in his mind just as he was in mine.I wanted to thank him. But I don't know how? I quickly call Charlie. She thankfully answers me. Sometimes she had this nasty habit of digital detox and she stops touching the phone all of a sudden."Hi girl", she chirped from the other end."Hey Charlie. Are you busy? I need a quick advice", I said to her."Why? What happened? You never needed my advice before. Have y
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 31 Mine
I couldn't believe what had happened? I had bared myself to Dane. I didn't even try to resist him for a second. Why would I do that? But I knew the answer. I missed him and I was willing to risk it all just to catch a glimpse of interest in him. I had seen it in fact much more. I saw the desire blazing in those blue eyes like an ocean battling a storm. I laid on the bed and wondering what was Dane doing? Could he be pleasuring himself. I considered doing it too. But realising that it will give me seldom satisfaction especially when I know the face and arms I want to lose myself. I want Dane's fingers on me intimately touching and pleasuring me. Anything else will only be a process which I'm not interested.I didn't try to video call him again. I know it was too much for both of us. I wanted to get over this week so we can finally be with each other with out any pressures from outside.I'm waiting for the next week like an impatient school girl for her vacation. I was singing and gett
