CHAPTER 11: THE DISTRACTION I THOUGHT I NEEDED.JACK'S POV.The maid got down on her knees as she picked up the plates that had fallen, clattering upon impact with the floor. I was stunned to see that part of her left boob had slid out of her maid's uniform. I gulped as I glanced at it. Why the heck was I not looking away? Was it because it was perky and firm? Was it because I hadn't had sex in a really long while? I froze, staring at the maid's boob. 'But wait a minute. Why were they out in the first place? Her uniform is supposed to be buttoned to the collar.' This thought helped snap me out of my momentary daze as I looked away, clearing my throat. But I had observed a mild smile creep up her face briefly."Oh my! I'm so sorry, sir. I was so clumsy," she said as she picked up the broken pieces. "It's alright," I replied, lacking the boldness to look in her direction. "Please, let me go get something to clean up this mess I've made," she said as she quickly headed out of my room

CHAPTER 10: DARING APPROACH.JACK'S POV.I was officially done with my first day as President of the Rosker Group. It indeed was quite a day, not just for me, but for a lot of folks. I was driven home by the same men who accompanied me to the headquarters. They were going to be my personal bodyguards. They were handpicked by my Dad, so I trusted his judgement, for the time being, anyway. I made a mental note to have them changed soon.We arrived at the villa, and I exited the car as one of the men opened the door. As I walked in, I met my father in the living room, sitting in his favorite chair, the old rocking chair I grew up seeing him use most evenings. Although I had scarcely seen him use it during the past two weeks since I returned."Hey, son," he greeted. He seemed to be in a cheerful mood. "Hey, Dad," I greeted in response as I sat down sighing, setting my bag beside me."Quite a day, huh?" "Ugh! Tell me about it," I remarked. "You shook quite a number of things, didn't y

CHAPTER 9: A FRIEND INDEED. Jessica sat in her for a bit, unable to head out of the Rosker Group Headquarters, not for inability to do so, but because of the pain of disappointment. With her hand gripping her hair, she welled up with grief. Unable to hold it in, she screamed and slammed the steering wheel of her car multiple times, causing the horn to blare with every impact.The few people around were startled and wondered what the matter was with her. Of course, some assumed she was straight-up crazy, while others were concerned about her. With her head bent, she began sobbing lightly before she broke down, placing her head in her hands as she held on to the steering wheel. "What have I done? How did I not know who he was?" she lamented. Oh, she knew she had shot herself in the leg. After a while, she pulled herself together, sighing as she wiped her tears. Starting her car, she drove off, heading straight to her office. Arriving there, the atmosphere was as gloomy as she looke

He responded with a mild smile, walking to the head of the table and sitting down.By virtue of his position as the President of Rosker Group, he was the chairman of the board. Having set the file on the table, Genevieve sat beside Jack. Jack sighed and looked at the board members, who comprised nine men and three women, all people of notoriety in their own regard."Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. If I recall correctly, I met everyone seated here yesterday during the inauguration. It's nice to finally meet the folks I'll be working with henceforth," Jack began his address. "As we get to interact and address issues to

CHAPTER 7: UNWANTED VISITATIONS.Jerking awake with a gasp, Jessica scrunched her face as a pounding sensation flooded her head. After a few seconds, it subsided, giving her some calm.She sighed, looking around as she felt a bit dizzy still, but she recognized that she was in her room. She got up, stumbling her way to her bathroom, and washed her face in the sink. With the water still running memories of the previous night flooded her head, disrupting the momentary peace she had as she woke up. She looked down at the running water as negative thoughts invaded her mind. She suddenly gasped as she was startled, turning to the door. "Hey. Are you okay? How are you feeling?" Michael asked, looking concerned. " I-I'm fine," she replied, then looked away. Michael walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. "You're still bummed out from yesterday, huh? We all are. And you're hungover. I made you my grandma's special soup. It works like magic for hangovers." "That was tho

CHAPTER 6: NEW DAY, NEW REALITY.Jessica was home, fast asleep on the couch in her living room. She felt a touch and was stunned, jerking awake. She looked around to see what touched her. "Hey, Jess." "Michael?" she said, squinting her eyes. Yawning, she stretched herself."You didn't tell anyone you were leaving, nor were you answering your calls. You had us all worried." "Like anyone cares," she snorted sluggishly. "That should be the least of anyone's worries right now."Shrugging aside their concern, she stood up. To her, it was petty. She staggered as she got up, falling back on the couch. "Whoa! Are you alright?" Michael asked as he rushed to her. She was smitten by a slight migraine, causing her to scrunch her face."I'm fine. Just, leave me alone," she said, pushing him off of her as she got up again. But Michael held her nevertheless, supporting her as he saw she was dazed."Gosh. You reek of alcohol," Michael noted, but there was no bottle or glass of alcohol lying aroun
