The love of a Mr. CEO

36



I woke up to the sound of talking but decided to listen.

“How long do I have to be gone for” Ivan said sounding highly irritated. I don’t try to make out the other voice and instead wait for Ivan’s response.

“Fine but if I feel even the slightest amount of disrespect the deal is off” Ivan says huffing after the phone ends. I move around a bit before opening my eyes and pretending to have just woken up.

“Mia cara, did I wake you” he asks apologetically and I smile while shaking my head.

“It’s fine, I usually wake up around this time anyway” I assure him and he nods distractedly.

“Is something bothering you” I ask while sitting up causing Ivan’s gaze to fall on my chest. His expression darkens and I look at him confused before following his gaze. Blushing, I pull up the sheets to cover my bare chest causing him to groan.

“Why must you be such a tease, Amelia” he asks clearly frustrated.

“Not my fault everything I do seems to turn you on, sounds to me like you’ve got a bit of a problem” I sass adding a devious smirk to the end. He shakes his head with a smile before getting up to go to the bathroom. I attempt to get up but fall back on the bed once the soreness kicks in. I groan at the discomfort causing Ivan to smirk once he understands my situation.

“I forget how small you are compared to me and can’t control myself when making love to you” he replies cheekily while coming back to lift me up. I blush and hide my face into his bare chest causing him to chuckle.

“You’re adorable when you blush” he tells me further increasing my embarrassment.

“Shut up” I respond not having anything else to say. He sets me down in the bath tub and steps in behind me while turning on the hot water.

We spent the entire shower washing each other while stealing kisses every now and then. Ivan stepped out of the shower and grabbed each of us towels to dry ourselves. The soreness was very faint but I could definitely feel it there. We walked back into the room together and quickly got dressed knowing fully well about the busy day ahead of us.

“Do you want anything to eat sweetheart” Ivan asked as he rummaged through the fridge.

“I’m good for now thanks babe” I respond while putting on my heels. I stood up and flattened my dress while Ivan stuffed his face like an animal.

“You know for a world renown businessman I’d figure you’d eat more politely instead of like a caveman” I joke while staring at his stuffed mouth.

“Good thing you’re the only one I act like a caveman around” he flirts after swallowing his food adding a wink at the end.

“I’m pretty sure your employees would beg to differ” I dismiss giggling at his crestfallen face.

“Damn babe, no need to be so rough” he adds jokingly and I shake my head.

“I’m gonna drive my car to work and I’ll meet you there” I tell him while walking towards the door. Seconds later I’m pushed up against the wall causing me to gasp in surprise.

“Why don’t you take the limo with me and I’ll have my chauffeur drive your car back to your apartment” he whispers into my ear while teasingly running the tip of his nose across my neck. I shiver but nod completely dazed suddenly not wanting to go to work.

He grabs my hand to usher me out the door and towards his limo. I give the chauffeur a quick smile to which he returns before sliding into the vehicle. Ivan gets in right after and the driver shuts the door before running over to the driver’s seat. We pull off the curb and begin our ride to Stone Industries.

We got to work 15 minutes later and as I was getting out of the car, Ivan grabs my arm.

“Isn’t there something you’re forgetting” he asks and I tilt my head is slight confusion.

“Not that I know of” I answer and he frowns before jutting his lips out causing me to laugh. I lean over and quickly peck his lips before stepping out of the limo. I speed walk towards the building, completely ignoring Ivan’s attempts at getting my attention. Walking into the lobby I make my way towards the cafeteria instantly spotting Connor. Guilt begins to creep into my body at how detached I’ve been from my friends. I shake it off and tap his shoulder causing him to turn around. His eyes instantly light up in excitement and seconds later I’m engulfed into a massive hug.

“Oh Amelia, I’ve missed you so much” he confesses causing me to giggle.

“There won’t be much of me left if you continue to squeeze my fragile body” I choke at causing him to release me immediately.

“Sorry bout that chica, it’s just I haven’t seen you since you went off with Mr. Stone to that meeting” he explains and the guilt hits me hard at his saddened expression.

“I’ve been a shitty friend lately-” I begin but he cuts me off.

“Yeah no kidding” he says causing me to punch his arm lightly.

“As I was saying, I realize I’ve been a shitty friend so what do you say we got out and have fun” I ask hoping my attempt works.

“Sure thing babe but we’re going to a club so dress sexy” he says winking and I punch his arm even harder.

“Jesus woman, my arm is gonna fall off if you don’t stop your assault” he snaps rubbing his arm.

“I’ll stop punching you when you’re done making inappropriate comments” I nag playfully and he grins at me.

“I’ve really missed hanging out Amelia” he repeats and I open my arms to embrace him yet again.

“If you don’t quit it, I’ll start crying because of guilt” I mutter into his chest causing him to chuckle. We breakaway from each other and I straighten out my dress.

“Which is why I better see you at the club tonight” he replies pointedly and I nod.

“Is it ok if I bring a friend” I ask hoping I could play matchmaker between Connor and Sierra.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“Just so long as she’s as hot as you than go ahead” he responds flirtatiously and I punch him for the third time before walking away.

“See you tonight Amelia” he shouts and I shake my head with a smile before getting into the elevator. I get off at the top floor and walk into the office to see Ivan on the phone. He holds his finger up to me and I nod while walking over to my desk to put my things down. I don’t bother listening to their conversation and instead decide on checking my emails. I respond to a few about an upcoming meeting before Ivan gets off the phone.
