Miss CEO Is Pregnant For Her Secretary

Writer

“Edward? Why?” She looked at him with tears almost brimming down from her eyes, and he only smiled at her as he walked towards her and bent down to her position holding her hands…

“I want you to know that I am yours,” he said simply and kissed her knuckles while she looked at him unable to say a thing. He rose to his feet, stared at her, and smiled before grabbing his sleeves and wearing them without buttoning up.

“Are you leaving?” She sniffed in and rose on her feet to walk him out which was appreciated as she tried hard to ignore the way her heart raced.

“I forgot my suitcase in my car, so I have to go bring it,” Edward said simply

“Suitcase?” She asked confused and walked out of the room, going down the stairs as she followed him.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Yeah,” he got to the front porch and opened his door, brought out suitcase ## walked up to her who stared at him strangely

“Are you staying here? Don’t you have a hotel?” She shut the door behind her, while he stared at the stairs wondering how he was going to drag his suitcase up there since there wasn’t any elevator or help like in his home.

“Why would I, When you have a house and I can stay here for free? ” He shrugged his shoulders at her.

“What? No!” She rushed to him while he raised his hands and stopped her from completing her sentence.

“How do I get this all the way up there?” He asked, completely confused…

“Really?” She turned to look at him with astonishment before laughing her ass out at Edward who innocently stood there and let her get over with her performance.

“Give me that,” she said and collected the suitcase from him and dragged it upstairs on her own leaving him with a stunned expression.

“You’re coming or not?” She called and he got unfazed from his rattled moment and rushed to her room.

“You have your bath. I’ll prepare pasta for you?” She said and handed him a towel but he scratched his head nervously.

“Let’s have a bath together. I wanna help in the kitchen,” he looked at her and clenched his teeth together revealing to her while she rolled her eyes walk-in away from him when he pulled her.

“Please, I’ll be quick. Sorry we will be quick,” She heard him say again today, twice this night and it made her heart flutter.

‘She looked at him and wondered why was this man being this way, why did he have to say it in such a way that I couldn’t resist or say no to. Why did he use the word in such a soothing manner that it weakens me? Why? Just why was he being so sweet and unpredictable?’ She thought before agreeing to him.

“Fine, but no more please again,” she warned him before grabbing a towel for herself and joining him…

“Oh, my God!” She exclaimed, staring at the wasteful amount of onion scales he had cut off with the actual onions.

“What? Am I doing it wrong?” He asked and she shook her head immediately.

“I just thought of a better task for you,” she smiled at him and he looked at her, while she collected the onions from him, put them aside, and brought a tomato cutting it into two halves and showing him how to slice them.

“Good,” she said smiling as they continued to prepare pasta for dinner.

After the little kitchen mess, and an amazing time having Edward wrap his hands around her while they cook and kiss at different intervals. They had their meal and the couples were back to the bedroom both trying to catch up with work as they busied themselves with their laptop/iPad.

“So you’re going to give a speech at tomorrow’s event?” He asked her, and she nodded her head shyly and was a little bit nervous.

“Well you’re going to do great,” he said sweetly, and she smiled warmly. He closed his laptop and returned it to the dressing table. He came back to the bed and climbed on it using the duvet to cover himself, as he settled down for sleeping.

“What are you doing?” She asked him and dropped her iPad on the cupboard beside her bed.

“Going to bed?” He said with his eyes closed.

“You’re not even going to attempt lying on the sofa, while I offer you my bed?” She folded her hands staring at him in a -“I knew you wouldn’t do that,” but wanted him to pretend to.

“I wouldn’t do that. And like I said I’m not your little boyfriend trying to impress you Maliah,” he paused.

“I’m the man who already had you,” he smiled, while she left her mouth open a bit trying to process those words.

“Now if you are done with your question and being astonished, you could join me in bed and keys cuddle,” even before she could do any of those. He pulled her already and used the duvet to cover her while wrapping his hands around her.

“Goodnight love,” he kissed her forehead and got comfortable as he drifted to sleep leaving Maliah stunned by this side of him…

~The Event~

Maliah

“Thank you for dropping me off,” I said to him, even though I fought the idea but deep down I knew I was glad Edward was here.

The spotlight wasn’t something I was so used to, and today everything is happening with me being the main character. My parents were here and so many people were here to see me, root for me and support me. But most definitely nerve-cracking the world was definitely watching me.

I felt so relieved that Edward just showed up right down even after my silent treatment. His hands on my legs throughout the ride were so calming that I didn’t feel my anxiety trying to find a way to take control of him. His reassuring words and soothing voice made me feel truly powerful and uplifted that I would definitely slay this…

“You are amazing, and you are going to be amazing there love.” He smiled at me, as he opened the door for me and kissed my forehead.

“I’ll come pick you up later as you instructed,” he smiled, while I walked to the venue and the doormen opened the gates for me to walk in. I turned around one more time staring at him and regretting asking him not to be there, cause it definitely felt like I would be needing him as the pressure just spiked up.

I felt the lights on my face as the camera clicked around me. I tried hard to concentrate on my posing and not be bothered by the lights for the next few seconds and thankfully it was over and the overwhelming left for a while. I was directed to my seat, and the whole event started smoothly with a little introduction speech and welcoming of the guests. I felt calm right now as I had settled in and just concentrated my eyes on the speaker while putting a smile on my face, as the videographer pointed at me.

“Damn Is this what it feels like to have all the attention on you,” I thought and breathed out immediately as the videographer moved away from my direction … I looked around and saw my parents from afar and a big smile lingered on my lips…

“And let’s welcome on stage. The lady of the hour,” the MC announced with such enthusiasm that my body trembled a bit but I heard Edward’s voice in my head saying I’m amazing, making me exhale.

“Miss Maliah Hector,” he announced and pointed at me. I stood on my feet with a big smile as the camera was pointed at me while telling myself how amazing I was and how easy this was.

I got on the stage and collected the mic from him. My face was still filled with smiles while everyone in the hall clapped their hands.

“Thank you so much,” I said as the place became silent and my voice filled the room.

I felt nervous as my voice cracked at the beginning of the speech. I tried to look away from the crowd while rubbing the necklace Edward gave me “EP” wishing he was here with me When my eyes caught Edward standing on the wall far from the crowd and I immediately felt my body dance in happiness.

I stared at him throughout the speech, looking at him and pouring out my words like I was talking to him alone while I rubbed the necklace, smiling brightly and giving my speech freely till the very end.

“Thank you everyone for being here, my family, my friends, and you,” I smiled looking at him, as I returned the mic and walked away from the stage ignoring the flashes of the camera.

I settled on my seat and turned to stare at him and whispered a thank you to him, while he smiled back at me….

The event ended wonderfully and it was time for photo sessions with fans and a few of the other committee. I felt so loved and cared about by all the people who loved my work. It felt thrilling and amazing, and even though I was overwhelmed I would just stare at Edward who leaned against the wall far from everyone staring at me with a proud look and I’ll look better instantly.

“Congratulations baby. We are so proud of you,” Dad and Mom said in unison as they hugged me and took a photo with me. I bent a little and hugged Junior who was so happy to meet with me as we both took a photo soon.

“Thank you,” I smiled at them and moved away from the photo booth as we talked…

“Mandy was here and you didn’t tell me she was pregnant,” Mom scolded and I laughed.

“I didn’t know she would make it after the encouraging note and flowers she sent,” I said truthfully but feeling so happy that she made it even with her inconvenience

“Are you both leaving now?” I asked them with a worried look while Mom smiled.

“Yes. Junior needs to go back to school and your father has work to do,” I escorted them slowly to the gates as we converse. I turned behind me and noticed Edward was following me.

“Edward?” I called and he held my head smiling.

“You did great love,” he whispered and I blushed hard.

“You wouldn’t take a photo with me,” he said cutely and pouted his lips while I smiled really hard…

“You want a photo with me?” I said staring at him, and instead of a direct response, he pulled me to the photo booth

“Mom, Dad,” I called to ask them to wait for me, as I attended to Edward quickly.

“Your parents are here?” He asked calmly, as we posed for the camera.

“Yeah, they are leaving though,” I explained as we walked out to Mom and Dad standing in front of us already.

“Good evening Mrs. Hector,” he greeted my mom sweetly, and she smiled at him while giving me a mischievous glance.

“Good evening sir,” he said to Dad who was too stunned to speak. He stumbled backward, staring at Edward with a scared look in his eyes as he had just come in contact with death itself, while Edward busied himself with getting acquainted with Junior.

“You’re Edward… The..” Dad pointed his fingers at him, stammering as if he had lost his breath or had seen a ghost.

“The boyfriend.” He smiled and wrapped his hands around me and pulled me to himself. I was stunned, my eyes popped out while I looked at him, ignoring the giggles my mother made.

“Boyfriend?” Mom said happy.

“Yes, Maliah’s boyfriend,” he turned to me, smiling as he kissed my nose, making me close my mouth as my mom squealed while Junior laughed.

“But that’s not..” Dad was still saying when he pulled me forcefully away from him dragging me far from Edward and Mom who converse freely.

~~~You ruined everything good and always said you were misunderstood. Made all my moment your own~~ Happier than ever plays in the background

“What’s going on?” I asked him immediately, pulling my wrist from his hold.

“Are you trying to spite me?”

“Is this some sort of rebel for my sins?”

“What prank is this Maliah? Why go all the way to be with your enemy just to get back at me?” He lashed out at me…

“I have changed. I learned my lesson and I am doing better, so why this? Why go the extra mile to prove a point?” He continued to say, and I felt my body hurt from his words.

“To prove a point,” I said in a cracked tone, looking at him with anger and dismay…

“This isn’t about you Dad. This is about me and only me,” I almost yelled but I dug my fingers into my palms to stop myself.

“The world doesn’t revolve around you. I’m not trying to get back at you and if you think this is about you. Then fuck you,” I spat.

“And that man over there,” I pointed at Edward

“Is my boyfriend and if you have a problem with that, then take it up with God. Cause no one cares if you exist,” I said and left him standing dumbfounded…

He rubbed me off the excitement I was feeling. I became someone’s girlfriend. This should be a happy moment for me, but he just had to ruin it. He had to make everything about him. I was having troubles today and Edward was there for him. He was my light, my path, and my peace. He was the support system I needed in all and just even he went out of his way to call himself my boyfriend, to show me once again that I am his and the world definitely revolves around me and I was and would always be the main character in his life, dad had to ruin it.

I dried my tears and walked to where Edward and my Mom were talking, as I talked on his shoulder.

“I want to leave here,” I said in a whisper the moment he turned to me.

“What happened?” He asked in a worried tone.

“Who hurt you?”

“Who touched you Maliah,” his voice was rigid and scary too, as I rested my head on his shoulders weeping.

“Maliah,” Mom called in a caring tone.

” I just want to go,” I whisper to him when Dad walks up to us

“What did you do Hector?” Mom asked immediately Dad walked to her pulling her hands.

“Don’t you ever make her cry again,” Edward’s eyes were red, his voice hard and his expression was full of anger. He walked to my dad while holding me as he said those words meaning everything in it.

He didn’t care if it came off as a warning or a threat. Or if he did something wrong by saying that to his girlfriend’s father. But he said them, glared at him, and took me away from their presence ignoring my mom’s calls.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered and kissed my head as he helped me into his car, driving off at speed…
