Chapter 41: Chapter 41

Chapter 41 Sophie’s pov : I smiled at the woman beside me as I sat down on the chair beside hers. She smiles politely back even though she didn’t know me.

Lisa sits to my right and sighed. “I’m nervous.” She admitted, her feet bouncing on the floor.

I noticed everyone was on edge as I scan my eyes through the crowd of people waiting for this CEO to show up.

Was the CEO that bad?

“Is he that bad? The CEO I mean?” I asked, turning to her. If everyone was so on edge, I can’t help but feel like I should be nervous too.

Maybe I should be shitting my pants right now.

Lisa nods. “Oh yeah. He wasn’t named the blue-eyed devil for nothing. He’s the Chairman’s grandson and when he took over the company everyone thought that finally, they wouldn’t have to work under a hard and cold man anymore. Turns out that he was even worst than his grandfa ther. Bummer because he’s so young and handsome. Makes one wonder what he went through to turn out like that.”

Blue-eyed devil?

Well, that was surely a name to set fear into someone.

I gulped. If he acted like the devil they named him as then I did have to fear.

“He sounds....

I drawled out.

“Scary I know.” Lisa nods. “Even though he’s so cold, women still flock towards him. I mean if you saw that face and body, you’d be too.”

I highly doubt it. Men are the last thing on my mind right now and the only male that was, was my little Ash bug, And Aiden. But that was because I couldn’t stop thinking about him when our son was his exact replica.

Speaking of...

I scan my eyes over the mass of heads around me in search of him. There were no signs of him. I puffed out an annoyed breath.

It wasn’t him Sophie. Just your mind playing tricks on you.

“But I should warn you. Don’t let those good looks fool you. He’s a womanizer and rumor has it that the chairman is fed up with his womanizing ways.” Lisa snorted. “I think he slept with most of his secretaries and most women working here...well excluding me of course.”

Wow, that CEO sounds like a piece of work and disgusting.

“How young is he?” I asked out of curiosity.

Lisa’s eyes narrowed. “He should be in his early twenties. I heard he likes to keep his past a secret. No one knows anything about him personally.”

I furrowed my brows. The more she describes this guy, the more I feel repulsed and con fused. He was a womanizer yet private? Could he be any more cliché?

Bernard waves at us as he makes his way to the front row. We waved back. “I thank God ev ery day that I got Bernard as my boss instead of working as the CEO’s PA. His current one is un der a lot of stress. He doesn’t even care that she’s sick.”

“Wow. He sounds like an awful human being.” I nodded, already making up my mind that hated this man.

Lisa nods. “Yeah, but at least his looks make up for it.” She snorted with a giggle.

I smiled. “I don’t think his looks will save him. If he’s an awful person from the inside then it will show from the outside.”

Lisa suddenly breathed out. “Oh God, he’s here.”

My brows clench. Judgment day has arrived. God was here?

“God’s here?” I voiced out. My Ash bug Lisa shook her head. “No I meant to say the CEO is here. Look. He’s making his way to the stage.” She nudges her head to the left and I quickly follow her gaze. Only for the air to get stuck in my lungs.

My heart slams in my chest harshly.

“Aiden?” I breathed out.

“Yeah, Aiden Xavier. Do you know him personally? If you don’t, I’d suggest you to not call him by his first name, he doesn’t like it and it’s unprofessional.” Lisa suggested.

The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden)

Chapter 40 The Billionaires Mistress Epilogue The Alpha and The Fool Chapter 30 I started but I can’t even think properly much less speak. Was this a joke?

Oh God, I was hallucinating again.

There was no way Aiden was the Ceo of Harrington.co. How was this even possible?

“Is he- uhm- is he the CEO?” I breathed out shakily as I watched him walk to the stage with powerful strides.

He looked so good.

My lower belly swirls with heat despite knowing I shouldn’t be feeling such a way in a crowd ed area.

“In the flesh. But as I said, don’t make his handsome features fool you, he’s a womanizer and sleeps around. I don’t want you to be his next victim so you should stay clear of him.” Lisa warned.

Oh Lisa, if only you knew how much of a victim I had been to his charms. I even have a full lit tle human to show for it.

I shook my head. Reality was biting me in the ass and I didn’t quite like it.

Aiden walks up the steps leading to the stage and strolled slowly to the front. His hands were in the front pockets of his expensive pants and his eyes were cold, freezing everyone in the room.

But as if like magnets, those blue storms swept over to me and connected with mine. I held my breath and squirmed in the seat at the intensity of his gaze.
