The Arrogant CEO

TRENDING!

Reached #6 in romance, thanks everyone xx. And 1M reads woah! Thank you guys so much, I love every single one of you.

The kiss was amazing but the thoughts invading Isabella's mind were scary. What if he would be gone after taking what he want from her and the main problem was what would people think if they ever found out the relation between them which was restricted as he was her boss. She put her hands onto his chest in attempt to push him away lightly. He pulled back, his eyes widening in process. This was the first time she pushed him away when they were kissing.

"W-we can't do this" She said looking down to her feet, suddenly finding them the most interesting thing in the entire world

"Why?" His voice was hoarse and it only took Isabella her conscience to not to grab him and kiss the life out of this man.

"Y-you know the reason. You're my boss and I'm your employee" Realization settled in him as those words left Isabella's mouth causing him to pull away abruptly. Isabella couldn't comprehend why it hurt when his hands slipped away from her waist and he pulled back scratching the back of his neck. But she had to control herself and her hormones because whatever was happening between them wasn't right and in the end she would just end up with a broken heart as he was not into relationships and he would find someone more beautiful and intelligent than her, leaving her all empty and alone so she decided not to get too close to him and not let her walls down in front of him. This was what her mind said but her heart screamed at her and wanted her to go near him and hug the life out of him and not to leave him but she remained at her place.

"You're right" He said and her heart clenched at his words. How stupid of her to believe him and trust him thinking that he would never leave and hurt her. Tears threatened to spill out from her eyes and she used all of her courage to push them back.

"Y-you should leave" She choked out but actually she wanted him to stay and spend the night in his arms but we don't always get what we want.

"Yeah" He said. Grabbing his phone and car keys, he left her room. After a minute or so, she heard the main door slam meaning he left. She sobbed out, she missed his presence but now she would have to maintain her distance from him as she could not fall into his trap or whatever she liked to call it. The rest of the night spent in sleeping.

The noise of someone calling out Isabella's name more like yelling at the top of their lungs ruined Isabella's sleep. She groaned and stretched like every other day when suddenly her eyes widen in horror.

"I live alone" She whispered to herself as the reality sank in of who could be there this early in her house, yelling. She crept out of her bed slowly, and quickly grabbed her straighter from the dressing table, not forgetting to plug it in. Yeah, she would burn the burglar to death.

She opened her room's door, expecting to hear some noises and she heard someone's laugh. She grasped her straightener tightly, ready to attack the person.

"DON'T EVEN THINK OF-" She started but was soon cut off as she saw saw the people standing in front of her. She quickly put away the straightener and ran towards them.

"Nana" She whispered, hugging her maternal grandmother who came to visit them after a long time and was settled in California.

"Megan, how are you?" She asked as she hugged her sister.

"I'm fine but Izzy, why did you look like you were ready to attack us?" Megan asked, referring to the straightener which was in her hands just a few minutes ago.

"I thought you guys were burglars" Megan had the keys to the apartment

"Anyways, Nana, I missed you so much" Isabella said

"I missed you too, Bella. You've grown up so much!" Penelope exclaimed.

"Wasn't I supposed to?" Isabella said with a hint of teasing in her voice.

"You naughty little thing" Penelope glared at her playfully as she pulled her right ear. She was the most awesome, kind and caring grandma in the whole world as Isabella thought so.

"Come on Izzy, I brought you some breakfas r fromStarbucks" Megan said as she skipped down the stairs.

"Did I mention how much I love you, Meggie?" Isabella yelled as she walked down the stairs, Penelope following behind her

"No you didn't but it's fine, I know you love me more than your hot boss" Megan said, setting the breakfast on the table

"I do not love him" Isabella said while glaring at her sister while Penelope stood there, confused

"What are you two talking about?" Penelope asked and Megan ran to her

"Granny, our Izzy is in love with her boss, oh did I mention that he is a hot piece of as-butt?" Megan grinned and Isabella threw a cushion at her

"Really, Bella? You're screwing your boss?" Penelope's statement caused Isabella's eyes to widen, she was just talking like an older version of Ellie

"Granny, I'm not 'screwing' my boss, things are just complicated between us" Isabella said, remembering the scenes of the night before.

"Do you like him?"

"I do but we can't, he's my boss and our relationship is restricted" she said looking down

"If he's making a move then let it be, but first I'll have to meet him. I don't want to give away my precious granddaughter to any fuck boy" Penelope said in a playful tone

"Granny, is Megan teaching you these cuss words?" Isabella asked

"What? I'm not that old, I know whatever words you guys use these days" Penelope said and then they all sat on the dining table and had their breakfast in peace.

Hailey entered the supermarket near her apartment and ran towards the stall where ice creams were kept. She grinned looking at the last tub of vanilla icecream.

"I have accomplished my mission, give me a cookie!" She muttered to herself as she reached out for the tub but before her hand could even touch it, another person reached out for it making her whine.

"No, you can't do this I came here first; it's mine!" She said whining between the words. She looked up to see the person and saw that John was.looking down at her with amusement in his eyes.

"Well, as the tub's in my hand so it's mine" John said shrugging

"Listen here, mister-" Hailey started

"I'm your boss" John stated

"Does it look like I care? We're not at work so you're not my boss here, now give me that tub" Hailey said as she reached for the tub in his hand but he stood on his tip toes causing the tub to get higher. John took slow steps towards her in order to distract her and it was easy, she took steps back with her eyes widening.

"W-what are you doing?" She asked him as he caged her against the shelf.

"You wanna know what I'm doing?" John whispered in a hoarse voice

"Yes" Hailey replied in a slow voice

"Well, Ms. Radwell I'm gonna run with this tub now" John whispered in her ear and ran towards the cash counter, paid for the icecream and left the supermarket. Hailey stomped her foot on the ground and ran after him.

"Mr. Martin, you better give that icecream to me!" Hailey yelled

"What if I don't?" John yelled back grinning at her

"Then you'll have to pay"

"Oh really? Well bring it on, I'm not scared of you" John yelled

"Okay stop! Stop!" Hailey said as she put her hands on her knees, panting heavily. John did the same

"I have an idea, we'll share this icecream" Hailey said hoping to get yes for and answer, she was craving for icecream

"Sounds good to me" John said and they both walked towards his car. He sat down on the hood of his car and Hailey did the same. He unwrapped the tub and they digged in.

"You have some icecream there on the corner of your lips" John said pointing towards it

"Where?" Hailey asked trying to wipe it off

"Let me" John said as he leaned in closer and pecked the corner of her lips, licking it too. Her breath hitched in her throat at his gesture but she still managed to say 'eww disgusting' to clear the awkwardness in the air.

"Megan, come here" Isabella yelled from the living room. She and Penelope were sitting in the living room, talking about things.

"Yes?" Megan asked once she entered the room

"Sit" Isabella said in a serious voice and Megan assumed that something was wrong.

"Father wants to meet you" As those words left from Isabella's mouth, Megan's hands clenched

"I don't want to see him" She said in a calm voice

"Talk to him Megan just for once to clear the misunderstandings and all your confusions and afterwards it would be your decision if you want him to enter our lives or not" Isabella said hoping her sister would understand

"What's left to talk about, Izzy? What sort of explanation is he gonna give us for all those years you went through, tolerating everything, him abusing you was a big failure of his life and I'm never gonna forgive him for what he did to you. Tell him to get the fuck out of our lives" Megan yelled, tears brimming in her eyes. Penelope rubbed her back soothingly to calm her down. Isabella wiped her sister's tears and hugged her.

"You know I love you so much for standing up for me, I would have never been where I am without you being there for me and having my back all the time and if you don't want him in our lies then he's never gonna enter our lives, okay?" Isabella said and Megan just nodded

"So enough of this emotional shit, let's go to the amusement park" Megan said as she stood up and wiped her tears causing both Isabella and Penelope to chuckle.
