MY CEO BESTIE AND ME

At L.H. Group, Lerisa Jonah stood up from her executive office chair as she was through with her office work for the day. She works as Anthony Gregson's secretary, so she stepped out of her chair and picked up her black handbag that was on her desk as she was already going home. She's a fair-in-complexion young lady, 24, and she was wearing a yellow shirt, a black pencil skirt, and black shoes. She wondered why she hadn't seen Anthony stepping out of his office. She knew that Anthony usually closes by 5 p.m. and leaves the company before 6 p.m., which was the company's normal closing hour. She made her way toward Anthony's office door to find out what was still delaying her boss. As the time was already after 6 p.m. and most of the staff had gone home,. Approaching Anthony's office door, she knocked, and she heard him respond, “Come in.” She pushed Anthony's office door opened and stepped into his office, where she saw him seated on his executive office seat and staring at a red

Lerisa walked into her family mansion's living room and met her mother standing beside the dining room, arranging the dining chairs. Her elder brother and younger sister weren't around, as they were still in school. "Good evening, Mom," Lerisa greeted her mother but didn't stop in the living room as she walked towards the corridor that led to all the rooms in the big house. Mrs. Antonia wondered what happened to her first daughter, as she saw how Lerisa's face looked pretty red. She immediately called Lerisa back. "Come here, Lerisa! What happened in the office today? Why does your face look so red?" Lerisa stopped and replied, "Nothing, Mom, I'm fine." Mrs. Antonia sighed and dismissed Lerisa. "That's fine; do it quickly and come join your father and me for dinner." “Okay, Mom,” Lerisa replied, darting into the corridor as she went to her room to take her bath.She stepped into her room and shut the door. She cried and leaned into the door for support as she strode towards

Lerisa had finished her dinner with her parents in the dining room. None of her siblings were at home, so she stood up, locked the house entrance door, and finally returned to her bedroom to sleep. She went into her bedroom, picked up her phone, and saw that the time was after 10 p.m. She was surprised to see many missed calls from Anthony, and she wasted no time in calling him back to know why he had called her. “Hello, Anthony," she spoke first: as soon as the call connected. “Hey, Lerisa. "I was calling you before to see if you've gotten home safely and if you're okay now." Anthony asked as he was still standing in his bedroom, preparing to sleep, when he saw his phone ringing. He took it, and saw that Lerisa was the one calling him. "Yeah, I'm fine now. Thanks for calling me to check," replied Lerisa. She knew that Anthony cared for her like an older big brother. But he was not her brother; she has a big brother named James Jonah. Lerisa wished Anthony could see her beyon

Ben chuckled out first over the phone call, as he knew he had been asking Lerisa out, yet she didn't want to accept him. She was the first lady who had ever rejected his attempts to date her. He was determined to have her by all means, whether she liked him or not. He believed that, with time, she would fall in love with him too. "Does it matter how I got your number? The truth is that I want to hear your voice. "I've been searching for your mobile number since and finally got it from somewhere." "Where?" Lerisa asked Ben, frowning and not wanting to have anything to do with Ben. She knew that Ben was also from a rich family, not the first son, but he owned a hotel and was doing well at his age, despite being the same age as Anthony. "Why are you calling me?" Lerisa inquired. "Chill, babe. Why are you sounding so pissed off? Yesterday, upon observing how depressed you appeared, I became extremely concerned for your well-being. I couldn't sleep well last night, which is why I am cal

Clara knew she had lied to Remy about her name as April. That was one of her habits of lying to men about her real name, since she wasn't interested in them and only wanted to have sex with them. She walked back into her house gate, as she lived there alone, and returned to her room in the rented apartment. Meanwhile, Lerisa drove to the shopping complex where she wanted to purchase clothes, parked her car, and sighed in relief. She remembered how Clara had denied knowing her. Lerisa thought to call Anthony again on the phone. But she didn't know how she would explain to him that she saw his girlfriend cheating on him. She switched off her car engine and finally stepped out of her car before locking her car door and walking up to the shopping boutique where she wanted to select a gown. Lerisa stepped into one of the feminine boutiques, and the sales representative there attended to her. "Good afternoon, ma'am. What kind of clothes do you want to buy? We have gowns, skirts, blouses,
