Madison's POV"Not as if he is your child," I sneered, Xavier stepped on the brakes immediately but my seat belt saved me.I didn't know where such words had come from or why I had said them but Violet and Xavier's expression wasn't the reaction I thought I would see."Did you hit your head or something?" Violet commented from the back."Am sorry, I didn't mean it," I apologized to Xavier, I could see guilt in his eyes but why was he feeling guilty?"I'm sorry for scolding you about Ryan but why did you say that?" Xavier apologized, making me confused."I don't know, it just slipped out of my tongue," I pouted, Xavier nodded and continued driving."Is Ryan's medical records part of the record I wasn't allowed access to?" I turned to see Xavier's hand tightening around the steering wheel again and his teeth grinding."Yes," Xavier answered with a straight face."Why can't I see it?" I tried my possible best to be calm.I don't know why Xavier doesn't want me to access mine and the kid
Madison's POVI walked into the Secretary's office with the elderly lady whose name I just learned was Becky. The office was right in front of Mr Adrian's office."This is where you will be working from today," Becky handed me my files, I smiled and took it from her hand politely."Okay thanks, I think I should get to work now," I dropped the files and my bag on the table."These are the things you should know about CEO Adrian, Director Leon, and Mr Xavier," Becky handed me an envelope."I understand Mr Adrian but why the others?" I asked curiously."Mr. Adrian is the owner of Adrian's empire, Mr. Leon is his brother, the second in command, you have to please him to get through to Mr Adrian," Becky paused as if thinking of what to say."Then how about Mr Xavier?" I hurriedly asked before she could continue what she was saying."Xavier is Mr. Adrian's friend and one of the biggest shareholders in Adrian's empire, you have to respect Mr. Xavier because if anything happens it can cause a
Madison's POV I stood in front of Hong Kong International Airport waiting to welcome and accompany Mr. Adrian and the rest of his executives to their suite. As Mr. Adrian's secretary, I had to leave first to make sure everything was in order for his arrival, his plane landed over an hour ago but he was nowhere in sight. It's been over a month since I started working at Adrian's Empire and I still don't understand him. I was told to wait for him because he was around somewhere and that is what I have been doing, most of his executives were already in the car while him, only God knows where he is. I only agreed to come on this trip because I wanted to teach Mr Adrian a lesson for humiliating me, I didn't want to leave Ryan but he is staying with his dad this period and I feel so bad that I can't even take care of my child. I was about to sit down when I saw Mr. Adrian walking out of the airport with a lady next to him, their hands intertwined, I ran up to them to carry their bag.
Adrian's POVI sat on the chair in front of the reading table trying to put some files in order on my laptop while Leon was lying on my bed operating my phone and his phone together."So much transaction!" Leon yelled and sat straight on the bed, "Is something wrong with your card or are you being scammed?"I don't even know why Leon came on this trip, he said he was going to attend through the Zoom meeting room now he is here live and direct."Am not being scammed, it just," before I could complete my words Leon interrupted."These are all female shopping, did you give Lexie your card?" Leon asked, his eyes still fixed on my phone, his fingers still scrolling through the debit messages.I stood up from the chair and snatched my phone from Leon's hand, I scrolled through it, and a smirk appeared on my face when I realized Madison was spending my money.Leon stood up from the bed and walked up to me, "What is that on your face?" Leon pointed at the corner of my lips, the smirk on my fa
Madison's POVI took the card from Mr Adrian and left his room to mine. I had to get dressed into something classy if I was going to be using his black card.I removed my ripped jeans and big T-shirt and put on a more classy dress that Xavier had gotten me some time ago with matching heels. I browsed the most popular female shops to shop from."Why did you accept his card? You could have asked Xavier for his," I could hear the annoyance in Violet's voice from the other side of the phone."I didn't want to disturb Xavier," I pouted though she couldn't see me."I don't like the idea of this," Violet whined."Don't worry I will send pictures," I threw her a kiss and ended the call before she could say anything else.I continued walking around the clothing section, I had tried on so many dresses but it wasn't giving what it should be giving, I was about to walk out of this particular section when a red dress caught my attention."I will try the red dress," I pointed at the red dress for t
Madison's POVI was standing by the corner of the hall, resting my back on the wall enjoying the scenery when I saw Mr Adrian walking towards me with a smile on his face."Seems like you need some company," Adrian rested on the wall next to me.My heart raced at Adrian's words and the sight of him resting on the wall, this scene looked familiar, I was sure I had seen Adrian rest on the wall like this and made the exact same statement."Do you care for some wine?" Adrian asked, holding two glasses of wine in his hand."Thank you," I managed to recollect myself and collected the wine from his hand."Aren't you enjoying the evening?" Adrian sipped from his wine glass."I am, I didn't get the chance to say thank you for the card," I smiled and sipped out of my own glass."Sure, it's no problem at least you represented the company well," Adrian returned the glass to a waitress passing by.My eyes began to feel hazy as I felt a sudden dizziness, I leaned on Adrian's hands for support. I fou
Madison's POV"Aren't you getting down?" I lifted my head to see Adrian standing by the car door he already opened."Huh? Yes," Adrian brought out his hand, I held onto him and came down from the car, I hadn't realized when we got to the hotel.I began walking slowly because my legs were hurting from the heels. Adrian, walking ahead of me, stopped and carried me in bridal style. I didn't refuse but rather let myself relax in his arms. I opened my eyes to see Mr. Adrian put me on top of a bed. I looked around. It wasn't my hotel room but his. I sat up straight.Adrian sat at the edge of the bed, "Don't worry, rest up, take the bed and I will take the couch," he removed my shoes from my legs."Don't worry about it, I can go to my room," I refused, standing from the bed but instantly regretted it the moment my feet touched the cold floor.I raised my leg with speed, "Stay, am going to take my bath," Adrian walked away from the room to the bathroom.Adrian's room is the penthouse of one
Madison's POVI stared at the message and video in horror, "Who are you? How did you get this!" I panicked.The video was of yesterday night, how on Earth did this person get it and what could this person want?"Calm down sweetheart, we will get to that but for now focus on your company meeting," The person ended the call before I could say anything.I threw my phone on the floor and screamed out of frustration, at this moment my head clicked, what I had done was wrong, I had cheated on Xavier with Adrian but at the same time, it didn't feel wrong."What was the scream about?" Adrian asked the moment he entered the room.I stood up from the bed with the bed sheet wrapped around my body, "I'm sorry about last night, it shouldn't have happened, we have both cheated Xavier so please let's pretend this never transpired," I said in one go using my hand to demonstrate."What are you talking about?" Adrian took a step towards me but I backed away."Stop, Don't come closer," I tried to stop h
