TAMING MR JERKFACE: Own By An Overbearing CEO

Debby's POV

I got out of the office and quickly head for the elevator. I press the ground floor button.

It didn't take long before I arrive, I step out and went to a corner.

I dialed Ann's number, she picked on the first ring.

"Anna?"

"Debby...." She calls me, her voice sounds broken, like she's been crying.

"Anna, what happened?"

She sniffles.

"The landlord came by the apartment and packed your bags outside... He... He... " She is struggling with her words. "he said he can't have you live here no more. What are you going to do now Debby? Where are you going to stay?" I know this day would come but I never expected it to be this fast.

"Anna, don't worry. I'll sort that one out" I told her boldly.

But honestly speaking.... I'm freaking out inside. I mean, I just got a job today.... so where can I go without money on me.

I can't go to a motel.

"Debby, you..."

"Anna I'm fine. I have work to do, got to go now, I'll see you later" I hang up before she can say anything else.

I just hope I close early, I'll go and look for somewhere to rest my head for the night later.

I head towards the elevator to go back to the office, when I heard someone calling my name.

"Debby?"

I turn around and come face to face with Lucas. I quickly jump into his arms...... though, one can tell that I'm not happy.

"I knew it is you" he said.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him.

"I work here. What about you?"

"I work here too" I replied.

He smiles, then stop and wipe my cheek. Then he frowns at me.

"Were you crying?"

Honestly, I didn't even know I was crying. Just as he said that, all that I was trying to bottle up came rushing down.

I rest my head on his chest and begin to cry my eyes out.

"Hey, hey. Debby, please stop crying..... Tell me what happened"

He managed to calm me down and I told him everything Anna told me over the phone.

"It's alright, don't cry now. You can come to my place and stay as long as you like"

I look at him to see if he was joking, but he's serious.

He wipes my cheeks and placed a lingering kiss on my forehead, his hand wrapped around my waist.

I didn't resist because this is how he comforts me..... and sometimes Anna... ok, this is how he comforts me, only me. "Thank you" I said.

"There's no thanks between us"

He hugged me, patting my back and keep muttering sweet things in my ear.

Just then we heard a loud bang and we flinched, but Lucas's arm is still tightly wrapped around my waist.

We turn around.... our boss, aka, André Knights, is standing 8feet away from us.

His eyes hard and dark in anger, his burning gaze fixed on Lucas's arm around my waist.

"What is going on here?!" He asks through gritted teeth.

"Mr.... Mr.... Knights, I.... we.... " Lucas couldn't find the right words to say.

"Debby in my office now!" He said to me and turn to leave. But he suddenly stops and turn to Lucas. "And you... you are fired!!"

Fired?! Just like that?! Or has Lucas offended him before?!

Ugh! I should worry about myself too...... Mr Knight seems to be in a bad mood, who knows if he'll fire me too.

His gaze turn to meet mine.

"In. My. Office. Now!!" Then he leaves.

Oh no! This is bad!

Oh God! Why is this happening to me. I was just packed out of my apartment, now I'm about to lose the job I manage to get today.

Please lord don't let him fire me or I'll be doomed...

.

André's POV

I left my office to go look for Debby, and when I did see her..... the scene before me wasn't what I was expecting.

My angel is wrapped in the arms of another man, he's leaving stupid kisses on her forehead.

My vision blurry instantly, I begin to see red. I clenched my jaw and my fist..... my knuckles turned white.

I glare daggers at his arms around her waist. If looks could kill, I swear this dude would be six feet under by now.

"What is going on here?!" I growled angrily.

The guy open his mouth to speak, but my harsh glare makes him start to stutter rubbish.

I need to leave here, or else I'll get this guy hospitalized.

"Debby, in my office, now" I said, I turn to leave, but suddenly remembered something.

I can't let this guy stay in my company, or he'll take my Angel away from me.

Now that I have found someone to love, I can't let some motherfucker take her away. I turn around and face the guy.

"And you..... you are fired" then I turn to Debby, locking gaze with her. "In. My. Office. Now!!"

Then I storm to my office.

Debby's POV

He is definitely going to fire me, with no mercy at all.

Hold on.... I guess he's angry because of me. I lied to him about using the toilet, could it be that he found out I lied?

Hmmm, it must be..... now he's fired Lucas.

I look at Lucas with teary eyes, he's got fired because of me.

"Lucas, I'm sorry. I dragged you into this, he fired you because of me, I'm so sorry, I..... I....."

He cups my face in his hands, caressing my cheek with his thumb.

"It's okay. I can get another job, don't worry about me. Go now before he gets mad and fire you too" I nod and quickly head towards the elevator.

I enter Mr knights office, and slowly close the door behind me.

I take small steps forward, untill I'm in front of his desk.

Even though I bow my head, afraid to meet his gaze.... I can still tell that he's angry.

I can feel his burning gaze piercing through my veins.

"Who was that guy?" This was the first question that left his mouth.

"Lu.. Lucas, sir" I reply.

"LUCAS?!!" his voice boom, I flinched back a little.

He stays silent for a moment, then stand up from his chair and walks until he's in front of me.

"I'm mad, Angel. No, I take that back, I'm furious" he said. He puts his hands in his pants pocket. "Do you want to know why?" He asks.

I shake my head frantically.

I don't need to know why, he has every right to be angry at me...... I'm just his employee after all.

I've lost my house, I can't afford to lose my job too, on the same day.

"You are..."

I'm what? Please don't say I'm fired. I can't let him complete his sentence.

I quickly went on my knees, tears unknowingly flowing down my cheeks.

"Please, Mr knights. Don't fire me, I need this job, my life depends on it. I promise I won't be sassy anymore.... but please don't fire me. I'll be a good girl, I'll do anything you want. Anything at all" I plead with him.

He just stand there staring at me strangely, like he is trying to figure something out.

He held my hand and help me up.

"Why are you so difficult? I wasn't going to fire you" he said.

"You didn't want to fire me?" I asked, he shakes his head. "But you just fired Lucas"

At the mention of Lucas's name, his eyes harden and his jaw clenched.

"Yes!!"

"Why? He didn't do anything"

"Oh? He didn't? He was holding what's mine, so I fired him" he said.

"And what exactly is that?"

"You"

I open my mouth in surprise and shake my head in disapproval.

So he fired Lucas simply because he was holding me? What is wrong with all these rich brats?

"You're impossible. Do you even know why he was holding me?"

"I don't want to know why. He shouldn't have held you, I don't care whatever his reasons are!!" he said.

"Of course, you don't care!!" I retort back.

Then I remembered he's the boss here.... and also, I just promised not to be sassy.

"He was just comforting me, please give him back his job. If you want to fire anyone, it should be me...... Lucas didn't do anything wrong"

He eyes me, then begin to come closer to me..... with each step he takes forward, I'll take one step back. It continues like that until my back meet with the wall.

He places his hand on each side of the wall, caging me there and leaving no space between us.

I can feel his hot breath on my neck. He leans towards my ear, gently bitting my earlobe. Then he whispers.

"If it's comfort you want, you can always come to me. I'm always available for you"

Then he attacks my neck, kissing and sucking on it like his life depends on it.

I, on the other hand, I close my eyes to enjoy the moment.

He wraps his arm around my waist and pulls me closer to him, our chest touching. He leaves my neck and claim my lips, at first he was gentle.

Then he became rough, aggressive and demanding. He bites my lower lip asking for permission to enter and explore my mouth.

I don't know what I'm doing, his kisses are doing something to me.

I open my mouth and he enters, his tongue fighting with my tongue for dominance, which he eventually won.

He puts his other hand under my blouse and cups my breast, he begin to squeeze and massage it.... he pinches my nipple tenderly.

My body is so full of emotions right no..... I try so hard not to moan.... but the more I try, the more I want to.

"André....."

He removes his hand from under my blouse and starts to move it towards my sister down there.

That is when harsh reality slaps me on my face. Like an electric shock, I jerk away from him and push him from me.

He's my boss, I shouldn't be kissing my boss.

And besides, I should be thinking of how to get Lucas his job back.... now that I'm homeless and I'll be crashing at his house.

This is the least I can do for him.

"Angel, what's wrong?"

"Nothing!" I adjust my clothes. "You need to give Lucas his job back, please"

He studies me.

"Why do you want me to give him his job back? No, I won't" he said stubbornly.

I sigh frustratingly.

"Fire me instead and give him his job. Now that I'm homeless, I'll be living with him, this is the least I can do for him...... to show how grateful I am" I said.

He held my arm.

"Wait... Repeat what you first said"

"Fire me instead and....."

"No, after that" he interupts me.

"Now that I'm homeless?"

"Yeah, why are you homeless?" He asks, his face serious.

Oh boy!

Why did I let that slip from my mouth? Well, I guess I'll just have to tell him the truth then.... or he won't let it go.

"My house rent is due and I didn't have money to pay, so my landlord packed my bags out"

He frowns, and punch the wall besides my face.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Was that the phone call you went to receive outside?" I nod. "You should've told me, where do you think you are going to stay?"

"That's why I said you should give Lucas his job back..... he's offering me his house, he said I can live in his house for now. I can't let him lose his job after his generosity" "No!!" he said blurtly.

"No? Why?" I asked.

"Why will you live with another man, when we have a big mansion with lots of room"

"Mr knights....

"

"For fuck sake, stop calling me that. And you are going to live in our mansion, end of discussion" he said and take long strides to his chair.

"But....."

He raised his brows at me, his hands resting on his desk.

"You said you will do anything I ask you, right?"

I think about it for a moment, if it means Lucas can still have his job, then I can do it.

"Yes" I nod my head.

"Good. Now, I want you to pack your bags and come live with me in our mansion"

"But that would be inappropriate, we're not married and I can't live with my boss under the same roof" I reason with him.

He just scoffs.

"I'm not your boss, Angel. I'm your boyfriend and I don't see why I can't live with my girlfriend in the same house" he said.

"I'm not your girlfriend, I didn't agree to be your girlfriend"

Immediately I said that, his eyes harden. I can hear the sound of him gritting his teeth.

Oh no, I just push the wrong button. I guess.

"If you still refuse to admit that you're my girlfriend, then I'll never give Lucas his job back. And I will make sure nobody employs him in this country" he said, his tone and eyes held a promise.

I don't know how being in a relationship where I feel nothing for the man will work.

But I can't let Lucas suffer because of me, my conscious can't bear it.

"O.... Okay" I said reluctantly, after much thoughts.

"Okay what?"

"I'll be your girlfriend"

He quickly sprang up from his chair, he grab me into his arms and place a lingering peck on my lips.

"Great! Come on, baby. Let's go to your apartment to your stuffs" he said excitedly.

Okay, right now this grown ass man is behaving like a teenager boy.

"Right now?" He nods. "Don't we have work to do?"

"That can wait, you come first" he said.

Without waiting for my response, he pulls me out the door and we head for the elevator.

All my years on this Earth, I've never seen this kind of obsession.

Can

I survive living with him?

And besides, I just agreed to be his girlfriend, just like that. I hope I won't regret this decision.
