TAMING MR JERKFACE: Own By An Overbearing CEO

Debby's POV

I turned and suddenly realized how soft and comfortable the couch actually is.... With a satisfied smile on my face, I snuggled more to the comfort.

But mother nature is very wicked..... I suddenly feel like using the bathroom. I opened my eyes and rushed to get up but I'm pulled down by a great force.

I quickly open my eyes and saw a strong arm around my waist... tightly holding me down.

Huh? Where did this arm come from?

"Go back to sleep!" A sleepy voice commands me.

That's when I look around and realized I'm no longer on the couch...... I'm on Andre's bed!

I frown.... How did I get here? I don't remember leaving the couch last night?

Hmm. I guess I was too tired to remember.

"Angel, go back to sleep!" He commands again.

Angel? I thought he wasn't gonna talk to me.... crazy man.

Speechlessly, I nod and laid back down... He takes my head and placed it on his chest. But I quickly remembered why I wanted to get up.

"Andre... I wanna... get up..."

"No!" He cuts me off.

His hold around my waist tightened.... like he's scared I'd... runaway?

Hmm... I think I can guess why he's so possessive. Could it be that someone very close to him left him? Could that be what happened to him three years ago? Could that be his past that Natalie refused to talk about?

"I'll be back real quick, I just....."

"No!" He cuts me off again.

"I wanna pee!" I blurt out.

He sighed and reluctantly released me.... not wasting anymore time, I got up and rushed towards the bathroom.

Like I'm really... really.... really pressed!

After I finished my business in there, I step out and gasped loudly when I saw Andre standing by the door of the bathroom.

"Are you done?" He asked me.

I nod... he bent down and carried me back to the bed. He sat on it.... his back resting against the headboard as he sat me on his lap and rests his head on my chest. I sighed.

"Andre....."

"Angel" he cuts me off. "I'm mad at you!" He said.

Ah! Tell me something I don't know.

"Why?"

"Last night.... you disrespected me!"

I rolled my eyes... as if he didn't disrespect me when he claimed me.... when he decided to own me without giving me time to think.

"You know, we were on a date but you received another man's call... you refused to talk to him in front of me, you are my girlfriend and you shouldn't hide anything from me.... be free with me and I promise you, I will take good care of you!" He said softly..... his words sound so sincere though.

I don't understand this guy.... sometimes he's warm and gentle, just like right now..... but other times, he's cold and angry.

His mood swings are really something.

"Are you listening to me, Angel?"

"Yeah... I'm sorry if I offended you but I really didn't mean it"

He sighed.

"I need you by my side..... do you know last night, my heart keeps paining me after he called you.... it felt like someone entered my chest and was stabbing my heart"

Oh! Is he tryna say he was heartbroken? So, he didn't just tried to claim.... he love me?

I can't break his heart if he doesn't love me, right?

Now it's confirmed.... he doesn't know how to express his feelings.... he thought keeping someone with you by all means is how to express love feelings.

He's got a very low EQ.

But what am I gonna do.... I don't love him.

"Don't make my heart experience such pain no more, ok?"

"Ok"

He smiles and raised his head... he pulls my head closer and crashed his lips on mine.

He left a lingering peck on my lips. Then I remembered Lucas was fired because of me, I should beg him to give Lucas his job back.

"Andre, about Lucas....."

"Don't mention his name!" He growled.

I nod.

"Please, give him his job back, he.... "

"No!"

"But you can't just fire him and...."

"I can and I did!"

"But he's my best friend and he has been there for me all these years..... I can't just watch him lose his job"

Andre didn't reply... he glared at me.

"Please..... don't make him jobless"

"Then you should..."

My phone ringtone interrupt him. Andre and I glanced at the phone and Lucas name flashed on the screen.

Andre clenched his jaw.

"And the bastard is still calling you! What's your relationship with him? I told you to break up with him but you didn't! I'm really never gonna give him that job back!!" "Andre, calm down.... he's just my friend.... we have nothing together, we're just friends" I explained to him calmly.

He scoffed and got off the bed.... he marched towards the bathroom and slams it shut in a very loud bang.

His temperament is really scaring me.... I'll just bear till I receive my pay, then I'll get myself an apartment and move from here.

My phone rings and I quickly answer it.

"Hey, Lucas"

"Debby, are you ready for work? Tell me where you are and I'll pick you up!" He said.

Pick me up? No, that will just anger Andre more.

"I think I will take a bus today" I rejected him politely.

"Oh... ok, u received your text last night. Why couldn't we talk?"

"I was in a situation... right, tell Anna to join us later"

"Anna? I thought it's gonna be just two of us... you know, you and me"

"Let Anna come too"

Who knows when I can hang out with them again... this psychopath won't let me meet with them if he finds out Lucas is coming too. "Ok, I...."

I heard the bathroom door crack, like it's gonna open anytime.

"Lucas, I gotta go... see you later!" I hang up before he could speak another word.

Andre steps out of the bathroom with his damp hair and a towel hanging dangerously low around his waist.

Water droplets falling off his body.... he grumpily marched towards the closet.

I sighed deeply and head towards the bathroom.... only God will save me from this Andre's web.

.

Andre pov

I rampage through my closet angrily... that a**hole is making me angry... how dare he call my Angel.

My Angel doesn't love me and I'm trying so hard to make her love me.... why can't she see that.

'You are so boring... how come you don't know anything about love... you are not romantic enough... you don't deserve love... you don't have a heart.... try to learn! Learn how to love.. learn how to be romantic!' Recalling Olivia's words now is making me wonder what I'm doing wrong.

I thought what she said was true... that I didn't have a heart. Until I met my Angel, my heart skipped for the very first time.

But how to show her love.... I don't know. Keeping her by my side is the only way I know how to show her I love her.

And that bastard is trying to come between us.... Never!

My phone suddenly rings.... I checked and realized it's Mom calling.

"Hello, Mom"

"Andre.... I told your dad and grandma about your girlfriend but they didn't believe me. So, when are you gonna bring her home to let us see her?"

"Hmm.. mom...."

"How about today? Bring her to see us today"

Today?.... I don't think my Angel will agree to that.

"Mom, what about tomorrow? I don't think we can make it today"

"Ok! Tomorrow it is.... I have to go, your dad is looking for a file let me help him"

"Ok! Take care, Mom!" I hang up.

Debby's POV

I walked into Andre's walk-in closet.... the maids arranged my clothes on the other side of the closet.

I begin to rampage through my clothes, looking for a proper office wear.... since I'm suddenly an assistant now.

"Angel?" Andre called from behind.

I turned.... he's already dressed in his business suit.

"Oh... you are ready, give me 5minutes... I'll be ready soon" I said.

He nods and turns to leave but suddenly stops.

"Right, Mom invites us for lunch tomorrow" he said.

"Mom?!"

"My mom!"

"Oh!" I nod but frown when his words made sense in my head. "Why did she invite me for lunch?!"

"She wants to meet my girlfriend"

What?! I'm meeting his Mom already?! Ok.... this is going way too fast!

If you're loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! "Andre, I can't have lunch with your Mom tomorrow!"

"Why?"

"Don't you feel like we're going too fast?! Like just yesterday I became your girlfriend and moved in with you.... now, tomorrow I'm having lunch with your Mom?!"

No! I can't do that.... I don't love him and I don't plan on staying with him more than a month.

If I go with him to see his Mom he'll think I'm serious with him.

"But I already promised her!"

"You promised her?! Why didn't you ask me first?!"

Why does he always do things without asking my opinion. He made me his girlfriend without giving me any chance to think about it... he made me move in with him without giving me a chance to think too. And now he's promised his Mom to let meet with her, still not asking my opinion.

"Angel... it's just a simple lunch"

I glared at him.

"Just lunch?! Do you know what meeting your boyfriend's parents means?!"

"No... what does it mean?" He asked.

Ugh! Andre, you are impossible!

"I wanna change.... please step out!" I told him.

He nods and leaves. I groan frustratingly.... I need to talk to Anna.

Thankfully, I came in with my phone.... I quickly dialed her number and she picks after a few rings.

"Babyyyyy, how are you enjoying your boyfriend?"

Enjoying? I wish I'm enjoying!

"Anna... let's meet this morning, code red!"

"Code red?! Alright... FK's right now!" She said.

"Ok!" I hanged.

I quickly got dressed and rushed back in the room.... Andre sat on his bed screwing through his phone with a deep frown.

I cleared my throat to get his attention.

His eyes accessed my outfit and he nods in satisfaction.... I'm dressed in a grey color pencil shirk and a white body fitted long sleeves.

"Beautiful!!" He said.

Phew! Thank God he didn't ask me to change.

"Let's go" he said and got up.

I shake my head.

"No, you go ahead... I'll come in later"

"Why?!" He asked with a frown.

"I'm meeting up with Anna first"

He nods and keeps his phone in his pants pocket.

"I'll drop you off!" He said, leaving no room for arguments.

I guess he wants to confirm if I'm really meeting up with Anna or someone else..... like Lucas.

"Ok!" I replied.

He snake his arm around my waist and leads us out.
