The Ruthless CEO

Mr. Hulk

As promised, I have updated before the end of October. And updates are slow because of my work. I cannot update as often as I used to when I had first begun writing but please bear with me. I am trying my best to update.

Big thank you to all the lovely messages that certain readers send me to encourage me. Thank you so much.

Also, I wanted to share an important day of my life with you. So I graduated on Tuesday 17th October. I would like to thank my readers because I have graduated today not only because of my hardwork but whenever I was down with my dissertation, you guys have always been there to take me away from that stress even if it was for a little while. I remember, some readers were even sending me motivational sayings, so this success is dedicated to all of you. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

If you want to see my graduation gown, you can follow me on IG - ina_f23. Send em a message before so that I can accept your request.

Last but not the least, this chapter is dedicated to @Amrutha_d . Thanks for being so awesome.

I won't bother you much.

Enjoy

Hope you like it :)

"Um," I gulped, looking to my right, seeing Robert sleeping with his mouth wide opened. What a moron! I heard Mr. Salvestro sigh angrily before me, making my stomach churn.

"If I need to fucking wait another minute to hear your explanation, I swear you won't be happy with what I'm going to do, Ava!" Mr. Salvestro warned through clenched teeth making me focus all my attention on his furious yet devilishly handsome. Am I even making sense right now? Anyways, let's forget about making sense.

"Actually, we were waiting for you." I said, fidgeting my fingers. However, my answer seemed more like a question to me but what is intimidating me more is that Sebastian closed his eyes tightly for at least ten seconds before opening them.

His orbs were staring straight at mine. They were full of wrath and antagonism making me even more scared.

"You were waiting for me?" He repeated what I said in a deadly calm tone. This, ladies and gentlemen is what I think is the calm before the storm.

"Yes." I replied, not knowing what else to say.

"Don't play fucking dumb with me AvaGrace." Mr. Salvestro spat irritatingly. "He has his fucking arms wrapped around you and you call this waiting for me?" He bellowed. Why does he make this seem like an entirely different thing?!

"This is not what it seems like." I argued. However, I do not understand why the hell am I explaining myself to him. He makes me feel as if I am cheating on him when he is not even my boyfriend or husband. He's just my boss.

"Sure!" He replied sardonically. "Might as well tell me that unicorns exist!"

"Look, we were just watching The Notebook while waiting for you to wake up and I was beginning to feel sleepy and soon after I fell asleep and so did Robert. That's it." I explained thoroughly.

"This house is big enough. You could have chosen a room and sleep or you could simply have come to my r—" Mr. Salvestro stopped immediately what he was about to say. Chosen a room? Really?

"You haven't given me permission to sleep in one of your rooms. Plus, it would have been unethical." I disagreed with his point.

I noticed his eyes soften slightly and he was about to say something when a yawn from Robert prevented him to do so.
