All Chapters of SOMETHING ABOUT MR CEO : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Jordan stood stiff at one corner of the small waiting room, the only moving part of his physique were his eyes following Jojo's petite figure as she paced the length of the room.He didn't even notice Brad standing awkwardly at the other corner of the room nursing a fraction of unease.He wasn't acquainted with the woman in question, so the same level of tension and fear wasn't expected of him.Neither was it expected of Jordan but he'd known the woman.She'd been like a second mother to him while he was growing up because he'd spent half his time during childhood at the Collen's home either waiting for Jojo's lazy ass to get ready or dropping her off and ending up staying over.He knew exactly how Jojo felt in the moment and he wanted to go to her and hold her, she needed someone to promise that everything was going to be okay and he wanted to be her man but he couldn't. Didn't dare.

Jojo couldnt sleep. She lay restless on her bed, still turned on from earlier in Jordan's room and frustrated from her unsatisfied desires. She felt bad because for heavens sake, she should be up worrying about her mom and the mystery behind her present condition but no she was up craving the touch of the man that was her annoying boss! The thought of getting herself off wasn't appealing to her, not when Jordan was the prize.  She got off her bed, ready to chanel all the energy fueling her sexual frustration into something else. Anything other than lying here would be better. She went past the wide, sliding door and into the  other room to check on Riley. Jordan had insisted that she let the little girl have her own space when he'd carried her in and without giving her a chance to negate him, he'd done as he'd suggested and carr

Except everything was actually wrong  when she got down stairs. Starting from the fact that against all her hoping that Jordan wouldn't be down here, he was to the alerting absence of her human buffer, also known as Riley. Of course, the damn universe had to be working against her all the while she was making up her sweet defence plans only so it could get a good laugh at her and her situation. She prayed to listening gods that Riley would just run into the room or better still just pop out of somewhere in the room like some 'jack in the box'. Jordan sat in the single sofa that faced the great view from the wide window, his attention focused on something on his phone while he idly held a mug she was sure contained black coffee with no creamer and only two sugar cubes. He looked formidable like that and even formidable looked sexy on him, power suit and all. 

Jojo felt a little lost after their visit to the doctor's office but Jordan was there, right beside her and taking good charge.The doctor's words sat like lead on her mind, heavy and very hard to digest.They picked Riley up from the kiddies waiting station that looked more like a mini toy war zone, before they went to see her mom.Her eyes had filled up again at the sight of the new white patch of  her mom's right hand, covered in white.Seeing it made her feel like a failure.She'd failed to protect her family.Jordan was unmoving from beside her and his dominating presence filled the small room.Even in the small hospital room, he only had to stand and he'd exude the level of power other men fought to achieve.Stray and very distracting thought, Jo, don't you think? . We are sworn off the man, right?She shut the annoying v

As promised, Meghan was released from the hospital  the next day on the account that she's improved greatly and was doing well now.She was informed that they should be back in a week for check up and at the slightest sign of a relapse, she should be brought in immediately.Jojo was elated with the new but she was just as surprised too.They were being let go without clearing their bills, yet. This was a first.She asked the doctor about this and he only laughed at her question as if she'd only asked it in a bid to be funny. "Of course we wouldn't be letting you go unless your bills are cleared." He said, taking in her confused expression before he finally got the message.She had no idea what was going on.The lingering smile died away from his face and he asked,"You don't know anything about this, do you?"
