The CEO’s Betrayal: My Ex-lover Has Triplets

Chapter 55- Only girl

Aaron’s heart soared with happiness at Tessa’s words. He stepped closer to her and snaked an arm around her waist, pulling her close.

His other hand grabbed her chin. He tilted her head up and kissed her hard, sucking and nibbling on her lips with so much passion that was out of this world.

As he kissed Tessa, he felt tingles rush through his body and excitement crept into him as he thought about what she had offered to do. He had missed working with Tessa and although he was sad that something had happened to the company, he was elated that he got to spend time. with the love of his life.

He grabbed the back of Tessa’s head and deepened the kiss, tightening his hold on her waist as if he wanted to be moulded into her. It didn’t take long for him to get turned on and his shaft throbbed against Tessa’s abdomen.

That seemed to bring them back to the present. When they broke apart, Tessa blushed and glanced at Edmund who was sleeping on the hospital bed. She let out a sigh of relief when she saw that he was still asleep.

She playfully hit Aaron’s arm before whispering, “How could you kiss me like that in front of your father?”

Aaron smirked and grabbed Tessa’s hand before lacing their fingers. He replied, “I can kiss you anywhere I want because you’re mine, cupcake. Don’t worry, Dad will be out for some hours due to the medication. He didn’t see us.”

When they reached the Wentworth group company building, Aaron hooked his arm with Tessa’s and they walked in together. The security guards at the entrance bowed at them in reverence, greeting, “Good evening, Miss Hilton. Good evening, Mr Wentworth.”

Tessa’s lips curved into a smile when she was acknowledged by Aaron’s staff. She leaned onto Aaron’s shoulder and asked, “They know me? These guards look new though.”

“Everyone in this company knows you, love. I made sure of that. I uploaded your photo on the company portfolio so that those who don’t know you can recognise you in case you visit me. I wouldn’t want anyone refusing you entry because they didn’t know you’re my woman, Aaron remarked as they entered the CEO’s private elevator.

A wave of giddiness hit Tessa and heat crept up her face. Her heart fluttered wildly and she tightened her hold on Aaron’s arm, saying, “You’re spoiling me too much, babe. I might get

used to it.”

“I want you to get used to it. I promise to give you the very best that life can offer,” Aaron declared just as they stepped onto the topmost floor.

When they got to his office, Aaron led Tessa to the visitor’s lounge and said, “Just sit and keep

me company. I have to write a lot of letters and I don’t want you to hurt your hands.”

“What? Didn’t you already agree? I can’t just sit and watch you do all the work. I want to help,” Tessa complained as she took a seat on a leather couch.

Aaron had called a few people to the company so that they could work on the issue at hand. Enock had already left with some experts in search of the missing ships.

“Having you here is enough help. Your presence gives me the strength to go on. There’s nothing that can be done until we find the ships and the culprit. While my tech team is working on trying to stop the stocks from dropping any further, I’ll write to the victim’s families to show them that we care and we are not taking this case lightly,” Aaron declared.
