CEO’s Romantic Affair

Keith didn’t know what to say, he leaned against the table and took a closer look at the souvenirs. Then he gazed steadily at her with a calm and regal expression, his eyes shining softly. Cathryn turned to see him looking at her and immediately lowered her head because she didn’t want him to see the expression on her face. Then she thought about how she dragged Keith here, ‘It would be embarrassing if I didn’t buy him anything. After all he has done for me, I have to get him something.’

So she picked up a pendant and looked at the words. It read, ‘May our hearts be linked together forever.’

There was a slight flush on her cheeks, and she said to the man, “I’ll take this one. Would you please get it ready for me?”

Keith looked at the words written on it and then glanced over at Cathryn. A smile of joy and satisfaction lit up his eager face. Cathryn took a deep breath, paused, and sighed, evidently trying to calm herself down.

She lowered her head and watched the old man put a chain on the pendant. Cathryn’s heart was beating rapidly with excitement. After the old man was finished, Cathryn paid for it and handed it to Keith. It was the first time she had bought a gift for him, and Cathryn was full of joy and expectation. She looked at Keith with a smile and said, “Here you are. I hope you like it!”

Taking the gift from Cathryn, Keith looked at it carefully. “I have never seen anything like it before. It’s made of grass root with a classic design.” He stared at it intently. “The workmanship is outstanding. It is an exquisite piece of art.” Then Keith looked at the handwriting, the cursive penmanship was graceful and precise. He could tell it was done carefully and thoroughly.

Keith thought nothing was more beautiful than the words written on it. Even if Cathryn didn’t mean it, he was still happy. His feelings for Cathryn he kept hidden, locked inside, just hoping that one day the feelings would be returned. Keith said to Cathryn with a smile, “Thank you, I love it! I will cherish it forever.” The sincerity in his voice brought tears to her eyes.

When they arrived back at Cathryn’s room, the filming crew had sent her many messages asking if she was okay. They all seemed to be extremely concerned about her. Then immediately after, Cathryn was informed of the final schedule for work. After she finished shooting tomorrow, she could go back to Douglas City.

Alice had seen the news about Cathryn on the Internet and had been calling Cathryn all evening. Alice didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when Cathryn walked into the room. “Cathryn, have been so worried about you. I saw the news on the TV! It’s all my fault, I should have never left you alone.” Alice paused and focused all her strength on staying calm. “What can I do to make it up to you? I feel horrible!”

Cathryn smiles and jokes, “I’ll be grateful if you can complete tomorrow’s shooting by throwing only one cup of coffee on me.”

In fact, after spending several days together, they were getting along like they were best friends. They were already able to joke with each other. Unexpectedly, after Alice had thought about it carefully, she said to Cathryn, “Gosh! I think that may be too difficult for me. Can I take back what I just said?”

The following day everything went smoothly, and there was only one cup of coffee spilled. Finally, Cathryn was ready to go home. Keith had brought his private plane, so Cathryn went back to Douglas City with him. Cathryn sat on the plane while watching the huge propellers rotate, feeling as if she were in a dream. It wasn’t until she returned to Flower Island did she gradually have a sense of reality.

After entering the Villa, Cathryn found that there was a young lady with short hair sitting in the hall. The lady looked very intelligent, and her features were outstanding. There were some small freckles around her nose, and she didn’t look like an American.

“Mr. Clarkson,” she said after seeing. Keith and Cathryn came into the house, the young lady immediately stood up and politely greeted Keith. The woman was five feet and three inches tall. After greeting Keith, the lady slightly turned her head and looked Cathryn up and down, and then smiled at Cathryn.

“This is Jane,” Keith said as he introduced the lady to Cathryn. “From now on, she’s your personal assistant. If you need to go to work, she’ll be there to help you,” explained Keith.

Jane was apparently surprised at Keith’s arrangement because a brief, hard look seemed to drift across her eyes. Jane reached out her hand and said, “Hello, Cathryn. I am pleased to meet you.”

Cathryn also reached out to shake hands with her. Cathryn wanted to ask her something but debated as to whether or not she should. She finally gathered up the courage, and Cathryn asked curiously, “If you don’t mind me asking, how long have you worked for Keith?”

Jane smacked her lips, smiled, and replied, “I’ve known him for quite some time, but it wasn’t until today when he hired me.”

When Cathryn was about to say something else to Jane, Cathryn’s phone rang. She took out her phone and noticed it was Grace. Then she went to a quiet place to talk to her.

Jane had a tremendous amount of respect for Keith because she had lived with the Clarkson’s since she was a child, but the concept of master and servant was still evident in her heart.

“As for the place where Miss Riley had the accident, Rory has already gone there to investigate. With the assistance of the police, the results will be in soon,” Jane deferentially said. After Cathryn’s accident, Keith immediately called Rory and Jane. He arranged for Jane to take charge of Cathryn’s safety while Rory was put in charge of finding out who the serial killer was.

“Tell Rory to pay attention to Cathryn’s safety as well. As soon as he finds out who the serial killer is, make sure he immediately hands the criminal over to the police,” Keith said in a low voice.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Jane smiled and asked, “Is that all? Don’t you want us to do anything else?”

With a serious tone in his voice, Keith said, “Yes, that is all. I’m a law-abiding citizen and will not break the law. You also need to be careful because you want an American visa, do you not?”

“Yes, I agree, you are right!” Jane nodded her head and faintly smiled.

After Cathryn was finished talking to Grace, she was confronted with a series of questions raised by Jane.
