A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

293 Birthday Celebration

Lily was the most thrilled by Ella’s presence and the display of passion between her husband and her. She had been secretly wishing for something bad to happen between Leon and his shameless mistress.

“What heartless lady would seduce and sleep with a pregnant woman’s husband? Lily thought inwardly as she secretly sneered at Xia. “Does she think the boss loves her or would live his beautiful wife for her? This lady must be delusional.”

Lily waited for Xia to answer her but when she observed that the reply was been delayed, she asked again, “Miss Chu, are you feeling well? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

“Yes...I mean, no, I’m not feeling well.” Xia felt too embarrassed to look into Lily’s eyes as it dawned on her that she was not dreaming. “I think I need to use the convenience.”

“Aww... That’s bad!” Lily faked an empathetic look. “Imagine what Mr. Leon and his wife would think of you, walking out of the room when the fun has barely started.”

Lily leaned closer and whispered into Xia’s ear.

“Or do you wish to be the one the boss is kissing right now?”

“What?” Xia shot Lily a deadly glare.

Even though Xia understood that Lily was practically making jest of her situation, she knew this wasn’t the best time or place to reprimand her. Also, she was too disoriented to think of a nasty way to reply to Lily and she knew that Lily’s help would come in handy, to save her from her current misery.

.....

As Xia was about to reply to Lily more subtly, the kissing scene ended and an uproar of cheers and clapping engulfed the room.

“Are you angry that I planned this surprise birthday party?” Ella asked softly while beaming into her husband’s hungry eyes. She carefully cleaned a little of her red lipstick stain on his lips and placed one of her hands on his chest.

“Even if I’m angry at anyone, I can never be angry with you. Thanks for putting all this together. You are the best wife any man could ever ask for. I love you.” Leon kissed her softly on her forehead before slowly and reluctantly releasing her waist.

Ella scoffed inwardly at Leon’s last statement.

‘How could you claim to love someone and end up sleeping with another?’ Ella faked a smile as she released her hypnotized husband from her charms.

She slowly turned to face the excited party members and thanked them for all their support and commitment to the success of the party.

“Words would not be enough to appreciate you all for risking your jobs to celebrate my darling husband,” Ella smiled as Leon wrapped his hand around her from behind and gently stroked her baby bump for the very first time.

“The good news is that my husband won’t be firing anyone in this room except those who intend to leave of their own free will.” Ella briefly gave Denise a wink, making her smile mischievously.

“Furthermore, you all are free to take... Ella turned her head to gain Leon’s attention.

“One hour,” Leon whispered into her ear, while brushing his warm lips against her ear, making her take a sharp breath to stifle her awakening needs

“...the next hour to merry and have fun on account of my hubby.”

Another thunderous clap erupted in the room and everyone cheered the CEO happily.

Leon raised his right hand to quieten the room and when he had achieved decorum, he gave a short appreciation speech.

“Thank you everyone for this awesome birthday surprise. I’m sincerely grateful to you all but most especially, the love of my life.” Leon planted a soft kiss on Ella’s cheek, before continuing with his speech.

“As my wife has rightly said, you have all been given strictly one hour to make merry and have some fun. However, do not forget that this is a working environment. Hence, let us behave responsibly. Do not get drunk.

Another round of applause overwhelmed the room and within a space of two minutes, the party kicked off with the popping of champagne.

Staff members and friends were seen swaying to the tune of the soft background music while socializing and filling the plates with delicious snacks.

“Happy birthday, Mr. Leon. I hope you’re not harboring any anger toward me?” Denise playfully rolled her eyes at the beautiful couple before her. She was amazed at Ella’s level of calmness. This made her wonder if Ella’s revenge mission was still on.

“Thanks, Denise. You are spared just for today.” Leon chuckled as he instantly forgave Denise for all her previous arrogance.

“Happy birthday day, bro. I think your wife needs some breathing space.” Tom teased due to the way Leon seemed glued to Ella.

“Thanks but you should mind your business,” Leon smirked. “So you were in on this surprise party and you didn’t give me a hint. I thought we were buddies.”

“Come on Leon, we are buddies for life. That can never change. Sorry, I didn’t inform you about the surprise party. That’s because I didn’t want the ladies to have my balls waxed and sun-baked.”

Tom’s reply struck a chord of laughter between the four friends.

While they were talking, Lily approached Leon as planned, and informed him of an urgent business meeting.

“Shit! I thought I rescheduled that meeting,” Leon queried in a slightly piqued tone. He had no plans of leaving his wife’s side even for a second.

“You didn’t sir,” Lily replied firmly.

“Go on baby,” Ella gently cooed into Leon’s ears. “I’ll be here for you when you come back. Don’t forget I have friends around and I intend to make more.” She nuzzled her nose against his.”

“Okay, I’ll make the meeting brief so that I can be with you. However, if you ever need me, I’ll be a phone call away.” Leon kissed her lips again before leaving with Lily.

All the while, Ella purposely stationed herself close to the entrance to the conference room. She didn’t want Xia to leave without her knowledge.
