Unexpectedly Loved By The CEO - Chapter 89
I’m very sorry for having a replayed chapter because I do have a lot of school works these days and also I’m doing my research paper. I promise to update new chapters every day once I finished these.

Chapter 63: A Big Sister’s Nightmare Part 2
…
It has been two days but I haven’t talked to my sister or to Kellen yet. I still can’t think straight. My hands always start to shake whenever I remember Summer’s true identity. But if I tell her, would she want to meet her family?
It’s already 6:00 AM and Summer always leaves for school this early. I’ve been thinking that I should go back to work and act normal. I shouldn’t be suspicious but what will I tell Kellen if he asked? And especially if Summer did. I don’t know if I should lie again but I’m definitely sure that I can’t tell the truth. I can’t.
I took a bath before eating my breakfast. I just ate cereal with milk before changing into my office clothes. I brushed my teeth and fixed my hair into a clean ponytail before going out of my apartment and called a cab.
While I was inside, I decided that I should visit my mom and dad’s grave even just for ten minutes. I told the driver to take me to the cemetery instead so he did. After five minutes of driving, I paid the driver and I got out of the cab. I walked until I’m already in front of their gravestones.
“Hey, mom. Hey, dad.” I sighed before kneeling slightly because my skirt might expose me. “I just wanted to ask for help. A sign, perhaps. Should I tell Summer? Or should I just wait for it to come out?”
I feel sad every time I remember that maybe one day, I will just lose Summer. I don’t want her to be away from me because she is the only memory I have left of my mommy and daddy even if she is not a real blood relative. She is my change and nothing will change that.
I stared at their grave for a few more minutes while still wondering what I should do. Maybe so, I’ll just wait for the signs before I take action because I don’t want to regret the decision I’ll make someday.
Feeling a little better, I took another cab so I can go to the hotel to resume my work. I also lost two days and I expect more papers waiting for me. I just wish Kellen wouldn’t force me to explain and talk about how I behaved in the past few days. But I also promise myself that I will not leave him confused because of what happened to me. Only then will I explain when my mind is clear.
When I entered the hotel I immediately sighed because I was suddenly nervous. I wondered what I would answer in case Kellen ever asked about me. Will he be angry? Would he be annoyed when I said I didn’t want to talk about it first? Ever since he became my boyfriend, we couldn’t help but have a fight from time to time. That’s the thing I don’t want to happen because that becomes the reason why I can’t eat and sleep properly.
When I got to my cabin I avoided to look at Kellen’s office. I’m sure he saw me come because the door in front of me was glass. I lower my bag first before I pick up the tablet to show him his schedule for today. Before I entered, I took a deep breath because I might run out of air inside again.
When I entered he was signing some papers and I think he just did that so that the situation would not be awkward. Does that mean, he’s not angry? Or did I just assume that?
“Good morning,” I greeted him nicely. I didn’t call him ‘Kellen’ because it was too personal for the situation now and especially I didn’t say ‘Sir’ because he might think I hate him or he might also think he did something bad even though he didn’t. “This is your schedule for today,” I said softly before handing the tablet to him.
He just nodded and immediately took the tablet in my hand. It took a while before he gave it back to me so I looked a bit stupid at first because I didn’t know if I would avoid looking at him or what. When he handed me the tablet he looked at me and I didn’t look away anymore because he might get suspicious.
“Are you okay now?” he asked me and I nodded immediately. “Okay,” he said briefly before returning the focus on signing the papers on his desk.
Yes. I think he’s mad at me.
I went back to my cabin and I’ll try to do two daily reports that I haven’t done in the past few days. Hopefully I’ll finish it before lunch break so I don’t have to worry about anything later because it’s scheduled later that we’re going to New Jersey.
I wanted to forget the things I found out so I distracted myself by putting double effort into the reports. What if Kellen found out about Summer’s true identity? Will he take my sister from me? Can’t I be with her anymore?
That’s what I’m afraid of but there’s a part of me that says Kellen also has the right to know the truth. The only problem is that the bigger part of my decision is to just hide it because I don’t want Summer to be separated from me. That’s the nightmare I don’t have to have.
A few hours have passed and now we are going to have lunch. Alice went to me immediately because she must have noticed that I had walked to the pantry earlier. I also didn’t tell her that I was going to work today.
“Liv, are you okay now? You still look like you’re out of energy,” she said before putting her hand on my forehead, feeling if I still have a fever. I didn’t really get sick but I think that’s what she thought because I said I don’t feel too well so I couldn’t go to work. I still can’t tell her about Summer because I’m still not comfortable with the idea that someone else knows about it besides me.
“Yes. I feel fine,” I replied to her as I arranged my reports and put them in a folder.
“Are you going to have lunch with your boss slash boyfriend?” she asked me. I honestly don’t know if we should eat together. Wouldn’t it be awkward then?
“I don’t know. But I’ll just ask him where he wants to order food and I’ll just make a food delivery,” I replied before placing the folders in the cabinet.
“What? Why?” she asked in astonishment. “Did you two fight? Are you avoiding each other?” she asked further.
“No,” I replied. “I’m just not in the mood.”
When I got back to the desk I was about to pick up my bag when she stopped me. “No, let’s not have lunch together first. You should eat with you boyfriend so you could talk to each other too. Don’t exaggerate the misunderstanding you have now because that won’t be good. Just let me know later if the two of you had talked properly,” Alice said. I didn’t do anything and said nothing so I just nodded before she left.
I sighed before entering Kellen’s office. I found him sleeping on his desk. Maybe he was tired because of the amount of paper work he had to do when he was alone because I wasn’t there. I approached and stood in front of him before I called him.
“Kellen.” I couldn’t help but call his name. “It’s lunch time. What do you want to eat?” I asked him softly.
He didn’t answer right away so I came over to touch his shoulder. He doesn’t seem to be in a deep sleep so I’m not worried that I might wake him up.
“Kellen,” I call to him again. “Are you tired?”
He suddenly grabbed my hand while still leaning on his desk. “I’m not tired, Liv. You? Are you tired of me already?”
