CEO's Contract Obsession-Chapter 193: Reserved for Mistresses

Mary stirred from her slumber and her senses came alive after hearing the water sound coming from the shower. She just remembered this is not her room.

She looked at the sofa and it was cleared away. She stood up and took her phone from her bag to check her messages. Mary grinned ear to ear after reading the delightful news.

Sandra: [Girls, Amy is awake and well. Rei texted me. We will go there ASAP.]

Maya: [I will follow sis. I just need to go through some documents with Theo.]

Mary: [It is indeed a good morning! @Amy be ready! Will go there and bother you! Love lots!]

Mary then texted Alice and Robert to give them the good news and before she can finish checking her other messages, the door of the bathroom opened.

She looked up instinctively and saw Anton’s wet hair and bare chest with only the towel covering his lower body. Unfortunately or rather fortunately for her, she was standing in front of the walk-in closet’s door, the reason Anton stopped right in front of her.

Mary just stood there, paralyzed by the wonderful sight. Her eyes traveled from his dripping blonde hair to his perfectly contoured chest, sculpted V-line, and until below his waist, which was unluckily for her, covered with a white towel.

She gulped after realizing what she is doing. She focused her eyes again on Anton’s face to only find him smirking at her.

"So what do you think?" He asked as he wipe his damp hair with a smaller towel.

"T-Think about what?" Mary stammered, her voice betraying a mixture of confusion and a struggle to focus on his question rather than the captivating sight before her.

She made a valiant effort to gather her thoughts and resist the distraction that threatened to pull her attention away from his face and back to his bare body.

"What do you think about what you were staring at..." Anton teased.

Mary frowned, and her face becomes red, she was caught red-handed at the worst time possible.

"I-I t-think you are perfectly fit and healthy. You can be a supermodel with a body like that. It will make you rich and famous," Mary blurted and pinch herself inwardly for saying such.

Anton grinned, this is the first time that he had guessed correctly what was on her mind.

"Is that so? I was actually talking about the message you are reading on your phone, I saw you smiling while looking at it," Anton lied. He wanted to test how she will react to his teasing.

Mary’s eyes widened in horror. She was not only caught in the act or she assumed she was, but she also vocally admitted it. Her red face became redder like a tomato and she don’t know what to say.

Anton leaned forward, and a surge of anticipation coursed through her veins, causing her body to stiffen with a mix of nervousness and excitement. Her eyes were fixated on his approaching face and her heart was pounding in her chest.

Her mind drew vivid images of him, half-naked and herself standing mere inches away. The electric tension she was feeling intensified as she wondered what actions he would take next.

They were alone in his room and definitely physically and emotionally attracted to each other.

Mary closed her eyes as Anton’s face come closer and closer, she heard a clicking sound of a doorknob before Anton cleared his throat. Mary opened her eyes and saw Anton looking at her. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"I-I need to get dressed, you are standing in front of the door," Anton uttered with a blank face.

"Oh! Yeah, right. Please go ahead..." Mary stepped to the side, making a sweeping gesture with her hand, telling Anton to enter.

"You can use the shower. There are some towels in the cabinet there. Feel free to use anything you like," Anton beamed brightly after walking past her.

’She was expecting me to kiss her... I will surely give you one very soon...’ Anton said to himself.

Mary exhaled loudly and hold onto her chest after Anton had closed the door. Her heart was beating really fast.

"Three points, Mary... you got three points of humiliation today!" Mary said to herself before she took her clothes with her to the shower, the ones she got from her office before coming to Anton’s penthouse last night.

Anton’s mother lived up to expectations as breakfast was already prepared when they reached the dining area.

Mary’s eyes lit up with delight as she inhaled the mouthwatering aroma wafting from the different dishes laid out before them. "This smells delicious!" Mary exclaimed, thoroughly savoring the delectable smell.

Anton’s mother expressed her gratitude with a warm smile, acknowledging Mary’s compliment. "I’ve heard your mother is a chef. I’m sure she’s an exceptional cook," she remarked, taking a seat beside Mary while Roana settled down opposite them, next to Anton.

Mary reached for the plate of eggs intending to offer one to Anton, but before she could, Roana proactively placed some sausages onto Anton’s plate. Mary arched an eyebrow in surprise and shifted her gaze towards Anton, who remained fixed on his plate, seemingly lost in thought.

Mary discreetly faked an accidental kick to his leg, causing him to jolt and divert his attention towards her. Flashing an awkward smile, she couldn’t hide her evident irritation as she returned the plate of eggs to the table.

With a gentle grip on her arm, Anton exclaimed, "Wait, what about my eggs? I was eagerly waiting for you to serve me some." A sweet smile adorned his face as he looked at Mary.

Without hesitation, she obliged and promptly scooped some eggs onto Anton’s plate.

Mary turned her gaze towards Roana and remarked, her tone laced with a hint of sarcasm, "Oh, Roana, don’t forget about me. Shouldn’t I get some sausages too? I believe serving food to someone else’s boyfriend alone is a job reserved for mistresses. Or am I just too old-fashioned?"

"I-I would want some too, dear," Anton’s mother said.

The atmosphere in the dining room grew increasingly uncomfortable, but Anton and his parents remained unfazed by the tension. In fact, they found themselves appreciating Mary’s assertiveness and the way she unapologetically expressed her affection for their son in front of Roana and her family.

To them, it was a testament to Mary’s commitment and devotion, and they admired how she boldly claimed her place by Anton’s side.

Roana mustered an awkward smile as she served sausages onto their plates. Mary’s eyes darted back to Anton, noting his apparent lack of concern. However, Mary had no intention of letting the situation slide. She was determined to address the matter, unwilling to allow any lingering doubts or concerns to go unresolved.
