Page 3 of The CEO

Finishing off my drink, I took a deep breath. “I walked out into my office tucking my dick into my pants and there she stood.”

“What? Why?” He laughed out. He barely got the words out he was laughing so hard.

“Why what? Why was she in my office? Good question. My secretary let her in my office. She didn’t even announce her. Hence, why Ms. Wang saw more than she bargained for.”

“Maybe you’re upset because she saw your wang wasn’t so big after all.” Ty laughed to himself.

“Not the case, asshole, and you know it.”

“If you say so. Did you end up having the meeting?”

“I did. It wasn’t as successful as she wanted, but I think I found the new head of my HR department.”

“You’re going to hire a woman you think is hot and gets you hard as the head of HR? I’m not sure that’s a very good idea.”

“You’re probably right, but it’s a risk I’m willing to take.” Even if I have a hard-on all day while at work.

“Just remember not to whack off at work.” Ty laughed and finished his drink.

Of course, that would be the moment our waiter brought our dishes to our table. He had a questionable look on his face but didn’t say anything. “Can I get you anything else?”

I ordered another drink to try to forget the week I’d had at work. “I’ll try to keep that in mind, but it’s not like I’ll be seeing her every day. I’m the boss. I don’t do Human Resources.”

“Oh, King.” Ty shook his head. “I have a feeling you’ll be seeing her more than you realize.” Holding his finger up, Ty pulled his phone out of his pocket and smiled down at it. After typing out a message, he put his phone down on the table and took a bite of his steak. “I’m going to have to cut our dinner short.”

“Really? Trouble?”

Ty smiled wickedly at me from across the table. “Only the best kind.”

“Do tell. I have to say, I’ve noticed you seem different tonight.”

His brows furrowed. “Different in a good way?”

“Yeah, you seem happy. Lighter. It looks good on you.”

Ty hadn’t had the easiest of lives. At only twenty-five, he had already had and beaten cancer. Still my best friend never let him get anything get him down.

“When I came to you about taking over Penelope’s company, we didn’t get to catch up. We should make time every once in a while.”

“I’d like that.” After Elias Titan died at an early age and Ty’s cancer, it made me realize I needed to seize every day as if it weremy last and not take for granted the people who were in my life. I had a feeling Ty had the same epiphany. “You didn’t answer what’s got you like this.”

“You’ll never believe it.” He smiled wide and tapped his finger on the screen of his phone. “I met a woman and settled down. She’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”

“Wait, are you married?” My gaze went to his left hand and found it ringless.

“Not yet, but I do plan to ask her to marry me. She’s it for me.

“I never thought I’d see you settle down, but damn if it looks like that, maybe I need to think about finding me a woman.”

“Maybe Ms. Wang?” He smirked before placing his credit card in the bill sleeve.

“I guess I can’t convince you to stay for a cigar.” I motioned to the bill.

“Not tonight. Sadie’s waiting for me and I don’t want to leave her waiting for long.” A gleam came into his eyes. I knew that look. He was thinking about his woman naked.

The waiter brought Ty’s credit card back and thanked us before leaving us to ourselves once again.

“I’ll let you get home to your woman.” I stood and held my hand out for him to shake.
