Chapter 214: Strength Of A Woman

Derek would never ever, understand women. It was not an easy admission to make. In fact, acknowledging that fact stung.

Derek Haven was not one to admit defeat in anything. But on this front he had to admit that there was nothing to be done. He had to accept the loss.

When he did not understand something, Derek remedied that by applying himself. He took a complex problem. Broke it down into smaller pieces, and then studied each one in detail. Not stopping until he had mastered each small piece, and thus the whole thing.

That was his tried and tested strategy. It had gotten him through many a situation. And he had always believed that with that mindset, there was nothing he could ever fail to understand. But now his strategy had hit a stumbling block. One that he could not overcome.

And that block was women. 

Not just women at random, one particular woman.

His personal assistant, and sleeping partner…one Emily Molson.
