Anna’s POV

Smith slept before me at night and he woke up before me in the morning. When I woke up, he had placed a cup of tea and a cup of water on the table at our bedside. The wall clock read ten minutes to seven. Smith must still be inside, probably in the bathroom right now. He would have given me good morning kisses, but I didn’t know, of course.

I stood up and stretched my body. I walked out of the room and the butler was walking around at that time.

“You are awake, miss,” he told me and took his eyes off me like he had seen the face of an armed robber. “Your button is off. I can see a bit of your chest.”

Saying this, the old butler left instantly. I did the buttons properly but I let it go. He was old and he couldn’t have dirty thoughts towards me. Like I thought, Smith was in the bathroom. I brushed my teeth in a separate bathroom and I also bathed there. When I had already dried my body with a towel and worn my clothes, I stepped outside and Smith was right at the dinner, hav

    Anna’s POVI shook my head in unbelief.“Say the truth, Smith. Are you really so obsessed with me or are you just pretending?” I asked him calmly. This was not a serious question but I would have appreciated truly if he gave me a proper answer.“You are all I desire, darling…” Smith told me specially. “I have all the material things I need. Just keep yourself save and give me no reason to worry. Trust me, that would be the greatest gift you could give me. Also, I will be glad if you can grant a wish of mine.”“What is it about?” I asked inquisitively. Before he talked, I noticed how he hesitated a bit. It seemed he would be raising a sensitive issue. I paid rapt attention to everything he said after.“About Charlotte and the fact that she is in a secret organization…” Smith said calmly.“How do you know about that?” I asked him hastily. No one apart from me and my bodyguards would have known about this. There had to be a leak from somewhere.“I didn’t sleep before you did yesterday,”

    Anna’s POV“I expected to get sacked actually…” I said calmly. “I can’t be the CEO of the security company and still serve as your secretary.”“I helped you do the sacking. You don’t need to go through the stress of writing a resignation letter,” Smith told me specially. “How about we talk about your progress so far? Have you found a building to use? Something big, obviously …”“The former JSS company…” I said carefully. “I learned the company went bankrupt and they put it up for sale. I already talked with an agent and I will be seeing the building for myself today. If I am satisfied, I will send the charges to you so we can get it paid for. We will move in instantly as well. I would need Jamie with me. I know he is the team leader in charge of the office security but still, I need him.”“You can have him but brace yourself to pay his salary. If you refuse to pay his salary, then I will make him my spy,” Smith told me jokingly. This got me laughing but I had it in mind. “I will send

    Anna’s POVI smiled. In most situations, money could solve everything. He was claiming he would finish it up in five days if I could add a million dollars. This would be part of the unplanned expenditure.“If you finish it in five days, are you sure there will be no problems?” I asked him carefully.“You have no reason to worry…” he told me simply. “Our company has always been the best for this kind of job. As long as there would be more money involved, we are always ready to make extra commitment. We are going to cut out nine whole days for you.”“I would give two hundred thousand. A million dollars is not something that could be dropped easily. I would give you that amount so finish up in five days and count it as a tip!” I told him firmly.“Roger that!” the specialist replied over the phone.“Then I’ll send the address…” I replied sharply.-----------------The building was paid for and work began instantly.

    Emily’s POV“It has been a long time since we met. Have you been doing well, Dan?” I asked him calmly, with a smile on my face. He smiled back at me and gestured for me to sit down. I smiled once more, gazing at him more intently than ever.“I have been working the shadows, chasing after two rats!” Dan exclaimed. “Smith and Anna are quite deeper than I have thought. Both of them won’t be broken randomly. If we wish to end their relationship, we will need to go the extreme.”“I want Smith for myself…” I replied honestly. “I have kept a watch on him and from my spy in their mansion, both of them are in love. We need to separate them in order to get each down. Anna needs Smith and if she is torn apart from him, she would never be able to survive.”“Keep it on the low. This bar has frequenters from different places,” Dan told me simply. He took a deep breath and continued. “I have thought about our previous deal but it seems I am getting the short stick even though I am the top contributo

    Dan’s POVI was going to have all I wanted in my grasp. I wanted Emily too but I would never let her know. It was all lust and I mentioned it thrice but I knew if I enjoyed the first night, I would end up pestering for more. Even if she got married, I could still threaten her. There was CCTV in my room and it would be great for such.I carried her and dropped her on the bed like she was a piece of garbage. She closed her eyes and I used the momentum to remove my clothes and throw them away.“You’ve got to be active in bed, darling. Make me satisfied and thrice is all you would pay…” I told her calmly. I engaged her in a breathtaking kiss that surprised me myself. From the way she even reacted, she must have been waiting for this for a long while. She wrapped her hands around my neck while I got wild. I left her lips and started to kiss her on the neck, leaving goosebumps all over her body. She seemed to be in deep pleasure as she wrapped her legs over me too.I was naked already but s

Smith supported me all through and since the whole world knew about us, there were a lot of reporters around on the big day. The real drama did not begin until the next day. I was going to become a real CEO. I would have gotten a driver but I could not trust anyone for now. Andy ended up being my driver to the company.“Charlotte is back at the company and even though Mr. Smith knows her to be a spy, he still acts carefree when he’s with her. She has gotten closer to William lately and I believe he will see the root of this matter very soon…” Andy reported as he drove the car.“Forget about them for a moment…” I told him calmly. “What is the order at the security company? We need to gain a good reputation beforehand.”“We have the best hands,” Andy told me. “There are a hundred trusted agents for now but only twenty are truly skilled. The remaining eight needs to be p

Andy and White Shark already guessed something was wrong and they went with me quickly.“Hey, Hibiscus!” I called him as I entered the control room. “Remember one Mrs. Yang. Connect to her place right now. I need a live recording. Her husband has just been threatened and her life is in danger. Reach out to the police as well and send over her address.”“I understand. I am not as you wish…” Hibiscus replied and started dishing instructions to the others. I turned to Andy now.“Where is Wolf and Valentine?” I asked carefully.“Valentine is out for now. He is with a VIP client of ours. As for Wolf, he should be in the training hall…” Andy reported.“Bring Wolf in right away. He will lead our reinforcements to the place and bring back Mrs. Yang here. White Shark, you will have a control unit to handle. Please update Wolf about this. The policemen there are fake and they are only waiting for an order to kill her. The r

    Dan’s POV“Code RED. Mission Failed.”This was the message I read. It was sent to me by Anonymous, the one in charge of our secret organisation. Seeing this made me breathe heavily. Since my father became sick and temporarily handed the organisation for me to handle, things had been going sour. At this rate, my father might hand it over to my step-sister, Charlotte, whom he had always praised instead of me.I called him instantly to discuss this.“I need to see you right now! You know my house, don’t you? Come and meet me,” I told him over the phone.“There is a reason why I am called Anonymous, you know. In the organisation, only two people have seen me…” he replied firmly. He was indirectly telling me he would be unable to see me.“Father and Charlotte. They must be those two people…” I replied angrily.“Nah…” he told me. “The first is the big boss, your father. The second person died the moment he saw me. I don’t think you should see me now. In this world, only one person should kn

His car has been destroyed by the explosion and he has confirmed the death of Mark and the other guys. However, he has no car and he is still bleeding.”“Send White Shark to help him now!” I exclaimed. “Also, I never thought of this but now is the best time to end this. Send the anonymous tip to our man in the police. Dan needs to be rooted out tonight for sure. Tell them he plans to escape tonight as well.”“I will rush there to provide support instantly,” White Shark reported.I waited for two minutes before Hibiscus gave his latest report.“I have sent the anonymous tip and I have given Dan’s address. They will be there in fifteen minutes,” Hibiscus replied. “Also, Valentine is back at headquarters. He is recuperating for now.”“Where is the nearest seaport from Dan’s place?” I asked her carefully. “I don’t care where

    Anna’s POVYes, it was time to end it all and put them to rest as well. This had to be done delicately. Mark had to come by himself.“How do we bring him in, ma’am?” Hibiscus asked me carefully.“Yeah, he had a phone with only three contact numbers. I think sending a photo of his death will connect us with Mr. Anonymous…” I replied carefully.“It probably will but it might also turn chaotic. There will be more than one person to confront and it is nothing good, you know,” White Shark replied carefully. He already knew he would be leading this operation.“That is why we cannot confront them normally. We will put Daniel Locke’s body in the house I was kidnapped and taken to and also, we will have bombs all around. I don’t know where to get bombs but you can, right?” I asked them carefully.“It is illegal but I have a private dealer. I will work things over with him and set things up within two hours,” White Shark told me calmly. “That saying, I am to detonate the bomb when I see Mark en

My husband is there too, right?”“He is,” White Shark replied. “Also, he has been strange. He knew before you were attacked so he must have gotten the information from someone else. I asked about the person who told him about the attack but he has been keeping the secret. To avoid matters getting out of hand, I gave no information to him when we were going to rescue you. He will find out when you get back.”I sighed.“Don’t make things too complicated…” I replied. “My husband is not someone that would betray me or any other person. I will find out the truth when I get back so remain calm until then.”----------------When the car stopped at the headquarters, I entered with a classy feeling. I was confident and this topped my personal charts. I entered and I was welcomed by the agents at the headquarters. Hi

  • A Bride For The Bankrupt Billionaire    Hunting Game

    Anna’s POVThe men who kidnapped me were all gazing at me. For sure, they would think I was crazy. Truly, a person who was kidnapped should not have such nerve. I would need to show them how different I was from them. I didn’t have to panic because of them. Although I wasn’t confident that I wouldn’t get killed, I had faith in Smith and my other men. Surely, White Shark and Hibiscus would be listening to my voice right now. They would save me for sure.“None of these men knows my name!” he told me coldly. “There are four of them but they call me captain and nothing more. Please, stop talking about my name or I’ll be forced to deal with you harshly.”Then I remembered. The most core value of their organisation was secrecy and I could make him do something he would regret if he got angry.“Oh dear!” I exclaimed. “Your captain’s name used to be Daniel Locke but he bears John Locke right now. He is an adult movie star. Go to porn hub and search for his name. He is not too popular but he h

If you want money, we’ll pay. Please, remove the bombs and let’s sort this out properly.”“We came here for a mission and it is to kill the person you badly wish to protect. I have no reason to kill you as well so you can pay a million dollars for your freedom…” the leader of the men outside said carefully. I looked at Andy carefully and he nodded pitifully.“I don’t have that much on my bank account but I have it in a safe in my house. I can only wire two hundred thousand dollars right now. If you want a million dollars, you can go to my house,” Andy said carefully.“Two hundred thousand dollars sounds great!” the leader exclaimed. “However, how about a better deal. You don’t get

As for Wolf, do you have any requests?”“I need some men on standby,” Wolf replied. “The men in Dan’s mansion do not look friendly at all and if I am found out by any means, I have no means of escaping. It is better I leave now before my identity is uncovered. Please, send some men over.”“I will consider,” I replied.“Please,” Wolf begged over the call. “I have a bad feeling about this. Trust me, I am fearless but I also take my instincts seriously. We can do this some other time. I need to get out of here but without those men catching onto me.”I took a deep breath.“Hey, White Shark! Are you on the call too?” I asked.“I am…” White Shark replied. “I guess you wish to know what I think about Wolf’s request. I am right, aren’t I?”“You are,” I smiled. I do this regularly these days. “Let me know what you think about this. It might influence my decision a great deal so tell me wh

    Anna’s POV“We have a problem, boss,” White Shark stormed into my office. The fact that he called me ‘boss’ made me lit up a smile. It was unexpected but it also felt good for him to acknowledge me. He was formerly one of those men that never believed a lady could be good in other things except on the bed and in the kitchen. I must have changed his mindset. Anyway, he said there was a problem and I needed to hear.“What’s the problem? I’m busy, you know,” I told him carefully.“It is related to this current case and I think we have been found out…” White Shark replied. “I was tailing the CEO of AKS Group as you instructed and I made sure I wasn’t noticed by any of his bodyguards. However, he had secret bodyguards. They weren’t normal bodyguards which I could shake off like that. They seemed to be mercenaries from that secret organisation. I have left no traces though. They shot at my car too even though I never attacked them first.”“Spying on their financier is the same thing as atta

Since I shed your identity to the other guys, how many attempted murders has occurred?”“It was only yesterday,” Mark replied calmly. “No one knows if I will be killed tomorrow. You don’t understand how things works here. I can see the reason why your father does not trust you. You might be the end of this organization.”I slapped him. I knew he could have moved before then but he stood there, breathing hard. I was scared he would punch me but he only stood there. I was the one who slapped him but I was the one afraid. Sammie was still in the room and I could not bear to act like a weakling.“Listen up!” I shouted at him. “I am not a perfect human and no one is perfect. If I am lacking, you tell me instead of telling me I am not capable. Do you know how much it hurts? You should know already.”“I fucking know!” Mark shouted in the loudes

I heaved a sigh now.“You have never called me for something good. It is always a problem. This must be what made my father age so quickly and even fall sick. Some rest and peace would have been so helpful…” I told him carefully over the phone.“But you still need to listen. There is a reason to believe that someone wants to hurt our financier. Do you remember him? The CEO of AKS Group is the person I mean…” Mark told me carefully. “He is a billionaire and he has bodyguards watching over him. However, our organization provided some undercover mercenaries to keep him safe. Today, they discovered someone watching him.”“Did you capture the person?” I asked shortly.“Unfortunately, we were unable to capture the person behind this.
