Anna’s POV:“Both of you met yesterday!” Charlotte exclaimed. I thought Smith would lie but he didn’t. Now, Charlotte would suspect us and make it easier to find out our relationship.“I got a call that she had been admitted in the hospital. She seemed to have collapsed on the way due to stress and exhaustion. They had to reach her family and when they learned that she was coming to work, they called me since she saved my contact as ‘boss’…” Smith said calmly. I was so shocked with the way he dropped that lie. I now had to follow up.“Really? You should have told us. We were also worried when you didn’t come back until the day ended, boss,” Charlotte said. She seemed to care about me with the way she slurred her words.“I know, right?” I stepped in to the issue. “Boss is a caring man and he actually waited for me to regain consciousness. I have no one, you know. No friends and my family are not nearby. He even got his driver to take me home!”Charlotte smiled happily. I watched as she
Anna’s POV“He caught her?!” I asked in a loud voice. My heart was racing at this point. The realization of this made me feel bad. I didn’t care that it was before he met me.“He did!” Charlotte replied. “It was after a meeting and I don’t know why boss had been observing her. He was staring at her back though I do not know what he was looking at exactly. It could be her back, her hair, her legs, or her butt!”I felt angered.“He couldn’t have been staring at her flat ass!” I exclaimed in anger.“He could have…” Charlotte replied. “Men are men and they would always be men. When that gender is hard, they don’t care. Beautiful or ugly. Slim, fat or chubby. Tall, short, or a dwarf. Curvy or straight. As long as you are a female, they are good to go!”“I don’t believe that. They should have preferences…” I said shortly.“Elena has always been attractive!” Charlotte told me confidently. “She don’t have a flat ass. There is still some flesh there. It is not bony and you know it.”“When I sa
Anna's POV “Oh, I understand…” Charlotte rushed and held my hand. “You can leave at any time, okay? Let's just go clubbing! The thing is that it starts officially by eight. That's when the real party begins!” “I will think about it but I'm gonna leave for now. The meeting will start soon so you should go to put things in place as well…” I told her carefully. This was how I was set free from Charlotte's hook for now. I would have to tell Smith if I wanted to go clubbing. It was not a choice for me. It was compulsory since he was my husband. I decided not to talk about what I had learned about Smith and Elena for now. It was in the past so it didn't matter but I would still tease Smith about it once I found out the whole truth. I prepared for the meeting since we had been told the time already. I saw Elena earlier. She said ‘hi’ before I did so I guess she had forgotten about what I did to her the day before yesterday. It was nice to let things go actually. Some minutes before the
Anna's POVThe door opened and my bodyguard, William, stepped in. He was dressed in a very nice suit. “Hello, My name is William and I am the new intern!” I heard him say. I was caught unaware here. I had even forgotten that he was supposed to get to the office before I did. I could see Charlotte smiling sheepishly at him. She held me and whispered into my ears. “He is handsome and my heart tells he has a very nice build. Don't you think he will be single?” Charlotte whispered in my ears. This made me smile. “What if he has a girlfriend already?” I whispered back. “Then I will have to steal him!” She replied. Smith caught us and we had to compose ourselves. It was like the normal activity. All of us had to introduce ourselves like we did when I just joined the team. William took his seat beside Alexander who explained the mission we had. His role was suppose to assist all of us. Charlotte kept looking at him in admiration. I could only shake my head. “Anna, I would like you to t
Anna’s POV“I have thought about it truly…” I told her shortly. “Let’s have dinner after work. I will make the decision after we have eaten and you have told me all I need to know.”Charlotte ran to me and held my hand. She was smiling sheepishly here. She acts childish at times and I was already aware.“You know I am very great at convincing people. You have gone with me already. Don’t think about any other thing. I won’t ask you some questions here because I am afraid you will cancel. However, you need to change or shall we go shopping? We can’t wear these dresses. The only way this would work is if we both go home and change…” Charlotte said shortly.“I am not interested in wearing short and skimpy clothes…” I told her confidently. Even if I was not claiming this, I was still a married woman. Smith won’t like me flaunting my body to other men.“I am sure you have no such clothes as well…” Charlotte said carefully. “Let’s just drive to my house. I will change and I can even lend you
Smith’s POVAfter Anna had stepped out of my office, I began to think. She had chosen Charlotte over me and this was bad enough. I was not happy at all but I knew I had to try my best not to show it. If I loved her like I supposed, I should sacrifice my personal satisfaction for her happiness. She might be unhappy even if she went with me. It was better she went clubbing even though I disliked it. I wanted her to be with me and no other person.But I had made a crucial choice and that was to let her be. Like she said, we could postpone it to another weekend for sure even though I wanted it now. There was nothing I could do since it was fixed now.------------We closed from work and everyone proceeded to go home. Anna had told me what she wanted to do so I just drove home. I made sure to tell William not to reveal himself for now. Since he would be following Andy to protect Anna, he had to be careful not to be caught. Charlotte was very smart and it would take her nothing to connect t
Anna’s POVI had a hard time selecting a restaurant to take Charlotte to. For the first time, I was going to spend my money. I have been dependent on Smith since and I didn’t even use up the pocket money he gives me. I had been saving up to buy him something as well. My plan was to wait for my monthly salary and then surprise him. Anyways, I finally chose Splezi restaurant and I drove there. Charlotte was not a foodie and she ordered sparsely. I was the same as well. She talked so much with her mouth but enough food went in there.“So, let me tell you about my boss and Elena…” Charlotte said slowly. “It is better I say it now before we both go to the club and get drunk and high.”“You are getting ‘high’ alone, girl. I will be driving and I don’t plan on getting a bit drunk. Just tell me the story…” I replied. Charlotte smiled at me and started.“After that fainting incident, they seemed to have bonded. Boss didn’t come back to work on that day. It seemed she waited for her to get bett
Anna’s POVI was busted.I never imagined something like this would happen to me. If Dan truly told Smith that he brought me to a restaurant, he would be here in no time. Smith was a jealous man and he wouldn’t be able to take it at all.I thought about what to do now. Charlotte had found out I had a husband which was enough of a crisis. It would not be funny if she finds out that it is Smith whom she knew as her boss. She was talkative and it would mean that every other person would know about the secret.I knew Andy would be in a car there. I had to call Smith and explain things to him. If he revealed himself, it would make things wild. I tried to go out but Dan held me back.In that split second, the restaurant’s main door opened and Smith came inside. His aura was everything. I bit my lip now since the whole secret has been exposed. He walked up to me and separated my hand from Dan’s own.“I told you that I was…” Dan was saying but Smith didn’t let him complete the statement. He p
Anna’s POV“Mission complete from Wolf but he is in danger. He has been shot by a hostile,” Hibiscus reported. “He was shot on the stomach but it avoided his vitals. 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
Anna’s POV“I know him already. He is the captain, Daniel Locke…” I replied. “Hey, White Shark, prepare the interrogation room. I will speak to him when we get to the headquarters. 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
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
Anna’s POVThe driver with shaky hands turned on outside communication mode. Now, I could talk and those people could hear. Andy took charge now.“Hey, you should stop this now…” Andy told them carefully. “I am sure you know the person I am transporting. If you didn’t know, you won’t bother doing this much. 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
Anna’s POV“Oh! That’s nice!” I exclaimed. “Find out the fellow and report to me before any other person. 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
Dan’s POV“Hey!” I shouted. “I know you don’t have any regard for me but just shut your lying tongue or I will cut it out. I never put you in danger. 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
Dan’s POV“We have a problem!” Mark told me over the phone. He was formerly known as Anonymous to me before I got to know his true identity. 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. Our men managed to capture the plate number and we are currently tracking the owner of the car. We need your directives
