It's already the next day since I sent that email yet there was no response whatsoever.But really what did I expect? After composing such a silly message the most realistic outcome was that my email would be disregarded and definitely marked as spam. Even still, I couldn't stop the tiny flame of hope burning inside of me. just maybe that simple email could change my life forever…"You seem to be lost in thought more frequently than usual lately," Fred commented accusingly.His possible guess was that my mind was wrapped around the "Stephano issue", and well he wasn't wrong…"I was thinking of a new skin care routine I've been dying to test out" I lied effortlessly and got up from our bed."And should that explain why you have been constantly checking your phone? don't think I didn't notice all that" Fred retorted."I was just checking the time to make sure I wasn't going to make Fiona get

FIONA'S POVAs our kiss grew more passionate, Aiden's hands roamed over my body, exploring every inch of me. I couldn't believe how turned on I was by this stranger, but I couldn't deny the way my body was responding to him. Aiden pulled away from the kiss, his eyes dark with desire. "Let's take this to your room," he whispered, taking my hand and leading me out of the kitchen. We made our way up the stairs, our bodies pressed close togetherMy heart was racing as we entered my bedroom, and Aiden wasted no time in pulling me into another passionate kiss.

FIONA'S POVI felt like I was in a nightmare. Working under Aiden, the man I had just slept with? It was too much to handle. I couldn't do it. "I can't work under Aiden," I said, my voice shaking with fear. "Why not? He's a successful businessman, and he could teach you a lot," Huston said, trying to reason with me. "I just can't," I replied, feeling tears prick at the corners of my eyes."Don't be dramatic Fiona. or do you prefer to work under my company instead?" my father asked."Mom!" I exclaimed, begging her to do something."It's for the best sweetheart," my mom whispered.Fuck! work under my dad and have him tell me what to do every goddamn time? oh hell no! don't get me wrong, I love my dad but when it comes to business, I rather not see that side of him. He becomes extremely strict and cold, and I don't admire that part of him. Working under Aiden seemed like a much better choice, and as much as it pains me to agree to it, I've got to pick him."I'll go to the interview fo
FIONA'S POVI felt my face flush with embarrassment and anger. How could he say something like that? Especially after what happened between us last night. I stood up, ready to leave, but Aiden grabbed my wrist, pulling me back down into my seat. "Relax, Fiona. I'm just teasing," he said, a smirk on his face. "I don't appreciate being spoken to like that," I said, trying to keep my voice steady. "I apologize if I offended you. It won't happen again," Aiden said, his tone sincere. I nodded, feeling relieved. I couldn't let his inappropriate comment ruin my new job. "Thank you," I said, standing up to leave. "I look forward to working with you," Aiden said, standing up as well. "Same here," I replied, trying to sound enthusiastic. While I walked out of his office, I couldn't help but feel conflicted. On one hand, I was thrilled to have landed the job and excited to learn from someone as successful as Aiden. On the other hand, I couldn't shake the feeling that he was going to be d
Fiona's POV "What is going on here?!" a loud voice shouted in anger making us part away quickly. Well fuck!It was a fuming blonde girl, who had walked in on us. She looked furious, her eyes narrowed in anger. I felt my face flush with embarrassment as I tried to compose myself. I couldn't help but feel threatened by her beauty, she was a stunning woman with long blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. Aiden quickly stood up, trying to regain his composure. "Candice, this is Fiona, my assistant," he said, trying to sound casual. "Assistant? Is that what you're calling her now?" Candice sneered, her eyes flickering with anger. "I don't appreciate your tone, Candice. Fiona is a valued member of my team," Aiden said, his tone firm.Candice scoffed, rolling her eyes. "Valued member of your team? More like a valued member of your bed," she spat, her words dripping with venom. I felt my face flush with embarrassment and anger. How dare she speak to me like that? I may have been involved
FIONA’S POVI knew that Aiden was right. We had work to do and we couldn't let our personal feelings get in the way of that. But it was hard to focus on work when all I could think about was Aiden and his confession. As we sat down at our desks and started going through our tasks for the day, I couldn't help but steal glances at him. He was so handsome and charming, and it was clear that he had a way of making me feel special.By the time I got back home it was already a bit late but surprisingly my parents were both seated in the living room together with Houston. They had the look on their face that just made me know they had something to say to me. But whatever it is, it would have to wait because I was determined on freshening up first.I quickly excused myself and headed to my room to freshen up. As I stood in front of the mirror, I couldn't help but think about Aiden and his confession. Part of me was thrilled that he felt the same way as I did, but another part of me was disappo
