"All the participants did a really good job in this first round. I would like to welcome you all once again. And congratulations for coming this far." Mrs Latina said while looking at all the girls who participated in the contest and now standing on the stage, in front of them. They were all waiting patiently for the result which held their presence on the stage in future.
"It was nice meeting you all but it's really sad that we have to abide by the rules to choose the best one which means we have to say goodbye to some of the contestants today only. Hope we will meet again sometime in the future somewhere." Mr Johnson said while smiling at all of them.
"Coming to the results, we didn't select anyone in order. There isn't any position I'm this result which we are going to let out now. No one is first, second or anything in this around. We just selected the finalists for the next round, that's it." This time Mr Smith said with a smile b
"Thank you so much for your time, Mr Domanco. I really appreciate you coming here. I won't take your precious time anymore by giving you excuses. I would just like to request you all to please give me and my company another chance and extend the deadline for one month more." James said with a lot of sincerity. There were four men and one woman from The Domancos in the meeting. They were having the meeting in the Jones Cooperation's meeting room. The environment of the room was really tense and it made James feel really intimidated. James Jones, a famous businessman of New York, owner of one of the biggest construction buildings around the country. He had recently signed a contract with 'The Domancos' to build their new hotel and for some reason, he failed to complete the construction of the hotel by the deadline which has never happened before. But this time it happened and he doesn't know but a lot is going on behind this fa
"Thanks for picking me up, Bella." Chloe said in a grumpy tone after getting inside the car and wrapping the seat belt around her. Bella is her best friend. They have been friends forever, since their childhood. Bella is her partner in crime. She has been part of Chloe's every craziness. They did everything together. Starting from going outside the country to study in the same university to creating every single problem. Bella gave her a weird look before starting up the car, driving away from Chloe's father's office premises. "I saw your car parked there. What happened to it? And why are you in such a foul mood?" Bella asked in a soft yet curious tone. She predicted her best friend's mood already and she doesn't want to take the risk of irritating her more than she already was for some reason. Even though Chloe and Bella are best friends, they are polar opposite. If C
"You must be thinking what did you just do." Chloe jumped after hearing the new voice and turned to her right to see a man, nearly at the age of her father, smiling at her. Before she could analyze the meaning behind his smile, she noticed a thing. The odd similarities between him and Sebastian Domanco which made her frown. "Who are you? And what are you talking about?" She asked in a defensive tone while frowning at him deeply. He let out a chuckle after hearing her. "I see that you always stay in your own world, huh? We met just a few hours ago and you already forgot me. Not that I can blame you, we didn't have an official introduction yet." He said with a smile making her frown for several reasons. First of all, he was being too friendly with someone he doesn't know and secondly, when did they meet? Then suddenly a thought came to her mind and she started to connect
"Chloe! What are you doing here?!" James stood up from his seat at the sight of his daughter. He walked toward her and glared sternly. Chloe's eyes were fixed on Sebastian Domanco who was sitting just across her with a cold look on his face. She could see how much her presence affected him, in a negative way. She smirked at him secretly before looking at her father with a sweet smile. "Dad? Didn't you hear me at first? It's a coincidence. Me and Bella came here for lunch and saw you all and thought to say a hello. Did I do something wrong, Mr William?" She asked while looking directly at Mr William Domanco, former CEO of Domanco enterprise. Everyone from the previous day was present. William Domanco raised his eyebrows at the young girl who managed to offend both his sons in their first meeting which nobody dared to do till that day. She has caught his interest pretty well by her rebellious attitu
THE NEXT MORNING "Whoa! Whoa! What's happening here? Sebastian? Why are you shouting at Daniel?" Mason asked with raised eyebrows after getting into the room. Sebastian and Mason are not only best friends but also partners in business. He occasionally visits Sebastian in his office. Today was one of those days when he came to his office to visit him but he was confused when he heard Sebastian shouting at someone. He got more confused when he entered the room and found Daniel at the receiving end of Sebastian's rage. "Oh, thank god you came Mason! Handle your best friend. He is impossible for me to handle anymore!" Daniel exclaimed as soon as he saw Mason and went ahead to stand beside Mason with a frustrated look on his face. "What's happening here? Can anyone explain to me?" Mason asked while giving a look to Daniel because expecting an answer from Sebastian is useless.&nbs
"Le... leave me…" Chloe said in a breathless tone, while trying hard to not look into his eyes. Sebastian was looking intently at her. He was taking note of her every blink, every twitch of facial expressions and every breath. She was so confident just a few minutes ago and now she was like a deer caught under headlights. He could say that his closeness made her uncomfortable yet she was here to prove her point. Such a stubborn brat she is! "I am not a bit interested in holding you either. Just answer my questions without any extra drama and you are free to get the hell out of my eyes." He said with bitterness in his tone and eyes, making her look at him with irritation. "What?" She almost snapped at him, making him amused by her change of attitudes. But he didn't show it on his face and put on a darker face while tightening his hold around her wrists.
"Don't worry, Bella. Everything is going to turn out good." Chloe said while leaning against the chair with her legs on the table she was sitting in front. She was in a small room which is her office for the next one month as Sebastian Domanco's secretary. The room was one floor below Sebastian's floor. Sebastian's floor doesn't have any other room other than his room. His office room was spacious while she had a tiny room compared to his. It has only a small table with a laptop and a lot of files which she is yet to explore. There were two chairs in front of her for visitors and a small couch placed at the corner of the room. That's it, nothing else. Pretty basic room for the secretary of Sebastian Domanco. "Nothing is good when you are involved in something, Chloe and that's what petrifies me." Bella said with a sigh which made Chloe chuckle at her. "Now you are bein
"How the hell is this possible?! That too in-..." Chloe stopped to look at her hand watch before exclaiming back in her previous loud tone. "Two hours!"She looked at the new attached room with Sebastian's office in astonishment. It was her new room which Sebastian managed to build or renovate whatever within two freaking hours. It was mostly glass and board, so it's maybe a little bit understandable. But it still amazes her beyond limit.This room is nothing like the previous one. It has some decorative objects like vases and paintings. It has a bookshelf too but there are mostly business related books and magazines where the company was featured. There were two other shelves which were filled with different files. A small coffee machine with ingredients and a small freezer too. The room has AC unlike the previous one and the furniture is expensive and more polished than the previous one."Everything i

“Calm down, Chloe!” Sebastian said with a hidden smile as he hugged her tightly.“I can't calm down. I am so angry right now. Oh god! How dare she?” Chloe fumed while hugging him back tightly.“Don’t listen to her Chloe. Don’t you trust me? I am yours and will always be yours. No one can change that.” He said in an assuring tone.“I will not let that change as well. You are stuck with me forever and whoever will try that, I will kill them with my hands.” She said with gritted teeth.“Whenever you talk like this, I feel like…” He trailed off as he cupped her face and looked deep into her eyes. Her cheeks turned red when she saw the intensity in his eyes.“You feel like…?” She asked as her eyes dropped to his lips."Kissing you senselessly."
"You think you are so smart, huh?" Chloe turned around to look at the source of the irritating voice which definitely belonged to Samantha. Chloe let out a sigh and turned around to look at her with an irritated look on her face. "Think?! I know I am smart and now the world knows that as well." Chloe said with a smirk. Samantha didn't seem to like that part. She looked at Chloe with a devilish look on her face. "You think you did a great job by flaunting your husband and father back there, right?" She asked while closing the distance between them a little. "I didn't flaunt, Samantha. I never wanted to mention them in the first place, that's why I made them say that. Our introductions are clearly written in the participation form. They know everything about us but still want us to tell them because they want to see how we are. So, instead of telling the same thing they
One by one beautiful women started to walk in gracefully in their beautiful dresses and do a small cat walk before introducing themselves. There were thirty contestants. A lot of girls got rejected in the selection round after the registration. Now only thirty of them will compete with each other which will come down to twenty after the first round only. So, the competition is hard."Now we would like to call Miss Samantha in to introduce herself and impress our wonderful judges!" Arthur said and everyone clapped.Samantha was standing backstage, after her were two more girls and then Chloe. As Chloe was the last one to register for the contest, her serial was at the end.Samantha turned around and looked at Chloe with a smirk, which Chloe didn't pay heed to."Watch me. I am going to pass this round easily and I am sure you are going home from there only." She said in
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! Today I am Arthur. I welcome you all to the biggest beauty contest of the country, MISS NEW YORK BEAUTY CONTEST!" The host said and everyone clapped after him. "This year, the contest is going to be a little different than the past years. Because this year not only Miss but Mrs can join the contest as well! Because you are coming out of the stereotype of labelling women!" The host announced and everyone clapped again. "We have very beautiful ladies as participants today but before getting introduced to them, I would like to introduce our three honourable guests. They will follow the beautiful ladies throughout the journey and choose a perfect and deserved winner eventually." Everyone clapped once again. "Now, let's welcome Miss Latina, one of the best fashion designers around the world." He said and a beautiful woman, wearing a beautiful dress walked from the r
"Oh my god! You are looking beautiful!" Bella and Katherine squealed at the same time as soon as Chloe came out of the changing room wearing the dress."Thank you so much, girls! Do I look okay?" Chloe asked as she did a small twirl for them to see and they did a squeal again."You look more than perfect! Ahh! So beautiful!" Bella squealed with a hand on her heart."Wait, give me a pose! Let me click a picture and send it to Sebastian. He will be awestruck." Katherine said with a wink, making Chloe laugh."No, don't send him a full photo, let's tease him." Chloe said in a mischievous tone, making them chuckle at the plan."Okay, let's do this! Did he call you yet?" BKatherine asked as she and Katherine started to take half photos of her where her full face wasn't visible or only her hair or part of body was visible.

Look who's here!" Samantha said in an insulting tone, making Chloe roll her eyes at her. She was going to reply to her when Samantha spoke up again. "The homewrecker." She snapped at her, making Chloe frown. The other girls in the room laughed while hearing her."Whose home did I wreck by the way?" Chloe asked with a raised eyebrow as she crossed her arms and stood up with her chin held high. She was radiating confidence. Samantha's face became red in anger as she glared at Chloe."Mine! You destroyed my home! My relationship! My engagement with the love
NEXT MORNING Chloe winced as rays of morning sun tickled her eyes. When she opened them, the first thing she saw was Sebastian sleeping in front of her. At first a soft smile came up on his face as looked at his sleeping face. How breathtakingly handsome he was looking and the feeling that he was only his, gave her immense happiness. Her gaze darts on his face, and a soft smile tugs at her lips. She stared at his peaceful expression while he was sleeping. He was so beautiful and breathtakingly handsome that she felt the weight on her chest to even breathe. But the moment the sleep bid bye to her and she came into her full senses, her heart dropped. She held her breath still and looked at him with widened eyes. She found herself wrapped around his strong, possessive and determined arms, the blanket was covering the lower parts of their body. "What the actual
