LEONA

" Nevermind. How about we get practical?"

"Sure."

He moved leisurely to his shelf and grabbed some documents, he walked back to me and placed them in front of me.

"These are the records of this company for the past five years. I'd like you to go through and pinpoint the shortcomings. "

" But this is an auditor's work? "

" What? Is it not part of being an accountant? "

" Yeah but this is really gonna take forever. "

" Is that a complaint coming out of your mouth? "

" No but... "

" Do you want this job or not? " he began to roll his sleeves up.

" Yes... "

" Then keep quiet and do as you were told. "

" Alright, can I have all the receipts? "

" Sure, why not? " He brought them to me.

As an audit of a bank, which I am currently, I have to provide users such as lenders and investors with an enhanced degree of confidence in the financial statements.

To form that opinion, I have to gather appropriate and sufficient evidence and observe, test, compare, and confirm until gaining reasonab

    THIS CHAPTER IS DEDICATED TO ALL OF YOU! I LOVE YOU~LEONA~This is the second time he's talking about a baby in just a day. What's with him?I scrutinized him, trying to take in every of his features."Do you mind explaining what you said just now?" I asked." What?" He asked with an innocent look." Love you, mum, talk to you later." He said and pinged on a phone I just saw him holding.I looked at him and realized that he had an airpod in his ear.Oh, so he was making a call?Why didn't I notice earlier? And why does his call coincide with my life?Why am I even trying to believe him?"Sorry about that. Was on a call." He apologized."I noticed, may I go now? I promise to finish the work tomorrow if possible."" You may." He agreed and walked away.For all I know, he could be lying.I walked on the long passageway towards the exit.My eyes adjusted to the darkness outside as I walked to the roadside for a car.After ten minutes, I still couldn't get any Taxi that would convey me ho

    ~LEONA~It was cloudy and the wind blew fiercely accompanied by lightning and thunder.It was a sigh of a great storm. I looked at the cloud sadly.I just closed from work later than usual and it happens that there was no available taxi. The coming storm made it worse.I clutched my bag tightly as I walked on the street. There was no one apart from moving cars.I tried stopping random cars but none was ready to render help.I decided to start walking home and maybe I might get a taxi.As I walked, I began to hear lighter footsteps behind me.I turned but couldn't see anyone. I didn't make much out of it so I continued walking.After some steps, I began to hear the strange steps. My pulse quickened when I turned to see my worst nightmare.I could recognize him from anywhere.How did he find me so quickly?I doubled my steps and made to run but it suddenly began to rain making the street slippery and my heels weren't helping one bit.He was almost close and I was trying to run faster bu

    ★ LEONA"Don't be shocked, you didn't plan on being anonymous forever did you?"" Well, then I guess I am fired. I'm sorry for the inconveniences I must've caused during my short term stay" I took my bag.He knew all along that I was the one who has been sleeping secretly in his house and am sure that was why he was tough on me yesterday.He brought his hand to his lips and chuckled. "Short term. Really? Did you want it long?"Did I really say that? I am sure it wasn't on purpose."Well, I am sorry." I apologized due to lack of words.I didn't want him to tell me to leave before I do so I turned to the door and began to walk."I never told you to leave miss Grande. I'm still talking to you. "I stopped and held my bag tightly." What else is left to be said?" I didn't want to hear the word 'you're fired.'" There's in fact a lot I want to talk about and they're far from ' you're fired.' "He read my mind.I turned to him and he gestured for me to sit.I walked back to his large mahoga

    LEONA"Are you alright?" Raymond asked."Yes, I am. Why did you stop the car?""That's it, you're not fine. We are home but you didn't notice. What's wrong Leona? "" Come on Raymond, I'm fine. I am justa little occupied. " I lied" Occupied with? "" The thought of my son's future and lot more. Let's go. " I opened the door and got out with Leonard.I waited for Raymond at the door to open the door since I was holding Leo along with my bag.I got in once he opened it."Has Leo taken anything yet?""He took cereal two hours ago but I think he'll need milk now. I'll go prepare it. Here, give him to me so you can freshen up. "I nodded and handed him to Raymond.When I came back from the bathroom, Leonard was sleeping peacefully on my bed.Raymond must've brought him here after he'd slept.But..Did I take that long in the bathroom?I wore my oversized pajamas and got out."Did he finish all the bottles?" I asked and sat beside Raymond on the couch."Yeah, your son is one hell of a foodi

    LEONA"How's your baby, Miss Grande?"No fucking way!My head snapped up and met with his eyes.His gaze on me was unfaltering, taking note of every twist I make."Excuse me?.""I said how's your baby." He repeated and looked away.My mind flashed to Yolando. Could he possibly be working with him?"Who are you? Are you a stalker? Have you been sent by him to get me?"I got terrified when I remembered that Lando's safe password was DAVE.Could they be related? Am I already in trouble?"What are you talking about?" It was his turn to be surprised." Fucking answer me! Who the fuck are you!" I raised my voice, causing heads to turn." Are you crazy?" He chided and looked around."People are watching so keep your voice low." He said under his breath." I don't care!" I yelled again."Of course you wouldn't care but I do. I have a reputation to uphold."I looked around and realized that everyone was looking at what was going on.This will even be worse. I saw CCTV cameras around and panick

    LEONA***I didn't waste any more time when I got to my office. Once my head was buried in my work, I didn't look up till it was time to go home.I left the office hastily because I didn't want to encounter Dave.Fortunately, my sweet brother was already waiting for me outside with the car as usual.I got into the car and we had our normal chat.The next day was Tuesday and I wore a sleeveless dress that was just above my knees with a long blazer.I didn't have to do anything with my wig. I'm actually bored wearing it every day though.It's almost a month since I escaped from Yolando and in my second week of working.After dressing up, I went out to meet the two important people in my life and we drove off.I didn't see Dave when I got to the company until 10 am when my door creaked open and his tall frame stepped in."Have you been avoiding me?" I raised my head." Nevermind, get me a coffee and some for yourself if you want to. " He said and left.I got up, straightened my dress, a

    LEONAI brought the phone down from my ears and stared at the screen.I sent it back to my ears," who's this?"Once I asked, the line disconnected.The voice belongs to Dave but why would he call me?Probably to tell that I am fired because I've absented myself for two days at work and for arguing with him.It couldn't be him, right?**. ~DAVE~After what happened between Leona and I when I overheard her declaring her love for her boyfriend.I didn't know why I reacted that way. Maybe it was because I was about to have lunch with her but came at the wrong time.Maybe I should stop being around her. She's someone's wife and mother after all.I still can't understand why she flared when I asked her about the baby. She was angry but there was fear also.She looks like a strong woman so what could be her fear?Wednesday was when we argued and on Thursday, I wasn't at work but came on Friday.I didn't want to see her and tried so hard not to open her door and get in.I coul

    LEONAWhat the heck!The next thing I knew, he had slammed his lips to mine and nearly knocked all air from my lungs.I hardly had a moment to react before he pressed his tongue to the seam of my lips expecting me to grant him access to delve in.I tightened my lip, refusing to barge.What is wrong with him?He pulled me closer to his chiseled chest, I splayed my hands against it, intending to push him but I inhaled a sharp breath when his palms settled on my waist and gave it a squeeze. My lips parted and he delved in, awakening all the nerves.He tasted amazing.It was a very sloppy kiss with the strong scent of mint lingering in his mouth as he kisses me. He was really kissing me and I'm finding it hard to believe it.I didn't know when I kissed him back. My arms reached up from where I left them on his chest and tangled around his thick, strong neck.My entire body feels like its been set on fire, I've never felt like this before or kissed anyone like this before. Well, it's not li

  • Her Ultimate Destroyer   Final Epilogue

    TEN MONTHS LATER... LEONAWe just arrived home and I am awed to see the entire family in the decorated living room upstanding in anticipation of our arrival.I was carrying my new baby boy in my arms while Dave carried the girl. Yes, I delivered a boy and a girl twin and it's been a month but we're now returning from the by-force vacation Dave took me a month before my delivery. Everyone couldn't wait to see us and here we are now. Petals of different colors showered on us as we walked into the living room."Aww. They're so adorable and the girl is so cute." Kim squealed and took my baby boy from me.I sat down and everyone took turns to congratulate us, me especially. My mind went back to the day I told Dave that I was pregnant in his office. It's been ten months but I can't forget that astonishing look and his priceless smile when I told him the news. I keep replaying it and anytime I do, I find myself smiling. I've never seen him that happy before...it was so ama

    FOUR YEARS LATER.....Yeah.It's been four fucking years and I can't say I'm still the Leona of four years back. I'm twenty-six and I've achieved a lot.I got my masters and I even went further to have a bachelor's in architecture. I work in one of the biggest global companies here in America and aside from that, I work with Dave as his assistant in his architectural firm. Together, we built the firm to a top-notch. Anosova architectural firm is now one of the best in the world. His hard work also took his family business to an even higher level. All this occurred in four years.In four years, I became Mrs. Anosova. When we left that coffee shop, we registered, then advanced our wedding night. It was crazy but felt so right. After a year, we got married properly in a church where all the family including loved ones were present.Should I say I expected to see Lando come but he didn't? Well, I did. He told me he's my shadow so I expected him to be there. Not for that alone but because

    🔥FINALE 🔥Leona Grande-AnosovaIt's been a month and right now Dave and I are sitting facing each other in a coffee shop somewhere in Seattle. From Greece, we relocated to one of Dave's mansions here in Seattle. The city is nice and full of coffee shops with really great coffees. Raymond has recovered and I won't say entirely but it's better than before and he's currently at home with Leonard. Leonard will be two years old next month and I can't wait to celebrate his second birthday.On my dad's insistence to work, Dave employed him in his company and my siblings have also returned to their preferred schools. I will remember to pay Dave back every dime he's spending on my family and me. It's a lot and I can't thank him enough.He also allowed me to get on birth control pills after I explained that I will be furthering my education.He made a joke out of it with a cocky remark that he doesn't need any more competition and that, child or no child, he wants me all to himself. He doe

    LEONA"Really?" He came even closer, leaned into me and and bit my neck.I looked up at him and caught him staring at my chest with so much hunger and lust but above all, love.With Leonard in my arms, it made my towel pull down, revealing a greater part of my breast leaving only the nipples hidden."Make him sleep, Leo." His voice was begging. His lips moved to kiss the top of my breast but Leonard who hasn't slept yet pushed his head back and placed his little hands on my chest, shielding it from Dave.Dave glared at him and swat Leonard's hands away. "She's my woman, young man.""Seriously Dave. How would he sleep?" I laughed. History isn't repeating, is it?First, it was me fighting Leonard and now Dave fighting him."Then tell him that. He seems to be competing with me."Leonard wasn't having it either. He placed his hand back on my chest and added his head then rolled his baby blue eyes at Dave angrily."What! Did you see that?" Dave grumbled before placing his hand

    LEONAI looked at him in absolute shock, my eyes threatening to fall out. This is incredibly unbelievable. I blink multiple times to clear my vision in case I was hallucinating but no. He stood there with his bandages still on him. He didn't look strong but he's here.My hands reached to grip Dave tight and my eyes water. With a shaky voice, I asked. "How?" He limped towards me but I stumbled back. "Are you sure you're not a ghost? I saw your dead body, Raymond. I saw how pale you got. I saw everything. How can you not die?""Don't go away from me, sis." He winced and stopped limping towards me."I'm sorry for scaring all of you. I should've said this to you upfront. You know, after my car accident, I did self-medication before coming to Dave's mansion. I knew that man would try something so I couldn't stay at the hospital though I was going through a lot of pain. I took an overdose of a strong antidepressant and it helped after he shot me. I really didn't feel st

    "I'm taking them away, Dad," Dave answered and came to his father with a bunch of papers in his hand."What do you mean? This is their home too.""It was no longer home when you brought a devil to live in it." He retorted."Stop this, Dave. He's your brother." Charles whispered but it wasn't low enough."I refuse to accept him and you'd not change my mind.!"Who are they talking about? I didn't know Dave had a brother."Here, dad. This is all your business and ownership documents. I've resigned and signed everything out of my name. Where's mum? She should come and give them to her darling son." He looked around.I didn't understand whatever that was going on. Why's Dave giving everything back? Most importantly, was I supposed to witness this?I wished my feet would drag me out but I was too curious."I have my own company to focus on anyway.”"Is this how you behave?" Kim appeared. "You get angry at your parents when we scold you a little? We raised you better.""I'm glad you're here,

    LEONAI paid the driver and stepped down. I stared at Raymond's apartment and literally wept.A lot of memories are being embedded here. I still can't believe that I lost my brother. My only brother. What kind of fate am I carrying? Why's it that I always invite trouble for people wherever I go?Dave went through a lot because of me. My family is not an exception but they survived it and my brother couldn't. Life is so unfair and especially to me.Oh, Lord. Please save my soul and remove all this pain and sorrows. It's more than I can take.I'm living but my life is not worth living without my backbone.I looked for the key where he always keeps it, put it in the keyhole then turned it gently before pushing it.The room was just as I expected. Dust and cobwebs everywhere which is clearly indicating that it's been a long time since a human lived here.I opened his room and walked slowly into it.I saw a photograph of us together on his bedside table and picked it up. I stared at it an

    LEONA“Dave.” I called once the door clicked open and he stepped in. I shuffled to my feet and adjusted my eyes to the darkness."Why are you avoiding me?”He came late and I had stayed up all night just to talk to him.He found the switch and turned the lights on."And who said I am?” I watched him hang his suit jacket."Then what? Why are you doing this? This is not you." I complained."What am I doing? We talk, don't we?" His brows furrowed as he took off his cufflinks leisurely."You know what I'm talking about. Stop being nonchalant."“Fine. I'm only giving you space because anytime I try to get close you tell me you want to leave. To leave me. I didn't want to hear that…"Dave I ...""No Leona. Please don't say anything." He cuts me off and walked out.So this is it. He thinks I will leave? Well, that was my initial plan but I aborted it long ago.I tried starting a conversation with him to try and clear his misconception but he wouldn't give me a chance.I regret s

    LEONA"Have you seen what you've caused our family? I've always known you're a bad egg. How could you? You should've looked for a decent job like every graduate or come back home. It was out of rage I acted harshly and threw you out but you could've come back. Your father got hospitalized because of you and yet you never showed up. What kind of a daughter are you Leona? And now because of your reckless ways, you lost your brother. You caused his death, Leona. I hope you know that!" Tasha scolded me once I joined them in the guest room."Are you done, woman?" Dad asked and she rolled her eyes."Must I always remind you that if you have nothing sensible to say you should keep quiet?""You won't start again Cornelius!" She warned.I knew just then that if I don't come in, they will start fighting."Dad, Tasha is right. I fucked up..""See? She started cursing. I fear you, Leona. Especially after what we went through because of you. I know you're a murderer just like that fearful man and
