Rodrigo was getting ready for a meeting with Fabio. It was a family meeting where they weighed which group was performing better. This family meeting was crucial because it determined who would get more power.“Are you going to tell her?” Fabio broke the awkward silence. “Tell her what?”“The real reason you're marrying her.” Rodrigo sighed while buttoning his shirt. “Is it necessary? She'll eventually find out”“Do you think she'll stay after she finds out?” “I can't tell her right now, I might lose her.”I heard a knock on the door. “Come in.” Greta, the housekeeper, entered. “Sir, I've been knocking nonstop on Mrs Hillary's door, but she's not opening.”Rodrigo walked out of the room and made his way towards Hillary's room. He knocked twice. He stood there for some time and knocked the third time.He tried opening the door, but it was locked. He knocked again, and there was still no response. He got impatient and scared. He immediately called the housekeeper to bring him the spare
“Fuck, I forgot about the meeting.” I immediately grabbed my phone and called Fabio. “There's a problem boss. Did you shoot Angelo?”“Yes, and?” “Well, I didn't know you shot him, and you didn't tell me. We've lost the KL warehouse to him as compensation.”“What? He fucking touched my wife.” “Well, you weren't here to clarify that, so they thought you guys got into an argument and you shot him. He also said you attacked him.”“Is the meeting over?” “Almost.” “Tell them I'm on my way.” There's no fucking way I'm losing a warehouse to that scumbag. I hurriedly dressed up, got into my car and drove off.I arrived at my parent's. I walked in, ignoring all the judgemental stares. I finally got inside the meeting room, and immediately I entered, everyone turned to look at me.The place became dead silent as I walked to my seat. I looked at my father and bowed my head to him. “You can't give Angelo my warehouse he doesn't deserve it., I said with a clenched jaw.“Rodrigo, have some respect
Hillary pov I decided to take a stroll around the house since I was so bored. I stumbled upon Rodrigo's office, and it was unlocked. Maybe he was in a hurry and left it open. I wanted to pass by, but something was just pushing me to enter and explore, and of course, I listened to that something. The interior was boring, it was grey and dull. There was a huge table and there were some files on it.I went closer to the table and ran my hand on the files. I sat in his chair and noticed there were drawers. I tried opening it, but they were locked. I scanned the files and fished out one. I started to read the contents, and my eyes widened. “What the fuck?” My hands started to tremble as I continued to read. Just then, Rodrigo's door flung open and I was met with his eyes.He looked at my trembling figure and later looked at what was causing that. He immediately walked towards me and snatched the file.“What are you doing in my office?” He roared. “W…what is…”“I said what the hell are
Rodrigo Pov I walked to her and looked at her intently. I was just a few inches away from her. I brought my hand and caressed her face.I started to trail my fingers from her face to her neck. She shivered when I did that. “What are you doing? Don't touch me.” She said in almost a whisper. I knew she was still mad at me for yelling at her yesterday. I suddenly pulled her closer to me, and she gasped at the sudden contact. Her face turned red, and she looked everywhere but into my eyes. I held her thighs and carried her in a way that she'd straddle me. I walked to the bed and sat down with her on top of me.I brushed the strands of wet hair on her face and brought my lips to her neck. She made a soft moan and gripped my shirt.I kissed and nibbled on her neck, and she struggled to keep in her moans. She gently pushed me away, but I went in again. I pulled her robe up to get access to her thighs and started to caress it gently. She shuddered in pleasure.I flipped her, and she was
Hillary Pov My attention was drawn to the door when I heard a knock. I was met with Rodrigo's annoying handsome face.If only he knew how pissed I was at him, he wouldn't be here.“We're having dinner together, come to the dining area?” I scoffed and he raised a brow."Why should have dinner with you?” I was about to close the door when he stopped it with his hand.“It's not a request. Be there in 30 minutes.” He said and walked away.“He's so rude and arrogant.” I said with an annoyed tone and closed my door. Rodrigo was only sweet to me when I was hurt or in pain. What an asshole. I looked through my closet and picked a maxi dress. I put my hair in a messy bun and left. I walked to the kitchen and saw Greta cooking. “Can I help?” I asked Greta.“Oh no no Mrs Hillary.” She said with a worried and scared tone. “Don't worry Greta, I want to help.” “Por favour, I'll finish then serve you soon.” Greta spoke in a thick Spanish accent. But I wasn't giving up. “No Greta, if you don't
Rodrigo Pov She had no idea how bad I'd been waiting for her to disobey me to touch her again. I stood inches away from her. She looked down, and I held her chin up to look at me. She looked at me innocently. Fuck she's beautiful. Hillary should be a goddess because her beauty is impeccable. She's ethereal. “Rodrigo.” Her soft voice jerked me back to reality. “I think Fabio is at the door.” I was so carried away with admiring her that I didn't even hear Fabio call me. Fuck, what does he want now? “I'll be back, Freckles.” I let go of her waist and walked to unlock the door. “What?” I asked in a pissed tone. He raised a brow and shook his head. “It's about the shipment.” I sighed while pinching the skin in between my brows. We finally arrived in my office and I took a seat. “Remember Gordon?” “Yeah, the snake Gang leader. What about him?” “He has been misbehaving since he took over the vipers, he doesn't want to let us cross his border. Greg tried reasoning with
Rodrigo Pov. I sat in the car quietly as we drove to one of my apartments in Paris. I was tired and needed to rest. I had some business here, so I didn't have time to see Gordon.We got to the underground garage shortly, and I stepped out to take the elevator. “Rod!” I heard that familiar screeching voice. I turned and met her green eyes. How did she even know about my arrival? Oh fuck I'm too tired for this.She clicked her pencil heels and got closer to me in no time. “Mon amour, I missed you.” I scoffed and dug my hands into my pocket. “What do you want, Jules?” I said while staring at her blankly. “What do you mean my love? You left without saying goodbye and now you're being all nonchalant? Didn't you miss me? Didn't you miss us?” She came closer to me and engulfed me in a hug. “I missed your scent so much.” She said and started to sniff me. Such a weirdo. I peeled her off me and she was looking confused. “Jules, we both had fun, you were never my girlfriend. What we had ca
Hillary PovI sat in the kitchen as I waited for Greta to finish cooking. “Mrs Hillary, you can go to your room, I'll bring it to you.”“I'm fine, Greta; I'm just bored in my room.” She nodded timidly and resumed what she was doing. Why isn't Rodrigo contacting me even after saying he'd contact me? That lying son of a bitch. “Ppft, why do I even care.” “Did you say somethin', Mrs Hillary?” “Oh, no Greta.” Men are such liars, especially Rodrigo. How do you suddenly leave your wife and forget to contact her? “Greta, bring the food to my room.” I walked out of the kitchen and headed to my room. Why am I feeling his absence so much? “Ugh,” I grunted while pulling my hair lightly. I walked to my closet and scanned my clothes. There are some clothes I've never worn before. I grabbed a short maxi dress and slipped it on. Where am I going? I have no idea, I just want to leave this place, I feel suffocated. I put my hair in a messy bun, letting two strands of hair fall on my sides. I w
