ANNIE'S POV
The picture on the table turned out to be my picture holding a gun, I think this picture was taken during my training with Aunt Maria. I think I was in elementary school when this picture was taken. When was it taken without me knowing?It's been 3 days since I came to California, and I am beginning to like my new life I am on my way to meet up with my friend Lena. We have planned on going shopping since tomorrow is my interview I have to get a few things before tomorrow. Donning skinny jeans with a floral short-sleeved top, I applied some moisturizer. I don't need to wear make-up because I am blessed with luscious soft pink lips and long thick eyelashes and I also have beautiful creamy skin. Looking at myself in the mirror, I see a beautiful confident young woman, Since I came to (California) San Francisco, I have developed some sort of confidence I don't even know where it comes from. I guess it is because of the promise I made to myself not to ever be weak.Lena and I decided to visit a shopping mall before we got some coffeeWhen we entered the shop Lena hurriedly drugged me to an exclusive shop where they sell dresses. There were so many dresses in this shop but I saw a very beautiful white dress on a mannequin, I quickly asked the shop attendant to remove the address so that I try it on, I went to the fitting room to try the dress on, I came back with a smile because the dress looks good on me the attendants were surprised, "maam this dress looks good on you it seems it's is made perfectly for you" I smiled at her words. Fortunately, I have a black card so I can buy whatever I want. The attendant and Lena were praising me when an unwanted guest entered the shop, "I want that dress" Everyone started to look around, Are you deaf I said I want the dress on her, I'm not surprised that word is coming from Isabella she is only known for trouble, always making looking for my trouble. I ignored her and walked majestically into the fitting room to change my address. I handed the dress to the shop attendants to wrap it for me, I walked straight to the cashier, "Hey Annie stop right there Are you, not the one I'm talking to? I said I want that dress. I ignored her.And who the hell are you to tell her what you want, we already picked that dress before you came in. Lena came to my defence, I could see that Lena was beginning to get angry. Annie stop pretending you don't even have money to afford that dress, You know you can't afford the dress a poor person like you cannot afford that dress, Stop showing off your poverty self and give the dress to me. Everyone was dumbfounded, everyone was now looking at me as if I'd offended her. "Maam please you can pick any other dress but this one is already taken," said the attendant." Give me that dress I want that white dress, Annie You can choose any other dress you want" Her demanding tone begged to irritate me. She walked to that cashier who looked confused, Poor cashier, she was nervously looking at both of us, Isabella started behaving like a little girl tagging on the shirts of the handsome man she was with, "Baby do something about this I want that dress, do you know who my boyfriend is? He will deal with you" I looked at both of them and I started laughing. This attracted the attention of a group of people, everyone was staring at us. I was just tired of Isabella and her bullying. The man with Isabella opened his mouth" Miss give the address to my girlfriend, she said she wanted that dress", he said the words with authority attracting the attention of everyone. The disbelief written on Lena's face was priceless. Leonardo, I like that dress she whined, Miss can you pick any other dress and give that one to my girlfriend, I looked at him with disbelief. Are you ok? I can't believe you are blind. No wonder they say birds of the same feathers flock together. I pointed at a more elegant and expensive dress on a mannequin, lady please wrap that dress up for me. "Annie I told you to stop pretending, You don't have money so stop pretending" I walked to the cashier with my black card in hand, She was surprised she hurriedly checked the authenticity of the card and then gave the card back to me after processing my bill. I threw the white dress at Isabella.Isabella you can have that dress, you know what, I can never be interested in anything you are interested in, I turn my attention to the man beside her, And you Mister, you have bad taste in women, I mean cheap women. I saw the man clench his fists. I immediately dragged Lena from the shop, I was very proud of myself for dealing with Isabella in such a manner. I don't ever wish to cross paths with her again.Leonardo's povwalking into a shop with Isabella my current whore, my breath was taken away by what I saw.Annie my angel, looks so beautiful in that white dress, she ignored the slut beside me and walk elegantly into the fitting room. I was not paying attention to the banter going on between the two women, I was lost in my thoughts. I wanted to run away from there. I have never been in a situation like this before, I never thought our first meeting would be like this. I know she is in town. I don't even know what Isabella asked of me, I uttered the words without thinking. Miss gave the address to my girlfriend she said she wanted that dress". Did I say those words, What came over me? the moment Annie and her friend left, I left the shop leaving that slut behind. Indeed I have bad taste in women. I don't care about their personality, all I need from them is good sex, I don't care about what they do because I know it is temporal. I stepped into my office in one of my clubs, my mind was in chaos. Annie said she would never want anything Isabella is interested in. That word keeps repeating in my head. My Angel is indeed a true definition of a queen, looking at Annie, that Isabella girl looked like a mannequin beside me. I heard a knock on my office door, I asked the person to come in, I checked my CCTV camera first and I knew who it was. She entered with her fake boobs "Baby, am sorry or what happened at the mall, that girl is such a mean person, she use to bully me in school that's why I took advantage of the situation to retaliate, am sorry". I don't care about whatever she says.strip, I watched her strip, removing her dress slowly trying to seduce me, I don't care how she does it. go down and blow me, I removed my big rod then I entered her mouth roughly, she is good at sucking dick, that's why I like to fuck her. I removed my dick from her mouth, I gave a some time to breathe. Be on your fours, good girl. I removed the condom from one of the drawers. I fixed the condom on then I entered her from the back.I begin to pound her roughly, I don't want to look at my sluts when am having sex with them. Annie's angry face just flashed in my mind. I stopped instantly, I no longer have any interest in sleeping with her. Dress up and get out! get out!There was shock written on her face.listen Isabelle or whatever your name is, I am not your boyfriend and I can't date a slut like you, if you try what you did today at the mall, you will not leave to tell the story. I dragged her out of my office and closed the door behind her.Annie's povIt is yet another morning and I had to prepare for my interview.I quickly ran to the bathroom to freshen up and I wore a pencil black skirt a white off-shoulder top and black heels. I tied my hair in a ponytail. When I was done, I carried my handbag and rushed downstairs to the dining room.My breakfast was served immediately after I entered the dining room by Hannah. I was going through the internet to check the daily news when I spotted news about Leonardo Dicosta CEO of the Dicosta conglomerate. and it says the big boss with his girlfriend are in an argument with an unknown woman. Immediately I saw the picture of the man, I recognised him immediately. He is the man I met when I went shopping with Lena, Isabella's boyfriend. I clicked on the video attached to the news, and I was shocked. It is the video of what transpired between me and Isabella at the mall. I was described as an arrogant woman. I hate to be the centre of attention. I never knew he was the CEO, I don't
Annies pov I could feel that someone was staring at me while eating. I called the waitress for the bills and she told me that it had been paid by Leonardo. I don't like the fact that he has paid for the food. I don't want to be indebted to the arrogant boss, I looked at him and said thank you to him, even though, I didn't it loud, he was able to read my lips. He nodded his head in acknowledgement. I don't want to be indebted to him in any way. As we were about to get out of the restaurant, Isabella and another lady walked into the restaurant, Isabella standing at the entrance scanned the restaurant's area as if looking for someone, the instance she spotted Leonardo di Costa She Walker carelessly to where he was sitting, she hugged and kissed him on the lip while he was still sitting down. Mike and I walked out of the restaurant looking back, I was not scared of Isabella but I didn't want any more of her drama. It was almost 6 p.m. when we got home. Upon reaching my room, I brought
Annie's povI woke up quite early this morning, I didn't sleep much last night. I was busy thinking about the bad big CEO and bumping into him yesterday changed something in me. I felt embracing him is where I belong forever, and I would like to embrace him again. I think I am getting crazy.At 6:30 am, am already having my breakfast. I like every food prepared by Elizabeth, Elizabeth and the other workers have been my family these few days I've spent here."Annie I'm calling to confirm if you are going to work today", I am Vicento, I am done with my breakfast and I am heading out already."Alright, have a good day at work and lest I forget, your crazy brother will join you today, he can't wait to be with you. But please be careful and don't let him influence you into doing crazy things"I can't wait to see him, I will talk to you later.Stepping out of the house, I saw Mike already standing beside the car," Good morning Annie, Are you ready""More than ever Mike"I made my way to the
The marketing department needs to go back and prepare a new business plan if possible more than one so that you can choose from it and also a new budget. My boss was just listening quietly with no emotions, "Miss Johnson, you are right, I agree with youI am glad we are on the same page, sir. Mr Dicosta please I want to talk to you about something that is not work-related.your girlfriend Isabella attacked me a while ago in my office, she warned me to stay away from you and also rained all sorts of insults on me. My boss responded "she did what" with a loud and annoyed voice, I repeated myself. Sir please I will not appreciate that form of humiliation the next time.With all due respect, I do not care about your relationship with her, all I care able is my job. If she attacks me again, I can't promise that I will be this gentle. He nodded his head. Annie, Isabella is not my girlfriend, why is he telling me this, does he think I am blind? And why my first name? I said in my mind
LEONARDO POV I was going through some documents when Annie walked in, I saw how she was staring at me, I am happy my presence is affects her too. I internationally brushed her arm when she was placing the coffee on my desk, how can I concentrate on my work knowing she is here, I feel like tearing the sexy dress she has on, bend her over the table and pound her from behind but I can't do that to her, she's too innocent for that, I gave her the assignment to go through some reports, I know how intelligent she is but I want to know if she will see where the problem is, I have been on alert since yesterday because our enemies are waging war against us, they have attacked our shipment. And I am not going to sit and watch, who else knows what they are planning? It's been a while since they've seen me in action. We've gotten hold of the man behind the attack on Aunty Maria and Annie but the two crazy Adriano boys want him alive, they also want to torture him, he has been in our warehouse fo
LUCA ANDRIANO When I got to California, I wanted to go to the office first but that can wait, I called mike and he confirmed my sister is at work so I decided to surprise her, I waited for her for about an hour. Our men at Dicosta corporations told me that, that slut that Leonardo is seeing came by, I wanted to go in there and tell him my peace of mind but I stopped. I called vicento and informed him about Leonardo and his little whore but vicento stopped me from going to that office so I decided to wait. So I sent him a text, Mr Leonardo Dicosta, So you invite your whores to your office to fuck even during working hours, I attached the picture of the slut to the message. Let my sister come out at 5 pm I am waiting to take her some. The picture our men sent me when the slut was going into the office and when she was coming out, proves Leonardo had sex with her. Her appearance was dishevelled, and it pissed me off to know that Leonardo does not have respect for my little sister.

One of the men commented, Mr Dicosta, your secretary is very beautiful and she will not be bad in bed, Why don't you give her to me for just a night, I will make her feel good, then the men started laughing at his comment except my brother and Leonardo.
