Chapter 7Dante’s POVI knew as soon as my mother left, River wouldn’t pass the opportunity to question me who Angelica was, especially since my mother made it seem like she almost ruined my life.Technically, it’s not a lie, but honestly, I’m in a much better place than ever. The last thing I needed to do was reminisce on my high school sweetheart, whom I dated all through and even after college.“An old acquaintance of mine.”She rolled her eyes at me, “some acquaintance indeed.” She muttered under her breath. I took a deep breath trying to gather my cool. “Drop it, okay? I don’t want to talk about it, especially not right now., I have work to do at the moment and would like to be excused .”I pushed my chair forward and opened my laptop. River had an upset look now, “Well if you’ll excuse me, sir, I’ll just be going back to my office, which I’d still be at if you hadn’t called me from.”I know I should say something to stop her or something. But I know all too well how women can a

Chapter 8 Rivers POVI walked out of his office and he didn't even bother trying to stop me. The man is insufferable and if not for the stupid attraction and need to pamper my ego. I would have tendered in my resignation because who the hell does he think he is?I took the elevator, hoping I could still locate my office, which I did. Luckily, getting inside, I let curiosity get the best of me, and I took out my phone and logged into my social media app.Weirdly since the last video went up of Dante and me in the court, I've acquired double-time my followers, and my engagements have been crazy. I might as well turn into an influencer or something.I typed up the name Angelica and then tapped the first name with a blue tick; I didn't even have to wonder if I was on the right page or not. It was her, to be honest, the woman is absolutely and completely stunning.She has jet-dark hair, sea-green eyes, beautiful model features, and a great toned body. I could see how she could leave a man

Chapter 9River's POVAs I strolled back from the cafe, for like half a second I felt for a few seconds eyes watching me. I turned and looked around but the feeling disappeared as quickly as it came. I didn't have to wonder who it was; it could probably be Dante or someone he sent.I walked briskly with my pastries and coffee; entering the building, I could still see the secretary give me some type of stupid weird eye. And honestly, I'd about had it. I walked straight up to her desk and put on my icy sweet smile."Excuse me, I think we started on the wrong foot today. I'm River." I even extended my hand out to the b**tch. She eyes my hand like I'm some vermin and gives a tight smile, her red lipstick creasing."Oh, I know you, Rive,r, and the fact you don't remember me makes it all the way worse. It's almost like you're mocking me."I arched an eyebrow in confusion and took a deeper look at her. Her face looked familiar to someone I used to know back, like way back."Could you possibl

Chapter 10RiverAs I walked to the my office, now in the elevator I couldn't help but wonder at if maybe rumors had started flying about myself and Dante. sincerely I didn't give two hoots if rumours had started circulating I was here to win back my honor and pride and get the hell out of this office.The elevator dinged and I got out, I mean why should I give a shit about people who wanted to be in my position after all. Most of the women here were probably only working here in hopes Dante would in as much as bat an eyelash their way.I know I sound cocky, but why shouldn't I. No one here knows how hard I worked to put my ass together and be noticed by the high and mighty. If they knew my story they'll be applauding me not hating.I pushed open my office door to see Baron seated on the visitors chair with a scowl on his face, I know he had probably been waiting a long time for me. He raised his head when he saw me, “Welcome miss, can we leave now we're quiet behind schedule.”I look

Chapter 11I swallowed the knot forming in my throat and walked to Dante who was casually leaning on his latest model of Gwagon Mercedes Benz. The man certainly had a thing of dark vehicles.He watched me like a predator watching his prey, not blinking, his sight not wavering. He wore a navy blue stripped suit and a crisp white shirt which the top bottons had been undone.I didn't need to come to close to know the shoes he wore were from Armani, now barely three feet away from him. I caught a whiff of his delicious manly woodly scent, I had to stop myself from inhaling deeply.He surprised me by abruptly straightening and catching me by my waist with an arms, the intensity of his stare almost made me look away but I didn't want to appear weak so maintained our locked gaze.“You look ravishing.” He said it without missing a beat and it filled me with a sense of power knowing he thought that. I don't know maybe it was the champagne from the shopping earlier or just this intoxicating man

Chapter 12Rivers Pov I woke up with a banging headache, the sunlight from day break spilled through the cracks of the window blinds. Eyes still closed cause they felt too damn heavy for me to open,I lesurely streched like a cat my muscles grateful for the release as they were deliciously sore.I tried to feel the space beside me hoping to come in could contact with Dante's body and enjoy his warmth but all I felt was the cool empty space of nothingness.My heart skipped a beat and I popped my eyes open too fast making me feel like my head was slightly spinning. True to what I had felt the bed was empty and cold letting me know Dante had got up from bed a while ago.A frown creased my brow, what the heck? But still the voice of reason in my head utterly stopped me from flying into the wild impossiblity that once more Dante Williams had just used me.I dragged the comforter up to my chest feeling slightly digust for my need for his approval and emotions. I shook my head vigourously, “

River's POVBaron met me half way, “Good morning miss River, hope you had a wonderful night.” I nodded in response.He took my briefcase and led me out of the building. I'm not shy or anything but I was grateful to be far from the incessant stares of the people in the lobby.He led me up to a car we hadn't used before, the car was a royal blue limo and even the interior was a beautiful almost white pastel blue color. He opened the door for me and I slipped in, him after me.I sat down sinking into the soft leather and to my surprise Baron handed me a mini tray of the breakfast I was offered just some minutes ago. Damn they really worked fast didn't they? I thought to myself.“Thank you.” I muttered which he nodded to and I focused on devouring the meal. Thoughtfully I noticed I hadn't yet offered Baron I looked up to see him looking at me with a odd look of pity but disdain.He immediately adjusted his facial expression and looked away and it was all I could do to keep myself from aski

River's POVI sat down in the litigation bar watching the exceptional young girl in the witness box being questioned by Mr Brown.

As it was a family matter, the judge announced that he will deliver his verdict in an hour as he doesn't like to delay family cases of custody.The court went in recess, I turned to look at the supposed aunt of the two lovely girls who obviously just wanted them so she could keep gaining access the massive trust fund her late sister left for her daughters.The woman had an aura around her that made you want to gag, with her heavy silver eyeshadow and shocking pink lipstick.

I had to meet Mr White at White water hotel, I really hoped it wasn't a conversation that would upset me.Throughout the day all that has happened has just been upsetting. Immediately I got to the office after the meeting I had to contact Sanders the best private investigator money could afford to get. I needed to know who exactly Jake was and what was the relationship between him and River. It was all too obvious today that they had some weird unfinished business going on and I'm determined to find out.I rubbed my forehead, it was really quite annoying that cared so much about this but I couldn't get it out of my head. The way they both locked eyes like some love sick couple of something. I adjusted my suit and stood up, texting my driver to drive up to the building front door. I wasn't in the mood to take a walk and run into someone who would want to chit chat.I didn't even page Baron to let him kn

River's POVI had wanted to drive to the little cafe spot Tessa had suggested we go to but she insisted it was just a few blocks away and a walk would help clear my head.We walked about a block then a small cute restaurant came into view. The smell of hot coffee with cinnamon buns waffed around my nose and I immediately worked up an appetite.We entered inside the cute cafe a few persons were already there but spotted an empty table by the window. It looked like the perfect Pinterest background but we weren't here for pictures anyways.“Hi welcome, my name is Amara.” A young waiter approached us, I could tell she was new,it made me smile. She looked about sixteen.“Oh hi, I'll have a latte and two cinnamon buns.” Tessa said warmly.“Make that for two.” “Okay, so you'll have them here or to go?” “We'll have them here, we'll be seated at the table by the window.” Tessa said.“I'll be right out with your orders.” She nodded and went to the counter.We sat at the table, and in as much

Dante’s POV I woke up already upset, my concise made me toss and turn the whole night. I absolutely hated how I ended things with River, I wanted things to end to protect her from myself.I didn't want to be the man that hurts a woman because he is not ready for a relationship. But the way I ended it was terrible and the fact that I knew she would absolutely hate me right now and had the right to did not sit well in my chest.I got up from my bed swinging my legs on the ground to touch the cool tiles. I needed coffee to clear the fog in my mind before I took a shower and headed to work.I pressed the intercom and the voice of my butler came through, “Good morning master Dante.” “Good morning, please tell the kitchen to send up my coffee.”“Okay sir, would you like a toast or something.” “No Howard just coffee”“They’ll have that right up.”My butler Howard was more than just a butler to me, he was like a father figure. I had known him since like forever my parents were hardly aroun

River's POVYesterday's session with the therapist was amazing, he was professional, compassionate and knowledgeable. I even had to disclose to him that I had ran into Jake at the wine shop. He advised I stay away from him till I was able to clearly sort out the residue emotions I still had for him else he would manipulate and bend me to his will.As much as I had wanted to deny and claim that I was too healed for that, my reaction to seeing him at the door told me otherwise. A part of me still had feelings for him and I needed to deal with it.This morning I woke up by 4’00am sharp to start preparing what I was to present at the meeting today. Mr Brown had sent me template on how to structure my report, he was extremely pleased with my outcome at the court.Unlike that silly Dante, who seemed mildly impressed. Now standing in front of the mirror I adjusted my navel blue blazer which I pair with matching office palazzo pants. I wore a cream camisole inside and paired the whole looked

Tessa's POV I woke up to a banging headache, i struggled to open my eyes as I sat up shielding my eyes from the sunlight. I glanced at my alarm clock to see it was already evening, I had slept the whole day. Last night was terrible, it all started with that text from the man who caused all my pain.I got a text from my father, “Hi Tessa, I know this is an unexpected request. But I'm in town and I'd like the chance to meet up and talk over dinner, please it's really important.”I looked at the text with disdain and of course immediately called my mother, who to my surprise asked me to grant his request. Begrudgingly I sent him a message to text the address of where he wanted us to meet up.He responded in a second, “Blue waters Restaurant.”I rolled my eyes thinking how he just had to rub it in by choosing an expensive place to prove a financial point. I headed there and when I got to the restaurant I felt very out of place. I wasn't even dressed to the standard of the restaurant bu

Dantes' PovToday was turning out to be an even more annoying day than I planned for. Firstly I planned to get my mind off River by all means, that was what led me call Ashley up to my office to make out.My problem with Ashley was although she's good in bed, she was extremely clingy and desperate. The very opposite of the kind of girl I needed at the moment, I needed a no strings attached kind of woman.Immediately she got to my office I regretted my decision, she came up looking excited. “Hi baby, I've missed you so much. Just know I'm here stay for good now that you've finally removed Rivers claws off you.”“Don't ever mention her name, you don't have that right.” I said angrily surprising myself and even Ashley.She looked hurt for a brief moment but quickly masked it closing the distance between us. She pushed my rolling chair back and sat on my legs straddling me. As she ran her fingers through my hair and down my chest. “I've missed you so much baby.” She said in her sultry vo

River's POV “Wow, that's a huge one. But you may not like what I'm about to say. That particular case is very personal to Dante he'll want to hear all about it before the board meeting tomorrow.”I immediately felt down cast, “well Mr Brown could brief him about it himself. I really don't want to be anywhere near him after yesterday, I just want to keep my head down and do what I need to do.”Baron looked at me with understanding, “I know but keep it professional. Even if it feels like your heart is bursting hold it together, don't let it weigh you down in his front.I thought about it for a second and realized Baron was damn right, “And if I don't go Mr Brown would tell him I was the one who won the case, it'll become obvious I'm trying to avoid him which will make him think I really care.”“Exactly!”I took a deep breath and nodded at Baron, “I'll go brief him, I'll keep it cute and very professional. He doesn't deserve to see me break down actually.” Baron's eyes brightened, “I k

Tessa's POVI watched River walk out the door and I felt bad for her. The poor girl never seemed to catch a break, although I had to put some damn respect on her name.She wasn't the sweet, weak River my friends and I used to push around. To say I regretted how I acted out back then would be an understatement, I was just lashing out because my parents had a messy marriage.Everyday, I had to sit through my mother's rants about how she only married my Dad because she found out she was pregnant with me by him.I grew up an only child and my Dad did quite well but he never spent his money on myself and my mum. He spoilt his mistress and her obese son silly, my mum was a minimum wage earner.She did her best to make sure I lacked nothing but I paid by listening to her tell me I pretty much ruined her life. My only escape was coming to school and acting all high and mighty. I really used to be jealous of girls like Samantha who came from a happy home.Her parents were stinking rich, we're

Chapter 16Dante's POVAs soon as she left my office, I stood up to chase after her and apologize but I stopped mid way. I from my monitor I watched her gently sway till she got to the elevator I felt like absolute shit but I knew deep in my heart I wouldn't have anything to say to her if I chased after her. I didn't have anything tangible to offer her that could soothe the hurt my words must have caused her.I walked back to my desk and punched the wall. My fist went through it, “Shit!” I muttered to myself.My fist hurt like hell but that was the least of my concerns. Call me childish for not being able to move on completely from my ex and give what I was feeling a chance. But I had resigned to the life of a bachelor, I wasn't even sure I could give myself completely to River not now or even ever.I know she was probably playing me but something tells me, her emotions had gotten the best of her and she was fully involved now.It was best I hurt her now than later where it would ta
