Brielle choked more, tears streaming down her face. Realization hit Candy, and she snapped back to her senses. She let go of Brielle, her eyes widening as she realized she had let her anger take over.

Brielle knelt on the floor, coughing out the cup and saliva. Her throat burned from the pain inflicted by the force. She had thought she was going to die.

Candy's gaze shifted to the other workers. They were all staring at her in awe.

This was the first time someone stood up to Brielle.

Brielle stood up, her face contorted with anger. She faced Candy and wanted to yell, but one of the employees greeted the man who had just stepped in.

"Good morning, Mr. President," the others chorused.

"Mr... P... President," Brielle quickly bowed her head.

"What happened?" Diego directed the question to Candy. She shifted her gaze to Diego. Brielle's hands were sweaty; she should do something.

"Mr. President, I can explain what..." Brielle began to speak, but his cold voice cut her off.

    The sound of a light groan could be heard as Diego's fist collided with the punching bag, sweat dripping down his hard-toned body. His wet hair was glued to his face, making him look damn hot in his shorts.Releasing the last punch, Diego's chest heaved as he turned his head to the figure who had just stepped in.Candy swallowed, and her heart skipped a beat."I... I brought lunch," she stuttered. How could the Devil look so good? She watched him drink from his bottle water."Did Jameson send you?" he asked, not looking at her."Yeah, he had something to do," she replied."Drop it," he ordered, and she went to place it on the table. She turned to leave, but his voice stopped her."Don't go yet."Candy turned to face him. He lay on the bench, resting the back of his head on his palm."I need a massage," he demanded.Candy scoffed inwardly. Is he serious right now, ordering her while she was at work? She should have rejected Jameson's offer when he asked. She wanted to refuse, but he sp

    Candy disconnected herself from Xavier and cleared her throat.Xavier immediately knew she wasn't comfortable with what he had just done."I'm sorry. I was just too excited to see you," he said."No, it's fine... I..." Her remaining words got stuck in her throat as she felt someone's presence behind her. She had almost forgotten this man was here. She could feel his burning gaze on her."President Diego, how have you been?" Xavier greeted with a cheerful smile, stretching his hand for a handshake.As expected, Diego looked down at his hand and back up at him without removing both hands from his pockets."You've never shaken hands with me ever since we became business partners. How cold," Xavier said."Business partner?" Candy thought. So that was the reason Diego came to them."Let's get down to business," Diego said and walked past him."I'll see you soon, Candy," Xavier said quickly and followed Diego."Who was that?" Yazmine nudged Candy from behind."An old friend. We kinda dated

    Diego checked his phone after a beep came in. His eyes flickered with something dangerous. He stood up and left the room without excusing himself. Xavier wasn't surprised by this, but he recalled Candy. How come she is an employee at the Gonzalez company, even with her father's wealth? When Diego appeared after he had hugged Candy, he saw the trace of anger in his eyes directed at him. And that had scared him a little. Why? ___ Candy woke up due to the water poured on her head. She found herself in a not-so-dark room. She tried to move but found she was tied to a chair. Raising her head, she saw Natalie sitting with her leg on top of the other. Beside her was Vortex, who had a creepy smile on his face. "How was your vacation, Candy?" Natalie asked with a cold look. "Let me go!" she yelled. "Tssk... You're such a stubborn kid who gets on my nerves right from your childhood. How ungrateful of you to run off on your wedding. Do you know the humiliation you put me through

    At that moment, Vortex knew he was in deep hell. Candy's eyes widened. That was unexpected, and the fact he referred to her as his made her feel conflicted. "I'm sorry, please. I didn't mean to. I had no idea," Vortex was terrified. He had heard about Diego. His underworld side was something one shouldn't mess with. "Remove your hand without touching the knife," Diego ordered, and Vortex's eyes widened. That would bring him so much pain. "Sir Die...go.. I" "Should I do it for you then?" Diego raised his brow. If he did, then that hand would be gone. He wanted to see Vortex torture himself. "I'll do it!" Vortex yelled and stared back at his hand, which hurt badly. Removing his hand without touching the knife meant cutting himself. What a torture! "You're fucking wasting my time." His deep voice made Vortex shudder in fear. Tears streamed down his face. Closing his eyes, he removed his hand forcefully, the knife cutting through his flesh, sending extreme pain through his

    Meanwhile, Diego was before Old Mavis, who had a stunned look on his face."Who was that?" Old Mavis asked."That was my wife. I would have brought her here with me, but she is not feeling too good. She needs to rest," Diego replied.Hannah, who was beside Old Mavis, frowned and clenched her fist. Venessa, who was beside her, heaved with nervousness.Diego sounded as if they were close."That's a fake bride, Diego," Hannah challenged."Fake bride? You saw clearly I got married to a woman that day," he said."You mean the girl I saw in your house?" Venessa asked this time."My house?" Diego frowned, as did Hannah. Venessa immediately realized she shouldn't have said that."You went to my house without my permission? How bold," he remarked, anger lacing his voice.Hannah quickly tried to smooth the situation."What is her name? Is she close to the family?""That, I can't tell you at the moment. But I'll introduce her to the family soon when she is ready," Diego replied."Venessa is the

  • Married To The Billionaire Devil    Chapter 19: Sweet touch

    Candy was stunned for a moment but drifted into the pleasure of his lips moving on hers. It wasn't rough like their previous kisses but gentle.Pinning her against the wall, Diego dived his tongue into her mouth. Candy traced her hand up to his hair, her tongue playing with his.He wanted more; the taste of her lips was messing with his brain. He had never gone slow on a kiss before, but right now, he was doing it and couldn't seem to stop.He slid his right hand down to her tiny waist, drawing her close to himself, while the other hand held her head in place. Their lips burned as they moved against each other, and Candy moaned into his mouth. She got immersed in his sweet touch and pressed herself against him.After savoring each other's lips for a while, Diego broke the kiss. His chest heaving gently as he slowly opened his eyes to look at her.Candy's eyes opened too, and their gazes met. She never knew he could have this gentle side of him.Staring at her closely, Diego slowly cam

    Natalie got to the hotel and headed straight to the room provided by Vortex.She knocked on the door lightly, and when she heard the man's permission, she stepped in.Vortex was sitting on the bed with a cigar dangling from one side of his lips. Noticing the cuts on his face, Natalie frowned."What happened to you?" she asked."Gangster shit," he replied as he stood and stepped toward her. "I almost got killed, but it's nothing since you're here," he said, puffing out smoke from his lips and nostrils. He raised his injured hand to Natalie."Let's get this over with," she said, pulling down her jacket."Easy, cupcake. I just want to have a little talk before we start," Vortex said."What?""It's about your first kill, my love. Mr. Jefferson, how did you feel when you killed him?" he asked, and Natalie immediately looked around the room."What?"Natalie pulled out a small knife and pointed it at him. Vortex took a sharp breath. He mustn't screw this up, or he'd be in serious trouble."D

    Hearing the question, Xavier tried to find a sign of Diego bluffing but didn't."Haha," Xavier let out an awkward laugh. "Why would you ask such a question all of a sudden? Of course, I don't wanna die...""Then watch it," Diego cut in coldly.Xavier frowned. He looked at Candy, who was speechless the whole time, and then back at Diego. Is there something between them?"I'm pretty busy these days. I won't have the chance to go out on a date with you," Candy rejected politely."You should get going; we'll talk business later on," Diego said to Xavier.Xavier nodded slowly. "Huh, right, I'll see you soon then," he said to Candy.Diego tried to keep himself from flaring up at him again until he left.Candy held her breath when it was only them left in the office. She could feel his cold glare on her."Were you going to accept him?" He tilted his head to one side."No, I wasn't. I have no feelings for him," she replied honestly."Really? And you accepted the flowers and also the cake if I

    "I love you so much, Mom. I wish to kiss your cheek right now," Alex said."Sure, baby, come," Candy said.The two boys came running towards her. They kissed each side of her cheek, and Diego sighed."You shouldn't talk or stand while eating," Diego stated."We wanted to kiss our mother. Is that a wrong thing to do, Father?" Andrew asked."I know what you're doing," Diego raised a brow."She is our mother," Alex said from behind."I can take her out on a vacation like I did last time," Diego said, warning dripping from his tone. He seemed to have won again since the boys didn't know what to say."Di," Candy called, seeing the boys' sad look."They are pretending," Diego knew these two devils better than Candy... they were practically him."Di," Candy called again."Fine... I'm not taking only her. Actually, we are all going on a vacation," Diego stated, and the boys squealed with joy.Candy took Andrew onto her lap while Diego took Alex, and they began to feed them.Old Mavis smiled.

    Twins?Shock registered on Diego's face; of course, he wasn't expecting it."What did they say?" Candy's weak voice brought back his attention. She couldn't hear them earlier due to exhaustion."Bring them over," he demanded from the nurses, and the two boys were handed carefully to him. His eyes teared up as he stared at the two blessings.This was his first time holding children—they were his. Never had he thought a day like this would actually come."W...we have twins," his voice trembled with excitement. "And they are both boys," he laughed lightly.Candy chuckled, her weak hand reaching to touch each of them.

    The next day, Jameson and the others were admitted to the hospital to tend to their wounds.Aiden was chatting with Blake when Yazmine appeared."Yaz!" he exclaimed, standing up."Aiden!" Yazmine ran to hug him tightly. Aiden did the same, kissing her neck."That jerk has a girlfriend," Blake muttered. His phone beeped; it was time for him to leave. He gave Aiden one last look and left."Did you miss me that much?" Aiden asked as Yazmine continued to hug him tightly."You have no idea," Yazmine mumbled. "I was so scared when I heard about the bomb. Are you hurt?" she asked, looking up at him."Just a little...""Huh? Where? Let me see," she demanded, checking out his body."Yaz, I'm fine," he assured her, but she refused to listen. Aiden pecked her lips, and she froze."I'm fine," he said again, tucking her loose hair behind her ear.

    Vincent roughly made his way to Hannah's ward. He was a mess, lean and dirty to look at. The man appeared as someone who had lost his world.Opening the door, he staggered in but then frowned, seeing Hannah lying on the floor.He took slow steps approaching her."Hannah?" He called lightly but didn't get any movement from her. "Honey, why are you sleeping on the floor?" He asked, shaking her body.His eyes darted around the room after perceiving a strange scent. His eyes caught a strange container on the table. With slow movement, he reached for it and gasped when he saw what it contained.Poison..."No... no," Vincent shook his head. His eyes caught a paper too, and he took it to read.'It's all my fault. I destroyed the family I had dreamt of, and I hate myself for it. I'm so sorry.'"What? Hannah, no, no... please, you can't do this, no!" Vincent yelled, holding Hannah's body to himself. Tears rolled down his face uncontrollably."Hannah, wake up! What am I supposed to do without

"Where are the rest of you?""In your ass.

    The men in the room literally choked on their saliva and began to cough. Candy's face turned pale and red. This would be the first time hearing that walking could affect pregnancy. "No, no it doesn't," she shook her head vehemently. She couldn't imagine Diego carrying her all around the house. "Don't worry, wife. I'm strong enough to do that every single day," he replied. "Huh? No, you don't have to. I'm fine." Diego didn't listen as he led her back to the room, placing her gently on the bed. "Wait here, I'll get something to eat," he kissed her forehead and left. Candy's mouth stayed open. Gosh! He is so adorable. She laughed lightly at his reaction seconds ago; it was so cute. Diego came back after some minutes, an alluring meal laid on the tray he was holding. "The chef made this," he stated. "Wow, it looks so good," Candy squealed, smiling like a kid. "Thanks, hubby."

    Venessa held her red cheek and shot a glare at Yazmine. "Here is a drink, ex-boss," Jackie said, spilling the water in her hand on Venessa's dress. "You!" Venessa yelled at them as she stepped forward with a glare. "Girl, don't even try what's inside that birdbrain of yours 'cause you'll surely regret it when I shove my heels into your mouth," Yazmine warned, her voice cold as hell. "You're just sad, and trust me, you haven't seen enough. I'll pay you back for what you did to me. We're just getting started," Venessa glared. Yazmine didn't reply. Not that she didn't know what to say, she just didn't want to waste precious saliva because of the dumbass. "You can take the remaining drink," Jackie said, dropping the bottle on the floor before following Yazmine. Yazmine took a deep breath in frustration after driving away from the company, with Jackie seated by her side. "I have no idea what I'm doing," she muttered.
