Rita POVI was still unconscious when I was brought in my room. I woke up feeling sore and the last thing I remembered was Shawn and a masked man dragging me.I think I fainted during their fight, I looked at my body and saw so many bruises to the extent that I attempted to stand up and I couldn't stand straight or work properly, I could only limp because my ankle hurts badly.I tried to sit back on the bed slowly but I fell immediately which also made me develop a headache.I tried to stand back up but it was to no avail. Waiting patiently on the bed trying to gather some energy, I pondered on what could have happened to Derrick and it seemed that I've gathered enough energy so I decided to go check if he has good news on the whereabouts of Michelle.I struggled and I finally got up from the bed and I limped my way to my room door and then to the room Derrick's stays in. I knocked and opened the door but I didn't see him in there but I saw a maid who was cleaning his room and she did

Michelle’s pov.Since we got back to the palace after that incident with Rita, things hasn't really felt the same, everything feels so odd and we've lost a lot of Palace staff too.For some very disgusting reason, I can still sense Rita's Aura and also the smell of blood lingering around which makes me wonder who did the cleaning around her. The person did a very terrible job.I decided to have a meeting with all categories of palace staff to know how we're going to recruit more workers.The palace has been gloomy ever since the night of the summit and many staff members died and others resigned out of fear of a re- occurrence.It's been a while since we did a little restructuring on the palace interior and I feel like this should be a good time to change the looks of the palace and also the people in it.“Raven, would you please call every staff in the palace and tell them that I would have to have a meeting with them later on in the lobby”“Okay your majesty” she said as she left im
Rita's POV.It's been almost two months and the stress of starting a company is still much work. My financial adviser said it will take a while before everything becomes stable.I started a corporate group with some other business tycoons, the primary goal I wanted was to have a good amount of companies under my name and jurisdiction that are active and competing with the best companies.So far, I decided to go into gold mining and that seemed very lucrative as the competition was not much in the market. The mining industry seems to be working in my favor.My father's company seems to be thriving here in Italy. He asked me to help him grow his business here in Italy. I've always known that my father wanted to establish his business here in Italy but never found somebody worthy to help him establish it.In just a few months, my father’s trust in me has really grown greatly and that's the main reason he gave me permission to oversee his business transactions of his concessions here in
Chapter 94Third Person’s POVSo much had happened in the palace including Michelle starting her very own company.She started a chain of restaurants and it has grown really fast and normally, in the culinary industry, for a restaurant to grow and be famous and have good reviews by food critics, it must have been in the food industry for a very long time, but Michelle Restaurants grew really fast.Although Michelle’s restaurants were growing fast, she encountered a little problem. The problem was not from the funds because she didn’t really have financial issues but it was because of the viewer’s acceptance.One thing she didn't want was for the restaurant to become famous or grow because of Shawn's fame. She wanted to do it on her own, so she started without letting people know that the restaurant had relations with the alpha king. She wanted the people to love the food naturally, she put in so much effort in sourcing new recipes.The amount of diligence she put into making the brand
Chapter 95Luciano POVRita Freeman, the woman of my dreams. I've always liked her before now, but I only knew her on social media. She has always had a remarkable fashion style that you can't but admire.I never thought that I would really see her in person and of all places, in my city. To crown it all up, she is not just a social model but she is very industrious business-wise and she's very hard working.“Hey, what are you thinking about ?”“Rita Freeman” I bluttered her name accidentally“Rita Freeman?, oh your current investor. The way you're spending on her and the way you're sending her expenses gifts, don't you think she will get the wrong idea?.”I haven't really thought about this. She may think that I think that she's cheap and can easily be bought with gifts but isn't that what ladies are like?“What do you think I should do?”“I think it is high time for you to talk to her. Your gift has said enough already and I think she gets the point now. Talk to her, know what she l
Third pov“That's uhm…, really uhm…, insightful” Rita thoughtlessly said.“Insightful?, does that mean you're not happy with it?” Luciano said with a disappointed face.“No that's not what I meant, I mean it was beautiful”“And what do you say?”“About what?” Acting clueless making the innocent man feel stupid.Rita hasn't changed a bit. It's a deep surprise that a fine outstanding young man like Luciano has fallen deeply for her, he doesn't know what she's made of yet.“I mean about everything I said.”“I heard you but then again I want you to say it, I want to hear it in the words from your mouth.” Rita talked as if he sang the poem to her and dramatically expressed the words in dancing.“I will try, but like I said before, I express myself better in writing but it seems you don't like it, so I'll talk.”“No it's not like that, it's ju–” he interrupts her.“Don't worry, it's fine. Rita, I haven't known you for a very long time neither have you also known me and I'm scared that you a
