Honestly, I'm losing my focus and I can't really understand what's happening to me.

But I guess everything's under control.

With Massimo's presence, I'd little to worry about.

This past years had been very tremendous. Lot of things had been achieve because of Massimo's support.

It's quite unbelievable how we've got many business partners just in this short while. The deal that would bring about lot of many soon for me due to the deal I reached two days ago was a result of Massimo's relentless efforts.

I must confess, Massimo is a Solomon when it comes to handling stuffs as his strategic planning and suggestions always heeded Good results.

But there's this one person I can't stop thinking about; Miss Universe. The lady I can't wrap my head around with.

This is the strangest thing that'd happen to me, but I must not let him know I am.Come on, Mariah, put yourself in order.

What am I gonna tell this devil to make him believe I'm not spying out on him?Would any excuse possibly clear his doubt?I felt terrified, I wasn't expecting him now. Of course he told me he wouldn't come around any time soon; why then, did he changed his mind?I stood uprightly, pretending I'm trying to put the reports inside his drawer then I said "I'm...""What are you doing here?"

    CASSIAN POVI slept so soundly like a baby yesterday night with the assurance, I've got everything under control.The room felt chilly which made me rub my hands together for warmth.Then, the thought of Maxwell came into my mind.It's unbelievable to see Maxwell isn't under my custody anymore. I could not keep track of the multiple number of times I woke up at night asking myself if I was literally dreaming.I never believed something of this nature could ever happen.I huffed and hissed at the thought of Maxwell.Anyway, it's won't be long till I get him. I got up from my bed and hastily walk to my bathroom when my phone rings out.I deliberately ignored the call; I don't think I need anymore bad news this morning that would spoil my entire day and plans.I took a quick shower and came out from the bathroom and check through my phone to see a message that reads _ 'all the details needed to know the whereabouts of Maxwell I've been sent to your email'.I tried checking to know the pe

    "I don’t care how you’d do it, but make sure Mariah marries him because none of my daughters are going to marry that rascal.”My brows furrowed as confusion washed over my face. ‘What rascal are they talking about? And why should I marry him, but not her daughters?’“Of course, she is definitely going to marry him but…”“But nothing, Maxwell. Rachel and Rebecca are your precious daughters, you can’t watch them marry that man, right?” she said in a persuasive tone.Her words and actions left me rolling my eyes in disbelief. Rachel and Rebecca are his precious daughters, am I not his daughter too? Don’t I deserve to be precious too?I huffed. I was about ignoring them and continue my trip to the kitchen, but my father noticed my presence and called me.“I believe you heard our conversation,” he said, staring at me as if he’s waiting for a response but I didn’t say anything, so, he continued. “You’re getting married to Cassian Gavino in two days time.”Surprised, I stared at him in disbe

If I fall for his lies now, Cassian might have me fired since he'd succeeded to have me on his bed.Even if he wouldn't, I need to maintain my stand until the perfect time.Cassian asking me to have lunch with him is his usual way to lure woman to calm his sexual urge; nothing more.I can't be Elvira! I wouldn't make any mistake that would jeopardise my chances of revenge.After all, I'm here for a different mission rather than being a mare secretary.On a second thought, I expected Cassian to be strict with me after turning down his demand to have lunch together but he wasn't strict at all to me.He was still as gentle as a dove but why's being this nice made me uncomfortable.This isn't the Cassian I use to know in my previous life. He was an animal and very difficult to work with. Maybe he'd chosen
