I decided to give our lovely Tiana some romantic moment. Don't worry we'll soon get back to the main story but we could use some side story for now, right? Please vote for this book 💖
Sebastian blinked at her question. Why would she want to know his name? "It's because I'm interested in you. Mine is Tiana Accardi and yours?" She replied frankly with a wide smile and Sebastian was sure he had never been stunned in his life. He was dumbstruck. Did this lady just tell him she was interested in him? Just like that?Tristan chuckles at his friend's expression and replied for him. "He's Sebastian, Sebastian Maltese" Tiana's thought after hearing his name was 'He's Italian' He being Italian was even better.Sebastian glared at his friend then focused on Tiana once more. "Look, Miss Accardi. I understand you took a liking to my looks and everything, bu-" "No, I've heard a lot about you from my boss but seeing the real you made me like you. Is it bad that a girl can like a man she had just met?" She questioned, ignoring the chortle of Alonzo who was behind her."No no, miss, you are very allowed to like him. This guy had been single all his life, he might use some relat
"It's actually a surprise we were able to finish our plans for the exhibition, three days before it. You see that working with PHANTOM has it own perks" Talisa told her assistant after she finished reviewing the process of the exhibition."I agree, it was a good thing you reached out to them" Tiana paused, then continued "Boss, I saw the VP and his mistress sneaking around. I think it's about the exhibition"Talisa also knew the effort Steve had been putting into sabots her plans, but he didn't know the person whose plan was being destroyed was his. Advantages of being reborn includes one thing- you know exactly how things had turned out. And she was using it to her advantage."Let them sneak around to their heart content. Nothing can stop the exhibition tomorrow. I'm definitely going to have it" It was something that would determine the future of her company. The door suddenly burst open and Adalyn, who was dressed in black and pink jumpsuit came in.She frowned at Talisa and Tiana
It was a surprise considering she wasn't expecting him to ever smile at her. The others looked between them and had all had crease brows "What's going on here? What do you mean by it's all thanks to him? Did he help you with this?" Tristan asked and Adalyn was the one who replied."How else do you think this was put in place. Reggie did it all" Everyone were astonished, considering how Regan had been avoiding her for years. "That's quite unexpecte--" Sebastian's word was cut off by the voice of the MC. The show had began. "This event is the celebration of the collaboration between FW, headed by President Talisa Wauter and PHANTOM, headed by President Regan Keyvan. So, before this event starts, we would call the president of FW, Mrs Wauter, to give us her speech" The guests cheered as Talisa hurriedly left her family to go to the stage. She wasn't nervous since there was nothing to be nervous about. She smiled confidently as she climbed up the stage. "Thank you everyone for gran
The screen turned on and it showed footage of FW design department as they made the designs that had been given to them. It showed how hard they had been working to keep up with the deadline...then suddenly, the screen showed black and white like it was cracking, then it shifted to a video of a man and woman in an office, heavily making out. Loud moans and groans filled the hall and everyone's eyes widened."Are you sure the door is properly locked?" The woman whom every employees of FW immediately recognised as the new PA of the VP asked. "Don't worry, even if it's not locked, no one would dare enter the Vice president's office without my permission" The Vice president's urgent voice followed."The 'no one' doesn't include your bitch of a wife, right? Since she's the owner of the company, she can come in anytime" Isabella's voice sounded aggrieved and they saw as Steve gave a smacking kiss on her lips. "Don't worry about her, she still thinks you are my cousin so there's no reason
"Regan" She called again, her voice soft and very seductive. He didn't attempt to push her away but simply watched."Do you hate me?" "'No" his response held no hesitation. "Why? You hated me, right? It's that why you said those hurtful things to me? Isn't that why you started calling me Tally? Isn't that why you are being cold to me?" She sobbed as she let out her aggrievement. He gave an helpless look as he replied "I don't hate you, how could I possibly do that?" He lifted his hand to caress her face. He had missed being able to touch her at will. Talisa didn't seem to believe him as she continued "You told me to stay away and ignored me anytime you see me. Isn't that because you hated me?" She then wailed as she wrapped her hands around his neck. The drug was making her audacious but who was she to complain. It was actually making talking to Regan easier. "You hated me because I killed our Ilyse, you treated me like stranger" She hiccuped with her eyes now totally red. "Regan
What the actual fuck! To say she was shocked was an understatement after hearing what he had said. She looked at him and saw the nonchalant look he was giving her. "Wh..why are you telling me this?" She couldn't understand the reason he had decided to tell her instead of leaving her to be ignorant of it. He only looked up from his cup of copy then he grinned. He didn't seem to hold any grievance against her anymore and his expression had told her that. "Is there a reason you shouldn't know? Even if we've broken up, what's yours is yours. I just didn't have the opportunity to tell you before now" "Why are you being carefree with me?" She couldn't help but ask. She had to know to know how she was going to relate to him going forward. He stood up from his sit and started walking towards her. She stood up as if it was the most natural thing to do and now she was standing in front of him. "Why aren't you afraid of me?" He asked her just the same way she had questioned him. 'Why w
*Warning: This scene might be uncomfortable for some people, so you are free to skip*Steve opened his eyes, albeit painfully,. and checked his surroundings. Even with his eyes opened, it was no different from when it was closed as the place he was was utterly dark. He could hear the continuous tapping of something, like water was dropping and that was what made him realise he was standing inside water. He froze then tried to move his body, only to notice it had been tied to a pole-like structure. He grunted as he moved around relentlessly.Where the hell was he? "You are finally awake" He heard voice which sounded like the angels from hell were beckoning him to come. He flinched."Who are you? Why are you keeping me here?!" He bellowed as he struggled to get freed from whatever was typing him down but he only heard the clanking of metals around him.He could hear footsteps advancing towards him, then suddenly it stopped and blinding light shone. He was finally able to see where he
It's been two weeks since FW's exhibition and the company's status has risen higher as it was everywhere on news and Magazines that even big companies were seeking to collaborate with them.

Two on each couch.Elina had came to visit Talisa today and the other two girls had left their offic
Rebirth of the scorned wife Chapter 57 Adalyn immediately turned to her boyfriend and went to sit beside him the moment she recalled she had unknowingly ignored him."You are not angry, right?" She asked, battering her lashes at him pitifully. Since Carlos couldn't stay angry at her, he sighed helplessly and replied "I'm not" Tristan rolled his eyes at him "You both aren't even married yet but I can guess you'll be a henpecked husband when that time comes" "And what's wrong with being an henpecked husband?" Carlos retorted."Good question. Our men should listen to us as we are always right and they shouldn't even pick fights with us, isn't that right, honey?" Talisa says then glanced at Regan who immediately nodded in agreement with her. "We all know Regan is pussywhipped so he probably won't disagree" Sebastian replied with a sneer, Regan glared at him."You all should stop arguing on someone's engagement party. We understand you guys are in an happy relationship but would you
Tiana sat at her dressing table as she was being made up for her engagement party. There were several stylists in her room and even make up artists. Her father really went out of his way for the party."It's all done" The make up artist said as she took a good look at Tiana."Oh my! who is this beauty?" She exclaimed and that made Tiana smiled. She was satisfied with her looks. She stood up then walked to were the dress options were. There were different dresses laid in front of her and she was having an hard time deciding which to pick as they were all very pretty. "It's so hard to pick one" She says as her eyes skimmed through the dresses. Why would they give her so many beautiful options, it was damn hard to pick one! Finally, her eyes managed to stay on one and she decided to pick it. "Miss Accardi surely have eyes for good stuffs. Your choice is literally the best" One of the stylists praised her as they helped her put on the dress. The dress was a cream coloured silky dress
It wasn't even up to an hour yet, when Regan heard a 'beep' sound which indicated there was a message from his phone. He clicked on it and saw the information Xander had sent to him. His lips curled up in an evil smile when he realised who was playing with him. He glanced at Alonzo who had been quietly watching him, then stretched out his phone so he could also take a look at the message also. "Send the details to Carlos, tell him to take care of it" "Okay, Boss" Alonzo then walked out of the office to carry out his order. Meanwhile, Regan continued his work because he had lots to do. Alonzo returned shortly, telling him he had carried out the order. Regan nodded in understanding before continuing his work. It was evening time and Regan was still working. The door of his door opened and Alonzo entered with another stack of files which he need to go through. Regan glared at the files as if they would disappear if he does that, then he sighed heavily."Where are these ones coming
Sebastian rested his hand under his chin as he looked out of the car window. The meeting between their parents had been successful and the engagement date was just in three days. Their parents gave the excuse that both of them had delayed the engagement for long so it couldn't be postponed further. Like it was his fault, wasn't Tiana the one who ran away?"Bro, stop being gloomy and cheer up" He heard the annoying voice of his younger brother which made him glare at the latter. "I'm not gloomy" Their parents had taken a different car for their supposed privacy while Sebastian was stuck with his annoying brother in this car. Angelo finally put down his phone then fully faced his brother "You can't get out of this marriage, hope you know that? It's even worst now that the girl is interested in you" "I know. One can only get out of an arranged marriage in the Mafia through death" He interjected. Silently praying for his brother to keep quiet. The reason he was thinking was because o
Tiana had gotten dressed in a gorgeous Purple dress which hug her figure in all the right places. Her Fiancé and his family were coming over that night for their union. She was applying makeup to her face when she heard a knock on the door to her room."Who is it?" She asked and the door slightly opened, revealing her older brother, Roberto who was peeking his head inside. She smiled when she saw he was the one."You should come in. Why are you peeking inside like a thief?" Roberto chuckled as he opened the door, wider enough for him to pass through. "Little sis seems more accommodating than usual, is it because you are now the personal assistant to the president of a company?" He says as he walked towards her then plopped his bottom on one of the chair in her room. Roberto had same features as Tiana, so, it wasn't hard to know they were siblings. Only that his features were more pronounced and manly. Tiana scoffed then continued applying her make up "I'm only accomodating becaus
Regan looked into her determined eyes with his scorching ones and suddenly, he bursted into laughter. His deep throaty laughter did something in her stomach and her eyes widened as she wasn't expecting him to laugh at all. The guy she had loved all her life was weird, like really weird and now she was actually seeing the side of him he had never allowed her to see in the past. "Bambina, why are you being so serious, hmm? You came barging into my house and doing all sort of things and now you are threatening me?" He then started moving and now she was the one trapped between him. Talisa didn't listen to anything else he had said after she heard him call her 'Bambina'. 'Doesn't that mean I'm on the lover stage?' 'If he calls me that then it means we are fine, right?' She wondered and Regan actually noticed her distracted look. He sighed before releasing her and started walking away. The moment Regan began walking away, she immediately came back to her senses and held him back. "Do
Adalyn heard what her friend had said and she glared at her."What do you mean by me spending company money on shopping? Women like me shouldn't appear in an event, looking out of place" "I sincerely pity Carlos for his future appears bleak at this moment" Talisa replied as she stood up in order to go continue her work. Adalyn only stuck out her tongue as she uttered "He isn't complaining" "When you go back home, remember to text me when the engagement party would be so I can clear my schedule" Talisa ignored her friend to reply to Tiana."No problem" *** It was some minutes past nine in the evening. Tiana had left earlier because she went home to prepare for her journey which was going to happen the next day. Adalyn had also went home when it was the usual time for everyone to finish work for the day.Talisa turned off the light in her office as she walked out. The floor she was was quiet like there was no living being in it but she could see the lights in some office on, which
