"What the-"His words got stuck in his throat at her next words. It didn't end there, he watched with his eyes bulging out and the towel around his waist fighting the threat of being torn by his rod. The beautiful and tempting woman was stark naked before him.She was looking at him fiercely, as if daring him. She was daring him.Unfortunately, that wasn't the only embarrassing yet arousing fact. The worse was that he was just tying a towel around his waist and he was dripping with water. He had gone to take a quick shower and just wanted to get dressed for the night. Vincenzo had totally forgotten that there was one person in the house who wasn't a servant. Someone who could be so daring and bold to barge into his room without knocking.As he stared at her too, he remembered the words of Martin. She was his cure and he needed to make love to her for the experiment to continue. He wanted to make love to her badly.He truly wanted to have her screaming under him with that fierce gaze
Vincenzo staggered into the house without the help of his bodyguard. His mind was filled with nothing but the words of Ariana earlier that night. He walked, staggering at some point until he got to Ariana's room. He wondered if she was sleeping already. Pushing the door gently, he entered the dimly lit room which was filked with her scent.He stared at the girl who was almost naked with the transparent nighties on her. Did she sleep like this knowing the door was not locked? What if Jeff comes in and sees her naked?He was filled with anger, staring at the oblivious girl who was sleeping rather peacefully. He wished he could teach her a lesson!Vincenzo smiled amidst his drunken state, realizing the perfect punishment for her. He watched her lay on the bed but it was too dark to make out her face. He wondered if his heart was joking with him? Was he truly fallen for her? He had vowed never to love any other woman after what Hailey did to him. And he had stayed away from every woman
Rex took a deep breath, staring at his reflection in the mirror. Today was going to be a tough day. It was the first step to prove to his father that he was better than that bastard.He was going to take over the company as the legitimate heir. His eyes drifted to the woman on the bed. She was looking so beautiful and sexy. He was happy he made the right decision to get rid of Ariana.He had never loved her, not even when they started. He was just helpless at that time. She was the only one that was willing to help him out then.It wasn't his fault that he doesn't love her or he took advantage of her love for him. He was just trying to survive. Anyone would do the same in his shoes. He had no choice but to play along with the feelings he never had.It was just a pity she got pregnant. Rex shook those thoughts away as he went to the bed to meet Vera. They had had fun all night. He reluctantly got up this morning because he had to make a good impression on his father again. "Leaving
Her eyelids fluttered slightly with her hair cascading all over her face. She tried to open her eyes but the tiny ray of light escaping the window blind pierced her delicate eyes."Ssssssss" she hissed, trying to raise her body up.She felt sore and her body seem as if it was run over by something heavy. Did she fall of the bed last night? She tried to stand up again but felt caged as if someone held her tightly.Ariana squinted her brows as a tiny bit of memory seem to display before her. Then she felt the scent hitting her. She moved her eyes downwards only to see a pair of dark yet lustful eyes groping over her body.She felt naked… she was naked!"What the heck are you doing in my room, Vincenzo?" She screamed, trying to wrap herself with the covers.She failed miserably as Vincenzo refused to let go of his grip on the bed cover. He smirked, drawing her close to himself. She let out a whimper, her body hitting the strong chest."I could remind you," Vincenzo said, grinning, his ha
"Ariana…"Rex was filled with anger seeing those two together again. He was the same man at his wedding reception who defended Ariana. Could Vera be telling the truth? Was Ariana cheating on him even before he left her? The air seems to be filled with emotions flying around. Ariana who was still battling with the hatred and hurt in her heart was on the verge of bursting out. How could he still have the audacity to call out her name? "Call my name once again and I don't mind repeating what I did the last time!" She threatened, her eyes carrying the harbored hatred as she clenched her fist tightly.This scum just ruined her mood! If only she wasn't accompanying her boss, she would have loved to teach him another lesson. Not just another lesson but a bitter one that would wipe her name from his lips. He was truly a scum! "You are truly shameless, Ari. Tell me, were you cheating on me back then? And you still have the right to point fingers at me! Why don't you just agree you aborted m
Ariana looked at the smirk on his face. It began to dawn on her that maybe Vincenzo knew about the meeting and had brought her here to witness it.But why and what could she do? His earlier words played back in her mind. He did say she could make use of him." What do you suggest?" Ariana asked, deep hatred stuck in her eyes and words.Vincenzo smiled faintly, gazing at the direction of the man who was fuming. "Who is that man?" Ariana asked, after realizing that Vincenzo didn't bring her to see any client."He is our client and business associate!" Vincenzo replied, tilting his chin toward the man."The client?""Yes.," Vincenzo replied.Then he added," He is one of the ticket to your mission."If he was the ticket, then she would stop at nothing to follow up. So, she turned to stare at Vincenzo with determination."Tell me what to do" she spat out, the venom of hatred deeply rooted in her heart."Let's meet our client first and strike the deal…"They walked up to the man speaking to
The sound of the alarm kept ringing incessantly, and her hair fluttered all over her face. Ariana grudgingly opened her eyes, still feeling sleepy. She must have slept off unknowingly last night.She felt cold all over her body as the duvet slid down a little, exposing her fair succulent skin. Naked? Why was she naked and not putting on nightwear?“Wha-ouch! Why the fuck does my lip hurt so bad?” She asked, frowning deeply while holding the lower part of her lips.Ariana wondered if she accidentally ate her lips last night because that was undoubtedly how she was feeling right now! How could such a thing happen?“Ha! Thinking about that scum must have got me depressed these days. But then, I am lucky that my plans had already kicked off,” she murmured, getting off the spacious bed.Although the bed was comfy, she needed to get dressed for work. And for getting dressed, she remembered sleeping off in the car. Could it be the maids who brought her into her room and also changed her clo
Ariana took a deep breath again to calm her aching nerves. She got prepared to visit her mother as she wrapped up her work for the day. As soon as she stood up, she came face to face with the grim face of Vincenzo.When did he come to the office? Did he hear everything she and her mother discussed? “Going somewhere?” He asked, raising his brows.“Yes, Mr. President. I need to see my mother,” Ariana replied, picking up her bag.Vincenzo was about to say more but kept silent instead. He just received a message from his grandfather about his marriage. Grandpa Alberto wants to see both of them, but Vincenzo didn't want to stop Ariana from visiting her mother.He knew he was going to get an earful from his grandpa.“Do you need something from me?” Ariana asked, staring at Vincenzo.“No. You can go. The driver would drop you there,” Vincenzo said, turning around to go to his office.As soon as he left, Ariana also made her way out of the office. When she got to the entrance, her view was b
"What are you talking about?" Vincenzo asked after a long silent contest between him and Ariana."The men who attacked are behind bars," She sighed heavily then leaned against the chair. Her hands went to her belly, rubbing it with a soft smile on her face."My heart sank when I heard the news about you being in the hospital, my love."Ariana muttered, her hands were still rubbing her tummy but one could see the sadness in her eyes."Come here," Vincenzo said with a worried look on his face. He won't forgive himself if anything happened to her.And the last thing he wanted at this moment was for her to be sad.Ariana glanced at him then stood up from the chair she sat on. She slowly walked towards him and sat on the bed."Look here, Ariana. There's nothing for you to be sad about. I love you and that's the one thing you should know." He cupped his hands around her cheeks.Ariana stared into his eyes for a while then nodded."I'll stay strong," She smiled. She held his hands for a while
The man from before stepped out from the prison with a calm look on his face. He took out his phone and dialed a number."Hello boss," the speaker said from the other side of the call. There were noises from the background but the man knew exactly what was going on. He looked around and whispered a few words to the phone."Get the car ready and make sure you monitor them very well. The man has already asked us to unleash the plan so we must clear this case tonight and leave no trace behind, you get that?" He asked slowly, still looking around. The responder replied with an affirmation and the man nodded and ended the call."Let's see how you're going to escape from this. You're going to die tonight and I will make sure I leave no traces behind. This job caused me a lot and it's a risk to my life," He muttered then left the place.The man stepped inside his car and drove out of the place towards the bustling city. A few minutes later he packed his car in front of Vincenzo's mansion."
Hours passed by in a flash and the sound of people whispering drifted into Rex's ears. He tried to open his eyes but it seems like his muscles weren't ready to answer him.He struggled for a while but when he saw that it was pointless he laid on the bed and listened to what they were saying."Just take a look at how broken his fingers are, not even surgery can repair them. It is so unfortunate that he has to end up with those people. It seems they haven't stopped their endless and stupid traditions. Oh! I feel for him," A male sighed heavily and from the look of it. It seems he was in the prison hospital.'Was I taken here by them?' Rex thought."Come on, stop it already, look at the way you are speaking?! It's not like the one sleeping on the bed is innocent too! They are all criminals!" The white haired man yelled angrily."They committed a crime! They went against the rules and regulations of the country and so they must be punished by the law! So it is better you keep your mout
Rex sat in the far corner of the cell monitoring the other mates who were shooting glares at him. His mind was filled with thoughts. "It has been a day or two since I got trapped in this cell, while Ariana is out there with that fool," Rex clenched his hands tightly as waves of emotions overwhelmed him. "As long as my plans work out, I will never regret being in this place" He thought while still watching them. One of the burly men in the cell pointed at him and the duos behind him nodded.'I can sense trouble,' His eyes narrowed slightly as the huge man in the middle stood up and walked towards him with a cold and sinister look on his face."Newbie, isn't it about time you pay your respect to the elders in this place? I gave you two good days to come to your senses. Haven't I been generous enough?" He smirked. Rex calmly stared at him for a while then at the men behind him. He kept quiet and focused on the plan he had in mind."Hey you!" The man yelled angrily."You punk! Aren't
Vincenzo looked around his office, he didn't want to be here today, he knew that well, he would rather be at home with his beautiful wife and unborn child.But he also needed to work and sort things out and leave the house because he despised the idea of lying to Ariana.She didn't approve of him getting to the root of the matter, she was chill 'It's out there already' she said, justifying her nonchalant attitude toward the whole issue.He is like that she was not worried he would hate that, with her condition she need not worry. He had read that somewhere.As much as he wanted to let go of the issue, he also wanted to find out where the press had gotten the information, it couldn't have just been out there. He knew how much he had guarded this secret.Finding the truth was not going to be easy. He knew this, these journalists and media people can be very uptight, and getting answers from them would be extremely hard.But he was a determined man and was set to do anything within his po
In between all the chaos of trying to clear the air about the news that came out, Vincenzo also started to get calls from investors in his company saying they wanted to pull out.Everything was crumbling right in front of him.He could afford the investors pulling out at this moment. He had just invested all the company's money, including the ones the investors wanted to pull out. So whatever happened would have to come from him.He'd go bankrupt if that happened.He called the investigator he hired to find out the root of everything. He prayed to God that if it was Rex, he'd make him suffer for a long time.Ariana was the only one doing everything for him at that moment because everyone he had given tasks had turned up with bad news.She requested that she go in to head the meeting with the investors in hopes that she'd stop them from pulling out of the company. After all when they have their child, it would be his property, and she couldn't afford that slipping from him.After the
Rex felt bad that Ariana's feelings were hurt in the process, his plan had only been to hurt Vincenzo.But it was inevitable actually, Ariana had made him admit instead of taking things the way they were she had sought closure and hurt herself in the process.He knew Vincenzo would come for him once he knew the truth, he loved Ariana too much to not have any Justice for what he did, and he was well-prepared for anything.Being well aware of the influence Vincenzo had, Rex knew he couldn't do it alone, he required help, some sort of backup, someone to be there for him if things went South.He found a perfect partner in Marcus, their hate for Vincenzo had brought them together, and they intended to take him out of the way, certainly.When Rex heard the sirens just outside his house, he wasn't scared, he had backup, and he knew he wouldn't stay there for long.***“Trending on many social media platforms now is the contract paper that seems to belong to Mr. Vincenzo and his wife.”“The c
Ariana got up without a word and walked out of the house without looking back, she got what she wanted and her mission was done.She took off her heels immediately, she slammed the door behind her. Holding the tears back until she got into the waiting cab.“Go,” she said as she stepped in, slamming the door and making the driver jolt in his seat before turning to look at her.“I'm sorry” she apologized as she caught a glimpse of the look on his face.Without another word, he drove out of the premises.She let the tears flow, Rex had abused her. He probably didn't realize it, but he did, taking off her clothes and taking those illicit photos of her.Safe to say, he was and still is sickly obsessed with her. If he truly loved her, why did he chose Vera over her? Why did he hurt her or was she meant to be hurt by all the men she loves?Was it her fate? She looked out the window, watching as the street went by as they drove with her mind reeling with different thoughts. Wondering what V
Vincenzo woke up a happy man. Every day was good for him as long as he had her with him. Everything in the world seemed okay.The sky was sunny, the birds were chirping, and all was right.He got up from bed, but not without kissing her on her forehead and her protruding stomach.He was careful not to wake her up.Furthermore, he felt she needed more rest. Likewise, he wanted to avoid anything that would cause any complications to arise.He got up, showered, got dressed in a particular suit he had chosen for that day, and dashed on her perfume. He wanted to be reminded of her all day long.He went to check on her before he left, in case she had already woken up.Panic coarse through him as he didn't find her on the bed. He felt his heart starting to race.He calmed down when he called out her name, and he heard her voice from the bathroom. “Is everything alright?” She asked as she stepped out of the bathroom, confused as to why he looked so worried.“Everything's wonderful, darling"
