Chapter 10

"A job... I need a job to live," Luciana explained. "You of all people, should know I can't keep sitting at home all day."

"Figured you would say that, so I took it upon myself to make sure you have everything you need. We don't want you going down the tunnel of depression again," Aria revealed.

"You found one?" Luciana probed.

"Yes, Luci!" Aria exclaimed. "I may have pulled a few strings to get the information I needed, but it is up to you to secure the job."

"Oh, my goodness!" Luci screamed, her eyes twinkling like the stars in the sky.

"Because you are just coming out into the world again, I could have asked you to replace me in my current workplace and go for this big shot interview," Aria paused. She tried to assess Luci's expression before continuing. "But you need this change, and there is nowhere better than for you to apply to this company."

The beeping sound of the sleek black beauty as it automatically locked itself filled the silent driveway while Ariana walked towards the front porch. She delivers two quick raps on the door before twisting the doorknob.‘Anyone in the house,’ she called and within minutes the living room was filled with the staff.‘Benvenuta signorina Ariana,’ they all greeted her at once. ‘Buongiorno a tutti, dov'è la mia mamma?’ ‘Lei è in sala da pranzo,’ one staff answered. ‘Grazie.’ She gave her bag to one

'How was your night?''It was boring,' Ariana pouted, looking up at him with doe eyes.'You mean my mum is boring?'‘Oh my God, Giovanni, I didn't mean that I only meant it was boring without you beside me.’‘I know, I'm just pulling your leg,’ he intertwined their hands and pulled her into the company.‘I can't wait to finally have you as mine forever, with no mum or mother to hold you with them,’ Giovanni pouted, and she hit his shoulder playfully.‘I am already yours,' she told him, and he leaned down to claim her lip in a passionate kiss.The sound of giggling pulled them apart and Ariana blushed so hard as she saw the number of people watching her make out with her husband-to-be in the lobby.‘Do you

To think she is here right now seems like a dream.She pinched herself to be sure and the sting in her right cheek tells her this is no dream, this is happening.Recalling what Aria taught her, she schooled her face and rid it of any expression then she lifted her chin like someone who bathed in wealth on a daily basis before walking toward the front desk.‘Good morning,’ she greeted, making sure she didn't sound too excited or naive while also not sounding rude.‘Good morning, how can I be of service to you today?' The receptionist flashed her a smile and Luciana could tell she was faking it.That is something Luciana does daily, so it was easy for her to distinguish between a real smile and a fake one.

    Chapter 14 Luciana was getting tired of hearing the ladies fantasize about working for Salvatore and all the dirty things they wished they could do with him. Their incessant noise was starting to annoy the fuck out of her, and she was starting to sport a headache. What helped her situation was the fact that the hall had good air conditioning even though it was overcrowded. She had concluded that she would leave in the next 30 minutes if no one showed up to update them about the first phase of the interview. Only 20 people would be chosen, so she saw no reason why she had to sit with these dead brains when she was certain they wouldn’t even spare her CV a glance. ‘I will just have to apologize to Aria and tell her I have been disqualified,’ Luciana mumbled under her breath while trying to distract herself from the things going on around her with the game she was playing. Which didn’t seem to work since the women around her kept getting louder with each second. With a frustrated hu

Luciana eyed Emilia cautiously, she wanted to know why this woman addressed herself as her mother-in-law since she couldn’t recall being engaged to anyone before. Knowing she had no choice, Luciana moved toward the couch to sit down and listen to what Emilia had to say. ‘What do you mean you will soon be my mother-in-law?’ She asked as soon as her butt touched the soft cushion. ‘Ariana,’ Emilia called, and the brown-eyed woman moved forward. She gave Luciana a bronze folder, and with so much curiousness brimming in her, Luciana pulled the string holding it together and her posture suddenly turned stiff as she stared at her name which was printed boldly on the first page of the files in the folder. ‘I suppose you want an explanation as to

They wanted to be Salvatore's secretary so it came as a blow to them when they heard a candidate had been chosen already. The guard had to force them to leave, chasing them out of the company before they created a ruckus. Once the hall was cleared, all activities on the first floor went back to normal and everyone went back to their position. . Isabella paced to and fro in the small space of her office. She wasn't bothered by the fact that her office is basically just her desk, computer and six chairs seated against the wall opposite her desk in an open space that is like a lobby to Salvatore's office and anyone who walks in right now would find her lazing around. She kept thinking of ways to stop Emilia and Ariana from succeeding in the plan to replace her and also find a way to stay in Salvatore’s life as well.
