Episode 2

She was dragged off before I could make the sigh of relief, I felt like a big burden was gone...how did she even got herself into this company?

She dared to hold my legs, like seriously...I may have pitied her if she walked away without those annoying cry..

The most people I detest are those with weak emotion, I had grew up in a surrounding where you got to be strong to stand above others, right from kids, I received the hard training from my dad, i was his only child so he wanted me to be very strong so I can control his empire even when I'm a girl...

My past isn't a pleasant one, I don't feel like brooding over it, those years when my cries had no effect!!

Crying and shedding tears was made to seek help and mercy but dad taught me a different thing..

When you cry, you become weak, people look down on you, their fear or respect for you is washed away..

I took a deep sigh before walking away to meet Adrian, Xavier's son, his father is also a very close friend to my dad and my regular buyer..

Finally, I got to the guest room, there was a young man in suit, he had a dark glasses and I must confess he looked damn rich, three guards were standing behind the couch he sat all armed..

My eyes went to the stone diamond wrist watch he wore followed by the golden ring around his pinky finger

I can't help smiling, I'm getting a new customer!! 

Just immediately I walked in, he raised his gaze to me and kept staring, his countenance was a surprise one...

"Good day Sir, nice meeting you.." I smiled and held out my palm for a handshake, he pulled off his glasses with his mouth going agape..

"You are....welcome..." He stuttered and shook my palm without shifting his gaze..

I couldn't even understand his stares, it was like he was enchanted by something..

"Are you the Ria I had been hearing of?" he asked still holding my palm, his brow furrowed.

"My name is Ria, the CEO and owner of this company, your dad told me about you..." I said trying to wriggle off my palm gently but it seem he wasn't ready to release..

"I'm stunned..you look so hot and sexy..." he paused and tried touching my cheek but couldn't as I pushed him away instantly...

       Adrian's POV..

She pushed me and I almost fell on my butt but one of my security men caught hold of me...

My eyes widened in shock, first was her power to push me that hard, second was her expression right now..it was too stern that I was quite afraid she would eat me.

"Adrian, I'm sorry, have a seat let's get down to business!" she stated grimly and took a seat, all the smiles were gone and replaced with a stony one..

"Ria...why did you push me that way??.." I asked and she shrugged.

"isn't there any other thing you hear about me??..i don't take those shit!!..if you aren't here for business, I would love to see you off!!" she bellowed standing up immediately..

"Are you this way??..well, it even makes you more beautiful, I just came down to this country to open a new branch and also get to meet the lady that caught my heart..." I teased with a wide smile which wasn't returned..

Her frown even went deeper, 

"I'm not here for play!!..i met you in person as a respect to your dad, guess you are the annoying type...!" she snorted leaving me surprised..

Even when I had heard some rumour of her cold heart and strictness, I thought it was a joke..

"Ria..stop being too harsh, dad wants me to come closer to you and get the essence of business, the truth is that I ended up falling for everything about you, Ria I lo..v.e.." My voice hitched as I saw her walked away without listening to me..

I quickly grabbed her hand but got the greatest shock of my life..

She slapped me so hardly across my cheek..

"Never you hold my hand!!..get the f**k out of here when you are done being silly!!" she spited as I held my cheek in shock..

"How could you???" I asked with anger..

"Don't mention the word love to me or I would treat you like a trash!!" She warned and banged the door to my face..

My eyes fluttered in shock, the guards stared at me waiting for my order, they seem to be surprise seeing I did nothing..

My name is Adrian the only son of Xavier, My dad owns one of the largest men's wear boutique, being his son made me a millionaire, I had finally decided to open mine, 

Dad had told me about Ria who he admires so much and wanted me to get her heart, at first, I was against it because I'm a playboy, I wasn't ready to have a single girlfriend...

I plays with women's heart, being a cute rich guy with a sweet tongue, women wouldn't stop falling for my seduction, it all ends on my bed..

Dad told me of Ria and showed me her pics, that really caught me, I mean her beauty and power which she got at her age, she got one of the most popular wine, her company produces it...

I was really struck by everything about her and now I badly needs her..

First time meeting her, I got a slap...

Never believe she won't even fall for my cuteness..

"Why did you let her go scot free??" one of my guard asked..

I smiled and touched my cheek softly..

"I am loving her..." I smirked and walked out..

I must get her!!

She isn't different from other ladies who had fallen for me!!

You can't tell how mesmerised I became when she walked in, I sensed the aura, she looked so perfect, the type all men badly wants..

Heard she got no boyfriend or lover, she hadn't been in a relationship before, 

I couldn't help smirking as I thought of the fact that she may be a virgin, if I can only get her heart...

I'm a business tycoon like her, that would really be my stand in getting close to her...

Whatever it cost I must get her heart, she don't seem interested at all but I still can't and won't get her off my mind, I just love her type!

Gently, I pat my cheek where she slapped and smiled, I just recalled how soft and tender her palm was...
