Dante Matthews:-
" Valentino, is the contract ready?" I asked my lawyer after entering the office of my company with an arrogant and proud attitude plastered on my face.
" Yes, Mr. Matthews. Everything is done right according to your conditions. I have added every single clause you have asked me to add." Valentino replied. I nod my head, sat down on my chair behind the desk then looked at him holding my hand forward " Show me the contract." I demanded.
" Yes, Mr. Matthews." he replied placing the contract papers in my hand bringing a smirk on my face. Because surely one way or another Gabriella is going down. She will pay hundred times for leaving me hanging on the altar. How dare she stood me up on our wedding when I loved her so much? When I was ready to give up everything for her? But not anymore because this time she will pay for it. I will take my revenge from her only then I will feel in peace.
" I am impressed by your work like always, Valentino. Good work." I tell him after reading the contract "You are not just my lawyer but my friend too who has got eyes and ears everywhere. Now, tell me when is dearest Gabriella joining as the CEO of Harrison Industries?" I asked.
" According to what my sources told me. I think she is starting from tomorrow because I am sure by now her lawyer must have filled her with everything." he replied " Can I know the reason for your hatred from Gabriella Harrison? Is it personal?"
" Of course, it is personal. I loved her and she left me hanging." I replied " You just need to know that much." I snapped " Thanks for your work. You can leave now." I ordered. Valentino nodded his head, patted on my back and left after wishing me a luck because I am about to start my revenge from tomorrow.
I looked at the picture of Gabriella on my desk and ran my palm on it after picking up the frame. After all these years why haven't I still forgotten about her? Why is she still in my mind? Why can't I push her out? Many will think that I have placed her picture on my desk because I love her but no, I have placed her picture on my desk because I hate her.
I hate her for what she did to me. I hate her for breaking my heart when I have her my everything, when I made so many sacrifices for her, when I left my family behind for her but what did she give me in return? Stood me up at the altar when I was looking forward to marry her with all my heart.
That day I couldn't wait to make her my wife but she ruined all of my dreams. Shattered them and turned me into a cold person I am. I still wake up every night thinking why did she do that to me? What did I do wrong? I have always been loyal to her and loved her unconditionally. Now, I live for my revenge only. Did she left me because I was poor? I wasn't to her standards? Because she was ashamed to introduced me to everyone as the love of her life?
Gabriella has always been rich and grew up with luxuries her father provided her with. Nicholas spoiled her in the worst way possible and turned her into a bitch and cold-hearted woman for others. I don't know why did she fall in love with me or agreed to marry me because I was out of her league?
I still don't understand many things. Sometimes I feel like I was a piece of bet for her but Gabriella never liked to bet or anything with her friends because she didn't need to prove anyone. Her attitude was enough to put people on their places then why? Why did she pretend to love me when I never did anything wrong with her?
" Miss. Matthews....Miss. Matthews," my assistant Ciara said waving her hand in front of my eyes bringing me out of my thoughts.
" Yes, Ciara?" I asked with a charming smile. She smiled back at me politely and placed my coffee on my desk along with my daily work schedule. I am cold to the person I don't know and whom I know very well but always polite with my employees because they are the one I am succeeding.
Without them my company is nothing. They respect me because I respect them. They know about my nature and know when I am cold with someone it is because that person has pissed me off. I want my employees to like me and share their new ideas with me in ease instead of living with fear.
" Mr. Matthews, are you alright? You seem zoned out. Are you feeling well?" she asked.
" I am fine, Ciara. Thanks for asking." I replied " Is there something you need to tell me?"
" Yes, like you asked me I have fixed your appointment with the CEO of Harrison Industries for tomorrow." she informs " Is there anything else you need me to do?" she asked.
"Yes, please make sure to send blue rose flowers to the new CEO of the company in the morning before my visit there." I ordered " That will be all, Ciara. You can leave."
" Ok, Mr. Matthews. And, by the way your meeting starts in twenty minutes so please have your coffee on time before it gets cold because you always tend to forget to drink it." she said and left. Ciara is a polite woman and very much married so I don't need to worry about her being obsessed with me or anything. I don't like women. I just like to fuck them whenever I want. I trusted one woman and she broke my heart making me hate all the women. I know it is wrong of me to do that because not everyone is same but it is not possible for me anymore. Gabriella messed up my mind. Ruined me in the worst way possible now it is her turn to go through the same thing I went through.
Gabriella Harrison:-" Miss. Harrison, the breakfast is served." my housekeeper informed after entering my room." Alright, Flora. I will be down." I replied while looking at myself in the mirror for my final appearance. I was heading to the office and taking over the position of CEO of my dad's company from today. I won't let what my father built with his blood and sweat crumble this easily. I will fix this.I will fix everything. I am the proud daughter of my father and even after his death I will make him proud of me. I have seen him struggle and work so hard for this company which is why I will save it at every cost. No matter what.I was dressed up in a white suite pant and wearing my diamond earring that my father gifted me four days ago on my birthday. He was all healthy and fine that day but then what happened all of a sudden that lead him to his death and caused him a heart attack when he never had one ever in his whole lifetime. Something feels off over here and I am going t
Gabriella Harrison:-" Good morning, Miss. Harrison." all of the employees stood up from the seats to greet me morning when I was passing by from there. I nodded at them in greeting and kept on walking towards my office with my assistant following me. It felt weird to walk inside like this because I only came here to the company in the past to meet my father only but today I am here to run it with no presence of my father.I reached my dad's office and looked at it with glassy eyes but maintained the strong and confident posture because there is no place for weak in the world and I can't show any of them my weakness. My guards opened the door for me and I entered and stopped in my tracks when my eyes landed on the blue roses bouquet placed on the desk. I know who sent this because he is making me realize of his presence on purpose." What game are you playing, Dante?" I murmured under my breath." Did I ask anyone to place flowers on my desk? I think so I didn't so throw them away." I
Gabriella Harrison:-I entered the conference room and saw the board members waiting for me. When they saw me they stood up and nodded their heads."Miss. Harrison." they said in unison." Gentlemen," I nodded back after reaching my head chair " Please have a seat."they all sit back on their places and the meeting begin." Miss. Harrison, I am sure by now you must have came to know how the company is sinking down right? It is about to go bankrupt. Why are you going to do about it?" one of the board member asked." Mr. Jacob, right?" I asked and looked at Silvia with a grin " Silvia, will you please do me the honor of presenting Mr. Jacob with the special gift I prepared for him?"" Gladly, Miss. Harrison." Silvia said with a smile and palced the manila envelope in front of him." Mr. Jacob, before you open that what were you planning to suggest me because it surely feels like to me you were planning to ask me to step down and let all of you bastards run my father's company right?" I
Dante Matthews:-I looked at the priceless expression of Gabriella in front of me while every loser board members enjoyed it because this she devil just put them in their places. Damn! I didn't know that she holds this perfect business mind. This is new for me. I am proud of her but at the same time I am not because if she was my woman like in the past then I would have been proud but now she is just my enemy. My biggest enemy alive." That is impossible.Follow me into my office. Right now!" she barked at me making me grin and shake my head but still I followed her while she walks forward with her guards giving me a perfect round view of her ass. Fuck! This woman has gotten hotter than before.She has gone all curvy and perfect from every right places and I can't help but get hard inside of my pants and my member to twitch. The way she was moving her body while walking was to die for. Out of billions of women in the world only this woman holds the power to make my body get out of cont
Gabriella Harrison:-I stood there frozen after hearing Dante ask me to become his wife. Is he fucking insane? Why does he still want me to become his wife when I stood him up the last time?" Are you out of your mind or are you that much desparate to marry me? Wasn't last time enough for oy uthat you want to go through that same disaster again?" I asked with a raised brow " And, what does this have to do with saving my father's company? And first of all how did you get to manage to get my father's shares? He will never sell them. Especially to you."" Yes, he didn't directly sell them to me but he did sell them to my friends who happens to help me out in bringing your father's empire down to break his ego and yours. You both think of yourself as the God of the business world but look around. You are nothing but standing in the position where your company's future depends on my hands." he tells me in a cold voice and darkened gaze in anger and grabbed me by my throat, pinned me agains
Dante Matthews:-" So, how did it go? Did you show her the contract?" Valentino asked entering my huge modern mansion and headed directly to the bar to pour himself a glass of scotch." I didn't show her the contract and let's just say the meeting was quite eventful. Do you know she has literally hand the flowers burnt by her assistant that I sent to her." I tell Valentino while taking the sip of my whiskey."Ooops! That much hatred, huh? If she hated you that much then why pretend to love you at first place." he asked " Why hate you somuch when you never did anything wrong?"" That's what I have been thinking for years. Why agree to agree to marry me at first place in the past when she never loved me? And, what is the reason for her hatred towards me?" I murmured lost in thoughts." Maybe, you both should talk it out. What if there is story behind all this and you guys both are being too stubborn and bringing your ego and pride between one another to discuss it like normal person?" V
Dante Matthews:-" Woah, what is happening over here and dude, you stink!" Valentino made fun of my state. I was oholding on to a very drunk Gabriella and bearing the smell of the vomiting at the same time." Sut up, douchebag and go inside or go home. Game night is over. Lasagna must be ready. You can take it out from the oven and help yourself." I snapped at him and begin to take Gabriella to my room." Wait. Is that the great Gabriella you were talking about?" Valentino asked wide eyed " Damn, she is hot but what is she doing here?"" Keep your eyes to yourself, fucker." I growled " Or get out fo my house."" Hmmm, you sure you hate her because the way you are beng possessive about her tells me you don't. What's the matter, Dante?" he asked." Don't you dare go there, Tino." I threatened while giving him a glare " Eat and get out of my house." with that said I scooped giggling Gabriella in my arms and took her into the bathroom of my master bedroom. I placed her down on the floor a
Gabriella Harrison:-I woke up with a pounding headache and let out a groan rubbnig the back of my head as I slowly opened my eyes and get down on the sitting position. When my eyes opened I looked around at my surrouding confused because I was in an unfamilair place. I looked down at the shurt and shorts I was wearing with a frown on my face? What happened last ngiht and where am I? Where are my clothes? I just remember getting drunk at the club and after that I don't remember anything at all. Did I end up having a one night stand with some random man after getting myself drunk into oblivion? I know I can't handle liquor and I barely drink but when I do I am all over the place which has brought me to this situation right now. But where the fuck am I and whose bed is this but this musky scent seems familiar to me on the bed. It's the scent Dante scarries with him."Oh my God! Did I spend the night at Dante's place? Am I in his place?" I murmured in shock with my eyes getting wide. No
Cameron Matthews:-"So, what have my son in such a sour mood that he doesn't even want to talk to his father?" my father asked after taking a seat beside me on the barstool of the club."I fucked up, dad, and now I don't know how to fix that." I answered honestly after taking a sip of my wine."Does this fucked up mess include Catherine by any chance because your sister seems really pissed at you."dad asked, already guessing the right. I sighed and nodded my head."Dad, I like Cameron. I really do, but what I doesn't like is that, she makes me lose control, she makes me weak, and powerless. That's what I don't like. I am the man who always like to stay in control. The man you raised me to be, but it feels like I am failing in being one.""Who said you are failing, son?" dad asked, pouring her glass of bourbon "You are born a successor. Look at your parents. Your mom and I both are successful, so it's obvious our children has to be successful too, and as for losing control. Tell me one
Catherine Morris:-I looked at him stunned, as my body shook with the need that was still unquenched. Cameron only grinned when he saw the look of annoyance on my face for not telling him. It set me to blushing with anger and shame but I did not dare show it to him since that would be the ultimate triumph for him. “Okay,” I replied arranging my posture and clutching the robe that was hanging at the corner. “Which business are we referring to?” He followed me carefully and looked me up and down when I just wrapped the robe tightly around my breast. “I am in need of model for a shoot today, one of my best models just called in sick and rescheduled, there are no other models available, and I figured you could do it. ” I raised an eyebrow. According to the story, the conversation was as follows: “You want me to model for you? After what just happened?” “Yes, Cat,”’ he said, becoming stern. “I require the services of a professional, one who can work under pressure and you are the best.
Catherine Morris:-I was in the middle of the shoot for the Victoria secret when my assistant came with a smirk on her face and by the look of her, I know she has came with some good news that I might like."Kate, some really big hotshot is here to see you since you won't receive his calls." she spokewith a grin. I chuckled shaking my head and asked the camera man to give me five minutes. One of the staff member came with the robe to cover my bikni clad body but I refused to put it on as I just got an idea in my mind."It's alright. I will be fine." I tell the staff member with a polite smile. She smiled back and left while I headed in my trailer van after asking my assistant to send the guest inside. I have just sat down on the couch when Cameron stepped inside, looking super hot in his designer three piece suit, that took my breath away. But as I looked at him. I can't help but smile to find him gasp as he looks at my body from head to toe, and gulped."Hey, Cam. What are you doing
Cameron Matthews:-"Where is my damn coffee?" I yelled in anger when I didn't see my coffee placed on my desk after I entered my office. My assistant knows very well that I need coffee first thing I come to the office and it really pisses me off when it's not here."I am sorry, Mr. Matthews, here it is." my assistant came running inside of the office with uneven breathing like she has ran a marathon. There is one thing I like about my assistant, she is the best and never late. She is always here on time which is why my coffee is placed on my desk on time, before I arrive, but today, that is not the case certainly."Where the hell were you, Brianna. You know I hate it when on of my employees is late, especially my assistant?" I growled snatching the cup of coffee from her hand and took a sip. As soon as it hit my tongue, I calmed down and took a deep breath "Sorry, just had a rough night and you know how I get when I don't get my coffee first thing in the morning when I come to the off
Caterina Morris:-"What is happening over here?" came my best friend's voice who stepped out of her room with sleepy eyes as she smudges on them. Her eyes widened when she saw me and her brother standing in a compromising position. Cameron was only in his boxers, standing so close to me with my fingers running down his chest, while I was wearing a slip on mini nighty dress without robe. She was about to say something when she heard her father's voice."Bella Mia, just stop. She is gone." Uncle Dante tried to control Aunt Gabriella. Ella watched her parents from the stairs, then at me with a raised brow."What did you do, Erin?" only she is the one who calls me Erin and I love it."I might have caught your brother bringing a hooker into his room and I might have not liked it, and I might have not knocked on your parents door and interuptted their sex by telling your mother that Cameron has brought a hooker in her home to fuck." when I finished the sentence, Ella was looking at me with a
Cameron Harrington Matthews:"Cameron Nicholas Harrington Matthews, bring your naked ass out of your bedroom right now." I heard my beautiful mother yell at me from outside of my door as I bang the stripper that I brought from the club and after hearing her right now, I gulped because it could be the last day of my life.No one can win from Gabriella Harrison Matthews. That's what my dad always says. I thought it was because he loves mom so much that he keeps saying that to make her happy but that's totally not the case, he says it because he means it. My mom can be pretty scary."Who is she? Is she your girlfriend, fiance or wife I should know about because I don't sleep with the man who are in a relationship and cheating on their woman." the hooker speaks from underneath me, making me roll my eyes. Great, even the hookers have got rules now."Eeeeww, that's my mother out there who is currently so pissed that I might die tonight." I replied pulling out of her in a hurry "You need to
Gabriella Harrison Matthews The sun started to color the evening sky with hues of pink, peach, and orange, and I felt an odd combination of gleeful anticipation and wistful sadness. It was the most meaningful day. Our little baby girl Ella was celebrating her 1-year milestone. As my gaze fell upon our little miracle, my heart overflowed with happiness, and I was eager for the party. “This is the perfect day Dante and I have planned for Ella,” I said as I looked around the balloons and streamers covered every inch of the living room while a huge “Happy 1-year-old birthday to Ella!” birthday banner hung on the wall behind the chairs where we would gather to sing to her. Currently, Dante was busy looking after our daughter who won’t stop laughing and running after the balloons on her tiny little feet. Unlike, other kids Ella started walking when she was only ten months old, and man, if it hasn’t been tiring since because she always manages to do something odd. She was dressed up in a
Dante Matthews"Dante Giovanni Matthews! Where the fuck are you?" I heard my wife scream out loud as she could on the other side of the phone. I would have almost gone deaf if I hadn't put some distance between the phone and my ear. She is due any day now, and cranky as hell. Don't ask me about her mood swings at all because if I do then I am afraid it will be hard to stop because the list is that long."Hello, my love. I love you so much, what can I get for you this time?" I asked, trying to be as gentle and lovey-dovey as I could because one wrong word and I would be dead today."What can you get me?! What can you get me?! And, don't you dare say that you love me because if you had loved me then you wouldn't have left me over here all alone when my water just broke and what can you bring? You can bring your sorry lazy ass own at the hospital because Sylvia and Carson are taking me to the fucking hospital because your daughter is being too impatient to enter the world by giving me a
Dante MatthewsAfter our wedding reception, we finally came to our hotel room, leaving Cameron with Valentino, Carson, and Sylvia for protection and to look after. We knew that these men would give their life to protect Cameron so we were not worried about it at all. Unfortunately, my brother couldn't make it to our wedding since he needed to be somewhere really important and I understand because being a mafia leader is not an easy task."How are you feeling, wife?" I asked my pregnant wife who looked tired after being on her feet for so long."Tired, but not for you. I just need to get this dress off me. It feels so tight now. My boobs hurt." she replied and complained because indeed she must be tried wearing this tight dress for hours when she is used to wearing only baggy and comfortable clothes in this condition. I placed her down on her feet gently and helped her in getting out of the dress."Ahhh! Feels so good. Finally, I can breathe freely." she let out a deep breath of relief
