All Chapters of Trapped by the Ruthless Billionaire: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"I'm sorry miss but you've had too much. This hotel is under strict regulations," the bartender responded politely, while he wiped a couple of wet glasses with a napkin. The bar was closing because there weren't many patrons tonight. Weekdays weren't as booming as the weekends. "I...I'll pay, I…I can afford it," Jenna's vision was already blurring out, as she slurred. The bartender wasn't having it. He couldn't let her pass out in the bar by intoxication. This hotel was a top notch one controlled by the mafia kingpins but this bar was under strict regulations. "I'm sorry miss, it's late. You should go to your room now," he maintained the gentility in his voice, not wanting to upset a customer. "Okay," Jenna couldn't argue anymore. She was already tired, her body needed rest. She dropped the empty glass, stood up and struggled to balance her wobbly legs. 'This waiter is so unfeeling.' She needed more alcohol, despite not being a heavy drinker. She was still in her work clothes, givin

A week later Jenna had gotten some responses from her job applications but none of them was consoling. Two of the companies thought her previous work experience made her overqualified for what she applied for. However, they couldn't give her the position she deserved because there was no vacancy. She was getting frustrated by the whole thing. Kate was leaving for work and would return in two weeks. She left her house for Jenna with some cash and also Cathans' contact. She had already spoken to him and he confirmed a position available but it wouldn't wait forever because recruitment was ongoing.Jenna decided to give it a shot and gave him a call. Her CV was forwarded to HR and she received a call for an interview the next day, which she brilliantly passed. The company had accommodation arranged but since she wanted to remain in Kate's apartment, the allowance was given to her instead. Also, there were no weird clauses in her contract as speculated.Their wages were the best as exp

"You are very meticulous in your work. Keep it up," The old man complimented Jenna after reviewing her report. Jenna smiled but couldn't keep calm. Even with a compliment, it sounded like a reprimand because there was no smile on his face and his bodyguards made things worse with their presence. The office was already complex but their presence made it heavy. "I try my best sir, thank you." She responded politely. She couldn't help but notice the man's pupil from the distance, which looked so dark that it reminded her of someone. The thought of that dying man gave her shivers. His eyes were so scary and seemed so similar to that of the old man. "You can take your leave," he finally said. Jenna was relieved and walked out of the office. It wasn't as bad as she thought. For as long as she did her job well, she was sure to not face any unforeseen challenges. It was good that she took Kate's advice. She hadn't called Cathan since then and felt the need to call and thank him. The deputy

The next day when Jenna entered the elevator, disdainful gapes followed her. Her greetings and usual morning courtesies got no response. Even the deputy CEO and her team mates gave her the cold shoulder. She couldn't think of anything she must have done to deserve this till Kelly, the company gossip arrived. "Jenna, the new boss, was raging this morning. Why did you do it?" She asked in a worried tone. Jenna was even more perplexed. "Do what?" She asked with innocent eyes."Are you denying it?" Kelly asked, but politely. "Jenna, Mr Blade will see you in his office, don't keep him waiting," the deputy CEO said in a warning tone, interrupting their conversation. His usual warmth around her was all gone, which made her understand that something was wrong but Kelly wasn't ready to speak about it anymore. "You should go," Kelly urged her on. Jenna couldn't ask anymore, following the direction to Caspers' office with so much confusion. She still hasn't been able to ascertain what

Jenna woke with a startle. Checking the time, it was almost midday. She could feel her heartburn with fear. "I'm so sorry Cathan. I found it difficult to sleep before...." "Casper has limited patience, don't abuse it," Cathan spat before the call ended. Jenna was deflated. She didn't intend to oversleep. Next time, she would have to set her alarm. She had a quick shower and put on a simple office dress, rolled her hair up into a bun, securing it with a hair clip, slipped on her nerd glasses, then her less than two inches shoes. In less than ten minutes, she was panting in her office. She checked her handbag for the videotape to give Casper as proof when a knock was heard on the door. She jumped with both shock and fright when she saw Casper standing there with that emotionless mask. "Come with me, Miss Nova," the calmness in his voice scared her, recalling what Cathan had told her. The man was both attractive and dreadful. Somehow, she began to think of perfect revenge on Drak
