All Chapters of Taming The Brutal CEO: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

GIANNA'S POV "Sir, how do you feel about becoming the next CEO of the company? It already is a known fact that you've helped it even without holding an official position but now, you'll be getting the title. How does it feel?" the reporter asked. The man who the question was directed to cleared his throat and a few of the female reporters around me died. Not actually died but yeah, you get it. "It's an honor for me to be able to lead the company and I assure both its employees and the masses that I will do my best to take the company to greater heights," he replied, his deep voice resonating through the hall. I snorted at his words and the same female reporters looked at me. "What?" I spat out, glaring at them. They instantly turned away and I relaxed into my seat. The company had gone through a lot to be able to get into this press conference and all these girls were thinking about was how to get this devil's digits. "Gigi, calm down.

Makes you less attractive; not that you were attractive in the first place though, don't get me wrong," I told her, grinning. Without waiting for a reply, I went on my way and reached Elder Jiang's office. "Sir, I'm here," I greeted, pushing open the door. I raised my head to look at me and the breath was knocked o

I took a deep breath and acted as if I would comply. When I felt his tension begin to ease, I ran. Before i could even go far, Ryder grabbed me by my arm and pulled me to his chest as he placed the mouth of the gun on my forehead. "This feels very familiar but there's a difference, Gianna," he said, looking coldly at me. I gulped as I waited for him to finish. "This time around, there's no running away. This time around, Gianna Hunter, you will not be escaping me," he completed and I sucked in a deep breath. I felt tingles all over and I rolled my eyes to get a glimpse at the gun pointed at my head.
