All Chapters of Tortured by the Devil CEO: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

ERIKAThe voice of the man was too familiar to be mistaken. Erika could hear her heart race too fast, she couldn't believe it."Just wait and watch, Mr. Sterling. Now that I'm here, I'll take all that you own and run it like its mine," Nigel said, his real intentions seeping out of every word he said. But his words definitely felt like reassurance to the man sitting right across Nigel, unaware that his daughter was kept hidden right in front of him.Erika knew that if only she could talk to her father, Matthew Sterling, properly for once, he would understand her and take her back. She was his daughter after all, he had to forgive her for whatever she did."Oh son, I'm so happy I listened to you when I made my decision. Thanks for making me understand that my vile daughter was good for nothing. If I handed the responsibility to her, she'd have destroyed the legacy I built," Matthew Sterling said, no hint of guilt or regret in his voice. Erika watched Nigel smirk, knowing she could hear

ERIKA"You'll stay here from now on," he ordered, strict with his decision just like the eye he was giving her, "In my bedroom."That was enough to shake her world, disorient her brain for a long time till she was hit with a million questions, the answers to which she couldn't fine even if she looked hard into his eyes. He wore the kind of expression like he was forced to make this decision and like it was all her fault.But Erika knew her fate was in his hands, then why didn't he change it? Why did he choose to keep blaming her even though he could've avoided it?"I won't be here and neither will I let you do this!" She let out, the confusion turning into anger. "Bold of you to say that while being cuffed on my bed," he smirked as she tried to rattle the cuffs or slip her hand out but it was all in vain. She glared back at his smiling face and it was just infuriating. "We'll see if you can give me the look after you spend the whole night like this.""Why?" She asked when Nigel was s

ERIKAShe took a little bit of chocolate on her finger and smeared it on his cheek. Then, all at once, she leaned in and kissed it off his cheek. It happened so fast that she didn't even have enough time to process it. She only wanted to disgust them and what could be more disgusting than open PDA. That's what she went for.Nigel froze when he realised and not in the nicest ways, in a more unpredictable way that was scarier. Mr. and Mrs. Rossi's smiles faded. Erika had done the damage."You're just so sweet, I couldn't resist," Erika said, giggling, no way to hide the fear in her voice. That's when Nigel's hand that was cuffed with Erika's, slipped into her hand. His locked hand grabbed her locked hand and he squeezed it till she winced and he smiled at her pleasingly. He wanted to make her stop immediately but she was gone too far to stop. He knew he had to make up for it so he turned to the Rossi's to diffuse their confusion."She's just trying to get this meeting over as soon as po

ERIKAHer eyes opened to the bright sun pooling in from the window. She stretched a little and sat up, looking around to see she was alone in that room. Erika took a deep breath and freshened up, preparing herself already to be locked up in that room until afternoon when she would actually slip out and meet Metin.She was just about to change when she noticed a note set on the bedside table and she picked it up."Go back to the room you used to live in, you can't enter my bedroom anymore. You'll continue working as a servant," the note said and it was clearly written by Nigel. Even though that was for the best but she was confused. What could've happened last night after she slept that had brought a complete 180 in his decision? Why would he send her away out of nowhere?But this made Erika's job easier, she wouldn't have to sneak out anymore. A little enthusiastically, she put on her uniform and left the room once and for all, leaving to start her shift. She ran and finally reached t

ERIKA"They're not looking at you because they know who you are," he said, making Erika finally look into his reassuring eyes. But her breath of relief instantly got caught as he completed his sentence. "They're all looking because you look gorgeous."She kept looking at him like the voices around her was drowning out. She opened her mouth but nothing came out and he didn't wait for it. He turned away from her and started walking away, further into the party. This was the third time she was caught off guard like that, to think that he had come up with a compliment for her was off putting itself. She didn't know why but it felt like the calm before the wind.Erika still tried to keep her head low as she followed both of them around. She actually knew some of the people there, even acquaintances. She couldn't even imagine how scandalous it would be if she accidentally took off her mask, it would be unbelievable.Nigel was actually social in parties because he seemed to attract all the at
