Sasha’s POVThe passersby instinctively cleared a path.All eyes turned towards me.I was stunned.Why was Valentino seeking me out now?Beside me, Priscilla was also momentarily speechless, sensing Valentino's gaze fixed on me.I recalled seeing news reports that mentioned Valentino helping me regain Rex Corp. It seemed those reports weren't baseless."Is he your man?" Priscilla whispered.I shook my head. The relationship between Valentino and me was nothing like that of a husband and wife. It was more like the relationship between Priscilla and Maria—where she was taken care of financially, and I received assistance and mentorship from him.In essence, it wasn't all that different.The commotion around us erupted into a chorus of exclamations."Wow, is that Valentino's girlfriend?""She's stunning!""Isn't that Sasha? I remember a magazine report about her and Valentino's ambiguous relationship. They said Valentino helped her reclaim her company.""Are Sasha and Valentino more than

Sasha’s POVRegardless of whether Valentino ate them or not, I dug in. I was genuinely hungry after a long day of class and an evening without dinner. It was late now, and this meal felt like supper. Instant noodles was the most convenient and delicious food in the world.Valentino hesitated for a while as he saw me eating. His stomach growled audibly, clearly betraying his hunger.After a few minutes of thinking, he sat down and took a bite. Observing my satisfied expression, he refrained from requesting anything else.His initial distaste softened as he continued eating.The taste wasn't as bad as he'd expected.I sipped some hot water to clear her palate, then looked up at Valentino. "I guess the taste isn't as bad as you thought, right? It's quite delicious. Eat up while it's still hot."With that, I resumed devouring the noodles, not bothered about looking porsh or acting like a big girl. I could feel myself sweating a bit from the heat.After I finished eating I used a tissue t

Sasha's POVI tried to close my eyes, pretending not to hear anything, pretending to be asleep.It was so embarrassing. We weren't a couple, not even dating. Just a physical relationship, yet here I was, sharing a bed with Valentino without understanding why. Did I accidentally attract him today, like putting honey on myself?"Come here," his voice called again, making me shiver.In the darkness, I continued to feign sleep, hoping he'd leave me alone."You're asleep? Can you sleep every second?" His voice dripped with irony.I froze.Suddenly, his large hand pulled me towards him, and I found myself nestled against Valentino's warm chest. His grip was firm, holding me close, making me feel uneasy all over.But then, he used me as a pillow, his arms and legs wrapped around me, until his breathing evened out.I dared not move. Trying to shift away only made him hold me tighter as if warning me not to escape.The position was uncomfortable, and eventually, exhaustion took over, and I fel

Sasha's POV"Jared, you're a one-of-a-kind find. If I weren't your boss, I'd be trying to poach you for myself," I teased.Jared chuckled, the sound warm and familiar.He'd been Valentino's right hand for years, and everyone knew his loyalty was unshakeable. Headhunters circled him like sharks, offering better deals and brighter futures, but Jared remained steadfast. It wasn't just loyalty that kept him at Valentino's side, though. There was a spark in his eyes when he talked about the company, a passion that sometimes flared into a kind of controlled frenzy.We left the office together, heading for my place. Jared was there to meet the new trainer who'd be whipping me into shape.A black SUV pulled up as we arrived, and a tall, broad-shouldered man emerged. Victor. He radiated a rugged masculinity, his athletic build straining against his comfortable workout gear. There was a no-nonsense air about him, a directness in his gaze that I found instantly appealing.After introductions and

Sasha’s POVI reviewed the information about the new candidate, Kim, in the meeting room.She was in her early twenties and had some relevant work experience, although not specifically as a secretary or assistant. Kim had a professional appearance and seemed capable, though perhaps not as polished as Jared. With a bit of adjustment and training, she could potentially fit well into the role.Looking up at Kim, I questioned her directly, "Why did you choose to work as an assistant when you have no prior experience in this role?""I may lack direct experience, but I believe I can excel," Kim replied confidently. She explained that she saw RexCorp as a place where she could grow and thrive, despite her lack of previous experience as an assistant.Her answer was satisfactory and heartfelt. Out of all the candidates I've seen Kim appears to be the fit, for what I need.I made the decision to hire Kim away."Before I officially confirm your position I want to be clear that working as my assi

Valentino’s POVI came straight to my home after leaving the company but she didn't show up, leaving me waiting outside in the darkening sky, growing more and more irritated.I tried calling Sasha, but her phone was turned off, frustrating my attempts to reach her.After a while, I called Jared directly, demanding, "Where is Sasha?"His response came cautiously, "Boss, I don't know where Sasha is.""I need to know. You have five minutes," I replied coldly before hanging up.Frustrated and worried, I continued trying to reach Sasha to no avail. Then it hit me—I could contact Emilia, Sasha's close friend.Not knowing what to do, I called Emilia. "Hello, Emilia, do you know where Sasha is now?" I asked anxiously."Of course, I know where Sasha is. She's with me. What's going on? Why didn't you just call her?" Emilia responded with hostility."Where are you right now?" I pressed."I'm at home, of course!" Emilia snapped, clearly annoyed. "What's going on with her?"Emilia hung up on me. M

Sasha's POVCharly screamed like a pig. The pain from my bite made him cry out.His interest in me vanished instantly."Let go of me! If you bite me again, I'll kill you. Don't think I won't dare. No one here will know!" He threatened loudly.Where's my resolve? All the tough training I've gone through has prepared me for this moment.From Jared, Valentino, and Victor, I've learned the meaning of "ruthless."I bit Charly hard, nearly tearing the flesh. Relief washed over me. Blood stained my lips as I stared at Charly with icy resolve as if I could devour him whole.My head still spins, but the metallic tang of blood sharpens my senses.I tried to muster strength. I knew no one would come up to the third floor. If I couldn't hold out, Charly would take me!But I refuse!I despise the man in front of me."Get away from me!" I commanded with cold authority, my voice cutting through the tension."Go away? After biting me like that, you want me to leave? This arm is mine tonight. I'm goin

Sasha's POVAs soon as I stepped into the company, I noticed many people giving me strange looks. Normally, I'm confident in myself, so it's rare for me to be the subject of such scrutiny. But today, there was an uneasy atmosphere that I couldn't quite place.People around me were avoiding eye contact and whispering.Taking a dedicated elevator, I headed upstairs. Almost immediately, I spotted Kim, my new assistant, waiting for me."Come with me," I instructed Kim after a quick glance.Kim nodded and followed me into the president's office.Seated behind my desk, I turned to Kim. "I forgot to inform you earlier. I won't be at home today. That's your desk over there. You'll be working from that cubicle and on call."After finishing, I looked up at Kim again. "Have you heard what people in the company are saying? You arrived earlier than I did. You might have overheard something."Kim nodded hesitantly. "There's a rumor going around that you've been favored by Valentino from DragonCorp.

Sasha’s POVThat woman was fired that very day and left RexCorp immediately.I made sure it served as a warning to others. Because of that gossip girl, no one in the company dared to insinuate that I was being kept by Valentino anymore, and gossip about me ceased entirely.My methods had become clear to everyone.In the restaurant, standing before nearly all the company's employees gathered for a meal, I spoke plainly, "You can speculate all you want about who I associate with and how I secure projects, but while you can eat anything here, spreading baseless rumors is not tolerated. I do not want a particular approach; what is important is outcomes."When it was my turn to speak I told Kim that she should release the gossip girl’s phone call video online.I also captured a video at the same time, observing the impact it had as it was being launched.After the leaked video was posted onNo one dared to associate with her again.Word of my decisive actions spread rapidly throughout the

Sasha’s POV"Sasha!" A cheerful voice interrupted us. I turned to see Priscilla approaching with Gabriel."Priscilla?" I greeted her warmly, recognizing her from our previous encounters. I realized then that Gabriel must be the man she had mentioned before, the one who cared for her."Do you two know each other?" Gabriel inquired, curious about our connection."Yes, we've met," I replied, acknowledging our acquaintance."Sasha, you look stunning tonight," Priscilla complimented with a smile. "Let's catch up over there."With that, she led me away from Gabriel, taking me to a quieter corner of the club.As we conversed, Priscilla touched on the rumors about me and Valentino. She didn't mock or belittle me; instead, she spoke highly of my discernment and abilities."If you're looking for a benefactor, someone like Valentino at the pinnacle of society is the one to seek out. I envy you," Priscilla sighed wistfully.I listened thoughtfully, knowing all too well the complexities of my rela
