Chapter 31Ria's POV What I expected from him was a quick response but he didn't say a word, rather, he kept staring at me like I was a piece for auction. “I asked a question.” I muttered, my voice barely above a whisper this time around.If only he hadn't left, I doubt if Miguel would be able to create a scene. “Dress up.” He said and immediately, I snapped my head in his direction. “Dress up?” I repeated his words in a question-like manner as I kept staring at him like he was an alien. All I wanted was a response from him but he changed the conversation, asking me to dress up. Glaring at him with my hands across my chest, I didn't say a word to him but my actions were enough to tell him I was defiant. “You should do as I have said instead of acting up.” He smacked his lips as he plopped on the couch, crossing his legs. “Why should I dress up? It's not as if I have anywhere to be at.” I cast the wall clock a quick glance before returning my attention to him. “You have to giv

Outing

Chapter 32Luca's POVThe look on her face after my response was neutral but I was certain that a million thoughts were swirling through her head. Walking past her, I quickly made my way into the house only to step out a few minutes later to meet her staring into space. “Is there a problem?” My voice must have started her because she had swirled around with knotted brows. “I'm sorry.” I quickly apologized and when she did say anything after this, I cleared my throat to get her attention again, “Come with me, I will show you to your room.” “Yeah!” She nodded, hurrying into the building. After showing her to her room, I took my leave only to find myself standing behind my window, staring at the city which was now covered in darkness with my hands tucked inside my pockets. Though I didn't show, I felt bad that she had used me to get over Miguel. Pushing the thought aside, I allowed my gaze to roam around for a while until I became sleepy and then retired to bed. The next morning,

Beep

Chapter 33Ria’s POVNodding to the other end of the pack, I said, “There is a cool spot over there. We should hurry before it gets filled up.” While we made our way there, Luca passed side-talks that made me laugh out loud. Before now, I had always considered him to be cold hearted but it turned out that was the part he had decided to show me. Right from the arcade, his laughter warmed my heart, making me want to spend more time with him. When we got to the foot of the pine tree where I had chosen, my phone beeped in my pockets. Curious to find out the content of the message, I pulled out my phone, “Please excuse me.” I said, eliciting a nod from Luca who was looking around. I know where your mom is! If you want to see her, come to the address I will send in ten minutes. — This was the content of the message. Excited, a smile spread across my lips as I fist pumped the air to show my excitement.“It seems someone just won a lottery.” Luca commented. “No! This is more than a lo

TWO WEEKS!

Ria's POV It had been two weeks now since I started living with Luca and I must confess, it wasn't a bad decision after all. Unlike before when we were always at loggerheads, that wasn't the case anymore as I had understood him fully now. The anonymous person that kept trying to get my attention was not relentless and even though I managed to ignore him, in my leisure time, I was tempted to visit the address. “I’m heading out, I will be back before midnight.” Luca said from the foot of the stairs. At the moment, I was in the dining room, scrolling through my laptop in front of me. “Yeah!” The moment he banged the door shut, I fell back on my seat and then let out a low sigh which was followed by my beeping phone. Thinking it was the anonymous person, I refused to pick the call but the caller was persistent. In anger, I grabbed my phone off the table only to discover it was Priscilla on the line.Darting my eyes around, I muttered, “What does she want from me?” With my teeth

Drunk

Chapter 35Ria's POV.At this point, I realize I was the foolish one. I should have just told her that there was nothing between Luca and I instead of me confirming her suspicion. I guess I would have to give it a try now even though I wasn't sure if it was going to work or not.I took the papers which she had dropped in the desk and then tore it into pieces. Her mouth were wide opened while she let out a soft smirk."Do you think I am a fool? You want me to sign these based on our speculations? You really think you are going to take what belongs to me? The properties which my father left for me?"I wondered what made her think I couldn't claim what belonged to my Father."I knew you have been eyeing those properties ever since you stepped into that house." She said in disgust, wrinkling her nose. Her hands went to her waist as she then moved closer to me.I leaned forward slightly while I maintained a steady breath showing that I wasn't afraid of her."Woah! You have really grown som

Drunk II

Chapter 36Ria's POV"You guys should leave me alone, I am too drunk for all of these." I mentioned, while I tried to stand up."Ria." I heard that voice once again. I loved it whenever he always came to me when I was in trouble. The guys who were at my front ran off immediately.Who knew they were going to be scared of just one man? Or did they know him somewhere before? "Yes." I looked behind me, and there he was standing. His phone right in his hands, with his fingers clutched tightly as if the phone was going to call off his hands. I tried standing up but I staggered as I fell again, my butt hitting the floor hardly while I let out a soft wince. "You just stood there and watch me." I muttered looking at his face, even though it was getting blurry."Are you angry?" I questioned, pointing my fingers right at him but he didn't bulge. I tried standing up again, hoping that he was going to assist me but I hit my butt right on the floor again. What in the hell was this kind of pain?

Manager

Chapter 37.Luca's POV.I wished she realized how much she was hurting me with those words. I thought I was tripping at first when she said she was falling for me, but I didn't realize she wasn't sure about it yet.She was probably saying gibberish too because she was drunk. "You should sleep." I mentioned to her before she was finally able to let go off her.I wanted to know what and who made her like this. Furthermore, I just left her in the dining and within a few minutes she was outside already. My hand reached for my pocket, bringing out my phone while I dialed one of the security man who I was affiliated with."Can you please check the security cameras around the restaurant and let me know who Ria met with?" I texted him and then mentioned the name of the restaurant afterward.He knew Ria and he usually help me with a few personal stuffs which had been helpful so far. I took a last glance at her and she was fast asleep already.I walked back up to her as I then used the duvet t

Serious Issues.

Chapter 38Ria's POV.I climbed up the stage with my eyes fixed on him and not on the crowd. I wasn't expecting this, I never expected this to happen.I thought the announcement he was going to make will be something else, or about someone else. I never imagined it was going to be me.He left the front of the standing microphone, leaving me to say something. What in the hell do you want me to tell your employees?I just have little experience when it comes to cosmetics. How must did he trust me for him to put me in that kind of level? Or was he returning back a favor? I haven't been useful to him for the past few days."Uhm, I'm really speechless guys." I started talking. Oh my! How could I start on a wrong note this way? My first statement was followed by a laugh laughter from the crowd and it seemed like they were pretty okay with it.It really wasn't that deep."This is really shocking for me just as the way you all are in shock." I continued talking."My regards goes to the CEO fo

Apartment?

Chapter 39Ria's POV.I sat next to Miguel since that was the only empty seat. "I guess you are showing your true colors now." Miguel muttered, moving closer to me so I could hear what he just said.True colors? What did he mean by that? Sometimes, I wonder how he got to this stage with the level of intelligence he had.This was the first time I would be seeing him after that incident. I didn't have enough time to scold him. "Just shut the fuck up." I whispered to him.What made him think he could talk to me after that incident?"What do you think you are doing, Luca? Have you forgotten you have to meet us before making any important decisions, just like the one you did this morning? One of the men in the room started first."The position has been empty for a while, and I found the right person who was perfect for the job. Do I have to discuss it with you?" He defended. Everyone knew he was in the wrong here, but he was still trying to defend me and himself."That's not the point.

New Office.

Chapter 40Ria's POV.I watched as he was speechless while his eyes bore into mine."I guess you know the truth already." He mentioned while his feet tapped on the floor. How could he keep something like that from me? I scoffed while I tried to connect the dots. The fact that the house was so cheap and it was very close to his. I thought everything was a coincidence, but it turned out he had planned this beforehand."You are really unbelievable." My arms crossed each other, "Why would you do something like that?" "I just wanted to help you." He replied to me; the elevator bell dings while it opened, revealing some of the workers who were waiting for the elevator. We both stepped out."It's better if we don't get to discuss it anymore." He replied to me while I walked behind him."You will stop being my personal assistant as of today." He reminded me immediately we stepped into his office."I will be choosing someone who can assist you with everything, and from there we could get to
