Semua Bab The Billionaire’s Revenge Quest: Bab 21 - Bab 30

I am engrossed by work, sucked into the vortex of emails and projects. I’ve decided to shove myself into my work today mostly to forget about all the anger building inside of me. I’m not just upset about Tamara and her stupid boyfriend but also Laura, she’s upsetting me but that’s okay because I’ve taken care of the situation already. Jamil tried to convince me not to fire Zoran but as usual, I didn’t listen to him, I listened to myself and I did what I had to do whether it was good or not.Typing away on my computer, and sorting through piles of data, I felt a sense of control slowly returning, and my relief began to rise like a balloon. Just as I was starting to regain my focus, everything came crashing down when Laura bounced into my office without even bothering to knock.My brows furrowed in frustration as I looked at her, incredulous at her audacity. "You messed up!" she growled, her voice sharp and accusatory."What happened to knocking on my door and waiting for a response be

~ LAURA’S POVA stressful day at work is all I need to get my mood ruined and my brain tired. I can’t even begin to talk about how much Theo annoys me and how much I hate working with him. Theo has changed, he wasn’t the way he used to me. The Theo I know is way better, he was kinder, nicer, and even more loving but now he’s just like a monster with no feelings. He speaks in a tone he never does and the way he acts- his temper is just so scary as if he swallowed a pill of darkness. I just don’t like this version of him but I can’t do anything about it than stand up for myself and try my best to be confident enough to speak back to him.At work, I got a call from Ariana’s teacher letting me know that she was sick. It was really tough because I wanted to be there for her, but unfortunately, I couldn’t do much. I would have left work immediately to go to her, but with Theo’s massive anger issues, I knew that wasn’t possible. Instead of being able to comfort her in person, all I could off

I yawned, taking a sip of coffee as I continued to work on my laptop, eager to finish the project Theo sent me. I still can’t believe he called me last night, expecting me to wrap this up before morning and somehow get to work on time—no delays. Honestly, this is one of the reasons I dislike working with Theo; he never considers my situation. But, oh well, the money is good, and I can’t deny that I need it for me and my daughter, so I just have to deal with everything he brings to my table. As I typed on the laptop, I sorted through the papers, trying to gather enough information. The papers are eight hundred pages and I have to go through all of them but given the short period of time I was given, reading them all seemed impossible, so I skimmed through them making sure to catch the key points. If I missed something important, the whole project would be pointless—those aren’t my words, but Theo’s. I worked non-stop for hours, focused on getting it right. I didn’t even notice when

The meeting wrapped up, and as Theo strode out of the boardroom and into his office, I marched right up to him, my frustration boiling over. "What is wrong with you!" I snapped, my voice low but fierce."Don’t you dare raise your voice in my office," he shot back, his tone icy and commanding."I don’t want to raise my voice, but you’re leaving me no choice," I retorted, feeling the tension crackling in the air.He glanced at me, confusion flickering in his eyes as he continued toward his desk, his demeanor annoyingly calm. I stepped closer, my heart racing, pressing on, "You took all the credit for something I did.""So?" he shrugged, feigning indifference, as if my words didn’t matter at all."Really?" I challenged, disbelief creeping into my voice. "That’s what you’re going with?" I scoffed, and he remained silent, staring at me as if trying to piece together my frustration. I pushed harder, my voice rising slightly, "You don’t get it, do you? I stayed up all night working on this p

I left the canteen immediately, feeling overwhelmed by the fact that they were all gossiping about me. The thought of a whole group of girls tearing me apart was unbearable, and I just couldn’t handle it. As I made my way back to the office, I began to realize it wasn’t just them; nearly all the workers were whispering about my skirt and how much of a turn-off I was. With every step I took, I could hear laughter and see people pointing, and it felt like the entire room was focused on me, mocking me. I was so consumed by embarrassment that I didn’t even notice when my coffee and bagel slipped from my hands and fell to the ground. I rushed toward the elevator, pressing the button frantically. When the doors finally opened, I was met by two men who had smirks on their faces. But as they looked at me, they burst into laughter, and I felt tears welling up in my eyes. I quickly turned away, walking as fast as I could to the restroom, where I finally found a moment to be alone and collect m
