Cause Of My Euphoria

Chapter 1

Vincenzo stood under the warm water. He was starting to relax. Then his phone rang. He sighed and turned off the water. He stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around his waist. He walked over to the counter and picked up his phone.

"Giovanni," he answered.

"Vincenzo, it's time we discussed your future," his grandfather said.

Vincenzo's eyes narrowed. "What about my future?"

"You need to find a wife, Vincenzo," his grandfather said. "Someone who can give you an heir. It's time for you to settle down."

Vincenzo's jaw clenched. "I don't need a wife. I can handle the family business on my own."

Giovanni sighed. "Vincenzo, you promised me you would come to my 71st birthday party with your future wife."

Vincenzo's eyes flashed with annoyance. "I didn't promise you that. And even if I did, I'm not a child who can be forced into marriage."

As he argued with his grandfather, a face flashed in his mind - Camilla, his secretary. He quickly pushed the thought aside, remembering she was married.

Giovanni's voice turned cold. "Fine, Vincenzo. But know this: if you don't bring a wife to my birthday party, there will be consequences."

Vincenzo's grip on the phone tightened. "I'm not afraid of your consequences."

The call ended.

*****

ONE WEEK AFTER.

"And the deal is sealed"Jones said after Vincenzo signed on the last part of the file. They both stood and shoke hands.

"I hope for a better future with this deal"Vincenzo replied.

"And better future we shall see" Jones replied and Vincenzo hummed a reply. Jones glanced over Vincenzo shoulder to see Camilla standing behind him, she looks bothered.

"Ms. Morris" Jones called snapping her out of her thoughts, she faked a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

"That's all of it, see you later"Vincenzo said without waiting for Jones reply. He walked out of the boardroom with Camilla walking behind him.

"Secretary Morris"he called but got no reply. "Secretary Morris"still nothing. He turned to face her, only to find her and lost in thought. Camilla bumped into him, and immediately was snapped out of her thoughts.

"B..b.. Boss"she stuttered, "you look lost, what's bothering you?"he asked, his tone laced with a hint of worriedness. Camilla raised an eyebrow, she wasn't familiar with this caring side of Vincenzo. He is usually strict and cold.

"I..I.. I'm ok Boss"she replied.

"You don't look fine"he injected and countiuned with his walk. "What's next on my schedule?"he questioned changing the topic.

"Hmm"Camilla hummed, and switch on her iPad while walking behind him. "Dinner with lady Francesa, by 7pm outside of town at dolla hotel"she read.

"That is two hours from now, you can rest for does two hours before we leave for dinner"he said and walk into his office, slamming the door at her face.

Camilla stood in utterly shock, she couldn't utter a word.

Her boss, Vincenzo leorando Torricelli, giving her a break? This is so unusual.

She sighed and immediately remembered her discussion with her neighbor, she walk to the assistant department and the employees inside welcomed her with a warm smile.

"Hmm, can I ask? Where is Sophia?"she asked.

"She left sometime ago, she said it was urgent and couldn't ignore it"the head of the department, Jacob answered.

"Oh, what time actually?" She questioned.

"About two hours ago,"Jacob replied and she nod. "Any problem?"he asked. "No everything is fine, I just wanted to check on her"Camilla replied and walk out of the department into her office. 

Her panick raising. If the photo her neighbor, Ms. Jenkins sent her was true she would kill Sophia herself.

For the past few weeks, she hasn't been available at home. She rarely see her husband, Ryder. They mostly communicate on phone since she as the bigger and well paying job and couldn't afford to lose it, she had to be at her boss's service twenty four seven.

Her neighbor Ms. Jenkins, as been reporting to her about seeing Ryder with another woman. She just ignored Ms. Jenkins since she was a old lady and she never liked Ryder. But when Ms. Jenkins sent her a photo of the person Ryder was kissing. It was her coworker, Sophia.

She didn't want to believe it so she went to the assistant department to confirm, and even when she as confirmed she still didn't want to believe it was true. Ryder and Sophia? It can't be possible, those are the two people that are closest to her.

She remembered how Sophia always adviced her to leave Ryder, saying he wasn't a good match for her. Only for she to be sleeping with him behind her back?

With shaky breath, and shaky hands she picked up her phone and called lady Jenkins.

"Ms. Jenkins, have you seen them leave the house?"she asked. When she got the answer she needed, she took her jacket and throw it on. Without informing her boss about her leaving, she ran into the elevator.

**** 

Camilla drove roughly into her parking lot, she hurriedly came out of her car and exhaled. 

She paused as she stepped on her driveway, she just wanted to prove Ms. Jenkins suspicion and the photo she sent her wrong, that was why she came here. She believed her husband would never cheat on her.

She walked to her front porch. She raised her arm to knock but remembering she knew the pass code and it is her home, she imputed the pass code, she opened the door as silent as she could trying to not make a sound. Closing it the same way.

The sight that she meet almost made her collapse, Ryderfingers where in Sophia’s Virginia, he moved it up and down as he finger fuck her. Kissing her neck while she moaned like the bitch she is.

Camilla stood numb for the first few minutes, with them still having no knowledge of her presence she called.

"Ryder"her voice was trembling and audible, it made both Ryder and Sophia flinched as they stared at her in shock, embarrassment, and surprise.

"C… ca… Camilla I can explain"Ryder stuttered removing his fingers from Sophia Virginia and she hid behind him.

"Explain what? You asshole"she barked, her eyes red as tears welled up threatening to fall.

"It's not what you are thinking, this is all a misunderstanding"Ryder said as her moved away from Sophia, who covered her self with his suite jacket. She doesn't look remorseful at all.

"Misunderstanding?"she asked staring at Ryder in disbelief as tears rolled down her cheeks.

"I loved you, I did everything I could to make you happy. What did you ever asked from me that i didn't offer? was i not good enough for you? Or was it because i had a better job?"she threw the questions.

Sophia rolled her eyes in disgust, while Ryder expression changed from remorseful to a sadistic smirk hanging on his lips. He let out a chuckle, the smirk turning into a smile.

"It took you so long to figure out"He said and a gasp escaped Camilla's lips as she tried to catch her breath, never had she imagine a day like this would come.

"Me dating you from highschool, our marriage. It was all a bet."Ryder explained, Camilla's eyes grew wide in shock.

"I never loved you Camilla, i only got addicted to your pussy and that's all. The reason i dated you in highschool was because of a bet, you mean absolutely nothing to me."he added.

"You son of a bitch"Camilla cursed with tears pouring down her cheeks.

"Save it. I am the only man that would beer to be with a woman like you, you think other men would want to be with a woman like you? A woman who put her work first before everything. I'm certain you are having an affair with your boss that's why you are always with him. so while you where having fun, i decided to have mine"

Slap!

Camilla cut him of with a slap, his head titled to the side and he chuckled while Sophia stared in shock. She rushed to Ryder and held his check, staring at his already red cheek she turned to Camilla. She looked furious.

"How dare you? Are you out of you goddamn mind?"Sophia barked. Before she could raise her arm to slap Camilla she already received one that made her fell to the ground with an heavy thong twisting her ankle in the process, a scream left her lips.

"You bitch"she whimpered.

"How dare you touch her?"Ryder barked and knelt beside Sophia checking her twisted ankle. "Does it hurt?"he questioned. "Yes. ouch don't touch it"she winched as he placed his hand on her ankle.

"You bitch, you’ve seen what you cost"he said and stood up, he walked to Camilla with the aim of beating her but her next words made him stop.

"Touch me and go to jail"she said dryly. "I fucking dare you asshole"she barked, her tone dripping with venom, hate and disgust. 

A chuckle left her lips when she saw how powerless he had become.

"I never slept with my boss, we never did nothing. He never kissed me or made any attempt to touch me, I kept myself for you i chased every man who came to me because of you unfaithful bastered"she screamed, the hurt leaving her tone and expression, and was replaced with anger and hatred.

"I never wanted to take this job, only took it because of your unfaithful ass, idiotic bastard. You made me work there, you told me i should put my work first because yours wasn't paying enough. I did everything for your ungrateful ass, now I know why my brother and father never like you. Ryder, they saw you from the start. They knew you could never worth me, but i. I was the idiot falling madly in love with an idiot. Ryder I made you, i gave you a fucking life when you had nothing"she said, her eyes red with tears and anger. 

"But you know what, i will get over you. No I'm already over you, we've been married for five years. I bet you know how i forget worthless things easily. And as for you, Sophia the husband snatcher" she turned to Sophia, who was staring at her with surprise and fear. She had never expected Camilla to speakup for herself, she always thought she was the meek one. But here she was proving her wrong. Even Camilla herself was shocked by her own outburst, and Ryder wasn’t left out. He was shock from the moon back.

"You are so stupid, you know why. I thought we were friends, but it seems that we are enemies. Remember how you always made me feel like a useless wife, made me feel like I was never worth him. I guess you are happy now, really happy, because you will be spending the rest of your miserable life suffering with a muliplative idiot like him. Let me tell you a secret, Ryder as a problem you can’t have a child together because he can’t impregnate a woman" Camilla said and Ryder gasp, he knew what Camilla said wasn't true. She only said that to scare Sophia and it's working because she look like she as been drenched with cold water.

"Have fun being together, I wish you well. You will hear from my lawyer Tomorrow, i want a Divorce"she said and with that she walk out of the house, even with Ryder and Sophia cursing her.

As she reached the driveway, she let out the tears that she has been holding since. Even if she look like she doesn't care about Ryder or she hates him. It was all an act, she loved Ryder till death and he had to break her heart into pieces like this without feeling remorseful. She rested on her car and stared crying, nothing hurts more than heartbreak. 

And the fact that his love for her wasn't real, it was all a bet. That part broke her the most. She got into the driver's seat and started crying, god the way she hates seeing tears but Ryder had to make her share some. 

She rest her head on the steerwheel, and stayed like that crying and sobbing. Her cry's ranted the whole car and she stayed like that for over thirty minutes. 

The ringing off her phone, distracted her from crying. She brought it out of her bag, to decline it, only to that is was her boss Vincenzo, calling.

She immediately answered the call, then wiped her tears as she placed the phone on her ear.

"Boss"she called trying to sound ok. "Where are you? Meet me at the company in an hour,"he said and end the call before she could even speak.

She sighed as she removed the phone from her ear, she checked the time. Goodness she has never been late for anything involving work before but here she was. She is already three hours late, he gave her two hours but she spent three. The meeting must have already ended.

She sighed again, she started the car and the engine roared to life. she drove unto the road. On her way to the company, she bought acholic drinks and drank while driving. Even when she knows that it was wrong, she was drunk driving. She got an email from Vincenzo that they had a trip to attend  and she was gonna accompany him.

She parked her car at the underground garage, and staggered to the elevator, which she took straight to the roof top.

When she got there, she meet Vincenzo's body guard's standing outside the private jet. Probably waiting for her. 

They all stared at her with raised eyebrows, as she staggered to the jet. She got in and they entered too, closing the door behind her.

"Boss is waiting for you, in the private lounge."one of the body guard's said to her as she walked towards the private lounge, while he stared at her with confusion.

"Gosh am in a deep shit"she mumbled to herself and opened the door.

Vincenzo is seating on the bed shirtless, he was taking off his wrist watch like he was ready to take a bath. 

She gulped, as she stared at the sexy and attractive man Infront of her. She bite on bottom her lip until it started bleeding.

"If I lose my…. Job then I lose it"she mumbled to herself and started approaching him.

Vincenzo finally noticing her presence, he glance up. His piercing gaze landed on her and he frowned as he stared at the way she was walking.

"Where the fuck…"before he could complete his statement, she push him to the bed and layed sat on top of him.

She lowered her upper body, to his and whispered to his ear. 

"Just once boss, once. Make me feel good and will never ask you to, ever"she whispered into his ears and claimed his lips.
