I pushed her off me with every strength I had within me, Riley was pretty strong, I was already in pain, I looked down at my hand and realized that I had bruises on it already, I was furious “what is wrong with you?” I yelled.That was it, Riley lost her temper completely, for the first time I saw her react in the most dangerous way, she grabbed a figurine in the living room and threw it at me, good enough I missed it, my heart completely jumped into my stomach, she kept throwing things at me while I continued dodging them, the maids ran to my rescue, they tried to stop her but she got even more violent and tried to attack them, out of fear they ran to get more help.The whole place was covered in glass, pieces of art, clay, silver and bronze, Grace walked into the house and Riley fell on her knees crying out loud.I was confused, what the hell is going on here? I didn’t understand a single thing, I am the victim here, why is she suddenly crying?“What is it? What is going on here?” G
“Finn, it’s really you” my mother smirked uncomfortably, I knew she didn’t expect to see both of us together, especially not like this, not when she wanted Finn to be with her precious Riley. “Hello Mrs Duke” he greeted with a grin and so did I even though I didn’t want to but did it for courtesy sake.She took one glance at me like I was the devil and turned back to him “I heard you weren’t feeling well, I am really surprised to see you looking so healthy and equally having lunch with this…” she stretched the last word then shook her head while wagging her forefinger at me “what should I even call her, your servant?”I had my head bowed, I was expecting worse, she is deeply shocked to see me with Finn, goodness I just brought myself into the spotlight, I should be expecting really strong bullets from both my mother, half sister and Mrs Grace who must be so mad at Finn for taking me on a date.“Whoever told you that I am sick must be a joker, besides why do you all keep saying I am s
It was absolutely terrifying, robbers were invading businesses nearby and stealing from them, it wouldn’t take long for them to get into the restaurant and rob everyone there too that is if the police doesn’t get there on time, I guess someone must have called them or maybe they might be too scared to dial on their phones.I saw customers at the restaurant crawling under their tables shivering with fear when Finn dragged me into safety, I doubted if we were really safe.My eyes were clouded with tears, my hands shaking while I had them clenching each other, I prayed deep in my heart that nothing happens to us, I wasn’t ready to die, I was so scared of guns.Finn had locked us in one of the stalls in the restroom and in no time my anxiety kicked in, I was so scared of tiny spaces. Maybe I didn’t tell you but apart from the horrible things my mother did to me as a child, she equally abused me, I didn’t realize what she was doing to me then was wrong even though she would warn me never t
I woke up in his arms the next morning, I took one glance at his face and smiled cuddling him tighter, last night was mind blowing, I didn’t want it to end but it did end after we fell asleep, I took once glance at his handsome face and took a deep sigh, what does this mean? Does he have a crush on me too? This is amazing.I suddenly grew sad for a when I remembered that he was the CEO of Caddel group of companies, a billionaire, my boss and I am just some poor girl who wants revenge by all means on her mother, some girl who only got employed in the company not because I merited it but because I was… well I really don’t know why I got employed there but I was glad I did but instead of doing that which I had gotten the job for in the first place, I am busy falling helplessly in love with my boss.Few minutes later he equally woke up, I pretended to be fast asleep, he took a shower and kissed me before he left. My eyes flew open, as I sat up on my bed and thought about the night over an
It was Finn’s birthday, I dressed my best and so did everyone else who was in attendance which includes my colleagues.As his personal assistant I kept following him around making sure that everything was in order just to make it an exceptional occasion just as he wanted.He looked so bright, very happy, his friends and business associates were all there, I equally saw Kurtis Jericho, he was equally a business associate with Caddel’s group of companies.Everything was going so well until Finn began his long speech, I grinned from cheek to cheek knowing it was finally time for him to put the ring on the finger, yes, he finally did put the ring but it wasn’t on my finger, it was on Riley’s finger, my half sister.I was thrilled, I couldn’t believe my eyes, I couldn’t believe that Finn would actually fall for my mother’s threat and choose Riley over me, does this mean that everything we shared meant absolutely nothing to him? I hurried out of the party and sat at the garden with tears le
It was the weekend, I was having a drink in my apartment when a notification popped up on my phone, I just received my salary with some extra change in it and with it I left for the computer village, bought some mini spy cameras and few other things.Later that night, I was able to sneak into the company, yes I was supposed to get caught because the company had a very tight security but I had some help which made it easier for me. I had someone with me who I paid to help me install the spy cameras everywhere I wanted it especially those places that had no CCTV cameras.It was a long night but we were done before dawn, now I could monitor everything that happens within the company through my smartphone, amazing isn’t it?I resumed work on Monday and I ignored my boss completely, I guess it still amazes him how I switched from a heartbroken girl into a professional personal assistant which he actually wanted, well the same way he switched from a caring boss into a rude one.I saw Riley w
Grace smiled when they both walked into the office “I have been willing to show you both this, what do you think about this decoration? Wouldn’t it be perfect for the wedding?” She tried handing them a magazine.My mother and Riley took one glance at each other and burst into a loud roar of laughter making Grace look so stupid, she gasped wondering what that was all about.“What is going on here? What’s amusing you both?” She asked looking so ignorant when my mother dropped the file on her table and pushed it towards her.“And what is this?” Grace asked looking very confused.“What does it look like? Your beloved son just signed your company to me and my daughter” she informed laughing loudly.Grace shook her head in disapproval refusing to believe that any of that was true, she opened the file and went through it, she stood up on her feet with tears gently clouding her eyes “this can’t be true, this is fake.”My mother took one glance at Riley and turned back to Grace “maybe you shoul
You see, after I got employed into the company and Finn got his heartbroken, Grace asked me for a favour, she knew Willow had a plan and needed someone to help her unravel it, she called me the green snake under green grass, she wanted me to remain that way until it was over.Grace told me she wanted me to play along with everyone including her son and asked me to keep a close eye on my mother and half sister unknown to her that I was actually in her company on a mission to destroy them.It wasn’t difficult doing those things she wanted me to do, I kept reporting everything I saw or heard to he, after I fell in love with Finn got my feelings crushed by him, I still played my game well, it wasn’t just about my revenge now, it’s equally about the promise my made to Grace.My mother Willow Duke had deadly evidence against the three men who sold their shares to her, she had pictures of them selling illegal drugs and engaging in other illegal businesses plus documents to back them up, she
