His Substitute Bride 16
Sophia Censatio"Good morning, Mr. Samuel." I hurriedly stood up from where I was seating and greeted him professionally. He has allowed me to work for him for the time being and, the only thing I could do is act normal with him. I wouldn't want to do anything to cross the line. I could recall as he told me last week he doesn't tolerate lateness. I made sure to be here at promptly, 7:50 pm. I'm sure, he would have nothing to complain about. His coffee is also ready too."Good morning, Ms. Censatio." He answered in a business tone and I swear, for a while, my whole body went numb.He got into his office and I followed suit right away like a lost puppy. Two days back, I was sent some files through my Gmail and was asked to go through them to know his activities for the week. It wasn't easy though, I had to go through every line and understood them.He took a sit on his chair and opened his system. " Have you gotten the file on the MXY project?." He asked."Yes sir. Here it is. " I pl

Sophia Censatio"This little pretty mouth, you're running it too much huh." He said dangerously as his eyes almost make a hole in my lip. "I saved your ass and gave you a job and, all you do is look down on me?." He added in a dangerous tone and I can now feel his warm breath fanning through my face. He looks scary right now.For some strange reason, I'm happy and, I feel I can press more buttons. He might change his mind afterward and fire me... I'm positive, I will be free from him and this crazy bondage he's put me in.I pushed him away fr me with my two hands but he wouldn't budge. "I never asked you to give me a job. I never wanted to work for you, you forced me to... So, I see no reason why I won't say whatever comes to my mind. You're nothing but an annoying jerk and-""Don't finish that statement." He cut me off with a hard glare on his face.I'm never going to budge because of his look, idiot!"Or what? What would you do? Why are you so afraid to hear me talk? Because you'r

W.. wh.. what?!!! "You did not just call me a bitch, did you?""And if I do, do you have a problem with that?" "Don't you think, you're being rude to me for no reason? For all that I know, I do not know you likewise do you so, why would you choose to judge someone you know nothing about for the first time of meeting? If I would judge you in the same way you do then... I would conclude you're nothing but a slut who throws herself at any man she comes across.""How dare you?!" She asked through gritted teeth and slapped me hard across my face. I felt a pang in my chest. I wasn't expecting that."How dare you call me a slut, you lowly bitch! How dare you?!" She asked again and pushed me. She took me off guard again, never do I expect anything like this from her. Before I could say or do anything to her, we both heard the telecom ringing. I wanted to answer it but she stopped me. "Don't you dare! Know your place, I'm still here. I know what to do to make Aaron fire you so, always kno

Sophia CensatioOkay Sophia, stop assuming things- I mentally scold myself. I decided to engage myself with work. Checking through the emails to know the clients and business partners who have booked an appointment with Mr. Samuel. I brought out my small book to write some vital information down as there's no way I'm going to put all of these things in my head. They're pretty much. I might as well just forget their names or probably, the time.I was busy writing his schedule for tomorrow down but seems, he has no much engagement for tomorrow... it's likely for him to spend most of his time here in his office tomorrow. Still engaged in my work when all of a sudden, my phone started to ring again for the second time today. I groaned and lazily picked the phone up from my desk but, my face lit up in excitement all of a sudden.It's Janet.I slide to the green side and answered the call immediately before it could hang up. "Hey, Jenny!" I cheerfully called out her name."Betrayal!! I

Sophia Censatio" What do you mean?." I asked and tied my long hair in a ponytail. Suddenly, I started to feel hot despite the air conditioning working. I just don't know why I'm feeling this hot all of a sudden."And what's so special about that woman? It's not like she is his wife or something. Nor is she his girlfriend. " Now, these girls are stressing me a lot. They keep whining at me and won't stop dragging this issue. They're millionaires and billionaire wives, I'm just a common girl who needs to work hard and, I can't believe they're doing this to me on my first day at work."Sophia, she is not his girlfriend but, they literarily go out together. Most people know something is going on between the two even though non of the workers could say it. If Aaron heard them or that witch heard them talking about it, they will fire right away. " Lexy said." Are you saying, she is his sex mate? "" Kind of. " " What is he? Is he some kind of sex addict? " I'm getting curious about this m

Sophia CensatioWhat's wrong with him and glaring at me? It's not like I'm his child or something. Why would he want to intimidate me with his look?"Answer me, Sophia. Why did you allow her to do that to you? I saw everything."" Wait, what?! Did you install a camera in my office to monitor me? Do you think I'm a cheat or someone that will run away with your money? I'm not that cheap you, know." I rolled my eyes at him, angrily.If he heard my discussion with Susan and saw everything... Does that mean, he also heard my conversation with the girls too? Oh my goodness! What if he has heard about everything?!Calm down, Sophia. If he does, you know him too well, he would have probably made fun of you already. No, he did not- I assured myself.But, what if he did?Then, he will say it and, if he doesn't, it means he didn't listen to your conversation. He probably has a lot of things to do... Just take a look at his desk. Full of files..." Why? You're going against your own words now? Yo

Aaron SamuelThis girl is just so unbelievable! I know meeting with her was just a mere coincidence but, how did the fuck did I end up having her closer to me? Maybe, it's because she's always interesting. And my friends, they're still surprised that I haven't thrown her in jail yet and rather, I offered her a job.I have no idea what's so special about her but I feel, there's this strange feeling, this weird connection drawing me closer to her. When I kissed her earlier before she ran out of my office, I swear, I've never felt that way for a very long time. The only time I felt that way was when I was with her.. No, no.. no... no! There's nk way, I'm going to fall for this shit again!I was working on my file when suddenly my gaze shifted to the system. I looked at it and saw Sophia and Susan walked in her new office. There's this excitement on her face. I've never seen her this happy before. She looks so happy and beau-No, control yourself, Aaron. Fucking control yourself- I remi

Aaron SamuelFully aware of my anger issue and yet, provoke me at every given opportunity she's got. I know, I haven't shouted this much at her ever since I knew her, I can only scold her and that's all. Neither does she do her work properly or do things right. She better be lucky because of what we had else, I would have shown her the other side of me. I watch her stare at me with an unexplainable look, she looks pained. I have no idea before she ran out of my office. Good riddance- I softly muttered and shook my head afterward.Trying to forget about what has happened, I decided to concentrate more on my work and switched off my CCTV system. Not quite long after that was done, my phone started to ring.It's Zoey!"Hey, baby." He said in a girly tone."Fuck off, you idiot! Beth mustn't hear you say this, she would kill you." I said rolling my eyes at him even though he can't see me. All my friends are foolishly in love and neither can I consider the girls bad. I just hope it las
