Mag-log inThe hot liquid hit her skin before her brain could process what was happening.
“Aharhhhh!” Daniella staggered back instantly, the tray slipping slightly from her grip as the coffee soaked into her cloth. She glared at him hard, tears building up in her eye lids, a smirk escaping her lips, of course she wasn’t surprised. If he could rip out the heart of a man then what’s coffee he can’t spill on her, Her fingers clenched tightly as she fought the urge not to scream again, she wanted to feel the pain so badly so every time she looked at him she’d be reminded that he was going to die by her own hands. The room went dead silent. Christain didn’t move, he didn’t apologize instead he slowly placed the cup on the table. “I told you I wanted black coffee with no milk and no sugar so what did you just give me?” He questioned his voice hard and extremely harshly. Daniella chest burned, her pride burned even more She glared at him hard. “I … I made it in a way you requested” Daniella stammered. She was sure, she made sure it was black coffee and didn’t even put sugar or milk. “Drink!” Christian ordered pushing the cup with a little bit of coffee inside it towards her. Daniella slowly pulled the cup with her hands and then into her mouth she speedily spilled it out. The coffee was pepperish like someone had added pepper inside it. “I … didn’t do this.. I made sure I put just black coffee” she tried to explain but words failed her. Christian raised his head slowly watching her reaction but she stayed mute, no emotions not even anger annoyance tears nothing. And this annoyed him the most. Christain stood up, and slowly he walked towards Daniella. His legs came to a halt when she stopped two feet away from her close enough for Daniella to feel his breath on her skin if he talked. He lowered his head and his mouth extremely close to Daniella’s ears. She said nothing, no movement, her body arched as she stood but she showed no sign of weakness. “You have one job, and you can’t even do it properly” His eyes lingered on her for a few seconds then he stepped back. “Clean this mess up and get out!” He said dismissively, Daniella nodded. “Yes sir” He had already turned away, picked up his laptop, his phone care keys and walked out of the room. To him Daniella was nothing. The moment she walked out of the door, the air became lighter, she could breathe properly she rushed through the hallway and then down the stairs and into her room she locked the door behind her. Daniella dropped on the bed, tearing her top open as she watched her bare body through the mirror in the room From her chest down to her breast were pure red, as a result from the burnt tea spilled on her. “What the fuck was that?” She groaned, her eyes tearing open in annoyance. “That idiot!” She scoffed taking a look at her skin again, of course she wanted to kill him immediately, “What on earth does he think he is?” She asked no one in particular, her head burning in annoyance. “He thinks he can do this to me and go Scot free” her eyes dropped on her hot pointy nipple in annoyance. She squeezed them softly, a little moan escaping her lips slowly. “Damn girl” she whispered. She looked at the mark on her bare body, she hissed the pain didn’t bother her, if anything she pain built her, she hated christian even more. She stood up slowly, walking towards the mirror her reflection stared back at her. “Don’t worry Danny, we will win” she whispered slowly to herself. She turned away from the mirror, grabbed a fresh shirt and pulled it on, she wasn’t backing out now, she’d make sure she gets everything she wants and destroy his life, that was her mission. Outside Christian drove angrily, something about Daniella bothered like crazy, not the coffee or the interaction. It’s the way she stood with no emotions written on her face. He wanted her to react, say something at least that would get him to sack her, he hated the fact that she was living with him, he hated women and Daniella was someone who he just couldn’t stand. He drove the car to a halt as he pulled the car door open, stepping out and walking into the bar by the right hand side of the road. “What may we get you sir?” The waitress walked up to him a few minutes after he sat down. “Whiskey” he responded dismissively, not even looking at the ladies face. “Mom, you caused all this!” He screamed as the lady walked out Few minutes later she returned back with a bottle of whiskey and a glass cup. Christain tore the bottle open and gulped almost half of the bottle down his throat trying to get himself high as crazy. After a while it began to kick in, his vision blurred as he tried to get himself together but was failing at it He turned sharply his eyes dropping on one of the women who was almost naked, she looked at him her face curving into a smile as she rolled her waist in circles Christian couldn’t take it any more, he was losing his mind. The lady who didn’t understand what was going on started matching her way towards him. “I’m sorry you can’t come anywhere close to him” Christian’s personal assistant walked in almost immediately as he blocked the woman from coming anywhere close to his boss. The woman hissed and walked away angrily. “Boss, are you okay?” David asked, trying to pull Christian together.“What?”The word left Daniella’s lips slowly, almost like she wasn’t sure she had heard him correctly. Her brows pulled together in confusion as she stared at him, searching his face for any sign that this was some kind of joke. But Christian wasn’t smiling. He wasn’t even slightly amused. His expression remained calm, steady, and completely serious.“You heard me,” he said, his voice even, controlled. “You’re not staying here as a maid anymore.”Daniella blinked, still trying to process it. “Then… what exactly are you saying?”Christian moved away from the window, walking past her slowly before turning back, his hands sliding into his pockets in that effortless way he carried himself. There was something different about him tonight. Something quieter, but heavier.“I’ve been watching you,” he said.That alone made her chest tighten slightly.“Watching me?” she repeated carefully.He nodded once. “The way you handled tonight. The way you think. The wa
“What the hell are you doing here?”Christian’s voice cut through the room like a blade, sharp and filled with restrained fury. The moment his eyes landed on Angela sprawled across his bed, something inside him snapped not loudly, not dramatically, but in that quiet, dangerous way that made him far more terrifying.Angella didn’t flinch, a beautiful smile sat widely across her face as her hands rubbed her pussy softly, her eyes staring at Christian’s hot body, the weight of his huge cock pulled his shorts slightly; she could see the shape and also imagine the size. “I missed you,” she said softly, her voice dripping with false sweetness as she shifted slightly on the bed, completely unbothered by the tension thickening the air.Christian’s jaw tightened.The last trace of warmth from the shower vanished from his expression, replaced by something cold, something controlled but barely.“Get out.” His voice was thick and extremely deadly. Angela let out a
Christian barely glanced at David as he walked into the room, his attention still lingering somewhere far away.“Sir, here are the records on the findings you asked for,” David said respectfully, placing a brown file neatly on the table.Christian nodded once. “Leave it.”David hesitated for half a second, as if he wanted to say something, but thought better of it. “Yes, sir.” He turned and walked out, shutting the door quietly behind him.The room fell into silence.Christian stood still for a moment, then slowly walked toward the table. His fingers hovered over the file before finally picking it up. There was something oddly unsettling about this moment, something his instincts were warning him about but he couldn’t quite place it.He flipped it open, his eyes landed on some documents, background details and even pictures. His eyes scanned through them quickly at first, then slower… more carefully.He saw Daniella’s childhood pictures, her school r
Christian’s eyes darkened the moment he spotted the familiar figure walking into the restaurant. His grip tightened slightly on the fork in his hand, and for the first time since they sat down, his calm composure slipped just a little.“Oh no… why’s he here?” he muttered under his breath.Daniella noticed the change immediately. She followed his line of sight and spotted a tall, well-built man dressed in a charcoal suit, his presence loud even without him saying a word. There was confidence in his stride, the kind that came from money and influence, but his face carried something else, mischief.“Who’s that?” Daniella asked quietly.Christian exhaled slowly, already preparing himself. “A problem.”That was all he said, but it was enough.Before Daniella could ask another question, the man’s eyes landed on them and then a wide grin spread across his face.“Well, well… if it isn’t Christian Harper.”Christian leaned back slightly, his expression instantly returning to its usual unreadab
Daniella’s voice came out sharp with confusion. “What do you mean we’re going out?”Christian had already turned halfway toward the stairs when he paused briefly, glancing back at her with a look that clearly said he didn’t have the patience to explain himself twice.“Exactly what I said,” he replied. “Go upstairs, change, and come down in ten minutes.”Daniella frowned deeply. “Change into what? You didn’t even tell me where we’re going.”Christian exhaled slowly, clearly irritated. “Stop asking questions and just do what I said.”She stared at him for a second, completely unimpressed. “You’re so bossy.”“And you talk too much,” he shot back immediately.Daniella rolled her eyes dramatically before turning and heading upstairs. “Whatever,” she muttered under her breath as she disappeared into her room.Ten minutes later, she came back downstairs dressed in her usual oversized trousers and a loose polo shirt, her hair tied back carelessly like she had
The ride back home was quiet, it wasn’t because they had nothing to say but the day's activity kept replying on their head. Daniella as usual placed her head outside the window, the win hitting her face as the car drove in full speed, she opened her mouth playing with the wind as the move, Christian on his own end kept his hands busy with his phone as she consistently kept stealing glances at Daniella when she wasn’t looking. her fingers lightly tracing the edge of the shopping bag that held the dress. Her reflection stared back at her through the glass, and for a moment, she didn’t recognize herself. Not because of how she looked, but because of how she felt.Something was changing.And she didn’t like it.“Focus,” she whispered inwardly. “You’re not here to feel anything.”She shifted slightly, glancing at Christian from the corner of her eye. He looked calm as always, his posture relaxed, his expression unreadable, but she wasn’t fooled. There was something different about him to
