Cunning plan

"I offer you to be my woman, Lucy Watts. If you want your life will be much better than now. I will give you what you ask for, being my woman means you don't have to work hard as secretary Daniel Noel anymore, how about you?" interested?" he said confidently.

"Sorry, Mr. Hakon. I already have a girlfriend and our relationship is serious enough," I answered firmly.

"Really? It doesn't matter to me, because being my woman doesn't mean having to be a lover. You just have to agree to it then we'll start dating tonight."

God, this man is really crazy and insane! I can't stop thinking his perverted brain really makes me sick and want to leave immediately!

"It is with great regret that I decline your offer, Mr. Hakon because sorry I'm not the kind of woman you think. I think it's enough for me to be here, I beg your pardon and excuse me," I replied with annoyance, I had a hard time holding my hand so it wouldn't float on his lecherous face while looking at me!

I didn't care about Tobias Hakon's reaction, I walked quickly out of the restaurant and ordered a taxi outside the restaurant. However, when I was about to stop a taxi, suddenly a hand prevented me from going inside.

"Kenneth?!" I screamed in shock.

"You go, this woman will come home with me!" Kenneth ordered the taxi driver who stopped in front of me.

"Please let me go! I want to go home!" I exclaimed angrily.

"Calm down, Lucy. I'll take you home because I was the one responsible for bringing you here earlier," he said seriously.

"I can go home by myself! So please let me go!" I grumbled.

"Fine I'll let you go, but please calm down. We can have a nice talk in the car and I'll take you home," he said softly trying to calm me down.

I paused and thought for a moment, with Kenneth being nice to me. I'm annoyed with the boss doesn't mean I have to be angry with him too right? Because Kenneth's position is the same as mine, only carrying out orders and work from his own superiors. So I thought, there's nothing wrong with not rejecting his good intentions to me?

"Why did you come out of the restaurant so angry, Lucy? Has Mr. Hakon offended you?" Kenneth asked after we got in the car.

"I think you already know the answer, Mr. Done, so I don't need to answer your question," I snapped with an annoyed expression on my face.

"Gosh, didn't you already know that Mr. Hakon was interested in you from the first time he met you. He is also a good man and of course very well-off, why did you turn him down, Lucy?" Kenneth asked with his innocent face.

"Of course I refused, because first I already have a lover and most importantly I'm not the woman that your boss had in mind!" I answered emphatically.

"Okay, okay I understand. You are a woman of high principles, Miss. Lucy Watts. I adore you," Kenneth replied, keeping his eyes focused on the road.

silence.

I don't want to say much because I'm really in a very upset mood right now. Perched for a few moments, I then realized that the path Kenneth was taking was not the road leading to my apartment.

"Kenneth, where are we going? This isn't the way back to my apartment!" I protested that something was wrong.

"Really? I think this is true, Lucy. Because I purposely took a shortcut so we can get to your apartment more quickly," he said casually.

No, this is not true! I know which way to go! My gut told me something was wrong.

"Drop me here! I can go home myself!" I ordered firmly, not wanting to risk things happening that I didn't want.

"Relax, Lucy! Why are you panicking like that. Don't worry, I'll definitely take you home," Kenneth said.

"No, just drop me here, Kenneth Done! Otherwise I'll jump out of the car!" I threaten seriously.

So at that moment, Kenneth pulled over to the side of the road and stopped the car. Without thinking twice, I quickly opened the car door, but it was locked.

"Open the door, Kenneth! Why are you still locking it?!" I shouted starting to panic.

"Sorry, Lucy. Looks like I have to do this to you." Kenneth said before i realised, the man covered my nose and mouth with a handkerchief.

I tried to struggle to escape, but somehow my body felt weak and couldn't be moved before everything went dark because my vision started to blur and weaken.

On the other hand, Daniel Noel just found out from his personal assistant that Tobias Hakon invited his secretary to dinner without his knowledge. Somehow he felt annoyed, jealous? that was impossible because there was no love at all for his secretary, which was indeed in his view as a normal man, the figure of Lucy Watts his secretary was a beautiful and charming woman even though the beauty of the secretary was far from being compared to the beauty of his wife, Helen Noel, but Lucy Watts seemed to have a charm in her that made her have a different beauty from the women Daniel had ever met so far in his life.

Especially since the events of that night, where Daniel had made a mistake one night with the secretary which was completely his own fault and Daniel Noel was aware of that. Since then Daniel's view of Lucy changed, in silence he increasingly admired Lucy Watts as a woman with high principles.

Daniel knows that he is the first man for Lucy Watts who has managed to touch him by forcing himself, but until now he still doesn't understand why that woman didn't hold him responsible instead of insisting on refusing responsibility from her and agreeing to forget that hot night?that is what still makes an impression on Daniel Noel's mind. Lucy is indeed different from the women she has known in her life, even Helen, her wife, was not a virgin the first time they made love, but Daniel Noel has not had a problem with that so far.

Because of that Daniel Noel feels responsible for his secretary's life now, moreover he knows the figure of Tobias Hakon his business partner who has a bad temper or rather a pervert, and has long been interested in Lucy Watts.

"Shit!! Why isn't your phone working now?!" Daniel cursed, annoyed because he had called his secretary many times but there was no answer, but now his cell phone is off, of course this makes Daniel even more anxious and has no-nonsense thoughts.

"Marvel, quickly find out where Tobias Hakon is staying and where he is most recently!" Daniel orders someone on the phone.

He breathed roughly, his face looked frustrated and worried, he himself didn't realize why he could be so worried about Lucy Watts who was only his secretary who had served him for almost three years.

Not wanting to stay silent, Daniel came out of the mansion and launched his car towards Lucy Watts' apartment. However, just a few minutes before he got there, a phone call broke his concentration.

"Yeah, Marvel what did you get?"

"What?!! Fine, quickly send me the location now!" Daniel ordered, this time his face was furious after receiving news from the caller that Tobias Hakon had taken Lucy to a villa in Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles.
