My Little Rebel: Taming The Impossible Millionaire

It was almost midnight when everything changed for Gia. She was in the kitchen, a cup of tea in her hands, trying to process another difficult day at her mother's hospital bedside. She was startled when her father came slamming the door."Gia!" Her father's shout made her jump. "Get over here right now!"She didn't need to see him to know he'd been drinking. The smell of whiskey reached the kitchen before him. Her stepmother Regina appeared behind her, with that smile that always foretold trouble, and of course, Alina, her stepsister, wouldn't miss this spectacle for anything in the world."What's wrong, Dad?" Gia asked, leaving the cup on the counter."What's wrong?" Her father let out a bitter laugh. "I'm just fed up. Fed up! Do you know how much the hospital cost me today? Do you have any idea how much money I've spent on your mother over the years?""But Dad..." Gia felt her voice tremble. "Mom needs us, the doctors say she could wake up at any moment...""The doctors have been sa

Gia stood there, shivering, desperately trying to keep the towel in place as she picked up her clothes from the floor, her hands shaking so much she could barely hold the garments."Look at the little bitch!" someone shouted from one of the doors that had opened. "She looks better in a towel than with clothes on!"Laughter echoed down the hallway as more neighbors came out to watch the spectacle. Gia recognized the lady from 3B, who had always given her the dirty look, holding her phone up high."This is going straight to Instagram!" the woman exclaimed maliciously. "The true face of young girls today!""Please," Gia whispered, her voice cracking as she tried to pick up a bra that had fallen near the feet of a teenager who kept taking pictures. "Please stop..."Everyone pointed at her, but no one took pity on her and tried to help her.The sound of a door slamming open startled her, it was Dan, coming out of the apartment."Do you need help, sweetheart?" he asked with a mocking smile,

The huge steel gate opened to allow the truck carrying Gia, Juno and Grandma Herminia to pass through. Looking through the window, Gia felt her breath catch. Huge gardens that seemed straight out of a fairy tale stretched as far as the eye could see, covered with leafy trees and beautiful rose bushes. At the end of the road they came to an imposing mansion, whose architecture combined classic and modern designs. “Welcome to your new home, dear.” Grandma smiled at Gia’s amazed expression. “What do you think?”Gia tried to speak, but couldn’t. Her eyes filled with tears at the old lady’s kindness, remembering that just a few hours earlier, she had found herself soaked in the street, with nowhere to go. “Madam…I thank you infinitely.” She finally managed to say, on the verge of tears. “No tears, Miss,” said Grandma, patting her gently on the back. “Oh, and no ma’am, I told you that you can call me Herminia, now come on, I’ll show you the house.”Juno remained silent, behind them, fee

Juno couldn't sleep, he tossed and turned in bed, tormented by thoughts he knew he shouldn't have. Why her? Why couldn't he get that insignificant maid out of his head?He had beautiful women at his feet, famous models, so why the hell couldn't he get Gia out of his mind? That was the only thing he needed, that woman was like a walking curse.He put his head down on the pillow, trying to erase her image from his mind, the way she moved her hands when she spoke, how she tilted her head when a topic seemed interesting to her, and how she bit her lower lip when... ahhh, his mind continued to torment him."Damn!" He growled annoyed, then got out of bed, he needed a drink.She headed towards the kitchen, but stopped short when she heard voices. Gia was sitting on the island, with a cup of tea in her hands, talking to Lupe the cook.“The truth is that I'm dying to go to the beach. I've lived in Miami for 18 years and I've never had time to go swimming at the beach.”“I can't believe it, gir

Time seemed to stop as Juno's lips remained pressed against Gia's, holding her tightly by the waist, the photographers did not miss the opportunity to capture the moment.“Juno Greco! Let her go immediately!” Grandma's voice could be heard behind them.Juno let go of Gia, until that moment she reacted, what the hell had she done?“You have completely lost your mind! How dare you do such a thing? You have put on a show.”The guests murmured as they did not miss a detail, Dorian approached them, furious, he tried to hit Juno, but Grandma stopped him.“I...no.” Juno blinked repeatedly, trying to assimilate what she had done.“You nothing!” Grandma said furiously. “Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize to you for such a show, the party is over.”“Grandma, please don't be so hard on Juno, she drank too much, she didn't do it consciously.” Tiago approached trying to justify his friend.”“Are you perhaps her accomplice in this? Because my grandson knows perfectly well what he has done, he has be
