LOGINIsabella woke up in the morning and felt the ache in a place that never hurt before. She took a glimpse at her body, and Her thoughts went blank. Isabella's eyes discovered a guy who was laying near her, asleep, and her thoughts brought back to all the bizarre things that transpired last night. My boyfriend of 2 years abandoned me, I was intoxicated and went to my hotel room alone. Someone climbed on me. To say that he was gorgeous is an understatement. If an angel could marry a Satan, then I'm convinced he was their offspring. But it was not the goal! He came to me and kissed me. One thing led to another.. God! This man snatched my virginity. And it was hardly the worst. Guess what! He was my new boss Gabriel Remington. I was his new executive assistant. To top it, my former lover accused my boss that he raped me. What should I do? Trust my former lover who just dumped me? Or.. Trust my new boss who took my virginity?

Morning brightness is something I've always loved, what's not to like? It makes you feel cosy and at ease. That's the reason I choose to walk instead of driving to work. Anyhow, it just takes me fifteen minutes to walk from my house to the office.
It's my third year working for this firm. I work as the vice president of Remington Printing's executive assistant. One of the largest corporations in the world, Remington Industries, is home to several subsidiaries, including Remington Printing. Top 5 in the entertainment industry. Remington Production, the largest business of Remington Industries, creates films that are often successful at the box office.
Remington Media is another one of them. They have internet media now, but I still recall buying their magazine every time I was a teenager. Enough about Remington Industries, now. Since Remington Industries is so enormous, to be honest, I never find out how large it is. All I know is that Mr. Gabriel Remington, the CEO, is among the world's youngest billionaires. The last time I checked, my colleagues told me that Gabriel Remington had a $20 billion fortune. Oh my goodness, what will you do with that much cash? I don't directly know Gabriel Remington, though. I'm not a huge admirer of the things that billionaires own. I have no idea what his appearance is, hell. My coworkers think he's quite attractive. Perhaps they are prejudiced, then. That's not how God could have created a flawless man, is it?
Anyway, let's get back to my life (why are we discussing Gabriel Remington ?). I'm currently seated at my workstation. I'm restless. I received some exciting news yesterday from my employer, Denise Colton. He hasn't yet informed me. But maybe I'll get promoted so I can move to Los Angeles! The last time they asked, I turned them down since my mother was ill. However, I sent Mom to her final resting place last month. She had been battling cancer for a very long period. Though I'm relieved she may now rest in peace, I was heartbroken when she passed away. She is at least no longer in pain. And now that Alex is in Los Angeles, I have nothing keeping me in Oakwood Town. I informed HRD and Denise that I'm prepared to go.
My lover is Alex Mason. We've spent the last two years dating. We have the same objective, which makes him a decent man in my opinion. Our attention is on our career. He was my school's senior. One year my senior. Our relationship was straightforward up until a few months ago when he became quite busy at work. He used to see Oakwood once a month. to come see me and his family. However, it has been six months since his previous return, which was for Thanksgiving. He excused himself, saying he was too busy to attend. Even my mother's death two months ago. He stated he was overworked when I requested him to be here for me.
I came to know that long-distance relationships are difficult. It's time for me to move because of this. To keep our friendship intact, I must act. Furthermore, I enjoy LA. In my youth, I resided in Los Angeles. However, that's another tale for another day. I just saw my boss, Den, get out of the elevator, so let's concentrate for the moment.
"Morning Denise!" I reply professionally but with a smile. Denise is an excellent manager. He is forty years old. When I just lost my mother, his wife Sophia was a huge assistance to me.
He says, "Morning Izzy!" and follows me directly to his office.
His morning ritual involves pouring a cup of coffee from his ostentatious machine, sitting on his chair, and opening his bag.
My heart raced inside my rib cage as I watched him. Den, hurry up! Tell me the news, please!
"Thus, "Yes!
"It's awful, Izzy, but I understand, you truly desire it," he groans and hands me a letter. "This is the letter promoting you. Best wishes, Isabella Montenegro!" He gives me a big smile.
"Oh my God! Den! I say, "Thank you," and unfold the letter.
I succeeded!
Indeed. Mr. Remington requires an executive assistant at headquarters. You'll report to Isabella, our CEO! Please make me proud."
"CEO?" I flinch. "As in Gabriel Remington ?"
"The one and only."
"Oh my God!" I can't even contain my enthusiasm anymore. "How... how come I got this position?" I can hear the trembling in my voice; it's a mixture of curiosity, excitement, and worry.
You are, after all, my finest executive assistant. I wrote you a letter with some pleasant words. Sarah gave me a call yesterday. Although she is extremely pregnant, she works as Gabriel's executive assistant. In two months, she will step down and devote herself full-time to raising her child. For Gabriel, she thus needs a new executive assistant. She enquired about you and concluded that you would do admirably."
"She is the one who decides it?"
Indeed. Remain calm. She has Gabriel's trust. They indicated that Gabriel would prefer to lose Sarah to half of his boss," Denise laughed.
I inhale deeply. "Denise, I'll make you happy! Yes, I will.
He gives a nod.
Gabriel's POVSo I was alone, and since my mood was as bad as the economy nowadays, I drank my vodka in my room. How many bottles did I drink last night? Damn! I pay for that now."Jesus, Gabriel!" Oh yes, that's my grandma's voice. I try to open my eyes. But it hurts."Were you drunk?" Grandma asks me. Her voice is like a hammer on my head. She stomps outside my room. I try to sit down slowly."Drink." She puts a glass in my hand and I do. "Eat." She gives me pills, most likely Advil, and I do too like a good kid."What happened to you? How much alcohol did you drink last night?""Lost count." My head is still hurting. I only remember I drank the vodka right from the bottle... bottles, to be precise."Where is Isabella?""At Ruby's.""So, if she was not around, you are allowed to drink that much?" Her voice rose."Jeez, Grandma. Lower your voice." I inhale and open my eyes slowly. "Ask Consuela. I'm going to shower. I'll see you downstairs."After a long hot shower, finally I feel hu
Gabriel's POV"Of course, I know. She likes me because of me... just me." And I can't help the smile forming in my mouth. It always warmed my heart when I remembered the day she agreed to be my girlfriend."God, you are so whipped and stupid," Christian murmured under his breath. "If you knew, why'd you give her your Amex?""So she can pamper herself. Told you I did that because I feel sorry," I say stubbornly. Why can't they understand what I mean?"You realise she's not into your money and you still give her your money? Wow, G!" Says Christian sarcastically.Shit! He's right..."But the car...""She deliberately did that to piss you off. It's so obvious, Gabriel." Christian shakes his head like he can't believe I'm that stupid."She asked for your apology, and you didn't do that. What you did is give her this and that. The things that she doesn't even care about. You didn't say sorry, you were too busy to defend yourself. This is not about who wins or loses, Gabriel. You are in a re
Gabriel's POV"And you think this can soothe my anger?" Isabella asks in disbelief."I..." Isabella cuts me. "Jesus Christ, Gabriel!" she says desperately. Why? I'm the one who is desperate right now. Not her."Okay, buy any jewellery you want. Whatever, Sweetness. Amex is unlimited. As long as you are happy. Okay?"She inhales angrily. "Fine!" She snatches the card. "You want me to be happy?" She asks. Somehow, the way she asks me, I know she is still angry, actually angrier than before. But I nod because I don't know what to do anymore.She thrust her hand in my face, palm up. "I want to drive your car.""Sure. Take any car you want. Which one?" I say fast.She smirks at me. "Your beloved Veneno Roadster.""Come again?" I can't believe my ears. Isabella smiles sweetly at me and speaks slowly. "Your dearest red Lamborghini, Gabriel Remington .""But..." She raises her eyebrow. "Okay," I say, defeated. And I can see in my peripheral vision Christian and Consuela hold their laugh. Trai
Gabriel's POV"Sweetness, you look so sexy. I'm jealous now. You should wear this to the office." I touch her naked back. Her skin is so soft. I love the way her strawberry blonde hairs fall with loose curls behind her back.She glares at me. "Did you know Christian and Ruby have a history?"O o... I'm in big trouble."Oh god!" she says because I said nothing. "Gabriel, you lied to me!" She scowls at me."Izzy..." Christian stands up and comes to us. Yes, buddy! You have to help me."No Christian," she says, her eyes still on me. "Why'd you lie to me, Gabriel?""I didn't—." She glares at me. "Okay, Sweetness. I mean, I knew Christian had a history with Ruby. But I don't know what it is, okay? I just helped him to have a chance to talk face-to-face with Ruby," I explained to her.She walks past me and sips my smoothie. I pray to God the smoothie can help to soothe her anger."Sweetness." I came closer to her. Christian and Consuela crane their necks following me."Baby, Sweetness. Don'
