INICIAR SESIÓNDIMITRIOThe meeting ends and I step out of the office building. It’s successful but the shareholders need to trust and no better way to do that than give results and substance.The Andrea international has been able to shift public eyes to Mel, giving them a chance to work through the chaos and probably get back on their feet.I send a text to Mel but she doesn’t respond and I head home immediately. “Melody!” I call out in the mansion but there’s no response. Sullivan doesn’t appear to be home either and I can’t help but be worried. It’s not really safe for her to be going out because of the reporters and people who might want to harm her. The comments on posts have become more savagery towards her, saying she deserves to die for doing that to her sister and her husband. I’m glad I haven’t caught sight of Jonah anywhere, I may not be able to control the impulse to pulverize him at the spot.While I’m standing in my study, I receive a text on my phone. It’s Luan Carper.THE MADA
MEL“I’ll be by your side, madam.”Luan bends and places a kiss on my lips. I’m right. Her personality and looks tell someone who loves girls. She’s just been shy.Her tongue slides slowly into my, twirling and tugging at my tongue.She moves her hands around my body till they get to my breast. Massaging just as gently as they did on my scalp.She pinches my nipple and I let out a soft moan.“Luan.”“You have such a beautiful body, Madam.”My mind trails back to Dimitrio, I imagine his lips on mine. His hands on my body, his voice, his scent.She squeezes my nipples hard, biting down my lip. Restricting my moan from escaping me.“Turn around, ma’am.”I turn around to face her, she swallows hard. Before she claims my lips in another kiss.She’s not bad at all. Luan has a faint scent of flour.Her hands assist my body and I sit on the edge of the bathtub.She comes closer to me, her hands spread my legs open as she kneels down before me inside the water.Maybe it’s the light or the mom
MELThe car stops and slowly I walk into the house. It’s quiet, a normality. Luan stands at the door and gives a light bow when we step into the house. “Welcome, madam. Sir.” I feign a smile and walk into the living room. My eyes search the place, looking to see if Mara is here.“She’s not here yet.” Jonah says, walking up to me and placing a hand on my shoulder.“But tomorrow she will be.” He chuckles.I shrug his hand off.“Luan.” He calls.“Take the lady upstairs, ensure she has a nice bath and prepare her for a nice dinner with her husband.”“Yes sir.” Luan says.Luan escorts me upstairs. I can already perceive the sweet scent of cinnamon and lemon.“The bath is ready madam.”My bare feet hit the floor and the cold marble sends a chill rushing through my body.Luan takes off my dress slowly, her fingers gently scraping my skin. leaving me naked.The bathroom is warm, the tub filled with oils and the water decorated with rose petals.“I might just be convinced that you have a
MEL “Let go, are you crazy?” I muster up strength and push Marcia away.She lunges forward and grabs me, pulling me closer and yelling in my face.I struggle to break free, clawing at her hands.“You think you’re all high up, huh?” She rants.“I don’t have shit to say to you anymore. Let me go!”The waiter and two security guards come towards us.“Please you both need to calm down.” One of the guards says. “I need to calm down?” Marcia yells back at them.“I’ll show you fuckers calm.” Marcia picks up her glass of matcha and drowns it on my face, still holding onto me she lands a hard slap across my face. The guards and everyone watching are too stunned to speak. Electric jolts shoot through my body, intensifying the built up rage I’ve had stored. I grab Marcia with my left hand, making sure to hold her in place before returning a slap back to her face.The slap lands hard again and again. Her cheeks were red and just when I was about to deliver the fourth. A hand catches mine fr
MELMy phone rings and I jolt awake from my sleep. I pick the phone from the side table thinking it’s probably Jonah again. My eyes fly wide open when I see it’s Marcia. She really is fearless, isn’t she?I take the call and put the phone to my ears.“Hi, Mel.”“Cut the bullshit Marcia, what do you want?”“Oh my… I’m just sincerely concerned about how you’re dealing with the news.”“You mean the ones you uploaded?”“Come on baby, it’s my job.”“Your job is to uncover and deliver accurate information, not get bribed into releasing false news and misleading the public.”“A woman’s gotta make money, right?”“You mean make connections, bitch?”Marcia laughs hysterically. Maybe she really has lost her mind.“I’m not the girl married to a family who hates her enough to pin their misdeeds on her.”“Whatever it is you think you’ll gain from Jonah and his family isn’t worth it Marcia. They’ll ruin you.”“No, Mel. You can’t possibly be the one dishing advice when you’re in a concerning situa
DIMITRIOI can’t describe the incredible amount of rage I feel when I see Mel cry. The worst is, it’s because of that crazy Psycho.She falls asleep and I leave for the office. The incident Mel talked about still disturbs me.She never found out who made that call to her. Mel only assumed that since it couldn’t be her parents then it had to be one of the Andrea’s.“Good afternoon sir,” Miss Caroline steps into the office.I nod lightly.“I have the report you requested on Mara Milan.” She slides the document over to me. “What did you find?”“The nuns and workers at the orphanage were able to communicate easily with us.”“Yes, Caroline. Get into the details.”“Yes sir,” she nods.“Mara was found at the Wellspring orphanage doorstep when she was still a month old.”I adjust in my chair. “The cleaner made mention that Mara had an envelope that contained about a thousand dollars worth of cash in her cradle. They said it was used to take special care of her.”“I suppose this was instruct
DIMITRIOI hear a beep from my phone and reach out to grab it. I sigh, feeling a bit exhausted. Since the company was handed over to me by my late parents, I’ve been the sole heir and CEO of Dell's empire.THERE'S A MEETING WITH THE DIRECTORS THIS EVENING, SIR.It’s a message from my secretary. 6
MEL Jonah looks like he’s about to explode with rage. He has always been the one with the upper hand, but tonight Dimitrio steps on it. His ego bruised and anger flaring visibly in his eyes, Jonah turns to me,“Let’s get inside.”He reaches for arm, still trying to maintain his act in front of ev
MELI fold the clothes scattered on my bed as the new maid, Luan, reads out the rest of my tasks assigned by Jonah today.“…and lastly, the boss wants you to attend the business party by 8 PM tonight.”I heave a tired sigh and I collapse onto the bed. I lift my hands and rub both eyes with my index
MEL “How can you say that?” I scream at my mum. “She slept with my husband. In my house, on my marriage bed.” I can’t hold the tears back anymore. “Is that why you tried to harm her with a knife? For Christ’s sake, Mel, she’s your sister,” My mum cuts in. “I didn’t do it. She did it herself.
