Mag-log inI was shot in the chest, blood trickling from my mouth. And the one who held the gun…was the man I loved. I crumbled beside Nancy, my maid, who was shot clean in the head while trying to protect me. If only second chances existed…I’ll make them pay. Then darkness swallowed me. Waking up, I found myself alive and a man of devilish allure sitting next to me. “Marry me and watch them pay for their sins.” I took his hand, agreeing to his demand with one goal: revenge. I would make each and everyone beg for mercy. Hold on dear family, my sweet revenge has just begun.

The sound made my chest squeeze painfully. Diana stood up, revealing her perfect hour glass shape. “Did you like my gift?”The smile on his face deepened. “No I didn’t like it,” Klaus replied. “I loved it.”My nails dug into my skin, trying to ease the ache. They interacted naturally, like they had known themselves forever. For once in my life, Klaus actually seemed like a normal person. He wasn’t the cold CEO, neither was he the man everyone feared. He was just…warm, unusually warm towards her. Klaus didn’t even glance at me, completely occupied in his conversation with Diana. I felt invisible, completely ignored. Then, Diana’s gaze shifted to me. I could swear I saw something flicker in her green eyes, but it vanished so fast that I thought maybe I had imagined it. “So it’s true,” she muttered. “Klau
Alice’s POVKlaus kept staring at the toy and smiling.The more I looked at him, the more my chest ached.“So today’s your brithday?”He finally tore his gaze from the toy, his eyes meeting mine. “Yeah.”“Will you celebrate it?”Klaus shrugged. “Alice, it’s not a national holiday. It’s just like every other day.”“No it’s not,” I said. “Why will you even say that? Everyone deserves to feel special on days like this.”Silence.He looked at me, a flicker of emotion flashing in his eyes. What can I gift him? He has money, and any luxurious thing I can think about. Alice, think. This is even harder than I thought. Suddenly, an idea popped in my head. I stood up from the dinning table. “Well, that changes from today.”He lifted his head. “What do you mean?”“Get up.”Klaus raised his brows. “Excuse me?”“You heard me clearly.”“Since when did you start ordering me around?”I sighed. “Please get up, Klaus.”He narrowed his eyes. “That’s too formal.”I rolled my eyes. Classic Klaus. “Ple
Alice’s POVThe ride back home was peaceful. The atmosphere even seemed a bit…romantic. I couldn’t help but steal glances at Klaus. He looked even more handsome and charming today. His dark brown hair that was a bit messy from exhaustion fell on one side of his face, adding more allure to him. My heart pounded fast in my chest as I stared at him. “What?” He asked. “Is there something on my face?”My face burned. “No…nothing.”“Or you’ve finally realized your husband is the most handsome man alive. Huh?”I rolled my eyes.“Pfff. Dream on.”“Wait, so you mean you’ve actually seen a better good looking man than me?”I didn’t reply because I couldn’t. If I told him the truth, it would fuel his ego. “Tell me,” he said, coming closer.“Don’t tell me it’s Michael,” he laughed. “Even a blind woman can see he’s not at my level.”“Michael isn’t the only handsome man I know, okay.”“So tell me, who’s the man able to catch your eyes?”A smile formed on my lips as I folded my arms. “I won’t tel
Alice’s POV The moment her gaze landed on Klaus, she smiled brightly as if she had just won a lottery. “Good morning Mr Gambino,” she said sweetly, her gaze lingering for too long. Klaus didn’t even glance at her. Instead, he turned to one of the employees. “Adjourn the 10 am meeting to 11. I have other matters to attend to.”“Yes Sir.”The smile on her face froze. She cleared her throat, flinging her black wavy hair. “Mr Gambino, I’ve prepared the account reports you requested for.”Still nothing. Klaus didn’t even bother to look at her direction. “Good,” he said flatly. She blinked, her fingers tightening around the document she was holding.“Alice, come,” Klaus whispered softly, as he guided me forward with his hand on my back.Her face flushed with embarrassment. For a moment, I almost felt bad for her. Then, she glared at me. “I didn’t know Mr Gambino was bringing guests today.”Silence. My brows rose. Before I could say a word, Klaus finally looked at her.
