Mag-log inFORMAL NOTE TO MY LOVELY READERS
Being the daughter of an important person like Jason Rodrigues was no easy feat… at least that was what everyone thought whenever they looked at Camilla Rodrigues.
They thought that she had it all and there was nothing in the world that would ever change that.
Camilla on the other hand wanted something more than the title of her father. She loved him, never forget that but she also wanted something more for herself that did not involve his name and his title.
She walks into a room and everyone whispers… they are nice to her because they all want something from her father and they think she is in the right place to put in a good word for them.
She had no friends… who would want to be friends with the daughter of a billionaire with no strings attached? It just wasn’t possible.
Camilla wanted more and that was what drove her into the hands of Nathan Clark, her father’s only competitor.
Nathan was everything that her father disliked and even more so, he was freedom to her.
She only had to get him to accept her working for him and the only way she can do that is by making sure he had no idea who she was.
That was totally impossible however so she decided to go to him with a proposition.
THE BILLIONAIRE’S FOREVER CONTRACT IS BACK; BETTER AND MORE INTENSE AFTER TWENTY FULL YEARS WITH THE FIRST DAUGHTER OF ELIZABETH AND JASON RODRIGUES.
SNEAK PEEK INTO THE LOVE STORY CAMILLA RODRIGUES AND NATHAN CLARK
“I want to know what the fuck you think you are doing, waltzing into my office knowing fully well that I do not do business with your family” Nathan snapped as he glared at the woman in front of him.
She was stunning… I mean she had to be with a father like Jason but that meant nothing to him because Jason was an enemy and one thing he never did was frolick with an enemy.
“I have a business proposition for you, Mr Clark” Camilla announced, taking a deep breath.
The man sitting before her was fucking grumpy and quite intimidating but there was no way in hell she was going to allow him scare her after she had thought about this for a really long time. He was the only one who could help her and she had to make sure he accepted her proposal.
“There is nothing you have to say that I want to hear, Miss Rodrigues and I don’t know how you got past the security but I will make sure to fire them after you leave” He threatened.
“Please just listen to me” Camilla muttered, her voice rising an octave.
“Are you in trouble with the law? If you are, I am sure your father and the rest of his family can figure out a way to get you out without it directly involving me”
“I am not in trouble with the law; this is a business proposition and I would like for you to hear me out” She snapped, her eyes glittering with anger.
Nathan stared hard at her, taking in the sweep of her hair in a bun and the way she had carefully selected her clothing. She was dressed professionally but that did not stop him from envisioning her naked which infuriated him more than he cared to admit.
He wanted nothing with this girl but he could not bring himself to discharge her immediately.
“What proposition do you have for me?” He finally asked.
He watched her smile, revealed dimpled cheek before advancing to where he sat and placing the file she had been holding in front of him.
“What is this?” He snarled.
“I want to work for you, Mr Clark and before you outrightly refuse… I want you to go through what i have outlined in that document. You will see that I can be a useful addition to your company.” she recited.
“I am not going to allow the daughter of my competitor to work for me” He told her
“Right now, I am Camilla and…”
“You are a Rodrigues” Nathan corrected.
“Mr Clark…”
“No” He interrupted
“I need your help… please do not refuse me. This is the only way I could come up with to make some name for myself without my family’s backing” She told him, her eyes pleading with him to reconsider his stance.
He understood her; he too have been trying to make a name for himself without his family and the only difference between them was that hers were rich while his were rat poor.
“On one condition” He declared
“Anything” Camilla breathed.
“You will not only work here as my personal assistant but you will also be my housekeeper” He smiled at this.
This was going to be very interesting indeed and he could not wait to see the look on Jason’s face
“I accept” She muttered without even thinking about it.
“You are hired then, Camilla” He told her.
“Thank you so much, Mr Clark…”
“Nathan” He corrected
“What?”
“The name is Nathan; if we are going to be working together in such close proximity then you should call me by my given name, Camilla”
Camilla took a sharp breath at this; she wondered if she had done the right thing with this man but she could not go back now, could she?
She smiled and nodded, putting out her hand for a shake.
She resisted the urge to scream and snatch her hand back when his closed over hers because she suddenly felt butterflies in her stomach and heat sear her outstretched hand as he shook her.
Nathan Clark was as dangerous a man as he was a boss and she had just given herself to him on a platter.
Great Job, Camilla.
Welcome back my dear readers
CAMILLATwo things struck me as soon as my eyes opened in the darkness.One… I had been kidnapped.Two… it had to be Leila.I was stuck in a room that smelled like the boot of a car filled with unwashed gym shoes and my head was pounding furiously.Whatever they had used to knock me out was still in full effect because my body felt like soft jelly.When the door opened, I recognized Leila immediately.I had met her once when Nathan and I visited Sarah’s but it was hard to forget what she looked like.“You are awake. I was scared for a minute that my boys had somehow killed you”I said nothing.I knew what she wanted.It was obvious this was not about me and I was just a cog in the machine of a much larger issue between her and Nathan.“Do you want me to get anything to eat… drink?”I did not respond.If she thought because I was tied up in this chair then she had the advantage, she was sorely mistaken.I could see the anger flash in her eyes at my silence but it was gone immediately.
NATHAN“I really do not want to do this” Ray muttered for the umpteenth time that morning and I ignored him as usual.Immediately Camilla had walked out with Denver, I began preparations to go to the vineyard.First I did call Christian and I told him my plan which he confirmed was a terrible idea.“What if it is a trap? What are you going to do then?”“It is not a trap if she has no idea I am coming” I answered.“But you don’t know that she has no idea. I do not trust this Ray person as far as he can be thrown. You need to be careful, Nathan. What does Camilla have to say about your little escapede”I was silent for a bit which told him all he had to know.“She has no idea about it, does she? You are going to run off to danger and she does not know?”“I am trying to save her, Christian. This is my fight and involving Camilla will only put her in harm’s way. I need to figure this out myself one way or another and this is the best course of action”“It is not the best course of action a
CAMILLAIt was decided that Denver and I would visit the town council together and have Dexter invited too for the meeting.When I came downstairs, Nathan was already seated by the dining area near the window with coffee in front of him that looked untouched.The morning light cut across his face and made him look far too composed for a man who had spent part of the previous evening threatening to kill someone.Denver sat opposite him, reading through something on his tablet with a permanent frown etched across his face like sleep had not improved his mood in any way.Hannah moved between tables with breakfast trays, carefully avoiding all three of us and still looking guilty no doubt for her part in the mess we were in now.Nathan looked up first when he saw me and smiled which immediately made me suspicious.“Morning, debutante.”I stopped at the table and narrowed my eyes.“Why are you smiling like that?”“Like what?”“Like someone hiding a body under the table and trying to stop m
NATHANAfter the meeting with Denver who had decided he was going to be staying after all and that he would have words with the town council on why the project and agreement with them was not going well. I decided to resume my questioning of Ray.I found Hannah immediately and she confirmed she had kept Ray in a room.“Where?” I asked.She seemed skeptical in telling me and was instead looking over my shoulder no doubt for Camilla who was the one person she believed could stop me from flying off the handle.“I really do not want to ask again”.“He is already battered enough and…”“I need just five more minutes with him. I want him to do something else for me”Hannah nodded and led me to the room she had stashed Ray in one of the smaller guest rooms near the end of the corridor.He was sitting at the edge of the bed and the second he saw me, he bolted upright so fast, his eyes wide with panic.“Jesus…”“Relax, Ray… he only just wants to talk, that is it”Ray did not look like he believ
CAMILLARay was tied up on a chair in Nathan’s room by the time I had propelled myself inside.Where the hell had he gotten a rope? I thought, mid panic.“Nathan”He held a hand up, silencing me.“Ray was just telling me how he met with Leila” He said.I turned to Ray who was already sporting a bruised lips.He looked terrified.“I do not know what you are talking about and this is not legal. I will have you reported to the cops and I will sue you to one inch of your miserable…”His words were cut off when Nathan’s fists slammed into his jaw, snapping his head to the side.The sound cracked through the room so loudly that I physically flinched.“Nathan!” I shouted.Ray groaned, blood spilling properly now from the side of his mouth.Nathan flexed his fingers once like he had merely swatted away a fly.Then he looked at me with cold eyes.“I asked him one simple question,” Nathan said evenly. “How the hell did he meet her and what else do they plan to do”“You cannot beat answers out o
CAMILLAI could not believe what I was hearing.“What did you do?” Nathan asked calmly only he was anything but calm judging by the way his palms were now in fists by his side.“I had no idea who you were when we were approached by a woman. She simply introduced herself as Leila and offered us some money and that she would reach out when it is time to do the job.”“Who else is in on this?” I asked.I placed a hand on Nathan’s arm and felt him flinch.“Dexter and Ray… just them and of course us. That is all I know of.” she turned to Nathan, her eyes pleading.“I am really sorry. I needed the money and it wasn’t until you both arrived that I decided to find out who you both were and realized. I told Ray I was out and did not want to involve myself in whatever she has planned. I even returned the money to him and asked him to inform the lady. I should have known he would still do this”Nathan exhaled slowly, leaning away from Hannah.I watched him run his fingers slowly through his hair a
