MasukCHAPTER 119Scarlett “Hey babe," I said as he walked to my side of the table and kissed me.“Hi, beautiful. I hope you missed me?" he said.“Yeah, I did. How are you feeling?" “Better than ever. How's work going?" “Great, but Melissa was at Zoe's office," I said, and Aldric looked at me with shock.“What? I mean why?" “I honestly don't know but whatever she's trying wouldn't work around here. And she's lucky I was there. Zoe is crazy," I shook my head.“I know right. You should have left her to handle the situation." “Babe, that was work," I said, looking at Aldric.“Yeah right. So there's an event taking place at the Hotel Dynasty. Will you be coming?" he asked and I just wasn't sure." I don't know.”"Come on babe. Just say yes,” he insisted."No I'm not coming,” I responded." I wonder what I'll tell the media if they ask for you,” he said, looking at me.I could tell he was just trying to get me to change my mind. Lately, I just enjoyed being in quiet places. The event was g
CHAPTER 118Scarlett “Do you think you run the world or something?" I asked since Melissa just seemed to be so filled with pride.“Oh look who's talking now. One of Aldric's pieces. I do run this world dear. I'm not somebody you should even be responding too," she smirked.“Please leave my office," Zoe said looking pissed.“Ahg this place is filled with dust particles. I wouldn't want to spend another minute in here OK." "Yes you wouldn't. I mean why are your heels so muddy?” Zoe clapped back before my eyes fell on Melissa's heels which didn't look like they had been in a neat place.“Don't push it Zoe. You have no idea what I'm capable off okay." “And I'm not scared OK. So don't waste time trying to intimidate me in my own office. Get out!" Zoe said to Melissa."You're going to pay for this and I'll be watching with a smile,” Melissa said and then walked out.The moment she shut the door I looked at Zoe before we both began to laugh at how horrible Melissa's heels looked. It was
CHAPTER 117Scarlett I don't know what Melissa thought of herself but I just wasn't intimidated by whatever she was trying to do. I had already researched her, and the fact that she's from the Mafia family was supposed to be scary, but I just didn't care.“You're wasting your time OK. I don't have time for all this," I said, packing away the materials I used.“You can say that for now, sweetie, but once I'm done with you. I hope you'll remember what you just said OK." "I will now, if you don't mind,” I said, pointing to the door."Don't forget to stay away from Aldric OK. He's mine,” she smiled and then walked out of my workroom.I quickly locked the door and then took a deep breath with my back against the wall. Melissa's aura is so dark. I wonder how one can have such an attitude.I then went to get my phone and dial Zoe's number. I just needed to see her. The moment she told me that she was at the office. I made my way out and asked my chauffeur to take me to the law firm Zoe wo
CHAPTER 116Scarlett I was in the workroom trying to finish the last part of Aldric's suit when Jenny walked in and asked if I needed anything but I was fine so told her to get busy.“I received flowers from Mr. Stone. Would you like me to—”"Ask my security to dispose them,” I looked at Jenny."But ma'am you—”"Should I repeat myself?” I lifted my brows."No ma'am. I'm sorry.”"Now do what I asked you to,” I said before she walked out.I could tell that she was confused since I haven't mentioned a thing about what happened to us. I was honestly just not into receiving. “Scarlett Brown," I heard the voice of the woman that made Aldric run after her.“What are you doing here?" I turned around.“Nothing much I just thought of paying you a visit at a personal level," she smiled.“I don't think I need you so you may just leave." “Not so soon darling. I just thought that you deserve to know who I am and what the hell I could do for Aldric," she placed her purse on the desk."I don't thi
CHAPTER 110Scarlett The past few days have just be so fulfilling. I've found love and are just getting to see a different side of men I've never imagined existed. I didn't know what's going in in Aldric Stone’s head but the amount of love, respect and consistency he's giving me is just out of this world.My room is film with so many gifts and I haven't even gotten a chance to open any. I was about to head to the café when Richard Zoe's ex- boyfriend requested to talk to me.At first I was hesitant but later asked him to join me instead. I don't know what was going in his head but asking me to help him win Zoe back was just impossible. She's already found love in the arms of Miguel. He was genuine and everything Richard could never be.“Are you going to talk to her?" he asked and I wasn't going to lie in my response.“No Richard. Scarlett has already made up her mind OK. Nothing you or I will say can convince her otherwise." “Scarlett please just do me this one favor. I don't wan
