Olivia opened her eyes by a quarter and then hurriedly closed them back. The sun's rays were getting into her eyes.
“Oh God,” she moaned as she tried to move but a hand was holding her waist. Her eyes hurriedly flew open. She slowly looked at her body. A male hand was curled around her waist and the most unbelievable thing was that she was naked under the sheets. “What…the…fuck,” she muttered blinking. Olivia tilted her head while trying to remember what had happened last night. Like a broken dam, the memories of last night rushed into her head. She widened her eyes in horror once she recollected all her memories. Olivia slowly removed his hands from her body, and after that, she stood up. She wore her clothes from last night in embarrassment, as she wore her clothes, she had the terrible urge to slam her head on the wall in embarrassment. How could she sleep with a random man? Not only was he a random man but he was one of Louisana’s male escorts. She looked at the man who slept peacefully on the bed. If she remembered correctly, his name was Alexander. “How can a man be this handsome,” Olivia muttered with a sigh. Suddenly Alex’s eyes flew open. “Argh,” Olivia screamed at the top of her voice. She took two steps back in shock. Alex hurriedly stood up and then skillfully tied the duvet around his waist. “Don’t come any closer,” Olivia said through gritted teeth. “Or what?” Alex asked staring at Olivia with a quizzical gaze. To him, it appeared the woman in front of him had finally regained her senses. Olivia blinked. Even if he did step closer there was nothing she could do. She faked a cough, “I’m so sorry if I’m being awkward but it’s my first time being with a male hooker…or should I call you a boy toy?” Alex stared at Olivia in confusion, “did you just call me a hooker?” “Aren’t you one of Louisiana’s men?” Olivia asked staring at him, “If I remember correctly I said I would pay you two thousand dollars for your services.” Alex stared at Olivia, all of a sudden he burst out in laughter. He couldn’t believe his ears, did this lady not know who he was? He was actually amazed by the fact he got tagged as a boy escort, it was simply too funny. Meanwhile, Olivia continued to stare at Alex in awkwardness, she didn’t know why he laughed at her. Was she funny? She sighed, even though she felt embarrassed the man who stood in her front was simply to handsome. There was something peculiar about his hazel eyes. “I have no money now but I can give you my card, you can just simply meet me for your payment,” Olivia said grabbing her purse from the floor and pulling out a blue card. Alex reluctantly collected the card from her hand. “Olivia Hugo, vice CEO of Hugo Corp,” he read aloud. Alex tilted his head, why did her name seem familiar? “You see, I can’t cheat you,” Olivia said gulping, she couldn’t think properly. Why was his voice so deep and gruff? “I’ll pay you back once you call me,” she hurriedly added. Alex stared at the card in his hand in interest. Truth to be told, he could tell her who he was right there and then but his mind told him not to. It would be fun messing with her. Alex couldn’t remember when last he messed with someone for fun. “Okay, don’t forget, I hate being owed,” Alex said with a smirk. It looked like playing with Olivia Hugo was going to be fun. Olivia's jaw almost dropped at the sight of his smile. Chuckling awkwardly she grabbed her shoe from the floor. “It looks like I will be going, see you…or not,” Olivia said then she quickly left the room. She didn’t even wait for Alex to bid his goodbyes. Alex watched as Olivia rushed out of the room. The moment she left, he couldn’t help but chuckle like a madman. He found Olivia to be cute when she was flustered. He looked at the business card he held. “Olivia Hugo,” he muttered while looking at the card. Suddenly his phone rang. With a sigh, he grabbed his phone from the nightstand. He checked the caller ID only to see that it was the secretary that was calling. “Hello Jared,” Alexander said with a relaxed tone. “Good morning sir, I forgot to say but you have an urgent meeting to attend by 9 am,” Jared stated in a calm tone. “Is it the deal with Voltage Limited,” Alex asked looking out the window. “Yes sir,” Jared replied. “Good, pick me up at the hotel, and one more thing,” “What is it, sir?” Jared asked with a curious tone. “I want you to find out everything about Olivia Hugo, the Vice President of Hugo Corp, give me a detailed report from when she was born till now,” Alex ordered with a sigh. “Okay sir, by tomorrow the report shall be on your desk first thing tomorrow morning,” Jared replied. Humming, Alex hung up. He looked at the business card he held once more. Getting entangled with Olivia was going to be fun.Valentina began to sob. The men who had been defending Valentina began to look at her in suspicion. Olivia smiled the moment she noticed the unwavering trust they had for Valentina crumbling little by little“Give her the phone Valentina, she’s telling the truth isn’t she?” Felix asked as he gazed at Valentina with an expression full of disbelief.“I can explain,” Valentina said as she continued to sob but she didn’t say anything.Olivia watched with a smile as their expression turned ugly. It was clear they didn’t believe her anymore.One of the men removed his hands from Valentina.“Brother,” Valentina called with a sob but the man sneered then walked away in anger.Frowning, Alex held Valentina arm then he collected Olivia's phone.“You are hurting me,” Valentina cried out loud but that only made him tighten his grips around her arm. Alex knew that if he squeezed her arm a little more then her bones would crack.“Stay away from Liv,” he warned as he glared at her. Valentina cowered
Alex stared at the men who defended Valentina in irritation, these men claimed to be a formidable force in the business world yet they couldn’t see the through the tricks of the woman they defended. He shook his head, they were still wet behind the ears.“What do you mean she almost killed Olivia,” one of the men asked in shock, “ I find it quite unbelievable, Valentina would never hurt a fly.”Olivia burst into laughter, “I wonder what you would think when I tell you what my sister has been up to for the past few days.”Olivia could tell them that her sister had been sleeping with Felix but she didn’t, now was not the right time to expose such a big secret.“I don’t want to hear it, you are framing her again,” another one of the men said. Alex raised an eyebrow when he noticed that one of the three men just watched them bantering. The man was a red head and he did nothing to defend the so called saintess, in fact, the red head look bored out of his mind.“Your so called saintess, fed
“I thought I told you I quit,” Alex responded as he briefly glanced at Olivia. She stared at him with an emotion he couldn’t recognize then she looked away.Alex smirked, he knew she was suspicious and he was in no mood to dispel her suspicions.The truth was, he didn’t become Olivia’s secretary just because he wanted to be with her at all times. If he wanted to stay with her then he would have arranged other means rather than becoming her secretary.The thing was Olivia’s father, Mr. Richard Hugo, was treading in murky waters. A batch of his weapons had been stolen from his company and then a counterfeit product turned up.He would have ignored it if the counterfeit weapons were useful but any soldier or person who used them was doomed to die.The weapon was weak, when the gun was fired, the bullet would bounce back therefore killing the owner of the weapon.What was worse was, they sold the weapons under the pretense that his company made them.He suspected that Mr. Hugo was just
Olivia stared at Alex through the office binders. Alex was a distraction.She placed her hands in between her palms with a groan. How could he look so hot in his suit and to think he wore golden rimmed glasses.Olivia raised her head, she frowned when she saw a lady talking to Alex. She raised an eyebrow in surprise, she recognized that lady.It was Lia. Lia wasn’t a bad person but she was just too blunt and straightforward. Alex raised his head to look at Lia, his lips curved into a small smile.Olivia immediately stood up. Picking up her iPad from the executive desk, she walked out of the office.“Alex we have a meeting to attend to,” Olivia said the moment she stopped in front of his desk. She noticed that Alex lips had curved into a loop sided grin.She arched an eyebrow, it looked like he was studying her every move.What on earth is he thinking?Olivia thought as she stared at him thoughtfully,“Okay boss,” Alex said, then he stood up. He turned to Lia who watched their interact
Olivia stared at Alex like he had muttered complete nonsense, her mouth hung open as she tried to comprehend what he had just said.“What did you say?” Olivia asked as she stared at Alex with a confused expression.“I said I’m your new secretary” Alex repeated as he stared at Olivia with an amused grin.“My office now,” Olivia said as she spun around and hastily walked towards her office.“Good morning Miss Olivia,” Everyone in the office greeted. Olivia simply dismissed them with a wave. Alex followed Olivia with a small grin, he sincerely wondered what she wanted to say to him. Would she tell him to quit his job? He shook his head, there was no way he was going to quit.“You are joking right?” Olivia asked the moment she locked the door behind her. Alex shook his head.“I’m dressed in a suit, do you really think I would dress up like this just to prank you?’ Alex asked with an eyebrow raised. Olivia nodded, he was right.“Okay since you work as my secretary, just pretend we just me
Jared immediately went down on his knees, he couldn’t go to Area Dars, that place was a war zone. Anything could kill him. He could get shot by a stray bullet or worse he might get bombed. Jared shivered at the thought of getting bombed, he hadn’t even met the girl of his dreams. He was too young to die.“I was just talking nonsense boss, of course you know what is best for the company,” Jared pleaded. Alex simply stared as his secretary in amusement, a self satisfied smile tugged at his mouth.“Apology accepted, is there a way to make me her assistant?” Alex asked as he gazed at his secretary.Jared sat on the couch then he began to work on the laptop on with him, “I’m not sure, according to what I see here, her secretary did resign but they’ve already chosen a candidate.”Alex scrunched up in thought his face in thought,lips pursed, he asked. “I don’t care just make me her secretary by any means necessary.”“But sir-“Jared, that was not a request, it was an order,” Alex stated as
