"First of all, we need to be very serious," Darlington said. His voice was loud and clear in the quiet room. "Everyone in this room needs to work harder than ever before. Because of the bad things that happened lately, the people who give us money—our investors—are getting scared. They are having second thoughts about our company. Our stocks are going down, and we are losing money."

He slammed his hand on the table, and everyone jumped. "We cannot afford to fail. We cannot lose. So, there wil

  • The Seduction Contract    chapter 57

    Freya shook her head. She said quietly to herself, “Well, anyway, that’s not important right now.” She pushed the thoughts about Natalie away. She needed to find the missing file. She kept searching everywhere in the office.She looked up at the big clock on the wall. The time was moving fast. She realized she did not have much time left. Kelvin would come soon. She felt tired. After searching every shelf, every cabinet, and every corner, she sat down in Darlington’s big chair to rest for a moment. Her eyes moved around the room again.Then something caught her attention. The clock on the wall looked strange. It was not straight. It hung a little crooked. She stood up slowly. She walked closer to the wall. She reached up and touched the clock. Carefully, she turned it anti-clockwise — to the left.Suddenly, a loud click sound came from the wall. A big hidden box slid out from behind the clock. The box was metal and shiny. A soft electronic voice spoke from inside it. “Mr. Knight, plea

    Freya left the bathroom. Her body still felt hot from what happened earlier. She took a deep breath and tried to calm down. She walked back to the coffee area. She asked two staff members where to get fresh coffee. They showed her the machine and gave her a new cup. The coffee smelled strong and warm. She carried it carefully so it would not spill again. When she reached Darlington’s office, she knocked softly. She opened the door and went inside. Darlington was sitting at his big desk. He looked busy with papers. Freya put the coffee cup on his desk very gently. She said, “Here is your coffee, sir.” Darlington looked up for only one second. He did not smile. He said in a flat voice, “Thanks.” Then he looked back at his papers. He tried hard not to look at her eyes. He moved some files around on the desk. He acted like she was not even there. Freya felt strange. She noticed he was avoiding her. Her heart felt a little hurt. She turned to leave the room quietly. But before she reac

    Darlington pulled Freya even closer to his body. Her soft breasts pressed hard against his strong chest. He could feel her heartbeat — fast and excited — through her thin shirt. He looked deep into her eyes for one second. Then he leaned in and kissed her with full passion. His lips covered hers completely. His tongue went inside her mouth slowly at first, then deeper and faster. They kissed like they could not stop. Their breaths mixed together. His hands held her face gently while the kiss grew wilder and hotter. After a long minute, he pulled back just a little. His lips were still very close to hers. He whispered in a low, rough voice, “Do you want this, Freya?” She looked up at him. Her cheeks were red. Her breathing was quick. Softly, she answered, “Yes.” They started kissing again right away. This time even more hungry. His hands moved down her back. He pressed her body tighter against him. She could feel how hard he was — his excitement pushing against her stomach. The kiss

    Darlington was very angry. He looked at Freya and shouted, “Why do you always find an excuse every time you do something wrong? I saw you with a guy you just met. He was not wearing a shirt! And all you can say is ‘I’m jealous’? Are you crazy? What really happened?” Freya took a deep breath. She did not want to get Natalie in trouble. This was her very first day at work. So Freya spoke calmly and said, “The coffee I was bringing to you spilled on my shirt by mistake. It made a big wet spot. Then he saw it and offered to help me. He gave me his own shirt to wear so my wet shirt could dry. That’s all that happened. Nothing else.” Darlington’s face turned red. He asked in a loud, angry voice, “Did he touch you?” Freya shook her head quickly. “No,” she said. “Calm down. I wasn’t going to let him touch me.” Darlington still looked worried and mad. He said, “What if he used force? What if he tried to hurt you and I wasn’t there to protect you?” Freya smiled a little. She replied, “Chil

    Freya was crying on the floor, feeling like her world was ending. But suddenly, the big door swung open. It was the Supervising Manager. His name was Lech. He stopped and stared at the floor. He saw the torn clothes. He saw the black marker. He saw Freya’s sad, wet eyes. "Stop this right now!" Lech shouted. His voice was loud like thunder. He rushed over and helped Freya get up from the cold floor. He stood in front of her to protect her. "What is going on in this room? Why are you hurting this girl?" Natalie stood up and tried to act like she was doing nothing wrong. She put her hands on her hips. "Oh, we are just welcoming her," Natalie said with a fake smile. "She is the new assistant secretary, and we wanted to show her how we do things here." "Welcoming her?" Lech asked. He was very, very angry. "You welcome her by writing mean words on her face with a pen? You welcome her by tearing her clothes? This is not a welcome! This is being a bully!" He stepped closer to Natalie. "Yo

    "You are a very naughty girl," Natalie said. She looked like a mean monster. "I am going to teach you a lesson today. I am going to make you feel very, very sad. I want you to feel the pain I felt when you took something that belonged to me!" Freya felt like she wanted to cry, but she tried to be brave. "I did not do anything bad!" Freya said. Her voice was shaking. "I did not steal anyone. Darlington chooses who he wants to be with. It is his choice, not mine. I... I..." Freya started to stutter because she was so scared. "Really?" Natalie asked. She made a very mean face. "Then why were you standing so close to him in his office? Why were you acting like you liked him so much just a few minutes ago? I know what you were doing!" Freya’s eyes went wide. She was so surprised. "Me? I was not doing anything wrong! We were just talking!" Stella stepped closer. She looked like she was having fun being mean. "Be quiet!" Stella shouted. "I saw you with my own eyes! You are a big, fat lia

    Freya stood very still. She did not move a muscle as she stared down at the paper on the Mr grant palms in front of her. She looked at the ink and the lines for a long time. Her mind was racing, and she thought about every choice she had. After thinking for what felt like hours, she whispered to he

    WHAT??" Freya shouted. She quickly rubbed her hand across her mouth to clean it, feeling embarrassed. "Don’t flatter yourself! I am not looking at you," she said quickly, trying to look away. Darlington didn't say a word. He grabbed a towel and tied it around his waist. He wasn't wearing a shirt,

    "Yeah, about that, Freya..." Dr. James started, his voice heavy with a tone she knew all too well. "You know the surgery shouldn't exceed next week. We are running out of time. If we don't get her into the theater by then—" "Stop, Doctor," Freya cut him off, her voice trembling. "Just stop. Please

    "What do you want, Mr. Grant?" Freya asked, her voice steady despite the fact that she was pinned to the hot asphalt by two of his men. She stared up at him, her eyes burning with a fearlessness that seemed to surprise him. Mr. Grant threw his head back and laughed, a mocking, dry sound that sent
