ADELINA'S POV

I always knew Mikhail was arrogant. He just insulted the boss whose name turned out to be Mr Winters. It was the first time hearing that surname, well I wasn't associated with the business world

The silence was loud, a part of me was glad Mr Winters didn't get the contract. "Please can you think over? You can't just decide. We have been in the industry for decades." One of the managers intervened. Mr Winters wasn't looking great.

This was a major deal, his company just signed a deal with an automobile company that needed the steel for production. From what I heard Mikhail had monopolized the raw materials. If they didn't get it from him they would have to spend a fortune getting it from the black market.

Cutting their profits low and almost running into losses. Mikhail wasn't bothered by their predicament or the fact this deal would have brought him billions. He always did what he wanted, which gave him his title as a tyrant of the business world

    ADELINA'S POV Would I hate it if he kissed me? That was the question at the back of my mind. His lips looked soft, there was a time all I thought about was how they tasted and taking a taste now would not hurt. He slowly leaned in, and his lips brushed against mine. His hand on my waist, I let him despite knowing this was going to put my life in a more shitty position. I knew if Kim was to miraculously burst in here, I was cooked for real. His hand was on my waist, holding me firmly, while our lips started to dance. He was a good kisser that I admitted. From his hand, I knew his fingers were tempted to roam on my body, but he was holding back. He savoured my lips slowly, the kiss was not deep, but it was possessive and demanding. As much as I wanted to enjoy it, I could not It felt like something was missing, something that made me scared. There wasn't that satisfying feeling I craved or the sparks that lit me up. It just didn't feel the same. I have bee

    ADELINA'S POV This was the second time I had seen Asher lose his temper. Everyone gathered to watch but they were too scared to step forward. If Asher continues he might kill the guy. I didn't know what happened that made him react in such a way but I knew I had to stop him. My feet moved before I could even think, rushing into the middle of the fight. It felt dumb but my instinct worked first. "Asher!!!" I screamed, calling out his name but he was too enraged to hear a thing I was saying. The guy was on the ground, too weak to resist Asher one one-sided assault He could kill him. "Asher, please stop," I cried, grabbing his hand. He went stiff and let go of the other guy's shirt. Having a slim chance of escape, the guy on the floor gathered his remaining strength to scramble away. I didn't even know when I started to cry, but the sight of Asher like that brought back unpleasant memories. It reminded me of the day my brother had beaten an entire group of te

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   110 - Coincidence

    ADELINA'S POV I took the elevator straight to the ground floor instead of the car park since I was going to walk to the bus stop. The elevator was crowded, and a lot of people were clocking out for the day. Today was one of the few days I wasn't working overtime. Everyone was still talking about Lawrence's promotion. Now I understand everything. Lawrence was being transferred to the headquarters for a higher managerial position. That could also mean one thing, he was also from Lunaria . I was curious if, by chance, he was related to Petra because of that resemblance. It wasn't obvious and they didn't look obviously the same. He had the same hairline, nose and some slight features as her. It could just be a coincidence and I was overthinking things. The elevator slid open, and I walked out. I adjusted my bag on my shoulders because I was leaving with the crowd. "Oh my gosh, he is so handsome and rare like the chairman. I wonder what the position is." I heard someone g

    ADELINA'S POV As Mikhail's secretary, technically, I could not get off work before him. I could if he would grant permission for me to leave by the closing hours. I asked Cecilia, telling her that I had an important meeting to attend, and she referred me to take permission from Mikhail when it was time. As much as I hated to face Mikhail to attend a meet-up where Asher would be present, I had to do it for grades. I knocked lightly on the door, and I heard Mikhail's voice from the other side granting me permission to come inside. Spit rolled down my dry throat, and then I pushed the door open. "Good evening, sir," I chimed. Mikhail was at his desk working; it didn't seem like he was closing from work anytime soon. "Evening, Mishka," he replied, calling me that annoying Nickname. "Sorry to interrupt you but I was wondering if I can get off work now," I asked him. He did not take his attention from his work but I was certain he was listening to me. "

    ADELINA'S POV I held my best smile and then left the office. As soon as the door closed, I heard Cecilia chuckle. She tried so damn hard to hide her smile. She knew. My eyes narrowed at her but I didn't say anything. I made the tea all over again. This time, I was careful not to put too much sugar inside. The cream was just right. I grabbed the cup and prayed to the tea gods that this one would end up being fine. "Good luck." Cecilia snickered as I walked past her inside. Why did it feel like she was doing this purposely? My eyes narrowed again, but I did not say anything, then went inside. . He wasn't smoking again, and a curt smirk was on his lips while holding his tablet. Mikhail was still sitting in the lounge area. "I have made another cup as requested," I said then placed the cup before him. He glanced at me before taking a look at the tea. I wasn't a tea person and preferred coffee so I was doing my best here. Mikhail didn't even touch the

    ADELINA'S POV Lawrence was being transferred, so that was what Lydia wanted to tell me about. I had this sudden urge to see him which I didn't understand. Was he still in his office, or was he gone already? Cecilia was already waiting for me. What was I going to do? The elevator dinged and slid open. I walked into the top floor where Mikhail's office was located. After a short walk, I arrived at the office. Cecilia spotted me from a mile away and smiled sweetly. "You must be Adelina," she chimed, welcoming me with a smile. Cecilia recognised me from the few times I had been to Mikhail's office. "Yes, ma'am, Lydia informed me that I will be working under you," I explained the situation to her, which she understood without a hitch. "Yes I know, please place your bag down. We will be sharing a desk for the period, although you might work most of the time in Mr Romanov's office." She explained, Why was I going to be working in Mikhail's office? I pl
