Giselle's POV :
When I came out of the bathroom, I saw the post it note crumpled on the ground. The tray hadn't even been touched and he left. Geez! Bipolar much? Did he wake up on the wrong side of the bed? I guess he's angry at himself for breaking his 'no drinking' promise that he made.
I got dressed and headed to work. At least I got enough sleep in this job. When I reached there, I greeted everyone and knocked on my boss's door to make him aware of my presence. I knocked, but there was no response, but there was no response, so I walked in and couldn't believe it.
But, my eyes don't deceive me. People do. He was kissing a girl, he was deeply involved in it that he didn't even realize that someone was in the room. I didn't know what was worst. Walking in on him or watching him do it senselessly and carelessly. I want to run away from here, but I can't bring myself to move.

Giselle's POV :Continuation of the phone call,"I loved you Travis, but I realized that it was only as a friend. I loved you truly, but as a friend. I was too blind to realize the difference. But, I got to know about it based on my experiences. By the way, I don't hold a grudge against you Travis. All I feel towards you both is indifference. I just don't care. When I saw you with her, I noticed the glow in your face. I just want you to be happy, but you should have at least had the decency to tell me. Anyways, that's all in the past, I honestly don't care what you or Tulia do. I think you get what I mean.""Wow Giselle, as a friend is a blow to my face, but I don't blame you, because that's what I realized as well. I hope you find your happiness. I'm sure you will Giselle, you are an amazing person.""Thanks Travis. Goodbye."When he said his fa
Giselle's POV :After the meeting was over, Mr. Moon walked up to me and asked me, "So did it work?""Did what work?""Was I successful in wooing you?"I scoffed and said, "I'm sorry, but the only one who could woo me was Joey." Tears were welling up in my eyes remembering Joey."Shit! I didn't mean to make you cry. You must've loved him dearly. What was his last name?""Marcello. Joey Marcello." I sniffed."How did he look?""He looked like a dream come true. His dark and big eyes would immediately make you fall in love with him. The way his golden fur would fly when he ran... ""Don't tell me you're talking about-""My golden retriever. He was my life. That's why I'm afraid of getting another dog."He scoffed and burst out in laughter. After he was done he said,
Giselle's POV :We walked hand in hand to our work place.All eyes were on us. Everyone was shocked. They were baffled that their boss, TITO ARMANIO held a woman's hand.When we went to our floor, he held my face in his hands and said, "I don't want you to get disturbed because of me. I won't bother you till you're done with your work.""What brought this sudden change in you? All this affection and your cold demeanor just vanished.""I'll tell you everything over dinner tonight.""Is that a way of asking me out Mr. Armanio?""I don't ask people out Ms. Marcello. They say 'yes' to me without me even asking."With that being said, he went to his cabin. I went to mine and started doing some work.When the clock struck 8, there was a knock on my door."I think it's about time we had
Giselle's POV :Three months later :Me and Tito have been dating for about 3 months now and I really like him. He's been such a gentleman and I can tell he cares about me.I care for him a lot that it honestly surprises me. I'm not in the love stage yet. But, I'm nearing to it.During our conference meetings, he tells the men to go out of the room if they start flirting with me.I knocked on his door and walked in without waiting for his reply.He had a grim expression on his face. He's been like this for the past week. I've been trying to get it out of him, but I failed to do so. I even asked him if he wanted to leave me, but that wasn't the case either. It pained me to say that, but I just want him to be happy."What's wrong honey? Is something bothering you?""Meet me on the rooftop a
Giselle's POV :I snatched the letter as soon as he signed it."Goodbye Mr.Armanio. I wish you good luck in your life."I didn't let him respond as I went out of the room.I went to the receptionist and collected all my files.I went to my cabin and cleaned out everything.Before I left the office, I went to his room and said, "I left all the files prepared for your next assistant.""Giselle.... I l-"I cut his sentence again, "You appreciate it, I know."He sighed and said, "I do. Will you tell me where you'll go?""That's for me to know and none of your business. Goodbye."As soon as I shut his door, I heard him scream in frustration. A smirk danced on my lips.I bid my farewell to all my colleagues. I didn't really have any work friends, becaus
Giselle's POV:I looked at him quizzically.He raised his as up in surrender and said, "Don't look at me like that. I'm taken."He showed me the ring on his finger.I blushed in embarrassment and said, "I'm so sorry. What's your wife's name?""Carina Rasti. I love her a lot."I chuckled and said, "I can tell.""Anyway, the job is yours.""Thank you so much!""Your work starts from tomorrow. Everyday 8 o'clock sharp. No tardies.""No problem Mr.Rasti."I took my file and left.Celia asked me, "Well...""I got the job."She seemed to be more happier than me. She hugged me over her cubicle and said, "We'll be the best of friends, I can tell."I went back to my apartment after grabbing some dinner and
Giselle's POV:One year later:I became cold and detached throughout the year. I became a master in judo and I'm still on the search for men to join my mafia.Actually, I already got all the men I needed and I was training them by myself. They were all so bloody loyal to me and of course, I was their mama bear. I just needed a right hand man.It took a hell lot of work to find these men. I collected them from around Europe. It was only possible since I quit my job.I was establishing my own company, Inkheart Corp.I was travelling around Europe to find myself business partners and I was lucky that I found my men too. I killed two birds with one stone. My company is doing good so far with a good number of employees. It's quite small, though.For now, it's in Italy, but I will expand my company.
Giselle's POV:Still kneeling down, he said, "They are the real lucky ones to have such a caring leader like you. You act just like their mother. If they're ashamed of having you as their leader, then they're not real men. I've never seen a mafia leader like you.""Okay. Okay. Enough with the cheese, get back in the car. I'm about to puke."After that, Kaun dropped us back to my house.After we entered, I locked the door and showered. After I showered, Venettio showered as well. We both sat on the couch and I said, "Okay, now spill.""Spill what?""You know what I'm talking about."He laughed and said, "Looks like I underestimated you. Kaun blew it, didn't he?"I crossed my arms and waited for him to speak. He huffed and slumped in the sofa."There's a lot to say and there's a lot that you wouldn'
