When we finally returned back to Lorenzo's mansion, I was feeling both physically and mentally exhausted. The only thing that I wanted to do right now, is to crash into the nearest bed, but Lorenzo had pulled me along with him and said that there was something that he had to deal with again tonight.He was still looking very angry, and now I know that the anger was directed at me which made me even more scared."You should know that you are posing as my significant other and even if it is just an act, you need to play it well… you can't allow tramps like that to step all over you.”I was surprised that his advice actually sounded genuinely concerned instead of just insulting and I nodded, not feeling as berated as I'd expected to be.He had been the one to remind me to keep a low profile at the party anyway.After he told me that, he finally permitted me to go to bed and rest, and as I was at the top of the stairs, I pause hesitantly, deciding that it would be a little rude to just go

BREAKING NEWS: Mr LORENZO DOMENICO’s GIRLFRIEND TRIED TO HARASS MISS LAURA, THE ONLY DAUGHTER TO GOVERNOR MICHELLE MARCUS. IT HAS BEEN REPORTED THAT WHEN MISS LAURA TRIED TO DEFEND HERSELF, Mr LORENZO INTERVENED AND THREATENED HER.Lorenzo’s eyes darkened as he saw the news, it was very obvious that he was going to destroy the news management and whoever had masterminded it.“I need you to find out who got this news released. Before this news goes wide, ask Dave to do everything in his power to take it down,” he said in a low but very authoritative tone to a man dressed in black.“Alright,” the man replied and walked away.Lorenzo stood up and began to head for the stairs, at the other end of the staircase, Mia could be seen walking down.“Have you seen the news going on about me harassing the governor’s daughter?” She quickly asked, not waiting to get to him.“How did you find out about the news?”“The television of course.”Lorenzo didn’t say any other thing until he got to her. “I

Mia’s pov That night, my room didn’t get locked.And, I took that as a good sign. It was my second night in Lorenzo’s main house, and of course, I was still nervous as hell.Heck, I’m always extremely nervous around Lorenzo.I had expected the door to get locked, but now that it didn’t get locked, I’d take that as a good sign.It hadn’t gotten locked last night, but I just assumed that it was because he had forgotten.Or perhaps, he wasn’t going to be treating me like a prisoner here, since apparently, I’m going to be his plus one from now henceforth.I wouldn’t keep my hopes up though. Knowing how fast Lorenzo’s moods change, it would be pretty dumb of me to hope for something good from him.And also because he clearly still hates me because of something which my father had done to him, something which I had no idea of, and technically, I should have no business in.But, Lorenzo didn’t see it like that.I turned around in my bed and tried to get a better position to fall asle

Mia’s pov When I finally exited the bedroom, I hesitated briefly before slowly making my way down the stairs. I glanced down at the shirt I had on to make sure my nipples weren't poking through, like I had done a few times in the bedroom, moments ago.As I slowly walked through the house, and into the kitchen, I glanced around for Lorenzo, and then I let out a relived breath once I was in the kitchen on realizing that he’s not hovering around.The second thing I realized moments later, was that the house was void of any maid. Unlike how the house I had been held in right after I had been abducted was always bursting with maids, this one was completely empty of them right now.I remember seeing a few maids on the day Lorenzo and I had arrived here, and even the day after.Perhaps he had excused them, just so he could have the satisfaction of making me slave for him.The bastard. I let out a long sigh as I glanced around the interior of the kitchen. It looked really slick and

Mia’s pov The word ‘humiliation’ has never applied to me in my entire life like it does to me right now.I wasn’t sure I'd ever want to actually disappear from the face of the earth like I really want to at this very moment. I watched through wide eyes as Lorenzo exited the kitchen without sparing me another look, and shame so intensely engulfed me. My heart was still racing and it didn’t seem like it was going to slow down any moment from now. I glanced down at my cloth, wrinkling my nose at the dirt all over it. My eyes wandered around the kitchen and I let out a long sigh after a few seconds, knowing that I was going to clean up all the mess I had made by mess. Without wasting much time, I decided to get to work, because I know damn well that Lorenzo was going to flip should he come down here once again to realize that I left the kitchen the way it currently is.I let out a long sigh as I picked up the rag next, and as worked, I couldn’t get the thought of what Lorenzo
