|| KATHERINE HARPER's POV || " So, you wanted this job pretty badly, huh?" The familiar voice of the boss surprised me. I raised my chin up to look into his eyes. I gasped in surprise, happiness feathering on my features. Alexander! I mean..Alex.. Alexander was one of the closest buddy that we had in our college days. Like, he wasn't so close to know our family drama but he was pretty close to us, back on that time. I still couldn't believe that Alexander was the head of the XL Company. This morning, I left early to look for a job again. Thankfully, XL had invited me to give an interview after days of rejection. A little part of me believed that Ace was behind all of this. Even though I had the best results, I couldn't manage to get any single job in this city. Isn't it too odd? Alexander smiled big at me. His face was still so well rounded and handsome. He wore those big white glasses which always gave off an aura of scholar. Nothing changed inside him except for his uniform whi

|| KATHERINE HARPER's POV || " May I have your name, Mam?" The guard from the gate questioned me, eying at me suspiciously. I mean, they had every right to do that since they never saw me before. I came to the old house where some old staff members had gathered to pay respect to Ace's mother. After he took me like a cave man, I went to take snacks downstairs. At that time, the house maid told me about the funeral ceremony that no one was attending. I knew that Ace never liked his parents but it was too harsh to ignore someone who had been dead already. The housemaid shared her sorrow about not having any family members to attend the ceremony. I knew that it was useless to request Ace to come here. So, I took the charge in my own hands, and arrived to pay respect in a black satin dress. Ace had no idea about my arrival here. He would be pissed off again but it was nothing new. At least, one of the family members would attend the ceremony. I gave a small smile to the guard before giv

|| ACE KING's POV || " Touch yourself, Lina! Make it hard!" I ordered, barging into her room. She sat up hastily, all excited just to see me. I didn't fuck her ever since I married the woman whom I hated the most. A part of me wanted to give her the traumas that her husband is cheating on her but other parts of my heart feel scared of disrespecting something holy called marriage. After living years under the clutch of abusive parents,I had always told myself that I would cherish my married life. But here I am!! I married the girl that I loved for revenge, giving her the taste of losing a child. Lina appeared excited, nodding her head before getting on the bed to spread her legs. She was always ready to please unlike someone who had an obsession with making me angry. I hopped to the mini bar, fetching a few glasses of drinks to keep myself distracted. Because I had no intention to fuck Lina. All I wanted was to torment the girl, living next to the room. Lina started doing her thin

|| KATHERINE HARPER's POV || " Why are you doing this to me??" I whispered, tears of betrayal forming in my eyes. After a long time, I really thought that someone actually had good intentions for me. But it was all proven a lie when Alex appeared in the spot, fully dressed like a villain. He had never left the town. He wanted to trap me in his evil game. Alex stopped, upon hearing me. His eyes rested on me so cold and emotionless. I didn't see the sympathy in his eyes that he showed me in his office. He looked nothing less than a cold blooded monster. He sneered at me, growling, " You think that I don't know, you are married to Ace King? I have known it from the beginning. That's why, you were there in my office, Sweetheart. Or else.. what do you think that I gave you the job?" It broke my heart to know that he did everything for revenge. I thought that I was finally capable but it seems like, everyone just wanted to use me for their own sick game. Alex continued, hatred lacing ou

|| KATHERINE HARPER's POV || " WHAT DID YOU DO TO ALEX?" I barged into his office room, frustrated and furious. Even though Alex did wrong to me, I didn't want to ruin his life. I wasn't a dog like him. Pretty sure, Ace was behind the plot and game. Natasha chased after me, her piercing eyes on me as he tried to act like a good assistant, " Boss..I tried to stop her but she.." " LEAVE!", Ace blurted, lifting his eyes from the files. He looked charming in his dark grey suit. Subconsciously, I sucked down to my lower lips. He looked hot but he was the devil. Natasha didn't live, only smiled, assuming that Ace told me to get out. Ace furrowed his brows lightly at her, repeating his command, " I told you to leave us alone, Natasha!" Natasha seemed surprised a bit. After a moment of anger, she left unhappily. I didn't know why every girl swam over him like a fly. I mean, he was hot but it wasn't that to the point of going crazy all over him. Ace replied, standing up from his arm ch
