Semua Bab A Deal With The Billionaire CEO: Bab 91 - Bab 100

Isabella 92.I had no idea what today was going to bring but I was ready to face it head on. A playful knock sounded on my jaw and I smiled immediately. It was Jackson the joker or Jackie for short. He peeped his head in with one eyes closed."Assistant HR reporting for duty," He said on a robot voice."Come in you goofball," I said with a short laugh and shook my head."And in tow is the delectable Ms. Grace, the event mistress," He added as he walked in.Grace walked in and rolled her eyes. She was weary of his jokes but there was a smile on his face."It's so good to see you boss, It's been hell without you, Grace was mean to me all the time," Jackson complained with fake sadness. It was hilarious."For someone so jacked, you eat like an obese person," Grace said with exasperation.Jackson smiled. "You were totally checking me out if you know I am jacked," He said."Behave yourself," Grace said with a smile."Yes ma'am," Jackson said."You too are a breath of fresh air," I said."P

Isabella 94.I knew that Natalia and I would never get along but I did not intend to hurt her. I wrongly assumed that she was aware of how things ran in her prestigious family. I felt bad for her and it surprised me. I sat on the public bench and table beside the food truck.I had not yet ordered anything because I was waiting for Damien. I had no idea how Natalia was dealing with the news of Damien's past but I genuinely hoped that she was alright.I smiled as soon as I spotted Damien crossing the streets. "Have you ordered anything yet?" He asked as he joined me."I was waiting for you," I told him. We both ordered extra large hot dogs with ketchup and mustard."I like this," He told me as he ate."Yeah, they make good hot dogs here," I said. He chuckled lightly."No, I meant that I like hanging out with you and the scenery is beautiful, with you I feel normal," He said with a smile as he happily looked around.I looked around also and saw what he meant. We looked like casual busine

Isabella 96.It took a while for me to get over the death of my ex. It took days actually. That was a lie, it took more than days. There were times I would be busy going through work, and I would realize that he was dead and a heavy bout of depression would hit me.Sometimes, I would have panic attacks and it would take Damien holding me and whispering soothing words before I got myself back together.I was deep in work when someone walked in. Her perfume hit me nose and I knew who it was. I was actually surprised that she was here. She had been avoiding me ever since I unwittingly blurted out that her mother was a cougar.Natalia sat and made herself comfortable, gazing at me with an blank expression. She had on a peach colored couture work dress and crossed her legs."Please, make yourself at home," I said. I had no idea what she wanted today but she was my boss and the rules were different here. Despite the fact that we were enemies, business was business."I h

Isabella 98.I was lying to myself if I said that I understood what was going on in this conference room. I was even more shocked to realize that the beautifully old lady was Damien's mother. Vague memories invaded my mind as I tried to recall where I had seen her.The smell of apple pie came to my nose and I knew that she made those on the weekends. For the first time, I saw Vito for who he was. In this conference, he had no say. He had been rebuffed twice by his estranged wife and I realized that he almost had no say on this meeting.Was that why he resorted to almost killing me? Because he could not control his wife? Or did he hate women in general. Damien, although looking worried did not seem to care about the meeting.He was more concerned for his mother, because he kept looking at her like she was going to spontaneously combust into flames. It felt so cute to see my husband dotting over his mother."Calm down, son, I promise you that I will not do anything

Isabella 100"Change of plans, we are going straight to the airport," Damien told me as he looked at the screen of his phone as he drove down the highway.I saw my room being torn apart by men in suits and masks."Why are they doing this?" I asked getting angry at the breach of privacy."They think that I have something," He replied replied. "What exactly it is, I am not sure," He added.One of the men spotted the camera and raised his gun. The screen went blank.I watched him put a call to Jackson. "My home has been raided, meet us at that airport," He said as soon has Jackson answered.At the airport, Jackson was anxiously waiting for us. His face was etched with worries. I had no idea why he was here, because he was just the assistant HR for Damien's company."What is going on?" I asked Damien when we got close to Jackson. "Why is Jackson here?" I asked."He is your bodyguard from now on but you have to keep it a secret, he is undercover as an assistant HR to investigate some compa
