Semua Bab THE REINCARNATION OF THE ASSASSINATED HEIRESS.: Bab 31 - Bab 40

“I am Violeta, your personal assistant. Violeta Miller.”I nodded my head as I fully settled in my seat and then bored my eyes on the glass plate and then my name that was imprinted on it.The CEO, Lyra Henderson.“Hi, Violeta,” I tore my eyes off the plate and then looked at her.The hiring team had hired her and I had a virtual interview with the women they chose and Violeta was my choice.“So, what is it for today?”“I have drafted your schedule for today, and the first on the list is the meeting with the executives. It starts in thirty minutes,” she said and I glanced at my wrist watch.“You have a meeting with the CEO of B‘n’B cosmetics by 11PM. There is also a meeting with…”“One step at a time, Violeta. Okay?” I chuckled and she smiled back.“Yes, ma’am. I’ll be in my corridor over there. Please, reach out to me when you need me. Here is the paperwork that needs to be sorted out. I’ll come to you in thirty minutes for your meeting.”I nodded my head and watched as she exited th

“You do too much, don’t you?” Lyra breathed out as she settled on the chair Mason pulled for her and then dropped her bag on the table.“It’s never too much, princess,” he chuckled as he settled in his seat.The waiter arrived after a few seconds, took their order and after he left, Mason pulled closer and then asked, “What time will you be done at work today?”“Six.”He nodded his head and then fiddled with the key in his hand.Their order arrived, and in silence, they started to eat.They hadn't eaten for long before Lyra raised her head and then asked, “How is it going?”“What?”“You mentioned that you’ve started an investigation regarding Kevin. I wanted to know if you found anything?”“Is there anything you wanna know?” He asked and she breathed out.Lyra sat upright, crossed her legs, and then answered, “There is someone behind them.”“You knew that too?!” He exclaimed, and then sat upright too.“Why that reaction?” Lyra raised her brows in suspicion.“N… nothing.”“Are you hidi

“I have a business of my own, grandfather. It is exhausting on its own. I do not intend on joining yours, too.”He smiled and nodded his head, turning his head to look at my mother.“You won’t have a choice later on. I am giving you the opportunity to choose.”“And, I am saying No,” I said.“He is still as stubborn as ever, really,” my eldest brother chuckled as he stood up, and moved over to me.“Listen,” he dropped his hand on my shoulders.Lorenzo was ten years older than I am , and perhaps if he had grown to be the brother anyone would want to look up to, he might have easily taken up our father’s space in my life.“Just take up the offer while you can… while he still gives you the chance. You know he doesn’t always give so many chances. You should be glad you are having a chance to choose.”“Which I did already.”“You’re choosing wrong.”“How is it choosing when you all are imposing what you want on me?”“You still think you’re the strong person from years ago? Do you not have th

Stepping out of the company, Lyra smiled softly as she found her assistant waiting outside the company and she looked around to see if the driver had pulled the car to the front.“Do you mind if I give you a ride?” She asked.At that moment, a car stopped in front of them and Lyra breathed out.It was Mason’s car.“It’s alright, ma’am. My fiancé is coming to pick me up. He is almost here,” she answered and she nodded her head.The door pushed open and Mason got out of the car, walked over to the other seat, and then waved his hands at her.Lyra nodded her head at Violeta, “I will see you tomorrow.”“What are you doing?” she snapped her brows together as she stepped into the car the man held open for her and then shook her head.Without saying a word, he closed the door and then walked back to the other side.Settling behind the wheel, Mason smiled softly, and then smacked. “Are you happy to see me?”He had dropped her at the company here after they finished lunch which was about a cou

I turned around swiftly and watched as he leaned back in his seat rather comfortably, smiling victoriously like he had the upper hand now.“What?”“I know you heard me for the first time. Sit down and let’s talk.”“What do you plan to do?” I asked him instead, standing so close to him.“I just told you someone asked me to kill your wife and your first question is what I plan to do and not who has ordered the hit.”Mason walked back gently to his seat, pulled up his pants, and then settled down.“It’s not like you’re one to disclose your client that easily,” I said, my hands clasped together while I bore my eyes on him.He sat upright, chuckled, and then pointed the stick of a cigar in his hand at me, “You… you are a very smart fellow.”He put off the light of the cigar and then dropped it in the tray.“Someone requested me to kill the wife you married just a couple of weeks ago. Does that news not faze you?”“What do you intend to do, Xandro? Are you taking the job?”“Why not?” He bur
