Sofia's POVThe past week has been extremely hectic with everyone on their toes due to volume of media attention we have been getting lately since the result from the annual business summit. I have had series of meeting from both Local and international bodies and it's driving me insane at this point. But I have no choice but to attend to my responsibilities and keep the company at the top where it belongs. “Miss Estaban… Here is the file you requested. We have reviewed it with the management team and I can assure you that it's up to date compared to the last one that was submitted.” The head of the accounting department ran after me as I brushed through the hallway with my red heels screeching the floor loudly.“That had better be the case or you all can kiss your jobs goodbye.” My tone was serious and he quickly bowed his head while I stretched my hand so I could get the document.I have soon learnt that in the world of business, there are no rooms for smile unless when I'm trying

Sofia's POVMy lips curved into a sly smug and I scoffed inwardly as the full view of Santoro's face mimicked the perfect version I've been seeing in my memory the past year. Our eyes locked, and Santoro's eyes softened with emotions I couldn't quite place a finger on. I looked away, not wanting to give him any attention. My fist clenched tightly with anger weaving through me. I have finally come face to face with the man who not only tried to ruin my life but made sure I never rose again. My eyes burned with angry tears, and I inhaled sharply, trying to calm down my nerves. I have mastered the art of not showing my emotions, but this feels too raw and I can't seem to hold back.“Let's go…” My voice was cold and still. I turned around, not waiting for Matteo to protest, and dragged him into the hall.“Won't Miss Estaban do us the honour of acknowledging and welcoming the presence of the Mayor's family?” Mayor Eduardo's voice stopped me, and I halted before I could even walk furthe

Sofia's POV“What!” My anger rose to the top hearing him speak like that. And what annoyed me the most is how he can be so composed in the face of a heated argument like this. I wish he would just disappear from here and leave me the hell alone.“You heard me right, Miss Sofia. I'm afraid you can not dismiss me at will.” He repeated, and my eyes crumbled with confusion mixed with anger. “And what in the world is that supposed to mean? The last time I checked, I'm the CEO of this company and not you. And I get to decide who I want to work with.” I reminded him with my teeth gritted at him. “The board already signed a six month contract with my firm, and I'm obligated to complete the consultation. Besides, cutting off the contract will attract legal consequences.” Mattoe tried to scare me, but I wasn't in the least bothered. “We can't let that happen…”“That will bring such a bad effect to the company, and we can't let that happen under our nose.”“We will lose so much money, we can

Matteo's POVI straightened my back with a yawn coming out of my mouth in full force. Ever since I took up the contract at Estaban Global Conglomerate, I've hardly time to sleep and today as usual is one of those days where I will be working late into the night just to be able to meet up with the deadlines of projects and of course the ever demanding CEO, Sofia Estaban.“Sofia..” Her name spread sweetly and I couldn't help but chuckle as my mind drifted towards her. The pen and file in my hands dropped as I reminisced on our first encounter. Of course I knew who she was and didn't bother making an introduction the first time. It was good seeing her in that mode, that way I know exactly what I'm up against. And the look on her face at her party when she walked up to me to introduce herself was absolutely divine. If only I could go back and relieve that moment all over again, I would do anything for that. And I have since then made some research about her, and her past and how she g

Santoro's POVI staggered back and almost tripped, but managed to maintain my balance. “Lucia!” My eyes flickered, but she didn't seem to care as her frown deepened accompanied by a sneer. “You must really think you are anyone important to drag me like that.” She scoffed, driving the attention of everyone present in the party. “You have been flirting with everyone here, and I'm not going to stand for it. You are married, and you should conduct yourself.” I added, and Lucia burst into laughter.“And who the hell are you to tell me that?” She chuckled mockingly, and my mouth dropped open at her insolence. I've known her to always be wild, but she never showed this side of her to me while I was still married to Sofia. “I am your husband, Lucia.” I could no longer stand the humiliation and decided to take a stand against it. She began laughing and some of the men that were beside her laughed as well. “Husband? I didn’t know you were married, Lucia.” One of the politicians made the c
