Anna's POV I was still contemplating on telling Alessandro what transpired between Blondie and I when my phone rang. Stepping away from his body, I took out my phone from my pocket. But just before I could pick, the call ended and a message popped in. “So you are fucking your boss.” The message read. I froze.Shocked, I scrolled to the caller's identity.Only to see it was a private number. Who would do this…I hadn't finished thinking when my mind went to only one person that could do it. Without another word, I dashed out of Alessandro's office.“I'm taking the rest of the day off. Inform Tina.” I said to Kiara as I grabbed my hand bag and dashed out. Several thoughts bombarded my head as the elevator dropped me and I nervously flagged a cab down.Arriving home, I saw my door locked as I had left it before leaving for work. But the contract was gone. Someone had taken it. The only one supposed to have access to this house was me. Mom was yet to return since her stay in the

Alessandro's POV Besides my mother and my sister, I had never been worried or concerned about anyone else in my entire life. I swore never to try it again after what happened to me the last time when I was made a fool and my feelings and emotions stomped on like it was worth nothing… by the very woman I gave my heart to.Now, worrying about my sister and mother was all I wanted to do.Or so I thought. Until the moment I saw Anna stare into her phone, panicked and dashed out. In that moment when she ran out of my office, vanished from her desk and wouldn't pick my calls, I completely forgot about my vows. I wanted to go crazy. I knew I should let her take care of her own issues, knew I was never supposed to concern myself with her personal matters. Yet, since the moment she disappeared, nothing had made sense anymore.Even after I closed from work, focusing on anything became impossible. I'd sent her a text to show my concern—something I also knew I shouldn't have done—but gett

Anna's POV “What?”“My… ex b-boyfriend…” I swallowed, instant terror knotting in my belly. Adam had met him. That bastard had met him. God. “Still pretending huh,” he scoffed, his eyes narrowing with thick irritation. “I… what did he say…”Fuck. God, I should have known…When he suddenly started demanding for our contract to end… when the look in his eyes changed…I should have known that the jerk had met him.Alessandro had always said he hated two timers. Now he would think of me as one because I had no idea what that jerk must have told him.“Excuse me.” He shot me a distasteful look, grabbed his phone from the desk and started out of the office. As I watched him strode towards the door, my brain rebooted. What exactly did Adam say?How much did he tell him?Without waiting to think or figure it out, I dashed after him.“What did that jerk say to you?” I blocked his way, my chest panting hard. “You shouldn't listen to him please…” I said, looking into his eyes, my heart

Anna's POV After Adam was arrested by the police, Alessandro led me to his car and we drove away. Luckily, I had evidence of Adam threatening and blackmailing me which I hoped would be enough to keep him away from me.Alessandro also promised to make sure he paid for his crime behind bars.I was exhausted. A lot had happened already. But above all, my heart was filled with gratitude. When I ran to the gate and saw it locked, with Adam glaring his beastly teeth at me, I knew I was trapped. I knew there was no way anyone was coming to save me. But Alessandro had surprised me. Appearing right when I had lost all hope and saw no way out. The fact that I thought he'd been mad at me for days now yet he still showed up made me emotional. I swallowed, tears welling up in my eyes. “Here, drink some water.” He offered.I took it and mumbled “thank you.”Then I stared out the window. At everything yet at nothing. I could not bring myself to think of what could have happened to me if
