The big news

"That's a great news, Chloe."

I said and there was a big grin on her mouth.

"I should call Enzo, first."

I said and Cloe handed me the cordless phone, she was holding. But I kept it back on it's place because I wanted to call him from my personal number and for some reason it fascinated me to talk to him on phone, with my personal number. Crazy, wasn't I? I took out my phone from my handbag and was about to call him when the door flew open and Enzo's tall, muscular, beautiful body walked in. There was this formal look on his face which made him look all the more gorgeous. I pushed the thoughts aside. He was only my boss, in a way as he was letting me handle his hotel, nothing else... Right?

He looked at me and said, 

"Congratulations on your first big achievement."

He said and smiled. This time the smile reached his eyes that meant he was genuinely happy. 

"Well, our achievement."

I corrected him and he chuckled. 

"You have make arrangements for their stay and our meeting with Benjamin. Best of luck for that."

He said and suddenly I felt responsible, now everything depended on my work and the arrangement I make for Benjamin Williams. The better the arrangement,the better our bond will be. Although I wasn't why he was visiting Milan and for how long would he stay but everything should be according to what he likes. 

"Make sure the biggest suite of the hotel remains vacant for Williams and I would like you to personally research on likes and dislikes of Benjamin."

I ordered to Chloe and she scheduled it on the tablet device she was carrying. And when she was done she beamed at me. 

"I'll talk to Benjamin's manager and arrange for our meeting."

I told her and she left with a nod. I decided to talk to them tomorrow and before that I needed  to know about how Benjamin liked everything around him. I typed his name on a search engine and soon the home page filled with websites containing his interviews or articles along with his photographs. Seeing him, one can tell he was in his mid fifties and his once muscular figure was now shaped into a saggy skinned body but he wasn't fat. Maybe he still kept check on his exercising and diet and for that I would have to make arrangements in gym and consult our best nutritionist to pay extra attention to Williams's food. 

After reading a few articles about him, I came to the conclusion, he was no different than the rest mafia men and was cruel in a twisted way and it wouldn't be possible for me to handle him without taking help of Enzo. Benjamin said in many interviews, which I read, he doesn't trust women race, they are mere deceptive creatures for him and that was the reason he left his wife after generating an offspring out of her. Disgusting, right? But I have heard enough of these kind of things that I don't get shocked easily. He would have hated me after knowing how I escaped my husband on my wedding night, even if he knew the whole story, then why was he interested in shaking hands with us. He clearly knew that staying at our hotel would mean that he is interested to become friends with us. That's how things worked here. 

After a long day at work, I finally decided to call it off but I didn't want to go back to Enzo's house just yet. I was bored and wanted to just see around. I was in the beautiful city of Milan and the only things I saw yet were,  Enzo's big apartment, The Rexivo Oriental and the neon nights. Well, I would never wanna visit the last place again. Chloe entered the room with her tablet and same professional look on her face. Doesn't she gets bored of maintaining those expressions? 

"You are familiar with the city, right? Can you show me around?"

I asked her without even thinking but I wasn't sure if she would like the idea or not. 

"Yeah sure, what kind of place would you like to see?"

She asked with a smile which wasn't formal but genuine. The sun was about to set and we would not be able to sight seeing, today but I really wished to go out and have fun with a girl of my age, who didn't fake her smile. 

"It's soon going to be dark outside, we won't be able to go sightseeing . How about we go to a good place and have dinner, I am really tired of eating dinner alone everyday."

Even I had to eat lunch alone, in my office. 

"What about Sir Enzo, doesn't he eats with you?"

She asked and then suddenly her expressions changed. I know she was cursing herself mentally for asking this. Maybe she read the newspaper, too to think I and Enzo had any other relation other than business. She was certainly wrong but that wasn't her fault. 

"See it's not like what people think and talk about me and Enzo on our back. We are only business related and Enzo is helping me out because of his own reasons and I am staging at his side because of my reasons, we both are selfish in our ways."

I told her with a smile but she was still tensed. 

"I'm so sorry ma'am. I didn't mean that."

She apologized. 

"I know, Chloe and it really is OK. You are one of the few people I can trust here and you can call me Valerie."

I said and she smiled. 

"Thanks ma'am...I mean Valerie."

She said and we both giggled. 

"What would you like to eat?"

She asked, searching her tab. 

"I would like to have some sea food but we won't get any reservations at this hour."

I told her and she gave me a raised eyebrow look. 

"Oh yes Enzo's name will do."

I said and chuckled.

"No, your name will do."

She said and winked and reserved us seats on her tab. It felt good and powerful that I no more had to use Enzo's name. But not to forget, all these was happening because of him only. We both winded up the files kept on the table. Chloe handed me file on Benjamin Williams, which she prepared after researching on him. What a quick work! This was so impressed. 

"Good work, Chloe."

I told her and she beamed at me. 

The file contained everything about Benjamin, how he liked things around him and what tastes and preferences he had, including his diet plans. Being famous reveals everything about you. Nothing remains private, once the trail of fame follow you. After we were done, we decided to leave for our dinner. 

"We can take our car, Duke will drive is over there."

I suggested as we walked out of the elevator in the underground parking spot and I knew Enzo wouldn't like it if I left somewhere without him or Duke. 

"Yeah, OK. But if we get late, what about my car, how would I take it back?"

Chloe questioned and she was right. She couldn't leave her car here.I called for Duke and after a few minutes, his tall,  muscular figure walked out of elevator. He stood stuff in front of me. 

"I and Chloe have plans for dinner tonight. She can't leave her car here, so I will go with her. You can drive our car along."

I said and in that way our problems would be solved. 

"Okay, but I will drive right behind you."

He said and I nodded then headed towards Chloe's car. I sat on the passenger seat and she drove us to the restaurant. The city was bright and stunning, the talk buildings and the hotels were magnificent. After the drive of twenty minutes, she stopped the car in front of an enthralling building. It was so beautiful and exquisitely decorated. But the Rexivo's dining places were much more luxurious and beautiful. 

"This place is good."

I told Chloe while the aroma of delicious sea food filled my nose and I was taken by it. Duke walked right behind us, and the girls were all looking at him. Yes, he was hot but not more than Enzo. The manager approached us and after greeting me, he took us upstairs to our reserved seats. It was a VIP area with only few tables along and most of them were vacant. We took our seats and after going through the menu, we ordered some, oysters, crabs and fishes. We talked about some stuffs until our order came. The waitress walked towards us and as she came closer, I could see the tall, muscular figure walking behind her.
