''Sir. Miss Valerie has arrived at the apartment residence you want." Depson came to see a man who was busy with a pile of files in his office.
A cold face with siren eyes that often made others feel afraid to speak, let alone to approach Arthur Davidson. A man who is 32 years old is quite mature for a successful and handsome man, isn't he? But approaching Arthur is not as easy as turning the palm of your hand. All women should sigh in disappointment because Arthur already has a fiancée who is in New York at the moment. The engagement even happened when they were teenagers.It could be said that even if they got married, it would only be a company wedding. Arthur took off his glasses and placed them on the wooden table. He stretched his head until it made a sound. Arthur had been working too long. ''Good. Your next task is to drop her off and pick her up when she goes to work. Did you tell him what the company's requirements are? I don't want her to come to the company in revealing clothes like the bitches who worked as my secretaries before.'' Arthur looked at Depson with his sharp gaze. Because Depson had previously recommended a secretary who did not want to work for him but, instead, seduced him by dressing like a prostitute. ''Yes, sir. I have ensured that Miss Valerie will not dress like that.'' Depson sat down and walked out of Arthur's room with a calm breath. He had not made any mistakes that could earn him the Lion King's wrath. After Depson left the room. Arthur immediately returned his gaze to the large monitor screen in front of him with a wide smile. When he heard the name of Valerie, who had unwittingly stepped closer to him—it's just that Arthur didn't want to show those happy feelings in front of others—what were you thinking? Did Arthur fall in love at first sight? Of course not! Arthur never fell in love with a woman. He only wanted Valerie as his puppet. Arthur knew very well that a man wouldn't play with dolls, but he liked them for a very long time in his life. Arthur bought them with money and spoiled them with treasure and pleasure. So what was the problem? The problem was that they were not allowed to have feelings for Arthur, let alone make the fatal mistake of getting pregnant. ''Very beautiful.'' Those were the words that came from Arthur's lips when he saw the movements of Valerie, who was wearing a casual shirt while enjoying bread at the dining table. Arthur was not a stupid man! He had installed some CCTV cameras in every corner of the apartment Valerie was currently living in—one thing that Arthur had only done to a woman named Valerie; Arthur had never done this to a doll before. If Valerie had agreed to the deal by now, Arthur would have jumped in, lived in the same apartment as Valerie, and touched Valerie's entire body, which made Arthur feel hot and cold with curiosity. On the other hand, Valerie doesn't know what to do anymore; her just feels bored in her spacious apartment. It wasn't that Valerie didn't like having such a large and well-equipped apartment; it was just that she felt lonely, and if only she could get a cat, then her life would be complete. Valerie yawned as she felt sleepy after enjoying a slice of bread with strawberry jam in the late afternoon. There was no other choice but to step into the main room and rest before returning to work the next day. Valerie's feet stepped up the stairs that would lead her to the master bedroom, which was very quiet. Without much talking, Valerie jumped straight onto the soft bed, closed her eyes, and fell asleep. Without Valerie realizing it, Arthur laughed several times unintentionally because of the silly things Valerie did. For who knows how many minutes, Arthur continued to watch Valerie's movements from the CCTV that was displayed large on his monitor screen. Seeing Valerie sleeping peacefully made Arthur forget all his work that was still unfinished. Valerie woke up early because she also slept early last night. Before making breakfast, Valerie cleaned herself first. Valerie was not going to miss her bath. Again, Valerie's mouth was wide open when she saw all the bathroom facilities in the master bedroom. "Am I dreaming?" Valerie patted her cheeks as she marveled at the large bathtub and the shower behind the glass wall. And the luxurious marble sink. Valerie's hand touched the sink and turned the gold-colored faucet. The clear water touching her hand against the large glass in front of her reflected Valerie's poor face. To be honest, even though she had a model mother who always gave her money, Valerie never used it to get rich or buy all the things she never had. "Isn't all this too much? But why am I even afraid to meet the billionaire who is my boss? Is it just my hunch that there is an ulterior motive?" Valerie was talking to herself. This was something that continued to haunt Valerie and even carried over into her sleep. She quickly woke up from her reverie and went to the shower cubicle to immediately undress her body. Turning on the shower and wetting her whole body with warm water that fell gently on her head, Valerie used the liquid soap facility on the edge and wiped her whole body with soap that had a masculine scent, but she liked it. After he finished cleansing his body, he chose the same office clothes he wore every day when he was working in Chicago. An olive-colored shirt with a black knee-length spandex skirt. Valerie picked up a small pouch that held all her simple makeup tools. Valerie's face never had a problem with the substances in her makeup; all of her makeup was cheap makeup that she bought at a discounted price. A thin layer of pink lipstick on her pale lips was enough to beautify Valerie's face. She put her hair in a ponytail so as not to disturb her work. Valerie sprayed a perfume that had a fruity scent and put two small jeweled earrings on her ears. "I think my appearance is quite decent; nothing revealing, and I hope it's following company regulations." Valerie corrected her appearance once more in the mirror before she picked up her small bag and her black 5 cm high heels. "I hope you will support me at work today," Valerie said to her worn-out high heels that had broken some time ago and had to be taken to a repair shop. Valerie still didn't have much money to replace them; after all, as long as they were still good for her, why waste a lot of money to buy new ones?Valerie immediately went downstairs; she had to have breakfast before Depson picked her up, and one more thing that made Valerie nervous was that her was afraid he would be late because the rules said his boss hated people who were not on time.The bell rang, and Valerie, who had just opened the fridge, immediately grabbed the whole milk she had been drinking and opened the door to welcome Depson."Are you finished, miss?"Valerie nodded when she saw that Depson was all dressed up in a black suit."I'm ready, sir." Valerie was still confused about what to call Depson because, honestly, her looked older than her, and just calling him by his name was not too rude."Just call me Depson Lady; I don't want to look too old, and you are more honorable than me." Valerie only smiled slightly, as she still did not understand the meaning of Depson's last words. Valerie felt that she looked more special, being picked up by Depson to go to work."I have been assigned by the master to pick up Miss a
''Wrong!!! Replace with a new one.'' Valerie just closed her eyes. She had to save a lot of patience to deal with her new boss, who always made Valerie want to scream. It had only been a week, but Valerie felt like she had been in hell for almost a year. ''Fucking Arthur!" Valerie cursed while gripping her hand. It was the only swear word that could describe how frustrated Valerie was right now, even though she could only do it in her heart.Even in a state of anger, Valerie never neglected her duties; she always handed them in on time. But everything was still lacking in Arthur's eyes! Valerie glanced at the watch on her left wrist. It was almost lunchtime. But Valerie couldn't help but exhale—everything would be missed, like there could be no meal as long as Valerie's work wasn't done.One thing that Valerie had come to understand little by little was that Arthur was a perfectionist, stubborn, and mysterious to her. Valerie was still busy struggling with the monitor screen that dis
"I told you to answer me!" Arthur grabbed Valerie's chin with his scarred hand and squeezed the chin so that Valerie would look him in the eye this time."You have to be my doll from today on, Valerie... I don't accept any refusals from you! Whether you like it or not! You must serve me as your owner." Valerie's eyes only widened, as she had no idea what Arthur was talking about.Before he could answer, Arthur kissed him forcefully on the lips again, sucking and smacking his lips with tenderness. This time, the kiss was different from the one he received a few minutes ago in the elevator.For a moment, Valerie was lulled by the kiss Arthur gave her. She wanted to reciprocate, but Valerie felt hesitant about it."What do you mean, Arthur? Why is it that every time you touch my body, I can't resist?" Arthur continued to speak in his heart; he hated his brain and heart, which innocently accepted Arthur's treatment.Arthur's hands forcefully pulled Valerie's white shirt in half. Arthur's
"I've been working with Mr. Arthur since 10 years ago... More precisely, when Mr. Arthur had just taken the helm of the company, what is it, Miss?" Valerie was also surprised to hear how long Depson had been working with Arthur, it was not impossible that Depson did not know all of Arthur's mysterious traits"Nothing, I'm just asking that." Valerie had many questions that she still wanted to answer, but she chose to stop her words. Flashback offWhile she was thinking about things, the doorbell of her apartment suddenly rang again. Suddenly, Valerie, who had now moved to sit at the dining table, felt frightened, considering that it was already 10 p.m. "It can't be a guest coming to visit, and it can't be Depson." Valerie was still talking in her heart, she also felt confused about whether to open the door or not. She remembered that there was no one she knew in this French country besides Depson. Valerie chose not to care and did not move her body to check who was coming. It was be
Valerie opened her eyes; she was not sleeping. How could she sleep peacefully in the arms of a strange man who was currently fast asleep?Even until this moment, Valerie felt hatred for herself; more precisely, he even felt disgusted with his body. It could be said that her was like a bitch now; if only his situation was not like this, then Valerie would feel happier and calmer if they did it based on mutual love. Valerie let go of Arthur's embrace on her body; she immediately walked to the bathroom and skipped all her clothes, which now lay disorderly on the floor of the room. Valerie's thoughts at this time were that she had to erase Arthur's traces on her body, even though bathing in the early hours of the morning was never in Valerie's dictionary. But all that he would often do from this moment on was eliminate all of Arthur's body odor that clung to his body."I hate you, Arthur; it's a shame why I met you then, and I regret it now." Valerie could only curse Arthur in her heart
Valerie gazed at Arthur's face, sleeping peacefully by his side. If only Arthur didn't have the heart of a demon, then Valerie would feel lucky to be with Arthur, the man who captivated him even when her met him by accident.Valerie's hand moved to touch the surface of Arthur's cheek, but she remembered that her had no rights over Arthur. So her pulled his hand back and got up from his sleep because life is not as sweet as romantic dramas and don't expect too much. "Wake up, Valerie, Remember what happened last night. "You have to remember it!" Valerie realized her stepped into the bathroom just to wash her face, Her didn't need to take a shower because a few hours ago he had done it. Was she trying to avoid Arthur this time? Yes, Valerie was trying to do that. It only took a few minutes for Valerie to get herself dressed in a navy blue shirt and white span skirt. Even though her body felt almost broken, Valerie was still Valerie. She would not let herself live in laziness unless s
''Depson did you know Mr. Arthur is allergic to caffeine?'' Valerie ventured to ask Depson again. "I'm sorry, miss. I forgot to tell you that sir does have an allergy to caffeine; it almost took his life seven years ago, to be more precise. Since then, Sir has never consumed anything containing caffeine, whether in the form of food or drink. Is there a problem, miss?" Depson glanced at Valerie's face through the glass in front of him. ''If he drank a little bit of it, no, I mean, maybe just a little taste, would you be okay?" Valerie was at a loss to explain to Depson how, because there was no way she could say that this morning because of her kiss, Arthur had tasted coffee again, directly or indirectly. ''As long as he don't swallow it, then I think it will be fine, Miss; it's just better to avoid it." Depson feels that Valerie made a mistake. That is the reason why Depson received an angry phone call from Arthur this morning. Honestly, Depson felt sorry for Valerie; that woman h
Valerie sat on the steps of the apartment, still in his office suit. He pulled the can of beer he had gotten from the fridge and took a few sips before setting it back down by his side. The time flew by so fast. He didn't realize he had passed almost a month with all the suffering and many things he had gotten used to over time. Was Valerie okay? The possibility that he could say he was fine was impossible. Arthur the Man-made Valerie forget she had ever been a cheerful Valerie because this month all of Valerie's traits were inversely proportional. "Aww, I have to treat it again. " Valerie looked at her right wrist, which was turning blue from Arthur's grip. Valerie felt scared every night because she was afraid of Arthur's arrival. She was afraid that Arthur would treat her harshly. The door to the apartment suddenly rang, and Valerie had guessed who was coming. If not Arthur, then who else could access the apartment door at will? Valerie looked at Arthur who had thrown his co
