Anna’s POV“Another unlock code!” I exclaimed. “You already used a code before. Why would you need to do it again?”“The code is 3-5-3-5-1-2!” Smith exclaimed. “Please help me press it on the screen and make the Safe open!”This was normal so I did his bidding. I tapped on the figures with the code he gave me but it didn’t budge. I had only three more trials. I thought I got something wrong and I tried it again but I failed one more time. Now, I knew the problem was not with the code.“I understand now!” I exclaimed. “The Safe checks for your fingerprint while you tap on the screen.”Smith smiled. I held his hand and tapped the figures but it did not work again. There was only one chance remaining, else the Safe would get locked on its own.“I thought you got the trick already. It seems you are still lacking in that area. The code is right but there is an input method that differs. It is not with the prints,” Smith said shortly.“Perhaps, your toes!” I exclaimed.“Wrong!” Smith shoute
Emily’s POVDan told me to meet him at the Tulips hotel. I made sure I did an investigation on that hotel before I went there. It was pretty easy to find out that the hotel was owned by Dan. It had only been opened two weeks ago and this was within the time I spoke with him last.I reached the receptionist’s desk and did as I had been instructed.”Room 114. That man is waiting for me…” I told the receptionist clearly. Dan had told me to use this code and the receptionist would understand immediately. She nodded and gave me a key. With this, I moved forward. Using the elevator, I arrived at Room 114. I opened the door with the key but I met an empty space in the room.“Dan!” I exclaimed. “Are you in here?”“The toilet!” I heard him shout back out of nowhere. “Give me five minutes and I will be through. Wait for me and make yourself comfortable.”And that was how I sat down there. To ease myself, I started to play games for the meantime. I had my ear-pods on so I could not hear what was
Dan’s POVI could see Emily look at me carefully. She shook her head several times and this got me confused. I wondered what she would say now.“You have finally chosen to be useless…” she told me calmly. “I thought you would have changed since I talked to you the last time. If I knew you were still like this, I would have never came here.”“Shh!” I shunned her angrily. “I have things to do, Emily, and you need to respect me as well. The fact that I am breaking such a personal record has nothing to do with you and your filthy inner self. It is my private life and you have no right to infringe into my privacy. If you try this next time, I will be angered and you know what that means, don’t you?”“Then you should not say it in front of me!” Emily shouted at me. “You brought a slut into a place where both of us were supposed to meet and you feel it makes sense. She must either be a full-time prostitute or a porn star!”“Ex-porn star…” Liza interrupted. She was the girl I brought into the
Emily’s POV“I won’t have the conversation here no matter what!” I shouted angrily. I was prepared to move off but Dan stopped me by holding my hand.“Calm down…” he told me softly. “We can have the conversation downstairs in the bar over a cold drink. If you like, we could get a private room for ourselves. Being outdoors in the garden is also a nice option. Just don’t leave. I had you come here because this is very important.”I decided to listen to me. It was easier since he had given me options. A bar would not be too good since the barman would be around. Others might want to use it as well and this would make things go the way we didn’t want.Also, getting a room alone with Dan was very dangerous especially since he wanted to break one stupid record of his. I didn’t want to be a testing instrument. The best place was the garden which could be suited to have only two of us. We could have drinks and the breeze would be refreshing. The only issue was that it was a sunny afternoon. W
Anna’s POV“Hey, Smith. I will be leaving first, okay?” I called him from inside.“You should wait for me, darling!” Smith exclaimed back. I had to wait for him even though we would not be leaving together.I waited around the dining room for him where he was supposed to meet me. Smith came outside hurriedly. I sighted his shirt and helped him to use the buttons appropriately. He was fully dressed and I teased his beards for a moment.“I have everything prepared already…” Smith told me shortly. “I have procured a post for one of your bodyguards in the office. He would work as an intern and he would assist everyone in the office. What do you intend to do with him?”I smiled.“The whole scope does not look like a ‘bodyguard thing’ right? It is more like they have been bought as mercenaries!” I told Smith sharply.“Exactly!” Smith replied. “Bodyguards are meant to protect your body from danger even if it means using theirs as a shield. Right now, they are spies who would serve as your in
Anna’s POV:“Both of you met yesterday!” Charlotte exclaimed. I thought Smith would lie but he didn’t. Now, Charlotte would suspect us and make it easier to find out our relationship.“I got a call that she had been admitted in the hospital. She seemed to have collapsed on the way due to stress and exhaustion. They had to reach her family and when they learned that she was coming to work, they called me since she saved my contact as ‘boss’…” Smith said calmly. I was so shocked with the way he dropped that lie. I now had to follow up.“Really? You should have told us. We were also worried when you didn’t come back until the day ended, boss,” Charlotte said. She seemed to care about me with the way she slurred her words.“I know, right?” I stepped in to the issue. “Boss is a caring man and he actually waited for me to regain consciousness. I have no one, you know. No friends and my family are not nearby. He even got his driver to take me home!”Charlotte smiled happily. I watched as she
Anna’s POV“He caught her?!” I asked in a loud voice. My heart was racing at this point. The realization of this made me feel bad. I didn’t care that it was before he met me.“He did!” Charlotte replied. “It was after a meeting and I don’t know why boss had been observing her. He was staring at her back though I do not know what he was looking at exactly. It could be her back, her hair, her legs, or her butt!”I felt angered.“He couldn’t have been staring at her flat ass!” I exclaimed in anger.“He could have…” Charlotte replied. “Men are men and they would always be men. When that gender is hard, they don’t care. Beautiful or ugly. Slim, fat or chubby. Tall, short, or a dwarf. Curvy or straight. As long as you are a female, they are good to go!”“I don’t believe that. They should have preferences…” I said shortly.“Elena has always been attractive!” Charlotte told me confidently. “She don’t have a flat ass. There is still some flesh there. It is not bony and you know it.”“When I sa
Anna's POV “Oh, I understand…” Charlotte rushed and held my hand. “You can leave at any time, okay? Let's just go clubbing! The thing is that it starts officially by eight. That's when the real party begins!” “I will think about it but I'm gonna leave for now. The meeting will start soon so you should go to put things in place as well…” I told her carefully. This was how I was set free from Charlotte's hook for now. I would have to tell Smith if I wanted to go clubbing. It was not a choice for me. It was compulsory since he was my husband. I decided not to talk about what I had learned about Smith and Elena for now. It was in the past so it didn't matter but I would still tease Smith about it once I found out the whole truth. I prepared for the meeting since we had been told the time already. I saw Elena earlier. She said ‘hi’ before I did so I guess she had forgotten about what I did to her the day before yesterday. It was nice to let things go actually. Some minutes before the
