“It is my business, I pay you to work for me, Danielle, I need you here because this is important to me. So please, come through for me, please,”Now he was begging. Not only was he self-centered, but he was also very manipulative. “I am begging you. you can take tomorrow off. This came on and I have to be there. You have to come with me, Danielle. You know I need you,”He went on. Dani hated him so much for manipulating her. She hung up and turned on do not disturb mode. She picked up her bag and walked out of her apartment. She got in her car and started it with every intention of driving to the hospital but his pleading voice kept echoing in her head. “Fucking miserable man,”Dani cursed out and drove out of her driveway. She arrived at the company about twenty minutes later, she cursed at herself all the way there. She angrily got out of the car. She didn’t know if she was more angry at Luciano or herself for not being able to stand her ground and tell him no. She grudgingly got
“I didn’t do anything that your other secretaries couldn’t have done for you. You just want to always have your way and I am the fool for showing up.” Dani let out. “Dani, come on. I already told you that you can do whatever business you have to do tomorrow, don’t ruin this happy moment by nagging. What was so important anyway?”His whole sentence was bad but the last part was just off. It made her so angry. “I told you that’s none of your business. Today was important to me but you still found a way to make me come to work even after I told you a week before today that I would be off,”Dani let out. She felt emotional and was so close to tears but she didn’t want to cry here in the lobby of a hotel with her egoistic boss as an audience. “I know you are going to say something like you pay me well to do my job, well don’t because I already know that. It still doesn’t excuse how you always want to have your way and not let other people get what they want. I had something really impo
“What did you say?”Luciano asked. Wanting to believe that he missed what she had said. Everything was happening so fast. One minute he was very happy to have gotten one of the hardest possessions to acquire and the next minute he was having a conversation that he would rather not have with his secretary in the lobby of the venue of the meeting. This was not how he envisioned the rest of today to go. All he had wanted to do immediately after he had signed the deal and paid the money for the property was to have a nice evening after dropping Danielle off. He had also thought of compensating her for dragging her out of the house on her day off after he had promised her that it would not happen again. he couldn’t bring anyone else with him as he didn’t want to fumble his chances of getting the property when one of his biggest rivals had also been interested in getting the property. The worst part is that he hadn’t even been aware of any of it until he got the call from the Goshin castle
“You will work for me until I say otherwise, Danielle,”He told her as he drove into his mansion. Funny how Danielle has been the only woman he has ever let into his mansion. Well, aside from Lydia, an older woman who has been working for him as his cleaner for years now. She only comes in twice a week to clean. She doesn’t live in the mansion so he barely sees her unless he works from home. Every other person who worked for him in his house was male and he kept it that way. So yeah, only Danielle and Lydia. He didn’t have any family members. he lost his parents at a very young age. He was raised by his uncle and his wife until they both also died in a car accident when he had been only thirteen years old. He learned the art of living and surviving on his own at a very young age and never tried to let anyone close to him. The women he dated only knew his hotels or Penthouses. Even before Danielle started working for him, his secretaries before her never once came to his house. He real
“Let me go, Luciano or I am going to sue you,”She threatened. He let out a laugh. “Can you really sue me? Danielle? Think about it.”He said. she looked away. At least she knew the truth. Any legal battle she tries with him would only end with her losing everything she owns. Not like he would ever think of dealing with her through the law. There were a lot of other ways to get through. “Now you can’t even look at me? You were so sure talking a minute ago. Did I shock you back to reality?”He asked and she looked up at him for a moment. He let out a gasp that he damn well knew was a little audible. He couldn’t blame himself for it. The beauty before him threw him off balance and once again, his eyes settled on her lips. Reminding him of what has been part of his thought for the last one month. The thought that he did his best to keep away but now that he was so close to her, it was hard to keep those thoughts away and also hard to not stare at her full lips. She chose that moment to
“You are the one to talk? You kissed me back and were moaning so sensually.”He responded. She didn’t say anything but continued glaring at him. “And why would you even think I would try to stop you from leaving with a kiss? What do you take me for?”He questioned. He hadn’t even been thinking about work or the fact that she was leaving him when he had kissed her. All he had thought of was tasting her lips. “That’s something you can do. Try to seduce me into staying with you, that’s never going to happen,”She let out. “You rate yourself a little too much, Danielle. I wouldn’t need to seduce you to make you stay with me. The kiss happened and I am not going to deny that it did but bear in mind that it hadn’t nothing to do with wanting you to continue working with me and it will most certainly not happen again,”He told her firmly. He thought he saw the look of disappointment on her face when he said the words but it disappeared so fast that he concluded that he might have imagined
Dani got home a lot later than she had wanted because first, she had to trek out of Luciano’s estate. After all, the fucker didn’t think of getting a cab for her. and then she had to get a ride. She couldn’t leave her things at the office and faced going back there when he was around so she went to the office to get every one of her stuff in the office and also her car. Thankfully, there was no one within the office and she only had to deal with the security people who weren't hard to deal with since they all knew her well. They greeted her well and treated her well. Everyone who worked for Luciano treated people well. Only that lunatic of a man treated people horribly and by people, she meant herself. “Fuck him,”Dani let out. her fingers subconsciously went to her lips. She rubbed on her lips. She still felt tingles from when he kissed her. All night she tried to stop herself from thinking about the kiss and it worked until now. “I can’t believe I let that man kiss me, I am such a
“I have truly been living for that man for three whole years now. Not anymore,”She whispered and closed the diary. She kind of wished she could drink alcohol to help her fall asleep but she didn’t want to hurt her little one in any way. She already hurt her twice today, first by choosing to go to a meeting with that man and secondly by kissing his alcohol-filled mouth even though it would have hurt her. Okay, technically, that’s not enough to harm her but still, she shouldn’t have been kissing Luciano in the first place. “I am sorry, my darling.”She apologized, holding her lower abdomen. “I will always put you first from now on,” Her phone beeped and she checked to see that Luciano had deposited money in her account. She checked her balance. “Whoa, is he trying to buy me back with money or what?”She asked when she saw the amount that he had sent. “If he thinks I will return the money then he really doesn’t have any idea who I am,”She let out. He paid three times her normal sa
