The next day at noon, Ricardo drove with Mr. Roberto to a certain place he didn't know. Mr. Roberto only invited him on a ride with him.It didn't take long till they arrived at a certain golf field.Mr. Roberto didn't dress like someone who came to play gold. He thought.They walked for a while before reaching where two men of Mr. Roberto's age sat.It was a sunny afternoon on the golf field and Mr. Adolfo arranged partially a business meeting. But seeing the atmosphere around them, I wasn't a business meeting. It was more like a vacation. Maybe he wanted to discuss the business over pleasure.The two men immediately stopped talking when they saw Mr. Roberto arrive.They were both dressed in sports wears and held their golf sticks. It seems they must have played several rounds of the game since they looked a bit tired."Mr. Roberto. how are you?" One of the men greeted quickly."Adolfo, I got the message late. but I am here now." He said, ignoring the greeting."I didn't expect you t
Alfonso's eyes went from the game and then to Ricardo, who stood diligently behind his boss. It was obvious he was the only escort Roberto came with."I see you got yourself a well-trained bodyguard. He killed one of my very best men." Alfonso said but wasn't proud of it.Mr. Roberto let out a satisfactory smile, he had always defeated Alfonso in every way! the man never stood a chance. But he keeps on throwing an attach. Indeed Ricardo was good at his job! He thought."I appreciate the fact that you realized I've always had eyes for good things," Roberto said, and when he did, Alfonso didn't find it friendly. He held tightly, the game piece in his hands and almost crushed it. He knew what Roberto meant when he said this.He referred to his failure to win Carmen's heart.Carmen, who is Lucia's mother was his best friend a long time ago.He had fallen in love with her since their childhood days but unfortunately, she didn't return the feelings and when he introduced her to Roberto, the
Lucia arrived at the restaurant where Renee invited her to, using the address he sent. It is a classy and expensive Italian restaurant in the middle of the city. The place looked perfect to her taste. Showing the facial expression she gave, she was indeed impressed by doctor Renee. She looked around, only a few people but Renee was nowhere to be seen.She then decided to sit at just any table and wait for him.immediately after she sits down, she heard her phone ring inside her purse. it was a message notification. doctor Renee sent her a text. He would arrive at the restaurant a bit late. She read it in her mind and put the phone back in her purse."Waiter," Lucia called out and a female waitress attended to her."Hello ma'am, welcome to "La Elite restaurant. We're ready to serve you the best." The waitress said politely and she smiled in return."Here is our menu ma'am." She handed out a shiny pink square-shaped card to Lucia. It was quite big. It almost seemed like they had everyth
However, in the almost dark room, Renee watched Lucia slowly. Admiring how beautiful she looked. It was quiet in the room. Only the two of them were in the room. Lucia's eyes stared at the beautiful view outside the window. They were almost on the last floor of the building. And in the room which had the most beautiful view, she's ever seen. Italy is a beautiful place and it looked magnificent at night.Lucia turned to Renee on hearing him call out her name."Lucia, I must say. you look beautiful tonight. You have always been beautiful. But tonight's is something different." Renee said calmly extending his hands to Lucia's, holding them firmly."May I have this dance?" Renee finally asked after arguing with his mind and immediately music played and a blue light shines in the center of the room from the ceiling. Renee held her hand slowly and took her to where the light was. He grabbed her waist gently and she puts her hands on his neck. Then they danced, slowly. The room's atmosphere,
The next morning, the buzzing sound of an alarm clock filled the room, disturbing Lucia's sleep. Frustrated she sighed deeply and she opened her eyes slowly. She extended her hands slowly, towards the clock in a bid to turn it off. Instead, she touched her phone and mistakenly pushed the Alarm clock to the floor. Lucia stood up immediately to check the clock."Oh no! no..no no." She said, gathering the shattered pieced clock from the floor."Argh, it's going to be a bad day today." She cursed. The clock is her favorite, she loved it because it was gifted to her by her grandmother while she was in London. Lucia heard the continuous notification pop up on her phone and she sluggishly took the phone from the bed and checked it.It was her email again, these days, she receives random emails from websites she uses and it frustrated her. since they weren't what she was looking for, Lucia kept the phone and focus on repairing the clock."It's useless, I just have to get a similar one." She
Lucia walked past the rest applicants and opened pushed the door open, she entered Abruptly.Mr. Dante and the rest interviewers were shocked to she had returned. And she looked different from earlier. Her dress was stained with coffee and she was soaked in sweat. Mr. Dante wasn't surprised, Roberto informed him Lucia is a stubborn woman to deal with."Miss Roberto what are you doing in here?.""Mr. Dante I see no reason why you have to embarrass me in front of everyone earlier. besides I have the right to be here, I applied for this company. I have an interview to attend to, the interview to which you invited me." She blurted out quickly. Lucia was quiet a talkative."Miss Roberto I won't like to have the securities bring you out," Matteo warned, screeching his already loud voice.it almost seemed like they had a personal beef with each other. Seeing how they argued."Miss Roberto, get out of my office. You look unpleasant to my eyes."Lucia stared at the stains on her clothes and g
After he heard what she said, he became a bit uncomfortable. He badly wanted to confirm if she got burnt and again it would be inappropriate for him to check her body for proof.A few minutes later, they were on the road to the villa. It was a bit silent until Ricardo spoke."How was the interview?" He asked, eyes still focused on the road."It was fine, I guess," Lucia answered.Ricardo hasn't known Lucia for long, but her presence was obvious. It didn't go well with the interview. He had overheard Mr. Roberto calling the CEO not to give her the job.He was sure she was rejected."Miss Roberto, are you hungry? I could take you to a restaurant." He offered. Lucia turned to him immediately and smiled."Are you stylishly asking me out on a date?" Lucia asked.Ricardo was stunned by her question, what would make her think that way? Lucia was so unpredictable. "I just thought you were hungry," Ricardo replied."No, I'm not," she said hurriedly and sat uprightSoon, they got to the villa
Lucia was so focused on reading her menu list she didn't know when she missed a foot and fell backward. Ricardo caught her quickly. Lucia tried to catch her breath, she was scared from the sudden fall she grabbed his suit tightly."It's fine, I got you. I'll always protect you." Ricardo whispered. Lucia felt a sudden feeling of comfort in his embrace. His flattering words sounded intimate and she blushed. The attendants stared at them, they looked like intimate lovers. Some admired them, Ricardo held her up slowly and she was stable. Lucia realized the tablet was no longer in her hands. She saw the pieces of the tablet on the floor. It must have fallen so hard it broke. Ricardo helped her to pick it up.With a slight frown on her face."pack up the dressers for me, we're done for today." She said to the attendant and walked to the counter to pay."Done for today? Are they coming here tomorrow again?" Ricardo thought to himself. What is she up to? this woman has a surprise waiting for
