Meant to be 18. G****E, HOW TO MAKEOUT WITH MY BOYFRIEND?
LUCY''He is just so hot, like he came out directly from the magazine. I mean how is that even possible?'' Beatrice, Alex's new assistant, said, shaking her head.It's been a few days since our date and I miss him like hell. We barely get any time to meet and I almost regret taking my old job back. Almost.But he always makes sure to call me though, atleast once a day. Sometimes he comes to our floor to meet Rocco, in excuse to see me. And sometimes, I go to his office, using some excuses like getting his signature or giving him some files, like right now.''Yes, I agree. I can go in now?'' I asked her impatiently, giving her a forced smile.''Uh-ah, not so soon. I know what you are doing, Lucy. You come here every chance you get and you wont even let me, his assistant, to take those files to him'' she gave a knowing look and continued. ''No offense honey, but he is out of our league. I tried flirting with him on my second day and almost lost my job. He literally said 'Ms. Calvo, I do
Meant to be 19. MS. SPY!
NICCOLO MORETTI (Few days back) ''Sir, Ms. Ilaria Salvo checked in yesterday.'' Said Eric, my assistant. I smirked. ''Where is Niven? I haven't seen him since morning.'' ''He is out to get a deal from Mr. Barnard, regarding his shares'' Eric said with a hint of a smile. ''You are not going easy on him, good.'' I said, giving him a knowing look. Niven is a carefree asshole, pampered and spoiled rotten by my mother. But Dad wants him to get on the right track, so I'm stuck with him until he learns how to run a business efficiently. I wrapped things at the office by noon and headed to NewView. As soon as I entered, I saw Ria sitting in the lobby, pretending to read a newspaper wearing a blonde wig and sunglasses. I scoffed. Who wears sunglasses while reading a newspaper? That too indoors. As always, she sucks at spying. I ordered my guards to leave her alone and let her do her thing. At first, I thought about changing my guards as they almost caught her last time at the mall but w
Meant to be 20. I'M AN OKAY-ISH SPY
ILARIA Pain shot up through my arm but I didn't budge. The physical pain I'm enduring right now is nothing compared to the pain I feel emotionally. ''I told you to stop talking about my sister. You have a problem with me stalking you? Then tell me what I need to know! WHO.KILLED.MY.SISTER?'' I asked, glaring at him. To my surprise, he smiled at me amusingly while rubbing his jaw, which, by the way, wasn't even damaged a bit. Which made me more annoyed. ''Did I crack a joke?'' I asked, raising my eyebrows, deadpanned. His smile became a full blown laugh."No. It's just, you never fail to amaze me. First you tried to stalk me, but failed. I know, beginner's mistakes. Now you even dared to punch me and injured yourself in the process. I can't wait to see what else you'll do next.'' My cheeks flushed with embarrassment. ''Stop diverting the question and answer it! I bet you know what happened to her, right? How she was starved? Raped? Huh? Were you there while she was suffering?'' I s
Meant to be 21. FIST FIGHTS
NICCOLO''Lucy? Oh God!'' Ria's honey brown widened in realization. ''You are going to track back to the accident she got into? But she said that it was ruled out as an accident. How will you find anything?''''You can find anything if you have enough money and power. Now why don't you leave it to me and stop spying?'' I said, trying to ignore how close we are.I can clearly see the finger prints on her jaw turning into a nasty bruise and the cut on her lip with dried blood. I clenched my jaw and looked into her eyes. They seem to be calculating something.''Oh, I will. When you say what you are hiding or should I say who? Who is that Moretti that ordered the accident to happen? You may not know the reason, but you do know that person. After all, he is family. Right?''The air crackled with tension as her piercing gaze bore into mine. I can tell her who that person is, but it isn't my decision alone. So I tried to dodge her question for now.''I'll tell you soon when I gather enough i
Meant to be 22. ALMOST LIKE A FAMILY
LUCY I was actually excited about the weekend. Alex and I planned to spend time together, so that he could get to know Jay and Vicky. But unfortunately, he had a family gathering in Sicily. The sound of the doorbell echoed, startling me. It's almost eight in the evening. We just had dinner. Jay and Vicky were watching TV while I was washing dishes. Nat usually just bargs in, she wouldn't bother with the doorbell. My heart skipped a beat as I wondered who would be standing outside the door. I rushed towards the entrance with a tinge of worry mixed with curiosity. I looked through the peep hole and saw the person I never expected to see again. I opened the door and the person standing before me was Mrs. Diana De Luca, with her two bodyguards behind her. She smiled at me sweetly, it almost helped reduce my previous anxiety. ''Mrs. De Luca, what are you doing here?'' I asked, looking at her in disbelief. ''Well, you said you'd come to see us again but you didn't. So I decided to visi
Meant to be 23. IT'S NOW OR NEVER
LUCYI gasped out loud, snapping my eyes open. My whole body is sweaty and my heartbeat rings in my ears. I can't believe I had a sex dream. I could still feel his lips on every inch of my body.I shudder at the thought.I miss him so much. We rarely see each other in the office as he had back-to-back meetings this week. It sucks that we don't spend some quality time together. That's why I decided that it was time to tell the kids about my relationship with Alex. I'll tell them this evening.I stretched and quickly got out of bed. I went into the bathroom, brushed my teeth and made my way to the kitchen, where the delicious aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air.Gemma greeted me with a warm smile."Good morning, Gemma," I said, returning the smile. "I hope you've prepared something delicious for breakfast."Gemma chuckled, her eyes twinkling with affection. "Of course, dear. I know how much your boys love pancakes. They're waiting for you at the table."After a quick breakfast
Meant to be 24. CULINARY ADVENTURE
ALEXI woke up to the sound of my alarm clock blaring. Rubbing my eyes, I reluctantly rolled out of bed and stretched my tired muscles.Today is a special day. I was going to meet Lucy's kids for the first time as her boyfriend and spend the weekend with them and I wanted everything to go perfectly. I knew they were an important part of her life, and if I wanted to be a part of it too, I had to make an effort to connect with them.I slipped into my workout clothes and made my way to the private gym. As I started my morning workout routine, my mind wandered to thoughts of Lucy and her children. Would they accept me? Would they give me a chance?After an intense workout, I made my way to the shower, allowing the warm water to wash away the sweat.Dressed and ready for the day, I headed downstairs to the kitchen. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air, and I poured myself a cup. Sipping the hot liquid, I checked my phone for any urgent messages from work. Being a CEO means I w
Meant to be 25. DON'T GO
ALEXAs the last dish was put away, Vicky hopped up from his chair, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Let's watch a movie! I want to watch a sci-fi movie!" His voice filled the room with enthusiasm, and I couldn't help but chuckle at his eagerness.Jay looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Really? Sci-fi? Can't we watch something more exciting?"Vicky stuck out his tongue playfully. "Come on, Jay! Sci-fi is awesome! There are spaceships and aliens and cool gadgets!"Lucy interjected with a gentle smile. "Well, I think sci-fi sounds like a great choice, boys. Let's find a movie that we can all enjoy."We made our way to the living room, transforming it into a cozy haven for our movie night. Pillows and blankets were arranged on the couch, creating a warm nest where we could all cuddle together. The room was filled with anticipation as Lucy found a sci-fi film that seemed suitable for our afternoon entertainment.As the movie began, I settled comfortably on the couch, with Jay sittin
