David was done introducing Ruby to most of the present at the party hall. He was super excited to introduce his next successors of the Sawyer corporation. After all the introductions, Luke took Ruby so they could share some time as well. "Do you want some juice?" Luke asked her. Ruby smiled at him. He was so caring and affectionate. Sometimes, she felt like she might truly fall for him. "Yeah I would like it," she answered. Luke got two glasses of juice. "Won't you take drinks?" She asked when she noticed two glasses of juice. She was aware that Luke occasionally drinks alcohol. Luke shook his head as a no, "With a pregnant lady on board, absolutely not getting drunk." Ruby chuckled at his cheesiness. They talked a few casual things and suddenly, there was a silent wash over the hall. Instinctively, Luke and Ruby looked at the entrance.
There stood the handsome hunk, Gabriel Moretti. And the lady accompany
Anna pulls Gia to the side, she had been having some juice. “What is it, aunty?” she asked. “I have something to talk to you about. It is very important,” Anna responded. When they found a quiet corner, Gia asked, “Now, tell me what it is?” Anna looked around to make sure no one was around them, “I have a plan. I will give some spiking powder to you. Make sure to dump it into a glass of drinks and pass it to Luke. And you will take him away when he is high. And you know.. Do the deed with him.” Gia was shocked to hear this. She wanted to object by bringing her fathers name but Anna spoke before that, “Your father is also on board with this plan. We have to go with this plan because we really don't have any other huge plans now that Luke has brought in a girlfriend.”“But what if Luke does not accept me even after sleeping with him and gettin
The bright morning light beamed through the window, making Ruby squirm. She breathed heavily and rubbed her eyes. She felt like she had the best sleep of her life last night. She felt fresh and well slept. Suddenly, she sensed some weight on her body. She turned around only to see Luke sleeping next to her while one of his hands was under her neck and the other hand on her stomach. And his legs were tangled with her legs. Swallowing the saliva that was secreted in her throat, Ruby discreetly looked under the covers. "We did not have sex last night," Luke said while his eyes were still closed. Ruby got alerted and put the cover down and looked at him. "I did not ask it." Luke smirked, "But you checked the covers." Ruby frowned and huffed. She turned side ways and closed her eyes trying to avoid Luke. But it seemed like a worthless attempt because Luke rolled over and placed his hand on her waist and pulled her to him. He whispered into her ear, "Did yo
Gia hummed happily as she opened her eyes to the bright morning. She stretched her arms. She felt her body was well spent. She rolled over to see the man next to her. To say that she was shocked would be an understatement. She was terrified and horrified would be the proper words to use. The man laying naked next to her was not Luke. She immediately felt tears forming inside her eyes. The man awoke to her sniffing sound. He got worried seeing her like this. “Hey, what happened? please don’t cry,” he tried to console her. He leaned forward to hold her but she quickly resisted and went backwards. She could not stop the tears flowing from her eyes.She immediately got off the couch and looked around for her clothes. The skirt and top were in a good condition but her underwear was completely torn. She wore the dress and was about to dash out of the room. But the man called for her, "Hey, wait
"So, this is how much quote we are going to make, Mr Barnard," Samuel said the last word in his presentation. Luke had assigned him to a project that was making big companies crazy. Luke wanted to secure that project to his company. In the conference, Luke, and a few executives and the Barnard's oldest son, were seated. Since Luke knew the Barnard's oldest son as they went to the same university, he had taken the liberty to invite him for a meeting. And also Luke wanted to test Samuel's performance.Luke had a smile on his face as the meeting came to an end. He was kind of satisfied by the presentation. If he was on the other side of the project, then he would have definitely considered the quote. Luke turned to his left to see Barnard. He had no expression on his. Sensing Luke's gaze on him, Barnard turned to Luke and smiled. "The presentation was wonderful," he said. Luke raised his brows, "Does that mea
At the college, Ruby is excited about going home soon after the first class. Luke was so supporting of her even when she said she would attend the first class just so the principal sees her. Ruby entered the classroom and looked at their usual spot. Mia was already seated there. Ruby smiled at her and went ahead and sat beside her best friend. "You are late," Mia says. Ruby nodded her head, "Yeah, I woke up late. And I barely managed to come to the college. I will go back home after the first class." Mia's face fell, "Oh.. what shall I do alone in the class without you?" Ruby giggled and said, "You also go home. I have been feeling nauseous a lot and feel sleepy all the time." Mia snorted, "Perks of being pregnant," Ruby faked a frown, "You get pregnant and then you will know about it." Mia shook her head with shock, "No ways. Babies are too much work. It will not suit me. I am a career woman." Ruby scoffed at those words. It is not like she was belit
Next day morning, Samuel was in a good mood. To his surprise, Mr Barnard had sent in the contract earlier than he mentioned. Luke had gone to visit the Barnard’s to finalise the contract. Samuel came to Luke’s office assuming he had returned. He had to talk about the project and funds. He noticed Luke’s secretary and went to her, “Hey, has the boss come yet?” he asked expectantly. Madeleine looked up at him and smiled, “Not yet. Please be seated and wait for his arrival. If you have work, then I can call you when the boss arrives.” Samuel smirked at her, “I don’t think I have anything better to do. I could stand here and talk to you.” Madeleine clearly understood his intention of flirting. She had her doubts about this guy because he was the replacement for Mason Stevens’ spot. And he has already got a huge project to work on. She wondered if he is the guy that Anna has planted. Anna ha
“Sir… why my age? Single or not?” Madeleine stuttered. She was shocked to hear those words from her boss. Luke chuckled realizing her dilemma, "I think I know a guy that might be suitable for you." Madeleine felt embarrassed for assuming things, "Sorry sir." "So what is your age? And single or not?" Luke asked as switched on his computer. And sent a quick text message to Leo, telling him that he is back in his office. "I am 25 and I am single. Have been single since I joined the company," she answered. Luke raised his brows, "Are you telling me now that the company caused your breakup?" Madeleine blinked her eyes and nodded her head simultaneously, "Yeah, kind of. The last guy I dated had ego issues. He could not digest the fact that I was working as the secretary to the CEO of the Sawyer corporation." Luke leaned into his hand on the desk, "So, I caused your
Leo did not have any patience to stay back at work. He wanted to be alone. He looked for his team leader and asked, "Is it okay if I took the rest of the day off? I am not feeling well?" The poor team leader could not say anything. He did not want to get a rival out of Leo. "Yes, sure, that is fine, go ahead," he tone resembled a frightened person. Leo strode out of the office building. Why was no one helping him? When he reached his house, he did not even park his car properly. He threw the car keys at the watchman and went inside. He was behaving like an absolute spoiled brat. Anna, who was sitting in the living room while reading a magazine, saw her son. "Why are you back so early? Did you not have any work? Your brother seemed to have garnered one of the biggest projects of the year." She was delighted to receive the news from Samuel. He had done hi
