Chapter 07

Cassiopeia Feyre POV

Ezekiel Veinstridge the person I wanted to meet at the first place, he was my target but now I seem to be engulfed in fear for reasons I don't know.

This aura carries a heavy feeling,"Hi miss, can I ask where's your boss?"he asked while seriously looking at me.

"He-he is in the co-conference ro-room sir," I stammered, hiding my hand that was shaking with fear.

"Damn it," he said while holding the back of his neck, as if he wanted to kill someone in no time. I breathed a sigh of relief when he left even though he didn't say goodbye, it's okay as long as he left.

My knees were shaking and I just sat down because I really felt that they were about to give up the strength of my chest pounding from the extreme nervousness.

in the photo, you think he's normal, the type with a bossy face, but when you're in front of him, he's like a monster ready to grab you in no time.

I was out of my mind for a few minutes, so I didn't notice the arrival of Sir Max and Evan, I guess they noticed that I was tolerant, "Sam, are you alright?"

"Ha Ha Ha yes, I'm fine," I said softly, I leaned in the head of my chair as I sighed heavily, I was surprised when the one I was sitting on turned around. he bent down so our faces met and our faces were only a few feet away"sir what are you doing?" I asked seriously.

"Nothin' is there something happened?" he caressed my face, then he kissed me passionately on the lips going up to the tip of my nose to my forehead.

"Don't train me with your kisses, sir, I might get addicted," I said, but of course I was just joking.

"No, I can always kiss you everyday if you want to," he smirked and smiled. I just felt my whole face heat up because of what he said. That's why I got ready.

"Stop being a flirty boss, Taker," that voice, I wasn't wrong Ezekiel came back.

"What are you doing here Ezekiel?" Sir Max's tone of voice was serious.

"I need to talk to you with some matters, and it's serious," they stared at each other, I can compare the two of them to a ferocious lion and a wolf.

"Follow me," they entered Sir's office at the same time, I want to listen to what they are talking about, maybe I can get some important information but it is difficult except for the CCTVs around me now with Sir Evan.

"By the way Sam, join me outside later we're going to meet someone," I nodded to Sir Evan, before returning my gaze to the documents, my gaze once again landed on Sir's office door.

Sir Evan and I LEFT and just went to the nearby restaurant, "we have a reservation in the name of Mr Vitiello."

"Yes Sir, we're actually expecting your arrival today, I will lead the way into the VIP reservation area," said Sir Evan as if he was the manager of the restaurant, he guided us to the VIP room.

it opened the door and my eyes widened when I recognized who was inside,"Samantha we meet again,"he said energetically.

"Theored? OMG what are you doing here?" I wondered but I was happy to see him again.

"Well, I didn't know that you already met each other, that's better since you'll be the one who will guide Mr. De Lune in our company," I felt happy, "but it seems that one has not yet our guest should we wait for him."

"Actually, he was having a book signing today, that's why he said that we could start discussing the contract without him, he will also come later to sign the contract, "who are they referring to, I'm just a little suspicious but I hope not.

I was surprised when I found out that Theored is a famous model and singer, he will be the model for the new product that the company will release, and our other guest will be the one who will promote the product because that person is a famous writer.

"I'm sorry I'm late," we looked at the newcomer, wengya I wasn't wrong Kuya and I looked at each other.

"Mr. de Valle it's finally nice to meet you in person it's hard to set an appointment with you because it seems that you are too busy to disturb," said Sir Evan, I secretly roll my eyes.

I'm just listening to their conversation but sometimes my eyes fall on Kuya, my forehead frowns when I see him smiling like he's crazy and sometimes he laughs softly and I can't help but stare deeply at the ceiling, "Wren, did something good happen?" to you why are yoacting that way?"I think i finally met my love and destiny she's so pretty," wengya seems like she is the happiest person in the whole world because of the way she acts and I hate it," it's like love at first sight."

"Did you get his name?" I asked in a serious tone so the three of them looked at me.

"Her name is Kristina Digal, ahh even her name is pretty," he said while chuckling,"ohh don't mind me and continue on what your doing haha."

Kuya still acts like that until they sign the contract.

EZEKIEL POV

"This is bullsh*t, should we make a move?"

"Calm down your ass Ezekiel this is not the right for us to make a move," Taker said without looking at me, "but if they cross the line I would not hesitate to kill all of them."

We were silent for a moment when I remembered something, "by the way do you like your secretary? and I also heard about the engagement of Terrence and Akira are you okay about it?"

He looked at me badly, I don't know what part of what I said made him angry, "don't you ever dare to lay any finger of yours on her or else I will cut it without hesitation."

"That's not even like or love that's called being possessive, can you even differentiate love and possessiveness ?,"his awra became even more ugly around, "but the most interesting things is, i think i saw that girl somewhere i just can't remember where but she looks familiar, did you even do abackground check on her?"Yes, and I trust her."

I got up from sitting, "before you forget, the elders want to gather everyone since Dad came home from Russia."

"Is there something happened that's why he came home? It's been a long time," said Taker.

"If I'm not mistaken he hasn't given up on searching for his long child," I sighed,"I wish he finds that child as soon as possible because I'm tired of this sh*t."

"Aren't you a bit jealous?"

"Why would I be jealous, I'll be glad if he takes my position In the first place I'm just an substitute, "sadly but yes, "I gotta go I need to prepare for tonight."

THIRD PERSON POV

"Are you still going to be like that? Aren't you tired?" asked a man.

"Shut up, if you want to leave then leave I don't need you here," a man said, "his back that interesting? Hahah I should start my action according to the plan."

"You really won't stop?they trust you but what are you doing betraying the group," the man threw the glass he was holding with only wine at the man standing not far from the door, the man avoided it, "his your-."

"Don't you f*cking dare to continue your f*cking sentence I won't hesitate to kill you even if I'm still your friend," the guy clenched his fist because of the guy said.

The man was about to speak when they heard a knock on the door and after three knocks it opened, the door spat out a woman, "hi-hi," the woman said nervously.

"What the f*cking hell are you doing here?!" the girl flinched because of the anger in the man's voice and couldn't look directly at him because of his glaring eyes,"how many times do i need to tell you that STOP BOTHERING ME!."

"That's enough mate, you hurt her not physically but emotionally, she was still your fiancee, at least be nice to her at once," the man said because of his sudden scolding, the other man's attention went to him. gotta go, don't forget to attend the gatherings, it seemsthat the Emperor is finally back just be careful on doing your plan because not all plans will be successful."

Cassiopeia Feyre POV

I DON'T know what to do now, the kind of situation where you're stuck in a situation you want to escape from," here try this Sam, I already peel the shrimp for you," Theored said with a smile to me.

"It's better if you eat the shrimp I peel for you," said Sir Max.

Wengya, because everything would be fine if only Sir Max came a while ago and they were like that before.

while the two were just quietly listening and eating, my plate was almost full because none of them were defeating me, I was able to open my food but I have an allergy to seafood, well, almost all of the seafood on my plate was seafood.

I heard Kuya's sigh at the same time as he looked at the two of them, without saying anything he took my plate as well as the one that Theored and Sir Max were holding, which was shrimp, so they changed the plate to meat, "you are hurting the eyes, I'm here to eat and notthe three watch a love triangle."My brother and I stared at each other as if exchanging messages with each other,"but why did you eat that."

"Act-actually, I'm allergic to sea foods, so I wanted to speak earlier, but the two of you won't let me," I said, making them both quiet, I stood up and moved because I was between the two of them while they were talking. Brother Wren's Plate will be given. I sided with Sir Evan, even if they wanted to protest, Kuya Wren just shut up and sounded like he was giving a warning," and besides Sir Wren was right we're here to eat and close the deal and not fight in front of the dining table."

after I said those words the two couldn't speak anymore while the three of us were still talking.

.The two have said their goodbyes while Sir Evan and Max and I are on our way to the company since next week we will still be guiding Thoered and Kuya then next is Thoered's shoot while Kuya Wren where also be staying in the company, according to him it is notbecause it is easy to write a promotion especially if it is included in his books that's why he needs to stay at the company so that he can at least have an idea about the company.

"Do I have a meeting this evening?" Sir asked. I looked at Sir Evan and he just nodded.

"None sir, this evening was your free time," I said since I was the one holding his appointment list.

"That's good," he said sparingly, that was the end of our conversation, the elevator was engulfed in silence.

when the elevator opened, a woman appeared to us, you could see the irritation on her face, her eyebrows were also raised and her hand was folded, "finally you're here do you know how long I've been waiting for you, "the b*tch I mean the girl that I was talking to is Ma'am SabrinaSir Max's fiancee.His gaze went to me, so his look became even worse,"oh that b*tch is still here," my heart throbbed because of what he said. If only I could have killed it, it would have been lying on the floor.

"What are you doing here?," every word Sir uttered without emotion while facing Ma'am Sabrina, well I guess he really hates her but my beauty is still better bleee.

"Your dad called me, he said that we will attend the gathering together and take note whether your okay with it or not, you still can't do anything." Ma'am Sabrina is the power of kili kili power I mean she has aconfident height when talking to Sir Max."Why don't you go with him and enough with your b*tchy attitude your disgusting," I don't know if I'm just mishearing but I really feel that there is disgust in sir Max's voice," I'll go alone so don't bother yourself I don't want to go with someone like you at the gathering, Irather go alone or with Evan or," Sir Max looked at me and winked I blinked,"even with Samantha so get lost before I throw you outside of the company and don't test my patient because I don't have a long patient for someone like you."

Maam Sabrina couldn't believe what she was hearing especially since it was from her future husband, we just passed him but when I glanced at him again I could see the anger and restraint on his face.

I was holding the back of my neck, I didn't know it but I felt like my body was getting stressed.

I sat in my chair thinking deeply about the gathering Ma'am Sabrina and Sir Max were referring to, should I go together with him.... no I think it's too suspicious if I go, and if I spy on him it might just be a wrong decision. What should I do?.
