Falling for the billionaire, again!

Chapter Three

I grabbed her hands and pulled her to my laps then pressed my lips on hers. She smiled against my lips and I smirked lightly then deepened the kiss, slipping my tongue in and out of her mouth, sucking the breath out of her.

I could hear her thoughts, literally. She pegged me as one of those bosses who would sleep around with his secretary and then give her special treatment. I laughed internally and pulled away.

She smiled and ran her tongue over my bottom lips then wrapped her arms around my neck and whispered in a voice she probably thought sounded sexy, “Sooo... your place for dinner? We can finish off where we stopped.”

Damn! If only she knew how croaky she sounded.

I snickered, “Get off my legs.”

Her smile faded and she looked at me with a confused expression plastered on her face.

“What?” She breathed out.

My face hardened and she was beginning to get on my nerves. “I said get the f**k off my legs,” I said, my voice coming out cold and harsh than before.

“I... I don’t understand.. Didn’t we..” she stammered and stood up gently from my legs.

“Get out of my office.” I vociferated.

“But boss... I thought...” she continued to stammer.

I took in a deep breath and commanded, reducing the bass in my voice. “Leave my office now Melissa.”

Melissa’s face turned into a scowl and she shot me a weird look before looking down at her feet in embarrassment as she made her way out of my office.

I scoffed in my chair and chuckled when I remembered the look silicon Melissa-like Matteo had called her— gave me, and it just didn’t sit well with me.

I was going to show her and everyone who worked in the office that I wasn’t one of those bosses they could mess around with.

I got up from my chair and made my way towards the door and pushed it open. The minute I appeared in their sight, everyone stopped what they were doing and froze as they stared at me.

I turned around and saw Melissa looking at me with an expression I read as fear. I smirked gently and said. “You’re fired, Melissa”

Everyone in the office gasped and began to whisper amongst themselves while Melissa stared at me with wide eyes as I had just said something absurd.

“What!” She breathed.

“I said you’re fired. Get the hell out of here.” I repeated firmly, the bass in my so voice loud it echoed around the room. I turned around to walk back to my office and heard Melissa’s little cry.

It’s only been my first day at the company and I already hate it here, everyone here is annoying as f**k. Once we sign the deal I came here for, I’m going back to Italy without hesitating.

I stopped then turned around and they all went silent and rigid again.

“Fernando put out a search for a new secretary,” I said to one of the guys that I met downstairs earlier.

“Right away sir.” He responded and I turned around then walked back to my office, hearing them chatter indistinctly.

“Can’t wait till I leave this freaking city,” I muttered to myself with a scowl plastered on my face.

Some minutes later, Matteo walked back inside the room with a confused and questioning expression plastered on his face. His gaze landed on mine and he saw the anger on my face, which made his expression confusing.

“Yo, what happened?” He asked carefully, his voice coming out softly so I don’t flare up in anger. “Why do you have that scowl on your face? And why’s everyone out the quiet as fuck.”

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath then answered, “I fired her.”

“Fired who?” He pulled the chair out and sat on it then questioned.

“Melissa, my assistant.” I breathed out.

“What!” He exclaimed in disbelief then stood up from his chair and went outside to check Melissa’s position and confirm if she was gone.

“Damn, you fired the fake boobs?” He facepalmed himself as he walked back towards him. “You’ve only been here for like an hour and you’re already firing your workers. Everyone is going to be terrified of you at this rate bro. You’re going to be that boss who fired the assistant on his first day of work.”

“I do not care what anyone thinks. She threw herself at me, what was I supposed to do?” I snapped.

He shook his head and sat down on the chair, “Every normal person would have accepted whatever offer she was offering, I would’ve... She's hot you know....”

“s*x with my assistant, no thank you but I’ll pass.” He said distastefully.

“Guess you’re gon’ be doing all the work yourself now.”

“Fernando put up the search for a new one already,” I told him.

“Yeah, whatever bro, I'm sure you can handle a few extra works.” he chuckled mockingly, causing ms to shoot him a disgruntled look.

“Sorry sorry.” he raises his hands in defense and uttered. “Let us go out for some drinks tonight.”

“I’ll pass, I have some catching up to do with the company finances.” I declined. I wasn't really in the mood for partying or drinking and stuff like that.

“It is not a suggestion Antonio, we are going out to drink at the bar tonight whether you like it or not,” he said then stood up from the chair and walked towards the door, he stopped then turned around, “I’ll be at the house by seven pm,” he added before walking out of the room.

There's just no convincing when it comes to that dude. I grinned and shook my head.
