In Between Two Worlds

Chapter 3: The rude migrant

The man who just bumped into her was so rude that instead of apologizing to her, he dared to call her a whore...

No, he's more than rude, it's only fair for her to call this man a w***e, not a rude one.

"Ooooh, my sweet tomato," he said with a smirk and a surprised face, and within seconds Adriana's face reddened to resemble a tomato, the rude immigrant laughed at her in a way that made her realize that she had just proved his sentence.

The first time she saw this man was at the zoo, she was sixteen years old at the time, he was running away from several men in black suits, he forced her to hide him, she did her best to make sure the men in black didn't find him, she succeeded and he didn't even thank her, dare to defend him?

The second time she was eighteen years old, it was raining and she wanted to get home as quickly as possible because of the cold, she was walking fast holding her umbrella when she felt a strong arm pulling her from behind, she turned her face and met him, she was still thinking about their last meeting two years ago when suddenly she felt a man's hand on her waist.

She felt a man's hand on her waist pulling her and before she realized it he was kissing her hard, while she was still processing it, she felt his warm hands touching her.... She felt like her mind was blurred...

How could he? It was her first kiss, it was supposed to be a special kiss, how could he..... After the man in black ran past them, he moved away from her

He stared at her blushing face, red as a tomato. Wait, is that why he called her a tomato?

She couldn't stand there anymore facing him so she excused her self and ran off.....

The third time was when she was leaving from an interview, and she got into a taxi,

Before she could settle down properly a man in a black hoodie jumped in and it was him again, she was ashamed and angry with him, she stayed silent and waited for him to apologize but he didn't for the whole trip, until he asked the driver to drop him off at the car lot, he never spoke to her again for the whole trip again he didn't apologize or apologize for his last embarrassing rude act, it was the last time she saw him until now.

"I guess I should tell you this now, this is our destiny... I think God is giving us a sign..." He said as he approached her

"Shut up... I don't talk to criminals, especially fugitives, so please, ."

"Your Highness," a voice from behind her interrupted her... Wait what? Your Highness.....

She turned to see the two men.

There were two men standing there, so tall that she had to lift her head to see their faces, the first man was wearing a black suit and was immediately bowing, but her attention fell on the other big man wearing a plain white shirt that didn't expose his chest, apart from being handsome and extremely stunning, his body was enough to catch any girl's attention, his plain white shirt was enough to show off his muscular physique and muscular arms.

"Stop staring and bow to His Highness," the man said coldly

"You guys are very good at ruining my happy moments and stop bowing, I'm sick and tired of it. I actually hate it."

"Hey!" His Highness said again, pointing at the man in the black suit

"Leave me with Rodrick, he's more than enough to protect me." The man in black bowed and walked away as Adriana turned to face Rodrick, giving him a look of So you have a nice name like you... But Rodrick stared deeply into her eyes and for some strange reason she couldn't meet his gaze, her heart was pounding unsteadily... His eyes... They were..... There was something in them.

"So, my sweet tomato, my name is..."

"Nilan, the son of the president who is expected to be the next president."

Rodrick cut him off and used that as a way to interrupt Adriana's stare.

"Get out of here, asshole," Nilan said as he grabbed Adriana's hand, taking few steps away from Rodrick

"Cute tomato, what's your name and what are you doing here?

"A.aa Adriana... My name is Adriana. And I came here for... I mean the interview, but I'm not lucky," she said, bowing her head in respect to His Highness

"Who dares to throw my cute tomato ... Let me get your papers."

She hurriedly gave him her papers, she couldn't let this opportunity pass her by, he took them and then looked at Rodrick as he handed him the papers

"You bastard, you know what to do." As soon as he said that, Rodrick took the papers, grabbed his phone and made a call.

In the meantime Nilan pulled Adriana closer to the table and made her sit down, she was still digesting all of this and trying to get her mind to swallow it all.

"Let me take this moment to apologize for the inconvenience, I apologize for all the time I've caused you trouble, I hate my bodyguards, it's kind of boring, that's why I always run away from them. I'm sure we've met a few times and you've saved me so let me pay you this time."

Nilan said, looking into her eyes as she blushed and tried to ignore his gaze

"...So, Your Highness, why are you calling Rodrick a bastard? I think it's kind of mean."

"He's meaner, you just don't know him, anyway I like my bodyguard, he listens to me and knows what I want, so calling him a bastard is just being friendly."

He explained to her

"By the way, what kind of cute tomato are you to question His Highness?"

He said it with a smile but it was enough to scare her. She suddenly stood up and bowed in front of him

"I am... I mean to apologize to you..."

"I am here as you requested, Your Highness."

The man who came with Rodrick said as he bowed and cut Adriana off. Nilan looked at him as he motioned for Adriana to sit down.

"No more nonsense, I want her appointed here. Rodrick, give him the papers."

Nilan said as he crossed his arms over his chest and Rodrick could only do as he was told, handing the papers to the man.

"But Your Highness."

"I'm done... Adriana, you can come to work the day after tomorrow."

Nilan said as he stood up.

"Well miss, my name is Mr. Mallex, your HR."

He said as he extended his hand to her

"Adriana Lucas..."

She said shaking their hands and smiling.

"Well..... I guess it's just a few things, you dropped out of school!!!"

He said, looking at her and then back to the papers

"Well....until the day after tomorrow you can come in and start working... About the other stuff we'll fix it by then, I have to go, you're welcome..."

He said and walked away.

Adriana stood there pinching her skin to make sure it wasn't a dream and that she got a job without an interview.
