"Alex, I told you yesterday, I've something important for you, a gift, kind of." She looked at her boyfriend and squealed happily.
"And what's that my darling". He asked, kissing her knuckles tenderly.
"Baby, today I'll takeover my dad's company." She defused the bomb excitedly and giving her best toothy smile.
"Whatttt!!! Are you serious Sarah?" Saying these he got up from his seat and spun her around."you really are something, Sarah"
"I know, cutiepiee." She playfully touched Alex's cheek with her forefinger.
"and what about.." he was about to complete his sentence, when there was a knock .
Soon a similar figure approached,"Hello, Ale.." Daniel looked at Sarah and Alex's closeness and smirked.
Sarah was shocked seeing the figure, she whispered, " Daniel?" He looked at Sarah amusingly, for she almost moaned his name, with fear. Instead of looking away, he shamelessly roamed his eyes on her perfect curves and the black formal jumpsuit making them look wonderful, her butt sticking out. He licked his lips. How much wants to knead that beautiful cirves and lick the little bulbs and how much he wants to whip that ass red! Alex felt irritating but he knows his position infront of this person, but he has to hide his girlfriend from this beast's hungry desire.
So, Alex put his hands on Sarah's shoulder, indicating Daniel that she's his only and said," Baby, sorry I didn't tell you, meet my friend and valuable helper, Daniel Teague. Hey man! Wassap?" Saying this Alex stretched his hand towards Daniel. First Daniel avoided Alex's approach, to which alex clutched his jaw and awkwardly cleared his throat.
Then, Daniel responded but the whole time his fierce gaze was on Sarah.
She thinks bitterly," if eyes could kill, I would have died thousand times already." She shifts her eyes aways but can feel Daniel's shameless gaze burning through her skin.
It created an awkward moment but soon the silence was interrupted by Daniel's voice," I don't think, your girlfriend likes my presence. I have something to say. Let's have a drink tonight." He was still looking at Sarah.
"Oh! You felt that too!" Alex replied a little annoyed. This time Daniel looked into Alex's eyes and tension was taking place, due to the impact of this fierce eye contact.
But to calm down the situation, Mr. Brown said," Boss, today's the birthday of young master of Aitken."
Daniel gave an amusing look," great, then let's celebrate, my victory and your birthday together."
Alex holds Sarah by her waist pulling close to him and asks taking sip from his glass," your victory? Sounds amazing. Let's do that and have old friends chitchat."
He smiled and was about to turn away, when Sarah finally spoke, taking a sip from her boyfriend's glass," I fear you need this ocassion to mourn over your losses."
He turned back and replied with a genuine smile,"Tension not, Ms. Barack. Time will say." He then left the lounge.
After, he left Sarah sighed and looked at Alex, who was looking at her with concern," don't worry am, fine!" She assured him.
"Are you sure? You both had that hostile look!" He asked thoughtfully.
"Ah.. really? I thought, you both had that! Though you claim him as your so-called best friend." Sarah snapped sarcastically.
"Oh is that so?" He replied, rubbing his temples, pretending that he was thinking. They both laughed. But their laughter didn't last long, since Alex got a call, he looked at the caller id and immediately got up and said,"let me attend this call!" Without waiting for her reply, he left. Sarah felt strange.
He came back after 5 mins, but none of them asked any question and opt to stay silent. So, they settled and enjoyed there quality time and soon it was 11 am, her first day in her soon to be company. She gave a goodbye kiss to her lover and left the hotel.
Soon she reached her would be company and stared at the board proudly but she felt something was wrong.
A cold chill ran down her spine. No guards. Even staff members were absent. She entered the company and rushed to the elevator and clicked 22nd floor. Martha was following her.
Bing! Something cold pierced, her heart. She stared with daze into the sceneries infront of her. She stepped out of the elevator and rushed to her father's office, dodging over the deadbodies of her father's bodyguards. She reached his office and was taken aback by the dreadful scence. Her father was lying on the floor helplessly and Daniel's foot was on her father's chest. Her father was spitting blood. She was in a daze and wished it was a nightmare but all looked so real.
She was soon brought to earth by a cold voice," Enjoying? I already warned you, I get what I want, by all means." Followed by a devilish laugh, that echoed through the office's silent walls.
Sarah gathered her senses," You Asshole! How dare you? Get your filthy legs off my father's bossom. Dad. I'll make everything ok. Please don't.."
She was approaching her father when thud! A deadly slap landed on her cheeks and she fell to the ground. Everything seemed blurry for a second when she felt her cheeks burning first and then getting numb out of pain and felt hot liquid approaching out of her nose and she touched them and found red blood. She looked up surprisingly at the attacker and found a shameless Daniel, staring her with cold eyes and devil's grin.
"I heard, you're taking over your father's company, so now you're a businesswoman. Let's play buisness. I've remade the contract, read it and sign it. I promise, I'll leave your father."
She took the contract hastily and signed all pages without reading and handed back the paper to Daniel who was pointing the gun to her father's chest.
"Now do, as you said!" She looked directly into Daniel's eyes, as if challenging him.
"Ok! "He pulled away his gun.
Sarah sighed and looked down, feeling the defeat and relief both at the same time, defeat that she's submitting to his desires and relief that she saved her father. She touched her cheeks, out of pain and deadly sting, which was the impact of his big hand coming in contact with her cheeks.
But ,bam! She looked up immediately.
Blood dripped out from her father's chest. Sarah shouted, " fatherrr!!" But her father was already dead and seeing this she collapsed.
