Precious_1

Cheated on by her fiancé weeks before their wedding, Sara, vowed to never love again. Men could not be trusted, especially with a woman's heart. She had made the mistake once, and that was more than enough for her. Never again would she make the same mistake to give her heart to another. 

But her resolve began to waver when she came across her new boss, Alexander Legend, a man whose reputation in his expertise and ruthlessness in business preceded him. Respected and feared by many, but to Sara, he was an annoying pest she wished she never met. Too persisted for her liking yet, she finds herself falling, slowly melting in his presence. Getting used to his stolen kisses and hugs and sometimes anticipating them.

“You will fall for me, Sara. One day, I'll have your heart too,” Alex drawled. His voice had a seductive allure that had her heart racing. The fact that his hand was leisurely resting around her waist didn't help her either.

“Try as much as you want to,” despite her body begging for his touch, Sara was determined to reject him today and any other day. She couldn't make the same mistake again. “You won't succeed in your seduction. NOT NOW. NOT EVER.” 

Alex smirked, kissed behind her ear and her body trembled, much to his satisfaction. That was all he needed to keep purising the stubborn woman in his arms right now. “We shall see, Miss Ambrose,” he cooed and then released her. He returned to his seat and asked in a professional tone. “What is my schedule for today?”

Melting Her Cold Heart

Meanwhile, at Jessa's apartment, she stared at the last screen of her phone with the photo of Sara and Alex holing each other. Her brows pulled together in a frown, still finding g it hard to believe that Alex had even a part of Sara's life even longer than she had been. But then…

"What happened?" She muttered. Sara never spoke of him. Not even I ce by accident. Even when Alex returned, she didn't seem to know him.

But that wasn't the case for Alex. Jessa has suspected his reason behind moving Sara from the PR to his assistant the moment he returned and discovered that she worked for his company, but she never thought of this ever.

"What in the world is going on?" she asked but couldn't provide an answer, and there was no one else to do so either. Seeing this photo had given rise to many more unanswered questions, and she knew just who to ask, and that was Sara herself, but her line was unreachable.
