Vanessa's POV

So I finally gave up and just sat down. I refused to remove my jacket. I rather die in this heat. I watched him eat and waited for him to finish with his shenanigans.

"So, I'm launching a new gadget soon. I mean, they're done with it and it's time for unveiling. It'll be one of the biggest event in this City and so I want a very good arena and very wonderful interior designs. Good food, good music, good women as waiters, good everything. The best" He said, sternly.

Never knew he could be serious

"This is what took you 2 hours to say?" I frowned and he just shrugged. "Is the president coming?"

"No. Why?"

"So why the fuck will you drag me down here! You could have just told me over the phone! Or texted me! Or told me in MY office!" I swear this guy knows how to piss someone off

"There's the reaction, tough girl" He chuckled and stood up to turn off the heater and put on the Air Conditioner

Thank you, Lucifer

"You were roasting?" I glared at him

"You're steaming hot. I figured you needed the chill breeze since you just blew hot" He resumed his position and smiled at me

What is he smiling for?

"Can I leave now?" I folded my arms around my chest

"Ow! I think I broke my legs. Can't stand sorry"

The audacity!

"Just tell me the pin." I smiled softly

"0502" He smiled and I immediately ran up to the door to fill it in

Wrong

"Really now?!" I groaned

"Oops my bad, 0601" He said nonchalantly while picking his phone up

"You better be correct, Blackwood. Or else" I sneered. I went ahead to input the pin and guess what? It's wrong!!!!!

"Or else what?" He said, adjusting himself properly on the couch.

"I swear to God, I need to smoke. Now I see why people smoke. It's because of people like you!" I groaned.

"Okay okay, I'm sorry Nessa. I've messed with you a lot today" He smiled and then sighed. "This is suppose to be a private thing, I mean the pin, but I can share with you and that makes us best friend"

Whatever...just get over with it already

"I swear if you break into my house, I'd haunt you down Nessa." He frowned

"You could just come over here and dial it, you know right?" I raised my eyebrow at him

"Broken legs" he sniffed

"Since when?!!!! Just tell me. Later you could just change the pin" I'm getting impatient already

"2000" He said affirmatively.

"System shutting down. Too many wrong attempts." the bot said

This is the height of it.

I glared at Richard and he stood up and sprint towards God knows where but nevertheless, I follow him and tackled him and used the pillow to beat the shit out of him.

Pillow?

From where?

"Welcome to my room, Nessa" He chuckled and I looked round to take in my environment. Nice one, Richard

"When next does the system come up. What kind of system is that? It has disadvantages. So imagine you have a very important meeting and it locks you up. You'll lose a lot" I frowned. I mean that'll be so horrible.

"Firstly, there's a back up to opening it. And I do have another pathway to leave this penthouse but for now, it's locked. Secondly, you'll be leaving here in the next three hours so please feel at home." He smirked. "Oh look! It's just 3 o'clock anyway"

My meeting! I just knew this shit will happen.

"You'll pay" I said sternly.

"Add it to my bill. Make the payment for the event extremely high because I'll be insulted if you give me something cheap" He smiled at me. "You could get off me now and we could go get you something to eat"

And that's where it dawned on me that I've been straddling him all these while!!!!!!!

"I hate you" I tried to stand up but he held me down on him firmly and pressed me into himself

"Can you feel that? That's what you do to me" He winked.

Where exactly did I go wrong in this life? Because what did I do to deserve this kind of treatment.

" I do not have time for this nonsense. I hope not to work for you. Ever!" I used my elbow to get his hands off my waist but then he flipped me immediately and boom he's on top, caging me in-between his arms

"You'll keep working for me, Munchkin." He moved his lips dangerously close to my ear and I just stopped breathing instantly. "I have the final say." He whispered and it sends shivers down my spine. I swear I was feeling things I shouldn't be feeling down there.

Am I into BDSM now or something?

"Get off me" I managed to say with a tough look on my face. I'm not even scared of him one bit

"And munchkin, my words will forever count. I get whatever I want. I got you where I want you. In my bed" He whispered the last part dangerously close to my ear and moves his lips down to my neck and places a soft kiss there. Then he patted my cheek, drags his hand down my body slowly, stopping at my waist and then he got up and pulled me up and left me alone in the room.

What kind of sexual frustration is this?

How do I survive with him for 3 hours?

I'm so gone.

"You should pack your things and get out of my house. Now" He kept a very serious face while saying that.

Are you shitting me?!

"But..."

"My driver will drop you off at your office or wherever. I opened up the system again using the backup now leave. I hope you start working on my project soon, as I have a deadline. I'll send you the event date and all the other details. We'll have a meeting next week. I'll communicate the date to you. Have a good day Vanessa Willow. Now, leave" He said sternly.

Such mood. Bipolar disorder? Could be. He should meet a psychologist

"Right Boss" I arranged myself, and one more thing, I turned to face him "Fuck you. It's my business, I make half of the rules. I will tell you when I want to have a meeting with you. And please, next meeting should be in an office, My office. This was very inappropriate. Goodbye Blackwood. I do not need your fu-freaking driver as I can go home by myself" I stretched my hands out for him to shake, which surprisingly he did. "Nice doing business with you" I said walking up to him and standing on the tip of toe just to get to his ears

I'm not that short but this man is tall. Because why would I be standing on the tip of my toe just to tell his bastard something

"I hope to never see you again after this business." I whispered and winked before booking a ride and heading out of the building

Of course, the bodyguards were looking at me. I even heard one say "is that a lady in the bosses house? That's new"

Maybe he sneaks them through the other back door. Bastard.
