The Tyrant's Wife

"The harder I try to hate you, the deeper I fall for you." His presence irked her to the core, but whenever he got out of her sight, she missed him?! …. A tyrant, known to be the city's infamous playboy. As an executive assistant, she was forced to work under him by the most cruel twist of fate. If losing her job overnight was a nightmare, then working under a boss like Desmond Fort was hell. He was an arrogant narcissist with an ego bigger than the whole of Imperium city, but that was not what angered her the most. The most infuriating fact was that despite his constant assholery, her heart seemed to stupidly skip a beat every time he gazed at her with those devilishly charming eyes. She knew she was making a mistake but that didn't stop her from sinking deeper and deeper into his charm. All she wanted now was to leave! But leaving hell was not nearly as easy as getting in.

"I'll take it." Said Lucy as she snapped out of her thoughts.

Desmond's eyes narrowed. "If all you wanted was to have Zaria and I help you find a place to live, you could have simply said so."

She smiled gently as she turned to look at him. "Would you? I mean, you find me to be a nuisance."

He paused slightly. Why did her tone sound a little hurt?

"Besides, it's not the process but the result that matters." She spoke again, yet another of her annoying statements. "You can leave, son-in-law. I can complete the purchase on my own." She shooed him off, even though she had already completed all the formalities.

Her words made him change his mind about finding her pitiful. So what if she felt hurt that Zaria was indifferent? Served her right for humiliating his Zaria. He was yet to start blaming her for not being a mother when she was needed most, she should be thankful for that.
