CHAPTER 21

|The Next Day|

4:31... I snapped my eyes open, quickly sitting up on the bed. I groaned, placing a hand on my forehead.

What happened last night? Why is my head still swimming and I feel so relaxed? I turned to the side to see someone was sleeping there. Then it hits me.

Rachel...!

She was here last night and we... I...I slowly moved the sheets away from her body. She was curled up in her sleep, wearing torn clothes and I could see blood stains on the bed.

Fuck! I quietly got out of the bed. Picking up the towel on the floor.

How did she get here?!Why was she here?!!.

I smacked my forehead, walking to the wardrobe. I quietly opened it, taking out my clothes. I pulled them on, glancing at the bed to be sure she wasn't awake.Who told her to come find me here?.

Anna?... I sighed.

That incompetent bitch of a secretary.I closed the wardrobe, wearing my sneakers immediately. When I was done, I walked to the bed, staring down at Rachel's face. I could see her cheek was red, like she was being hit or something.

I sighed, seeing the pain on her face.

I did this. It's all my fault. I raped her last night.Why did she have to come here?.

I felt a deep anger in me as I kept staring at her face. She needs new clothes. Medics to help soothe the pain she might be feeling. I ran my fingers into my hair, thinking of what to do.

I picked up the car keys on the cupboard beside the bed, my eyes not leaving her.I turned around to leave, taking out my phone. I left the room, scrolling down my phone in search of Katie, my personal shopper's number.

I dialed her number as I approached the elevator. It was too early, so I was hoping that she picks the call. It rang for several minutes, she finally picked.

"Boss?

So early?" Katie asked."Sorry about that, Katie. I need you to do something for me urgently. Can you get clothes for a medium sized lady? And include new sets of underwear and pain relief. I will send to you her sizes but be sure to get it to the address I will send to you. Don't worry about the cash, you will get a notification in the next twenty minutes."

"Uhm, What time do you want me to get them there?"

"Before 6 o'clock, that will be fine." I replied, hitting the elevator button."Alright boss, have a nice day.

I will call you when it's done.""Good." I hanged up, stuffing the phone into my pocket.I sighed, entering the elevator. That...! UGH!!

I should have told Anna not to let anyone know about my whereabouts. But still, why the hell did she tell Rachel?.

The elevator opened as I arrived at the last floor. I stepped out of it. I was in a war with myself and my thoughts.

The more I thought about, the more angrier I became."Good day sir" the receptionist greeted as I walked past her.I halted on my steps, turning to the side to look at her."

Great morning, isn't it?..." She gave me a beautiful smile."... room 515 is still in use and please, send the room service to go clean up the mess.

Besides, aren't you the lady that was seated here last night?"She smiled."Yes sir."

"You didn't tell me that this hotel let's people in to visit a person without informing them." She gave me a perplexed look."Sir. I... I don't understand what you are saying sir."I approached the front desk."Did she tip you to let her in? And how much?. As a receptionist, you are meant to be trustworthy and reliable.

You are not to collect bribes. What if it was a serial killer or an assassin? Is that how one could die in this hotel?"She sank in her chair, staring into my eyes."

I am so sorry sir. She said she was a family member and she looked really innocent."I furrowed my brows.

"Really?

Is that how gullible you can be?. Ha..." I chuckled, stroking my jaw gently,"... maybe when you lose your job, you will understand how things work. Nobody got hurt... thankfully..." I averted my eyes from her gaze,"... do your job well or there won't be next times.

Have a wonderful day." I said, turning around to leave.I just hope that with what happened last night, it won't destroy everything I was trying to build.

I also hope, I didn't say anything to her that might have given her a clue about who I was..... I drove to my mansion, barging into the place as I was told by Billy that Anna was around after speed dialing him earlier.

I walked into the living room to see her, waiting. On seeing her face, I was still mad angry. "Why did you give her the address to the hotel?!"She went cold immediately, trembling as I approached her."B-B-Boss... I... I..."

"You What?!" I snapped.She went on her knees immediately.

"Boss!

I swear on my life, I never wanted to. I told her not to bother but she was still adamant. I thought that if she was with you, nothing bad would happen.

"I scowled."You thought nonsense, Anna! Do you have any idea what happened last night?!! What if I was violent enough to have strangled her to death?!!!"

She jolted, and I could smell her fear."S-Sir... I am sorry. Please, I am so sorry. I only c-cared for your vitality. I just w-wanted to make sure that you weren't left alone"I stared at her for a while, thinking of what to do or say to her."

Though I have great fondness for you as my PA, you disappointed me Anna...." I paused, swallowing what I was about saying.

I ruffled my hair, turning around to avoid looking into her eyes,"...

if you have a lawyer, you had better write your will.

Because, if I had said something to her in the state i was in last night, and she figures the puzzle..." I clenched my fists,"...I won't hesitate in taking your life and you know, I don't give empty threats."

She wailed."I'm sorry boss. I truly am."I frowned."No need to be sorry about anything.

The deed has been done." I said, taking my leave.

••••🍀Rachel🍀 VRRR! VRRR!! And then a ringtone. I slowly opened my eyes, staring at the ceiling. I sat up on the bed, groaning. I pushed my curls backwards, feeling my achy cheek.

It still hurts from the slap I had received from last night.My back aches, my stomach hurts and I could feel a terrible pain inside of me.

I quickly glanced to the side of the bed to see that no one was in it. Where did he go?!"Hello ma'am" a voice greeted.

I thrashed my head in front, to see a lady slowly getting up from a couch. She held shopping bags.I looked down at my body, I was naked.

I mechanically pulled up the blood stained covers, using it to cover my bosom."Who the fuck are you?

Where is Jake?

How, How did you get in here?""Ma'am,I am Mr Jake's personal shopper. He wanted you to have these." She came closer, placing the shopping bags on the bed.I frowned.

"What's in there?" I asked.She began taking out the clothes and fresh sets of underwear. What is this?New clothes and underwear? What in God's name is wrong with that bastard?!!!

After raping a vulnerable woman, he left the hotel without saying a word to me. He then tells his personal shopper to get me clothes. I held the covers tightly as I bit my lower lip.He is moron! A motherfucking, scallywag!!A fucking pervert who abuses drugs and does what he likes!!!

A deceptive con man!!!"

Are you alright ma'am?" She asked.I shut my head up to look at her.

"Yeah... yeah... the clothes..." I glanced at them,"... they are nice.""Of course ma'am. Mr Jake trusts me enough with his fashion taste.

You see, these clothes are pretty expensive. He dropped a lot of cash for them all and the underwear, they are all from Victoria Secrets store.

I don't know if you like the Elle's collections..." she emptied a shopping bag which had underwear in it on the bed,"... I bought some if you like their brand."I looked away from the pretty sets and attractive clothes that was displayed on the bed.This fucker is darn smart!

Using this to cover up for everything he did to me last night and thinking I will be charmed by it. What a human... even Neanderthals won't behave this stupid."

Thank you very much. They are all too nice for me to reject them..." I said, picking up my phone that was laid on the cupboard beside me. I saw that I had missed calls and they were from Zoe.
