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.

Unexpected scheme (3)

Evan had only come rushing to check out the situation when he heard about Desmond and Zaria's sudden return and quickly joined in the search. He didn't expect to find something so soon and it infuriated him as well. 

"Nothing good ever comes out of Angela appearing anywhere. She's a jinx on legs." 

"What was she doing at the school?" Zaria asked. "When was this? More importantly, why didn't anyone say anything about it?" 

"Yesterday." He answered.  "Laia didn't say much. In fact, she didn't even tell anyone she saw Angela until her father asked if she knew where Rosaly could have gone." 

"Do you think we can ask her about it?" She asked, even though she knew she was clawing at straws. There was no way Laia would know much more than she had already let on. 

As expected, Evan's answer wasn't in the least bit consoling. "I don't think she would know much. She has a bad impression on Angela. She would run away from her."
