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.

Work is a hundred times harder without you

The following day.

Zaria kept her office since it was a waste of time to move to a different office when it was only a temporary arrangement. Besides, Lucy's new office was near Desmond's so it was still easy for her to move about.

In the morning when Lucy arrived, she stood before her nervously. She had worked for her father before. Why was she so tense working for her mother?

"I believe you have something to tell me." Lucy looked up and asked, totally in her official mode. She seemed to be treating her like she would treat any other assistant which made things easier and less awkward.

Zaria nodded. "Mum, there's someone who needs your audience. Natalie Sparks."

Lucy raised an eyebrow at Zaria's way of reporting it. "And there is a reason why you hope for me to reject her?"

She was embarrassed after being exposed but kept her stance. "I have no right to decide whether or not you should meet anyone. Shall I let her in?"
