A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

118 Penance

Silvia Kane’s eyes widened and her already drumming heart intensified in its action. Her whole body trembled and sweat beaded her forehead. A million questions raced through her mind and a drop of urine escaped her body when Luke called her name again.

“Silvia Kane!” Luke’s deep and chilly voice conveyed his displeasure, at being kept waiting.

“Sir!” Silvia responded in a high-pitched voice as though she was in a military school and a major general just called her name.

Her awkward but funny behavior didn’t go unnoticed, as some staff members chuckled. Even Luke was amused by her response but he maintained a piqued expression and waited by the door until she walked up to him, quivering like deer in the presence of a legendary fierce lion.

“Don’t you ever keep me waiting again,” Luke warned? “Quickly sign the confidentiality agreement and come down to the former CEO’s office.”

“Yes, Sir!” Silvia replied in a weird voice, as though she had been suddenly struck with tonsils.

Luke walked out of the conference room without sparing her a second glance or showing any sign of sympathy for her disoriented state.

When Luke was comfortably seated in Chloe’s former office, the color on his face drained as he carefully scrutinized the lavishly decorated office.

“What an ungrateful and flamboyant brat,” Luke spat out between clenched jaw. “She would have sunk the family ship if Albert had not wisely cut her off. She deserves nothing but instant death for the shame and humiliation she had brought on Robinson’s family name.”

.....

He brought out his mobile phone and scrolled through some pictures in his gallery. When he saw the beautiful and angelic face of his supposed arch-enemy, he smiled. He felt his heart skip a beat as he stared into her hypnotic jade-green eyes. An erotic thought crossed his mind but he quickly stifled it. He knew she was married to a monstrous being, thanks to all of Albert’s warnings.

Ever since Luke was prepped to take over the newly branded AR fashion company, he had been researching to get more information about Ariella. He had been able to gather sufficient information about the way she had been treated unfairly by her past foolish employers. He was more perplexed when he found out that the position she deserved was given to Silvia, who happened to be Kyle’s niece.

“Why did those idiots deprive Ariella of something so intangible as the position of a creative director? Why did they put unnecessary family yearning first before business and profitability? Why did they stoop so low by stealing her design even after humiliating her?” Luke’s head ached from numerous burning questions.

A gentle tap on the door brought him out of his annoying thoughts.

“Come in!” Luke said in a chilly tone.

Silvia opened the door and took cautious steps into the office.

“Can you shut the door!” Luke’s glares were ferocious.

Silvia quickly walked back to the door and shut it with trembling hands. She slowly turned around and walked back towards Luke. Her eyes darted around but avoided his deadly glares.

When Silvia was a few meters away from his desk, she stood still.

“From all the information I’ve gathered about you, this office used to be one of your favorite hangout spots. So, there is absolutely no need to panic. Why don’t you take a seat and wipe off that disgusting look from your face.” Luke relaxed his face in order to give room for her to do the same.

However, the result he got from her was the opposite. Instead of a calmer expression, she was behaving like someone who had a timed explosive device strapped to her head. She took careful but frightful steps towards a seat and sat down timidly, with her head bowed and eyes tightly shut.

Luke sighed in frustration and continued speaking while ignoring her behavior. “How did your uncle get himself entangled in that accident?”

Silvia bit down her lower lips to stifle her anxiety before responding. “He claimed that he got an anonymous call, stating that I was involved in a fatal accident. On his way to visit me at the hospital, he was run over by an unknown driver.”

Luke chuckled grimly. Being Albert’s prodigy for over twelve years has taught him so many tricks in life. For instance, he could tell that the hit on Kyle was premeditated. Also, since Frost was still held prisoner by Ella’s husband, he knew that Silvia could be next if she stepped out of line.

“I’m aware that you and your uncle played Ariella for a fool when you deceived her and took over her position. You were among the people who taunted her during her last days here at the company. Also, you stood by Chloe when she shredded Ariella until things took this ugly turn.” Like paused for a while to catch his breath and then continued.

“Nevertheless, that’s not the reason why I have called you. This company is currently going through the fire because of all the evil schemes you and your cohorts have planned against Ariella. Hence, as a way of resolving the bitter blood between both companies, you are going to do something for me which might cost you your life. Consider this your penance for all the torments you have brought on Ariella and this company at large.”

Luke’s eyes suddenly turned bloodshot. “Look into my eyes, Silvia.”

Silvia quickly obeyed as though she was hypnotized.

“if you dare back out from this deal which I’m going to tell you now, you will curse the day you were born. I am going to do terrible things to you that even the devil will be too horrified to watch.”

Jane White fluttered open her weak eyes, which quickly adjusted to the dimly lit room, where she was locked up. Struggling a bit and feeling hopeless, she sat up on the concrete floor of a voice-proof bunk, wearing nothing but her mini bathrobe. This was the same bathrobe she had been wearing when she was kidnapped from her condo.

Her head was banging, her heart was pounding, her pulse rate had skyrocketed and she felt unbearable pains all over her body. The pain was more severe between her thighs. She gently placed her right hand to access her messy, swollen, and sore lady part.

“Oh no!” She cried out in agony.

“Why me! Why me? How many men r*ped me?”
