Nikita woke up feeling sore all over her body. She sat upright on the bed trying to figure out what happened. She turned and saw an unfamiliar figure on the other side of the bed sleeping soundly, she gasped and quickly had a flashback of what happened.
After the flashback, she got up but fell immediately because she couldn't feel her legs. She managed and get up, changed Into her clothes quickly. Luckily for her the stranger who's made her crippled was kind enough not to tear her dress but he tear her down there which hurts so badly. She cursed and limped out of the room cursing the man for putting her in that messy position and worst of it all his stupid brother.
She existed the club and checked her watch and found out it was an hour past working time and she had a contract to sign with the LORENISO FASHION INDUSTRY. She rushed to the roadside and luckily, she got a cab the moment reached there.
She couldn't go to her house because it was too far from the area so she had to crush at Amanda's place and luckily for her Amanda was about to leave the house when she reached.
"Niki, what happened to you? You look like you've worked out and you look like a mess. And why are you still in this dress? Did you go home yesterday?" Amanda asked frowning her brows in confusion.
"Can we talk about this later? I need to get to work but I don't have anything to wear and it's today the contract will be signed." She said in a rush.
Amanda just nodded and sent her to her room.
Lorenzo woke up an hour later. He roamed his hand on the bed looking for the woman he spent the night with but there was no trace of her in the room. Just her floral scent lingering too faint in the room. He got out of the bed and went to the bathroom but there was no sign of her. He took his phone and dialed the manager's number.
"I want surveillance of any movement that went on this morning around the corridor to the exit. In five minutes" That came his firm voice. He hanged up not waiting for the manager's reply.
Three minutes later he received the surveillance. He checked the footage and found out it was the same woman who made his heart flattered. Now he wanted to posses her and make her his forever. He smiled at the idea of feeling her soft skin under his again and the way she moaned eveyrtime he thrust into her. He lifted the blanket and found stains of blood on it. Was she a virgin?He was still lost, when his phone rang.
"What's it?" Came his firmand cold voice.
"Hermm sir... I wanted to remind you of the contract signing with the MANORISA." His assistant said with shaky voice from the other side of the call.
"I won't make it. Sign the contract with them, tell them the terms and the policies we'll be offering them and send flowers to the CEO and a compensation." He said and hanged up before his assistant could ask why?
"Ms. Marcelo, please I'm sorry but the boss can't make it to the contract signing so I think we'll have to do it without him."
"Oh, it's fine. Actually signing it without him will reduce the tension I'm feeling a bit." Nikita said and took the contract. She read through then, after she was satisfied with their policies, she signed it.
"Thank you very much Mr Thorne and I'm looking forward to working with you." She said after a handshake then left with her assistant.
"Nazi, go to the company, I'll come along I have something I need to deal with." She said and got a nod from Nazi. She took the company's car while Nikita waited for Amanda to come pick her up.
Right after Nazi left, Amanda's came to pick her up with her new pink Ferrari.
Without a word Nikita slipped into the car fastened her seatbelt because she knew it was going to be a crazy drive.
"Shall we?" Amanda asked then stepped on the accelerator. The car started moving, it's very normal at the beginning but it turned crazier five minutes later.
Upon reaching their destination that was the club house, Nikita had to poke because of how crazy the driver was.
"Niki, again? I thought you've gotten over how I drive." Amanda asked.
"Gotten over? Who in her right sense will get over your driving?" Nikita asked.
"Fine I'm sorry. Lets go and look for the person who made you like this." Amanda said tugging her hands around Nikita's arm.
Earlier, when Nikita went to Amanda's house, she told her what happened and how she was tricked by the person who helped her when they were in the club and how she got her first time taken.
Meanwhile, in the Basile Mansion. Lorenzo entered the house then the aura in the whole building changed. The maids rushed outside, formed a long and greeted him but none of their greetings were replied. When he opened the door and entered, all the people in the room tensed especially his brother who was eating his breakfast at the dinning table.
"Leonardo Basile! Where are you?!" He asked making Leo's heart sink. He stood up and rushed take the elevator upstairs knowing well only his mother can save him from the rupture that's to come upon him. He was fast enough to press on the button to close the door before Lorenzo reached there.
"Mom, save me." Leo shouted, knowing well that if the elevator is not working, then the stairs is still there and he knows his brother like his shorts. When his predatory mode activates, he'll do anything to get his prey.
A woman is her early fifties came out but she looked very young to be in her fifties.
" What's it again?" She asked.
"Are you kidding me? Seriously Leo you ran to your mother to save you?" Lorenzo asked when he reached where his mother and Leo was.
"Lory, you're home." Mrs Basile said and rushed to hug him.
Lorenzo disengage from the hug and kicked Leo in the stomach making him groan in pain.
"Lory, what was that for" His mom asked and rushed to help Leo up.
"Leo, I'm warning you. Don't ever pull that shit on me again." He warned sounding like a hurricane.
"What happened? What's going on? Can someone talk to me?" Mrs Basile asked sounding worried.
"Ask your son." Lorenzo said and left the place taking the elevator downstairs.
In the club house, Amanda was seen talking to the manager and it sounded like she was pleading with him. After much plead the manager finally nodded.
"He said we can go check it." She said and Nikita nodded.
They both to the surveillance room. The man incharge of the place seached through all the surveillance but he couldn't find anything related to what they came to ask.
"Ms, I'm sorry but there nothing as what you're saying." The Man said and they couldn't argue with him further. They just nodded and left the place.
Nikita sighed for what seems like a thousand times. "I can believe there's no surveillance on that day." She said and shook her head. "I think something is wrong." The her eye widened suddenly. "Or could it be that he told them to delete it so we won't find anything to sue him?" She said and Amanda nodded in agreement.
"I think you're right but now that there's no evidence to prove what we're saying, I think we should drop the case. The damaged had been done and there nothing we could do. We just have to continue moving forward and stop thinking about the past." Amanda said and Niki sighed.
"I think you're right." Then a hit on Amanda's shoulder. "I never knew you were this wise." She said and Amanda's jaw dropped.
"What do you mean?" She asked standing in akimbo.
"Oh I meant I didn't know my foolish self had a wiser friend like you." Nikita said smiling awkwardly.
"You're right, I'm were wise." Amanda praise herself and went to sit in the car.
After the tensed moment in the Basile Mansion, Lorenzo took his car and drove out of the compound but received a call.
"Mr Basile..."
"If it's not something important just hang up." He said with so much annoyance in his voice.
"It's about the surveillance." The other man said with fear in this voice.
"Talk." He said pulling over at the road side.
"Herr... Two women came here and they asked about the surveillance. One of them looked like the other woman in the footage but because you told us not to show it to anyone, we didn't allow them see it." The man said form the other side.
"Did they left anything you could contact them with?"
"Yeah that woman from the footage left her business card. I'll send you the information." The Man said and hanged up.
Right after he hanged up, Lorenzo received the information about the lady.
"Nikita Marcelo, CEO of MANORISA FASHION DESIGNS. Nikita Marcelo." He said the name like he was tasting it. He smiled to himself and drove off.
