Chapter 10 The new man II
EMILY POV
“Emily”
I heard him call, making me flinch from fear at how cold and deep his voice was.
He was standing few metres away from me and I couldn’t help but to sniff in his delicious and expensive scent.
I slowly opened my eyes and discovered he was looking at me, making me swallow the lump which I didn’t know I had in my throat.
“Sir Niguel.”
I muttered, trying hard to hide the fear and nervousness in me but I knew I couldn’t from the way my body shook so badly.
“Hope I didn’t make you wait for long?”
He asked, moving closer to me which I took as an advantage to continue sniffing in his scent.
“No… No of course not.”
I shuttered, forcing out a smile.
“Good, now let’s head back home.”
He declared and without waiting for another word from me, turned his back and started making his way towards the door.
“Sir… But… But the party hasn’t even started yet.”
I tried to protest to which he didn’t even paid attention to.
“Beautiful jerk.”
I whispered, slowly trailing behind him but couldn’t catch up to his pace no matter how hard I tried, all thanks to my heels.
“Stupid heels”
I cursed silently.

“We are here Emily.”
Niguel announced, waking the already sleeping Emily from sleep as she looked through the car window only to discover they were at the front of her home.
“Thanks for the ride, sir Niguel.”
She muttered, yawning loudly as she rubbed her still sleepy eyes.
She got down from the car and after bidding him farewell, made her way into her home.
“Emily!!”
A voice squealed immediately she opened the door to her room and slowly looking up discovered it was none other than her crazy best friend Olivia.
“Olive, you didn’t tell me you’ll be sleeping over.”
Emily uttered earning a chuckle from Olivia.
“I didn’t want to miss the gist, so quickly have a shower and come gist me.”
She uttered, earning a disbelief stare from Emily.
“C’mon now Em, don’t give me those eyes, I waited so long for you already.”
She added, pouting her lips which in turn made Emily let out a laugh.
“Go to sleep olive, it’s already so late.”
Emily declared, taking off her clothes as she got ready to have her bath.
“Finally!”
She yelled, taking off the heels from her foots and headed straight to the bathroom.
She came out minutes later and saw Olivia sitting on the bed, patiently waiting for her.
“Oh c’mon Olive, go to bed already.”
She persuaded, drying her hair with a towel.
“So I saw him drop you off, tell me Em, did you guys, um, you know, kiss?”
Olivia asked earning another round of laughter from Emily.
“He’s not my boyfriend Olivia, or close to being my boyfriend, he’s my boss for God sake!”
Emily emphasized making Olivia roll her eyes.
“Oh please Emily, according to the books I’ve read, a romantic relationship between the boss and his worker is very much possible and even more romantic.”
Olivia explained.
“Well this is reality Olive and not some novel you read, so wake up! Wake up Olivia!”
Emily halfyelled as she laid on the bed.
“Don’t tell me you’re preparing to sleep Em, you haven’t told me a thing yet.”
“That’s because nothing happened Olive, nothing happened okay? but I did meet this handsome dude whoose name was Lucas.”
Emily muttered making Olivia widened her eyes in excitement.
Finally some gist!
“You called this nothing happened? So tell me about this Lucas of a guy, is he handsome? Hot? Rich? Or perhaps…
“He’s handsome, hot and all that and he definitely looked rich but like I said, nothing happened.
He congratulated me of getting the job at Niguel’s company and that was the end, and also the end for me too and this conversation, goodnight Olivia, I’ll tell you in details tomorrow.”
Emily muttered and soon enough her snores filled the room.
“Sleeping so soon, goodnight dummy.”
Olivia whispered as she also finally closed her eyes for a goodnight sleep.NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Niguel car came to an halt in his large compound and he alighted from it looking like a devil who was about to go on a blood bath any moment from then.
He made his way into his mansion and headed straight to the dark room, ignoring the greetings of his trembling servants as he walked past them.
“Boss”
One of his boys called, opening the door to the dark room and without sparing him a glance, Niguel made his way into the dark room.
The dark room was a secret room in Niguel’s mansion which was also called the torture room. It was where Niguel prisoners or his betrayals were kept and tortured until they were released or probably killed.
Apart from being the torture room, the dark room was also where the underground businesses were done, where different types of dark informations entered but never left the room.
“James!”
Niguel voice thundered in the room and soon enough a boy came standing in front of him while bowing slightly.
“Boss”
He muttered, obviously trembling from fear.
“Repeat what you told me over the phone.”
Niguel ordered and without wasting another second the boy repeated what he had told him during the party.
“I got the clip I’ve been working on for the past two years boss and after watching it discovered she was not in the car by the time of the accident.”
James repeated, rushing his words in the process.
“You can also watch it yourself boss.”
He added, pointing towards a computer which was on a table in the room.
“Play it.”
Niguel ordered to which the boy didn’t waste another second before playing the clip for Niguel to watch.
Niguel stared closely at the screen as he saw a lady walk out of a building and no one needed to tell him who it was before he knew who it was.
“Jenna.”
He whispered, still staring at the screen as the lady in the clip entered the car but ran out almost immediately before the car finally exploded.
“She’s alive, Jenna’s alive.”
