“How much longer are you going to pretend like you don’t know I’m Antonio Garcia?” Antonio asked, finally reaching his limit with the woman standing in front of him.
She was a good actress, he had to give her that but that was where his niceness ended. He had a meeting to get to, and the woman standing in front of him was delaying him.
Zabelle gulped in fear and her eyes further widened in horror. The one person she had been avoiding w she had crossed paths with. No wonder he looked familiar. She must have seen him on a media platfor
ne person
“Sir, I promise, I didn’t know you were the one. I was asked to deliver…” she tried to explain, but Antonio scoffed, cutting her off.
The fact that she was still lying irritated him, and so he threw the document away, and he moved closer to her. “You must be a fool to think that I would believe that you didn’t know especially when the supposed merger documents you are delivering have already been delivered to me,” he stated and Zabelle frowned over this fact.
“I promise, I didn’t know,” Zabelle responded as she backed away from Antonio. However, she ran out of space when her back touched the elevator and Antonio came to stand in front of her.
“How cheap must you be to resort to such tricks to get my attention?” He probed as he tilted his head to look at Zabelle. “Do
you with your average looks?” think if I ever wanted to settle down, it would be
you
“Excuse me?” Zabelle gritted her teeth as his words reminded her of how she had been compared to her sister when she was younger. She had always felt inferior to her younger sister due to this and Antonio’s words invoked those feelings.
“Did I stutter?” Antonio squinted his eyes as he placed a hand beside her head which further made Zabelle feel suffocated. “How narcissistic must you be to think that every lady who comes into contact with you wants to date you?” She threw the question at him and Antonio chuckled. However, it wasn’t a friendly one as always.
“Did I not see the pictures clearly?” He retorted as he looked down at the woman. She was so small that it would be easy to kill her and the thought of it seemed alluring.
“Even after getting caught, you still retort to lying, but you know I’m feeling generous today, and so I’ll give you what you want, my attention,” he gibbed and Zabelle felt chills creep up her spine over his words.
Without thinking twice about what the consequence of her action would be, she rammed her knee in between his legs as hard as she could, hitting the one place it was certain to hurt the most.
This was effective in getting him to step away from her
personal space,

in pain.
Antonio’s eyes became bloodshot as he realized what had just happened. He raised his head to look at Zabelle and if looks could kill, she would have combusted into dust with how his gaze burned.
“How dare you?!” He raged.
He had never been hit by a woman before, and he found it insulting to be hit by one, falling at his feet asking for forgiveness for what she had done.
especially one who was supposed to be
“I bet every woman who has an interest in you does what I just did,” Zabelle mocked him. It was obvious that the man standing in front of her was an arrogant jerk who thought the whole world was at his feet to think that she was trying to gain his attention. She already had a boyfriend, and she had no interest in him.
“I swear you’re going to regret what you have just done for the rest of your life,” Antonio promised and Zabelle rolled her eyes. Even if he wanted to take it easy on her, that chance had been thrown out of the window. He would make sure he broke her over and over till death seemed like a better punishment.

“I already have a family who’s out to get me, get in line,” she retorted as she walked up to the elevator and turned the power back on. She started to push the buttons as she wanted nothing more than to get out of the elevator.
“You really don’t know who you’ve messed with. I’ll make you pay,” Antonio promised her.
“I honestly do pity the unlucky woman who will end up with you in the end,” Zabelle shook her head just as the doors thankfully opened. “But like I said before, get in line.” These were her final words to him before she stepped out of the elevator.
Antonio couldn’t believe the audacity of the woman who had just left. He was used to women drooling over him and trying
1 she sure as hell to get his attention, not assaulting him. The woman, whoever she was, had just messed with the de would get burnt.
His eyes darkened as he dipped his hand in his pocket and brought out his phone to make a phone call. The receiver picked up the call on the second ring. “A woman was just in my private elevator. I want her details by the end of the day,” he told the receiver, after which he disconnected the call.
He then proceeded to make another call. Antonio was ready to show the woman just how the rest of her life would be.
