《The Revenge Of A Businessman》Chapter 5
Advertisement
The party will be starting in about 2 hours. I have to start getting ready. I went to take a shower and washed my hair. I came out and dry my hair and decide to curl it which I never did before. I took out the curler which was still in its box in the corner of my wardrobe. I curled my hair and tied it in a ponytail across my shoulders. I put on some foundation and a blue eye-shadow with a bit of silver glitter. I put on mascara and a light pink lipstick. I put on my dress and my shoes before grabbing a silver purse which had my phone and my house keys.
I was now ready to meet my new boss!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before going inside I made sure that I was okay.
I entered inside and was immediately greeted.
“Hey Mia”
I turned and saw Jordan.
I greeted her back and asked her how was she.
“I'm fine and I must say you look very sexy in this dress.”
I was now blushing. I didn't expect a girl to tell me this.
I thanked her and said the same to her. She was wearing a long red strapless dress with black heels even though her dress was covering her shoes, knowing Jordan it must have been a black heels as black was her favourite colour.
“Did you see Gabriel?”
“Yeah he's in the backyard.”
“Thanks. See you later!”
I went to grab a drink before going to look for Gabriel. I saw Gabriel standing near the pool talking on the phone.
I waited for him to finish before joining him.
“Hey Gabriel” I greeted him.
He turned and stared at me.
“What's wrong? Is there something wrong on me?” I asked while touching my face.
He immediately grabbed my hand and said:
“No you are...beautiful.”
I was now stunned. Gabriel was still staring at me until someone cleared their throat and we both turned to see who it was.
It was Lucas an employee and a great friend of ours.
“I'm sorry but the new boss has come and is asking for you Gabriel.” He said.
“Tell him I'm coming!”

“Okay! See you then!”
“Mia come I'll introduced you to my friend and your new boss.”
Yeah! Was all I could say?
We enter in the room and Gabriel started looking for his friend.
“There he is!” Gabriel said pointing towards the bar.
I looked in the direction of the bar. I saw a huge figure with broad shoulders wearing a black suit. Gabriel and I walked to the bar.
“Hi J” Gabriel said when we reached him.
J? What sort of name is this?
The man turned and I got the shock of my life.
“YOU” We both said in unison.
Gabriel had the look you-know-each-other on his face.
I did not bother telling him and I was surprised to see that ‘J’ also did not answer him.
He continued to stare at me like the other day.
Then Gabriel cleared his throat and we both turned to him.
“Well this is Jacob Max; your new boss and this is Amelia Isabella my secretary.” He said winking at me.
I was damn sure that my face was now red like a tomato.
We did not bother to shake our hands.
I turned to Gabriel and I had a sorry look on my face and said excuse me.
I went to the bar and ask for a strong drink.
This man was my boss! I cannot accept this. I hate him too much and I cannot work with him. But I'm glad that I will be the secretary of Gabriel and not his.
If I have to become his secretary then I would leave the job. After finishing my drink I went to talk with Jordan a bit.
Suddenly my eyes met his and we continued to stare as if we were challenging each other to break first. He looked back at Gabriel who did not notice anything. He was talking something to him but I could not hear anything but I'm sure that he was talking about me as they were continuously looking at me.
After drinking so much I felt the need to go to the toilet. I stood up and went directly in the loo. I came out and was looking at myself in the mirror when I heard the door closing behind me.

I turned and saw my arrogant boss Jacob standing there. What was he doing in a ladies bathroom? I thought. I turned back to the mirror and ignored him.
Suddenly I felt someone holding my wrist. I turned and saw him.
“Let go of my wrist. You're hurting me.”
I was pinned against the wall with both my hands at the top of my head. I look him straight in his eyes and said what. He did not answer me but lean closer. Our face was now close. I was now a little bit scared. Was he going to hurt me? I opened my mouth to say something but just then his mouth crashed into mine.
I stood there like a statue. I did not know what to do! Just then he held my wrists with only one of his hand and the other one was on my thigh slowly going up.
Just then he started to lift my dress and I gasped. As soon as my mouth opened he put his tongue in it and started exploring.
I don't know what took me and I started to kiss him back.
Our lips were now moving in sync. He let go of my hands and put his hands on my waist pulling me closer to him and I wrapped my hands behind his neck deepening the kiss.
Just then I don't know what took him and he stopped. I came back to my senses and realised what I've done. He took a step back and snapped at me:
“What did you just do?”
I was shocked. “You kissed me first” I said.
He turned his head and sigh. He again turned to me. I could not look at him in the eyes.
“I'm sorry.” He said.
I lift my head and I was like ‘really?’
He continued.
“Just forget about the kiss and I'm sorry once again.”
He turned to the door and opened the door and went.
I look in the mirror once again before going in the hall. I didn't want anyone to know that I just make out in the bathroom. As I came out Jordan came to me and asked:
“Where were you? I've been searching for you for about 30 mins.”
What? I've been making out with my new boss for about 30 mins! I said in my mind.
“I'm sorry I was near the pool. I wanted to be alone for some minutes.” I said quickly.
“It's ok. Anyway Gabriel is searching for you.”
“Where is he?” I asked her.
“There!” she said showing me where he was.
“Thanks!”
“Okay then bye I'm going home!” she said waving at me.
I waved back at her!
I went to Gabriel and I was about to take a step back as soon as I saw who was standing next to him but Gabriel noticed me. I did not want to go there when he was talking to Jacob. I forced a smile and went to him.
“You were looking for me?”
I could feel Jacob's eyes on me. I did not have the courage to look in his eyes. Then Gabriel asked me where was I?
‘I was in the bathroom making out with this man over here!’ I wanted to tell him but I knew that I couldn't tell him such a thing. But I decided to lie.
“I was near the pool.”
I could see Jacob smirking in the corner of my eyes. Gabriel did not tell me anything.
“Gabriel I've got to go! Bye.”
“Okay! See you tomorrow.”
He pulled me to him and gave me a peck on the cheek.
Now I was blushing.
Then I saw Jacob staring at Gabriel. I could see that he was very angry. I ignored him and went to my car and drove back home.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got back home and took off all my make-up and my dress and went directly to bed. I could not sleep all night even if I was tired. I was thinking about the kiss. I really like his lips on mine. I could still feel the taste on my lips. Then I remember that this was the same Jacob Max which I hate. I cannot think of him. I cannot fall in love with him. And this can't happen while we work together. I have to leave this job!

Decompose!
Dear diary. When you read stories about some people missing and returning after years of absence claiming they were living in another world, your first reaction is to scoff and dismiss a story as a tall tale, right? I know I did. All the time. Until it happened to me and I no longer did. That day was today. Some god of thunder smote me. If it were Chris Hemsworth, I wouldn't mind but it was some barbaric Hitite god that abaondned Earth some four millennia ago. Yes, what can I say? I love the seventh art. I have more hours watching movies than any other activity, including sleep. What? Do you think I'm exaggerating? Maybe I am. I'll really miss hollywood the most. And my biggest regret is that I never got to visit the holy city of cinema. I did not come to another world to be a hero even though there was hints that they hoped I'd save it. I did not come with overpowered abilities able to, dunno, leap tall castles in a single bound, faster than a speeding crossbow bolt, be more powerful than a eight-horse carriage, the bounds. No. After the asshole god that murdered me brought me to his world, he gave me some boons from his discount bin and "The Power of my Soul (tm)". Forgive my french, I hope you understand I am rather upset at dying. And he somehow decided that my power is to recycle stuff. How awesome is that? Not much at first, I must admit. At least I got all my camping stuff and equipment with me. There's no lycra in the other world. I'll make it someday, but that day is not today. So here I am. In another world, in the middle of nowhere. I'm no heroine. As the song goes, I'm your basic average girl. And I'm assumed to be here to save the world. But almost everything can stop me, because I'm not named Kim. Wish me luck, diary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This novel is going have the following features: slow-paced slice-of-life No GameLit / LitRPG elements. Movie references. Sandra likes the seventh art. Journal / diary style crafting (includes chemistry, engineering and metallurgy) low magic technological advancement (for Sandra, at least. She is not against sharing though) personal relations clash of perception between the modern and ancient customs. bits of tension, fighting, and plot here and there. I won't repeat myself though. Once she crafts a good batch of soap, for example, she'll just note, "I crafted soap again." Once it is estabilished how she obtains compound X, compound X2 that is obtainable from the same process will also just be mentioned. I'll try to be as realistic as I can with the crafting, chemistry, and technology. Cover: Public Domain Image by StockSnap from Pixabay. No attribution required but we do it anyway.

Cutting to Life: an NPC LitRPG (Battle Royale)
Nikola is an NPC in The World of Wills, a video game where players can feel sensations as if they were truly there. She leads a life of bloodshed and murder - that is, until one day she wakes up sapient. Just as she begins thinking real, non-scripted thoughts and making connections, she and the players in the game are told that if they die in the game, they die in real life - and it's time to get killing. But what of Nikola, the emerging AI consciousness? How does she win in a game that can only end in her being wiped from existence at the end of it all? - Updates Mondays and Fridays. Cutting to Life is a slow-burn LitRPG with a villainous (later anti-hero, or maybe still villainous, haha) female lead.It's told from the perspective of Nikola, an NPC within the World of Wills who's become sapient and is now mysteriously able to play the game as a PC. It's quite light for a LitRPG, but the system and stats become more of a focus later when Nikola herself can access them.The story gradually builds into a Battle Royale where the players' lives are on the line (if you die in the game, you die in real life), and only one party of savvy adventurers can win. They'll have to spend their time and stats wisely as dungeons promising rare gear float down from the sky - but is a legendary sword worth killing someone for, knowing they'll stay dead forever? - This story is told in third person, past tense.- This is a slow-burn LitRPG that spends a lot of time establishing its setting and characters, because I believe this will make for a better payoff in the end. As such, the Battle Royale doesn't start until chapter 30 or so.- Chapters are anywhere between 800 words and 3000 words long.- Book cover by Vixeona.Cutting to Life is also being posted on SPB and Scribble Hub.Thank you sincerely for reading.
