Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

Veronica arrived at the 23rd floor of Amore Enterprise Incorporated before the secretary's big boss arrives. She finish up few things, check emails and prepare other things. She got this position because she's sharp and she was from Lawson's. They probably could use her.

That's her main point. During her interview, they ask her if she could give them good information from the company, she of course said that confidentiality was the top priority of the company and it worked. She use Tony a little since she resigned from the good company.

She haven't seen the big boss but she is ready to face that annoying face of his. He rarely comes out and only his secretary was doing all of the stuffs and she was the secretary's secretary. She fix her eyeglasses. Since she's too busy she didn't realize that someone has been watching her back, but then she stop when she felt something odd. It was goose bumps. She turn and saw the manager of Finance looking at her lustfully. But then he changed and smile at her.

She nods and greet him.

"Miss Masen, coffee?"

"No. Thank you." She said politely.

"You are too shy. We are going out tonight, you should come."

"I apologize Mr. Rivera but I have other things to attend to. Please excuse me." She turn around and she sneer. She could use him for something. She went to the office and sat down as she start doing her job.

It didn't take long when Secretary Sylvia who is always wearing red came up. She notice the new ruby necklace that she's wearing and her chest is really shaped up. She didn't know if she's trying to impress the boss or other men. But Sabrina had face Sylvia when they attacked their Training Center and she wasn't that good compare to Sabrina.

"Good Morning." She greets with her genuine smile. Sylvia smile back.

"I saw you with Tony Lawson." She said and sat down and she lean back forward from her own desk. "You seemed to be getting back together?" She asked like it was a great gossip.

Since Veronica went to acting school together with other agents, she lower her head like she's a shy type and bit her lower lip.

"Uhm, Tony has been trying to reach me but I think it's just flings…" She said.

"He looks so into you." Sylvia say. "If I were you, I would bang him until we both can't get up from bed. He's rich and a second from Gabriel Lawson."

"Well, I think being rich was a good thing for him. Not just that he was good looking." She said and flushes like she had just spoil something.

"Oh! Don't tell me that you are still a virgin?! The way you react—" Sylvia shook her head while clicking her tongue.

She wanted to roll her eyes and tell her "Of course I am still a virgin. I am not a slut like you who owns more than 10 boy toys." But of course, she just keep it in her mind. She knows every details from Sylvia. She tried to even seduce the big boss. Well, the boss favors her so—she isn't surprise when the man whore would actually bed her every night.

Her phone chimes and Sylvia gave her a very teasing smile. She check it and it was from Tony.

Tony: Just thinking about you.

She didn't text him back but Sylvia was snooping.

"Just tell him that you want him too." She sings a song.

To be a little stupid, she did reply Tony an emoji. Then another message came up.

Tony: Dinner tonight? I'll pick you up.

V: I'm quite busy.

She has a meeting with Catriona and Sabrina in the Elite Red Room Presidential Suite and before that Catriona and Veronica had talk about how they will beat up Tequila for giving them away to those men. She wonder what happen to Catriona and Enzo right now.

♥♥♥

Enzo was cooking her favorite while she's sitting in the living room with Versace pillowing his jaw over her lap. She's reading a book feeling at home, wearing Enzo's clothes. Marga just woke up and hasn't been home since yesterday, she didn't notice that Catriona was home. She frown and then stop and stare at her.

"Why are you here?" Marga asked like she was confronting her.

"Ask your step-brother." She mutter and keeps on reading. The smell of famishing food surrounded the kitchen reaching the living room. She was famished. Then Enzo came up from her back and kiss her top head.

"Your food is ready." He then scoop her chin and turn her face a little and kiss it passionately.

Marga rolled her eyes and scoff in disgust. After that kiss, Catriona still remember how he kiss the woman in the parking lot. But she shouldn't care right. After all, it was men's natural environment. After eating their lunch, Enzo and Catriona walk in the garden with Versace and he was holding her hand.

"So, are you going to tell me where it is?" Enzo asked.

"Why would I tell you?" She asked coldly. Enzo feel like she's been distant and they haven't had sex even after the party. But it was okay with him. No big deal. For him, her presence is enough. He could touch her, talk to her and feel her.

"I've been lonely."

"Hmm. I can see that." She said implying something. Enzo couldn't figure out what she meant. Then he thought of his mistake just few days ago.

"Are you jealous of Eunice?" He asked her. "We are just friends."

"Why would I be jealous over your friend?" She wasn't jealous. She was hurt. The woman was pretty and she looks like most girls and for Catriona, she has her own beauty and seduction where Enzo was drown to her. She feel betrayed. Soon Eunice will fill her presence in Enzo's life after she left.

"Right. You don't have to be jealous, Cat. I love you, my heart, my soul and my sexy body only belongs to you." She should laugh on his corny jokes but she remain quiet and in deep thought. Enzo noticed it.

Catriona has been distant. They used to cuddle together at night and kiss and make out and end up on making love but none of those happen. He was the one who's clingy all night and all day.

"Cat, what's the matter?"

"Let's end this." She said.

He wasn't that shock. He knew that she would eventually say it. But he will never agreed to it. She's been telling and telling him but he never agreed. He can't loose her in his life. He wanted her, all of her like he needed air to breathe and needed water to survive. Instead of weaning at her, he smile and patted her head.

"Don't talk nonsense. There's nothing to end."

"Enzo! I am fucking serious, let's end this relationship. We can't be together."

"Okay, you want to end this relationship? Let's end this and start a new one."

She punch his chest and punch it again. She's getting irritated. She wants to cry and tell him what she feel but she just couldn't.

"I want to end this!" Just when she's already throwing a tantrum at him, he hold her wrists, scoop her face and start kissing her passionately just to shut her up.

"Say that again and I will make sure that you'll never say those words again." He warned her. It sound so dangerous and make her stupid heart grow bigger.
