Chased By My Demon CEO Chapter 2
Advertisement
Viona walked into her new residence in a loft-type apartment. She deliberately chose the place because she wanted to keep some of her mother's stuff. Viona had already paid the rent for her apartment for the next year.
With the money left by her mother, she could support herself without having to live a miserable life. However, Viona was determined not to use the money for herself. She wanted to build another orphanage, just like what her mother did.
While tidying up some documents belonging to her mother, Viona came across a flyer she had picked up from an exhibition at the mall. It was a flyer about the entrance fees to one of the best universities in Ontario.
"I want to go to school here, but how can I have enough money for school," Viona thought as she looked at the flyer in her hand. Even though she had money from the house proceedings, she was determined not to touch it for her personal needs.
Because she was too tired to tidy her things, Viona finally fell asleep on her bed without changing her clothes. She also skipped dinner. The next morning, Viona went to the bank to deposit the money from the house sale proceeds. She didn't want to use it.
Viona saw her in her bank statements, she had 10 million CAD. She wanted to use the money to build an orphanage someday. Since her own money she currently had was far from enough, Viona needed work to increase her savings.
"Excuse me, can I have this flyer?" Viona asked a worker who was distributing flyers.
"My pleasure, Miss."
Viona read the announcement on the flyer. On it was a vacancy for a laundry staff. Viona enthusiastically walked towards the place written on the flyer in her hand. She chose to take the subway to go to her destination so that she could arrive more quickly.
"Thank you, Madam, for accepting me," Viona said thank you many times.
"No need to say thanks. You can start working tomorrow," said the laundry owner to Viona.
"Will do, Madame. Then, I'll take my leave now," Viona replied politely.
"See you tomorrow and don't be late. I hate late people the most!!" The lady said again.
With a big smile, Viona left her new workplace. This would be her first work. Viona should have continued her studies at university, but because she realized she had to share with so many foster siblings at home, she didn't even dream of going to university before.

"Viona!!!" Suddenly, came the voice of a man calling her name. It was Lexi, her senior in high school when she was a freshman.
"Lexi," said Viona in shock when she saw the person who called her.
"What are you doing here? Are you accompanying Maria to shop?" Asked Lexi repeatedly.
"My mother has passed away," Viona replied softly as she looked down. Every time she remembered her mother, she would feel sad again.
"What??? Come on, Viona, come with me," said Lexi surprised. He pulled Viona's hand to a coffee shop not far from the place they were at. Viona followed him.
"Where do you live now?" Lexi asked shortly after Viona finished her story.
"I rented a small apartment. I've also just got a job," Viona replied quietly.
"Why didn't you tell me that your orphanage was sold? I can help you Vio," said Lexi softly. He tried to touch Viona's hand.
When her hand was being touched by Lexi, Viona involuntarily squirmed. She quickly pulled her hand from the man's grasp.
"I'm sorry," said Viona. She was shaking because no man had ever touched her before.
"Sorry, Vio. I didn't mean to."
"It's okay, Lexi. It's getting dark now. I have to go home. Tomorrow is my first day of work," said Viona quickly.
Lexi stared at Viona's departure from behind the glass. Viona hurriedly got off to the subway station.
"This time, you can't get away from me, Vio," muttered Lexi irritably. He put out his cigarette in an ashtray.
During these three years, Viona was the only girl who rejected his love. Even the gossip spread in school said that Viona was the only virgin left in the school. She always refused invitations from her friends to go to bars or cafes to just hang out.
She always chose to go home to help her mother at the orphanage. Since Maria was considered an angel in her area, no one dared to mess with Viona.
In the subway, Viona sat next to a little girl with blonde hair who had red cheeks with cute freckles. She was probably around five years old, wearing an expensive outfit and a perfect ponytail that made her look even more adorable. Viona invited the little girl to chat during the trip.

"So, your name is Zevanya," Viona said softly, repeating the beautiful little girl's words next to her.
"Yes, I remember. Your name is Viona, right?" Zevanya's shrill voice answered Viona's words.
"Where are you going, Little Girl?" Viona asked softly.
"I'm going to my dad's office. It's my first time going on a subway... so, I'm very excited," Zefanya said with a big smile.
Viona noticed her expensive-looking outfit and realized this little girl must be a daughter of a wealthy family. To her, riding a train was an adventure, not a necessity.
"Be careful, okay," said Viona. "Where are you getting off?"
Zefanya turned to her nanny and asked the question with her eyes. The nanny smiled and nodded.
"It's the next station." She smiled at Zefanya. "Go ahead, say goodbye to Miss Viona."
"Goodbye, Viona," Zevanya waved her hand and smiled broadly. "Hope, we can meet again!"
"Bye, Zefanya. Take care."
"Excuse me, Miss," said Zeva's nanny.
Viona kept waving her hand at the little girl she had just met. She was reminded of her young foster siblings at the orphanage. Ahh.. she was so adorable. Zefanya chattered constantly during their journey and her enthusiasm made Viona happy, that she could forget about her sadness for a while.
Their brief chat left a deep impression on her. Zeva's small body finally disappeared from Viona's sight because the train had driven away from the station where the little girl got off.
The train that Viona was riding in finally stopped. She stepped out of the train. She decided to run to her apartment because it was already late. Viona was still new to her neighborhood, so she still didn't know what the situation was.
When she arrived at the apartment, Viona decided to wash up and then made instant noodles to fill her stomach. Back in the orphanage, her mother always scolded her when she tried to eat instant noodles.
"I'm sorry, Mom. I am eating instant noodles now," Viona said softly. Her eyes staring at the photo of her mother, who smiled sweetly. It was the picture of Maria with Viona and her foster children in front of the orphanage.
The sound of Viona's cell phone ringing made her stop her dinner.
"Hello Vio, it's me. Am I bothering you?" she could hear Lexi's voice on the other side.
"Hello, Lexi. I am just about to sleep," Viona replied softly.
"You just arrived at 9 pm? Where did you go?" asked Lexi searchingly.
"I walked from the station. It took me a long time to arrive home," Viona explained.
"Should I pick you up tomorrow?" said Lexi hopefully, trying to offer help to Viona.
"No, thank you. I can take the train," Viona said softly.
"Alright, it's already late. You should sleep now." Lexi tried to coax Viona.
"Thank you, Lexi," Viona replied quickly. Not long after, she put her cellphone on the table and continued her dinner then went up to her bed to sleep because she felt tired.
Somewhere else, Lexi was trying to find out where Viona lived by tracing her phone. It didn't take long before Lexi finally found Viona's apartment. Apparently, it was not far from his brother's house.
"You must be mine Viona," said Lexi in a determined voice.
Lexi became obsessed with Viona since many of his friends told him that they could never get her. Many boys at school decided to stay away from Viona after finding out that the girl was an orphan living in a foster home.
They initially thought Viona was the daughter of a wealthy family because of her beauty. She was also able to mingle with the upper-class students. She looked so beautiful and elegant like a rich girl.
Lexi's room was opened.
"Honey, let's sleep," said a sexy woman in a coyish voice to Lexi, who was still sitting at his desk.
Lexi smiled at the woman's words. He swiftly lifted the woman's body and laid her on the bed. He was a womanizer who couldn't feel satisfied with just one woman. The girl who was now in his bed was his second girlfriend for this month.
"You have to satisfy me tonight, Layla ..." whispered Lexi with a husky voice.
