《The Revenge Of A Businessman》Chapter 8
Advertisement
After having lunch with Jordan I went in my cabin. I made some coffee and I was thinking of ways to make Jacob angry. Whenever I think of him I don't know what happens to me. Maybe it is because of that kiss we had shared. I'll never forget that; kiss his lips on mine. I said while touching my lips.
The ringing of a telephone interrupts my thoughts. I already knew who it was!
“Yes!”
“Come in my cabin now!” I did not have the chance to answer him. How dare he cut the phone! I got up and went directly in his cabin.
I knocked and waited.
“Come in.”
“Go home...”
I interrupt him. “What?”
“Will you please let me finish?”
I rolled my eyes and say “continue.”
“You go home and get ready. We are going to a meeting then dinner along with the clients.”
I crossed my arms and said:
“What makes you think that I'll come with you?” I lifted one of my eyebrows and smirked.
“You have no choice but to come.”
“And why?”
He took a step forward and said because this is a project you and Gabriel were doing together. But now that Gabriel is not here I’m taking charge. You always went in the meetings before and you have to continue now also.”
“Okay then! Just for that project. Where do we meet sir?”
“I'll pick you at seven! Be ready!”
I was returning back to my cabin when Jacob called me again. I turned.
“Take this. I want you to wear this tonight.”
“Thank you but no thank you.”
“Take it. I want to make sure you are presentable for this meeting.”
How dare he? I was on the verge of snapping at him.

But to avoid argument I snatched the bags from him and went directly home.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I got home it was nearly 3 O'clock. I have plenty of time to get ready before the meeting. I put the bags on my bed and took off my clothes. I went in the tub and relax. After sometime my phone started to ring. I grabbed the phone and answered.
“Hello.”
“Mia?” I instantly recognised that voice. It was him.
“Yes, what do you want?” (Note the sarcasm.)
“I just wanted to remind you of the meeting.”
“I remember anything else?”
“Yes don't forget to wear the dress I've given to you. I don't want to be embarrassed because of you.”
“Oh yeah then why are you taking me along with you?”
“I have no choice! See you in 2 hours!”
“What...” I did not have time to ask him what he meant by 2 hours? I looked at the clock and I was shocked. It was already five. I guess I slept for 2 hours in the tub. How silly of me!
I quickly washed the soap off my body and put a towel around my body. I took out the dress and I was surprised. OMG what's wrong with him. This dress is too short to wear for a business meeting. Without second thoughts I took my phone and called him. He answered on the second ring.
“You better have a good reason for disturbing me.”
“What?”
“Why have you called?”
“I cannot wear this dress for the meeting.”
“Can I know why?”
“It's too short.”
I could hear him laugh. His laugh is so sweet. I shake my head. Control Mia.
“You will wear this dress only.”
“But....”
“No buts or anything. I sent you that dress that means its ok. Understand?”

“Right see you later.” I said before hanging up.
I put the phone away.
AFTER 1H55MIN
I was now ready. Jacob will come in 5 mins.
I wore the dress. It was black and was just a little below my butt. It was one shoulder with a belt just below the boobs.
I had a pair of red heels. And put some seductive make up.
The doorbell rang.
“Coming.” I shouted.
I opened the door and saw a shocking Jacob.
“What?”
“Uh nothing. Let's go.”
I was shocked that I could make him speechless but I preferred not saying anything. I followed him and he opened the passenger door for me. I said a quick thanks and he went to take his place obviously after closing my door. I was admiring the view when I heard Jacob talking. I did not know it was to me so I kept looking outside.
“Mia, will you fucking look at me when I'm talking to you!”
I turned to him and gave him one of my deathly glares.
“I'm sorry I didn't know you were talking to me.”
“Yeah whatever. I was saying that we have to go to my house first then to the meeting.”
“And can I ask why?” I said in a calm tone.
“Because I need to change and I won't take too long.”
“But why did you not do that before fetching me?”
“I don't have to give you an explanation, do I?”
I was pissed, now I have to go with him to his house. Great! After some minutes of driving we entered in a big yard which I think is his. After 5 mins of driving I finally could see his house. It was so big. I never ever think that I saw a house like this in my whole life. I didn't even know when the car had stopped as I was busy admiring my enemy house.
“If you have finished admiring can we go in?”
“Uh what?”
“Come on.”
We enter the house and Jacob told me to sit here while he went to change. As I'm a curious person I decided to look at the pictures on the wall. Aww there was a photo of a kid playing with toys. I don't think that it is that loser. Look at that kid's face how angelic and this one. A devil is good in front of him. Alright I know I'm talking nonsense but c'mon I prefer the devil than him. I returned back to the sofa. Suddenly I had the urge to go to the toilet. Crap! I have to go now! But where is the bathroom?
I went up the stairs and knocked on all the doors but got no response. God so many doors! As there was no response I even opened the door to see if it was the bathroom but no. Most of them were bedrooms. At last only one door! God make this the bathroom! I knocked on the door but got no answer. I twisted the knob and opened it.
Jacob stood in front of me without shirt. I could not think of anything at that time. All I could see was his body. OMG this abs. God Mia shut up.
“Take a picture it will last longer” said Jacob with a smirk on his face.
“I'm sorry.”
“What's wrong?”
“Where's the bathroom?”
“There, use mine!”
“Thanks!”
I opened the door and soon the scent of axe aftershave filled my nostrils. Damn why the perfume of men smells better than those of women? I prefer their perfume. I checked myself before going out Jacob was ready and was waiting for me. He turned when he heard the door opened.
“Okay?”
“Yes.”
“Let's go!”
And we headed downstairs.

When the common folk hear of the Hell King, they think of many different things"It is the king of monsters!" "A calamity unfolded that knows nothing but destruction" "The true pinnacle of hatred and wrath." "A savage demon that eats children" "It's no doubt the king of despair as well as every child's bed monster." However, when you ask those scholars of ages long past, they will answer "It is one of the many riddles of life, one that no man has yet solved." "It is a great question, one so great that you shouldn't ask." "I honestly don't know." "Truly child? Since youth have I dreamed of meeting it, and you expect me to fullfill such a task in my lifetime?" "Nobody truly has any evidence it is evil, yet at the mere mention of the name I tremble in fear." One thing is for sure. Nobody truly knows who said Hell King really is. Not the greatest of cultivators, the grandest of swordsmen nor the wisest of sages. Nobody even knows where the stories of the Hell King come from, and yet everybody knows them. This is a story about a broken man, a man cursed by the heavens, an enigma to the whole world, a ruler of a dead kingdom and a monster born out of despair. "I wish not for women, I wish not for gold nor do I wish for happiness. All I wish for is to be granted eternal rest."
