Chapter 10
Pure Intentions –
His words sounded like a drum to Arya, who gave him a scrutinizing mockery look.
Before Alberto could say another word, the security men had arrived, bundling him and his wife, Jane out of the premises, like they were criminals.
In determined strides, Arya grasped her mini–bag and walked out of the building to her Brows that was packed outside the building waiting for her.
“So ma’am, what about the contracts, they are dying to hear your responses, your father said only you have the final san?” Cassandra said, her words halting Arya in her steps before she could hop into the car.
In a swift turn. Arya averts her gaze to Cassandra, “Send it to the office through my secretary, Karen. I will review them tomorrow morning when I get to the office, “Arya calmly said.
Cassandra pulled the door open for Arya, to hop in, and drive her home.
“Excuse me, are you leaving already?” a masculine voice asked from behind, the voice sounding unfamiliar to Arya.
Arya turned to know who it was, only for her gaze to fall on, the unfamiliar face of a young gray eyes, dark hair, and imposing muscular body.
man, with gorgeous, attractive
His handsome face, with an alluring breath, with his melting sulle that could make you forget your sadness, was just another bonus to his already sophisticated and intimidating appearance.
“I am Nathan Haverstock,” the masculine voice said, stretching forth his hands towards Arya, for a handshake,
Arya stared at his huge spotless hands, skeptical about the handshake, but decided to give in and be friendly for once.
“I am Arya,” she said, shaking his hands slightly, like she was scared of something, and pulled it out immediately.
A hint of amusement flashed on Nathan’s face, lips tipping in a smirk, making Arya’s check blush a deep shade of red, without knowing she was blushing.
“Since
e you are leaving Arya, how about we meet up to get to know each other, I am inviting you out on a date, I hope you don’t mind, Nathan blurted out, stating his intentions clearly, not wanting to beat around the bush, without a second thought of his abrupt request.
A surprised look chimed on Arya’s face, with her brow arching at the young man’s straightforwardness,
His words moved Arya’s hardened heart, but Arya wasn’t ready to give another man a chance in her life, who would shatter her heart again, just like it happened in the past.
“I am sorry to disappoint you, mister Nathan, but I have no time for dates. My time is treasured and only limited to business, “Arya said calmly, trying not to hurt the young man’s feelings,
“How about a business date?” He asked curtly.
“You already stated your intentions, which are clear,” Arya said in a resolute voice.
“If not it’s not a business conversation, or anything related to itm not interested, Mr. Nathan, Arya declared in a grimaced voice, as she hopped into the car, not sparing room for Nathan to persuade further, with the thought that her cold attitude. would make the young man give up.
Liule did she know that her attitude got Nathan more attracted and interested in her, as a smirk laced his face, watching

Soon the c

engines roared to life, and in a few seconds, it was out of sight,
What an interesting woman, Nathan muttered in his thoughts, lost in gaze.
“Master!” Nathan’s Driver and assistant, Laica Mason, calls for his attention.
“We need to leave, your flight to Mexico for the business meeting is in the next two hours,” Luca said, a hint of worry etched on his face, as he reminded Nathan of the importance of the meeting.
Nathan turned to Luca, now standing two meters away from him, “I want you to get everything about that lady, every information that proves of importance about her to me, before tomorrow,” Nathan commanded, pointing at Arya’s distanced vehicle, his voice firm and authoritative, walking towards his newest Mercedes car, as Luca hurried over to and opened the car door to the back seat, and Nathan hopped in
“Yes master,” Luca replied with a surprised look on his face, knowing fully well that his master had never had an interest any young lady for the past five years, no matter how hard they tried to gain his attention.
It was enough reason for Luca to be surprised. That his same master is asking for a piece of detailed information about a lady you had only met some minutes ago.
“Is there a problem?” Nathan asked, realizing the surprised look on Lucas’s face after he had given out his order.
“Nothing sir, just wondering that no woman had ever got your attention, just surprised that one did, Luca said, gritting his teeth in worry, that he may have said something wrong, which may annoy his master, whose silence sent cold shivers. him.
Pure intentions! It’s nothing but pure intentions, so let’s get to the airport” He replied, sending some relaxation nerves over Luca’s mind.
Nathan did not raise his head from his phone, as he searched through the business news on the iPad he held.
Behind the pillar of the building, stood Lilia, who had followed Arya out, to know what the drama was all about earlier inside the building. Lilia paused mid–way when she witnessed Näthan walk up to Arya, making her hide to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Lilia gritted her teeth, jealousy, and envy taking the best of her, she did not only take the position from me but also wants to take him too,” she said, biting her lips in anger.
“That damn Arya, I would make her regret ever coming into our lives to disrupt my happiness,” she spat out, jealousy evident on her face.
Tm never letting her have him as well,” Lilia declared, stomping her feet hard to the floor, as she walked back into the building.
Thud! Thud!
Alberto hit his fits hard on the table, in his study room, dazed at nothing, anger, and frustration shrugged through his veins, the excruciating pain, combined with the disgrace of kneeling in front of Arya, pleading for her sympathy, exuded in his thoughts, inflicting him with more anger.
“Damn Arya!,” Jane, who is seated on the couch, massaging her temples, with her right hand being supported by the handle of the couch muttered, her voice–audible, that it got Alberto’s attention, the incident of what had happened at the event being replayed in her mind.
“What does Arya mean by you deceiving me?” Alberto asked abruptly, with a scowled face, with an intense aggressive gaze

on Jane.

Jane rolled her eyes, before turning towards Alberto’s direction. Do not tell me you believe what that slut said?, she was only trying to make me look bad in front of everyone for calling her whore, Jane explained, her voice babyish, trying to coax Alberto off Arya’s words into believing hers.
“That damn bitch! She knows she is nothing but a cheap whore Picked and brushed up by the Dankworths,” Jane spat out, throwing her hand up in the air, her excruciating pain, dusheartent evident in her demeanor.
Jane stood up from the couch, walking towards Alberto, who was sitting on his spinning seat close to the table, his hands laced over his face, “Do not let what she said bother you, our wedding is fast approaching and we need to concentrate on that, Jane said affectionately, supporting herself with his desk, seductively her hands found its way to his chest.
Alberto stared at Jane, his gaze cold and unfriendly, “You did not seem surprised when you saw Arya, is there something are not telling me.” Alberto asked, shoving Jane’s hands off from his chest, his furious gaze intently staring into her was going to strangle her any minute.
Jane tries walking away, attempting to avoid the question, suddenly Alberto grabs her furiously by the hand, his grip so tight on her, that she winces in pain.
“You are hurting me, Albert,” she said, wincing in great pain, struggling to free her hand from his stronghold.
“You dare not walk away from me, while I’m still talking, I demand some answers this minute!” He blurted out in a frightful voice, with bloodshot eyes laced with anger.
