The Ruthless CEO

Challenging Mr Arrogant

Hey my gorgeous readers :)

Actually I so want to thank you all for being so amazing and supportive! Many of you have sent me private messages saying that I should have agreed and published the book. Thank you for saying that but there is one thing that all of you need to know - without you guys, this book wouldn't have been possible. If today, this book has received so much success, it's a because of you and I can't take it away from those who have been here since Day One supporting TRC. 

I appreciate your gestures but you guys mean so much more to me than publishing it now. Maybe I will have it published, but not in the near future. 

Thank you once again for being so awesome. I'm forever grateful.

Happy reading :)

That night I cried for more than two hours before falling asleep on the couch itself. I woke up in the morning with a huge neck pain, swollen eyes and my ice cream had completely melted. Damn Sebastian Salvestro! All he does is cause me loss. How am I supposed to go office in such a bad shape?! But going to office would mean facing Sebastian at some point in time. God! How did I end up in such a situation?! If someone had told me a month ago that my life would be such a rollercoaster ride, I would have laughed in their faces claiming they are mad because my life was absolutely a monotonous one. And here we are, involved in so much drama!

After a few moments of self pity, I got up from the couch and went for a long hot shower. After taking off all my clothes, I got in the shower and let the hot water cascade onto my body, relaxing all the strained muscles.

I could hear my phone ringing from my room – it must be Mia. I ignored it and stayed under water. I was too much in a bliss to care about anyone else at the moment.

However, my moment of bliss was shortlived because the phone kept on ringing relentlessly. With a huge sigh, I shut the water off and got out of the shower. I wrapped a towel around my tiny body and got out of the bathroom to get into my room.

The phone was still ringing and without even looking at the caller ID, I picked it up thinking it was Mia but got totally stunned when I heard the authoritative and angry voice at the end of the receiver.

"Miss Wilson, it's already half past ten, may I ask where the fuck are you?" Sebastian snarled and not to mention the way he said "Miss Wilson" had my legs shaking both in fear and excitement.

No, you may not! This is what I wanted to say but I refrained myself from getting into more troubles and instead said "I'm not coming to work today," dryly. Just when I was about to shut the phone, he continued.

"What happened?" Sebastian asked, a tiny bit of concern laced in his voice. Am I dreaming right now or he is genuinely concerned about me? "Is Jackson coming back to your apartment so that you guys can shag all day long?" He bit back bitterly. Goodness! Just when I thought he was concerned about me, he had to say something horrible to make me disgust him even more.

"For your kind information, Mr Salvestro, Jackson is just my friend and nothing else. And no, he is not coming over. Now, if you would excuse me, I need to rest." I replied trying to sound professional.

"You are coming to work AvaGrace and there won't be any excuses." Sebastian ordered.

"I am not coming, Sebastian." I insisted and could hear him sigh in frustration but I ignored it. I'm definitely not going back to work to face him.

"Ethan is already down at your apartment. Get ready and get in the car. I'm not taking no for an answer." Sebastian commanded and my eyes widened. He had the nerves to get the car down the apartment but I refuse to go and I'm fully determined about it.

"Do whatever you want Sebastian, I am not coming to work." I replied stubbornly.

"Are you challenging me here, AvaGrace?" I could hear a hint of amusement in Sebastian's voice.

"No, I'm not challenging you, I'm just informing you that I'm not coming to work." I mentally tapped myself on the shoulders for not succumbing.

"What if I come over there and forcefully take you to work?" Sebastian asked in a mocking voice.

"Haa, you wouldn't dare." I said smugly.

"Oh yeah? Well, get ready to be disappointed, mia cara." And with that the phone call ended. I could see him smirking through the phone. He must be bluffing anyways.

Just when I was about to drop my towel and start to put on some clothes, I could hear the door opening. I instantly stopped what I was doing and went to see who it was and my eyes widened at the person who was in front of me.

"You forgot that I am the one who gifted you this apartment, so I must be having a duplicate key, right?" Sebastian said with a huge evil smile on his face and playing with the key, trying to show me he has won.

"I-I will call the police." I said totally embarrassed and pulling the towel more towards me. Call the police, really Ava, my subconscious said dumbly.

"Oh yeah? And what will you say? That the owner of the place got in without permission?" Sebastian mocked while walking closer to me.

And this time, I didn't have anything to say except look stupidly at him. "B-But you're invading my privacy." I finally spoke.

And I could see how his eyes raked my body from top to bottom and the fact that I was in just a towel didn't help at all.

"Did you just say the word privacy, darling?" Sebastian asked while taking slow menacing steps towards me.

Not knowing what else to say, I simply nodded.

"Let me tell you one thing, mia cara," he began while gently stroking the back of his hands on my right cheek, "there's no privacy between us. There won't be any. There's no point in hiding your body from me." He spoke with an authority in his melodious voice, now wrapping his arms around my sim body and bringing me closer to him. "Your body is all mine." He whispered in my ear before biting my earlobe making me nearly swoon. I swear if he wasn't holding me, I would have collapsed on the floor.

"Now go get ready before I take this towel off you and fuck you hard on the floor so that you wouldn't be able to walk properly for a week." Sebastian said hungrily and let go of me.

"O-okay." Is the only word that I could utter and quickly went to my room to get dressed, fully aware that my boss is in the living room and who apparently wants to deflower me.

Oh my God! How did my life end up like this?
