Chapter 3 : My Savior, Or Death?

Samuel’s P.O.V.

“Buy the shares, don’t let George possess more shares than me. You know what happens if ever he gets his hands on it.” I muttered, my eyes glued to the files handed to me. I’m currently on my way to my mansion on my black Innova this time. I just had the feeling of it. A feeling of not fancying myself to others who sees. Such an eyesore...

“Sir, the purchase is successful. You now own 75% of the shares of Japan Electron-Innovations Corporation, what are your plans now?

Jarred asked, he is my personal assistant. My most trusted friend also. He has been there by my side for 5 years now. Ever since I graduated high school, I already took up a 2 year course on Internal Auditing and Business Management. Then 2 years to get my certification of CIA.

“The shareholder’s meeting yesterday concluded that most of the stock holder’s preference to vote for me as the CEO. George must be very displeased by it." George’s main target is only chasing me out of my company and dominate all that we possess. My Second Uncle isn’t someone you should mess with, I suppose. He definitely gone through soaring heights just to shove me down. Though in the end, I still rose from the depths.

I gave out an exhausted sigh. It’s been only a few years of my service here and I’m already as tired as a father working through 10 jobs a day. Though I should be very lucky, my position is not very easy to grasp. That’s what father usually tells me.

I was about to instruct Jarred to take me home when I caught a glimpse of someone, someone very familiar. I squinted my eyes to get a brief view, yet before I knew it. There’s something I should’ve understood minutes ago.

“Jarred, stop the car!” I yelled out, he glanced back with a hint of confusion in his dark colored eyes yet obliged. The moment he stopped the car. I swiftly swung the car door open and rushed to the alleyway I saw her.

It is her… Cassandra. It must be fate that we met once more. Now that I have you within arm's length. I will never let you out of my grasp ever again. Not in this life, and not in any.

“You better let the lady go, or else.” I threatened, yet the three men only laughed at my attempt to scare them off. It feels like back it high school, but this time. I’ll never, ever, let anyone bully me again. Let's see if they even have the ability to even try to as to lay a finger on me.

“Or else what?” they laughed yet before they knew it. A signature grin was plastered on my face as I snapped my fingers and immediately, two of my best bodyguards went by my side. Of course, the tension increased as I felt how they quivered by our presence. Crossing my arms, I gave out my devilish grin.

“Gentlemen, kindly demonstrate to these Bulgars how we do 'Business'.” I gave out a nod. The two men beside me immediately cracked their fingers and lunged to attack. I had the upper hand obviously, and my bodyguards are elite fighters after all.

“Come with me.” I instructed the girl and immediately lifted her back onto her feet. She seemed mesmerized yet shaky when she did. I helped her gather her things when I noticed the newspaper nearby. Now I know what’s her purpose. Looks like fate has arranged something special just for the both of us. Maybe this day isn’t so bad after all. Nor does my 'pity' for her just now. She's just lucky that i'm such a kind Samaritan.

“T-thanks… may I know your name?” she questioned. Seemed like she doesn’t remember my identity, when I know exactly who she is. Maybe I'm just too handsome that she acted mesmerized by me. This will be very interesting indeed.

“My name’s Samuel Gabriel Dencio, CEO of Japan Electron-Innovations Corporation. I assume that you were looking for a job. Fortunately, I am in need of a personal maid these weeks. And you should get the job. You seem pretty fit to picking up a broom” I smirked. What else can she do but accept my kind invitation? She doesn't have a final resort!

My bodyguards arrived back to my side. Those hooligans are beaten like mashed potatoes,. As expected of my competent personal security.

“Thank you, Mr. Dencio, but I don’t think I should take the offer.” She muttered, it seems like she doesn’t remember me at all huh. Oh I’ll remind you of all the things you have done to me, all the pains you gave me, I'll make you remember the hideous things that you made me go through these years. I’ll return them back, not once, not twice, but ten-folds!

“I saved you, so you are required to repay me, and what best way to repay me than to work for me? Unless you have other ways to repay my kindness?” I observed her figure for a while, it seemed like she caught the bait as she blushed furiously and covered herself with her hands. Its fine, I’m not interested with her nor her flatness. There's nothing good to see but dirt on her. I have Mysophobia, she better not be less than an arm's length closer.

“Fine! I’ll work for you, on the condition you will not invade my private life nor myself. My name is Cassandra Rose Villanueva, Cassey for short. Don't you dare think that just because I'm grateful of you for saving me, you can hover like you wish. I'll pay you back!” She scoffed, how cute. If she thinks I’ll be interested in her, then she could continue to dream about her sweet fantasies of the damsel in distress and prince charming in suit of metal armor. It disgusts me.

“Good. From now on, Ms. Villarica. You are now the CEO’s Personal Maid. Don’t even think about getting out of my grasp this time.” I could only holler a smirk as I motioned for the men beside me to take her with us. She didn’t struggle nor complained, she needs to know her place, let’s see if you can handle what I recently planned out just for you, Cassandra.

"Excuse me! It's Ms Villanueva to you!" I should've not spoke beforehand. Yet never mind that. I don't care.

Your happy-go-lucky days are numbered, I’ll make your new life, a living hell.
