在野外被三个男人躁一夜

Chapter 121 - New Enemy

"What are you doing here?" He asked as he continued to work on the papers in front of him.

He never liked surprises, especially when he was busy. He was currently facing some problems in his business. And Cassie\'s unannounced visit was not something he appreciated as of the moment. She was a distraction he did not need.

"Am I not welcome to visit you anymore?" She made herself sound as if she felt hurt by the way she was dismissing her presence.

"It is not that, but I am busy today." He did not need her drama today.

He just learned that a few individuals were buying a few blocks of stocks of his company shares under his nose. His people discovered an anomaly and started to notice a pattern.

It was not some random clients wanting a part in his company, but a possible hostile takeover. They were not sure yet, but it was better to be careful before it became too late for them to recover.

This entity was slowly acquiring stocks to gain access to his company, and he needed to find out who it was soon before it was too late. He did not come this far, only to lose because someone was able to dupe him. He was more cunning than whoever was trying to ruin what he had built.

"I heard that your ex just got engaged." She announced, observing him from where she was standing. She wanted to see how he would react to the news.

"What are you talking about?" Not fully grasping what she said as his mind was still in his problems, but only wanting Cassie out of his office soon enough. He required his full attention to focus on the issue at hand.

Cassie was a good partner in bed and his other schemes. But when it came to business, she was dumb as a rock. As of now, he had no use for her because she could not help him with his business.

"Daniella Hamilton is getting married. I just saw the news of her engagement with the man we saw at the party. Did you know that Alexander Princeton was a prince?" Cassie stated, making her statement clearer to avoid misunderstanding as she narrated what she heard in the news.

Cassie was amazed at the way her ex-friend found another lover, a prince at that. Although, she would not qualify what Nick and Dani had as anything sexual. Nick only wanted Dani for her money and not her body as far as she was concerned.

"What?" He was not sure of what he just heard. "My Dani is getting married to that man." He shouted as he stopped looking at the papers in front of him and directed his attention to Cassie, who was still pacing on his office floor. The news finally sunk in his brain.

Nick was still planning on marrying Dani eventually. It was part of his master plans. He just needed to find some leverage he could use against her so she would agree to such an arrangement.

But that would not happen if she was to marry that man, a prince, as Cassie told him. It would entirely affect all his plans. He ran his fingers through his hair, feeling frustrated that another problem just came up.

"First of all, she is not your Dani anymore, Nick." Cassie pointed out angrily at him, jealous that he still wanted Dani, despite having her on his side. "Next, yes, he is going to marry that man. Unlike you, he is a real live prince." She emphasized the last part, hating the man in front of her.

She had stuck by his side, hoping that he would finally take notice of her. After Nick and Dani separated, she was sure that he would be putting his full attention on her, but it would seem that she was still sharing it with his ex.

Cassie stormed out of his office after hearing that he once again claimed Dani was and would always be his. She hated that Nick still had not moved on from her. But she would show him that she was better than her in many ways.

"Cassie, come back here." He immediately stood up from his seat and ran after her. "I\'m sorry, I did not mean that. Sometimes, it just slipped my tongue because I used to call her that." He knew that was not an excuse, but he had to try.

He made a mistake again, but if he did not need Cassie in his plans, he would have let go of her a long time ago. But as of now, he had to play his cards right. He should be more careful in handling her.

"But you two are already over for a long time. I sometimes feel that you are only using me, but you did not care about me at all." She did like Nick, but just like him. Cassie was also using him for her agendas.

But in some way, she hated when he usually compared her to Dani because they were two different people. She wanted Nick to herself because she loved him, but she also needed him to execute her plans against Dani.

"I love you, Cassie. How can you say that?" Nick declared, but in truth, he was not sure if he even knew the meaning of the word. He needed her, that was for sure, but love was something he only used for his propaganda.

"You know I only wanted to get her back because of her money. We need it so that we can exact our revenge against them." Nick continued to explain to her. "You are the most important person in my life." He started caressing her shoulders, showing her some affection.

"Then show me." She turned around and moved towards Nick, who pulled her back to his office, locking the door behind him.

Sex between them was explosive. Nick had to admit that. It was one of the things that were a bonus in their relationship. But he still wanted Dani more. She was the key to his dreams.

He was expecting that he could still find a way to make her marry him. But he guessed that would be impossible now. Hearing that Dani was now engaged to his new enemy was a big blow to his plans unless he could find another way.
