*Third Person's POV*Three Years Ago.
"Dad, please. I will do anything to return the money to you. So please lend me some. He's really sick." Twenty-two-year-old Lisa Manobal cried in distress, kneeling before the man who gave birth to her.
The young girl, her father, and his new wife were standing by the front door of his mansion.
"I said no, Lisa." The man growled. "Can't you understand? I worked hard for my money. I am not spending it on some guy just because he fucked my ex-wife for some years."
"DON'T TALK ABOUT HIM THAT WAY." The girl shouted.
"You fucking bitch. How dare you raise your voice at my husband!" The man's second wife, Lisa's stepmother, yelled, slapping the girl to the ground.
The man sighed.
"Look, Lisa. You don't have to be so bothered with him. He's not your father. I am very much alive and healthy. So go home and let him figure out what to do."
The young girl gritted her teeth.
"He was a father to me more than you ever were." She spat her words like venom.
"Ungrateful brat!" He slapped her again. Hard. The corner of her lips started to bleed. "Don't forget the fact that you are talking to your father."
"Honey, why do you bother with her? Come inside." Lisa's stepmother sputtered at her husband, dragging him inside and shutting the door on the young girl's face, leaving her alone and helpless in the cold.
Lisa got up, wiping her tears.
She never wanted to come here. Never wanted to see the man who announced herself as her father. However, she had to because of her circumstances.
Lisa's birth parents got separated when she was just two or three. She was raised by the love of her mother and her stepfather Marco Brüschweiler, who always loved, cherished, and brought her up like his own daughter.
She had a loving family. She was happy with what she had. But, a few years ago, everything turned upside down.
Lisa's mother passed away due to an accident, and Marco had a stroke due to its shock. Upon further tests, it was found out that he had severe heart issues. Even a transplant wasn't easy. The young girl's world crashed.
She had lost her mother. She couldn't lose her father as well. She tried her best to gather the money she needed for her father's treatment. But it wasn't enough. He needed constant care and medical assistance, and it wasn't cheap. Lisa didn't even have a stable job or proper educational qualifications.
She was broken to the core, drowning in debt.
That's why she came to ask her father's help. She didn't expect a miracle since the man didn't even try to know about the whereabouts of his daughter. But she hoped at least he would be considerate enough to take in a request his daughter had brought for the first and last time in her life.
As Lisa walked down the street, she was stopped by a few guys. Around five men, reeking of smoke surrounded her, and she gulped hard. She recognized them. They were the agents of the loanshark from whom she had lended money.
"What's up, Lisa?" The leader of the gang spoke mockingly. "It's hard to find you nowadays. And you don't even pick up our calls."
"I– I am so sorry." The young girl gulped hard. "I was about to come down and meet the boss."
"Tsk." The main guy clicked his tongue. "We don't need to know all that, Lisa. If you fail to pay our boss back, he very well knows how to get money out of you." He scoffed. "What are you looking at? Bring her to the van." He scolwed at his men.
As the men were about to hold the girl, she somehow managed to wiggle away from their hands. She ran with all the energy left in her.
"CATCH HER!!"
The young girl ran without any sense of direction.
But that was going to get her in front of a car, which almost ran over her, but luckily the driver hit the brakes.
"WHAT THE FUCK, GIRL!? Are you trying to get killed?" The driver, a tall girl in well tailored suit, shouted, jumping out of her seat through the opened door.
Lisa felt a relief wash over her as she saw the tall girl. She rushed to her side and clenched her hand tight.
"Please help me." She whispered helplessly.
The gangsters also made their way to the girls by then, but they stopped as they saw the tall girl.
"Ms– Miss Y/L/N? What are you doing here?" Of course, it was impossible for them to not know the new CEO of Infinity Constructions. They had connections throughout the country.
"What the hell is your business with her?" The tall girl grunted at the men.
"She owns our boss around a million dollars, Ma'am. But she hasn't paid anything back yet, and the boss is yelling at us. We need to get her to him." The leader spoke.
"Whatever you have with her, settle it in the morning. Don't bother her tonight." The CEO instructed.
"But that's–" One of the men was about to speak up, but their leader stopped him.
"Do you have any objection? Should I call your boss?" The tall girl asked.
"N– no, no, Miss Y/L/N. If she's your acquaintance, then I think we can give her one more night." The main guy said nervously. "Lisa. We will just see you tomorrow." He spoke softly to the doe-eyed girl.
Lisa blinked.
At the moment, she didn't know who Y/N was. Though she has heard of company before, she had never seen the new CEO before. She just knew the tall girl was someone powerful.
As the men left, Y/N pulled her hand away from the short girl and prepared to get back into the car.
"Ex– excuse me?" Lisa's voice stopped her. "Thank– thank you for helping me."
The CEO nodded. That's when her eyes actually scanned Lisa's face. The doe-eyed girl's face was now slightly swollen because of the slap.
"Who slapped you?" Y/N grumbled. "Did they do it?" She referred the men.
"N– no. It wasn't them." She swallowed hard.
The tall girl sighed. "Do you need something?"
Actually, Lisa needed a lot of things. But all that came out was. "I... I am so cold."
Y/N didn't say anything. She walked over and opened the passenger door. "Get in."
The tall girl took the poor girl to her home and tended to her swollen face. Lisa poured her heart out to the stranger, whom she had began to trust, everything including her mother's death, her father's sickness, her liabilities, and the way her birth father treated her.
Y/N listened to every word from the Thai girl, silently sitting beside her.
"Can you– can you please help me?" Lisa asked, slightly quivering.
"How?" The CEO asked bluntly.
"Can you please give me a job? I will do anything. Anything that you tell me to do. I just want to make some money for my Dad." The doe-eyed girl pleaded.
"Anything, you said?"
"Y– yeah. Whatever it is that you will tell me. I will do anything to save my Dad."
"I do have a job for you. But are you really sure you want to do it?" Y/N asked one more time.
"Yes, yes! Whatever it is."
Y/N nodded as she got up and stood facing away from the girl.
"Be in a relationship with me."
