The Ruthless CEO

Rage

I know it's been an eternity since I updated but I've been really busy with my dissertation. I'm so sorry, but here's an update.

Hope you like it.

"It's too short, Mia." I tugged on the red wine coloured dress she lent me to wear. Since Mia received her promotion today, she decided to give Jackson and I a treat. I didn't have anything to wear, so, she gave me one of her dresses to wear. The dress was amazingly gorgeous but I felt as if it was too short. I looked like a slut.

"I look like a slut, Mia." I voiced out my thoughts.

"Oh, shut up! You look super sexy. I mean if I was a guy, I would totally bang you tonight itself. Now, let's do your make up." There's one thing you should know about Mia, she doesn't take no for an answer.

"Fine." I sat down on the chair across her vanity and Mia began to do my make-up. Thankfully, she kept it minimal. When I looked at my reflection, I was shocked to see this girl in front of me. Damn, Mia, does know how to make a girl look pretty.

"Wow, you look gorgeous." Mia said stunned at her art work. "Man, I'm good." She praised herself, making me laugh.

I was about to say something when a loud horn refrained me. "Should be Jackson." Mia took her clutch and walked outside the house, with me behind her. She locked it and we both walked to the car.

Jackson whistled when he saw the both of us. "Wow, you girls look fine." I noticed that his eyes lingered more on Mia. Well, she did look really stunning, especially with that golden dress she was wearing. She was looking like a walking Oscar trophy.

"Why thank you, Jackson." Mia responded in her fake English accent. "Now take us to the restaurant." She ordered, chuckling.

"Sure, madam." Jackson saluted her and jogged to the car. He inserted the key in the ignition and the car roared to life.

We chatted about random things until we reached the restaurant. Once Jackson parked the car, we all got out of the car. My mouth was opened like a goldfish when I saw the restaurant. Woah, it looked really posh.

"Mia, it's way too chic. This seems like an expensive restaurant. Can't we go somewhere else?" I asked her nervously, taking the size and glamour of the restaurant. It felt as if only the stars came to his restaurant.

"Aww, you're too sweet and don't worry about anything. We're here to have a good time." She assured me but somehow, I was not really convinced but complied anyways.

When we entered the restaurant, I was hit by the marvellous smell of Italian sauces making my mouth water.

"Come, let's grab a seat." Mia said, taking hold of my hand. I'm glad she was grabbing my hand because I'm sure, I would fall sooner or later with those uncomfortable heels that I was wearing.

We took a seat in one of the corners of the restaurant and very quickly a waiter came by our side asking us what we want to order. I ordered for a mushroom risotto while Mia and Jackson ordered chicken lasagna.

I was about to thank Mia for her sweet gesture when she cut me off. "Oh my God, look who's there!" She nearly screamed.

"Who's there?" Jackson and I asked in unison.

"Antonio DeLucas." Mia responded staring dreamily at him.

At the mention of his name, I turned and saw him looking straight at me with a huge smile on his face. Oh my gosh, he really is really good looking. But not as good looking as Sebastian. Woah woah woah! Where did that come from and why the hell am I thinking of him?!
