Chapter His Girlfriend
Parking her car in the basement of Martini Group of Companies tall building, she inhaled a sharp breath and exhaled to calm down herself.
'I have to act wisely' she mumbled. When she felt that she is no angrier any more then only she unlocked the door and hoped out of the car, pressing the button of first floor she watched the door of elevator getting close.

Alessandro was working on the file when his intercom ringed.
'Yes' he was still focused on the papers and got annoyed immediately because of the disturbance.
'I am so sorry sir to disturb you' his assistant swiftly apologized listening his irritated voice.
'Cut the crap Johnny, what is the matter?' Alessandro knew his assistant is very efficient employee and would never disturb him after his strict instruction but if he had disobeyed him it means the matter required is immediate attention. 'A woman is here to visit you and claims as your girlfriend, should I let her in? Actually I stopped her because I never saw her with you before and had not receive any instructions related to your girlfriend' Johnny quickly informed him of the situation he was facing.
'My girlfriend?' Alessandro felt bit scared.
'What blunders have I made in past?' she thought inwardly.
'Um, yes' seeing his own boss perplexed, he looked the woman carefully who was busy in chewing a bubblegum and was waiting for approval to get inside his office.
'What is her name?' Johnny bit his tongue, in the tenure of three years he never saw a woman coming to his boss's office claiming herself as his girlfriend, it was the first time and by the way his boss was taking the information, he understood the woman is just pretending to be his girlfriend.
'She refuses to tell' Johnny sighed.
'Let her in' Alessandro sensed the trouble form the woman that was standing outside his office, in normal circumstances he would not have allowed her but now he does not want any issues to reach to his newly found family and specially to the mother of his kids, because he can't afford to upset her.
Clara opened the door and stepped in to his office, the spacious room was designed with white paint and black furniture theme, the luxurious furniture was giving it an elegant look and the shelfs on the wall right to his desk was fully organized with the files and stacks of papers.
Alessandro break his attention and raised his head to see the person who was claiming to be his girlfriend, but when he saw the Clara Peterson standing under the door frame of his office, his face promptly turned in to poker. 'Hey' she was beaming in happiness when allowed to go in, she hoped for a chance. Alessandro closed the file and slammed it on the desk showing off his gloominess, she flinched on the sharp noise that created.
'Ms. Peterson, can I know the reason what made you so confident of claiming yourself as my girlfriend, as far as I remember, we met for the first time yesterday and it hardly would be of ten minutes' Clara's face turned red due to the insult but she composed herself and forced a fake smile on her face.
'It doesn't matter how long we sat yesterday, what matter is that it was the date arranged by our fathers, which means they want to see us together' Alessandro grunted at her excuse.
'It may be our fathers wish but it is not mine' he stood from the chair and walked to the other side of his desk leaning against it he folded his hands in his chest. Clara gritted her teeth, while coming here she was planning to seduce him but seeing his straight face and not welcoming gesture she could only cry inwardly.
'I understand, but don't you think you should be sorry for yesterday, you left without letting me know, it counts as an insult' Alessandro rolls his eyes, he was having a hunch that this woman will not leave him easily but for now he wants to get rid of her, his works was in pending.
'I had my reasons and not bound to inform you, now please if you will let me work. Considering your delicate nature, you will find it as an insult if I will ask my security to show you the way out' Clara passed an angry look to him but she was not an important person for him hence he ignored her and indulge himself in his work once the door of his office was closed.
Samuel entered in to the club with his friends, he wanted to celebrate his deal with Harris and for it their won club was the best place for them.
'Sir' the manager of the club come rushing to him once caught him standing at the entrance.
'We are here to celebrate, prepare the glasses for us' he ordered the manager and walked to the cabin from where he can have the view of whole floor of the club, the people were madly dancing on the floor after getting drunk and the rocking music was playing a big role in making them more wild.
Soon the drinks were served to them and he was enjoying the evening with his friends when suddenly his eyes caught a woman figure sitting around the bar, he felt a resemblance of someone he knew, therefore he asked his friends to wait for him while he comes back shortly.
'Hello' reaching near to the woman, he smiled when found his doubt correct, getting further near, behind her he called her to gain her attention. Clara rotate the stool to see who had called her but got surprised when saw Samuel standing there with smirk on his face.
'Samuel' she squealed and jumped herself on him, he wrapped his hands around her waist.
'When did you come back to Florida? And why didn't tell me about your arrival?' removing his hands he broke the hug, Clara distant herself and sat down on the stool again, he joined her.
'A week passed' she sipped the beer.
'Great, and what are your plans now?' she sighed, the insult from Alessandro flashed burning her cheeks in red, Samuel tilted his head to watch her in amazement.
