★★★★★
{ CAUGHT IN THE ACT }
Rage… Rage was the only visible thing in Romeo’s eyes. His eyes were on the wristwatch which was broken already. His jaw hardened and his gaze moved to Rosetta who was still on the floor, obviously fidgeting in fear.
“How dare you?!” He growled, his voice sending cold chills down Rosetta’s spine.
“I… I’m sorry,” Rosetta quickly bowed, her hands already trembling in fear. This was her only means of survival, if she perhaps lost this job, then that’s the end of her life.
?️ She’s so dead!
?️ How could she spoil his wristwatch?!
?️ That serves her right! She’s too clumsy!
?️ A poor cleaner for that matter, it’s surely the end of her job!
Hearing that, tears brimmed Rosetta’s eyes,her heart shattering into pieces. It was clear that she’d be losing her job that day, not when she spoiled his wristwatch.
Before she knew what was going on, Two guards rushed to her and raised her up, their face hard as a rock.
They dragged her to where Romeo was not minding her tiny hands trying to free herself from them.
“Let me go! Don’t touch me!” Rosetta yelled, till they finally got to where Romeo was. They weren’t far from him but due to the fall she had, he was now a few meters away from them.
All Romeo felt as he stared at her was anger, deep one. How could she spoil the wristwatch that just got delivered today??
“Do you realize what you’ve done? Do you know I can ki|| you for this??!” He growled and Rosetta was completely taken aback.
ki|| her?? Isn’t that too far? This was just an ordinary wristwatch for Pete’s sake!
“ki|| me??” Her voice came out slowly.
“Shut up, Rose. Shut up!” Her subconsciousness begged but being the stubborn lady she was, she completely shut it up.
“Isn’t that too far?? This is just an ordinary watch…” Her eyes went to the watch which was still on the floor.
“It doesn’t even look that expensive and..” Romeo’s eyes darkened and within seconds, his hand was already on her neck.
“Say that again!” He warned, his eyes blazing with anger. How could she call the wristwatch he spent millions on a cheap thing?
“You’re…” Cough.
Rosetta’s hand went to his which was around her neck, coughing gently.
?️ What’s he going to do to her?
?️ That watch looks expensive, he’s definitely gonna ki|| her.
“Do you know how much I bought that wristwatch?” Romeo asked gently, though rage was laced in his voice. His eyes went to her dressing and he smirked.
“This can buy the whole of your family’s life!” He said.
Rosetta’s eyes widened. One thing she’d never accept was someone insulting her family. Even though her parents weren’t the typical good parents, she’d never tolerate anyone insulting them.
“How f-__-king dare you call that a cheap thing?!” Romeo asked angrily.
He suddenly released her and faced his guards.
“Does she work here?” He asked.
“I don’t know, Boss. I’ll find out,” a guard rushed out.
Almost immediately, he returned and nodded his head frantically.
“Yes, she works here… As a cleaner,” he informed.
“Cleaner?” Romeo chuckled. A mere cleaner destroyed his own wristwatch?
“Fire her,” he muttered and walked away.
Rosetta’s eyes widened. This definitely ain’t happening to her. Her legs turned and ran towards him, holding him by the arm. She quickly went on her knees.
“Please don’t, don’t fire me. I’m sorry, I was senseless” She blabbered, still on her knees.
“I’ll do anything, please don’t fire me,” Rosetta begged, she was on the verge of tears already. This was her only hope for crying out loud!
“Anything?” Romeo asked and she quickly nodded her head.
“Buy me the exact wristwatch,” Romeo smirked. Of course he knew she can never afford that.
But to his surprise, she immediately nodded her head.
“I’ll do that, just don’t fire me,” Rosetta blurted out, not realizing what she just uttered out.
“Then deliver it to me in just 12 hours!” He said before walking away, leaving Rosetta completely speechless.
“12… 12 hours??” Rosetta stuttered. Where was she to get the money from? She hadn’t eaten that morning, she even trekked to work and she was to deliver a wristwatch to him in 12 hours??
“Sono condannato {I’m doomed}” she mumbled beneath her breath.
Slowly, she got to her feet and dragged herself to the dressing room where she went to have a change of clothes. She was still on it when Anna and two girls entered. They exchanged glances before laughing amongst themselves.
“She’s so pathetic! Where’s she gonna get the money from?” The first girl laughed.
“Obviously from f-__-king a lotta Ďïčks,” Anna smirked, staring at Rosetta in disgust.
“Too bad, he doesn’t even recognize you anymore,” she added.
“Today is your final day here I guess, enjoy it while it lasts,” the second girl said.
“Are you done?” Rosetta asked, wearing a cap on her head.
“Huh?”
“If you are, then I’m out of here. Enjoy yourself jobless fools” she forced a smile at them before walking out of the room, carrying a bucket and mop stick along.
“That gut,” Anna fumed.

?️ Good morning, President
?️ Good morning, President
Different voices greeted Romeo as he entered the huge company. His black shoes shine brightly, as he walks with wealth screaming all around him.
He had a straight look on his face, not smiling a bit till he got to his personal office. Immediately he entered, he removed his jacket and placed it on a chair before settling down.
Diego came in afterwards, holding a book in his hands.
“Good morning, President” he bowed his head.
“What’s my schedule for today?” Romeo asked, switching on his computer.
“Erm…” Diego flipped through the book, glancing at each page.
“You have a meeting with Mrs. Rhoda by 12Pm, and Mr. Marcus will be visiting by 2pm. Then, there will be a board meeting by 4pm and…”
“Cancel the remaining ones,” Romeo cuts him off.
“Sir??” There was silence after that and Diego smiled awkwardly.
“Okay, President,” he said.
There was a knock on the door and after a “come in” by Diego, a guard entered.
“The watch has been repaired, Boss,” the guard said after greeting Romeo formally.
“Trash it away,” Romeo said immediately.
“What?” The guard’s eyes widened. His Boss spent millions on this particular wristwatch and then asked him to trash it away.
A glare from Romeo took him so suddenly and he immediately closed his opened mouth.
“Right away,” he bowed and quickly left the room.
“You should leave too,” Romeo said to Diego who immediately left the room, running after the guard.
“Wait… Can I have a look at this?” Diego asked the guard.
“Sure…” The guard handed the box to him. Diego opened the box and a gasp escaped his lips when he saw the wristwatch. This was completely perfect, no flaws.
“I really don’t get why he had to throw this, it just got delivered this morning” the guard complained
Diego shook his head before handing the box back to him.
“That’s his personality, you should trash that away as soon as possible,” Diego walked away.
****
Romeo was still working in his office, typing on his computer real fast. Call him a workaholic, that’s the type of person he is. He’s a man who’s only devoted to his work and won’t accept any type of clumsiness from anyone.
The sudden creaking on the door made him stop abruptly, he stared ahead and on seeing the person who entered the office, a smile found its way to his lips.
“You’ll always be Romeo, why the f-__-k didn’t you inform me you came back yesterday?” Marcus complained as he entered the office fully. He’s Romeo’s best friend.
“You were still going to find out anyway,” Romeo muttered, taking his attention back to his computer.
“Tsk tsk, wonder how your future wife is gonna cope with you,” Marcus said.
“What brings you here?” Romeo asked.
“Sul serio? {Seriously?}” Marcus scoffed.
“Then, should I just walk out?” He asked.
Romeo sighed before finally giving Marcus his attention.
“How have you been?” He asked and a smile spread on Marcus’s lips.
“Better,” he plopped himself on a chair and stretched his leg on the table, ignoring Romeo’s gaze on him.
“Been fine I think. How was your trip? Finally got the information you needed?” He asked.
“Hmm…” Romeo nodded.
“So, what did you find out?” Marcus asked, getting serious.
Romeo engaged in a conversation with him and with the look on their faces, one could guess it was a serious conversation.
“What are you going to do now?” Marcus asked after Romeo was done.
“What else? Just sit back and watch how they make a fool of themselves” a smirk found its way to Romeo’s lips.
****
“Cazzo! {f-__-k!}” Rosetta groaned as she cleaned the last toilet. She stretched her body, releasing a heavy breath afterwards.
The grumbling of her stomach made her realize she hasn’t had anything since the previous day and her mind drifted to Romeo immediately.
He had helped her the previous day, he even gave her a sumptuous meal on top. But, she had to repay him by breaking his watch?
“f-__-k me,” she mumbled, shutting her eyes tight.
Now, her job was on the line. Getting her Boss a wristwatch or losing her job. It was crystal clear that the latter would be her fate. Where in hell would she get the money to buy him a wristwatch??
Walking back to the dressing room, her mind was all filled up with the thought of what to eat. Hunger was slowly turning to her best friend and she could feel herself turning into an ugly lean girl.
“I might just commit suicide at this rate,” she mumbled to herself.
****
Romeo shook hands with the elderly woman before him as the woman got to her feet.
“Sperando di lavorare con voi in futuro {Hoping to work with you in the future}” the woman smiled.
“Piacere mio {My pleasure}” Romeo said. After exchanging more pleasantries, the woman left and Romeo sat on the chair. He stared at his hand with the hope of checking the time on his wristwatch and then he remembered her.
“Quella puttana {That Ɓîtçh}” he mumbled. He sighed and picked his phone before leaving the office, ignoring the greetings from his staff.
He finally got outside the company and a guard quickly opened the car door. Romeo entered and said to the driver…
“Drive me home,” he said, which the driver did immediately.
****
The car sped through the driveway till it finally reached the gigantic gate. The gate opened automatically and the car drove inside till it parked at the garage.
Romeo came down from his car and went inside without a word. It was an odd thing for him to be back home by that time but he needed to find out something.
He was still walking to his room when he began hearing odd sounds. Sounds like Mõ@ɲs and groans, with skins slapping against each other. One could have guessed what was going on.
Romeo kept walking till he got to the door with a straight look on his face. He opened the door and the sight that welcomed him was really unpleasant.
Helena was right in his bedroom, laying on fours with a guy hitting her from behind.
“Oh no, harder!!” Helena Mõ@ɲed crazily, oblivious to a pair of green eyes, watching their every move.
Romeo smirked before settling himself on a couch, crossing his legs together and he started pressing his phone not minding the sinful sounds coming out from the fornicators.
“f-__-k! I’m Cummin!!!” Helena screamed.
“Not yet!” The guy groaned. He made Helena face him, with Helena breathing heavily in anticipation.
But… Her eyes caught a figure in the room, pressing his phone. Her face cleared and she quickly pushed the guy off her, wiping her head with her sweaty palms.
“Ro… Romeo,” she stuttered, her heart beating hard against her chest. The guy was already sweating, turns out to be one of Romeo’s numerous guards
Romeo’s gaze went to them and he smiled lazily.
“Did I just disturb your fun?” He smirked.
“No, Romeo. It’s not what you think, he’s just massaging my body,” Helena blurted out foolishly.
“Voglio vedere un film interessante, quindi continua {I want to watch an interesting movie Bambina, so continue}” Romeo smiled and continued operating on his phone, leaving Helena speechless.
