Mafia Love Affair: From One Night To Forever
He Was Selfish!

Samuel was tapping his fingers anxiously on the wooden desk, his eyes were glued to the door of his office as he was patiently waiting for someone to show up but the person was late and testing his patience badly. He exhaled a frustrated breath and ran his hand in his hair but quickly jerk up his head to look at the door when heard the clicking sound of high heels approaching his office.

His eyes squinted when the knob of the door was twisted and pushed revealing the one and only Clara Peterson standing under the door frame smiling sheepishly at her friend who had gloomy expressions worn on his face, but her smile quickly vanished when looking more intently she found the bruises on his faces, in shock she left the door and stepped forward standing very close to him.

'Oh my God! What happened to you Samuel' she placed her index finger lightly near the corner of his eye, that had the black mark around it, he hissed at the pain he felt and pushed her hand.

'What are you doing? It hurts' he snapped, the incident of yesterday had already made him cranky and now she had pointed out it when he tried his best to lighten it, getting how she caught that from the distance the thought crept in to his mind that all of his employees must had noticed this and might have enjoyed after making fun of him at his back, withh the thought in his mind, the surge of hatred and rage grows inside of him.

'I'm sorry, but how the hell this happened, did you had fight with someone' Samuel narrows his eyes, he couldn't tell her what happened yesterday nor she had to know anything about their and Martini's relationship, it was their personal fight which has nothing to do with her.

'It is none of your business Clara, forget it and tell me why you didn't show up on the time?' Clara rolled up her tongue nervously and forced a smile on her face, but watching him glaring at her she clears her throat to answer.

'I was leaving and would have been here at sharp ten but dad stopped me at the very moment to discuss something related to business, that's why I am late' she shrugs her shoulder and sighed inwardly to come up with the perfect excuse, she was trying her best to act normal.

'What business matter?' Samuel asked casually.

'It is none of your business' she snapped back at him and moved away going around to sit across to him on the chair, placing her hand bag on the chair beside her.

'Whatever, I have called you here to talk about the serious matter and that is of your own benefit' leaning back on his chair he folds his hands, keeping her petite figure in his eyes.

Since they both had agreed to help each other she got the message immediately and her interest pique.

'Go ahead, I am here now and we can discuss, I have plenty of time' she leaned forward giving him a flirty smile, Samuel nodded ignoring her seduction.

'Martini group has set up the new branch in Florida which will work to connect their business with international businesses' she tilted her head and listened to him intently.

'I have used my ways to get you in that branch working as an employee, soon they are starting their operations over their, may be after this weekend' Clara pouted.

'Why in that branch? And why not in the one he uses to sit and manage the business?' Samuel rolls his eyes.

'As per my resources Autumn is going to be promoted and she will be transferred to this branch and it could become the best possible way for you to dishearten her from Alessandro' she re phrase his words in her own mind to understand what he was trying to say and once she did, an appreciative smile made its way on her lips.

'Remember you have to remove her from your way first to get to the Alessandro' Samuel explains her how this will lead.

'Yeah yeah, I remember. It is perfect' she snapped her fingers in joy, she actually liked the idea. This way she will be able to teach Autumn a lesson without getting it noticed by anyone.

'Don't be very harsh on her, you just have to feed bad things about him to her slowly and gradually until you're not sure that you have succeeded in fed up her about him' seeing the evil sparkles in her eyes Samuel found it necessary to restrict her movements.

Clara scrunches her face, she did not like his interference while she was plotting down her plan.

'You do care for her huh?' she mocked him.

'I want her back in my life, if you have forgot let me remind you that we have deal in which you want to get to Alessandro and I want Autumn back' Samuel's voice swiftly turns to stern, he won't tolerate the bullying or humiliation on Autumn. 'As far as I remember you broke with her very harshly, she was even pleading to you to not do this with her but you were really very cruel at that time, what you say?' tapping her finger lightly on her lips she raised her brows at him, Samuel pressed his lips tightly and lowered her head, a knowing smile spread on Clara's lips.

'Exactly, that's what I wanted to tell you, no matter how much you care for her now she definitely had kept that day in her memory and that might restrict her to come back to you' Samuel glared at her, who shrugs her shoulder in response. 'Think about it, I am your friend and helping you. Anyways, I think we don't have anything else to discuss so I should take my leave. Just let me know the date from when I have to start this job, I will prepare my schedule accordingly then' she stood from the chair after pushing it, taking her hand bag she looked at him, Samuel nodded with closed eyes, taking a hint Clara turn to leave the room, once he heard the noise of door being shut he opened his eyes and exhaled a deep breath.

'That bitch has big mouth' he muttered in frustration, teh bitter truth she spoke to him had disturb him badly, the more he was thinking about it the more his heart was sinking. Thought of getting far from Autumn was burning him from inside, he doesn't want to lose her but he had to admit that what Clara said was right, in past he was selfish but now he regrets on his action.
