Chapter 1 - Matilda

15th of August 2023

"Gracious!" Matilda yelped.

"Who's there?" The man from inside asked.

Matilda had just gotten a new job at a restaurant in the city. After all that had happened in her life within the past few months, only her friend was there to support her.

5 hours ago...

"Good morning ma, I am Matilda, the new chef." Matilda greeted the middle aged woman the secretary had asked her to meet.

"Ohh, good morning dear. I am miss Helen. The kitchen is on the 2nd floor by the left." The nice woman answered her with a smile.

"Ok ma. Thank you ma." Matilda was surprised as why a woman probably in her mind 40's was still single.

Having said that, Matilda headed to the second floor and started work for the day.

"Oh my god! Did you see Mr Xi?"

" Yes. He is so cute." Two female workers were gossiping about the Most famous CEO of XI. Foods and Beverages Industry. Matilda could only listen and sigh. She has heard of Levy Xi, the egotistical CEO of where she works. At least, that's what she thinks about him. She never thought she would cross paths with him again after what happened 3 years ago, but now situations has brought her back to him and now she is working for him. She could only sigh as she continued her work, silently praying to God never to cross paths with him.

After finishing for the day's work, Matilda was packing, getting ready to go home. Working as a chef in a high class restaurant was something everyone would want to do, especially if they could get to see the handsome Levy Xi. But for Matilda, it was not.

She was heading downstairs when someone stopped her.

"Miss Yen, please can you go give these files to Mr Xi? He asked for them and I want to go to the hospital, it is time for my test." Mary, a worker in the restaurant asked.

"You mean I should go give these to Mr Xi?" Matilda asked.

"Yes, sure. Don't worry, he is not scary. Just go to the top floor, then head straight down. The door by the end of the corridor is his office." Mary gave directions to Matilda. Matilda could only shake her head as she took the file from her and went to the elevator. Only the gods in heaven knows how Matilda was shaking in the elevator. She was going to meet the man she dreaded the most in this world after 3 years.

The elevator stopped on the top floor. Matilda stepped outside and every step she took to the end of the corridor said only one thing 'Levy Xi' God of heaven, what has she gotten herself into. Finally, she got to the end and was staring at two golden double large doors. Matilda was about to knock when she heard something, no someone. She heard the most obsidian voice ever and she know it would only belong to non other that Levy Xi.

"Find them all and strip them, make them dance naked in front of those men. Anyone who messes with Levy shall never go free" A man's voice coming from inside said.

"Gracious" Matilda yelped. Her hand flew to her mouth. Of course, what was she expecting from the cold and wicked Levy. 'He hasn't changed' she thought. She was about to leave when someone called from inside.

"Who's there?" The man from inside asked.

'oh no, he heard me' she thought. Matilda was already panicking, she was about to turn away, when the large double doors opened. Matilda looked up, and a pair of ocean eyes greeted her.
