Prologue...

EVERYONE is hasty. Everyone is walking fast like they are running out of time, no one dares to waste a second because of the possibilities of what will be its outcome. Because they know that the new CEO is coming.

Clovis Falcon Cross, the grandson of the Cross Enterprise founder Charleston Rey Cross. Gossips tells that the new CEO is handsome and masculine - traits of a military personnel. He came from his two years military service and no one knows how's his attitudes are. But even though they knew that there is a possibilities that he is so strict like his grandfather, the staffs feel delighted and excited for the fact that he is a handsome and masculine young man.

Everyone stratled when a man stopped in the doorway of their office. They turned to the man, and there he is, a six footer guy standing so firm and straight. Giving a glance in each one of them. His presence is so intimidating that makes your heart pound non-stop. So intimidating that made them want to drool because of his great physique and elegance with his simple tux.

They all turned their heads to the opposite direction where they felt the presence of the former CEO's secretary who is now in the rush to the new comer hunk. "I-I am sorry, Sir. I didn't expect that you'll come here this early." Cynthia said to the new comer.

The staffs realized who is the new comer, it is indeed the military personnel grandson of the founder.

"So unprofessional." They gasped and their eyes widen for what he said. His voice is full of coldness and authority that can send chills down to your spine. But no one can deny that he is still attractive with his voice that is low and husky.

'Is this the result of a military service?' They thought while looking at the young Clovis Cross.

"I am sorry." Cynthia apologized, her voice cracked like she's about to burst and cry.

"Don't say sorry." Cynthia looked at her boss. Did she really heared it right? The man looked at her with his emotionless eyes and added, "Because you are fired.", and then he walked passed Cynthia who is now frozen from where she stands.

When she recovered, she followed Clovis in his office to beg for mercy, but he is heartless and shove the poor woman away and ordered his butler to find a new secretary that will suit his taste.

Every staffs in the office felt pity toward Cynthia. One mistake led her to her removal from her work she loved the most for years. The staffs are nervous, and they thought, 'Will this be the start of their hellish life with the new CEO of the Cross Enterprise?'

EYES are now locked to her while she is walking down the hall. She looked like an employee but no one recognizes a beautiful lady working in a hell company like this. Especially now, Cynthia tasted the roughness of the new CEO.

She stopped when she saw a crying lady walking toward her direction, her head's downcast while she is carrying a box of her belongings. Employees are watching her and feel pity toward the secretary. She worked in Cross Enterprise with dedication and perseverance, and in a snap, she was removed by the cruel new CEO of the Cross Enterprise.

She looked at the crying lady while standing in the middle of the hallway. And when Cynthia is about to bump with her, she finally speak. "Come with me." She ordered.

Cynthia feels hesitant to follow a stranger, but she still obliged and followed the woman in the coffee shop inside the Cross Enterprise.

The woman can be compared as the male version of the ruthless CEO but the woman infront of her looks so sweet and kind. The woman looks like an angel in formal attire while the new CEO is like a devil hiding in an attractive man's flesh.

The woman ordered foods for her and coffee for herself. Cynthia is curious who is this woman would be. She motioned Cynthia to put down her belongings and sit across her, and Cynthia obliged while breathing heavily. Her orders came and no one said something while they both consuming their foods. But Cynthia, who's eaten by curiousity break the silence between them.

"May I know who are you and why are you doing this?" She asked to the woman.

The woman put down her mug and turned to Cynthia who is now looking at her with curiousity. She expected it.

"I expected that question before you know it, my dear. Besides, I am hidden somewhere for years that no one knows who I am which is a good thing for me." She paused and smiled at Cynthia. "Don't worry, I'll never going to hurt you."

"But who are you?" Cynthia is really eager to know who is this woman.

"Does it matter who am I?" The woman asked.

"For you, it doesn't matter, but for me, it is important, Ma'am."

The woman looked at Cynthia's eyes and sighed. "Let's just say that, I will be the one who'll make the man who hurt and removed you from here, I am the one who will teach him learn how to kneel and bow down on my heels." She answered.

Cynthia gasped for what the woman said. 'Who would have thought of teaching the new CEO a lesson?'

"How can you say that Ma'am? The new CEO is a devil."

The woman chuckled. "Is he that bad? To be compared to a devil? To a monster?" She asked, still chuckling.

"Why are you laughing?" Cynthia asked.

The woman stopped and sipped her coffee, she closed her eyes and smile. "It's funny that 'he' told me that, that man is an angel like him." She muttered. She opened her eyes and looked at Cynthia with her serious face. "But I think he is not that 'angel'."

Cynthia gulped while looking at the woman infront of her. She is sweet at first sight, and now, she is scary with her serious face. 'This is not a second monstrous wave, right?'

"Do you mind telling me why did he fired you?" She asked.

"Ahmm. I-I was late and I-I didn't have the chance to welcome him properly." She nervously answered.

"Oh, if that's the case, you're still responsible with your deeds, my dear." She smiled again ang finished her coffee. She called for the waiter for the bill and after she paid it, she looked at Cynthia again. "Eat well, that's my treat. I need to go."

The woman stand up and was about to leave when Cynthia hold her hand. "M-may I know your name?" She nervously asked.

"I am Selena, Clovis Cross' fiancee." She answered and walked away, leaving Cynthia shocked for what she discovered.

'Will this be a battle between a devil in military suit and an angel in office attire suit? Will this be a war between an unknown couple?'
