The Love From Vengeance

107 OFFICE INTRIGUE
LUKE’S POV
“Ariel! Ariel!” I knocked on the door continuously, but she still didn’t come out to give me an answer. The door was locked from
the inside, and she was screaming for help. But what the hell was going on? Who was trying to follow through with nonsense in
that office?
I was standing close to Rose, the lady who used to work at my company. Well, we were all familiar with the reason for me, firing
her. But here she was now, working for The Vitality Group. I couldn’t care less anyway, but being close to her made me sick.
Anyway, I had come to see Ariel to discuss certain things. Well, I wanted to apologize for what happened earlier today. I had to
realize I went a little bit crazy. But the moment I got close to her office, I was having second thoughts. Until I heard her screaming
from the inside.
“Luke!” I heard Ariel’s voice once again.
“Something is definitely going wrong in there,” Rose said.
“You think I don’t know that?” I refused to glance at her.
“It’s obvious Mrs. Reynold is in trouble. We have to save her.”
“Will you please shut up?” I gave her an unfriendly look. She adjusted her glasses
in silence.
I could hear Ariel screaming from the inside, and my mind wasn’t at ease. Who in

the world had the nerve to go in there, bringing terror upon her? Whatever was going on there needed to stop. But how was I
going to get this door open?
“Sir, we need to get in that office as soon as possible,” Rose told me, and I had to let out a sigh in annoyance.
“You know, you don’t have to say a damn word, alright?”

“I’m sorry, sir. But that’s my boss in there. And if you don’t want to do anything, I’m going to call the cops.”
I shook my head, taking my eyes off her. After observing the door, I elbowed it with all of my might. It was quite painful, but I
decided to do that repeatedly, compounding the force. And one last strike at the door caused it to open.
I quickly entered the office, with Rose walking behind me, and I saw Daniel getting off Ariel. He walked in my direction
immediately and tried striking my countenance. Well, I seized his hand and threw a punch at his face.
How dare he try to do something so disgraceful? He tried to force himself on my wife. Okay, I think I needed to correct that: he
tried to force himself on Ariel, something I never relished in this life.
If I were to see any woman being outraged, I’d do everything in my power to save Ther. Just like when I caught this man trying to
force himself on one of my friends back then, when I was still a teenager. I had to beat the hell out of him, translating into a lot of
people being baffled. They called me the young Hercules.
Daniel wanted to fight back, but my rage at the moment had unleashed the beast in me. A demon that couldn’t be tamed, and
the anger was so intense, as if I had loved this woman my whole life.
I punched Daniel in the face and delivered another one to him. That was how I
kept on striking his visage till he landed on the ground. His face was bleeding, and my fist was covered in blood, a result of all
the vigorous punches. You could feel sorry for him.
I glanced at Ariel, who had Rose standing by her side. Her hair was messy, and there were scratches on various parts of her
body, especially her face. I didn’t like that one bit. This useless man wanted to ruin her beauty, which was clearly not acceptable.
“Ariel,” I called her name, treading towards her. “I hope you’re alright.”

She nodded as she responded softly, “I think I am.”
“Why did you have to let this man enter your office? You know how dangerous he
can be.”
“I didn’t know.” She shook her head, gently fixing her hand on her neck. “And he just barged into my office. He didn’t even bother
to get permission.”
“How?” I quizzed.
“How was I supposed to know? I was just sitting here in my office, not having any knowledge of what’s going on outside the
door.”
I glared at Rose. “Then it must be this lady’s fault.”
“Don’t blame me, okay? I too didn’t know the time this man walked into her office.” Rose defended herself.
“Then you weren’t doing your job properly,” I retorted.

“I was busy, working on a project at that time.”
“You should have still been on guard.”
“Okay, Luke, please, I don’t want this argument to take place. I really appreciate. the fact that you just saved me from Daniel, but
please, you shouldn’t do this. right now. It’s nobody’s fault.”

I couldn’t believe this lady. I helped her, and just look at how she was talking to
1. me.
“Luke, can you please tell me what you did to Daniel?” Ariel asked.
I glared at Daniel right away. “What did he tell you?”
“He said nothing. But he had to let me know you’re the reason for the actions he carried out.”
I couldn’t help but chuckle. “What a fool.”
“Isn’t it true?” Daniel spoke immediately, slowly getting to his feet as he tried to catch his breath. “You wanted to ruin my
business, Luke Reynold.”
“What did you do?” Ariel queried, like I was obligated to give her an answer. I could just walk out of here if I wanted. Nobody was
going to do anything.
“Luke.” Ariel’s tone was filled with eagerness.
“Can you please calm down?”
“Well, can you just tell me what you did to him?”
“Why are you so eager to know?”
“Because I almost got raped today!” Ariel answered loudly. “So this is literally my
business.”
“You want to know, right? Fine, I’ll tell you,” I said after staring at her for a moment. I pointed at Daniel as I spoke, “This man here
wanted to drug you. He was planning to invite you over to his company so he could have sex with your once you’re insensible.
Am I lying, Daniel?”
1 continued, “The moment I found out about his evil plan, I went straight to his company and bought almost all of his workers.”
“You did what now?” Ariel raised an eyebrow.

“Well, I didn’t buy them, actually. I just gave them money to resign from his company and join mine.”
“How in the world did you do that?” Ariel expressed admiration.
“I wasn’t notorious for nothing.”
Ariel’s face could tell she was still in awe. “But that’s..”
“Crazy. I know, right?” I cut her off. “But it didn’t end there. I had to beat the hell out of this man, warning him. It looks like he still
hasn’t learned his lesson.”
Ariel glared at Daniel. “And I thought you were the good guy.“.
“And I was the bad guy,” I said straightaway. “This is how you think of me. I totally deserve it.”
“Are you surprised?” she asked.
“Well, no,” I answered lowly.
“Exactly.” She nodded. Her eyes widened instantly. “Look out!”
