hand and went back to her own cubicle.
                  Unable to help herself, she peeked up through her eyelashes, sneaking a quick glance at Dimitri through them. Angela didn’t know if it was a good or bad thing that her own cubicle was directly opposite Dimitri’s office. Sometimes, she literally felt like she could stare at him all day.
                  At only twenty-eight, Dimitri Fox was one of the world’s youngest billionaires. He came from one of the country’s most prestigious and influential families, but rumor had it that he built up his massive worldwide empire from scratch. He’d been hailed by the press as the businessman with the Midas touch, and Angela was beginning to believe the hype. Maybe it was his intelligence, his sharp business skills, or simply the fact that he was practically brimming with charisma, but Fox Enterprises were thriving around the globe.
                  Angela was so absorbed in her thoughts that she nearly missed the tall, striking blonde who whooshed past her cubicle. She gritted her teeth as Katie from accounting knocked once before entering Dimitri’s office, closing the door firmly behind her.
                  Great, Angela thought sourly. They’ll probably end up fucking over his desk or something.
                  She swallowed her resentment as she turned her attention back to the Greenwall report, firmly ignoring the audible thud that came from his office. It was followed by a loud giggle that had her pursing her lips in dismay.
                  Her instant messaging box suddenly popped up on her laptop screen. It was Lilly.
                  L. Edwards: You look like you’ve just swallowed a lemon or something!
                  A. Banner: Yeah pffft. Hearing something sour is more like it.
                  L. Edwards: Well, I’ve got news for you. The elusive person that we always talk about is going to be at Jango’s pub tonight, from what I’ve heard. You want to catch a drink there after work? It’s that new pub in the hotel we went to last time. The really posh one.
                  Angela hesitated and then typed a quick reply.
                  A. Banner: Okay. I just need to go home and change first. See you at eight.

Chapter 2
                  Her best friend’s eyes widened as she entered the hotel pub.
                  Angela paused at the entrance, tugging self-consciously on her uncharacteristically revealing outfit. Her curvaceous body was poured in a tight, tiny white strapless dress that contrasted magnificently with her dark skin. Her slender ankles were clad in towering gold stilettos and her long curls were swept to one side, exposing the faux diamond necklace twinkling at her throat. She tugged self-consciously at the dress, much too aware of the fact that it revealed more cleavage than she was used to showing.
                  More than one man stared at her as she swept through the darkened interior but Angela had eyes for one person only. Her heart sank when she spotted Lilly at the bar, but no Dimitri.
                  “Hey.” She hoisted herself up on a bar stool next to her friend and looked around. “Where’s Mr. Elusive?”
                  “I saw him go into the VIP section with a few people earlier and he’s since vanished.” Lilly threw back some tequila and winced as she reached for the lemon wedge.
                  “I’ll have a tequila, please,” Angela said to the barman as she retrieved some bills. “The whole bottle, thanks.”
                  Lilly’s eyes widened as the barman opened a bottle and set it next to Angela along with a shot glass, some lemon wedges, and salt. Ignoring the glass, Angela bought the bottle to her lips and took an insanely long swallow. She gasped, her eyes watering as the fiery liquid
