Jane's POV

While I walked back to the room… 'Jane!" Hades' deep voice called out to me. I turned, having the intention to speak with him.


The echo of what the maid had said resounded in my head. ‘I don't want to be caught unfresh.' Having that thought in my head, 'I will be back." I said, pacing back into the room with speed.

Hades' eyes turned pale with surprise. ‘What's wrong with her? That's weird.' He retorted softly.

But I do not care about his thoughts at the moment. All I had in mind was to get to the room as quickly as possible.


Door creaked just as I opened. I rushed inside and locked it behind me. ‘What would Hades think of me? First he found me drunk and now, I couldn't even shower? He must have thought I was a pig… Gosh.' I perceived my armpit…'Eew!!' I was irritated by the smell of it. I stripped myself naked and rushed into the bathroom.

With the use of bathroom soap, I took my time to wash myself thoroughly… While I was washing, fragments of memories of what had happened to me after the alcohol yesterday came crawling in my head.


‘What was I thinking?' I was disgusted by how I puked all over the place. ‘Hade's must have found me troubling.' I whimpered with shame. After taking my bath, I walked out of the bathroom after drying my body.

I applied body lotion throughout my body mildly and I used body perfume. Just for me to be proud of myself again.

When I was done, I felt like that elegant woman I once was. I style myself in the clothes I found on my body when I woke.

I walked out of my room and I came across another maid.

'You look perfectly stunning, Ma'am. Kindly go to the dining room for your breakfast. Mr Hades is waiting for you." She informed me.

My heart hit against my chest mildly. The pressure held my heart tightly and I had to puff some breath out my nostrils to let out the fear. ‘How am I going to face Hades?'

At first, I was very eager to see Hades just to question him, because I thought I was perfect. But now that I know he was the victim… I felt ashamed of myself and now, I was shy.

'Ma'am?!" The maid before me called out.

‘Gosh.' Her voice called my attention and I didn't know I was absent minded. My eyes impacted her and I half-smiled subtly like everything was okay.

'Where is the way to the dining room?" I asked. She turned and pointed towards the room.

'Okay." I walked to the dining room, leaving the maid behind.

Just as my feet made a sound, Hades heightened his gaze when I got to the dining room and his eyes came in contact with mine.

I stood transfixed to ground. Pressured! I couldn't help the breath that fumed out of my nostrils.

Hades half-smiled when he realized how inconvenient I was. He lowered his gaze and returned to the food he was eating. That gesture of his reminded me of my confidence. I took a slow walk to the chair and sat down.

'Good morning." Hades greeted me first.

I closed my eyes and had to let down the tension. 'Good morning." I greeted abruptly.

'Why did you drink that much? Are you in some kind of crisis?" Hades asked while he took another bite from the salad.

'Not at all. I just felt like having fun." I forced those words out with a load of tension.

Hades shot a glare at my eyes and his lips curved with a smile.

'Telling lies doesn't fit you, you know?" He dropped the fork in his hand and glared at me.

'What do you mean by that?" Even though the tension had lessened, I stuttered in my response.

'You told me that Your cousin made you bankrupt when I asked why you drank that much yesterday." Hades replied to me.

‘Gosh!' I slammed my hand on my forehead, getting pissed about my nonchalant expression. I was afraid I could have let out more sensitive information.

'Did I say anything more than that?" I asked him.

'No, other than telling me you are looking for a way to kick out your cousin from your company." Hades detailed.

‘Auch! Have said things I shouldn't have.' Feeling bad…. 'So, what is the reason for you drinking?" He asked me.

I puffed out some breath from my nostrils. 'I do not want to share. And forget about everything I said to you. I was just drunk."

After saying that to him, Hades picked up his fork and continued eating.

I took another bite from the food. Troubled about what was in my mind… 'did… Did you get down with me?" I asked him with a stutter.

He arched his left eyebrow. 'You are such a naive young lady. If you must know, I didn't." He replied to me.

He calmed my nerves with his reply and Instead of me eating more, I completely lost my appetite. ‘I've got to go." I stood up hurriedly and left the dining room aiming for the outside.

Hades stared at me in awe and he had to rush after me.

'Your car is not here. How do you intend to reach home all by yourself?" Hades asked after catching up with me.

'Do not worry. I have my phone with me." I said and quickly contacted my driver. But the network wasn't connecting.

I dialled the number again and again.

'What is the problem?" Hades asked.

'Are you ready to go out now? I need to be on my way to my office." I said, shooting him a sharp glare.

'I have my driver. He will take you anywhere you want." As soon as Hades said that, his driver opened the door of the car that wasn't far from us.

'You can start going." He said. With much thought, I got into the already opened car and the driver started taking to where I wanted.

My phone beeps. And when I checked, I realized it was an internet notification with the head line, ‘CEO gets drunk and embarrassed.'

I quickly opened it and the image I saw made me widen my eyes and my jaw dropped. 'Bloggers!!!" I grunted with disappointment.
