Reborn for Revenge: I Married A Billionaire

Glass doors slid open as Ruby walked into the office as if she owned the place. She didn’t slow down as she approached the reporting desk.

The receptionist looked up, "Ma’am. May I help—"

"New hire!" Ruby raised her shoulder with a fake sweet smile and placed her sunglasses on the counter.

The receptionist blinked in confusion, "Name, please?"

With a chuckle, Ruby waved her hand, like it didn’t matter, "You’ll know soon, darling."

Today, she was in high spirits and sure that her circumstances would change for the better. She turned away before poor Nora could say anything.

Bringing her glasses to her lips, she scanned the reception area and then landed on a familiar figure.

Hunter Levisay.

The same Hunter who didn’t allow her to live at his place... without his wife’s permission.

"You were never this caring, Hunter," she told him silently. He stood a few steps away, going through some files.

A small smile crossed her face as she realized he was also Sienna’s secretary.

"Perfect."

She walked towards him without hesitation, "Hey, Hunter," She stopped right in front of him, "Can you get me a coffee from Starbucks? You see... today is my first day, I don’t want to disappoint Sienna... our madam boss."

Hunter didn’t even look up.

Ruby frowned slightly and tapped his arm, "Without cream, no sugar."

Hunter still hadn’t responded, so Ruby turned to a passing by employee, "Excuse me," she said sweetly, "Who do I talk to about my private office?"

The man eyed her from head to toe in confusion, "Private office?"

"Yeah," She adjusted her hair, "I don’t sit in open spaces."

He shot a nervous glance at Hunter and then back at Ruby, "I think you should..."

Ruby waved him off, "Just tell me where it is."

She almost forgot about the man when she saw Hunter still there.

Urgh, he still manages to annoy me.

She forced a polite smile onto her face, "Didn’t I ask you to bring me coffee, Hunter?"

Hunter was acting as if he were made of stone and couldn’t hear her. She stepped a little closer, lowering her voice, "Please go now!" she added sweetly, "Otherwise my head won’t be clear enough for any upcoming task."

Hunter slowly lifted his face, which was still expressionless, and then straightened with a sigh, "Fine."

Sienna stood outside the office building. Her one hand was holding the phone while the other was resting on her hip.

"Hmm. Tell me," She lowered her voice, "It’s better be good, Finn."

Finns spoke quickly, "I wasn’t sure if I should say this on the call, madam boss, but ... it’s about the bidding."

Sienna felt her heart racing, "What about it?"

Finn hesitated for a second, then told her the figure. There was a brief pause, and then the corners of her mouth lifted.

"Are you sure?" She tightened her hold on her phone in excitement.

"Completely. I double checked it."

Sienna let out a soft sigh as she closed her eyes in satisfaction, "You’re due for a raise, Finn. Good work! Now go and rest. I’ll handle the rest."

For a moment, she just stood there, staring ahead. Her encounter with Tom was still fresh in her mind, and so was the slap she gave him.

She walked inside the building, ignoring the people in the lobby. On her way to her office, her eyes kept searching for one face.

Her husband, Hunter Levisay.

Where is he? She thought in irritation.

She suddenly turned to the nearest desk, "Have you seen Hunter?"

The employee shook his head, "No, ma’am boss."

Sienna frowned and moved ahead. She spotted Peter outside her office, "Hey, Peter. Where is Hunter?"

Peter shook his head, "He was in the reception area a few minutes back."

Sienna’s brows pulled together. She took out her phone and dialed his number. It rang, but he didn’t receive it.

Where is he? He was supposed to be here before me. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

She stared at the screen, there was no message from him.

"Where were you?" She snapped the moment she saw Hunter stepping inside the office. Hunter looked at her and shrugged, "I went out."

She stood behind her desk, with her arms crossed over her chest, "I’ve been calling you. You weren’t even receiving my call."

He rounded the desk and pulled her into his arms. She resisted by placing her palms on his chest. However, he still managed to lean his forehead against hers, "Hey, firecracker. I went out to bring coffee."

"You did what?" She moved back and tilted her face to look at him, "Coffee?"

"For Ruby. She wanted Starbucks."

There was a pause. She didn’t see that coming, "You actually went out to bring coffee? For Ruby?"

Hunter pursed his lips and nodded, "Yes. Today is her first day, and she was kinda having a headache... so... I know she is your sister, and I don’t mind helping your family..."

"Oh, but I do mind, Hunter," Sienna let out a sharp breath and turned on her heel, "Let me handle this."

She went out to the main area and found Ruby near the reception desk, talking to Nora. The two of them seemed to be chatting like old friends.

A few colleagues had gathered around, enjoying their gossip. Sienna’s expression hardened.

She walked straight towards them. Nora noticed her first and buried her head in a folder. When Ruby saw her, her grin got wider, "Hey, hi, Sienna. I’m here. As you can see, I’ve already made friends. They didn’t believe me when I told them that their madam boss is my sister. Hehe."

"What exactly do you think you’re doing?" Sienna’s tone was cold as she cut off Ruby.

Ruby’s smile paused for a second, "Umm... I was just talking about..."

"Talking?" Sienna frowned, "These are working hours, Ruby. No one comes to my office to talk. And who the hell gave you permission to send my staff out for your coffee?"

Suddenly, Ruby’s head started reeling. This was not the Sienna she was used to... and for the first time, this made her uneasy.
