Seven ways to love a dangerous man

" This pen can't be ordered unless you go to its company," a man in a black suit said, leaning back in his chair. Warning the two ladies sitting across from him, in his office.

Jenna raised a brow " What is your suggestion? Mr Smith, I need to buy this pen. How difficult is it since I have enough money to buy it?" She scoffed, " I will pay twice the price. What about that?" She then glanced at her best friend, Kelly " Tell me what money can't buy"

Kelly rolled her eyes dramatically " He said it's not about money" Kelly sighed," Money can't give you everything Jenna."

"But I'm rich enough to buy anything," Jenna sighed, frustrated.

"Forget about the money, you're rich because you're surrounded by rich people. I own the K and L fashion brand, Esteban, your friend owns The Bells, and Norman, the best lawyer who will do anything for you. Look at your kids, stinky rich, your daughter is an international model"

Jenna raised a brow " So what? Did I collect money from you guys except for an Estate from Norman, a Lamborghini from my first son, a full wardrobe of the latest clothes from you, a mansion from Esteban..."

" So, tell me where I collect money from you?"

Kelly sighed, everything about Jenna is always difficult. " We've spoiled you, Jenna. Don't think I don't know your ex-husband father-in-law isn't helping you, that's why you think you're feeling like Elon Musk," she pointed at Jenna, who burst into laughter.

Mr Smith looked at Jenna in disbelief, are they not more valuable than money?

Kelly brought out her phone and Googled the pen. Jenna will never rest until she gets the pen. " I wonder why it's difficult to order"

" Not just any pen, it's rare technology, only five produced every year, but this is the only one left" he chuckled. " I'm very sure you don't know what it's used for, and the reason why it's difficult to order; it's because of its dangerous technology. What did you want to use it for?"

" Ohhh, that... one of her weird triplets needs it", Kelly laughed. " Let me guess, the cold CEO boy, Adan"

The man frowned in confusion and looked at Jenna. " Is there something I didn't know?"

" Hahahaa, Dad, you're too busy to know her triplets are psychos, the oldest is a mysterious little boy who is ruling over a company at the age of eight"

" Wow!" He said, very surprised. " How's that even possible?" He knew about the rich triplets, but he barely paid any attention to them.

" Like I said, they're psychopaths"

" Are they really psychopaths?" His daughter jokes a lot, so he found it hard to believe her.

" Not the three, only one" she raised one finger " His name is Adian," Jenna said. She glared at her friend. " People called them that because... they are jealous, what's wrong with kids acting like adults?"

" You see, they're only eight, and you will be suffocated just by staying with them," Kelly exaggerated. " One is as cold as ice, the second is a dangerous Mafia boss. The youngest girl among them is a Queen model."

" Wow, that's impressive, I'm very sure they took after your husband", he teased.

Jenna rolled her eyes. " I've told you, we've divorced, and that's eight years ago; he doesn't even know about my kids' existence" She frowned and gritted her teeth. " Why are you bringing up the bad memory"

" Fine, how are you going to get the pen if you're holding grudges with the CEO"

Jenna froze, " What?" She exchanged looks with Kelly.

" Yes, the pen is produced by the AH Technology company, and Archie Hindley is the CEO," Mr Smith said, and turned his laptop screen to them.

Jenna looked at the screen in daze, he's right, her ex-husband is the owner of AH Technology. So it means she has to face Archie to get the pen?

She wished she would give up on it, but she couldn't. She had promised her son she would get it no matter what. Her son has the money to buy five, but he must register his identity to get it. And that's hard for him, his identity is still unknown to the world. His face is very similar to Archie's.

" Ahhh, how about you tell your handsome friend, Esteban, he rules the entertainment industry and is also a childhood friend of your ex," Kelly suggested.

Jenna raised a brow " I don't like the way you love him, knowing he doesn't love." She laughed. Kelly's face changed.

"He's in Paris with Norman, they're busy on the case of his most talented artist," she added. Esteban's company is one of the top ten; but he's unavailable.

" Still have feelings for that boy? I told you he's dangerous, you deserve a prince, not a mafia," Mr Smith said.

Kelly's face paled. Her love for him was just love at first sight, it started the moment he saw him with Jenna " What about your ex-father-in-law? I heard you're still in touch with him" She smiled. Mr Israel, Jenna's ex-father-in-law, is another powerful person in the business world.

Being surrounded by dangerous and powerful people is a blessing. The four of them, Jenna, Norman, Esteban and Archie are childhood friends.

" Not around" Jenna sighed. " There's no good person between Esteban and Archie. Especially now that he owned a company. Although I didn't encounter many obstacles to get him, he loved me too. But that jerk chose to believe an outsider over me, and I hate that"

" Then what will you do about that?" Mr Smith asked.

" Going there"

Kelly and Mr Smith exchanged looks. Kelly laughed and sniffed dramatically " Ahhh, something fishy is about to happen"

Jenna glared at her " I'm going there to register and get the pen, that's all. Archie has a dangerous dark side as Esteban. Do you think I'm ready to get involved with him?"

" Okay, please make sure you tell me everything when you're back, so I can continue from where I stopped." Kelly giggled.

Jenna frowned, "You're not writing a story about us, are you?"

" Yes, I'm currently writing a story about your love life. I like how you snatched the man you want from his ex-girlfriend..." Jenna quickly covered her mouth and gave Mr Smith a fake smile.

" Ahhh, not that, the thing is...." She retrieved her hand from Kelly's mouth and sighed. She can't believe she has done crazy things to date Archie. " I've been crushing on him ever since he joined our friends' club. He was shy and quiet, so I made an attempt to confess, but then I found out he already had a girlfriend! I was like, What the fuck?!" She burst into laughter.

" He's supposed to be mine, how dare a lady suddenly pop out of nowhere and steal him from me? So I was like, Nah, it's not gonna happen, not even under my nose"

Mr Smith frowned in confusion " Wait, how is the boy yours since you're just his friend?" He wants to know why some ladies do this.

Jenna raised a brow " He knew I loved him and still dared to date someone, I labelled the girl a thief, boyfriend snatcher, I pushed her aside and confessed my feelings for him"

Mr Smith shook his head in disbelief "You're a bad girl, served you right for the divorce"

Jenna laughed " How am I bad? I've been keeping my feelings for years, and I even helped the girl; she knows nothing about how dangerous it is to date Archie. His mother can kill her without any traces if she refuses to break up with him"

" She divorced him, Dad, not him", Kelly defended her Jenna.

Jenna stood and texted her assistant " Arrange a meeting with AH Technology tomorrow"

"Ahh, thanks so much, Mr Smith. I will give you feedback tomorrow. See you later, Kelly. I have a lot to arrange.

" Yes, make sure you dress sexy and show him he's the loser," Kelly said and laughed. Watched Jenna's back till she left, then looked at her father in confusion " What do you think will happen tomorrow?"

" Romance" he replied nonchalantly.

" Not that, I don't know much about Archie, I met Jenna a year after they divorced, but I heard he didn't bother to look for her. Jenna told me she devorced him and disappeared without his knowing"

Mr Smith raised a brow, he ignored her and started typing on his keyboard.

" Dad! You're not working with that scary man, are you?" She scoffed. " I'm weary of Archie's Father. Jenna can register online and go to the company to collect it, she can send anyone to collect the pen, what concerns the CEO with that?"

" Look, I'm just doing what I am instructed to do" he sighed. " You don't know anything about these dangerous men, and yet you fell for one of the? a mafia boss of all people. Must you follow Jenna's footsteps?" He looked at his daughter, confused. Some ladies are afraid of dangerous men, but his daughter is just crazy and blinded by love.

" Not dangerous to me, I even found his dragon tattoos cute"

Somewhere in Dubai. Burj Khalifa, corporate offices.

Martinez hesitated before knocking on his boss's door. Archie's mood is scary and worse today.

He was about to knock for the second time when the door said 'Come in' Aah, he was too nervous to remember that the doors in Burj Khalifa are not like any doors; it's Automatic, programmed by the best engineers in the world.

The door opened by itself, revealing the extravagant office, decorated with white and black. The sight of the office is enough for ladies to wish for an office romance!

Martinez swallowed at the sight of the cold on the leather chair, a huge expensive table before him. Archie bought an office in Burj Khalifa, which is for his customers in Dubai.

' What will happen if I tell the boss about her?' he thought. Archie glanced at him, which was a gesture for him to 'speak'

" Boss, someone just made an appointment with you, she wants to buy the last pen"

Archie frowned "Didn't I tell you I'm not selling it?"

Martinez scratched her neck awkwardly, I forgot to notify our customers, I told the person we are not selling, but she insisted"

" She?" He raised a brow. It is rare for ladies to use that technology. "Give me her details"

" I don't think you need it, sir", he smiled and showed him his iPad. " It Miss Jenna"

Archie stared at the picture, his emotions buried under his cold face.

" The thing is... she's so desperate to get it, I've checked her profile... her account was labelled as ' wanted' by the Sen Patrick association"

Archie frowned in confusion, That's her father's enemy " She's the agent working for my dad?" Archie closed his eyes and massaged his nose bridge " Damn that man" There's no way Jenna will cross that man herself.

" Yes, boss, her identity as an agent was locked"

Archie's face became colder. His father has been in touch with her, turning a blind eye to what she did. " Find out who's helping her"

" That's the problem, like I said, it's difficult sir..." She has someone powerful backing her apart from your dad."

" Esteban and Norman, who again?" They are childhood besties, and he knew how much they cared for her, so it's normal.

" There's one more but I couldn't figure out who he is. My laptop has a deadly virus just by tracking his identity, I have to toss it in the trash."

Archie's eyes narrowed, if she's seeing another person, he will know from Esteban or Norman. "What about the old man?"

" He wants you to have a blind date with Miss Eleanor"

" Always hungry for grandchildren," he scoffed. " Why didn't he just focus on George?" His younger brother. Although he is the oldest, but the busiest, "Tell the old man to pressure my cousin, already married to a gold-digger, if he threatens him with the family company, he will give him grandchildren" That's his dream anyway, to secure Hindely's company.

"Noted, but what about..."

"What is it?" Archie asked. He knew that was not all. Martinez is the one who likes to push bad news first, and then the good news.

" She wants to see you," Martinez cleared his throat. His dream is about to come true. Seeing his boss and Lady Jenna together. Jenna kept the reason for their breakup secret, but Archie already knew. It turned out his mother and Eleanor were the masterminds.

" I think you make the situation worse too," he added. Archie glared at him. "Go prepare the jet, ask the pilot if we can fly very early tomorrow" he said. Martinez nodded and left.

Archie stared at Jenna's picture," Want to see me huh?" He raised a brow.

He smirked and dialled Esteban's number. As for her personal information as an agent, they have been investigating her since last year, especially the person handling her agent identity.

" Who is she working for ?" He asked him.

" Your Dad of course, so dumb to know about that?" He chuckled. " You're the best hacker and still couldn't track your babe?"

" Shut the fvck up," Archie growled. 'Does that mean another person is protecting her?' he thought. Because why is difficult to investigate.

" And hey, I heard she needs your pen, despite all the bad memories she had with you, she still chose to see you. It means she needs the pen badly. I will break your break your head if you dare to hurt her again"

" What is the pen for?"

Esteban frowned " You made it right? She wants it for the reason why you made it"

Archie's face became darker "You're hiding something from me"

" What else do you want to know after hurting her?"

Archie frowned" When have I ever hurt her? She misunderstood me and disappeared all of a sudden"

" That's your own fault for, and don't even try to seduce her, okay? Remember, another person is waiting for her to say yes," he teased.

Archie gritted his teeth in annoyance " I will kill you when I'm back," he hung up the line and sighed. Esteban is very good at annoying him. He reached out for the black pen and observed its features. To the world, it's just an ordinary pen. But it's a secret dangerous technology.

He's very sure the person who wants the pen is the mysterious backer.

In Paris. Private hotel room. Norman faced the floor-to-ceiling window with a serious expression, and Esteban sat on the couch behind.

" Did she know the company belonged to Archie?" Norman asked.

Esteban laughed "She did. Didn't I tell you before, so far both parties are foolish in the relationship, fate will always bring them together"

"You shouldn't have let her go there," Norman said, displeased. Esteban raised a brow, " Not me, but don't worry, He won't hurt her." he trusted Archie in that.

Norman glared at him " You knew she needed it, why don't you help her get it from Archie"

Esteban laughed, creasing the tattoo on his neck. "Mr Smith helped her, and I also think the idea is good, Jenna misunderstood him, maybe it's time they come to their senses"

Norman gritted his teeth, just when he thought he would have her, Someone threw her to Archie! He really wants to go punch Esteban and make him spit some blood, but can he do that to hurt a mafia boss?

"Adan knows about this, didn't he?"Norman asked, Esteban chuckled and checked his phone "He did, someone has not spoiled Archie's plan," he said." Adan needs the pen, that brat is up to something again"

Norman scoffed, " I knew it. What about Adian?" he asked about another crazy dude. Esteban nodded "He did"

" You should get rid of your feelings for her, so you won't lose your childhood friend"

Norman sighed, he remembered when they started their friendship. Esteban and Jenna started this journey, at the age of six. Jenna was three years old then, and Esteban used to be shy, timid, weak, and quiet.

He had beautiful green eyes, which attracted jealous bullies. He couldn't fight back or know how to, not until one day a little girl with blue eyes stood up for him and helped him chase and deal with the bullies.

Jenna might be young, but her IQ was incredibly high. She followed him home and told his parents about Esteban's situation, and she was able to convince them to change his school to her own school.

From there, Esteban and Jenna became friends, started the graceful journey. Esteban's parents grew affectionate toward little Jenna. The cowardly Esteban became brave, even more brilliant than Jenna. He became tough and relied on himself. Engaged in several street fights, the bullies are afraid to offend him.

You might be the light of the world but you will need someone to switch you on! Jenna played the role of an angel in Esteban's life.

One day, at the Guineas records awards day. Jenna was given an award for the youngest beautiful human Barbie with blue eyes, she's only four!

Norman, whose parents were never allowed to step out, attended an event for the first time. He kept staring at Jenna from the beginning of the event. He then approached her immediately after it ended. He met Esteban on the same day, and they became friends.

Esteban and Norman understood their assessments, protecting Jenna. Gradually, Norman began to influence Esteban. Esteban admired Norman, for him to be able to manage his family company at the age of seven, why can't he do it? He's just a year older than him!

Esteban made up his mind and started following Norman's steps; he preferred law but still guided Esteban on what he needed to know about the company. Esteban focused on his dream and promised to help Norman in future the way he helped him.

Esteban's story changed at the age of seven, when he began his journey with Norman, unaware that Norman had started developing feelings for Jenna.

Things became tangled for Norman when Archie joined them. Although he helped them solve many obstacles in business, but also snatched Jenna from him.

Later, Archie introduced his mysterious friend Bruce, a purple eyes! At first, they refused to believe Archie, but when they saw him, they learned about Bruce's father. A famous scientist who created purple pills for his pregnant wife, no one knows that, she later gave birth to a child with purple eyes! And Bruce is the child!! Very rare eyes.

Archie has silver eyes, Jenna has sky blue eyes, Norman has deep blue eyes, Esteban has Green eyes, and Bruce has the rarest eyes ever, Purple! The Guinness Book of Records noticed them, marking them as the rarest friends with the rarest eyes.

Norman planned to tell Jenna about his feelings on his twentieth birthday, but it's too late, Jenna already liked Archie! He makes sure it doesn't shake their friendship!

" I would have married her if I had met her first"

Esteban rolled his eyes " That's your business..."

" Shut up, you think Archie doesn't know what he's doing?" Norman laughed at Esteban's stupidity. " Leave Jenna and focus on your little fairy"

The next day. Jenna took her time to dress, when she was ready she started pacing front and back. "Hmmm, your assistant told me you don't want to sell the pen, can you...Ahh no, that won't work!" She shook her head.

" Please, I really need this pen...Ahhh, no," sighed on the couch, absent-mindedly, Kelly was also present in the living room.

'Ding'

" Oh lord," Jenna trembled. She knew what that notification was about. She picked up her phone and checked it " Hello, Miss Jenna. I want to tell you in advance that the boss is now available"

Jenna inhaled and blew out some air from her mouth. It's been eight years, why are you still nervous?

" Just go, stop acting as if you want to confess to your crush," Kelly said.

" You should get over Esteban too," Jenna laughed and stuck out her tongue.

At AH Technology. Jenna hesitated to enter after receiving the word ' come in'. She sighed nervously and finally entered.

" Wow, " she admired the office. Pretending not to care about the latter on the black leather chair.

'Get hold of yourself, Jenna.' she assured herself.

She gathered her courage and finally looked at him, which she regretted immediately!

Eight years have passed, not the same Archie she devised. He's more handsome and very mature. She swallowed, "Good Morning, Mr A-Archie," she greeted and forced a smile.

Archie stared at her in amusement. " Welcome, Miss. I heard you want to see me badly. May I help you?" He decided to play along.

'Badly?' Jenna laughed. " He said you don't want to sell the pen.. please can you sell it to me and make another one?" She finally lowered her pride and pleaded. She will deal with him after getting the pen anyway.

Archie raised a brow " May I know what you want to use it for?"

" For personal use"

Archie chuckled. " When registering for the pen, I must know what my client wants to use it for"

" That's a lie, since when did you care about that" she was annoyed. 'Enough of this game Archie, just give me the pen"

Archie stared at her deeply, making her uncomfortable. She noticed her cleavages were exposed, she flinched and quickly adjusted it.

" Why did you leave?" Archie suddenly asked her. Jenna was surprised.

" Is that even a question?" She laughed bitterly, "You should be married to your mom's best friend's daughter, you used to believe whatever she told you. Please do me a favour by selling the pen to me"

" I knew what happened wasn't your fault" he had investigated it. Someone uploaded a video of Jenna kissing a famous actor. The news was all over the internet. Esteban made sure it disappeared on every platform, but the Hindleys' family had seen it.

Archie's mother went crazy and threatened to divorce her son. When Archie came to the family, Jenna looked at him hopefully. She believed he would trust her, even if the person's features looked so much like hers, but the video was edited.

To her surprise, Archie didn't take a glance at her, he paid full attention to what Eleanor was telling him. Jenna looked at herself in shame and left Hindely's household.

He went to their matrimonial house and packed her things. She signed the divorce papers and placed them on his bed.

Since that day, Jenna disappeared from his life like she never existed. Archie was furious and asked if she was with Esteban or Norman.

They stood up for her and blamed Archie for his foolishness. Archie decided to give her time. Jenna's leaving him helped him a lot. His enemies only attacked him without involving her.

Jenna looked at Archie in confusion "It doesn't matter again, it's already the past, whether you know about the truth or not, it's useless now"

" You don't understand..."

" Archie please...."

" Let me speak!" His deep, authoritative voice suddenly echoed in the office. Startling Jenna. She looked at him in daze. She knew this dangerous voice...

" I knew my mom was up to something. I texted you before I came here. We should play on with them. I also said I will pretend I'm listening to them, do you know what happened when you left?" He frowned in frustration. He hated the fact that she suddenly gave up on him.

Jenna was stunned. She didn't check her phone, "I lost it in the taxi " She lowered her head. " Okay, how is the pen? Will you still sell it for me?"

Archie was stunned. "The pen is more important than me?"

" What do you want me to do? Your mom and mine are enemies, so I can't marry you, Archie"

Archie raised a brow " Really? Is that what you think?" He pressed his lips together and nodded. " The pen will be available tomorrow, and my assistant will collect your details." He said.

" Thanks", Jenna whispered and stood immediately, not daring to take another glance. He met Martinez's sad face at the entrance "Please wait for me outside, Miss Jenna" Jenna nodded thankfully and left.

Martinez looked at Archie's dark face and sighed. " You can't sort things out that way, she's a lady, let her go think about it", he reassured.

" Register her name, It will take a day to download her details."

Martinez nodded and left. Jenna smiled as soon as he came out, but faded when she smelled cigarettes on him. 'Archie is smoking again?'

Seeing her confused expression. " He's back to his other self, well, he's in a good mood today, he even refused to kill, just buried him alive before coming to see you"

Jenna froze. " He what?" She asked in disbelief.

Martinez laughed in amusement. " Let me tell you something Miss Jenna, he has always liked that, even before he met you. It was when you married him that he stopped"
