The Devil's Sweetheart

Devin was gazing back and forth across the photo and to her name again and again in a baffled state. He couldn't visualize whether the things he was seeing were a real or his hallucination from the lack of sleep due to a certain someone. For a week-long her smile has been haunting him in dreams, he was having a hard time catching a proper sleep combined with his hectic schedule.

Leena Hayes.

He still wanted to confirm if his little kit and the person he was looking were the same. Without wasting a second, Devin opened his mobile and typed her name in a frenzy. Thousands of images popped up in the search engine.

"Leena." He was mumbling her name continuously for the nth time and without knowing a sweet smile was already plastered on his face. Even her name is as cute as her, he thought. The name has been buzzing around him for four years, but it took him a long time to finally meet her.

He looked over her wiki and started reading the information. A famous supermodel, personal trainer, businesswoman, founder of Bliss. Did she achieve all these in a span of five fucking years? It's not an easy task to achieve popularity easily. She has rarely attended any celebrity events and always maintained a low key and that explains he had not seen her despite her famous personality.

Now you have become a real stalker, Devin. This crazy woman is making me do all sorts of things I hadn't experienced in twenty-eight years of my life. He sighed and started reading again.

After scrolling all the pages, he found something intriguing on a certain page.

'Dashing and attractive couple'

'Is the famous supermodel Leena hayes in relation with her secretary Reese Allen?'

His mood dampened with all those comments. Just because she has attended some events with a woman, she was trolled by the media? She must be sad hearing all those. The urge to cut the reporter's throat for writing those offbeat comments on her was sliding out of his rails. He has to contact that foolish media and warn them for writing peculiar comments on his darling. Now that he has found her, he will make sure to protect her against all the odds.

When he looked into the photos again, he found a familiar face. Reese Allen, as in Jasper's sister? He has met her many times, but why did he not see his little kit even once. It looks like someone has deliberately hidden her. She was so close yet so far away from him.

Now that he has two priority things on his plate, he called Daniel to come over his office to discuss an urgent matter with him.

....

"I have been sitting for over two hours and I was not even informed why I have been called here," Daniel asked out of annoyance. He has lots of unfinished work and now he has asked me to come and sit here just to stare at him?

"Five more minutes." After reading about his little kit in the search engine, Devin is now busy downloading her pictures into his mobile.

"You have been telling this for an hour, Devin." For the past two hours, he was sitting like a log here while Devin is so busily engrossed in his mobile that he is not even lifting his head. He has always seen a workaholic Devin who would never waste any time on nonsense matters. He wondered what conspired him today.

"Are you done now? Daniel asked when he finally looked at him after a long stretch while Devin simply nodded his head.

"What's the important thing you want to discuss with me?" He asked.

"The model for our Korean branch." He voiced out still looking at the pictures.

"I have already found one. She is_"

"No. Let's go with Leena." He was contemplating earlier who has the nerve to go against The Wang Devin even after knowing him. Now that he realized, a devilish grin spread across his face. Only that crazy woman can have the audacity to outrightly turn him down.

"She has already declined our proposal." He was pondering over the thoughts on why Devin is going again and again over the refused one.

"So what?" He shamelessly declared. "We will contact her again."

"You would never give a second chance." Contact her again? He is definitely out of his mind today. Even though Daniel thought she is very apt for this role, WD would never go behind by the outrightly rejected ones. That girl sure has some guts to go against Wang Devin.

"This is exceptional. I have heard a lot about her and she is going to be our sole model." He deadpanned. Why is he asking so many questions today?

"But_"

"No buts. Contact her again, period!"

"All right." He hesitantly agreed. He knew once Devin has verbalized period, the matter is closed and he doesn't entertain any arguments.

Once Daniel went out, he immediately called Drew to meet him at their usual place in the evening. Now that one of his priority tasks is completed, he has to move on with his second one.

.....

Vincy, I miss you, man!" The moment Drew saw him, he went over to hug him but Devin dodged pushing him with his index finger.

"It's not even a day Drew."

"But still I miss you. Did you get the thing you were looking in that file." He was so busy with a case, he couldn't peek inside the contents.

"Yeap." He pressed.

"I have used all my powers to get that file." Luckily he has helped a case winning against land for the Serene hotel's CEO. So he could get a hold of them easily.

"As expected from a criminal lawyer." Despite Drew's playful nature, Devin knew his friend's connections as a lawyer. He can find any person at ease.

"So." He asked grabbing a drink. "Why did you call me urgently?"

"I need you to prepare a harassment letter." He said as a matter of fact.

"Are you serious. Why are you so adamant about suing." Did he really gets offended by that person? he pondered.

"I just need a fake one. I will send you the name and address, get it done quickly." He would never entertain the idea to sue his little kit. If she has declined their offer once, undoubtedly she will reject it again. She doesn't even speak normally if I go and talk to her. It is his bait to lure her into his office. He can take care of the rest later.

"You are unbelievable Vincy!" He yelled.

"I know. I am leaving" He smiled and fist-bumped him leaving the confused Drew.

"You are trapped Sweetheart. I will be there with you always from now. There is no escaping from my clutches.." He whispered with a devilish smile and walked out after accomplishing the two missions successfully.
