"What did you think?" He asked sounding irritated With tears flowing down my eyes I stammered "I...I..I thought you-" cutting me short he smirked then said "You thought I loved you. Did you expect me to love you?" I gently squeezed his hands then smiled sadly "Don't do this please.. I-" "I don't have time for all this" he said then left
Tess p.o.v
I woke up by the continuous buzzing of my alarm, stretching my hands I turned it off and continued my sleep.
" Urghhh leaving me alone" i said sleepy but my phone continued buzzing. Checking the phone I saw 38missed calls from my bestie and 4 snoozed alarms. "8:15!!! Oh my God my interview!!!" I rushed to the bathroom and took a quickest shower ever, dressed up then rushed out. I immediately hailed a taxi and by the time I got to 'Quins & co' it was already 9:30. 'oh God please help me'. Rushing to where the interview was held I was already too catch up
"Sir I'm really sorry am late I was held by traffic"
"Sorry ma'am the interview is over you can come back next year" the bald man said trying to l
" No no sir I'm really sorry, please I need this Job please" I said almost crying.
He sighed then said " alright come with me"
After the interview I went straight home thanking my lucky stars that I was interviewed and hopping I got the job.
ONE WEEK
"Is it out yet?" My best friend Jenna asked
"I dunno am scared.. I don't think they'd give me cause I was latee"
" No one told you to be a lazy-" I pinched her before she could finish. Taking my laptop I opened my email and saw I had one new message from Quin's & co, opening it I read it and squealed loudly " I got the jobbbbbb" Jenna took the laptop and read the mail "oh my gosh Tess am so happy for you!" She said then hugged me "But Tess you're working as Alex Quin secretary"
" Yea so?" I asked still smiling
" Don't tell me you don't know anything about your boss?"
" I do know that he's the youngest guy to reach the top at the age of 15, making him the youngest billionaires in the entire world, cruel, doesn't take no for an answer, never give his enemies strike blah blah blah"
" Yea apart from all that he is a woman hater. He doesn't let women get close to him at all even and those that manage to get close to him all got their legs cut off"
I gaspppp
" Are you just trying to make me scared?"
" No! I'm really serious"
" Well I don't believe you cause if he didn't want women close to him then why was I hired hmmm"
" That's the thing "
"Well whatever I got the job and am starting on Monday I gotta go shopping "
MEANWHILE
" I'm expecting a new male secretary on Monday morning "
" S.. sir I... I.."
" I don't have time for all this stammering"
"I.. I couldn't get you a male secretary"
"Why is that?"
"They weren't up to expectations so I had to get a female"
He paused what he was doing for the first time and looked at him coldly
"Leave my office" he said coldly making the bald man leave in fright
