The Bossy Billionaire

Beneath every tough surface is a wounded soul.

I woke up to the sound of my alarm ringing. I snoozed it and sat up on my bed fully awake, not that I slept deeply before. Who would by the way??

I sighed and stood up, heading to the bathroom. Today is my last day here, the contract I signed would be annulled and I don't have where to go after today, not even enough to stay on my own.

My parents died eight years ago and I was abducted and abused by my parents' killer for five years till luck shone on me one night and I escaped.

I began working as a maid so I can fend for myself and save up for college to achieve my dreams and bring my parents death to justice.

I wore my maid's uniform and went to the next compound where my boss lives.

I opened the gate and took a look around, scrutinizing the environs.

" Hurry she is around" my colleagues hurried about, performing their duties and keeping a safe distance from me. They're all scared of me especially after I taught one of them a lesson. You won't blame me, he needed to be put in his place.

"What's this paper bag doing here?" I turned to the one nearest to me.

" I-I..... " He stuttered.

My phone rang at that moment, saving him from my tongue lash. I glared at him before answering the call.

"Hello Mr Jeff" I said into the phone

"Yes Courtney, I've come to understand your tenure would be over today. You have anywhere in mind? " He asked.
