y parents house. I tucked my hands in my pocket as I walked into the house gloriously. I got to the living room and saw my parents already seated waiting for me. They looked behind

help you?" I asked perfunctorily. His eyes took in my dress ,,, scanning me from head to toe. I squirmed uncomfortably under his gaze. Oh mercies! "My boss asked me to get you" he replied in a deep voice. I got scared that instant,,,swears he spoke so hoarsely. "And who is your boss,,,if I may ask?" I asked trying to shield my dear. "If you follow me,,,you'll know who" he said urging me to follow him,,, but the stubborn me won't follow him. "I'm sorry but I'm in a hurry,,, excuse me" I said literally running away. . . . Jayden's pov I stood impatiently waiting for Jerry (chaffeur) to come with that person. Call it waste of time,,,I don't care! I just wanna teach that person a bitter lesson. He came back after what looks like years to me. "Boss,,,," What? Why is he nervous? And where is that person? "She left in a hurry" Oh,,,so it's she? And he made her leave? "A she? And you made her leave? Are you dumb?" I growled angrily at him. He gulped down and looked down. "Calm down Jay,,,,," Nathan said but I wasn't taking any of that. I glared at Jerry and sighed rubbing my forehead. Just then a car pulled up infront of us. I looked closely and saw that it was one of my cars. "Make sure you find her and bring her to me" I ordered icily and entered the back seat of the car with Nathan. Jerry also joined us in the front seat and the car zoomed off. . . . . . . NEXT MORNING Alexa's pov The sun shone brightly into my eyes and instantly,,,I knew it was my mom's doing. "Wake up sleepy head,,, you'd be late for work" mom's voice rang in my ear. Work? Like I have a job! "Mom,,,five minutes please" I whined sleepily "Get up already,,,you've been saying that for twenty minutes now" she said ripping off the duvet from my body. "Mom!" I whined. "Go get ready and come down and have your breakfast" she said and exited the room. I stood up dejectedly and made way into the bathroom. My phone rang signifying me of a message. I rolled my eyes and entered into the bathroom. . . . I came out of the bathroom,,,fully dressed for a job hunt. I took my phone and saw an unread messages or email to be precise. I opened it and read the content of the message. My eyes popped out of its socket in surprise and I screamed out of joy. It was a f*cking email from one of the companies I applied for a job. They interviewed me online and I was picked today. This is like a dream come true! Oh God,,, I'm so happy. Mom rushed into my room like flash with a worried look. "What's wrong honey?" She asked. Oh Lord,,,I totally forgot about her. I was smiling like a lunatic but composed myself. What do I tell her? That I quit my job and now I've gotten a new job? What if I don't get the new job? Hmmm,,, I'd find something to tell her,,,but what? "Is anything the problem? Why were you screaming" she asked me again when I went silent. Oh Mom! I smiled and went to hug her soothing her back. "Don't worry mom,,,I'll tell you when I'm back" with that said,,,I picked my purse and dashed off. . . . . . . . J-B CORPORATION Authoress' pov Two exotic cars halted in the compound of the big company. One or the cats opened and a guard came out. He went to the other car and opened it. A black shining shoe came into view,,,followed by his full body. The man was wearing a black neat coat and a pair of neatly ironed trousers. His hair was neatly styles giving him the perfect view. He adjusted his coat and proceeded into the big company. When the workers saw him,,,,the once noisy place became quiet. "Good morning sir" "Good morning boss" Morning boss" Any worker he came across greeted him but being the cold boss he is,,,he kept a straight face and walked into his private elevator. . . . . "Good morning sir Jayden" A young lady greeted immediately she saw Jayden. "To my office" he said coldly and the lady nodded and followed him immediately. "Has my new P.A reported to the office?" He asked starring at the lady who was his secretary. "Didn't you send the email?"he asked with a slight frown. "I sent it,,sir" "Hmm,,,,okay,, what's my schedule for today?" "You have a board of directors meeting at 10:00am,,,,,,,," she continued reading till she was done. "Okay,,, you can go now" "Okay sir,,,excuse me"she said walking away "Celine,,,," Jayden called her back making her feel goosebumps. Damn,,, her name rolled sweetly from his mouth. "Yes sir?" She answered tucking her hair behind her ears. "Tell my P.A to report to me when she arrives" he said with his eyes on his desktop. Celine took the chance to admire his good features. His long lashes,,,neatly styled hair cute lips,,,,and a handsome yet cold face. Jayden raised his head up and saw Celine drooling over him. "Anything else?" He asked raising his brow,,,adding to his hotness. "Er,,,no,,,no sir" Celine said with her cheeks flamed up in embarrassment. Damn,,,my hot boss! She said and walked out of the office. Jayden shook his head and continued what he was doing. . . . . . . Alexa's pov I got down from the cab and payed the driver,,, forgetting to collect my change. I was so damn late,,,on my first day. I walked into the big company which had the inscription 'J-B CORPORATION' on it. I didn't have time to look around the company and admire it's beauty because I was 15 minutes late. I entered the first floor and walked to the lady behind the desk,,,guess she's the receptionist. "Hi,,,how may I help you" she said with a warm smile "Hello,,,,uhm,,,can you please show me the way to the CEO's office?"I asked with a kind smile also. "Do you have an appointment with him"she asked "Not really,,,but I'm his new PA" I replied "Okay,,, he's on the 20th floor" she answered "Thanks...." "Bella" "Oh,, thanks Bella" You're welcome..." "Alexa" I smile and walked to the elevator and pressed the 20th button. . . . . . "Good morning" I greeted the young lady I saw on the floor. "Good morning,,,,are you Miss Alexa Williams?" She asked after responding to my greetings. Wierd? She must have been waiting for me. Ooops sorry! "Uhmm,,yh" I answered "The boss wants to see you" she said and my heart skipped a beat. Boss? Aish ,,, what do I do? "Uhmm,,, okay" I said and went to the door with the tag 'CEO's OFFICE' I knocked once,,,twice and I heard a faint 'come in'. Opening the door with my heart beating loudly,,,,I entered with my head bowed. "Good morning sir" I greeted,,, with my head still bowed. "You're 20 minutes late,,, Miss Alexa" I heard the most coldest voice I've ever heard. . . Chapter 4 Alexa's pov "You're 20 minutes late" I heard the most coldest voice I've ever heard. I looked up to see a handsome young guy,,,so handsome yet cold. He was emanating an intimidating aura which got my heart palpitating very fast. "I'm sorry,,,sir" I muttered to his hearing. He was quite for some time which got me thinking if he'd fire me. "That's your desk over there,,," he said making me release the breath I didn't know I was holding. ",,,, You're to start working now,,,he have a meeting to attend at 10:00 sharp... get prepared" he continued ",,,,I want a decent work,,,no fooling around when it's working hours,,," he continued listing his rules as I listened attentively. My feet was beginning to hurt as he spoke,,,non stop. "....and finally,,,I don't want lateness to work,,,I detest it mostly!" He finally ended. Ha! I almost died out of his numerous talk. "Uhm,,,,,if I may ask,,,can I call you Sir Jayden?" I asked bitting hard on my lips at the same time praying for him not to get offended. "Whatever,,,but with respect"he rolled his eyes,,, making him look hot. "Okay,,, thank you,,, Sir Jayden" I said going to my desk. "Copy those files there and send them to my email,,, there's an I-PAD on the table,,,hope you've seen it?" I simply nodded my head but he growled. "Words!" "Yes ,, Sir,,," I quickly responded. Humph! What a cold boss! How I'm I gonna cope?! Well,,,I'll try. . . . CAMBRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL Authoress'pov Students moved up and down in the big school compound.
