He walked to the tall transparent windows of the huge skyscraper. The sun rays shone brightly on his face and the female staffs in the room couldn't help but gasp.

“He is so handsome... Why is he not my boyfriend?... I would do anything just to have a night in bed with him... If he would just look at me lovingly once, I'll die happily,” they chattered endlessly.

The male staffs looked at their lovestruck colleagues and sighed in regret. “Boss has captured the hearts of all the females in the company,” they complained regretfully.

Though their voices are low as they dare not let him hear what they are saying, he still felt annoyed at how noisy they are. He finally turned around with a slightly angry look.

One of the female staffs even forgot to breathe as she stared at him. “Why is he so handsome?” He frowned, seeing the dreamy look on her face. One of her friends hurriedly hit her to get her out of her reverie.

Cause if the boss gets angry, he may sack her and even make sure she never gets a job anywhere else. “Why are you all here?,” he asked in an icy tone.

Everyone quickly brought out the files they came to submit. He checked the files hurriedly, rejecting the ones that aren't satisfying and accepting few. Finally the lady who interviewed Emery earlier. What's her name? Mhmm.... Yes, Paula. She walked forward with a file.

“Sir we gave her the job. Here is the file you requested for,” she said giving him a file. She is still wondering why boss actually picked this lady out of all the applicants. Though she acted a little bit cold when interviewing Emery, she was observing her.

She isn't as beautiful as boss former assistants. She looked ordinary. Though she is suitable for the job, there are still others better than her. So why did boss pick her?

But she doesn't dare ask him cause he's the boss.

Who dares question the boss on his decisions? “You can leave,” he dismissed them with his usual low icy tone. As soon as they all left, he sat down and opened the file.

He looked at the words boldly written on the file, EMERY TYSON. He stared at the picture attached on it. Why does she look familiar? The picture is already fading so he can't see it well but the lady in the passport looks familiar.

He tapped his finger on his hair and thought,“ Have we met before?”

Emery Tyson.

I walked into Cindy's kitchen feeling so exhausted. Someone should remind me that I should not go shopping with Cindy and the kids again. She would have emptied the whole children section if it was possible.

After taking the children to the pack, she bought lots of snacks even though I protested. But no one ever listens to my protests. I smiled bringing out a frozen chicken out of the fridge.

The least I could is to prepare dinner tonight. I owe Cindy alot. Once I start earning enough money from my new job, I'll pay back every single penny. I was just about to add spices to the chicken soup when my two little troublesome cupcakes ran in.

“Mom!!! Alex doesn't want to give me my new sneakers,” Cecilia cried rushing into the kitchen. Alex followed hugging a shoe box tightly.

“Mom don't mind this shorty. Aunt Cindy bought these for me and she's claiming it hers,” Alex said making a mocking face at her. You know the one you do when you bring out your tongue and wiggle it at someone.

“We are the same height so you are also shorty!!,” Cecilia shouted wiggling her tongue at Alex also. I stopped stirring the soup and turned to them. If I don't stop them now, I'm sure few minutes later they will almost bring the kitchen down with their screams.

I bent down to their heights and secretly smiled. Short calling someone short. The both of them are short but I dare not tell them. Looking at them glaring at each other, I said,“ Cupcakes what did I always tell you two?”

“ That we shouldn't fight with each other,” they replied in unison. “Then why are you fighting with each other now?,” I asked even though I already know what they would say. Just as I expected, they pointed at each other and said,“He started it first!” “She started it first!”

Cecilia pouted seeing they both said the same thing again like always. She rushed into my embrace and did that cute puppy face expression. “ Mom the shoe is mine. Aunt Cindy gave it to me,” she said slowly like a baby.

Alex felt annoyed and brought out the shoe to show me the designs on it,“Mom see this! These are designs of a dragon, gun, ranger, cars and many more. Mom does this shoe look like one a girl can wear?”

I looked at it and noticed he's right. This is totally a boy's sneakers. I looked at Cecilia,“Cupcake he's right. This shoe is not suitable for a princess like you.” Alex made that mean face at her again.

I hit his head gently and he whined rubbing his soft hair curls. “Don't be mean,” I told him and turned to look at Cecilia. “Mom I like the shoe,” Cecilia said and I sighed.

“Alright cupcake. I'll get you sneakers similar to this but with different designs, okay?,” I asked her and she nodded happily. Immediately, she stood up and wiggled her tongue at Alex before shaking her small bottom at him. Then she ran away with Alex chasing her closely.

I shook my head at their childish antics before I quickly checked the soup to make it's not burnt. Then I brought out my phone and searched for that similar sneakers online. As soon as I found the one designed for girls, I gasped at the price.

“I'm sorry cupcake. You'll have to wait a little longer for the sneakers,” I soliloquized after making the calculations of the bills I need to pay. I'll just get her the shoes later. She still has new ones she can manage. I then went on preparing dinner.

The faint sounds of the alarm abruptly woke me. I hurriedly stood from the bed. God I have get the children ready and also prepare for work. I quickly walked out of my room after checking the time. It's almost late in the morning.

I was very surprised to meet the children already dressed and even eating breakfast. That's when I remembered that Cindy insisted we stay over at her house last night. Gosh! Cindy is such a sweetheart. They looked up and saw me.

“Good morning mommy,” they chorused. Cindy also looked up and said,“Sleepy-head hurry up. You can't be late on your first day at work.” I was about to answer her sarcastically when she said,“ Don't worry. I'll take the kids to school.”

I swallowed my reply and blew a kiss at her before rushing back to the room to get dressed.

As the beautiful Porsche followed by a trail of similar luxurious cars drove into the school, everyone stopped to watch. A chubby but cute looking boy came out of the Porsche. Some people turned away disappointed that it's only a rich kid showing off his parents wealth.

But as soon as the door opened again and the other occupant came out. They turned back to look at the handsome man feeling stunned. Some of the parents<female> started shrieking in surprise at the sight of him. Their children looked at them feeling disappointed with the way their mothers are behaving like fangirls.

The chubby boy noticed what was going and turned to look at the man. “Uncle don't bring me to school again. I'm supposed to be the star here not you. You've stolen the attention of all the ladies from me,” he retorted shooting out his potbelly.

The man frowned while looking down at the funny stance of his nephew. Little brat. At his age, he's already thinking about ladies.
