Chapter 6

Chapter 6

We remained that way for some seconds as he bends towards me like he wishes to kiss me, I closed my eyes and I felt his hands on my hair.

"You got dirt on your hair." He Said leaving the office while I had a deep breath.

What was I thinking? We did it that night doesn't mean he will kiss me right? He's my boss and I should act like I don't know him just like what he is doing right now.

I quickly rushed out to meet with him when I saw him scolding one of the workers. I pitied the person so much, mostly as he fired instantly without a pity.

I entered his car with him as we zoomed off then he started asking more questions

"Can I know my next schedule after this?"

"Yes sir, immediately after this meeting, you have a partnership meeting by 10 am."

"What next after that?" He asked.

"You will be signing the important documents by noon and your lunch by 2 pm."

"Very well then." He said taking out his tab and ignoring a human sitting beside him.

I felt stomach hotness, I haven't eaten last night and right now, oh damn, what will I do now I am hungry?

I hate him but have no option other than to cope. I can't lose this job so if bearing hunger is part of it, so be it.

When we arrived at the company, we will be having the meeting asap, he was highly welcomed in.

"Take the files from him and stop walking slowly unless you wish to lose your job." He said harshly.

I maintained a fake smile while nodding my head but inwardly I was beating him up.

My stomach hurts and I am just trying my very best to ignore the pain and walk. He has no heart at all. I guess the guy I had a nightstand with is different from this arrogant boss of mine.

I took the files and hastened up to meet him up at the meeting hall.

Everyone clapped when his name was mentioned to brief everyone on the new project for the meeting. I was feeling myself because I know I did a great job while working on the documents earlier.

"Meet Dorothy, my new secretary, she will be enlightening us all, she worked on everything overnight." He said with an evil smirk.

What? I don't think I heard him well.

Some of the members said," Wow, he always employs hardworking people."

I faked a smile and whispered silently to him, "Sir are you referring to me or?..." Before I could finish my words, he shut me up.

"Are you so dumb? I don't have to repeat myself, you handle a document, it should be easy to summarise what you did to everyone, do not make me regret employing you." He said with no smile on his face.

I am not prepared at all, he should have told me before now, yes I did the work but come on, I didn't even get enough sleep to relax my brain, I didn't even eat any meal to get my brain charged.

I can do this, this job is important to me.

I stood up on my feet and walked to where the projector for display was in the middle, all eyes were on me, I couldn't breathe for some seconds.

"My name is Dorothy Caleb, the secretary to Mr Oliver. In year 20......." I stuttered.

I didn't even know what else to say, seeing my boss, fear gripped me and I tried to remember.

"In the year 2010, it was recorded that so many lives were lost because of the carbon and chemicals that got exposed...."

Finally, it's a wrap, they all clapped except for him, it's a sign, I didn't do well at all and I am so dead.

We entered the car and he said, "Thanks for presenting a simple task as a quack, did you read the books given to you at all on how to prepare in cases like this?" He asked rudely.

"Sir I only just resumed work today, with time I will be able to blend in." I tried to reason with him.

"Is that a reason to flop that way? How did you even finish college by the way? Make no mistake next time." He concluded.

I bite my lips in anger, I feel like hitting him right now.

I held my stomach this time around, unable to control the pains, I am damn hungry.

Oliver's POV

I am still trying to observe so well, yes she merits the job in my company but is she the beauty goddess I had the night with and took her virginity?

If yes, this is a good sign because I keep having this feeling to keep her close to me all the time.

But if yes again, it's bad because she will want to form the boss here knowing I am the soft one, and I paid her off already, so I just need to be professional, act as usual to the workers and avoid any kind of feelings.

Maybe they just look alike but each time I see her, I think of those lips I kissed that night. I am going insane. I am Oliver and very handsome. No time for females, girls will keep on wishing to have me like her.

Seems she is pretending not to know me, it's best for us all, I do the same but why is she holding her stomach, what is wrong?

Will my status as CEO drop If I should ask her what's wrong with her stomach?

Well, she is my secretary also meaning she is part of my responsibility.

"Dorothy, why are you acting so sluggish and holding your stomach?" I said without smiling so she knows I am showing care.

"I am the sorry boss, my stomach hurts,it just happens whenever I miss morning breakfast." She avoided my scary eyes.

"What? And you didn't mention anything on our way to the first meeting?" I yelled without making sense and I kept asking myself, I don't care why am I yelling at her?

I can't let her know I care, I need to think of something to cover up the reason I yelled.

To be continued.
