Chapter 5

MY BOSS AND I

He is cold but I'm humorous

Jacinta's Pov

My head hurts alot. I've just opened my eyes and I'm in this strange room, on a Sofa.

I decide to sit up and I come into contact with this cute face.

No it's not cute. It's arrogant! It's that rich man.

How did I get here? I push myself to the end of the Sofa as i recall those stupid bodyguards getting me into the elevator.

I can't recall anything else.

The arrogant man is looking at me in a strange manner, as if he has an alien or something.

"Do I have poop on my face? Why are you staring like that?" I ask and he moves back.

"It's good that you ain't dead. I was making sure you are alive. Which person faints in an elevator?" He says as he moves towards a huge elegant desk and sits on an elegant chair.

"I'm not dead and I can't die young. Your bodyguards just tried to kill me! I don't like elevators" I say as I try to stand up and then my baggy trouser almost falls and I pull it up.

No one else is in the office, just me and him.

"I don't care about that. Now, I want you to pay my $2297.49 for my side mirrors and $1500.50 for paying up the doctor who checked you. Also, for sleeping on my Sofa, I charge $4600.20. That Sofa is very expensive and no one else uses it apart from me and my special guests. So, pay for it and take it, so that I can buy a new one" he says and his words just so arrogant as he is.

He does not even look like what he is saying.

"Thats alot of money! Are you crazy? All that money? I will only pay for your side mirrors. As for the doctor, you almost killed me so it was your duty to pay for it and your Sofa, I never asked you to lay me here. Infact I don't know how I got here!" I yell and he stands from his chair and he moves towards me as I quickly sit back on the Sofa.

"Should I call the Police?" He asks and this scares me like hell.

Why the Police? I've been to jail twice already. Not now!

Damian's Pov

I think mentioning the Police is the right choice.

She looks tensed and I have to play on.

I pick up my phone and pretend to dial the Police number.

"Hey hey no police! I will pay up your money" she says and I place my Phone down.

I stretch my hand towards her, a sign for her to give my money but she holds it and shakes it.

"What are you doing you dirty girl!" I yell coz this is disgusting.

"I thought you warned a handshake to show the agreement" she says as I pick my handkerchief and wipe off my hand.

"Pay up my money and leave!" I yell and she gets scared.

"Okay, I'll go get your money and come back" she says and makes an attempt to stand but I push her back on the Sofa.

She wants to fool me again.

"You think you can fool me again? Give me my money and leave, otherwise you ain't leaving" I say and move to lock my door from inside.

"But I don't have money right now!" She says and her eyes sparkle with honesty but she has to pay.

"Then why did you come to my company if not to pay my money?" I ask coz I think that was the reason she came to my company.

"I came here to meet Justin who said he had a job for me. I was going to pay your money after I get paid from the job" she explains as she sits on the Sofa.

"So, you are jobless!? How am I supposed to get my money?" I ask and now I'm getting angry.

I don't like this at all.

"Just let me meet Justin for the Job, then I will pay up on month end" she says and stands up to move but I block her way.

"Justin works for me. To get a job here, you have to meet me first!" I say proudly and she rolls her eyes.

How dare she?

"Well then, give me the Job. You'll cut off half of my salary every month and give me the half for my needs" she says.

She is not a dumbass after all but does she even qualify? She is a drop out just as Dominic said.

"Get me your work documents for a check" I say just to see if she will try and forge documents.

..................................................................

Jacinta's Pov

Should I tell him that I'm a drop out?

Will he give me a job after knowing that?

The truth is always the best anyway. I hate lies.

"I dropped out of school at secondary level 2. I don't have working documents but I'm a fast learner. I can do cleaning jobs and get tea for all your staffs" I say and I think it got me into trouble since he is giving a weird look.

"If you can't get me the Job it's okay. I'll just have to look for it elsewhere. I'll take my leave" I say and make a move.

"You are hired!" He says and it scares me more than it gives me joy of getting hired.

"You for real?" I have to ask, to be sure.

"We'll sign a contract tomorrow when you resume for work. You will just work in my office, clean it, arrange it, get my meals on time and run errands for me. You will be my personal assistant"

What? Did he just say that? Personal assistant?

Should I get scared or should I be happy?

"O...o...okay" I say not believing what i just heard.

"Your work will start tomorrow at exactly 7am. Make sure to put on some reasonable and official clothes. My PA shouldn't look like that" he says and is pointing towards my baggy clothes.

If that other arrogant man had not poured mud on me, I wouldn't have to look like this.

I quickly leave the office before he changes his mind.

I see the elevator on the side and ignore it.

I've reached the first floor, and I now realise that his office is on the 20th floor.

My legs are weak as fuck.

I still gain some energy and walk out of the company where I find the arrogant bodyguards standing next to a car.

Wait, it's the car that poured mud on me.

Does this mean that it was this arrogant man that poured mud on me!

............................................................................

Justin's Pov

I just saw someone like Jacinta walking out of the building.

I'm sure it was her because of the baggy clothes.

I decide to go for her.

She looks worn out and she dint use the elevator.

I saw her coming from the staircase direction.

Did my cousin ask her not to use the elevator?

He is so heartless! That's why I hate him so much!

If not for my mission, I wouldn't be working here as his manager.
