-POV Becca Moreau

I need to take a shower and clean up, and then look for suitable clothes for my first day of work...

(...)

I look in the mirror and see that I look pretty good for my first day at my new job...

I'm wearing a black knee-length pencil skirt, a white blouse and a black blazer on top, my hair tied up in a bun...

I take my document bag along with my cell phone and leave my room, going to the kitchen...

Furthermore, I hear my cell phone ring and see that my Uber has arrived, I run to the fridge and grab an apple...

I quickly leave, locking the door of my apartment, and get into the elevator, pressing the button to go down to the first floor...

“Late Miss Moreau,” my boss says harshly as soon as he gets out of the elevator

“I’m sorry sir, the traffic is…” I try to explain but I’m interrupted by him

“I don’t care about your excuses, miss, next time you’ll be fired, one thing I hate is being late,” he says seriously, walking to his office “Denise will introduce you to the company and explain the rules.” She says and enters his room, leaving me perplexed.

What grumpy man is this? He doesn't even look like the same person I met that day at the club, I know he has obligations in his company but is this how he treats people?

And I wasn't even late, I was punctual, I arrived at the last minute, it didn't exceed a single minute...

“Good morning, my name is Denise, Mr. Durand has always been like this and always wants things his way” she explains when she sees my shocked face “I’m going to introduce you to the company and give you all the rules, including giving you some tips on how to deal with him...” she smiles gently

“good morning, I’m Becca” I give a weak smile “Thank you.”

She started showing me the company, floor by floor, and explaining each function on each floor, everything I needed to know...

The company rules, one of them caught my attention, any romantic relationships between employees and bosses within the company are prohibited...

According to Denise, who is such a nice and kind person, it was Mr. Durand who created these rules...

I know you have to maintain respect and common sense within a big company like this, or anything, but I think it's unnecessary to invent a rule like that...

But I don't care about that, I don't want to get emotionally involved with anyone, I'm perfectly fine single...

“Okay, now you can start doing your work, I already went ahead and prepared Mr. Durand’s schedule for you, since it’s your first day,” he says handing me the tablet and I smile gratefully “Good luck.”

“Thank you very much, Denise” I thank you with a sincere smile

She smiled and went towards the elevator, I took a deep breath looking at the huge wooden door, taking the courage to go to my idiot boss...

On my first day of employment, I'm already hating my new boss...

-POV Igor Durand

“excuse me, Mr. Durand” I hear the voice of my new secretary entering my office “At 7:50 you have a meeting with the shareholders to discuss the new project, and at 9 am a video conference with the president of the company ENI” she explains slowly coherently while looking at the tablet

I can't hide my gaze as I analyze her from top to bottom, the damn skirt she wore tight to her body leaving her curves very highlighted and sexy...

Her medium breasts were marked by the blouse glued to her body, leaving me wanting to put those delicious mounds on my lips again...

Damn, I can't help but say that she is very hot and that the night we had was the best of my life, despite her being 17 years younger than me...

But she left me alone the other day and that made me feel used, my ego was hurt because she did that to me...

As soon as I arrived at the company and went up to my work floor, I didn't find the new secretary, just Denise who I asked to come and explain everything to the new employee who will take her position...

I heard the elevator ding and I turned to see Miss Moreau getting out of it, I scolded her for being late and realized that she was shocked by my tone of authority...

I always like employees to arrive before me, and not after I'm at the company, even if I arrive late...

“And these documents are for you to sign” She approaches my table leaving the folder there and returns with her serious posture “Do you want anything else sir?”

“Where’s my coffee? The first thing you do when you enter my office is brought my coffee along with your diary” I say rudely, looking at her

“but...” she takes a deep breath before answering me “Sorry sir, I'll bring your coffee, can I leave?”

“What are you waiting for, miss? Try to get my coffee soon” I say seriously

She quickly leaves the room, closing the door, I look at the folder on the table that she brought and see that they are the documents that I need to sign to send to the financial sector...

Next month I have to close a deal with a very famous Irish businessman that will make me a lot of money...

And this could make me the most famous businessman in the world, including raising billions of dollars from this deal...

I hear a knock on the door and I allow entry, I see Miss Moreau with my espresso that I always drink...

“Here’s your coffee, sir” She puts it on top without looking at me and walks away” Excuse me “ask before leaving the room”

I massage my temple, imagining that this girl might just be trying to get me off, how could she leave without asking my permission?

I take the coffee she brought and take a deep breath, I always like to drink coffee early before starting work, it's almost an addiction...

I bring the cup to my lips and take a sip, but something catches my attention, the coffee is different, tastier, neither bitter nor sweet...

Today the girl who works in the kitchen decided to change the way she makes coffee, that's all she can do, I'm not going to complain because the coffee is perfect...

“Man, your new secretary is pretty,” my best friend says walking into my office and sitting in front of me “damn, she looks young...”

“I know, idiot, but she’s 23 years old,” I say coldly, shuffling the papers in front of me

“What animal bit you today, Igor?” he asks sarcastically.

“None, I’m normal, Oliver,” I say seriously, clutching the pen in my hand

“Ah, of course, Igor Durand is always normal” he mocks, looking at me

“what do you want Oliver? Who came to my room” I ask impatiently

“I just came to ask you out tonight, but I can see that it’s not going to happen,” he says rolling his eyes, and leaves my room

I take a deep breath and turn my attention to the papers in front of me, I have to sign all these documents today...

I hear my cell phone ring with a notification and I take the device out of my pocket, I see a message from my daughter...
