My poor little phone...

AFTER A WEEK

"HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN?!" Ethan yells throwing the newspaper on the desk. Jamie flinches as she looks between the newspaper and her boss. She cocks her brows at him and walks towards the desk. She then lowers her gaze on the newspaper. As it was folded into the half when it landed on the desk, she picks it up on her hand to read it. Evan had already stood up and walked to the window. He bangs his hand harshly on the wall making his hand bruised. Jamie flinches at his sudden change of mind and she hurriedly searches for the thing that got him so tensed up.

As she goes through the headline she found the one. As she goes through it, she had eyes widen in surprise which turns into anger. The headline was

' The executive director of TBL Company which was growing globally famous had been found performing sexual services in the office during the working hours. "

"Is that the thing that happens in TBL Company?" She reads the other headline a little loud making Ethan snap his head at her. "And it was leaked by the staff that got harassed. " She continues reading. She had her mouth gaped open with the sudden news destroying the company's reputation that had been earned with great dedication and hard work.

"Where is Executive director?!" Ethan says burning with rage as he makes his way towards the director's office cabin. Just he passes through the staff who were looking away avoiding his deadly eye contact. With these weeks of working together, they have come to know what type of person their new CEO was. Not only he was dedicated and workaholic but he was a person well didactic. He valued morals and rules. He hates someone ignorant of their incompetence, as it is the most quality of a hard-working person who lives his life with pride and dignity.

His eyes bulging out and nose flaring with hot breath escaping out, hands and jaws clenched in anger. Just then Jamie's phone rings. She grabs her phone following Ethan. She had eyes wide as she recognized the caller Id.

"Sir!! The clients who arrived from Africa are calling us. " Jamie says and Ethan halts on his steps. He turns around as he gestures her to pass him the phone. She hands him her phone and he answers the call taking in a deep breath.

"Hello?" He answers clearing his throat. He loosens his tie as he listens to the person talking on the other side.

"Is this Ceo Bryne?" The person on the other call asks. "Yes," he replies shortly with his stern bossy voice and nodding his head tho the person on the other side couldn't see it.

"I just called to inform you that with the rumor going on we need to cancel our contract. I am sorry. " He felt his heart stop at this sentence. How could they back away. He was angry and hurt. He had never felt this disappointed.

"No... Sir. It's -"

"We are sorry." With that, the call ends. Ethan was even angrier with all the things going just wrong. He clenches his fist around the mobile and he raises his hand tossing the mobile on the wall. The mobile breaks down after a loud crash against the wall. Jamie, as well as the other staff observing the scene, had their eyes popped out with surprise and hands covering their mouth to prevent any noise from escaping out. They all gulp and eye their boss turning into a beast with his anger at the highest peak.

"B-Boss... M-My phone..." Jamie says still taken back by the sudden action of his. Upon hearing Jamie, he looks around to see her phone dispersed into the floor in pieces. He sighs and makes his way towards Jamie. The other staff moves away not wanting to come in his sight. Jamie gulps anticipating his next move as she stood still on her position.

He lowers down a little placing his hands on her shoulder, he meets her gaze. "I am sorry for this Jamie. I will get you a new one. " He moves back at the end. Jamie unconsciously nods her head. Ethan's eye fell on the newspaper on her hand and his anger rushed back into existence. He snatched the paper from her hand and grabbed it turning around and making his way towards the director's room.

Once he reaches the office, he slams opens the door making his way inside. The director was sitting calmly on his chair. He startles upon the sudden intruder but he widens his eyes upon seeing the CEO. He stands up on his feet and shakes his hand.

"No... It's a misunderstanding sir. Just a misunderstanding!" He says but Ethan slams the newspaper on the desk. ethan had his hand on his hips and eyes looking away trying to control his anger.

"During working hours, Does it make sense that you are going out for a sexual service? Moreover, harasseing our staffs?" He says as his hands clenches into fists.

"As an executive director, Are you not thinking of our image? About the company who had worked hard in sweats to reach here?!!!" He yells making the other shiver in fear. The executive director was an average man in his early forties. "I am sorry sir." He says with his head low in fear.

Hearing his apology it ticked him off. "Mr. Secretarty?!" He calls out for Jamie. She gulps walking closer to him. "Yes, sir?" She replies. "What's my next schedule?"

"We will have a executive meeting in the third building for the loss of the company. " She reples receiving a faint nod as he walks out of the room leaving director with his head hung low, Jamie and director's secretary who had her eyes down on her feet. Jamie sighs looking at the person before him.

"Executive director... You must reflect on this, musn't you?" Jamie says with her fake smile on her face. He still had his head hung low then he drops down on his knees. "I am done now. " He says with his hands caressing his face. She smirks as she gets an idea creeping on her mind.

"Director, Don't be upset. After the cancellation of the contract along with the sexual service article, Sir is sad. He for sure had a lot of expectation from you and you let him down." She says making the older sigh as he keeps his head low.

"To be honest, now trying to stop the name of our company from spreading with rumors is going to be difficult. He will be having a hard time. " She says walking around him.

"I know and I am sorry. I don't know why I did that. I must have been possessed. " He says groaning and whining down on the floor.

"You shouldn't forget how you are reflecting on it now. It is a must so you can live a better life from now on. How about you leave early today and take rest?" She says smirking a little but she shows her fake smile when he looks up at her. "Should I ?" He question with a small smile. She nods her head. "I will be careful from tomorrow. " He says. He stops in front of his secretary and bend down a little. "I am going now then. " He says dusting his clothes and making his way out.

Once he walks out, the girl looks at Jamie with a frown. "Excuse me, Does this mean he can keep working?" Jamie chuckles and shakes her head. "Do you think he can? And do you want him to?" She questions and the girl shake her head no. "And Sir, he never gives second chance to such. " She says walking towards the desk. She grabs the telephone and rings it to the reception.

"Take care of all of Executive director's desk and his possessions immediately. " She says once the call was picked fro the other side and she hungs up once she completes her sentence. She looks up at the girl and smile. "Work hard. See you. " She says making her way out of the office.

She walks down the hall but her eyes catch the sight of her phone being collected by the sweeper. She frowns with a sad pout. "Ugh... My poor little phone. " She says watching her phone being swept away from the floor into the dust bin.
