chapter 5

   JOSIE'S P.O.V

   

  It seems the rumors going around are not entirely true.

   

  Mr. Evans is definitely narcissistic but he is quite cool. I knew I was out of place with my request earlier, basically telling the boss when and where I can work.

   

  I thought he would have kicked me out of his company and probably ruined my chance of getting a decent job in this City.

   

  Instead, he offered to carry me home.

   

  They said he is a ruthless businessman and he doesn’t interact with his employees other than the Executives. His Intern Assistants are no exception, they are not allowed to interact with him unless asked to speak.

   

  They have to do everything perfectly and if they cannot provide the service he needs, then he fires them. I heard none made it to three weeks.

   

  I guess I would just have to do my job and try to have as little as possible interactions with him. Since he personally selected me to be his Intern Assistant, there is no point in backing out. If only I had started when I should have two weeks ago.

   

  I knew something was definitely off when they sent me directly to the CEO’s office for an interview.

   

  I mean, he is a CEO of a company with hundreds of staff. No CEO has that time to spare to do something as simple as an interview. They have Human Resources for that.

   

  I stalked into my room and closed the door. I went to my closet and threw my heels and my handbag in it after removing my phone.

   

  I had long removed the heels from my feet after I bought a flat sandal close to the company.

   

  I removed all my clothes and went straight for my bathroom. I really need a warm bath to cool my ankles. I had already made a note to myself; I will never let my fashionista mother bribe me into wearing these killers again.

   

  I set myself in the bath after filling it up with warm water and my vanilla scented oil.

   

  I relaxed my body in the water and I felt my muscles relaxing. Oh my, this is heaven.

   

  I am happy my parents are at work so they won’t get to bombard me with questions until after I am relaxed.

   

  My parents owns a fast food diner in town. We are not rich but they can afford to hold the family together and provide a stable future for me.

   

  I grabbed my phone and selected my souls’ playlist so I can make use of my bathroom’s voice while I am at it. I am sure we are all talented singers in the bathroom. There is just something about the bathroom that will have you hitting the right notes.

  CHRISTIAN’S P.O.V

   

  It is time to get off work and I am still confused by what transpired earlier.

   

  No female and I meant none had ever rejected me before. Usually, I would be the one ignoring and avoiding them.

   

  I found myself indulging her rude demands just because I found her reactions to adorable. She is feisty and untamed but the greatest part is that she does not have any lust in her eyes throughout the interview. Or maybe she is just pretending.

   

  I offered to drop her home earlier and she straight up refuses. I am worried and wanted to know if she got home safe on that swollen ankle but I don’t want to be pushy in case she is only pretending.

   

  I must admit that I am attracted to this shorty, but with the thought that she might be pretending pushed me back to reality.

   

  I won’t let one woman with an innocent face change my views on how materialistic women are.

   

  She seems a bit unruly so I will definitely not go easy on her. I will try to keep her around for the three months but on one condition, if she doesn’t try dropping them panties to seduce me.

   

  I am tired of all these Interns throwing themselves at me. Women are too easy these days.

   

  I had hardly seen Roger today so I can vent my problems to him.

   

  I closed down my computer and put away all the important and confidential documents scattered all over my desk. I packed my briefcase and headed right over to Roger’s office.

   

  I smirked thinking how happy he must be to get a break from his annoying boss and bestfriend, but I will not give him the satisfaction of not seeing this handsome face of mine.

   

  I barged in his office and dropped myself on his couch. He did not even glance at me, so I decided to talk first.

   

  “Bro, don’t you miss your favorite person in the world?” My favorite person to annoy, well not anymore with Josephine working for me.

   

  He did not respond. It is time to get off work but he is still buried in cases.

   

  “Roger, your boss is talking to you.” I said sternly, earning a roll eyes but at least I got his attention.

   

  “Christian, oh Christian, what can a mere servant like me do for you today?” he retorted sarcastically.

   

  I laughed and asked since I am sure he is listening now, “Aren’t you happy for me?”

   

  He frowned at my question, “I am always happy for you but what have you done recently for me to be happy for you all over again?”

   

  I pretended as if I was thinking really hard before I continued, “Well for starters, I went an entire day without having an Intern Assistant.”

   

  “What the hell? Christian, you mean to tell me that you had one job to do in this interview and it is to hire the intern and you couldn’t do that? I knew it was a mistake for you to do the interview without me. Next time I will ensure if I can’t do the interview for the Intern then I will let HR handle it.” He began to rant without even listening.

   

  It was my time to roll my eyes at him, “Can you shut up for once and let me talk?”

   

  He snickered then gestured for me to go on.

   

  “She got the job but she will start tomorrow.” By now I was beaming from ear to ear without realizing.

   

  Roger looked at me like I had grown another head, “So why are you laughing like an idiot because you hired someone?”

   

  I did not respond. I can’t wait to give my shorty trouble.
