She Has The Job

Paige stepped out of the elevator and head towards the boss's office.

"Stay right here" Betsy said and head into the office. Paige looked round, admiring every design and structure. She saw the secretary's office was right opposite the boss's office. She was going to be his personal secretary.

"I hope I get this job" she prayed, holding her CV tight to her chest.

Betsy stepped out of the office and signalled her to come in.

Her heart started beating fast as she walked into the office.

Paige saw him staring outside the company.

"Leave us" Nate said.

"Yes sir" Betsy said and walked out of the office. She closed the door as she left. Paige hoped that she gets the job.

"Hi, I'm Paige and..."

Paige stopped talking when he turned to stare at her.

"Hi Paige" Nate greeted. Paige's CV fell from her hand in surprise. She shot her eyes and mouth wide open and almost staggered.

"Y..you?!" She yelled.

"Yeah, it's me Paige. It's been a long time" he said, walking to his table. There was a bottle of whiskey on his side table which he grabbed and poured into a glass cup.

"You want some?" He asked her.

"I.. I shouldn't be here" she hurriedly picked up her CV with her shaky hands. She turned to leave but Nate was quick to catch her. He swiftly grabbed her hand and pulled her back.

"Relax, I'm not going to force myself on you. I'm... I'm married already" he said, smiling at her.

"Oh yeah..." Paige smirked.

"Please, sit down" he said and walked to his chair. He sat down comfortably and placed his glass of whiskey on the table.

Paige sat down also and placed her CV on the table, expecting him to check it but he didn't.

"You can resume tomorrow. I hope you know your job" he said, staring at his laptop. Paige couldn't breath for some seconds. Just like that, she was finally his secretary.

"I don't understand. You didn't even check if I'm fit for the job or not"

"I know you are. Just resume tomorrow. Meet Betsy, she'll explain what you are to do"

"Thank you" she grabbed her CV and sprung up.

"9am!" He yelled. She furrowed her eyebrows, giving him a question look.

"Huh?" She asked.

"Don't be late" he added. That was when she finally understood. That was the time she's to be at the office.

"Yes sir" she replied and walked out of the office.

Nate bit his lower lips and smiled.

"I can finally get to see her face everyday. I should tell Trisha the good news" he murmured and grabbed his phone.

.

Betsy leaned on the wall, waiting for Paige outside Nate's office.

On seeing her, she walked to Paige.

"So... Did you get the job?" She asked.

"Why do you ask?" Paige asked her.

"I need to know. I'm his assistant"

She rolled her eyes and shoved her hair to the back of her ear.

"Yes, I got the job" she said. That was not the answer she was expecting. She didn't want Paige to get the job. Now, she was the humiliated one.

"Congratulations" she said and turned to leave.

"Hold on, I'm going to be his secretary from tomorrow. He told me to ask you for the necessary things"

Betsy rolled her eyes and walked into the secretary office. Paige followed behind.

"This is going to be your office. Whenever he needs you, he'll call you. Be early as 9am. If there are business meeting or functions to attend, you'll be the one to go with him. So get ready to learn how to dress sassy. And yes, cooperate wears only no jeans and shirt. Got that?" Betsy said and walked away. Paige had always wanted an office of her own. She has finally gotten one. A smile crept on her face as she left. The office was empty. It was going to be filled up tomorrow. She started thinking about Nate.

"Why did he give me the job even without checking if I'm able or not? I hope he's not up to anything" she thought as she left the company.

Quinn was frustrated. None of the girls she had interviewed today suited her taste. The man she put in charge was there with her in the room. She was silent for some minutes. He just stood, staring at her.

"What should we..."

"Don't utter any word Mr Sean. You said you know a lot of capable girls, look at them. They look like bunch of street things, look. I'll send your remaining money to you right now. I'll do the job myself. I'll find someone who can be my baby mama" she said, transferring the money to him. Mr Sean frowned.

"You wasted my time, making me spend the whole day here. Now, you are insulting the girls I brought. If you could find someone yourself shy don't you go ahead. Better still, carry the godd@mn child instead. You have no idea about baby mamas" he said. She stared away from her phone and glared at him.

"How dare you speak to me that way?"

"What are you going to do? Get me arrested because you are rich or lie that I abused you. You can't trick anyone, there are cameras here and they could tell that I didn't even touch you. Tsk!" He flicked his tongue and left.

"That arrogant man. He'll pay!" She tightened her grip on her phone and stormed out of the hotel room. Hurriedly, she entered into the car and zoomed off, heading back home.

.

Paige excitedly walked back home. She would smile for some minutes and quickly let it fade away. She was with some people, waiting for the red light so that she could cross to the other side. That was when her phone rang. She answered it and placed her phone on her ear.

"Hello"

"Hey, it's Zane"

"How did you get my number?" She smiled. The lights suddenly turned red and the cars stopped.

.

"F*ck! That godd@mn light" Quinn angrily hit the steering and placed her hand on her forehead. She rolled her eyes at the same time and she sighted someone walking along the zebra crossing. Her gaze was fixed on her face and also watching how she moved.

"Is that Paige?" She murmured.
