“Please be my date on Saturday night’s party…” Mr. Easton Gonzalez said after submitting the report I had written earlier. The yellow folder he was handing me back hung in the air as I stared at him in shock.
"Excuse me?" I shrieked, my gaze fixed on his. "I'm not going on a date with you!" I exclaimed, glaring at my boss.
“Don’t worry Miss Bell, it’s a fake date…” my boss informed me and I felt like I was splashed with cold water on the face.
Easton Gonzalez, the CEO of Gonzalez Steel Manufacturing and Industries asked his personal assistant Chloe Bell to be his fake date on their company’s Silver Anniversary to annoy and upset his ex-wife who cheated on him with his best friend. He chose Chloe out of all the girls around him because he knew Chloe wasn’t like the other girls who were crazy about him.

Boss, I'm Just Your Fake Date

The moment we walked into the premises, a gentleman who was dressed in a suit welcomed us. ‘‘Welcome to Volkov Building’s branch office…’’ he greeted us, and Easton gladly accepted the handshake that he offered him. ‘‘I’m Luke, Mr. Volkov’s secretary. We are very delighted to have you here, Mr. Gonzalez. They’re waiting for you in the conference room...’’


‘‘Good day, Luke…’’ Easton greeted him back. ‘‘Thank you for your warm welcome. This is Chloe Bell, my personal assistant…’’


I was hoping that we would exchange handshakes as well, but to my disappointment, all he did was look at me from head to toe before turning around and walking away. After shrugging my shoulders, I felt Easton's hand on my waist, gently stroking it as if to reassure me that everything was going to be well.


I gave him a comforting grin as I glanced up at him and reassured him that I’m fine. But the truth is, I’m not…
