“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

‘‘Chloe and I need to have a talk…’’ I said, turning my back on the woman, but she stopped me again by shouting at me and I furrowed my brows as I turned to face her. ‘‘What?’’


‘‘I said, no!’’ she shouted before clearing her voice. ‘‘I…I'm sorry... but we need to go to the airport in time. We have a plane to catch…’’


‘‘To her hometown, New Jersey…’’


After taking a long, deep breath, I ran my fingers through my hair before continuing. ‘‘She lied to me… She said she’s moving to her boyfriend’s house…’’


‘‘I know…’’ she shrugged her shoulders. ‘‘You can't hold that against her. You scare her quite a bit. She suffered a traumatic experience as a result of you repeatedly cheating on her and breaching her trust. And I think… you’re part of her past that she wants to forget…’’


‘‘I never betrayed her…’’ I uttered those words with clenched teeth. ‘‘And I never cheated on her!’’
