Job offer

Aron POV

It's enough; she is crossing her limit now. Why is she ignoring me? When I realized Sara was hanging out with Jerry, I lost all concentration on my work. To separate them, I have to get there. Why did Jerry come into my life? I detest her. Now that she's here, my life is toxic.

"Please call off all of my meetings, Selena. Now I have to head home." I dialed my assistant's number and informed her about my angry mood.

I have to bring Sara to this office soon. I won't be able to concentrate on my work until then. I became more and more envious of their relationship. I don't understand why Jerry fell in love with Sara, especially when there are so many women in our world who are interested in pursuing female relationships.

I didn't realize I couldn't share Sara with anyone until Jerry grew closer to her. She belongs only to me. If she ever tried to glance at another man or woman, I would kill them. Anger, I clenched my fist and grabbed my car keys and coat from my chair.

Today, I will ask Sara to join me in the office, no matter what Jerry thinks of me. I won't let fear get the better of me this time. I am ready to face the consequences of confessing my love to Sara. I don't care now if Jerry will reveal my secrets to the world or Sara. I can overcome any challenge with Sara by my side.

It's getting harder for me to picture her with someone else, so I sped up my car. I've broken numerous traffic signals in a hurry, but at this moment, I don't care about anything else. Sara is the only one whose judgment matters to me. Mr. Clinton has already caused me mental distress. I won't feel relieved until Sara confirms that my decision was correct.

"I need to talk to you, Sara." After opening the main entrance, I went straight to her room.

"Why did you come back so early these days, Aron?" Sara and Jerry were sitting on Sara's bed.

"Jerry, please leave us alone for a few minutes. I must speak with Sara." I have no desire to speak with Jerry. Her presence made me feel sick, so I asked her to leave us alone. I've never spoken to her with such harshness, but today, all of my worries vanished as my dread of losing Sara overwhelmed me.

"Is everything okay, Aron?" She inquired, appearing surprised.

"Jerry, please leave us alone." I motioned for her to get out of Sara's room.

"Mr. Finge, she won't go anywhere, so talk to me about anything you want to say in front of her." She held Jerry's hand and forced her to sit on the bed. The sight of her caring for Jerry made my blood boil. How could she like Jerry more than me?

"Okay, I don't mind if you want to include her in every aspect of our lives. Sara, you're going to work with me in my office tomorrow as an assistant."

"What?" She gave me an incredulous expression. Jerry was also astounded by my decision.

"No, Aron; she cannot join your office." Jerry expressed her disapproval right away.

"I am sorry, Mr. Finge, but I am unable to join your office." Sara also declined my offer.

What the fuck is this? She declined my job offer, even though she had expressed a desire to work with me as my assistant in the morning. What exactly is her problem? What changed in a single day is that she now doesn't want to join my company.

"Can you tell me the reason?" I raised my brow at her.

"Because I have too much on my plate, I'm unable to visit your office. And what will you do with a housemaid in your office?" She picked the worst possible time to get her revenge on me. This is not the right time for her to express her grudges to me. I want her to join me in my office.

"Yes, what she will do it in your office." Jerry asked me the same questions. Why does she care so much about her life? Jerry's constant interruption of me annoys me so much.

"Sara isn't my housekeeper, Jerry. She is my friend, and I apologize for lying to you about her out of concern for your feelings." I'm not sure what happened to my tongue today, but I lost self-control and told Jerry the truth.

"What? You're not the housemaid here." She gave Sara a startled glance.

"Why did you lie to me, Sara?" Jerry should be complaining to me, but I don't understand why she is staring at Sara with a complaint-filled gaze instead of expressing her dissatisfaction.

"I am sorry, Jerry. I agreed to lie to you because I didn't want to hurt you." Sara's tone expressed her remorse for deceiving Jerry in an obvious way.

"You betrayed my trust, Sara." Jerry seemed to be in deep pain.

Thank God, I've managed to establish a boundary between them at last. Jerry will be leaving my house, and Sara will undoubtedly join me in my office since I unintentionally damaged their friendship. I exhaled a breath of relief, realizing that everything in my life was aligning perfectly.

"I am sorry, Jerry, but I don't want to tell you lies." I tried to act like I felt sorry for her.

"I never felt an emotional connection with you, so I don't have any complaints, but I never thought Sara would betray my confidence." Tears clouded Jerry's eyes.

My mind wants to dance in joy when I see them separate from each other.

"Jerry, please give me a chance to explain myself." Holding onto her hand, Sara gazed at her imploringly.

"No, Sara—you wounded me." Jerry sprung from the bed and headed for her room.

"Madam, please listen to me." She rose from her bed to follow Jerry, but I held her hand to halt her progress.

"Aron, what do you want? You wanted me to lie to her at first, so why did you tell her the truth after I consented to lie to her?" Her eyes were glaring at me.

"Sara, I don't want to lose you at any cost." I couldn't contain my joy upon witnessing their separation as I tightly hugged her.

"Aron, leave me; you are suffocating me." She tried to free me from my embrace.

"No, I will not leave you until you agree to join me in my office." I gave her a firmer hug and relished her feminine scent.

"I don't want to work with you now." With her slippers, she kicked me in the feet, causing me to lose my grip.

As soon as she sensed my release from her body, she bolted from the room.
