Loving A Heartless

Chapter 3

NICOLA SANTIAGO

For the last few months I been working at the Montereal Corporation, my boss did nothing but insult and scold me, he always humiliated me in front of many people even though I was not doing anything wrong.

I was only a few minutes late and he's immediately got angry and embarrassed me outside the office.

So what I do is I get in early, like now I’m here and almost no one people is there yet.

I did my unfinished work right away because every day he piled me up with a lot of work so I had to be prepared.

Later, Mr. Montereal arrived.

I stood up and bowed slightly to greet him a good morning.

"Good morning Mr. Montereal" I said politely but he just walk like he didn't seemed to hear anything he didn't evsn look at my seat and just walked straight until he could enter his office.

In the five months I've been working here, I've been holding back too much with him.

when I really have an for my mothe roperation, i will leave here and find another job, I don't care if that the salary is low as long as I am treated correctly and not humiliated and insulted every day.

I stopped thinking when the door suddenly opened and i saw the angry face of Mr. Montereal.

I was immediately nervous because I knew he would scold me again.

"Ms. Sanchez, come to my office now!" He shouted so I got up immediately and entered his office

Trembling I turned the doorknob.

I saw him sitting in his swivel chair and he was in front of his computer, doing something.

"W-Why Mr. Montereal?" I nervously asked

"There are so many mistake in what you did, those are wrong! You're so stupid!" He said angrily

I immediately picked up those papers and was about to leave when he spoke again.

"I'm still not done to you Ms. Sanchez! Don't turn your back on me when I'm still talking to you, is that how your mother raised you ?!" my head immediately heated up because of what he said.

So I immediately confronted him.

This is the really hate the most, insult me until you can but don't my mother, not her..

"With all due respect sir, please don't include my mother, I have let go of the things you insult me ​​so please don't my mother who is silent, and for your information my mother raised me well." Even though I was furious I still managed to say it politely.

I saw him smirked at me and I was surprised.

This was the first time I saw him smirked, he was even more handsome.

What the heck! What is it I'm thinking.

"Hmm, so you're answering now huh?" He played with the pen while still smirking at me.

"I won't hesitate to answer you especially when you include my mother." I answered with a clenched fist.

"Why are you defending that slut?" He said softly but that didn't escape my hearing.

"Pardon sir? Did you call my mother a slut?" I asked in a slightly raised voice.

His expression changed, he no longer smirking and he looked at me coldly.

"No. Did you raised your voice on me, woman?! You have no rights to raised your voice on me." He said angrily to me so I was suddenly nervous.

"N-No Sir .. I'm sorry I-I didn't mean to .. I'm going, sir.." I said trembling and bowed and left.

I put the papers in first in my table and I quickly went to the restroom.

I washed and looked dazed in the mirror.

My heart still doesn't stop beating fast.

This is the first time I answered him, I hope he wont fire me.

I also didn't spend much time in the bathroom, I went out immediately and did what he asked me to do but before that I first checked those papers he returned to me because he said there were a mistakes.

But when I read them one by one there was nothing wrong with them so I frowned because of that.

I noticed that Marcus Montereal was really torturing me and he was mad at me, because if nothing else why is he doing these things?

I took a deep breath and started repeating what I had done.

when it was break time, I immediately took out my lunch and ate at my table because I didn't have any friends here in the five months I had been working here.

While eating, I looked up when someone approached me, I saw that Leo was one of those who are work here in the HR department, he was assigned so I only saw him once and I wondered why he was here, ah maybe he needed something Mr. Montereal, but the inheritance will be instructed by Mr. Montereal doesn't bother him during lunch break so I wonder why leo is here.

"Uhm, yes ?? do you have something?" I asked shyly

"Hi Nicola, I'm Leo" he introduced me with a smile.

"A-Ah .. Hi Leo .. "I said and shook hands with him.

"This is for you, Nicola" and handed me the flower, I didn't notice before that he was carrying a bouquet of flower.

I shyly accepted the flowers

"Thank you Leo, it's beautiful" I said with a smile and smelled the flowers "this is the first time I receive a bouquet of flowers so thank you so much" I sincerely thank you.

Leo is handsome but Mr. Montereal is even more handsome wait what ??? Why I am thinking him? What the heck, Nicola!

"You're welcome nicola, you're so beautiful .." he didn't seem to say anything of his own.

"H-Ha thank you" I said shyly.

"Nicola uhm what .. can I... can i ask you something??" I immediately look at him and nooded

"Yeah sure, what is it?" I ask

"Can i.. Nicola can i court you?" He asked me and he looks shy.

I was a little surprised so I didn't answer his question right away.

he wants to court me??

I was not able to answer him immediately because the intercom rang.

"Ms. Santiago go to my office" It was Mr. Montereal voice and he want me to go in his room office.

"Ah Leo, see you later, I'm really sorry Mr. Montereal is calling me.." I said to leo who is waiting for my answer.

"It's okay, see you later, Nicola" he said with a smile and walked away.

I knock three times the door of Mr. Montereal's office.

"Come in." He said so i come in.

"Sir, do you need something??" I politely ask.

But he didn't look at me he just looking at the papers.

what i am doing here? he's not even answering me..

"Eat" he said and the pointed the food without looking at me.

What??

"S-Sir?"

" I said eat, there's a food there, from now on you won't not gonna eat in the outside, you'll gonna eat here." He said i thought he would not talk anymore because he continue what he is doing so i was so shock when he said these words "And by the way, don't let that boy court you, he still a kid so, tell him to back studying in highschool." He annoyed said at me.
