Never Let Me Go

Chapter 10: Interview call

An entrenched feeling developed in their hearts whenever they thought about the beautiful incident that happened in the last few days. Although they made themselves busy but once a day, they smiled within themselves with the reminiscence of that beautiful moment.

They met only one time, but it seems they knew each other for a long time. Soft-hearted Alyona wanted to meet her Mr. Right. She somehow felt this man to whom she met one time and kissed could be her Mr. Right. She left everything in her God's hand as she said,

"Father, It's you and only you who knows what my heart wants, but I believe you will give me the best. If you want me to meet him, you will make the way. Amen," She smiled and passed her kissed to her heavenly father before she went to sleep.

It's been two weeks; everything worked out for Olivia as her boss didn't have clues about the stranger girl was her friend.

Alyona tried to find a job for herself to support her mom.

While Alexander, with his ruthless attitude showering his anger on his employees.

"Fire them all," he snorted.

He fired all his top models who took his brand lightly. He is a man of promises and never compromised when it comes to his brand.

He worked hard to build his brand Enamore. When his dad told him to accept his step-mother or leave his house, he chose to leave his house and build his own empire. 

He never respects women except for his actual mom; why would he? No woman in his life shows him love or care; his mother died when he was eight years old. His father didn't wait, even for a month, to bring his new mom, who never loved him. 

Well, what we could expect from a child when he saw money as the only thing that gives power. His father was busy establishing his business while her mom was busy with her newborn baby. He felt alone when it comes to the people who love him; there was nobody to love him appreciate his small works.

Then he entered his teenage there he met his best friend Esrael, who understood him and gave him a space in his heart.

From there, their friendship starts as they trust each other and established Enamore. Both of them poured their souls and worked ass off for this brand. Their hard work pays off when Alexander and Esrael were recognized as the youngest entrepreneur in the country. 

It's the time when they were about to launch a new fashion series to make their brand ready for the international level; they found out some of the models were spoiling the reputation of their brand due to drugs.

"Fire them all," he called an urgent meeting with his investor who wanted to work with these top models.

"Alex, it will be a bigger risk on our side," Esrael tried to control his anger.

The board room was full of investors and managers.

"I don't care. I took every s**t these bitches pulled on us, but when it comes to my brand, I will eat them alive." He slammed on the big wooden table situated in the center of the room.

"I want you all to trust me. We will bring new models, and we will work hard as we always do." He squared his shoulder and looked at everyone's face.

Everybody knew Alexander is a hardworking guy. If he is confident about something, he will get it.

They agreed to fire all the models and hire new ones.

"Alexander, we trust you, and we know you will do it; Do whatever you want, in the end, it's the only profit we count on," they all agreed on his risky decision.

Alexander POV

I walked out with Esrael and told him to schedule all the interviews from tomorrow.

"We have only five days to choose these models, and this time I am going to take their interviews. I don't want to take the risk,"  I opened my office door.

"Sheena, send me two coffees," I threw my words while passing my assistant.

We entered the room as Esrael was ready with his documents.

"Ok, we will start the hiring process from tomorrow morning," Esrael answered as he sat across the table.

Sheena bought the coffee and placed it on the table.

"How are you, Sheena? When are you going for your maternity leave?" Esrael reminded me of something.

"s**t," I whispered as I rolled my eyes.

I totally forgot Sheena wanted to go on maternity leave.

"I wanted to talk about that with the boss, but it seems like you are busy these days," she looked at me.

"I am in an emergency, and you want to take off? Just take your leave and go from here." I answered her casually without concern about her health.

She nodded her head as she was familiar with my nature.

"Wow, now I need to hire an assistant too. What a shitty job?"

I answered in a shrilled voice.

"At least I am lucky to have a supportive assistant," Esrael honeyed his voice again, with the thought of Olivia.

I smiled devilishly and looked at him.

"What? No... no, Alex," he understood what I was about to tell him.

"Yes, Olivia is my assistant now. Send her into this building from tomorrow." I smirked at him.

"You asshole, you knew I like her, that is, why you are taking her away," Esrael gruffed at me.

"No, I want you to work not to think about how you could ride your d**k on her," I laughed.

"You are really a cunning man. I wish you to feel the same way one day." He backed himself on the chair as he tried to avert my peer towards him.

"Don't worry. I am not going to touch her. She is all yours, but yes, I wanted her to work hard in my office. And you told me; she is a hardworking girl, then let's see," I answered him.

"Ok, I promise, I will send her back after this week's process, after all, I needed an assistant for urgent. Till the time you can find me one." I winked at him as he felt happy with a little hope of getting her back.

Esrael went to Olivia and informed her to publish a job vacancy to hire an assistant. 

"Are you going to fire me?" Olivia purred as her eyes were peeking through her glasses.

"No, never. You are the best. It's for another person in our office,"

Esrael didn't say regarding Alexander. He didn't want to give her a shock as she would be Alexander's assistant for a week. Neither he told her about the assistant job is for Alexander's.

She accepted, and the first thing she did was to call Alyona.

"Al, I got good news for you. My boss just told me; we need an assistant in our office." Olivia whispered.

"That's good news, but how is it possible for me?"

Alyona answered the phone.

"It's nothing; you first prepare yourself for the interview. And Enamore is a big brand, and we have two different buildings. I use to sit with my boss Esrael in a different building, and Alexader works in another building. So all things are good until and unless we see him."

She concluded the talk.

"Are you sure?" Alyona asked.

"You want a job or not?" Olivia snorted.

"Yes," 

"Then I will meet you in the evening and will tell you how to prepare for the interview." Olivia sends kisses and hung up the phone.

Alyona POV

Olivia gave me the good news. I was trying hard to get a good job for the last few weeks, but couldn't find one.

Somehow I was concerned about the thought of meeting her boss.

What if he sees me? Is he going to recognize me? Maybe not; my face was covered with the masquerade mask. 

It's been two weeks; he might forget about me. Well, according to Olivia, he used to change girls more than his clothes. 

But deep in my heart, I wanted to see him one more time.

I entered the house as mom cooked my favorite chicken fajita and cornbread.

"Ummm...mom, thank you. Olivia called, tomorrow I need to go for an interview in her company." I screamed.

My mom glared at me. I rolled my eyes as I understood why she gave this tough look.

She has her concerns about my pitch; my voice.

She always scolds me to talk softly in a low pitch, or should I say in low decibels.

"Mom, tomorrow I need to go for an interview," I tampered my voice in a Donald duck pitch.

She laughed as she couldn't control her laughter on the variation of voice I use to produce.

We enjoyed our Fajita as I wanted to meet Olivia after this.
