Hailey's POV
We had dinner and Timothy seems Of,
like he was thinking something. I
didn't pay much attention to him and
later after he left me,I'm back room ready
to bed," It's been a long day, as soon
as my head touched the pillow I was
deep sleep.
The next morning"
Getting up, I quickly did my daily routine in washroom took a shower and
changed in my office outfit taking
my bag and headed out. Cassandra was
already in the kitchen making coffee
for me. I had my coffee and left for
office.
Reaching my office I quickly placed
my purse and files on the table and
make the black coffee for Timothy,"
on the way to his office. As I opened
the door, Timothy was looking over to
the city through his glass window
his back facing me. I intentionally
cleared my throat to grab his
attention," He turned around and
smiled at me. I held up his coffee to
which he nodded. I quickly placed
his coffee on his table and left to
carry on with my day. I started
off with the files from finance
department, I read it twice to find
any loopholes just in case. I was busy
doing my work when there was a
knock on my table, I looked to see
a man of around in mid fifties. He
gave me a warm smile as I mirrored
his smile.
"HOW may I help you sir ?"
I'll was wondering if I could meet the
CEO, He said he wanted to see me"
" Um ...I don't think you have made
any appointment sir ?"
"Should I take an appointment to
meet my son ?"
My eyes widened at this. s**t. I
quickly shot up from my seat and
apologized.
Um..I'll let him know that you are
here."
" Sure." He smiled again.
I knocked Timothy's office door. There
was a soft voice ,"come in
"Tim your father is here want to see you,"
" Yes, send him in, Also don't let
anyone come in until I ask you to,
And if anyone tries to push of, you
have the liberty to call the security,
Okay ?" he asked almost unsure from
yesterday's events.
Okay." I smiled and let myself out
I let Mr. Wesley go in. It was weird
this was my first time meeting him,
he seemed nice though I can't believe
he didn't even try to search for his
wife.
I continued to check the files left
by various departments for Timothy to
sign, but he always asks me to read
each file twice before giving them
to him. There were still many left
even after I completed a stack of files
yesterday, there were still the same
today. I wonder how Timothy manages
them all, but the company is big so
it makes sense and he manages it
so well. I sound like a school girl
crushing on her teacher." damn!" I
need a break.
20 minutes later Mr. Black came
out with a frown on his face, He was
followed by his son. Timothy stopped
by my desk and said " I will be back
in an hour or two there are few
unanswered mails and also check
the files of PR department, they
are on my table also I want you to
send a mail to Mr. West in order
to postpone the meeting to next
Saturday and I come back I want all
the work should be done without
any mistakes. " He spoke rather
authoritatively than normal, I am
guessing it's because of his father
"Okay sir." I said while taking down
the points he asked to do.
"It's that all sir ?"
"Yes, it is."
"Okay, sir. Have a good day." I said
politely.
Timothy nodded once and left with his
father. I quickly kept aside the files
I was working on and made my way
to his office to pick the files.
Entering the office I checked the files
and picked 45 of them which were
from PR department, while walking
out I looked in the there corner a small
photo frame, for some reason I was
intrigued by it. As I moved nearer
to it, all the files in my hands fell
of to the floor. It's him. He knows
him. s**t, what if he already told
him where I am. what if he knows
me ?? this is so messed up. I tried to
regain my control. Trembling I bent
down and picked up all the files,
turned around only to get hit by a
hard chest. I looked up and there he
was standing with his hands in his
pocket a and a hard look on his face.
"I told you to pick the files from the
table not to wander in my office. " I
flinched internally at his cold tone
to addressing me, I was not used to it
not specially from him.
"I am sorry." I said trying not to
Sound scared.
Tell me why are your hands
trembling princess. Is there anything
I Should know and you are not
telling me ?"
"No there is nothing."
" Really then why are you so
Scared ?" he asked in amusement.
"I am not scared just I haven't seen
you with anyone like this so I was
umm.. I was wondering who he is
to you. " Great Hailey that's best you
could come up with ?
"He is one of my oldest friends.
we studied together. " he causally
replied."
"ohh I um... will get going I have lots
of work to do. excuse me."
He nodded at me and stepped aside
without asking anything,. Just keep
it smooth, just keep it smooth don't
let him know about your past. One
mistake and everything changes.
I left his office kept the files on my
desk and walked until I reached the
ladies restroom. Resting my hands
on either sides of the basin I let half
of my weight fall on counter. The
Scenes kept repeating in my mind,
like a tape on rewind.
"
"you are nothing but a pet of mine.
"I Own you, you won't talk with them
ever again. "
"My little kitty will not make me
angry would you ?"
"You life is nothing but pathetic, you
were not needed, they let you live so
that they can give you someone else
and make money from you enough!"
That's it. I am resigning
tomorrow and leave. I will go away
as far as possible. I can't stay here
not anymore.
