Chapter 1 - INTERVIEW
Samantha Anderson
“So what makes you think we will hire you?” The interviewer asked me while I sucked in a hard breath and answered their question with a straight face. My father taught me.
“I am efficient, patient and I work hard with intelligence and I can work in any situation,” I replied to them. They nodded at each other.
“You did well, Miss. Samantha.” A voice said from behind.
“Mr. Bianchi?” The interviewer asked in disbelief. He was an aged person, not too old, but he was around my father’s age. His gaze looked over at me and for a second he squinted his eyes trying to recognize me while I stood there, clueless about what was happening .
“Alessandro Bianchi.” He greeted me with a firm handshake.
“Samantha, and thank you.” I greeted him.
“No Worries. One last question. If I put money on this table right now, will you take that or this job?” he asked me.
I smiled, answering his question. “I am not here for money. I am here to learn business. I am here to learn and develop my knowledge.” I said with a straight face. His lips twisted in amusement.
“You are perfectly handle him, Samantha. You are Hired.” I was ecstatic after hearing it.
“Thank You Mr. Bianchi. I won’t let you down.” I thanked him with a smile on my face.
“When can I start?” I asked, looking between them.
“Now. Your first task is to bring my son to the office.” He threw an unfamiliar task.
“I think it won’t be a problem when he is here.” I asked them, confused.
Alessandro looked at the interviewers and sighed. He sat in the chair and gestured to me to sit as well .
“Well, long story short. We had an argument about a business deal. And I thought he was wrong, but he won the deal. I am wrong about this. So he is angry with me and that is the reason he is not coming to the office.” He said while my lips twitched in amusement.
“Where Can I Meet Him?” I asked Alessandro, who looked shocked at my answer. “My Driver will take you to his apartment. If he doesn’t open the door, use this key card. “
He passed me the card. I looked at him after taking it from his hands. I grabbed my purse.
“But before that, Lilly will show you the office,” he said. A girl in her mid-twenties got there with a smile.
“This is Lily Lily. She is the new assistant to Ryan. Please show her around.” I bid bye to Mr. Bianchi and moved in with Lily. “Hey I am Lily.” she forwarded her hand while I greeted her with the same smile that she had. “Samantha.”
“Okay, I see you are not like others, like the previous assistant he had, and I am very excited to work with you,” she said with a.
I Giggled,“Let me say they are all throwing themselves at him?” I raised an eyebrow while she stood there nodding.
“Thought so. Anyway, friends?” I asked her while she giggled and hugged me all of a sudden.
“Of course, yes. Come, I will show you around.” She showed me various departments and, lastly, Ryan’s cabin.
“This is Sir Ryan's office, and this is the extra card for you to use. Mostly he will be here, but now you know. Also, a word of advice: he hates coffee. He always prefers tea. And his tea must be perfect. He is very short-tempered, so all the best.” I took a deep breath and nodded my head.
“Your cabin is right next to him. And that’s all. If you need anything, just call me and oh, here is my number.” she gave me her number while I saved it. “Okay now I have got to go. All the best, Sam.” with that, she sprinted off.
I went to my cabin and arranged things according to my preference when the cabin door opened, revealing Mr. Bianchi. I quickly stood up on my feet and greeted him. “I think he will be awake by now. He is a very short-tempered person. If he says something bad, don’t take it to heart.” he advised me.
“Don’t worry Sir, by hook or crook he will join the office tomorrow and that is a promise from me.” I assured him and collected my purse.
“I will get going.” With a smile, I left the office premises and went into Mr. Alessandro, car
It was a twenty-minute drive to reach Ryan House. I reached his apartment and rang the bell and waited around 10 minutes to open the door. But he didn’t.
I controlled my frustration and rang once again and waited if he didn’t open the door.
I opened it with the card that Mr. Alessandro gave it to me. I stepped into the beautiful house, which was full of only gray and blue. Weird !
I searched the living room to see any traces of him when I didn’t see any. I moved into the kitchen to see a figure standing there. Back facing me.
I cleared my throat to get attention. Before he could turn, I was going to get attacked by a knife, but luckily I dodged and stood up, “What a nice welcome!” I thought in my mind.
I saw his eyes. It was a blue one, the one which I always admire. “Who are you?” He asked me in his deep voice, but my gaze fell on his hand, which was profusely bleeding.
