Secretary to Mrs. Campbell

The Work

After Anika left Nathaniel’s cabin, he was in a daze he liked how Ms. Gupta gave her interview. In fact, Nate was impressed by her choice of words. It was fun to watch her reaction when he just shrugged at her questions. Nate was actually ready to hire her as his secretary. Nate’s amused but everything. When he turned around and saw her, I was stunned. For the first time in his life, he was mesmerized by the beauty. Nate has dated top models and actresses with hourglass figures but none of them had left such an effect on him. She looks like a cute little doll with 5’ height. The navy-blue dress pant and shirt she wore made her plump body look gorgeous. Nate smirked when he saw her ogling him. He did hear her mumble the whole colorful description about him and was happy to hear she was attracted to him as well.

A knock on the door snaps him out of his thoughts. “I know it's you, Mrs. Bridget, you don’t have to knock. Come in.” Mrs. Bridget comes and sadly exclaims, “Nate why did you reject her. I really think she’s the one for you. I like her and as she will be working to reduce my work, I want her please Nate.” “Mrs. Bridget I never rejected her. I just..” “Then why did she leave angrily? What did you do?” She interrupted Nate, “I don’t know” and just winked at her. “Nate you naughty boy, why did you tease the poor girl. I’ll call and inform her.” “Sure Mrs. Bridget but post-lunch. Now let me work I have an important meeting in the evening.” Mrs. Bridget left and Nate emerged himself in the work, still thinking about the Indian beauty.

Just before lunch, I ringed Mrs. Bridget, “Mrs. Bridget did call her? She is coming from tomorrow at 8 am right?” “Yes, Nate I have informed her and she will join from tomorrow and I’ll explain everything to her. You don’t have to worry about a thing.”

Anika POV

While preparing for lunch my phone ringed and without seeing I received it. “Good afternoon, I am Mrs. Kelly Bridget from Campbell Hotels. Am I talking to Ms. Anika Gupta?” I was shocked to hear from Mrs. Bridget. I reply quickly without any further delay, “Yes, Mrs. Bridget. Thank you for calling me. I know I didn’t make it to the interview, but you still called me I am grateful for that. You know if I had grandma, she would probably be like you. I don’t know just saying, Krishnaji knows better. What can I do for you, Mrs. Bridget? Why did you call me? Did I forget something at the office?” I heard Mrs. Bridget giggle. Did I just c***k a joke that even I’m not aware of, I wonder? “No dear, but you can help me if you start working as a secretary to Mr. Campbell and help me reduce my workload.” “Huh, does this mean what I’m thinking it means!? Krishnaji thank you so much. Mrs. Bridget thank you very much. You just fulfilled one of my dreams.” “Miss. Gupta sees to tomorrow at 8.00 am sharp don’t be late.” “Mr. Campbell hates late comers” we completed the sentence together. I giggled and said, “I know I know Mrs. Bridget I’ll be there at 8.00 am sharp.” After disconnecting the call, I am jumping around my apartment with happiness but carefully as I don’t want to use my inhaler. I prepare everything tonight itself as I don’t want to risk getting late tomorrow for the first day of my job.
