The Betrayal In Mackinac Island

Chapter 5 The Hurricane

Chapter 5 The Hurricane

Jay's Thoughts

I am heading back to my main home. For some reason I automatically knew she wasn't here when I came through my elevators. I brush off the uneasy feeling and head to my suite. It is one am in the morning. So I head straight to my bed and fall fast asleep.

When I wake at 6am I ams till beating myself up for not getting up at my normal time four not six.. Uugh.. I hear my elevator and I know it's Ms. Perez. Uum she has a cute little black dress on and it clings to her figure well. I quickly get to my bathroom and lock the door. I feel like a teenager for a second.

I want to see what she does when I am not here. She has a baby blue rust furred doberman. I have already wanted one but I never had the time to take care of it or even connect to it. He was a fawn rust doberman and he attacked me. I am pretty sure I had it coming to me, but hey what can I do?

I had my knife and stabbed him and the abdomen and slit up. It was either him or me I chose to live. Justina cried and didn't speak to me for weeks. I didn't ever understand why she was upset, it was almost as if she wanted me to die...

Anyway I hear Susana and she is cleaning, I hold myself back because cleaning isn't apart of her duties, I pay another lady for that. But then she turns the music up high and starts dancing while she cleans. I just look how carefree she looks.. She hides this side to her very well. From our very first to our last encounter she is a tough woman. I laugh a little because of how small she is and the persona of tough she plays very well. Then she leaves from my sight, so I decide to get dressed and head to the kitchen.

She is still dancing and making breakfast.. Um the food smells amazing.. I decide to spoil her fun and turn the music off. She turns around and jumps, because she is startled. She is barefoot with the low cut black dress and her face is just as red as an apple can be.

She stutters "Sir I apologize I didn't realize you would be here this early. I.." I interrupt her and reply in a stern voice "Why are you cleaning and cooking? Have you handled ALL of the tasks I have given you?"

At first she has a startled to a surprised and then all of her facial features went blank she says sarcastically "Sir I didn't know you'd be here like I said. It is fine I will clean this up and leave."

This is such a frustrating woman and I haven't even known her long. How can someone that I have barely met get under my skin in such an annoying but adorable kind of way. I tell myself no I am done with these thoughts. I reply "That is fine finish up eat and then clean and if your clocked in I will not pay you until.."

This ballsy woman interrupts me again "Sir you didn't hire me to clean or eat your food. I am not on the clock and if you don't believe me check for yourself I have nothing to hide. I will take this where I was going and I will be back."

Before I could say anything she leaves my office. I slam my fist on my desk but an idea quickly runs across my mind. I call Susana in.. When she comes in I can tell I get on her nerves and I am pleased for some reason.

She says with a sigh "Yes Sir?" I say in a menacing voice "First do not walk away from me when I am talking to you that is a form of disrespect and I will not tolerate it.. Second please do not interrupt me when I am speaking that is also very rude. Thirdly you work for me and whether you are on my premises or not you will answer ANY of my questions I have for you."

She clears her throat and I see a glimpse of hesitation, but she quickly recovers and says in a less respect tone then before "Look Mr. Johnson I will take the not walking away and interrupting you while your talking. But if I am not on the clock I am not obligated to inform you of my personal information or whereabouts. I know you don't pay me to clean but your housemaid called in sick so I came in to get the cleaning done before you got here. I got a little hungry and I made me something to eat. Oh my goodness you should have me hanged."

She pauses and continues "Look I don't know if this will work, I am taking off.. My work is done for the day and I'm sure you can handle your own businesses. I did organize your files so it will be easier for you to get to them, and your calendar is up to date all the way the March of next year so you should be able to find another crazy person to be your personal assistant. Goodbye have a good day and nice life."

She f*****g made me speechless again. I am standing here with my mouth hanging open and I have nothing to say. I mean I have had my crazy disgruntle employees but not one that has been direct and tough with me.. I'm used to the googly eyes and the obedience each them had. Now this high strung stubborn woman is driving me up the wall.

I see her grabbing her doberman and walking down the hallway. I hear her dog whining... It's almost as if the dog knows Susana is sad.. Very interesting... I walk out of my office and call out "Susana!" I run to the elevator and thankfully she is still there...Sigh... I say "Look you have done so much more than any other PAs I have ever had. I don't want to loose you as an employee. I will do my best to be more respectful to you."

She looks surprised by my words and inside I am proud. Yea how does it feel? She replies "Look I need to think about this. My last job was similar to this kind of thing and I know it always ends bad. I would rather leave this place on good terms."

She pauses for a moment and looks at me with those light brown puppy dog eyes "I will text you tonight to let you know for sure. Thank you Sir for your offer though." The elevator bell rang 'Ding' She turns around with her puppy walking into the elevator. She turns back around and stares at me with those enticing eyes without a word and the elevator doors closed the moment we were having.

I go to my office and I check everything from top to bottom. I had it in my head she was going to move things around to where I don't have any idea where it is. When I open my mahogany drawer there were color coded files with different labels with different titles typed on each file folder. I read them.. Residential Collected.. Need to contact to collect... Property Taxes, School taxes, Inspections, Miscellaneous..

I don't even finish I close the drawer and opened the other and it read Commerical and there were things like Insurances, City taxes, Inspections, and a red tab labeled "Missing Money". This one caught my attention enough to grab it and open to see the contents.

26. Ellis...

I shut the paper my eyes started to go cross eyed.. All of a sudden I don't feel very well.. What the hell I don't get sick. I fight through it and walk to my kitchen and grab a bottle of Ozarka water. I shouldn't have reacted the way I did.

The atmosphere changes when we are in the room alone by ourselves. Even though it has been but a couple of encounters with her before my trip and after the feeling of desire doesn't change. I haven't felt like that since... Okay I can't compare, but I can't help not to. I haven't felt like this in a long time and to be honest it's quite overwhelming.

I give her a call 'Riiinnng' 'Riiinnng' 'Riinng' I start to hang up, but someone I don't recognize answers in a deep tone "Hello.." I say in my deep and passive aggressive tone "Yes I need to speak with Ms. Susana Perez." The man stays quiet for a moment and then replies "Look just give her time she will call you when she is ready. It was nice talking to you. Have a good evening." I try to say something but he hangs up on me. What the f**k?... Okay you want to play in that ballfield I know where you live sweetie.

I get up and I get a rush of vertigo and it's not a very good feeling. Okay I need to eat something my stomach growling right when I have that last determination. I head toward a safe house that I know of that a buddy of mine owns. I need to get some time to myself.. I decide to walk to get some fresh air..

When I get outside I see it's snowing outside and I decide to go back in to bundle up. As I am leaving through the lobby I run into Alicia and she says snarking "I heard she only last a couple of weeks." She laughs hehehehe "Now what are you going to do? Ever since Justinas death.."

Before she could finish her sentence I was two inches from her face and I felt my eyes getting red and for some reason I saw red. I say in my deadliest tone "Fredrick can you please remove this woman from my premises and call the police. I would like to file a restraining order."

Fredrick comes around and grabs her by the arm and starts to escort her out. I Ask Josh to grab my automobile and I wait at the top step of the porch at my amazing Hotel. Especially at night as the moon glistens in the water, the crickets fill my surroundings and I am at peace. Tomorrow we will see what she will say when I show up..
