Entangled with my devilish boss

Chapter 5

Amelia's pov

I wasn't ready to admit it, so I just changed the topic of conversation.

“ Did you miss me,” I asked even though I already knew what his response would be.

“ I didn't miss you a bit,” he spitted and I chuckled loudly.

“ You can lie but your caring tone can't lie. Let's meet over the weekend for coffee okay?” We catched up on some other things.

“ Let's hang up now. It's enough talk for tonight, don't swallow me over the phone” I laughed because what he actually said was true. I have been yawning heavily since the beginning of the call.

It didn't take me long before I finally fell asleep, I was So exhausted from the day's activity. In fact, I didn't tose around before I slept off.

The loud sound of my alarm woke me up the next day. I angrily hit the head to stop it from ringing out.

The cold face of my boss suddenly came to my head and I hurriedly stood up from the bed. I yawned and arranged my bed before I dragged my lazy self to the bathroom.

I prepared myself for the day's activity, hurriedly took four slices of bread with hot beverage to step it down then dashed out of the house so as not to miss the bus.

I wore a black pants paired with a red shirt which gave off an alluring aura.

I was lucky to catch the bus on time, I could have ordered for a ride but I was on strict spending so I didn't.

“ Hello ,” I greeted everyone I met on my way, even though some just ignored me while others waved and smiled back at me.

I entered the elevator and pressed our office floor. I met three other people inside and we bowed at each other as a form of greeting.

If there is one thing that I like about this company, it's the fact that everyone minds his or her own business.

The elevator stopped at the required floor and we all made our way out. “ Good morning everyone,” I greeted warmly, I am a new worker so it's essential for me to make good impressions on my colleague. And lucky for me. from what I have seen so far, all of them are very nice and welcoming.

I dropped my bag on my desk, ready to start the day's activity when Gracie ran to where I was.

“ Helloooo,” she said beaming at me and I chuckled at her cute act.

“ Hello, How was your night,” I was arranging my table but I still managed to share my attention with her.

“ I didn't know when you left yesterday, I just noticed that your office space suddenly became empty,” she pouted as if I was wrong for not informing her.

“oh that? I had a meeting to attend with the CEO yesterday and I wasn't informed early,” I explained to her.

“ Really!” she screamed, I looked at her dumbfounded.

“ What is with the shout?” I hung my hand on my waist, patiently waiting for her explanation.

“ Uhn, it was an unconscious action,” she was all red from embarrassment so I didn't protrude further.

“ Did you go in the same car as him?” She asked with a curious expression. What exactly is wrong with this girl?

“ Of course,”

She gasped and gave me an exciting look.

She grabbed my hand softly and said “ What was the ride like? Did you guys converse? Did he make a joke,” she ranted and I was just staring at her like a lifeless doll.

“ Please answer me,’’ her eyes were misty already and she was almost on the verge of crying. Something doesn't feel right about this girl. Why is she always questioning me about the CEO?

“ I can't say much,” I glanced at my wrist watch. “ We are already at work hour, we will talk about that later, okay?” I assured her and settled down on my seat to start my work.

I got my official laptop out and started working on the pending mails that haven't been responded to. I occasionally glanced at time so as not to miss his coffee time.

“ Come in,” he commanded as soon as I knocked on his door. I entered with a coffee tray and dropped his coffee on his desk.

He took a sip.“ Thank you,” he said and I was shocked with his response. This is literally the first time that he will say a polite word In Front of me and I won't even lie. I am impressed.

“ What are you still standing there for? Don't you have work to do?” His cold voice questioned and I bowed and left.

The rest of the day went well, I guess the boss was in a good mood throughout because today was less stressful. He didn't even call for me unless it was extremely necessary.

I got off work early based on the CEO's approval so I used the opportunity to treat myself to a meal.

I went to a dessert shop around my neighborhood and ordered a cheesecake. I got it packaged for me and took it home to enjoy my delicacy.

Night time,

I was on my laptop working on the mail when I got a call.

“ Hello ma'am,”

“ Who am I on a call with?” The voice on the other end wasn't familiar so I left the formalities and asked.

“ Your attention is needed at extreme bar house, a man named Mr Brian Smith is here and he is dead drunk,” I was alerted when I heard my boss's name.

“ Try to get across to his personal assistant,”

“ This is the only contact we can reach, please can you come and pick him up?”

“ Okay I will be there soon, please watch over him safely,” we concluded the call and hung up. ‘ Why did he drink so much,’

I tried to place a call across to his personal assistant but all was to no avail and I don't have any of his bodyguards contact.

Not wanting to waste any more time. I just picked my phone, not bothering to change out of my thin pyjamas.

If I had known that going to the bar to pick him up was going to change my fate, I would have left him to wake up after a hangover.
