Love Hurts

Chapter 5

I got down quickly from the car and waved goodbye to Ben. One of the things I hate most is wearing skirts, I prefer trousers to skirts it is just annoying not being able to move around comfortably.

I rushed inside the building, I was amazed by the way things were running easily. The workers were well organized and I loved it.

After asking for a while I finally found what I was looking for, the CEO's office. I stopped the elevator on time and scrapple in, it was full and a little choking.

I moved to a corner and pressed the Sixteenth floor, I noticed someone was glaring at me from the other end but I ignored it. Maybe it was one of my dad's security men.

It took about six minutes before the elevator finally stopped on the Sixteenth floor. I got out of it and tried to find my way to the office but I have no clue where to go.

I noticed a young lady beside a door and I walked up to her.

"Morning, do you perhaps know the CEO'S office?" I asked politely.

"You must be Rose Prescott?" she asked.

"Yes"

"I've been waiting for you, come with me," she said and I followed her as she requested.

After a few turns, she finally stopped Infront of a door. She knocked and someone asked her to come in. She turned back to me and told me to go inside.

"Thank you"

I walked in and sat down opposite the woman, she looked elegant and she was giving a cool aura.

"You must be Rose? I'm Ella Fitzgerald," she introduced herself.

"Nice meeting you, Mr. Wilson recommended me and_"

"I know," she cut me short and continued," fill out these papers," she handed them to me. I filled it in no time and returned them.

"That's impressive," she complimented me as she glanced through the papers.

"Is that all?"

"Yes, Mr. Arthur won't be around today, and it's better I show you around," she stood up, "come with me"

I followed her outside her office, she has a great personality as expected.

"What's your job exactly, Ella?"

"Well, I am the manager for HR"

"Really?"

"Yes, of course, and you know I would have to study about you too it's not a big deal"

"So you just walk around the whole company all day doing nothing specific?"

"Not that!" she snapped and turned to me.

"I get it," I said jokingly.

"I want to ask you a quick question if you don't mind," I said.

"Go on, I know a lot of things and I even heard he's a gay"

"A gay?" I chuckle, "that's so absurd, I don't believe you"

"Come with me," she dragged me into a room and pointed to a fat bald guy at the other end of the room.

"Who is that?"

"Arthur's driver, he doesn't let young boys drive him so he won't be tempted," she said. Ella's point does sound reasonable to me.

"Well, I guess I would have to accept your point, but what happened to Arthur's former PA?"

"She died, suspiciously, I heard she was drugged and killed in her apartment but the case is dead now"

That must be Mr. Wilson's job.

"By the way, Who is Mr. Wilson to Arthur?"

"He's Arthur's uncle"

"Uncle?!"
