Chapter 2. Ava's POV I never thought anyone could tongue lash me this cruelly, I could barely utter a word as I had stared silently at him. "Tell me, what makes you think you can actually work in the Chandler's empire." He asked. "Mr. Chandler hired me, he trained me to be part of the company." I said as he gave a sarcastic laugh. "And you think that is enough to make you become a part of this company?" He asked. The way he taunted and made a mockery of me, only triggered the tears that were waiting up to flow down, but I promised myself not to get affected by his words. "Stay strong Ava, it's all a test." I had muttered mentally. "Well, now you're under me, and will abide by my rules and orders, if you don't want your life to be more miserable than it is." He said as I said nothing. "Is that clear." He yelled as I shuddered in fear. Nodding briskly. "Y...yes sir." I said as he smirked. "Good, cause I don't take no for an answer." He said before walking off. END OF RECAP And since that day, I knew who I was up against, and had to endure the humiliations and ill treatments with the hopes of actualizing my one goal. And that was being a CEO someday, I knew that it sounded like an impossibility. A girl with no background, no family, no reputation turning out to be a CEO was something the world will doubt, but I was gonna prove them wrong someday. Staring back at the documents on the table, how do I go about this? I had spent my entire day trying to form a convincing and pleasing presentation that will suite Mr Carlos's taste. But it seemed so obvious that none of what I ever did pleased him. For him I was an illiterate and a low class who was trying to mingle up with the high class and elites. But I wasn't going conclude my fate with his assumptions, all he thought of me was a low class bastard who can never get to the top but remains under his feet serving him like a slave. But to me I was a willing and determined girl who looks forward to seeing her dreams of becoming a CEO, and I would stop at nothing to attain that. I picked up my bag and carried the documents alongside me, this belonged to the CEO, Mr Chandler Spun, and he had given this project to his son to work on, only for him to abandon it and pass it on to me, that too requesting I start all over again. The ideas were the best of them all, and I had thought of taking it to Mr Chandler himself, he trained me in business so the ideas I gave here will be like a direct thought from him. That being thought I picked up my bag and headed for the Chandler's mansion. "Greetings Mr chandler." I greeted respectfully as he gave a welcoming smile. "Ava my dear, what brought you to my mansion, you know it's being a while now." He asked. Mr chandler was always fond of me and had wanted me to stay in the mansion, but being cautious of Carlos and the inconvenience I would have to suffer I bargained on getting an apartment. I wanted to be independent and not keep hopes on anyone. "I came to submit this." I said and placed the documents in his table as he took a quick survey at them, and after a while raised a gaze to me. "W..where did you get them from?" He asked. "Carlos had given them to me to work on, and I thought it'd be best if I handed it over to you after I was done." I explained as he furrowed his brows. "I had given this Carlos to work on, why then are they in your Care?" He asked surprisedly. Of course he should be surprised to know that Carlos abandoned his project to go attend to his own personal needs But I had to make it sound as though he was never a defaulter when he was worst than that. "uhmm... We had urgent clients in the company as at the time, and his presence was urgently needed, so he pleaded I handle the project while he attended to the clients." I lied trying to defend Carlos, though with all what he's done to me, I should be plotting against him rather than trying to defend him. But i wasn't the type who haunts for the downfall of others, regardless of what Carlos had done to me, I was still not going to do anything that may ruin the relationship he had with his father. Mr. Chandler may be under the impression that Carlos was a nice and kind hearted boss to the employees in the company as he Puts up an act whenever he was around his father. But in the real sense he was arrogant, proud rude and obviously cruel. Always intimidating and downgrading those lower than him. "He didnt make a mistake in giving you the project." he said with a smile as my face lits up in excitement, all awhile I had being contemplating if Mr. Chandler was also going to reject my presentation; I had assumed that maybe I was at fault for giving the wrong ideas. But getting to know that he liked it only made me ecstatic, I heaved a sigh of relief as I saw the happiness in Mr. Chandler's expressions. "I never made a mistake to make you a part of my company and an assistant to my son." He said as I smiled at his words. But being the assistant to his son was more likely compared to working with the devil, he'll taunt you till you give up, and obviously I was going through hell working alongside Carlos. But my case was different, I wasn't willing to give up.
