Chapter 7 Nikita Jones POV Hi, I'm Nikita Jones 20 years old, I was adopted as a baby and grew up with my amazing parents Joy and Seth Jones when I was five, they had my sister Ella Jones. When I turned 18, I searched for my birth parents I found out they died in a plane crash, and it’s said that the entire family died so I gave up. Today on my way to the mall. Someone hit me from behind. When I woke up, I was in a hotel room, and a guy called Jack Black told me I was kidn*pped because they mistook me for someone else. The person is my birth sister, and they were meaning to hurt my sister by extorting money from his boss. He also informed me that his boss ordered him to save me and to bring me to the hotel. My twin sister and his boss were on their way. "What’s her name? My sister" I ask him "Carla Simpson that's her name. They on their way they should be here soon" I’ve always assumed she was in the plane with him when it went down. That’s interesting that she wasn’t there she was on the list of passengers though. I do remember seeing that. I can't believe it I have another sister; this is a bit much. I don't even know what to say. Just then she walks in holding a man’s hand. He looks rich, actually he fits her well they look good together for some time no one says anything, like really now can this get anymore awkward. I would much rather have a bear or a tiger here, it’s so much less awkward. I would be running for my life but at least I won’t be stuck here. I don't even know what to say. Hey Carla, I looked for you, but I thought you were dead my bad for not trying hard enough? I know she never knew anything about me. Finally, her boyfriend or husband or whatever speaks honestly, I wasn't really listening. "Hey, I'm Kyler your future brother-in-law, and this is your sister Carla, my fiancé" he introduces himself He stretched out and waves at me and greets me "Hi I'm Nikita. Nice to meet you" I say softly. Just as I stretch my hand out to greet her and just like that she faints. I'm like talk about bad luck, is it just me or is this girl a bit dramatic??? Now they going to think I did something to her. I roll my eyes in my heart. I promise I didn’t touch her. she fainted before I could even touch her. “Carla? Carla?” he lightly taps her face but she’s unresponsive. He lifts her into his arms, and he rushes her out of the room. I follow after him like a lost puppy. He drives alone with her; I am forced to drive with his assistant. Was she sick before this? Is it something I did? I didn’t know how to feel. Was it my fault? An hour later we finally arrive at the hospital, I rush in with the assistant hot on my tail. When her 'whatever' tells me someone poisoned her. I start to panic someone really wants to hurt this girl and now I'm dragged into this because we share the same face just my luck. Am I in danger also now? I've always been a carefree take it as it goes but these rich people problems are really too much. I have kept my face out of the media and out of the public eye because I wanted a normal life. Rich people have a lot more serious problems than us regular folk. I am an international model I normally wear a mask on as part of my mystic... But I don't keep any of that money I donate it the children's hospital and to the children orphanage in my local town and I just got to America it is my first time here, so no one knows me here. I know this is related to Carla's affairs and I will help where I can. Need to help her. After waiting for what felt like an eternity she's finally out of surgery. I must say her 'whatever' is a bit dramatic. But I guess he loves her. I fished out information from his assistant, so I heard they just met a few days ago and they are getting married next month damn these rich people are messed up. Rich people problems are out of this world. They are getting married, yet they not only just met but they know nothing about each other. That is crazy. When I came into the ward later, they asked me to help them, and they tell me their plan of action and I have to be her for the next month while she stays low. I don't know if people will buy it though because Carla and I don’t look exactly the same, her eye color is a shade darker than mine, her eyes are bluer than mine. We keep our hair differently I have black hair, Carla has lighter more brown hair and are. She curls her hair, and my hair is longer than hers. So, people could tell the difference if they were looking. She said she would help with the business part of it. I never went to I just have to act I must bring her all the files and she will handle the rest I just have to act like nothing happened. To catch her uncle. Her well our uncle is out to kill her. She explains to me that I was stolen from our mother and sold or that’s what they think happened. Kyler promised to find out what really happened. They also explained that her uncle Sam killed them and also tried to kill her to steal the company. So now I'm really into this rich people plans. Don't get me wrong I would do anything for family. It’s just the way they handle stuff is different to the way us poor folk do. =================== So, the next day bright and early I enter the company so weird girl keeps calling me and running after me I'm starting to really get annoyed. "Who are you and why are you following me you are really getting on my last nerve" I ask annoyed "President Simpson I'm sorry but these and urgent board meeting they want to change CEO's the media got wind of you being in a coma in the hospital, so they want to appoint your uncle as acting CEO" she informs me. Ah Carla’s assistant, I guess. So, the bastard actually exceeded my expectations he told the media, I'm a model I know how influential the media can me "Okay weird girl that keeps following me where's the board room?" I ask. I forgot to ask Carla to explain where everything was. "Uhm president???" she looks at me confused. Hell, I was even more confused than she was. "Weird girl where the board room before it’s too late?" I ask her This girl is really weird. Then she runs towards the board room without waiting for me. I walk patiently towards the direction she's running, and she stops at the door. She tells me the meeting started a half an hour ago. And I open the door. The people inside look at me as if they've seen a ghost, I honestly can’t help but laugh I was laughing so well. Soon that Uncle guy gets up gives me the CEO seat... And the fun begins... I smile... (My evil, devilish smile) "Good morning... Why was I not invited to this board meeting? Or is someone trying to steal the CEO position from me?" I ask with a smug smile Everyone freezes and look at me weird afterwards I laugh since no one is answering me "Come on live a little it’s just a joke" I laugh "Right president we were informed that you were in a coma, and we were scared it will affect the business the stocks have decreased since the news of you being the hospital had been realized we needed to act fast, so we decided to act fast and appoint someone as acting CEO until you return.” He speaks. I lift my brow at him "Does it look like I'm in a coma? And who's idea was it to replace me? And by the way why is one of the shareholders not here?" I ask. I'm guessing they know the relationship between Carla and Mr. 'whatever' since they didn't invite him to this meeting. I know he's a major shareholder so he should be in this meeting, I also know that his vote trumps all the other votes. I'm totally not going to stay in this position for a whole month. So, I'm about to speed things along by pissing a few people off. "Urh president we thought he would be by your side. It was Mr. Simpson who told us you in the hospital he found out via the media" he says quickly in fear of angering me. "So, Mr. Simpson can't speak for himself?" I ask eyeing my so-called uncle. I couldn’t even look at the man without getting pissed off. He robbed me of the opportunity to meet my birth parents. "Urh president it’s not like that" he says quickly He was the bravest of everyone here. he was the only speaking, yet he looked seconds from shitting his pants. "Then what is it like exactly?" I ask raising my brow at him "President we just wanted to get ahead of the news" he says quickly "So, this plan to replace me was well thought out I wonder do we need to reshuffle a few directors. I mean you are plotting to throw me out after all" I say smoothly "Urh no President that's not our plan. We just doing what's best for the company. We..." he says again I raise my hand to signal him to keep his mouth shut. "Since when is it your choice? This is my company!" I raise my voice I slam my hand on the table for a dramatic effect "I decide what is best for the company... And what is best right now is you keeping your mouth shut, and as of right now you are no longer the director of…” I pause when I realize I have no idea who he is or what he does. “Wait what exactly is your job?" I ask him "Urh president I'm director of PR department" he says "Well, you are not that good at your job if false rumor of me being on my death bed is running around on the internet so from this moment you are fired, and nothing is being done about..." I speak Everyone is looking at me shocked, like what just happened. No one else said anything or even looked at me I must say watching movies and series in my off time really paid Off it feels amazing to boss people around and throw of threats. Hehe, I laugh inwardly... I just love the feeling of the rich and powerful. "This meeting is over everyone may leave. NOW!" I shout Everyone runs out of the boardroom... This uncle man come up to me. "Carla, you are doing a great job, but remember don't let the power go to your head you've only been CEO for a day anything can happen" he warns Is this i***t is actually threatening me? Well, I'm not someone to be easily rattled asshole, I cuss him mentally "Uncle you don't have to worry I have everything under control. And no the power is not going to my head. But I needed everyone to remember who owns this company and who is CEO of this company." And I give him my brightest most innocent smile I could get myself to bring He stares at me stunned for a few seconds and then says bye to me. He leaves shortly after. After that I phone Carla to tell her I created a bit of a stir or better yet a wave of sorts. I have to tell her about the director i fired. she said she would handle the rehire of someone new, in the mean time the assistant will take over his duties. She seems to be impressed by the way I handled this. She asks me where I learnt to be so domineering, I tell her on the TV of course. she couldn't believe it. Well, this was fun I hope I get to fire more people it’s so exciting. I actually don't understand why people didn't notice the difference between Carla and I we obviously look the same, but our personalities are different she's the little princess and I'm obviously the best bad ass chick ever. I'm more out there and crazy more of a risk taker. wait why am I comparing myself to her. right now, I have to make sure I don't get myself killed and I have to be more like her to do it...
