I put down the cup of hot coffee on his rectangular desk, I readjusted my black skirt before I darted out of the spacious office. “I thought you were going to help accomplish the goal” Her voice made me halt my pace as soon as I stepped out, I was heading to Mack’s office. I tilted my head back to her slender figure on the seat, before turning around completely. “You couldn’t attain it and again, you created a fight between two best friends, who does that?” She deplored, an annoying smirk was glistening at every corner of her oval shaped face. I managed to squeeze out a smile before moving myself closer to her desk. “Miss Felicia” I called warmly, “It’s obvious you’re highly deranged, and I believe that you know what people would think if they caught me bartering words with you” Her radiated smile changed to bitterness at once. Then it was my turn to smirk, “Don’t mess with me, I won’t repeat this again” I left her desk and turned to where I was heading to earlier.
“Okay if I come in, Mack?” I knocked briefly on his door and asked, “Yeah, please” I heard his casual voice, then I jiggled the doorknob, pushed it open slightly and stepped in. His office was large and unique with a rectangular desk in the middle just like the CEO office, but a bit different. I stood at the door, “Can I see you for a minute?” I asked, tentatively. He heaved his head up, then nodded his head twice. I thereafter strode completely into the office. “You may sit down” I inhaled sharply before planting my ass on one of the chairs across his desk. “What’s it, Kiara?” He inquired calmly, I breathe out softly before speaking out, “I need your help, Mack” his brows sewed, “I need to go back to the chairman of DY corporation, Mr. Arthur Jacques” I told him then his eyes grew up in surprise. “What are you saying, Kiara, what do you mean you want to go back to the chairman?” He scratched the bridge of his nose while asking me, “You see… There’s a mess I need to clear up, the chairman was not being fair and I need to make him realize things” He sat up on his seat, stooping his hands on the desk. “I knew something went wrong, but Alexander wouldn’t say it to me, so please tell me everything I need to know, Kiara” Mack requested, decisively. “The chairman was truly flirtatious as you’ve said, he tried flirting with me in the presence of everyone after the banquet that day,” My fist had curled up on my thigh while I explained, “The CEO didn’t quite seem to appreciate such gesture as he blew up and pulled me away from the chairman” I let out a rueful breath after I concluded my words, “Nicholas was present at the banquet too?” Mack inquired, inquisitively. “Yeah” I nodded, sincerely. “Whoa…” He got on his feet, and moved away from his seat. “I thought you and Nicholas were dating” My face crumpled up as I asked, “How do you know that?”
He shook his head then said, “That doesn’t matter now, how do you intend to make the chairman realize things?” I removed my gaze from his face and also got on my heels, “I’m ready to do anything Mack, in as much as we have the chairman on our side” I declared, “But it’s your boyfriend…” I rolled my eyes, “Help me get to the chairman, Mack” I plea, cutting him off. He exhaled deeply, “Okay, but what how will you tell Alex?” I walked up to him as I answered back, “I already informed him, but he’s not in support of my decision” Mack watched my face for a moment, “And you still want to do it?” I nodded, “Please talk to him” I told him, and with that, I walked out of his office.
Getting to his office, I met the scowling secretary at her position, shooting at me some dangerous glares. “Bitch” I mumbled, then bent the doorknob to the office. Goddamn it! He was already on his seat, working conscientiously. My footsteps were not evident as I walked to my desk, silently. “Good morning, sir” I greeted calmly. “Morning” He replied almost immediately, without sparing me a glance. Later, I walked around and sat down on my seat. “Get ready, we are going out now” He informed. A happy smile covered my face immediately, another journey with Alexander, how sweet… He unexpectedly peeked in my direction, and before I could compose myself, he had already caught me smiling. “I told you to get ready” He said, coolly. “I’m ready, sir” I responded, while standing up. He rose to his feet, pushed his seat back and walked out. He didn’t say any word to me, then I look at his back view disappearing out the door. I quickly bounced out of my seat, cleared his table and carried the briefcase which was already containing his PC. Now I was more afraid of him.
I ran to meet with him, but he already got on the elevator, I attempted to move in with him but got struck. The elevator clasped my petite figure, I whimpered softly as I struggled to break free. I gazed at his handsome face, but he pretended he didn’t hear my cries. Shortly, he hauled me by my shirt, then I lurched into the elevator, which caused the briefcase to fell off my hand. “Ouch!” I suppressed a moan as I quickly collect the briefcase from the floor. After I regained myself, I modified my shirt, but then I realized that the two upper buttons were already pulled out, I became highly strung up as I quickly squatted and began to search for the buttons. I knew he would be staring at me by now, but I do not care, my cleavage was already depicting, one would think I was aiming to seduce the CEO.
In a short period of time, the elevator bell rings and opened. I perked up to see him walking out already. Jeez, where are the buttons? I leapt on my feet and rushed out, walking right behind him. With one hand, I carried the briefcase, while I use the other hand to hold up the upper area. We got to the garage, his driver was already there. After a short greeting, he opened the backseat door for his boss, he stooped and got in, and I followed him, tightening my grip on my shirt. Later, we were embarked on the unknown journey.
At the facade of the building, “Good morning, sir” A young man approached us and welcomed him, with a warm smile on his lips. We were in Dallas and, without being told, this was one of his companies as well. “Yeah, I hope everyone is settled?” He questioned grimly, walking ahead of us. “Yes sir, you are the only person we were waiting for, everyone is already on seat” The young man replied formally, strolling right beside the CEO. As I walked after them, I tried readjusting my shirt because I wouldn’t be able to hold it up inside the conference room. Gosh, I just pray I wouldn’t get fired today.
