Kathryn rolled her eyes as she continued to stare at them, it just felt like they’d been sent after her, they’d been sent to ruin Daniel and her reputation.
“So what if I’m dressed like this? Does it make a difference?” She asked as she looked at herself after turning.
“Of course it does, look at how you’re dressed and you’re the assistant to such a man as Daniel Lopez and…”
“Hold on, the last time I checked, I wasn’t clad in a mini skirt or a body hugging gown or anything inappropriate so why do you have a problem with my outfit?” She asked as she folded her hands against her chest.
“That’s because you’re not dressed as an assistant. Any explanation for that?” One of the women asked and Kathryn rolled her eyes.
“Kathryn let’s go. They just need something to cover for their page ” Daniel said and held on to Kathryn’s hand, dragging her towards the building. He’d had enough already and he wasn’t sure how long he could be able to control his anger for. He didn’t want to kill then and end up losing his deals and if he didn’t want to get more infuriated by them, he had to leave.
“No Daniel. I know you’re trying to stop yourself and not make a decision you might have to regret later on but it’s high time I showed these people their place” she told him as she stared into his eyes.
“Kathryn, I know these people better than you do. They want to get on your nerves and then prove to the world that you’re not fit for being my assistant and…” before he could complete his statement, she gently took his hands off hers.
“Just trust me” she told him with a smile. “The same way I handled the reporters at the hospital, I will handle these ones” she told him
“But there’s a difference you know” he told her and she smiled.
“There’s a difference and I know that. The difference is, the reporters at the hospital were more than this. I took out three sets of your best goons the first time we met. What makes you think I can’t take out three silly reporters?” She asked him before walking to the reporters, not waiting for his response.
Immediately she’d walked away from him, she got into the car and the reporters along with the camera man rushed to her, still trying to question her despite the fact that she was in the car.
“Tell us madam, what has your boss told you? Has he threatened you?” The reporters asked as they continued to interrogate.
“No he hasn’t” she said and the moment she came out of the car, she poured an entire bottle of water on the head of one of the reporters, not stopping till she’d emptied the whole bottle.
“Oh God, what has she done now?” Daniel asked himself as he shook his head, she was such a fool, he thought to himself. They were now going to think he’d asked her to pour the water.
“What the heck?” The first female reporter asked in anger as she stared at herself, she had been completely soaked and her dress was now ruined.
“Go change in the truck” the second female reporter told her.
“But then I….” She tried protesting but the second who was apparently her boss stopped her.
“Just go change Nicole” the second reporter said.
“Okay Mrs Harrison ” Nicole said grumpily as she walked into the truck they’d come in, closing the door.
Mrs Harrison stared at Kathryn, “you know she could catch a cold for what you just did” she said and Kathryn chuckled
“No she won’t ” she said
“And how are you sure about that? You drenched her in water!” She said angrily and Kathryn pointed to Nicole who had come out of the truck and walked towards them.
“Oh my, aren’t you a reporter?” She asked and the two stared at each other, confused.
“What are you even asking?” Mrs Harrison asked.
“I mean, as a reporter, aren’t you supposed to be dressed corporately? Why is she then clad in a hoodie and a Jean trouser?” She asked, referring to Nicole.
“You poured water on my dress and you expect me to stay clad in it? Do you want me to catch a cold?” Nicole asked angrily.
“See how angry you are? Look how infuriated that I asked you why you changed your clothes? Now think about it. I also changed my clothes because they got wet. Is that enough? Hopefully you don’t crop this out when you post this to your pathetic site” she said, rolled her eyes and walked out on them.
She walked to Daniel who was all smiles at this moment. He felt so proud of her, there couldn’t have been a better way to handle the whole situation. In this situation, she’d told a very good lie!
“Shall we Mr Lopez?” She asked with a corporate smile on her face.
“Yes we shall Miss Rivera ” Daniel said and before they finally walked into the company, Kathryn turned and passed a mocking blow of kiss to Mrs Harrison and Nicole before finally walking into the building.
Mrs Harrison clenched her fists hard in anger, “the audacity of that girl, I’ll make her pay ” she told Nicole who was as angry as her boss was.
.
“You know, you’ve become really capable as my bodyguard, I gusss hanging out with me has made you really smart. You now lie like it’s some piece of cake” he told her and she chuckled.
“You do have to keep a lookout, there’s someone out there who wants to ruin you. Trust me, the aim of that interview was to prove to the world that you were free with your employees and they could dress as casual as they could” she told him.
“I guess you’re right. Someone is definitely planning straight attacks at me and I have to find out who it is” he said as they walked into the elevator.
“Yes and …”
“Enough about that already” Daniel said as he stood in front of her.
“What are you doing?” She asked as she tried to step away from him.
“Don’t you think you deserve a little reward for guarding my company’s reputation?” He asked her with a smirk.
“No, it’s fine, I…” before she could complete her statement, he planted a little kiss on her lips.
“There, I just made your seduction a little bit easier. Just hope you can grasp from there” he told her with a smirk and just then, the elevator door opened and he walked out, adjusting his suit which made him look more dashing.
She just stared at him, she had been struck!
