IMPERFECT Assistant

Evan's POV I stood up at my desk, ready to call my best friend Zack to meet up for lunch. We had been best friends since our high school days and all throughout the years at Harvard University where we received bachelors degrees in Marketing and Communications, and masters in Business Administration. "Hi darling," a voice greeted as I was walking to my private elevator. I turned around slowly, knowing who it was, and she immediately threw her arms around my neck and drew me in for a kiss. I pulled away gently. "What are you doing here?" I asked her. I wasn't expecting her and I hated it when people showed up uninvited."I wanted to surprise you and take you out to lunch." She was still cheerful. How do I shut her down gently? I asked myself. Julia Starlet was a twenty four year-old actress. Tall, slim, blonde and beautiful. I adored her bright brown eyes and the elegant way she wore her makeup.

Jasmine's POV My sister and I waited for the midnight bus to take us back home. The night was still, calm and quiet. Well, at least that was what it felt like to me because I became numb. "Your mother's health is at a critical stage. There's nothing more we can do unless she gets that lung transplant. Without it she'll only have three months to live, or less. I'm sorry."Those words were haunting me and hung on my shoulders like a piece of clothing I couldn't shake off. I had absolutely no idea on how I was going to be able to pay for my mother's lung transplant. The given total was over half a million dollars, and I wasn't sure what her Medicaid would cover. Regardless, I would have to hit the lottery to obtain that kind of money.I had to pay the bills and the rent at my apartment, support and provide for my sister's education, put food on the table and provided for myself as well. It was all too much. I didn't know what to do or where to turn t

Jasmine's POV Oh my goodness, he actually fired her. He actually fired Miss Rhino, his COO and second in command.  I counted my lucky stars that I hadn't been previously fired as well.After the meeting and the firing of Miss Rhino, I went back to my desk and found a tall, blonde haired woman standing there. She had bright blue eyes, cream skin and wore an expensive suit. She had to be one of Mr. Hollen's girlfriends because she was not wearing a company name tag or a badge. She was also too overly dressed to be an employee. "Hello, can I help you?" I asked her. "Yes. Is Evan in?" she asked. I knew Evan was Mr. Hollen's first name. His father and mother called all the time asking to speak to Evan-- their son. "Yes he is, but he's not in his office. He should be here any minute now.""That's fine. I'll wait in his office.""No, you can't," I said. "Excuse me?" she asked, turning around at m

Jasmine's POV I received a phone call from my little sister right after I stepped out from my place of employment. She needed me to come get her and take her home from a bar-- she'd had a few drinks. And by a few drinks, I mean she'd been heavily drinking and now she was intoxicated. I found the bar after walking for half an hour. She was sitting at a table surrounded by beer bottles. Her eyes were slightly closed and she was holding onto a beer bottle like she was holding on for dear life. What the hell?"Zen, what are you doing?" I asked furiously, embarrassed to see her in such an unusual state. "Hi *hiccup* Jassy," she answered. "Come on, get up. I'm taking you home!" "No, I'm not ready yet anymore. I need to finish drinking this beer." "What the hell are you doing Zenia?" I asked angrily. "Drinking this beer. I just told you that. Duh!""Zenia, listen to me. You need to s

Evan's POV As the clock struck twelve, I was out of my office and into my Lamborghini and driving towards my mansion. Apart from the mansions I owned in Paris, Italy, London, Indonesia, Canada and Bora Bora, I loved the one in Brooklyn the most. I never called it home though. To me, a home was having someone or a family to go to, and I didn't. Mom had already called me three times to ask if I was ready for the trip to the Cayman Islands. Jessica roamed around the house and I headed straight for my shower. I shampooed my hair, took a long shower, and changed into a simple T-shirt and pants with sneakers. Afterwards, I dropped Jessica off at her work place. She wanted me to be intimate with her but I wasn't into her like that anymore. The feelings had faded and I was only tolerating her presence to get rid of the feelings that were building for Jasmine.I did not want to be involved with any of my employees.As I arrived at my p
