Gabriella’s eyes widened in shock as she read the headline. Panic and fear gripped her, turning her face pale as her mind raced with worst-case scenarios while she read the caption under the post.The new release of smart fingerprint door locks produced by Kingston Enterprises was failing woefully. There were several reports of robberies at different stores, businesses, and homes in the city, all of them using the locks the company produced and had released into the market only two weeks ago.The post contained several videos of different aggrieved people dragging the company for selling ineffective products without considering their safety and causing them great losses.The comment section was filled with even more complaints, and people were even bringing up motions to cancel the company and never buy their products ever again.Gabriella wondered if Alexander had seen this post and, if so, what it would mean for the company. Would they fold up? Would she be laid off?‘But I literall

Getting home, Gabriella was overwhelmed with joy as she danced around her room, while gushing on the phone with Khloe.“I can’t believe I actually got the job,” she screamed as she dove into her bed.“I always knew you would get it, Gabby. I’m so happy for you.”“Thank you so much,” Gabriella responded with the biggest smile.“Hey, why don’t we go out to celebrate tonight. This is a big deal, and you deserve it.”“I don’t think I should, I start work tomorrow.” Gabriella felt skeptical about going out to party the night before she resumed her new job.“Come on Gabby, you never go out. You’re always cooked up in your apartment. You need to live a little.”Khloe was very persuasive, and her enthusiasm was difficult to resist. After considering the idea for a few moments, Gabriella finally agreed.“Alright, fine, but we can’t stay out too late.”“Yessss!!!” Khloe screamed, making Gabriella pull the phone away from her ear.“I’ll be at your place by 9. Oh, and wear something cute. We’re g

Reaching the huge double doors, Gabriella breathed deeply, saying a silent prayer as she knocked, then squaring her shoulders, she opened the door and stepped inside the office.The CEO’s office was sleek and modern with grey walls and floor-to-ceiling windows. To the right side, there were exquisite leather armchairs positioned in a conversational circle with a round, marble coffee table in the middle. To the left was a private elevator, and Gabriella recalled the one she had seen earlier in the foyer, hidden off to a corner. Right in front of the windows was a massive desk that exuded authority and power, and seated behind it was the CEO himself, Alexander Kingston.Gabriella approached the desk with a confident stride, her steps quick and purposeful. She made sure to keep her chin up, and then she let her smile creep subtly onto her face just like she had practiced. “Good day sir, I’m Gabriella Whyte.” Her voice came out firm and sure.“Sit,” Alexander replied to her coldly withou

Walking into the building of Kingston Enterprises, Gabriella was greeted by the rush of air conditioning, blasting a cool breeze that enveloped her and sent a subtle shiver through her body.She did a 360 of the ground floor with her eyes, marveled by the professional decor and detail of it all. The marble tiles made an occasional soft, squeaky sound as she proceeded to walk towards the front desk, to whom she assumed was the receptionist.“Hi, I’m Gabriella Whyte.”The receptionist, a blonde-haired lady who seemed to be in her late thirties, looked up from her computer.“How can I help you?”Her eyes looked tired, and there was a loose strand of hair that escaped from a perfectly put-together bun that sat at the top of her head, held tightly by a black scrunchie.“Yes, I'm here for the interview for the secretary position.”The receptionist bowed her head and typed a couple of words into her computer. After a few seconds, she read her name from the screen and looked up.“Gabriella Wh

“You’ve got to be kidding me!!!”Gabriella lifted her purple blouse from the ironing board and stared at it, feeling defeated. It was her favorite, and she planned to wear it to her interview this morning. The blouse had ruffles down the center with silver buttons and a collar that made her look mature and professional, but now it was ruined, the burnt material staring back at her mockingly.“Well, I guess that’s that.” She flung the blouse to a corner and walked to her closet, trying to find something else to wear for the day. Reaching for her second favorite, a red satin blouse that hugged her chest area a little too tightly, she pulled it off the hanger and examined it.“This will just have to do,” she said as she put her hands through the sleeves and stepped in front of the full-length mirror in her bedroom to assess her appearance. She had mid-length brown hair that fell in soft waves to her shoulders, with matching brown eyes that complemented her round face perfectly. Her smal
