365 DAYS WITH YOU CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
Nate didn't ask for the medical report yesterday, so I assumed she was prolly occupied, and didn't want to disturb her, besides I got back late.I was to officially resume today, and could still feel the tension, I felt yesterday. "He is not a monster, breathe." I reminded myself of Nate's words, as a way of relaxing my nerves.Staring at my reflection in the mirror has become an habit for me, lately. My hands ran through my stomach, as I tried to feel for any movement. I know I was being silly, because it's too early for that.Reaching out for my hair, I tried dressing it just like the way Nate did yesterday. The result wasn't as beautiful as hers though. My name tag laid on the bed, and I stared at with admiration, like it was golden. It read 'PERSONAL ASSISTANT TO DANIEL BRADFORD, KHLOE JACOB'. Just tell me, who won't be grateful for this?My necklace was still fitted on my neck, so, all I had to do, was dress up, and place my tag on my suit, which I did within minutes.I admired m

Carl and Maria met at "THE GILDED ROSE DINING ESTABLISHMENT". The restaurant exuded a sense of romance in every tiny detail. From the dim lighting, and peaceful music, to the crisp white linens, and crystal chandelier. The chandelier which suspended from the ceiling above the room, was made of crystal droplets, sparkling in the dim light. It perfectly added to the romantic ambience. The dining establishment was nestled in a serene corner of the city, away from the hassle of the streets. Nate specifically choose this place, because of its idyllic tranquility. One could easily get enchanted, and fall in love in a place like this, temporary forgetting every other thing that mattered.The waiter handed Maria the Menu, which comprised of two sections, one for the wine, and the other, for the food.The food menu featured an extensive selection of dishes, ranging from West African Cuisine, Italian Pasta dishes, to French Seafood specialities."Uhmmm, I will go with the chicken marsala."

Carl was livid when he saw Nate. "Don't ever leave me in such uncomfortable situation again. The rest dates should be scheduled for 30 minutes. Once the time lapses, excuse me from the date." He said to her. No one needed to tell her how the date went. It was obviously horrible."Okay, sir" Nate brought out her tab, and typed the scheduled 30 minutes, as a form of reminder for herself. It was already 6, and Carl still had more dates on the line. She moved closer to him, with her tab, on her right hand."It's time for your next date. I carefully selected some random ladies, that may fit your taste." Who would ever want to lose a P.A like her, that relentlessly work towards reducing the workload of her boss.Carl scanned through the list, "The last time, I looked out for degree, but this time, I won't do that." His eyes kept scanning the list, and when he got tired, he randomly pointed at a curvy lady. Nate picked up her phone, to contact the lady with the number provided.***The seco

Nate's idea was completely off the wall, but was worth giving it a shot. His Dad was definitely going to go berserk if he ever found out about this, so everything has to be a secret. He just had to go along with this plan, or else end up losing the company. Everything to him felt like a game of life, and death, in which he must be the winner, or end up dying. 'Better dead, than losing', Nate always felt this was her boss's secret slogan, because he would rather drop dead, than let someone win over him. Carl's date was in an hour time, and as the time drew closer, he became more impatient, and anxious to get over it."How do I look?" He asked Nate, trying to get some sort of self appraisal."You look perfect" She gave him a guarded thumbs-up, despite the fact, she wasn't comfortable with the whole girlfriend idea, not to mention dating someone working under Mr. Williams' payroll, yet she silently prayed it works out, because the selection process was taking a toll on her.***Two hours

The elevator chimed open at the lobby, my pulse quickening as I approached the sleek, black Ferrari. The driver stood at the passenger's door, opening it with courteous flourish. "Goodmorning ma'am" He curtsied. Ma'am? Did he just call me that? I bristled. "It's Miss Khloe, thank you," I replied, my words trailing behind me as I swept past him. My cool confidence masking the butterflies in my stomach.My eyes met the piercing gaze of the guy, whom I was going on an unofficial meeting with, and then the sudden realization that this was actually real, and he is my boss's brother, hit me! My jaw literally hit the floor, cos how could someone look this perfect! This guy was like a walking angel, with a face that could stop traffic, or perhaps cause one. I recognized him from the first day I arrived, when he was having a chat with Nate. I was frightened to stare at him then, and didn't get to see his face, but right now, staring at him up close was like a whole different ball game. I alw

CARL'S P.O.V(POINT OF VIEW)I had no idea the new p.a was this daring. No one could turn me down, but she did. The moment she rose from the chair, and strode towards the door, exiting the Ice cream shop, I knew she was going to be a perfect fit. For the first time, someone confidently walked out on me! I love challenges because I always win, and she just became one, which I must win.As she strolled into the ice cream shop, heads snapped around in her direction. The dress she wore clung to her curves, emphasizing her graceful form with every step. She glowed with an ethereal radiance, captivating the attention of everyone in the room. As soon as I got home, I found myself pacing around the room, consumed with mixed emotions. I knew I had to find a girlfriend before the meeting with my dad, and time definitely wasn't on my side.I heard the doorbell ring, and asked the person to come in, without inquiring who it was. It was Mr. Stoner. He crept into the room like a shadow, as if he

"Mr. Carl, Doctor Bryan is downstairs." Nate's voice boomed over the phone. She couldn't go upstairs to deliver the message to Carl, because she was busy filling in for me. Daniel hasn't noticed my absence, since Nate made sure all the messages sent by him, got through her. I was quite lucky to have escaped Daniel's messages today, cos when I saw her, she looked like hell."I heard you turned him down" She titled her head towards my direction after dropping the call. After meeting Doctor Bryan downstairs, I was all shaken up, so I hurried to my room to calm down. Minutes later, I paid Nate a visit, with two things on my mind - Firstly, I wanted to find out who Doctor Bryan had actually come to see, and secondly, If my boss needed me while I was out. I was filled up with a mix of curiosity, and anxiety as I walked to her room."Did I?" I replied with a slow drawl, rolling my eyes with an air of faux innocence. She simply turned back to the paperwork on her desk, clearly not buying my c

I got called by Nate to her boss's room. One minute, I was in my room, and the next minute, I am standing in front of this smug-looking guy."My boss wants to see you in his room right now" That was Nate at my door minutes ago. I had just come out from the lavatory, were I went to throw up. My eyes were so dizzy, that I could pass out at any moment. Her message sent a shiver down my spine, and I stopped breathing again. Honestly, I had no idea how I managed to drag myself to his room. The corners of his lips lifted into a sly, satisfied smirk. I tried to brace myself for the worse, because there is no way, he hasn't heard about my pregnancy. Now, what is he going to do about me? Have my head on a platter of gold? My hands were clasped together, while my eyes were fixed on his."Are you ready to take my offer?, Or you are ready to lose your job?" Who actually starts a conversation this way, without preambles? Can't this guy ever act like his talking to a human that has feelings, and d
