Eva looked at me confused while I paced around "Adeline, open the door this minute and pay me my money" Mr. Wendy says still banging the door really hard. "What do we do?" Eva asked me and I shook my head, I had no idea what to do right now. "Okay, I have an idea." she whispered, I looked at her expecting her to talk but instead she kept on shoving me to bend "Can't you just talk?"I whispered-yelled and she rolled her eyes. "Get under the bed," She said and I sighed, the man was banging much harder on the door. I squeezed myself under the bed and prayed that whatever Eva wanted to say would actually work. I heard the door open "Where is Adeline, I want to see her this minute" Mr.Wendy snapped and Eva sighed "She is not home, I am the only one here right now but when she does come here then I will ask her to come to see you personally."Eva said the man scoffed "I saw her come in here but all of a sudden she has disappeared? what sort of magic is that?" He asked and I shut my eyes closed where I was. "Are you sure you don't need glasses because Adeline didn't come here with me, I came alone?" She told the man and I heard a long pause. "I will be back for my money, either Adeline is here or not, I don't care but let her know that whenever I see her will be her last time in this house because I will throw her out of this house." He said and walked away. Eva closed the door and I came out from my hiding place "What are you going to do now?" Eva asked and I sighed, sitting on the bed 'I have no Idea, Eva, He is determined to throw me out of the house and if he does, I have no idea where I would go to."I said and she sighed 'If that happens then you have to come to stay with me, Three roommates or not." She said and I smiled "Yes mom." I replied while she stood up. "I have to leave now, I need to go to the club, see you later?" She said and I smiled 'See you." I replied and watched as she walked out of the room, I stood up and closed the door behind her. I had no idea what to do, Mr. Wendy was more than ready to throw me out of the house and even with what Eva had said about her being welcomed to stay with her, It genuinely was something I couldn't do. I have to find a way to pay Mr. Wendy by all means.
I stripped off my clothes and walked into the tiny bathroom and turned on the tap so I could bath but alas. Mr. Wendy had done his magic and cut my room off the water. What in the world was I supposed to do?; I mean this was my first time owing him his rent and all of this was just because I had gotten fired from my previous job four months ago, Now it wasn't as though I didn't try my best to get a new job but it has been proving extremely difficult for me. I got fired from my last job because the boss's insolent and stupid bratty son had thought it would b okay with me for him to grope my bum but then I gave him a befitting slap, one that he wouldn't ever forget in his lifetime. The boss was more than mad that I slapped his one and only son' that he gave me my sack letter the next day. I sighed and kicked the empty bucket of water, taking my anger on the bucket. I walked back to my room and wore my black shorts and yellow tank top, I needed money and I need it fast. I picked my laptop and turned it on, checking my mail and internally praying that I would at least get good feedback from the companies I sent my resumes to. The first mail I clicked on said..."Dear Applicant,We are sorry to inform you that you did not make.,.." I hissed and deleted the mail immediately, checking my other messages but they were filled with the same thing "Rejection!" I groaned and attempted to close my mail but I paused, I still had one message that I hadn't read. I clicked on it and read through it. WAIT!? Ashford group of companies? when the fuck did I send them my Resume? and how the fuck did I miss the fact that I had an interview scheduled for tomorrow by 9? Ashford group? Did I by mistake send them my resume?Chapter 4I was still pretty surprised about the fact that I had an interview with the Ashford group, they were like the biggest company in Manhattan. I picked up my phone and dialed Eva’s number of which she picked up almost immediately. “Yo, I just left your place and you are missing me already?” She said and I rolled my eyes “I command you to stop feeling important, I didn’t call you because I was missing you.” I said and heard a long pause on the phone “Are you going to talk or are we going to keep doing breathing competition?” She snapped and I rolled my eyes “I have an interview tomorrow with Ashford group of companies, did you apply for me because I can’t remember applying for the job?” I asked, “Nope, I didn’t... you probably applied for the job while you were at the club and didn’t take note of it
Alexander’ McGuire ~The loud thunderous noise coming from the sky made me wake up from my sleep, I glanced by the window and saw that it was raining heavily, I got off the bed and walked towards the window that was open, I tried pulling the double shield down but the something caught my eye...I couldn’t make up what it was as it was extremely difficult to see what it was, I strained my eyes to see what was and suddenly paused on seeing what it was. A stray puppy. I ran to my coat stakings and wore my rain coat, No puppy should be caught in this rain. I ran downstairs and opened the front door, “Mr McGuire! Mr McGuire!” I heard my house help Hannah yell and I groan, i ran out and opened the gate even with the rain still banging hard. Well somebody must have offended God.I looked around and saw the puppy shiveri
Adeline Monteiro~I had slept in the cramped up place of Eva and the rest of her roommates but since I wasn't all that comfortable with it, I woke up early and was able to have my bath, I wrapped the towel around my body and walked back to the room, Selina and Eva were both entangled which only made me chuckle, This isn't the first time I will be sleeping over at Eva's place but then it wasn't like I am a frequent visitor. I pulled my bag and began to dress for the day, I could only hope that I got the job. I wore my clothes and pulled down my hair from the ponytail that it was in. now out of all the features of my body, I loved my hair the most and took care of it like my baby. I have long wavy brown hair that didn't need much work to get it bouncy. I brushed my hair and applied lip gloss to my dry lips. I was done dressing up and looked at Eva who was still sleeping and snoring. I bent over slightly and tapped her so she could wake up but of course, I needed a whole serenad
ChapterI couldn’t understand exactly what was happening? Why was he here? “Y-You!? You are him? Him is you?” I shook my head, This couldn’t be possible “Mr hot specimen?” I blurted out and his eyes widen “I see, Is that my name?” He asked and I shut my eyes closed. Now there was no way in hell I would be getting this job. “See, I’m really sorry about that night.” I rushed out “You are sorry that we spent the night together?” He asked and I shook my head “No, that’s not what I meant,” I saw him smirking and facepalmed myself “I mean, I’m sorry sir, I didn’t mean- oh goodness,” I was making a complete fool of myself while he sat there enjoying the show. I was done making a fool of myself, I stood up “I’m sorry, I have been wasting your time.” I said dejectedly and attempted to walk away “Aren’t you here for the interview?” He says and I paused, turning to look at him “Have your seat and let’s g
"Adeline! Adeline! Adeline!" I heard someone call my name repeatedly and I looked up sleepily at who was calling me, "Eva!? what is the issue?" I cried out and she placed her palms against my mouth, as though she wanted to silence my existence. "You have a call." She said and gestured at the phone in her other hand. "What?" I gestured, raising my shoulders up and down. She removed her hand from my mouth and gave me the phone. I collected it from her and raised my eyebrows. "Hello.." I murmured into the phone and waited for a response. "Ms. Monteiro?" A female voice says and I looked at Eva puzzled "Who is it?" I mouthed and she shrugged "I don't know." She mouthed back. "Yes, It is me? How can I help you/" I asked "I am Daniella, calling from Ashford group of companies. I am calling to officially tell you that you have been hired to work with us as the personal assistant, We have sent you a mail to let you know and also all the information you will need about your job and the remune
Alex~I was done with work for the day but still hadn’t left the company, My mind was still pretty stocked on seeing the same lady, The same one that has been on my mind for some day, I saw her in the flesh in my company. I could hardly remember what had happened that same night but yes I am wanted it to happen again. Seeing her today brought back the night.My office door flew open and I looked to see who had barged into my office. Ricardo! Wasn’t he supposed to be in Vegas? Why was he still here in Manhattan?“Rossi, what are you doing in my company?” I asked and he rolled his eyes “Such a way to welcome your beloved best friend? You’re such a friend.” He said and I chuckled “Aren’t you supposed to be in Vegas?” I asked and he collapsed on the couch, I stood up and walked closer to him “I am so tired of working
Adeline~Okay so today I resume work at Ashford group of companies and well am I hyped about it, Yes I am. Am I bold and confident about it? No I am not.I mean I feel like I would fuck up and be sacked again but then if there was one thing I will do, It will be that I will give it my best.I got off the bed and walked into my bathroom, Now most of you will only remember Mr Wendy cutting off my water supply but then again yesterday when I got back to this hell hole, the water was running and I was able to store about two buckets of water. Apparently Mr Wendy had travelled about a day ago for his relative’s burial and won’t be back till a week’s time. See how God works.I finished with my bath and walked back to the room, taking out
Adeline~I looked around my office again and smiled in satisfaction, This is my office. My office! "In your face Mr. Brandon.! " I yelled internally and dropped my bag on my table, taking a seat on my chair as I rolled around, the happiness I felt at that moment could definitely not be destroyed even by Uriel. The door to my office opened again and I stood up immediately. Daniella came in with a smile on her face and passed the balm to me. "Here, it should reduce the pain and also the purple shade." She said and passed it over to me. I collected it and smiled at her 'Thank you." I say and she smled at me, Daniella was an extremely beautiful lady, she had the kardashian body type and Emma Watsonkind of beauty. She walked out of the office and I opened the balm, applying the yellow mixture gently on my wrist, I cursed Uriel internally for giving me such a bruise. I stood up and looked at my office again, My office wasspacious with white marble tiles, a large bl
