Chapter 5

Jordan POV

Did I sleep?? of course not... Every time I tried closing my eyes I could see that crazy mud girl throwing mud at me.. she was taking over my thoughts and I didn't like it one bit...

As if that wasn't enough, I had a lot of work at the office because yesterday I was busy thinking of ways to get back at her.

No girl ever drove me nuts as that girl did.. I was on the verge of losing my mind. Her attitude was the petrol, I was the matchbox, and every time we collided she become the fire.

I was impatiently waiting for Mr. Mark our house manager to text me when the crazy mud girl arrived.

I was walking in my room in circles looking at my phone after every second. I was going crazy and helpless at the same time.

All I wanted was to give her a little piece of mind and show her who is the boss.

Finally, Mr. Mark called me. The crazy mud girl was in the kitchen. I ran out of my room and headed straight to the kitchen. I was so left out with thought when we mistakenly bumped into each other and have coffee spilled all over my expensive suits...

"Can't you check if you are okay?? I wanna get back to work" she rolled her eyes...

" you spilled coffee on me?" I said looking at my suit

"you pushed me in the mud.. I guess we are even now... You know you should tell me if you are fine... you know you arrogant men love to create a volcano out of an ant hill.." she said

" I am sure it's not said like that.." I said authoritatively.

"Okay, Mr. knows it all" she glared at me with annoyance...

I thought I would give her a piece of my mind but there I was staring at her like a fool...

"I am....."

She just left even before I could finish my sentence. She was so rude... How can I get to the boardroom looking like an ass...

In the boardroom, yes I was in a meeting but my mind was elsewhere. I could hear people talk but I couldn't tell exactly what they were saying...

"Mr. Marcia, what do you think about the proposal??" Mr. Kimati asked getting me off guard.

" I think it's a good idea but I will need you in my office later. we need to talk more about this proposal..." I forced a smile and walked out of the boardroom... I need to focus but I couldn't... Sebastian followed me immediately to my office... Sebastian was my senior accountant and also my close friend. We went to the same college together though we separated after graduation. I met him two years ago at one of Jaxon's after-parties though he runs a fashion business too... Asked him to come and take over the accounting position in my company. And he's doing extremely well in the accounting department...

"Jordan, what's going on with you..? I noticed inside the boardroom you weren't yourself.. is practically clear that something is bordering on you... Do you mind sharing what it is?

"I can't fathom how I feel right now Sebastian but I'm very sure that I'm pissed ..." I sat down

"Don't you think that something must have triggered this feeling? I mean in every action there must be equal and opposite reactions to it... so what... or if I will say who pissed you off Bro..?

"I met this crazy lady about a week ago. Bro this lady threw mud at me... like seriously she literally made me smear it on my lips too and ran away..." Was looking at Sabastian to see his reaction...

"Like seriously..? She threw mud at you..? why?.." Sebastian asked...

"I mistakenly bump into her. She was actually the one that cause it. She wasn't looking at where she was going. you need to see how this lady insulted me.. like seriously I haven't seen such an attitude before Bro. This is my....."

my assistant walked in without knocking...

"Excuse me, sir??"She said

" Can't you see I'm busy??" I said with a bit of anger in my voice

"But Mr. Fran...."

"I don't care.....you are fired. I can't work with a girl who doesn't have manners.."

I thundered', making the poor girl flinch. I could see tears balancing in her eyes but I didn't care...she didn't have manners and that's all that matters.

"Jordan that was mean..." Sebastian shook his head when she shut the door...

"She doesn't have manners... I mean how can she barge in on us like that... anyways back to what I was telling you before... a few days ago Jaxon hired this same girl as his new fashion designer for his new project coming up in two months. Bro, I can't stand this crazy mud girl.. the thought of having to see her at the mansion every day is driving me insane...

"She even has a pet name "crazy mud girl"...interesting" Sabastian said with a smile

"No, She's irritating and I can't stand her.." I could feel my blood heating up. "She first insulted me in front of my brothers then spills coffee on my Italian suit and she doesn't apologize.. what an attitude? her temerity, the audacity that she has whenever she spoke to me... Sebastian, I wanna make this girl pay for humiliating me. I wanna strangle her, make her have a little taste of Jordan Marcia.." I was so mad I clenched my fist so hard... I took I deep breath trying to control my anger.. " I want her to beg for mercy when I'm done with her.. will teach her to respect. She must learn to know her place.. she can mess with anybody but not with the Marcians..."

"Okay, calm down Jordan. I don't think is that bad" Sabastian poured me some whisky. "Don't you think you are overreacting?... seriously you are being too dramatic over this..." maybe the reason why you are angry was that she didn't worship you the way other girls do.."

"What are you trying to say? now you wanna sound like my brothers... I wish you saw this anger in her eyes, her attitude.. damn brother, you will be scared" I gulped down the last whisky in the glass...

"I think you should go home. you know, relax a bit and try and take your mind off this.. you really need to get yourself back because we are in a middle of a big project.. and we don't need distractions.. common I will see you off to the parking lot...." Sebastian suggested...

"I guess you're right," I said... I dropped the glass cup and head out to the door...

Sadly when we get to the parking lot Jackson and the Car wasn't there... Jackson is my driver. He has been with our family for about years now. Though his family is not here with him, he always visits home at the end of the month.

"Where is the car..?" I asked Sebastian...

"This is your parking space Boss... So if the car is not here where could it be..? Sebastian said...

"Wait a minute lemme call the driver..." collected my phone from my left jacket... I can't believe this is happening... I dialed the number.. it took Jackson like 30 seconds before he picked up the call... now I'm trying to control my anger because that is what I have been doing all day.

"Hello boss" Jackson said

"Where is my car..?" I thundered...

"Boss I'm almost at the office," he said

"But where did you go with the car?.. You were supposed to wait here for me? where did you go? I asked again...

"Boss, please I'm almost at the office now," He said.... hung up

"God, I can't deal with this now... I mean what is wrong with everybody today?" I said with a lot of anger

"you really need to calm down Jordan" Sebastian said patting my shoulder...." I think I will follow you to the mansion because I don't understand this your mood today... I had to be sure you are okay" he said with a smile...

We had to wait another ten minutes before Jackson arrived.. something that has never happened before...

"Where have you been??" I thundered the moment he arrived... "Do you want to lose your job? Why would you keep me waiting?"

"I'm sorry Boss, I had to drive Mr. Jaxon's new designer around town to pick up some fabric.."

"What? with my car. I can't believe this" was looking at Sebastian to see his reaction... but he was mopping at the whole situation without saying a word...

"But you are my driver and this is my car... so why would you drive her.. because the last time I checked I didn't authorize that..." I said...

"Boss, all the other drivers were busy... Alex drove grandmother P to the hospital for her check-up. it's Albert's day off so I happened to be the only one available at the moment.. perhaps I didn't know you would leave the office so quickly. I'm very sorry Boss... it won't repeat itself.. please don't fire me.."

"God!!!! just open the door" he nodded and opened the back door...

" You see, she's taking over my life too... Now I have to wait for my driver as he drives her around.." I stated in a worried tone.

"You need to calm down Jordan... You heard the driver.. he was the only one available" Sebastian just made me feel like he was taking her side and I didn't like that at all... At least I needed someone to be on my side for once......
