BEING HIS SECRETARY

❤️ ALYSSA’S POV ❤️ Waking up to be welcomed by the usual arguments and fights in my family has become normal, it isn’t new to me that my mum or dad or even my elder brother will be exchanging one word or another every morning and to be sincere, it’s getting tiring and after every argument's Mum will remain indoors doing nothing but crying, and I hate it. I hate it when they fight because there isn’t any food in the house, I hate it when they fight because there is no money to pay for the light bill or water bill and that’s why I keep telling myself to go get a better job since my elder brother doesn’t want to work. “You don’t always have time for your family Marco, what kind of man are you to leave your house when you know your family is starving and at the end of the day, you’ll still come back with empty hands.” I heard Mum yelling. “I’m busy, Lucy,” Dad replied nonchalantly, and that fueled Mum’s anger more. “Busy, busy you say, Marco, yes that’s what you always say busy,

ALYSSA’S POV I yawned loudly and paused when I didn’t hear a single noise, everywhere was dead silent. I didn’t hear Mum yelling at dad. So, I got up from the bed and rushed to the living where I met Mum crying, what happened again? “Mum, What’s wrong?” I walked closer to her on the couch. “I’m fine Aly.” she whispered, cleaning her face. “No mum, you aren’t fine, please tell me what’s wrong?” I placed her hand on mine, and she burst into another round of tears. “Your father Aly,your father left us.” i froze for a while processing what Mum just said, dad would never leave us, I was heartbroken why did he leave us?, why? “I know this is all my fault, if I wasn’t nagging at him every time this wouldn’t have happened,but I could bear to keep quiet anymore the pain was becoming unbearable. I’m sorry Aly this is my fault, I caused this.” I pulled her into a hugged patting her back lightly, I was trying not to tear up in her presence. “It’s okay Mum st

ALYSSA’S POV A knock on the door brought me out of my thoughts, Mr. Xavier said a come in and a familiar figure walked in with a smile on his face. What’s he doing here?? “Good morning sir.” he greeted, but Mr. Xavier's face remained the same. “Tristan, you’ve been assigned to show miss Brown her office and put her through with some paper works.” WTF! Tristan, Tristan works here, I stared at him like a bloated goat. “Tristan.” I called with my mouth still wide open. “Hey Aly.” he answered lowly. “Am done, you can both leave.” he ordered. “Okay sir, miss Brown this way please.” we walked out of the office and he (Tristan) announces to the other candidates that I was already hired and there is no more interview, some grumbled and cursed before leaving, the ladies gave me a really hard glare. “So you work here.” I asked, trying to start a conversation, cause since we left the boss’s office he hasn’t spoken a word to me. “Y… yeah.” he replied shy, placing his hand on his

ALYSSA’S POV I left the lobby and entered the elevator to my office floor, I dropped my bag in my office first before going to handsome punk's office to clean. The office was neat when I got there, so I didn’t do much, I went back to my office and sat down waiting for the arrival of Mr. Xavier. Like an hour or so everywhere was so boring with nothing to do, I only heard chattering from the staff and almost immediately the noise died down, the hallway was silent like an angel was passing by. The landline rang out, and I was startled, I cleared my throat before answering. “Good morning, this is W.....” “In my office now.” I dropped the line as he hung up, and I breathe out slowly, you can do this, Aly. I walked to his office and knocked and as usual, he ushered me in. “Good morning sir.” I greeted, and he stared or should I say glared at me before speaking. “When did you get to the office Miss Brown?” he asked, and I was silent m, why is he asking that now. “I

ALYSSA’S POV TWO WEEKS LATER Two weeks with Mr. Xavier is like hell to me. I don’t know what’s wrong with him a minute he’s calm, the next he’s like a roaring lion. He’s like a pregnant woman with deadly mood swings or can I say a pregnant ‘man’. He’s getting more handsome and sexy each day and I love it, I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I think I like Mr. Xavier, and I’m confused. I don’t know if I really like him or love him. Right now, we are on our way to a very important meeting in the next town, Mr. Xavier, and I were sitting in the back seat with the driver in the driver’s seat. The ride was a long and tiring one with nothing to do but stare at my iPad, but finally, we got to the company and went in. “Good morning, Mr. Winthrop, this way Please.” A charming young man said while staring at me with a seductive smile. Please don’t tell me he’s trying to flirt with me right now, I turned to see Mr. Xavier giving deathly glares at him. “Please lead the w
