Kathleen pov
Beez Beez BeezMy eyes shut opened at the sound of my alarm clock that was on the lamp stand beside my bed.I stretched my hand toward the alarm clock and turned it off.I wasn't sleeping that deep, I couldn't even sleep for long during the night. I couldn't stop thinking of Tony and wedding, including the blury memories of the night with Jason.At least a good thing came out all this mess, I got to keep my job even if I deserved to get fired.I need to get ready for work.I stood up from the bed and walked to the mute closet, I opened the door and stared at the mirror.The memories I shared with Tony came back flashing in my mind. It hurt more thinking I am not over him while he is enjoying his married life with another woman.I hate him, I hate, I hate you Tony for putting me is this kind of pain. I hate what me become, I hate you for breaking my heart, I hate you for making me believe there could be an us when you know there won't. I hate you for the five years of falling in love with you.Tears rolled down my eyes. I was crying for someone who doesn't deserve nothing from me not even my happiness.I wipe the tears from my face, he doesn't deserve my tears no one does.I won't let you change me, even if it being five years.I stared at my face, I remembered the make up Lora did for me. I was really beautiful, that how it surpose to be.I smiled at the mirror. "Time for make over." I grab my towel and to the bedroom to freshen up.When I was done with refreshing up, I went to Lora bedroom.I opened her room door but she wasn't in her room, probably in the kitchen.I went to the kitchen, I saw her with Lizzy. They were having breakfast."Hey Kathleen." They greeted at the same time."Why are you on towel?" Lizzy asked.I didn't bother to get dressed before leaving my room."Because I want you to get one of those clothes you wear to work, not the club Lizzy."She smiled. "You want a make over again, just like the wedding.""I said not an outfit to a club." I repeated."And I will be doing the makeup?" Lora asked.I nodded. "I want to look beautiful, different and more attractive." I smirked."Oooo, I like this new Kathleen." Lizzy said as she stood up from the chair. "Am at your service."Lora smirked. "I know what will be good for you." She also stood up from the chair.We all went by Lizzy bedroom to get the dress."I know just the perfect dress for you." Lizzy squealed."Okay but as long isn't sluty." I said.Lizzy giggled. "Ohh Kathleen, you're so funny but you have no idea how funny you are."She opened her closet and took a black white off shoulder dress with brown belt tied around the waist. It was really gorgeous."Wow Lizzy, when did you get this dress?"Lora asked."Just resent, I just haven't seen the right time to put on." She replied. "It would be better on Kath, than it would on me.""Thanks Lizzy. It perfect." I said happily."Yh I know, so what are you waiting for. Go ahead and put it on." Lizzy said.I nodded and took the dress from her. I immediately put it on. Lizzy helped in dress it properly.After I was done, I went to check out the dress on the mirror."Wow, this beautiful." I commented smiling."Yeah and this would make Jason see what he is missing." Lizzy commented.I gaze at her.She glance back and forth at Lora and I. "Isn't that the reason she wanted a make over."I sighed and went to sit on her bed. "I wanted a make over so I would be different from the girl that fell in love with Tony, I want to do what Tony hates me doing. I want to be different from what Tony made me to become.""Kathleen, I am sorry." Lizzy apologized as she came to sit down beside me."Okay if that what you want, let go get real change on that face."I smiled. "Yeah let go."I stood up and followed Lora out if the bedroom.We went her bedroom.I sat down at her dressing table while she began doing the makeup.I spent about an hour doing the makeup that was perfect, it wasn't too much but definitely okay to make me different."Looking good,kath." Lizzy said."Thanks guys, you guys are the best." I said as I stood up. "Am running late already."I went to my bedroom to take my purse and put perfect ankle boots that would match the dress.I went to the kitchen to meet them."On my way already." I announced.They smiled. "Goodluck.""Thanks and Lizzy, come pick me up from work, I did like to go clothes shopping with you."She smirked. "I know this day will come, at your service babe.""Okay bye ladies." I waved at them and left.I took a cab and left for work.I checked the time on my wrist watch, thirty minutes late."Yeah I would be getting a scolding from Jason when I get to work." I murmured.The cab dropped me in front of the Company, I paid and it drove away.I took an heavy breath before I began to walk towards the building. As I entered the building, eyes were on me.There weren't just taking a glance, they were staring and whispering things to their partners besides them. I ignored them and went to take the elevator.I entered with some few people who did the same thing. They were staring, I know I locked different but they should know it makes people uncomfortable."Excuse me, is this your first time working here?"the young man beside me asked.I shook my head." No, I am Mr knight secretary. "He blinked his eyes. "Ohh, ohh." He faced his front without taking a glance at me.I sighed when the door finally opened, they all came out leaving me inside. I was going to the last floor.When it reaches the last floor, the door opened and I came out.I walked to my office first to get the list of his schedule for today before heading to his office.When I took it, I went to his office.I knocked twice before twisting the door knob. I opened and entered his office.He was busy typing on his laptop that he didn't notice i entered his office."Go....""You're late."He interrupted my greetings. And that when he took his gaze from the laptop screen to me.Kathleen povA knock on my bedroom door woke me up early on Saturday morning. I had set my alarm clock to 10 am in the morning so I could get enough sleep when I hardly do during week days. "Kathleen, get up." I heard Lora voice as she entered my bedroom. "Why?" I slurred. "You have an early visitor, that the reason you need to get the fuck up." She said as she walked to the window. Visitor? Who? She spread the cotton allowing the morning the reflection of sun on my face. I quickly took the pillow to block the reflection of sun." Can you stop? ""Your weird friend is here to see, remind me her?" I took the pillow of my face. "Lydia? " Yeah that's lady."She replied. I remembered giving her the address to my place when I got home yesterday. I invited her for lunch not breakfast. "Well she's waiting for you in the sitting room. You should get up and see her before going back to bed. And don't you dare think of sleeping for another hour before going to see her." She said and wal
Jason pov"Come and take sit." I offered when I saw her enter my study she stood at the door.She walked to front of my desk and sat down."The investor coming today, did you reschedule the meetings?" I asked."Not yet, your schedule on Monday is tight and I don't know if you're taking the trip offer to Australia.""Ohh that? I had forgotten about that." I turned on my laptop began type. I wanted to get more information on the trip. I saw it wasn't a meeting with an ordinary investors. It was an important one. History Known by the names "The Honoured Society", L'Onorata Societa or La Famiglia to Italians but more simply as the Mafia to most Australians, the 'Ndrangheta has controlled Italian-Australian organised crime all along the East Coast of Australia since the early 20th century.My family got involved in them when we had business to take care of in Italy. Loranso was the one who pulled off the deal with the Ndrangheta. So we have being partners since then."I am going for the t
Kathleen povI dished out the soup into two bowl and placed it on the counter. Ariel and Jason sat down at the counter waiting for Nina to come try out."Okay, I still don't get it. Why did Kathleen have to prepare soup for Nina to have a taste? Is some kind of recruitment training or what? I thought Kathleen doesn't have any business here so is she here."Ariel asked Jason.Jason avoided her question as he kept on scrolling through his phone.I knew Jason doesn't want Ariel knowing so I kept quiet.Nina walked into the kitchen." Sono qui, signor cavaliere. "Nina said. (I am here, Mr knight) " Siediti e mangia. "Jason Instructed as he placed his phone on the counter. (Sit and eat) She nodded and sat down. I offered her a spoon and she took it. I watched her as she took her first and nodded. "Continue."Jason said. She continued eaten. " Okay if both of you don't want to say anything, I will have the second bowl. "Ariel said and took the second spoon from my hand. Jason didn't s
Kathleen pov"You did have to check the cctv camera to figure that." She walked to me. "You did well, Kathleen." I nodded. "But I shouldn't have lied.""Well don't feel guilty of doing that. It's just a lie, it won't kill you." Ariel said and tapped my shoulder.She walked to the fridge and opened it. "Something smells nice, is it what Nina is cooking?" She asked.Ohh the soupI hurried walked back to where I was cooking."Uhm, Kathleen are you the one cooking?" Ariel asked as she slowly closed the fridge while glancing back at Jason and I."Yeah I am....""It none of your business, Ariel." Jason said, stopping me from explaining to Ariel.She smirked. "You obviously didn't notice, Kathleen now is part of your life whether you want or not" She opened the bottle and drank from it.I glanced at Jason, he was glaring at Ariel. I decided to focus on the soup I was preparing.If this was the reason why he wanted me here, then I wanted to be done with this and leave this house."Where did y
Kathleen pov After having lunch with Jason, I found myself in the kitchen making soup.I can't believe Jason thinks I drugged him. Why on earth would I do so?I began preparing the soup while Jason sat at the down, working with his laptop.Nina wasn't in the kitchen, probably doing something else."Did you see Ariel on your coming here?" Jason asked.I remembered Ariel telling me not to inform Jason that she went out."Uhm," I shook my head. "No I didn't." I started starring the soup vigorously. Hoping he didn't figure that I was lying."Ms snow." Jason called.I stopped starring and held the spoon tight, I turn around to meet Jason gaze on me. "Yes, Mr knight.""Come take a look at my computer screen." He said.What? Why would I do that?I stood at my position without making a move."Don't make me repeat myself, Ms snow." He said, his tone was cold and deep.I nodded. "Yeah sure, I will."I dropped the spoon in a bowl and went to where he sat down." Take a look. "He pointed at the sc
Jason pov "Ms snow." I called. I saw how she spaced out while I was asking her questions relating to the report she sent to me. "Yes Mr knight, did you need anything else relating to the reports?" she asked like she paying attention to me. " You weren't paying attention to what I was saying so don't pretend. You zoned out, do you mind telling me what in your mind?"I asked. She opened her mouth to deny but had a second thought. She did know I knew when she decides to lie. "I was th......" The knock on the door didn't let her finish what she was about to say. "Yeah come in." I said and the door opened. "Signor cavaliere, il suo cibo è pronto nella sala da pranzo." Nina said as she stood at the door. ("Mr knight, your food is set in the dining) "Ci Sanremo." I replied (We will there) Nina nodded and left my study "Food is ready, Ms snow. Let go eat." I stood up from my chair and walked to the door. Kathleen did the same and followed me out of the study. We walked to the di
Jason pov"I want you in my house now." I instructed and hung up.I threw my phone on the bed after I hung up the call.Her soup couldn't be the reason I slept and woke up late right?I shook my head, yeah it can't be.I felt so relieved, it being a long while since I had this feelings. If it was the soup which it couldn't, I did want to know what she had add into it.I went to the bathroom to freshen up and get ready to see Kathleen.After few minutes later, I had freshen up and gotten dressed.What I need now is my breakfast.I went down stairs and saw Kathleen with Nina, she was trying to speak English so Nina could understand.Doesn't she know Nina doesn't understand English, even if she tried it was a waste of time."What going on here?" I asked on my way down the stairs."Ohh uh, it nothing, Mr knight." Kathleen said as she faced my way."Devo prenderle il servizio da pranzo, signore?" Nina asked. (Should I get the dinning set for you, sir?) "Sì Nina, impostalo per due." I re
Kathleen povI haven't seen Jason all morning and I haven't heard from Derek when he left my office to his. I I had to cancel his appointment in the morning thinking he would be late today but not this late. I wanted to call Ariel to check up on Jason but I changed my mind.It was lunch hour and I had made plans to meet up with Lydia for lunch.As I was about leaving, Derek came into my office with a confused look written across his face."Jason isn't in his office, has he being here this morning?" He asked.I shook my head. "Nope not even a call or message from him. I am staring to get worried, Mr Derek."He sighed deeply and shook his head. "I have to hear from Ariel."He brought out his phone from his pocket and dialed ariel's number.She didn't answer the call at first but called back a second."Jason hasn't been to the company this morning, Ariel." Derek informed. And I couldn't hear what her reply. "What? He is fucking sleeping by this time of the day? Are you sure of what you
Kathleen povI arrived at the company three minutes earlier, sure Jason won't be here before me.I went to my office to get Jason scheduled ready for today.I placed my pruse on the desk and went to make a cup of coffee for myself.After making the coffee, I starred it but almost got in on my clothes when I got startled by the knock on my office."Ohh sorry, I didn't mean to startle you like that." Lydia said as she walked into my office."Ohh don't worry, I didn't get my clothes stained." I said and walked to my desk. "Coffee?""Yeah please, I really need it." She said and sat down. I when back to make coffee for Lydia."So how are you doing?" She asked.I nodded. "Am good. You're early today.""I am always early if you haven't noticed it." Lydia said and crossed her legs.I brought the cup of coffee to her and handed it to her."Is Mr knight in his office?" she asked."Nope I don't think so." I replied."Hmm, I kinda of thought he do come early to work everyday.""He is the boss, he
