Mila's POV
"Wow! girl you are Jealous." Alice teased through the phone. I had narrated everything that happened to her and once again, I was regretting it.
"No, I am not. It is so unprofessional if you ask me. You should see how that woman was dressed she doesn't fit the corporate world." I said with detest.
"Well, it is Bentley that determines who is fit and who is unfit. Anyway, when am I seeing you? You are such a busy woman."
"You can't blame me, I need the money, and the only way to get it is to work. Now if you will excuse me, I need to work on some documents and emails before going to bed. I will call you tomorrow."

"Okay sure, but let me know whether you will go to the party with me tomorrow so I can come and pick you up

She questioned confused as to why she giggled."I am not calling about that ma'am.

There were loud applauds from his board of directors showing how impressed they were with the project plans I presented. Yes, the same people that looked down on me and said all sought of hurtful things about me the last time I was here are the same people celebrating me. I don't blame them though I personally would have been upset if someone presented dirty coffee-stained papers to me."Thank you Mr. Monnet.""You are welcome. I am so glad that I gave you another chance and may I say you never disappointed me. I would like to therefore apologize for my behavior the last time you were here.""Oh Sir, it's nothing.
