CHAPTER 22; JESSIE

REAH'S POV 

I came back to my seat, feeling down and weak from within. "What's wrong? Did he reject it again?" Even Fryster felt like something was wrong. 

I nodded my head "He broke the cup again," I replied and he gasped. "I guess he doesn't really want me as his Secretary," I replied. 

Fryster had a sad expression on his face as he shook his head "Could it be that you were recommended to him by someone?" He asked and my eyes twitched. 

Thinking of recommendation, I was indeed recommended by someone but could it be the reason he hated me so much?

"I was recommended by Luna Bella, Alpha Xavier's mother," I replied and Fryster's eyes widened. 

"You know Luna Bella?!" He seemed very shocked. 

"Yes, quite well. She's like a mother to me," I replied sincerely and he closed his eyes. 

"Then, You are the goddess of this company. To be loved by Luna Bella is to be loved by the moon goddess. You are so lucky!" Fryster had totally forgotten about what we were talking about, he had forgotten about the topic that brought us here. 

He continued talking about how Luna Bella was loved by everyone. He talked about when she was still younger and her husband, Alpha Xavier's father was still alive. He even talked about her occupation back then which was modeling. 

He was just like a fanboy and the look on his face made me want to laugh. 

After talking to Fryster for so long, my mood felt a lot better and I was no longer thinking about what Alpha Xavier did to me. I just listened to him, laughed and contributed to some things. 

After a while, he seemed to observe that my mood was a lot better and he stopped, only then did I realise he only went into details because he wanted me to cheer up. Everything he's been saying was just to make me stop thinking and that warmed my heart. 

"Should we continue the training?" Fryster asked with a sparkling smile. 

"I'm all ready!" I replied cheerfully and he chuckled. 

He continued the lectures about how to be a good Secretary and soon, he placed two books in my hand "You should read these. They will help you a lot," He told me. 

I opened the books and just from their first pages, I knew they would discuss extensively how to be a perfect Secretary which made me happy. I had always loved to read though so getting two different books didn't faze me at all. 

Fryster crossed his arms and closed his eyes "That will be all for today. Your training will go on for a month and after that, You will start your Secretary's work properly. Do you understand?" He imitated the tone of a strict teacher which made me want to laugh. 

I nodded my head instead and started reading the first book. It was already late in the afternoon and I was feeling a bit hungry but according to Fryster, we had to wait for Alpha Xavier to give us the go-ahead first which he always did early but for some reason, he hadn't told us anything even though it was past 2 in the afternoon. 

Soon, I heard footsteps coming closer and I raised my eyes to see who it was. It was a lady in a short black gown that hardly covered her private part. She wore heels, increasing her height and her face was thickly designed. Her bright skin made her look like a goddess but the aura around her made me feel a bit disturbed. 

She walked over with her head held high and stood in front of me. "Are you the new Secretary?" Her tone was high, it was as if I was being interrogated by the madam and If anyone was supposed to be the madam, that should be me!

I stood up and revealed a professional smile "I am," I replied. 

Fryster also stood up and moved closer to me "That's Jessie, an actress and the female lead of the ongoing drama that Alpha Xavier is leading," He whispered in my ears and my eyes twitched. 

I looked at the lady properly and only then did I recognize her. I wasn't that big of a fan but I'd loved watching her dramas. 

"Oh?" She said dismissively and looked toward Alpha Xavier's office. "Is your boss in?" She asked and I nodded. 

"Do you want to see him? He seems busy right now," I replied and a frown settled on her face 

"Do you mean I can't see her?" She asked, her anger and arrogance made me feel a bit suffocated. 

I sighed "That's not what I said. I will go ask him first," I said and moved away from my seat but before I got to her, she already started moving. 

She looked at me and rolled her eyes "You are a big fool," She said arrogantly and walked toward the office. 

I tried running after her only for Fryster to hold back my hand "Don't go. Just let her be," He said and I frowned. 

"Won't Alpha Xavier scold us for that?" I asked. 

Fryster shook his head "She would be the one scolded for barging inside the office. You don't need to bother yourself with that," He replied. 

"Oh?" Hearing that, I walked back to my seat and sat down. 

We watched Jessie knock on the door several times but there was no response. She continued knocking but no one replied from inside and she seemed frustrated. She turned to look at me but I quickly looked away, ignoring her. 

Fryster ignored her too and instead, he started explaining some things inside the first book to me. 

After half an hour, Jessie walked over, making a distracting noise with her heels and stood in front of my desk "Can you let him know that I'm here?" She asked arrogantly. 

I looked at her and cocked my head to the side. I wished I could just insult her back but I stopped myself when I remembered what Fryster told me earlier *You should always meet every client and guest with a smile,*

"Okay," I said and stood up. 

I walked over to the office and knocked "Come in," I heard the usual cold voice from inside and opened the door. 

I entered the office and walked toward him "Sir, Lady Jessie is waiting outside. Should I let her in?" I asked. 

"Yes," He replied with his eyes closed. 

I left the office and returned to mine, "You can go in," I told her and she rolled her eyes at me before she left. 

I walked over to my seat and shook my head "Watching her dramas, you would think she's a perfect woman. Who would have thought she's so rude?"

Fryster chuckled "Talking about perfect, You fit more into that term than her, really. Jessie is not even as beautiful as you are even though she is a werewolf,"
