CHAPTER 5: Backfire

CHAPTER 5

I set an alarm to wake up for tomorrow because I noticed that Farris don't like late comers. Like what I've said I'm gonna do this work perfectly for the money because I doesn't have it. But it doesn't mean that I won't do anything bad anymore. 

I'm still planning on making that man miserable! After what he did in the fountain? He didn't even help me that night! Instead of asking me if I'm okay he firstly asked his stupid dog! And it was annoying the hell out of me!

I wake up with the alarm next morning. I chose what I will wear today and chose a spaghetti strap top and tight skirt. I put cardigan to cover me up. I look at my reflection in the mirror. I raised my brows. My beauty is really splendid. I can't help but to compliment myself.

The driver drove me off to the company and like usual I gave a grand entrance. When I arrived at the right floor I was about to open Farris' office but a familiar girl block me. My brows furrowed.

It's the girl I asked yesterday.

"What?" I asked with my obvious irritation. Why is she blocking me?

"A-Ahm...Chairman Adamson is inside. He...told me to stop anyone who would enter the office. And...I just want to inform you that this one will be your table and the things you needed to do your work," she explained. 

I looked at the table she was pertaining. I raised my brows when I saw how small the cubicle is. It's just near to Farris' office but I can't be comfortable with it! It's so small!

"You think I can work to that? Look how small it is! I'm sure I can't even stretch my legs there!" I complained and she was like a dog being scolded by its owner. 

"B-But...Sir Farris just...told me that," she said.

My jaw clenched. That guy is really pissing me off. 

I was about to shout curses on her when someone talk behind me.

"Miss Hepburn?" It was Chairman Adamson. I wanted to smile at him but Farris presence makes me irritated.

"It's nice to see you again Chairman," I greeted even though my mood isn't pleasant. I looked at Farris and I saw him smirking evilly. 

"Is there something wrong Millijay?" Chairman asked. I immediately nodded even though I'm so eager to tell it to him but the respect for a chairman stopping me. 

I'm bad to anyone but when it comes to this old man I can't help but to pay some respect.

"I hope you're enjoying your summer job here! You should get to know my son!" He said and laughed like santa claus. I winced at his statement. What did he meant by that? 

My eyes went to Farris and for some reason he's also looking at me like he's watching me how I act with his father. 

What does he think of me? I'm gonna kick his father's ass? Or throw sarcastic words? Tss.

"I'm gonna leave now okay? Good luck with your work," the old man said and left with his men behind him. 

Now I left alone with Farris. I raised my brows when he turned his back on me and entered his office. I followed him there because it's early in the morning and he's pissing me off!

"Farris!" I called him but he continued sitting on his chair and opened his laptop like he didn't heard anything.

I walked near at his table and put down my both hands over it. I hit the table with my hands to caught his attention. There. He stopped typing at his laptop and looked at me with his dagger eyes.

"What do you want?" He asked, irritated.

"Of all the table and cubicle out here you'll gonna give me the smallest one?" I said with my high tone. I can feel the urge on me to shout in front of his face!

"I don't have a choice. That's the only available-"

"That's bullshit! How come this successful and large company have a shortage of tables? Are you kidding me?" I asked almost ballistic. But he just remained cold and serious.

Fuck him!

"That's the truth. If you don't want it you can sit on the floor," he said mercilessly. If I can just slap him hard right now...I fucking will!

How dare him offer me to sit in the fucking floor?!

"Why don't you try it first-"

"I'm the son of the owner of this company and also the CEO and you're just a secretary. Isn't it unappropriate for me to sit on the floor?" He said and for some reason he surveyed my body and back to my face. His eyes are insulting me! He even smirk after he surveyed me!

"It's more suitable for you to sit on the floor," he said and grin evilly. 

My blood is boiling and I can feel my head heating up! Darn him! I am suitable on the floor?! He's telling me that I'm not that beautiful to complain like this! I know that it is the message he wants to tell me!

"Just...fuck you!" I shouted and walked out because if I don't walk out right now I might slap him hard and won't be able to stop myself.

I ended up sitting on my small cubicle. I can't believe that this is happening to me! That arrogant CEO is really trying me! He...is worst than me! Heartless cunning man! I hate him so much!

I almost throw the things on my table. I almost flip the table! I am so stress out here! If I just don't need money! If I just...darn everything!

I was just sitting the whole time and when lunch time came the intercom suddenly beep and Farris' voice came in. 

"Give me my lunch," he said. I raised my brows.

"Why are you commanding me?!" I said irritated. I heard him chuckled evilly.

"You're my secretary remember? I thought you'll act like one?" He asked in a mocking tone. I baled my fist and almost destroy the intercom. He is trying to damn insult me! 

"Fine! Where can I get your fucking lunch?!" 

He laughed.

"This is my first time having a secretary who curses her boss," he said that made me scowled. He think it's funny? Why is he laughing when he supposedly to be serious! He's making fun of me! I know!

"Just tell me and don't make fun of me! I'm in a very bad mood!" I shouted. I think the other employee is also listening because my voice is too loud to ignore.

"My food is in the cafeteria. Make it faster," he said and turned off the intercom. 

I can feel how my nose blowed fire while looking at his door's office. I didn't imagine that it will happen to me! I didn't imagine that...there will be a person who can control me like this! I am damn annoyed!

With my heavy foot steps I went to the cafeteria and ordered for his food but while walking back to his office a very brilliant idea came up to my mind.

I smirked evilly. This is damn exciting!

I sneaked in to the coffee room and seek for a powder of coffee when I fount it out I opened it and put some powder on his drinks. I also put sugar on his rice and salt in his dish. I am laughing evilly while doing all these things.

I can't help but to imagine his face while eating these food! I can imagine him spitting the food and turned out a volcano who is about to erupt! Goddamn it! It will be so fun!

I exitedly exited the room and went to his office. Like usual I didn't knock and just barged on his office. I smiled at him the moment he looked at me walking near him.

"Are you that shameless and you didn't even have a decency to knock? You're doing it all the time!" He said irritably.

"Why? You're afraid that I might caught you doing something weird here?" I asked with my mocking yet sexy tone. His brows furrowed.

"Something weird? What are you talking about?!" He asked with his brows connected to each other. He's really pissed right now.

"You know something...sexy and dirty?" I asked maliciously. The way his brows furrowed it's telling me that I'm talking nonsense. His eyes went darker and...hotter?

"I always do it on my room or while I'm showering and not in my office," he said without taking his eyes off me. My eyes widened at his words! Damn it!

"Damn you! It's too much information!" I shouted in anger and put his foods on his table angrily.

"You seems curious that's why," he shrugged and started taking out the utensils. I smirked in the back of my mind. I can't wait to see him puking and spitting his foods.

I watched him arranging his foods with a smirk plastered on my face that's why when he looked at me with brows furrowed I immediately went serious.

"What are you still doing here?" He asked seriously. 

Wait. Do I supposedly leave his office when he eat?

"Well...nothing," I said and shrugged and about to turned my back disappointed that I won't be able to see his ridiculous face when he eat the food he suddenly called my name.

"Millijay," he called. I immediately turned to him and smile.

"Why?" I asked with my cheerful voice. I saw confusion and seriousness on his face. He signaled me to come near him so I did what he told me to do. I am now standing in front of him but I stopped when he handled me the spoon. 

I suddenly felt nervous.

"You're not eating yet right? You can have a bite first," he urge me. My eyes widened and swallowed hard. W-What? 

"N-No! You...can eat it by yourself! I'm not yet hungry!" I refused and shook my head.

Damn it! I didn't know that he is this generous to offer his food to his employee? What the hell?!

"Since we're arguing all these time, we can be good at each other and it will be a good start isn't it?" He said politely and offer his spoon again.

What the hell is happening to him?! Did he suddenly bump to a wall the reason why he turns out to be a good man? Or am I just imagining things?

"Farris-"

"Eat it," he said in a commanding tone. I stopped and swallowed hard. How could I eat it when I put something else there!? But...is it true that...he's going to be a good man now? Are we going to compromise and be good at each other? Why am I feeling so thrilled? What the hell Millijay?!

I stared at the food and bit my lower lip. I would never eat that food-

"You can't eat it because you put something else there right?" He asked that made me stop.

I looked at him and I saw him smirking evilly.

No way...did he know it all this time? And here I am...thinking that I can wrap him around my fingers...but he's just fucking playing with me!

"You knew?!" I asked angrily. I can feel my head heating up. I can feel my hands itching for a slap. I wanna slap him so hard! Damn it!

"I'm not dumb to not realize it," he said and put all the foods on the plastic and throw it in the trash can. My breathing is so heavy because I can feel my defeat again. Why am I always a loser when it comes to him?

"I hate you," I said with my visible hatred for him. He raised his brows and loose his tie.

"I am the one who should hate you Millijay because you're always ruining my day," he said coldly. I felt pain on my chest. I gritted my teeth. This is my first time hearing those words being thrown at me.

"You're also ruining my day asshole!" I spat. I can feel my blood boiling. I am so humiliated and embarrassed!

I didn't step back when he walked near me and become almost inches apart in each other. 

"Your stupid plan and nonsense tricks are useless to me, remember that. If you feel that I'm being harsh to you then be my guess and leave me out alone," he said and went back to his chair.

I can't move. I have this feeling that something is stabbing me from behind. And it's painful. Don't be affected Millijay. Don't show your weakness and be strong all the time. I clenched my jaw and looked at him. He's now typing something on his laptop.

"I won't leave you alone until you're exhausted and tired Farris! I'm gonna ruin you! I'm gonna make you miserable! Remember that!" I shouted so angrily and walked out.

I can feel my vein on my head protruding because of so much anger. But when I left his office my knees wobbled and my chest bled in pain without any reason. Or I just don't know the reason why...that man affects me so much.
