My Boss Is Clueless

I made my way up to the Fifteenth story of Adams Corp. I was nervous as this was the most important day of my life. It was my first day as the new assistant of Ivan Lewis Adams. New York's most eligible bachelor who also happened to be the CEO of this prestigious company. As the elevator started to move, I felt ill.Don't get me wrong. I was extremely excited about the opportunity. I was somehow selected among the most competitive and attractive group of people with extremely high qualification. Anyone would kill to have this job. I am a fortunate woman. However, the main reason for my discomfort was that I'd be working closely with Ivan Adams.The man

I ran home. Okay, not literally. I hopped inside a cab and told him to drive faster. I can't believe I totally embarrassed myself in front of my boss. "I'm back!" I yelled after arriving at the apartment. No answer. Mark must've left already. I felt bad for him. Poor guy must be tired of my bullshit. I decided just to sit down and watch TV. I turn on the entertainment news channel, and there he was, Mr. Boss man, right there inside the TV screen looking dashing as always. Seriously? It's like I can't escape him. He is on TV too. But why was he on TV?

I quietly worked on some paperwork for the meeting that would take place later in the day. Ivan's mother was supposed to visit the office today, which put him on edge. They don't exactly have a close mother and son relationship. I don't understand why because she was a delightful person. She always treated me like I'm her daughter. Not to mention she was incredibly beautiful. Beauty must run in that family.I went to his office when his mother arrived to let him know. I tried to leave after announcing her arrival, but he stopped me midway. "No, stay here with me," he said, almost desperately.

"I am sorry, Ivan, I must've misheard you. I thought I heard you say you were hitting on me," I said and smiled awkwardly. "You heard correctly. I think you are gorgeous, so I want to offer you a chance to be my woman," he said with a straight face. "I didn't realize you had such a great sense of humor, but haha, you got me," I said. "I am not joking. I never joke about things like these. I have been very pleased with you these past couple of

The next couple of days were spent following him around and then going sightseeing. I helped him with the conference during the day, and in the evening, I was free to do whatever I wanted. I was having a great time shopping.I confronted Ivan about the roses, but he just kind of shrugged. "I told you I was going to keep trying. I meant every word I said," he said.This man is infuriating.
