LUNCHTIMEChloe was still editing some files sent to her by Daryl not long after she had left Zach's office.Both of her friends walked inside, they knew if they didn't come to her instead she would miss lunchtime.They both watched how she tapped on her system so concentrated and effortlessly."Who would have known that the popular rich spoilt princess is this focused when working?" Carries joked while Sarah hit her arms."We are her friends so we shouldn't join the group that says those words to her," Sarah corrected."Friends shouldn't talk behind one's back and that is why I am saying it so she can hear us," Carrie retorted with an eye roll.Sarah couldn’t help but smile at the great changes Chloe had made within the few months.“Hello workaholic, it's time for lunch.” Carrie tapped on her desk thrice so she would get her lost attention. Even though they had been bickering for a while now, that didn't attain her interest.“I will join you guys soon so you should go have lunch wit
“Yay," Chloe stretches upward trying to crack some bones to relieve her stiff bone.Finally done with her job, she picks up her phone to see it's 1 am already and several missed calls from Zach.”Oops my phone was on silent so I could..” Her words were left hanging when she stood from her seat only to be met with an angry figure standing by her office door which made her screech so loud that her heart almost jumped out of her chest.“Hey! Don’t scare me that way!” she warned as she held her heart thanking God. Her life flashed through her eyes seconds ago.“Why are you here?” she asked when she regained herself.She packed her things ready to go home, but Zach didn’t reply and just glared hard at her.He had sent her a few messages when it was 8 pm to go home and let the work wait till the next day not knowing she didn’t read his message.His meeting ended around midnight and only then did he check his phone to see countless messages from Hanna telling him she wasn’t home yet.He sen
Chloe was immersed in arranging the files until she heard a clicking shoe sound sauntered into her office.“What are you doing?” came in a sneaky voice.Chloe scoffed, still arranging her file she responded.“Does it seem like I am dancing right now?” "Well, I thought you were already having your things in your box, guess you haven't gotten the news yet." She let out and this piqued Chloe's interest.“Just know your position isn't that strong anymore,” Clarrissa said and walked out of her office leaving her in confusion. Chloe knew Clarrissa's bluff so much but for her to leave her position to notify her of this knowing what it can cost made her feel kind of weird. But Chloe hardly cared, she went into Zach's office only to see his whole office destroyed“Wh.. What.. is going on?” She asked in a panic. Daryl whose head was bowed in fear, now glared at her. “I should ask you what the fuck you did? Our secret plot was let out. How come? You were the last person with the deal”C
“Why am I the one getting fired?” Chloe retorted at Daryl not caring that Zach is the boss.Every soul here did get scared of him and would mind their speech around the company.“Chloe, he is the boss, stop talking.” Carrie pulled the sleeve of Chloe's shirt, in fear.Daryl snickered at this and shook his head, “No, I am addressing them, and not you,” Daryl signaled to the marketing team.“Why? It isn't their fault he should be the one to be reprimanded,” Chloe defended, and this annoyed Bros,“Hey, little spoiled bitch! Don't talk when…” His words were barely out when he received a punch in his face.“Carrie!” Chloe called in an alarm at her action.Carrie was also taken aback, seeing the damage she had caused already before she knew it."Oh, you used the wrong words. I hated that I couldn't control my hands," Carrie conceded.Bros wanted to attack her, he wanted her to pay for what she had just done but he couldn't in fear of his boss who was standing right there.Zach just stood t
Chloe on her normal routine picked a few sweet things and left for the office before Zach could be out of his room.She was mad he didn't want to release her."Chloe you can't leave without a.." Chloe already ran out before Hannah could finish her words.Hannah just sighed and packed her breakfast, seeing she wasn't going to take her breakfast today.Chloe got her normal stop and just on cue, Sarah was there already. "Good morning." Chloe's voice chimed but when she looked inside the car but couldn't find Carrie."Well she went to the office early this morning saying she needs to sort some things out, we are both really grateful to have a rich friend." Sarah teased.Chloe snorted at this, "A rich girl with no car, common."Sarah smiled and drove toward their company.Chloe got to her office only to see the way chitty glances were thrown her way, but she couldn't care less about it. She smirked at Clarissa, who seemed not to know what her fate would be today.Chloe opened her office d
They all alighted from their various rides and held onto one another. They might be from the middle class but not that rich to come to a place like this.Chloe was the only one who didn't feel awkward.“Let's go, they aren't going to act badly to you when they know you all came with me.Chloe boasted, and then Carrie pulled her back.“I get it that I call you rich kid always, but recall your..” Chloe glared at her, shutting her up.“Why do you derive pleasure in reminding me of my pain?” Chloe asked and they all laughed out loud. They got to the entrance of the restaurant, and the bouncer immediately recognized her. He bowed and they all walked inside.Though her father might be facing some kind of challenges, that didn’t affect his reputation that much, he still needs to show some respect to her if he doesn’t want to lose his job.He had heard a lot about the infamous Chloe Thomas.“Wow! I have always heard of this.. and it is so..”“Ethereal!” Kendrick breathed out, admiring and t
A slap resounded around the room, making everyone tight-lipped.“How could you mess this up? We are this close to reaching our goal!” Natalia's voice boomed in the room.It was quiet and they could tell how mad she was, rather than uttering the word that would increase her rage.“And you?” she directed at Clarrissa who just kept shuddering under Natalia's gaze.If she could slap Bros that way she wondered what Natalia could do to her.“Now he knows about Aiden getting hold of his deal before him, he would be able to create another design before then and…” “Ha!” she screamed again, irritated, and kicked Bros again.Carter rushed forward stopping Natalia.“Relax sis, instead of fuming now let's find another way, It's only if we can ruin his company that he wouldn't be able to take over…”“Stop!” She glared at Carter who finally understood the reason why he said those“It's all because of that bitch Chloe! She made him fire me,” Clarrissa explained.Aiden looked up from where he sat fee
Chloe sat in the living room for the first time since lives here browsing through her phone with a big smile on her face.Hannah can’t help but watch her with great enthusiasm, “Did you make new friends today?” Chloe looked up at Hannah and nodded her head with a smile.“They are very nice and playful,” She admitted, still excited.“Where is Zach by the way?” She finally asked, recalling she hadn’t seen him for a while, ever since the fight she hadn’t bothered to call or talk to him.“He didn't call to tell where he will be going,” Hannah answered and Chloe just nodded her head.“Fine, I will just chill here,” she said and Hannah bid her good night.She checked her phone for his message but didn't see any text, she felt sad not seeing his message.She had expected him to get mad at her when she got home but weirdly she didn’t meet at home so she planned to stay in the living room.Just on cue he walked in but doesn’t seem to be in the mood for her to bother him.Well, for her, she bar
