Chapter 10"I want to resign, She says to him after a long silence, and he raises his gaze to look at her, having an amused and less surprised expression on his face. Not that he didn't see this coming anyway, but there's no way he'll allow her to resign. At least not now. He hasn't frustrated her the way he wants to, so why should he free her? "What did you say?" He asks sarcastically as if he didn't hear her the first time. He just wants her to repeat that before he shocks her with the disappointment of her life. You aren't expecting him to let her resign, right? He started all these purposely, and finishing what he started is the only thing on his mind. "I said I want to resign! I'm sure you heard me when I said that. Do I need to spell it out to you, huh? I want to resign!" She finally loses it, slamming her hands on my desk. She has been trying so hard not to let her anger take over her, but she can't do this anymore. The only thing on her mind now is to piss him off and leave
The day is not yet over and she's already tired of the workload in the office. Just imagine what the rest of her day here will be like. As much as she wants to run away from the company and never return, thinking about Mr. Turner that has been nothing but so good to her, thinking about the trust the man has for her, and the love he had for her while he was still managing the company, she thinks that it'll be unfair to break his trust and leave just like that. "You can do this, Eve. Just trust yourself that you can," She assures herself as she resumes work on her desktop. Of course, she knows that jerk just wants to bully her, she knows that he just wants to frustrate her and make her life in the company miserable, but screw him! Having all her attention on the desktop, she cringe as someone suddenly drops a heap of documents on the desk again. Her face drops sadly when she raises her gaze to see a smirk dancing at the corner of Jayden's lips. Does he want to kill her? She's yet to s
Chapter 12Jayden ClintonDays laterIt has been a couple of days since Eve has been working as my secretary, and all these few days, I am sure I have frustrated her more than enough. I don't know why but for some unknown reasons, I just don't like her. The joy I always have whenever I see that angry look on her face is just too priceless. You won't blame me for doing this, would you? She's crazy and needs to have more manners as a member of this company. She wasn't on her best behavior when I came here, which is why she's going through all of these now. It's fun, anyway. Picking up the office telephone a few minutes later, I put a call through to my annoying secretary, and one minute already passed before she answer the call. "I'm working. What is it now?" Her lazy voice sound through the phone and I roll my eyes. I guess she must've been so tired from the workload on her, but does it look like I care? I mean, what is she paid for, if not to do her job diligently? "Come in," I dro
Chapter 13"I'm not going to a damn meeting on your behalf, Mr Jayden."Evelyn snaps at her inconsiderate boss, who is having fun with ordering her around and getting on her nerves. Jayden crosses his arm over his chest."I'm your boss, Evelyn. I'm paying for your service. Always obey me, I might just sack - ""Sack me."She barks, completing his sentence for him."I don't care. Do your worst. I'm tired of working your butt off for someone like you."He stares down at her, the corners of his mouth curls upwards. He really likes when Eve is mad. He doesn't mind if his attitude towards his sassy secretary can be called "psychotic". He just loves making her mad. It always gives him this inner happiness.Eve lifts her eyebrows, noticing the annoying smile on his face."What the heck Is this funny? Is this funny? Sack me, Mr Jayden."He smirks."I told you the other day. Talk to my father about leaving your job. He is the one who hired you, not me."She shook her head in disbelief. She has rea
Chapter 14Evelyn shut her eyes for a second, maybe it is her weird imagination that is playing tricks on her. When she opens her eyes, he is still there. He is sitting on her couch, in her living room gazing at her with an innocent look. What the heck is Jayden Freaking Turner doing in her house?"Are you done admiring my handsome face? Now, greet me now."His deep voice snaps her out of her train of thoughts. She throws a deadly glare at her."Greet, my foot. What are you doing in my house, Mr Jayden?""Why are you always rude?"He asks her.She folds her arms over her chest, trying not to let her towel fall on the ground."Save that question for another day. Answer my question, first."She watches as he gets up from where he was sitting down, his blue eyes glancing around her living room. Her brows snap together, she detests how he is behaving like a creep. She hates it more that he is in her house. "Who gave you the address to my house?"She questions him, after a few minutes of si
Chapter 15Jayden swallows a gulp down his throat, staring down at her."How will someone like you get me speechless? I was just shocked."He rambles. Evelyn beams a little smile, she knows that her beautiful appearance renders him speechless but he doesn't want to admit it. Of course, he is an arrogant human being.Eve smirks at her boss."Shocked about what? About my beauty, right?"His well-shaped brows snap together."Your beauty, my foot. Whoever told you that you're beautiful is probably deceiving you. Because you are not."He only said that because of his ego but deep down in his mind, he thinks that she looks gorgeous, like the queen of the night. Normally, he has noticed her flawless beauty since he saw her today. But today, she looks more beautiful. She is capable of winning ten beauty pageants at a time, owing to her beauty and confidence."Why is this crazy lady having an effect on me?"He wonders in his mind."She is nothing special, I have seen a lot of beautiful ladies befor
Chapter 16"Good morning sir."Evelyn greets her boss. She is in his office to give him his schedules for the day. "What do you want?"Jayden asks her.He doesn't spare her a glance, his eyes are fixed on the computer in front of him."I am here to hand over your schedule."She mutters gently."Drop it on my desk and leave."He commands, still not glancing at her. Her eyelids drop. She wonders what is wrong with her boss."Are you okay, Mr. Jayden?"She asks him with concern.This time around, he looks at her. He has a blank look on his face, instead of the usual mischievous grin."Do I look like a sick person, Evelyn Jones?"He asks back.Evelyn opens her mouth to say something but closes it back. Why is he acting so cold and different today? Is it because she tells him that she has a crush on Morris Anthony?She starts."I just think that - ""Leave. I'm busy right now."He orders.She nods her head slowly and walks out of his office, still confused about the change in his behavior. May
Chapter 17Emily stares at Jayden in shock. She feels on top of the world, she is so happy that he addresses her as his girlfriend. She didn't know that it would be this easy to win his heart.Mrs. Turner had told her that getting her son is a difficult task. But, lucky her, she is able to make him fall in love with her. She feels like the luckiest lady in the world.Unknown to Emily, Jayden said that to make his secretary jealous, not because he likes her.Jayden tightens his grip on Emily's body, he thinks that the little smile on Evelyn's face will disappear and turn into a slight frown.That is not the case. Instead, the smile on her face becomes wider."Wow!" Marian exclaims. "Congratulations, Mr. Jayden! Your girlfriend is beautiful.""Thank you."Emily blushes."Congratulations, Mr. Jayden!"Evelyn also says, giving her boss a knowing smile.Jayden glares at her, he doesn't like the fact that she congratulated him.Seems like his revenge plan has gone wrong.
