I hurried downstairs with my file.
"Good morning, Cait!" uncle wished me smiling.
"Good morning, uncle!"I wished him back.
"Come, let's have breakfast. I have made your favourite, pasta," he said smiling.
"Uncle, I am not hungry," I said looking down.
"Cait..." he was saying when I interrupted him, "Uncle, I should hurry and go. This is the last interview and I am so nervous about it."
He sighed and came to me, "Cait, this job is not up to your qualification. Why do you need to do a job now? You can wait for the perfect job and take it. Till then I am here." he said seriously.
I have been giving interviews for about two weeks but did not get a single job and today is the last interview for a personal secretary. I have to soon pay Ronnie my first instalment. And I can't tell uncle about it. I really need a job!
"Uncle, I want to do a job so that I get some experience. That's it!"I said trying to convince him.
"Ok, Cait. Then just eat something and then go," he said pointing to the food on the table.
"Uncle, I am not hungry. Really. I will eat something at the cafe. Please, uncle, let me go."I said with my innocent face.
"Ok. But you will eat and won't get sad no matter what is the result of the interview," he said.
"Yes, uncle. Promise."I said hugging him and placing a kiss on his cheek.
Then his gaze went to my wrist, he looked at me and asked, "Cait, where is your watch?"
What should I tell him now? I knew that he will ask me this when he notices my empty wrist, and so there is his question.
"That...its battery is dead so...."I lied.
"Oh..that's the reason you are not wearing your lucky watch. Give it to me, I will get a new battery for it while coming back from the office." he said.
"Noooo...I mean, you don't have to worry about it I will get it fixed."I said, and continued, "Uncle, I should go now. Can I go?"
"Ok. All the best," he said smiling. "Thank you, uncle. Bye."I said and hugged him.
I hurried to my car and went straight to the office. I am so nervous. This is the last interview. If I don't get a job here then I don't know what I will do. I have to get this job no matter what.
"Hello! I am here for the interview."I said to the receptionist.
"Your name, please?" she asked with a professional smile.
"Caitlin Snow, "I said with a week smile.
"You can go in. Sir is waiting for you," she said and signalled a woman standing a few feet away.
Waiting for me???? I am not late, am I??? Oh no, what should I do???
She came and said, "This way, please." I looked at her and she smiled at me.
Then I followed her to the lift, we went to the top floor.
There was no one there for the interview. Am I early or late?? Now, this is making me more nervous!!
"There's no one here for the interview?"I asked her tensely.
"Oh. That...Sir told everyone to go away just by hearing their names. Maybe you can get the job, he mentioned that he will only meet with a girl named Caitlin. So, I think you got the job. All the best. Just go in." she said pointing to the door.
I went near the door confused. What does this mean? Did he tell everyone else but why? Does he want to meet only to the girl named Caitlin? What is this? Does he know me?
I took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
"Come in."Someone said from inside.
I went in. I want to know who is he, but he was standing with his back to me.
"Sit down," he said.
This voice seems familiar. I sat on the chair looking at him.
"This is my resume." I said keeping my file on the table.
"Your name?" he asked still with his back to me.
"Caitlin Snow "I replied confused.
"You got the job. Congratulations!" he said still not turning around.
"What???"I said out loud.
How can I get the job? He didn't ask anything nor did he see my resume. Who is he?
He laughed out loud and turned around to see my expression.
Why is he laughing?
When I saw who he was I realised who he is. The shock was the only thing I can feel. Then, I got nervous for a reason.
"Hello! Caitlin Snow! We meet again." he said with a smirk.
"Ronnie!!!"My voice was just a whisper.
What is this? He is my boss? I am going to be his personal secretary????? Hell no!!!!!
"Water?" he asked me with an amused smile.
I nodded and he handed me the glass. I drank in a go. It's really shocking and hard to wrap all these thoughts around my head.
"Who are you?"I asked, my voice just a whisper.
"You don't know my full name?? Never mind. I am Ronnie Raymond. The owner of this company. The heir of the biggest and largest businesses empire." he said with a smirk.
He is the owner of this company??? It means...he is my new boss??? This is more than shocking. I drank the remaining water left in the glass.
"So, you are going to be my new boss?"I asked when I finally got my voice back.
"Yes. But, on one condition," he said.
This is making me nervous! He has a condition!
"And what is it?"I asked nervously.
"You will have to become my personal slave too," he said with a smirk.
WHAT???????
HIS SLAVE??????
HELL NO??????
Ronnie's POV :Brrr...brrr...My phone vibrated for the seventh time now. I looked at my phone. It's Cait!! Why is she calling me? I told her that I will be in a meeting then why does she keep calling me? I think I should take her call..."Sir, what do you think about this proposal?" someone said. I looked at him confused. I wasn't listening to anything and was just staring at my phone.I sighed."Excuse me for a second."I said getting up from my chair.I went to the corner of the room. My phone started vibrating again. It must be something urgent otherwise why will she keep calling me when she knows that I am in a meeting.I answered her call."Hello!!! Ronnie!!!" Cait said."Yes, love!!!"I said tensed.She is calling me Ronnie instead of Ron or the nicknames she uses lovingly, it means she is angry.
Ronnie's POV :I ring the doorbell for the third time now. Why isn't she opening the door? Yes, our one month is over but that doesn't mean she can neglect to open the door. I sighed and took out my key to unlock the door. I opened the door and went inside."Caitlin!! Caitlin!!"I called out getting in.She isn't answering. Maybe she decided to come late as she is no longer my slave.I sat on the couch smiling. Keys!!! I lift the keys lying on the coffee table...it's the keys that Cait used to have. Why are these keys here? Did she forget them?I kept the keys back on the table. Paper!! What's this paper? I took the paper and opened it. It looks like a note.I read it...Ronnie...our one month is finally over. I have paid back for your watch's repair. You have given my watch back to me. Now, I am not your personal slave anymore and we don't have anything to do with each o
Caitlin's POV :"Master, your coffee." I said.He looked at me and took the coffee mug from me. I turned to go to my room to finish the remaining packing that I have been doing since yesterday night. One month got over yesterday night and now I feel like only crying because I have to leave him."Caitlin!" he said.I turned to look at him surprised. He called me Caitlin at home!!"You don't have to call me master from now on, one month is over and the agreement too." he said. I nodded.He took out my watch from his pocket and said, "Here. Your watch." He gave me the watch and said, " I have treasured it like you used to."I nodded looking at the watch. I feel I am gonna break...all my ties with him are breaking one by one."So, I will leave first for the office." he said getting up from the couch."Ronnie! Will it be ok if I am a little late today?"I asked h
Caitlin's POV :"Bella, take this too. Why aren't you eating? I have all these prepared especially for you."Ronnie said to Bella."Ron, I am really full." she said smiling."No, you have to eat some more." saying this he grabbed the spoon from her plate and scooped food with the spoon."Here, open your mouth!" he said smiling."No, Ron, please." she said smiling."Bella, please, for me." he said and she sighed and took the bite."You are still like a kid." he teased her and both of them started laughing.They are so perfect and happy together. My heart hurts a lot. I wish it was me in her place, but I know that's never gonna happen, he loves only her. I feel like crying...but, I can't cry in front of them."Hey, Caitlin, why aren't you eating anything?" she asked me suddenly.I looked at her surprised."I am eating."I replied forcing a smile.
Ronnie's POV :"That's it." I said.She sighed.I gave her the list of things that she has to make tomorrow. I usually don't care what is made for Bella for her dinner except that it shouldn't have peanuts. My chefs make dinner what they want to make or what Bella tells them to. But, today I am doing this just to make Cait jealous. And I guess it's working because she seems irritated."I will go and get the groceries for tomorrow." she said getting up from the couch."I will also come with you."I said and got up too.I want to go with her not just because I will get a chance to make her jealous but also because I can spend some more time with her and also know what she likes. She will buy what she likes too, right?"You don't have to come. I will bring everything." she said irritated."No, I want to come too."I said and continued, "Let's go."
"That's it." he said. I sighed. He gave me the list of food that I have to make tomorrow and also gave all the instructions that I have to follow while making food for her like, she likes spicy food and that she has an allergy to peanuts. He knows her so well. I am kind of jealous. "I will go and get the groceries for tomorrow."I said getting up from the couch. "I will also come with you." he said and got up too. I looked at him surprised. He wants to come for grocery shopping!! It's the first time he wants to come along. Is this because I am going for buying Bella's dinner? What is she to him that he wants to come for grocery shopping too? What's their relationship? "You don't have to come. I will bring everything."I said irritated. "No, I want to come too." he said and continued, "Let's go." I sighed. He won't listen to me instead I have to do as he tells me
