Stay With Me Chapter 10
“So, what are you going to do about this Linda lookalike? Are you going to give her the job?”, Lucas asked, raising an eyebrow.“I don’t think so. I spoke with the interviewers and according to them, she seemed to be quite intelligent and passionate but she isn’t as qualified as some of the others that applied alongside her”.“Does that matter? You’re the boss here. You can pick and hire whosoever you damn well please. Why are you pretending to be modest?”.Calvin rolled his eyes. “I’m only interested in doing what’s right for the company and it doesn’t make any sense to choose her over all the others when she’s the one with the least qualifications”.“That still changes nothing. She’s working directly for you. If she’s so terrible, then you can just easily fire her. If you really need a reason, give her the job because she looks like Linda”, He glanced at his friend’s face and scoffed. “Oh, don’t give me that dirty look. Admit that you’re curious about their uncanny resemblance.

“Perfect”, Melanie whispered as she glanced lovingly at the delicious breakfast she had prepared and finished setting on the dining table.This was a couple of days since the sleepover and she had continued working at the small restaurant as a waitress waiting for a call or an email from the company.Grinning, she knelt on the floor and poured milk into Penny’s bowl and emptied a small can of cat food into the other bowl beside it. Her phone rang as she got up and dusted the lint from her oversized argyle angora sweater and baby blue denim trousers.“Hey, baby”, She said with a smile.“Good morning to you too, babe”, Erin said over the phone.“Shouldn’t you be at work by now?”, Melanie asked, glancing at the grandfather clock that stood in a corner of the living room. “It’s almost 9am”.“I’m there already. Just getting ready fro another day of being stressed out while being ignored by my boss for no reason. After he confronted me the day before about being a 'spy' for his pare

As the deputy CEO of his family’s large company, Calvin had been dreading the dinner that would be had after the stakeholders meeting all day. His palms were sweaty, and his stomach was in knots. He hated these kinds of events- the ones where he was required to schmooze with potential investors and valuable clients, pretending to be interested in their bland conversation while all he really wanted was to go home and lie in bed.But his best friend Lucas had convinced him to come to dinner at a small restaurant they had been to once before, claiming that the food was incredible and the atmosphere was inviting. Calvin trusted Lucas’ judgment, so he reluctantly agreed. Thomas had never had time to visit or had any liking for sugary pastries and tiny restaurants. But on this particular evening, the smell of freshly baked apple pie wafting through the air drew him towards the small restaurant in the downtown area.When they arrived, they were welcomed by the sound of clinking glasses a

Melanie laughed along with her friends who sat around the counter of the little kitchen in her home. “Mel, dear. I think I just saw the mail man drop off some letters in the box. Could you please bring them in?”, Her grandmother's voice came from her bedroom right next to where they were.“Sure, Nana” , Melanie answered and excused herself to go check out what letters had been stuffed violently into their tiny mailbox.As she gathered up the letters, a particular logo on one of the envelopes caught her eye and her breath caught in her throat. It was the logo of the company she had interviewed for over a week ago and was still awaiting a response and though she hadn’t felt much hope, her heart was now viciously pounding against her chest threatening to burst through her body. They had sent her a letter. Did that mean that they wanted to hire her? That had to be why. Companies didn’t send envelopes to applicants to reject them. They could just as easily done it over the phone or i

Melanie had always prided herself on being a hard worker. She had done well in school and had impressed her previous employers with her dedication and efficiency. But there was something about starting a new job that always made her nervous. She had just landed a position as the personal assistant to the deputy CEO of a large corporation and she couldn’t help but feel a little intimidated.As she sat in the boardroom on her first day, listening to the man beside her explain her new duties, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of unease. She had been looking forward to starting this new job, but now that she was here, she wasn’t sure that she was ready for it.That’s when she looked up and locked eyes with a man standing in the doorway. He was exceptionally good looking, with chiseled features and piercing blue eyes. Melanie felt her heart skip a beat as the man stepped into the room and approached her. Her heart began to beat a little faster as she realized that he was the man she had

Maxwell had been in the industry for a long time, a little below two decades and the highlight of his career was when he managed to get Linda Thorne, the daughter and only heir of the Thorne Empire, one of the biggest companies in the country, under him. That had finally gained him his well deserved respect from his superiors in the agency and even in the industry. And it was even better that she was incredible at her job and very quickly climbed up the ranks becoming one of the most sought after models internationally and he had been her agent for over a half of a decade. She had become a renowned name in the industry, and everyone clamored to work with her but only he knew how childish and sometimes self-absorbed she could be.Maxwell’s job was to make sure her schedule was always tight and that she never missed any shoots or events and was always ready and prepared to stun everyone present with her flawless presentation and professionalism.

Erin had always been a hard worker, dedicated to her job and committed to doing her best in everything she did. So, when she accepted the position as Lucas’ new assistant, she had high hopes for the job. After all, she had an impressive resume and had received glowing recommendations from her previous employers.However, her enthusiasm quickly waned when she met her new boss. For one, Lucas was obnoxiously childish, always cracking jokes and making inappropriate comments. Erin found it hard to take him seriously and resented having to work for someone so unprofessional.To make matters worse, Lucas seemed to dislike her just as much. He was constantly questioning her abilities and undermining her authority, making it clear that he had no intention of letting her take charge. Erin knew that she had been hired by Lucas’ parents to keep an eye on him and report back to them, and she suspected that Lucas resented her for it.The hostility between them was palpable from the very beginni

Melanie had just gotten to work and settled on her chair to start checking through urgent emails when the elevator doors opened and a glamorously dressed young woman stepped out into the small hallway. She was tall and slender, with long, wavy blonde hair and piercing blue eyes that seemed to look right through her and Melanie can’t help but feel intimidated by her presence. She rose from her seat as the lady walked towards her and she was stunned when she saw closely how beautiful she was and was even more stunned at the resemblance they shared. The lady seemed taken aback upon seeing her too but she quickly schooled her features and curled her lips into a small smirk as she gave Melanie an obvious once-over and Melanie couldn’t help feeling self-conscious in her navy blue chiffon shirt and black suit pants.“Vinnie must have missed me quite a lot of he felt he had to hire a low budget lookalike to stay at his side everyday”.Melanie couldn’t help the scowl that crept up her face
