Scarlett

I was on my computer busy finalizing everything for the venue the boss would be hosting his meeting when the secretary walked in with a gift bag.

“Me?" I asked.

“Yes. I think you should take it," she said and I just couldn't.

A part of me just had a bad feeling about the things Mr. Gray was giving. I loved being spoiled but not just by anybody.

“Just put it on the table," I said to the secretary, and then looked at it again without the interest of wanting to open it.

I took about thirty minutes to finish what I was doing before a notification popped up on my screen. It was the Boss asking me to go to his office.

I took the gift bag, which had what I had no idea about, and then went there. I at first knocked before he asked me to go in and then greeted me while he faced the other side.

“I hope I didn't disturb you," he said, turning his chair to face me.

“It's OK. Is everything alright?" I asked.

"Yes, everything is fine. I just got a photo of how you've got the venue for

    Scarlett Mr. Gray and I walked into the hall which had so many attendants. I could tell that there were all kinds of wealthy people. Some faces I knew from the fashion world while others I just kept greeting back.Mr. Gray and I sat in the front row while Daniel and Evelyn were three rows behind us. The camera was so focused on us that I could see how uncomfortable Daniel was.“This is wonderful Ms. Brown. I hope you do this for our annual gala," Mr. Gray said.“I'd be honored to Sir," I responded when he looked at me and smiled.The meeting began and everyone was so focused. I kept my eyes on the stage, and when it was Daniel's turn, I just didn't have the time to listen to his disgusting voice.If the camera hadn't been focused on Mr. Gray and me, I would have been scrolling on my phone. Daniel finished what he had to say and the way he was stuttering up there made me wonder how terrible his PA has gotten.His speech was just not that persuasive. We all just clapped our hands and

    Daniel “How dare she?!" I hit my hand on the desk after Mom told me about how Scarlett walked away on her.She can disrespect me but not my mother. AC STUDIO wouldn't have employed her if they didn't know that she was my fiancèe. I'm going to make sure she regrets disrespecting my mother.“What are you going to do son?" Mom asked.“Teach her a lesson. This is Windhoek and we are its rulers. She's going to get what everyone who has messed with us got,” I smirked.I grabbed my blazer and then made my way out to the office while my Mom stayed to finish her coffee. I usually don't listen to the radio, but I turned it on after my PA told me AC’s CEO was busy praising Scarlett.The things I was hearing him say made me almost cancel my day at the office and head to the radio station instead. My chest tightened at the thought of what the media would be releasing next about my family.“Sir what should we do?" the head of my PR team asked over the call.“Intercept everything. Don't allow that

    Scarlett “Do you know that woman?" Mr. Gray asked."I'd prefer not to talk about it," I responded about pulling my seatbelt on when Mr. Gray did it instead.I felt so uncomfortable that he had to apologize. I just kept looking out the window until we got to Zoe's apartment. I could see her peeping through her window.She's such a spy.I didn't even get the chance to open the door because Mr. Gray did it instead. The CEO just opened the door for his employee? Could this be being a gentleman or just me overreacting?I tried so hard to hide my shock but he seemed to have noticed everything. My mood changed. It's like he was sensing me.“Thank you very much sir I—" “Ms. Brown, you don't have to thank me. I'd be honored to be doing this every day. I really enjoyed bringing you home. Have a good night, and let me know if you need anything," Mr. Gray cut me off and then made his way back to the car.Did he just say it every day? No way I was going to save enough to get myself a new car. I

    Scarlett I was sitting in this office with everything one would need. Through its transparent glass, I could see almost everything that was happening. Just pressing the button next to me would send the secretary running inside.This was something I've always wanted but kept sacrificing just to be with Daniel Cross. But now that I'm here I don't even feel his presence or crave to be around him.I was on my computer scrolling down different designs for Mr. Gray's next meeting when a knock sounded on my door.I looked up and asked the person to come in without asking who it was and then placed my focus back on the designs. The person walked in and then stood a few steps away from my desk.“Good morning, Ms. Brown. I hope you're enjoying your first day," I heard Mr. Gray's voice say when I quickly looked up and was about to stand up, but he asked me to sit instead.“No Sir, I can do that later. Would you like me to do something for you?” I asked, deep down, worried about what the disresp

    Daniel I made my way into the lounge where the investors were waiting and found my PA anxiously smiling. I could already tell something wasn't right just by looking at her face. Everyone stood up to welcome me and then took their seats. I looked around the place and it just seemed average. This was nothing like anything Scarlett used to arrange. I looked at my PA and then back at the person who was busy presenting. Everyone finished what they were saying before I stood up and was about to start when a cockroach fell out of my papers. “Oh my goodness, what was that?" everyone in the lounge said before I nervously smiled just to bury the shame, but it didn't work because more was coming. My PA quickly rushed to get it out of sight before I started. I began to read what was written in my speech, but the typing errors just made me stutter in some parts. It was as if it were written by someone who wasn't being paid enough. Time and again, the investors kept clearing their throats wh
