Maya possesses a strong admiration for fashion and had conducted some research on the boutique (Company), but neglected to do the same for the CEO.
Shortly after, there was a knock at Mr. Tony's door. "Come in," he bellowed in a deep voice. The security guard opened the door and informed Mr. Tony of the arrival of the "crazy lady." Mr. Tony chuckled and replied, "Let her in. She's my wife, after all," he continued to chew on the end of his pen.
The security guard escorted Maya into the room, and upon entering, she froze. Mr. Tony inquired, "What's wrong with her?" glancing at both Maya and the security guard. The security guard was unaware of any issues and exited the room, closing the door behind him.
Mr. Tony was captivated by Maya's beauty, particularly her red lips. He found himself fixated on them, imagining what it would be like for her to use them in a certain way under his desk (blowjob).
"Good morning, sir" she greeted Tony.
"I woke up tired this morning, and a call came into my payphone. My secretary was the one talking," Tony replied, looking a bit exhausted.
"Oh really? What did your secretary say to you?" Maya inquired while placing some documents on Tony's desk.
"That someone is claiming to be my..." Tony tried to explain, but Maya interrupted him, saying, "Hold on a second. Why I'm I speaking with you? I demand to see the CEO of this company, and not some guy who constantly chews on pens..! Who are you? The head of the security or what?" Maya retorted, failing to recognize Tony as the CEO of the company.
Tony chuckled and put the pen down, deciding to continue playing with Maya a bit longer. "You got me, I'm actually the head of security. But I'm curious, why are you so eager to see the CEO? Is he really your husband like you've been claiming?" he asked with a mischievous grin.
Maya brushed off his question, saying, "That's a personal matter, so let's change the topic."
"Fair enough. How about we get to know each other better then?" Tony suggested, resting his elbow on the desk, staring with seductive gazes.
Maya wasn't pleased with his lack of hospitality, "You haven't even offered me a drink or coffee yet, and who do you think you are to ask me about myself? You have no right to know anything about me."
Tony laughed once more and picked up his pen. This time he started sketching something while staring at Maya, amused by her feisty attitude. It seemed likely that Maya's resistance to Tony wouldn't last long. His charming look was turning her on by each passing second.
She felt like jumping into his arms for a quick round, but she was scared of it.
Maya decided to stir up some drama with Mr. Tony in order to shift the atmosphere between them. She hoped that by starting an argument, she could distract herself from his charms.
However, she didn't find anything to argue about, except for Tony's constant staring.
Frustrated, Maya confronted him, "What's with all the staring? Is there something you want to say?" she asked, her tone laced with anger.
Tony decided to get to the point, "Let's stop beating around the bush. What do you really want?"
Maya challenged him, "And what are you going to do about it?"
Tony's expression grew serious as he replied, "I can do a lot of things, but only if you tell me why you're here."
As Maya looked at Tony, a thought crossed her mind, "What if he's the CEO's son, or a relative of some sort?" she pondered to herself.
Maya finally decided to open up to Tony and revealed the main reason for her visit. "I need a job. Can you please help me?" she pleaded, her expression was a mixture of desperation and frustration.
Tony was surprised and asked, "Why didn't you mention this to the secretary or anyone else you spoke to before me?"
Maya explained, "I reached out to them online, but none of them gave me a positive response."
Tony paused for a moment and then asked, "Why do you want to work for this company?"
Maya looked at him incredulously, "Because this is the best fashion company in the whole of Florida. Isn't that obvious?"
Feeling defeated, Maya asked, "Now that you know the truth, are you going to reject me like everyone else?" She hoped that Tony would take pity on her.
Tony realized that time was running out, as he had to meet a new woman by noon. He decided to ask Maya a crucial question, "Do you know anything about fashion?"
Maya's face lit up with a smile, feeling confident in her answer. "Of course I do. I've promoted various fashion products and I'm passionate about fashion myself. Just check out my shoes," she said, taking off her shoes to show them to Tony.
"And what about the shoes? Please put them back on." Tony retorted
Maya muttered something under her breath, "Of course you wouldn't recognize it. You're just a security man."
Tony was taken aback and asked, "What did you just say?"
"Oh, it was nothing. I wasn't talking to you," Maya quickly replied.
Tony shook his head, "Look, I know you're pretty and attractive, but I don't think you're qualified to work here."
This response was all too familiar to Maya and it triggered her anger. She burst out, "What do you mean I'm not qualified? I have the skills and the passion for Fashion."
Maya couldn't hold back her anger and snapped at Tony, "Who do you think you are to tell me that?"
Tony began to respond, "The kind who owns..." but Maya cut him off with more angry words.
Tony smiled and said, "But there is another way for you to get this job."
Maya's tone softened as she asked, "And what is it?"
Tony replied, "There are two options for you."
Impatient, Maya said, "Spit it out already." She turned away from him, facing the wall and running her fingers through her hair.
Find out what the options are in chapter three. Will Maya accept the option that will get her the dream job she seeks? Or will she pick the option that will make her remain jobless?

Days later, Tony was ready to embark on his planned journey. Maya and the others gathered at the billionaire mansion to bid him farewell. "You know, I could come with you, right?" Lily teased Tony playfully. Tony chuckled warmly. He hugged each of them goodbye before getting into his car to set off. Maya stood there, waving at him, tears glittering in her eyes as she watched him drive away. "Why didn't he use his private jet? Why is he taking a public one instead?" Lily asked Aunt Loretta and James curiously. "Tony owns the airport, and does have a private plane, but he means business. He figured that instead of traveling alone and losing money, why not take other people along and make money, since they're all going the same way," James explained, Lily nodded, admiring Tony's business-minded thinking. At the airport, Tony was waiting for his flight, it seemed he had arrived thirty minutes earlier than the scheduled departure time. He decided to find a seat and relax while waitin
Tony and Maya shared a meal at the restaurant, and Tony recap what he had said back at the company. He told Maya that he wouldn't make any attempts to kiss her first, but he would always be there for her, waiting on the sidelines whenever she needed him. Maya appreciated Tony's understanding and honesty, but she also knew that she needed to focus on her relationship with James. To lighten the mood, Tony decided to make a joke about their first encounter when Maya called him the head of security. They both laughed, and the tension between them seemed to ease. As James watched from a distance, he didn't see anything suspicious between Tony and Maya, so he decided to leave and go about his own business. Immediately James left, Tony and Maya walked out from the restaurant. As they stood outside the restaurant, Maya asked Tony when he would be leaving for the United Kingdom. Tony replied that once his visa was ready, he would be leaving. Maya hid her true emotions upon hearing his repl

"Maya," he called out softly, hoping to catch her attention.Maya's heart pounded as Tony held her shoulder, preventing her from escaping their conversation.

What!" she exclaimed faintly, trying to mask the emotions bubbling within her.Tony took a deep breath, his eyes searching hers for any sign of understanding. "I want to talk to you, Maya," he said softly. "About everything—the kiss, our friendship, and my plans to travel to the United Kingdom for a few months."Maya knew she couldn't run away from this conversation forever, but she was afraid of the emotions it would stir up. She wanted to understand where they stood b
After Maya was gone, Elena turned around, and her heart skipped a beat as her gaze locked on her longtime crush, Thomas Aryan. Aryan, the charming and enigmatic colleague, approached Elena with curiosity evident in his voice. He inquired if the melodic voice he heard earlier belonged to Maya. Elena confirmed that it was indeed Maya's voice, causing a mixture of surprise and delight to wash over Aryan's features. "Didn't she quit?" Aryan asked, genuinely puzzled about Maya's return. Elena explained that Maya had indeed left but had now come back to the company. A spark of happiness and excitement flickered in Aryan's eyes at the prospect of seeing Maya once again. Elena and Aryan exchanged a mysterious grin, knowing that they shared a secret attraction towards one another. However, they went their separate ways, heading to their respective departments, leaving the unspoken feelings hanging in the air. As Maya entered James's office, he wasted no time and locked the door behind her. T
Lily's eyes widened in shock as she absorbed the news of Tony and Maya's kiss. She bombarded Maya with questions, eager to understand the details of when, where, and how it all had happened.Maya, still overwhelmed by the situation, explained that it had been a moment of weakness, a connection that they had both felt in that particular moment. Lily's curiosity grew, and she pressed further, asking who had initiated the kiss. Maya's heart skipped a beat, torn between honesty and hesitation. Eventually, she confessed that Tony had kissed her first, and for a brief moment, she had kissed him back.The admission hung in the air between them, the weight of their feelings and the complexity of their relationships becoming increasingly apparent. Maya didn't respond verbally to Lily's question, but her eyes betrayed the truth, confirming the brief reciprocation.Lily, although not entirely surprised by the revelation, recognized the depth of the emotions involved. She understood that Tony and
James's heart leaped with joy as he saw Maya standing unharmed in the hospital room. Without a second thought, he rushed towards her, enveloping her in a tight embrace. "Maya, are you okay? Did you get hurt?" he asked, his voice filled with concern.Maya, taken aback by the sudden rush of emotions, smiled and reassured James, "I'm fine, James. I didn't get into an accident. I actually helped a lady who was involved in the accident."Relief washed over James, Aunt Loretta, and Lily as they realized that Maya was safe and sound. Confusion filled Maya's eyes as she questioned how they knew she was at the hospital. Lily chimed in, explaining that they received a call from her phone, informing them about the accident. Aunt Loretta spoke up, her voice brimming with gratitude, "We were worried when we got the call, but we're just so glad to see you here, Maya."The three of them surrounded Maya, pulling her into a tight group hug, their emotions merging into one.
