All Chapters of My Sweet Boss And I: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

I am at work, being busy, running from one floor to the other, being productive. Lunch hour, I went to Shawn’s office and like always, he was busy jumping his eyes from one paper to the other. When he saw me he immediately stopped working and greeted me with a big smile. “So what should we have for lunch?” I asked him. “I don’t know.” he answered as he giggled “Maybe we can go to brownies girls.” He was clearly mocking me. “Oh, you think that is funny?” I ran over to him and pinched him on his shoulder. “Ouch” he cried out, he grabbed me by the arm and hugged me. “Oh, someone is in a good mood today” I made a comment as I hugged him back. “Why wouldn’t I be? I have the world’s best butterfly hunter with me.” he said with his worm and manly voice. “Shut up” I giggled. “Oh” Shawn said “You remember Ron King right?” “Ya” I answered. “He has invited us to his anniversary dinner party.” “Both of us” I asked. “Ya” he answered. “Does he know we are together?” I asked Shawn again.

He got mad-for some reason- he stood up and left in a light speed. I have never been more disappointed in my life. But just to fill my anger I ate both the dishes that arrived for Shawn and me. He had paid before he left so I stood up and walked out with a full belly. I have no idea where to go. I can’t go to MC because Chris is in town and they are spending the night together. I can’t go home because mom and dad have a special evening planed. And I can just go to MCs’ house to hang because her parents have a romantic night planned as well. I thought since I was going to be with Shawn, I didn’t have to go home till midnight so I wouldn’t disturb mom and dad. But there I was, walking in my every day shoes-that somehow I knew I needed-with my stomach dragging me backwards all alone on Valentine’s Day. After an hour of walking, I arrived in front of my house at ten PM. I already told them I will be out till midnight so I had to wait out the remaining two hours sitting on the stair in fro

After the meeting is over, I went to Shawn’s office. He greets me with a smile but I was not in the mood for it. “Why do you insist on calling me by my name?” I asked before even saying ‘hi’. “Then what am I supposed to call you?” He asked coolly. “Ms. Jona is what you are supposed to call me. Don’t call me ‘Princi’ call me ‘Ms. Jona’. And if you have anything you want to talk to me about work then say it to Oliver like you used to.” I walked out before he could say a word. When I walked out of his office, I felt everybody’s eyes on me. It was too pressuring and uncomfortable. I truly miss the days when no one cared about me even if I was missing from the group. I miss the times when I would do my job in the background. I know I am saying this because I am upset, but I totally miss the time I worked for my former boss Mr. Custo, when he would ignore my presence in a meeting or wouldn’t even bother telling me to go to the meetings and would even forget my name to ask me for a cup of

Edwards’ eyes went wide “How did you know?” he asked probably thinking I am a mind reader. “My brother, Kevin: he used to write to me about a friend of his called Josh. I never knew he was this Swift.” I finally gave him an answer. We were both stunned. The world truly is a small place. I was so shocked, I was looking for something to have in common with him but this was not what I expected. His frown turned upside down. Considering that two of the most important peoples in our lives knew each other was mind blowing. His once pushed together eyebrows are now far apart. And I see his teeth. Pointing to the chair across from him he told me to take a seat. As soon as I sat down he started talking. “Look Ms….” He didn’t know my last name “Jona” I told him. He continued “Ms. Jona, I am happy to have met the sister of the man my son has written to me about, but my mind on investing in DC has not changed.” I cut him off “You have decided not to invest because you have judge DC through jus

“I am going to break up with him.” I told MC when she came over to visit. “What” she asked in a high pitched tone out of disbelief. “MC I am suffering at work in a way he can’t even imagine. No one can say a thing about him. Everyone has their focus on me. Lucy Chaw has been busy spreading rumors about me. It is hard to work in that kind of environment.” “Don’t jump in to this decision without considering about his feelings as well.” MC warned me. “You don’t get it. Every day I hear someone say something about me and I blame Shawn. I would always think to myself if I hadn’t met him in that elevator I would have been able to work peacefully. Not only am I hating my job’ but I am actually starting to despise him as well. When I told him I was sick he was really worried, he kept calling me over and over and I really love him for it. But if things at work don’t get better I am scared I would actually start to hate him. So before that happens I need to let him go.” MC looked at me for
