All Chapters of Personal Assistant to my Bully CEO : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

“Is this it?" Dean asked.I nodded stiffly. “There are two options. We either hold our breaths as we step into the elevator, or we take the stairs up to the seventh floor.”He groaned. “I'm so tired now to climb any stairs." “So you're gonna go back to school next month, right? Are you ditching your prom?” I didn't like the joke he made about his finals. It ought to be next month."It has nothing to do with the stairs, does it?”I huffed. I guess he wasn't ready to talk about it. Same here. I had my own barrage of problems too.As usual, I held my breath in the elevator, till we got to the door. “Wow. This is a real slum, Bonnie." Dean whistled to my annoyance as I knocked at the door. The doorbell wasn't functioning, and no one was ready to fix it. “Why don't you make up with Gia and stay with her instead?" “Does that make any sense?” I knocked again, harder this time, and Shirley opened the door. She paused like she had just seen an angel, and stared dumbstruck at Dean.I remembe

Hey, get a grip of yourself, Michael.I tried to relax my nerves.“Were you really going to head home after I told you you were fired? You expected me to call you back, didn't you? That was why you used helping Sammy and Kieran as an excuse, right?”She scoffed. “I didn't even think I'll run into you in the studio, so that can't count.”"Why not? I know you need the salary so badly. Though God knows what you were doing at the club the other night in your friend's dress.” If she was really angry, I bet she could blurt out the reason she was there. I don't know why, but a bigger part of me was curious, and I was dying to know.She sighed deeply. "Yeah, God knows indeed.” her voice was flat.Feeling humiliated at her response, I snatched the tablet from her, and alighted from the car.She ran after me. “Hey, Mr. Michael Monte. You were supposed to approve it and hand it back to me so that I'll send it to you. I'll need it for the meeting, you know." “Oh." I stared down at my hand. I was

I stared up at Ruki, wondering what she had to say."Is everything okay?” Her eyes were curious and searching. "I mean… between you and Bonnie.”"Why do you ask?" I asked stiffly.“I tried to come into the office the other time, but the door was locked. I thought there was a slight scuffle before that." “Okay?" “That's…that's why I'm asking." “You THOUGHT there was a scuffle, so you're WONDERING if everything is okay?" The way I put it actually made her feel stupid and sorry for asking.“Have you printed the extra copies for the budget I handed you? And have you prepared the letters for the mails I sent?" “Yeah, I've done it all." That was the problem I had with her. She was always perfect in her job, and hardly left any stone unturned. Now, there was absolutely nothing to bash her with. There was no point asking further because I'm sure she had everything under control.I sneered. “If you're less busy, then it's not an excuse for your imagination to run wild, Ruki.”I hit her th

"Why do you want to see her?” Mich demanded from Lena with an edge in his voice, and Lena burst out in laughter. "Why are you taking me serious? Of course, it's you I came for. Why are you pretending you don't miss me?" She stroked his hair with affection, and I looked away, wondering if I should return to the office or still go down to get my breakfast without him. But Lena made my decision faster. She whispered something into Mich's ears. He smiled, and together they headed out. I didn't know what to feel like. I just felt a deep empty hollow feeling inside. Nonetheless, I couldn't help but wonder why Mich tried to flirt with me earlier. Was he drunk or was it the effect of Sammy's presence? I sighed in relief when I didn't find Ruki at her table, so I returned to my desk at Mich's office in peace, wondering why Lena had to step in to ruin breakfast for me. When Mich returned to the office, he wasn't alone. He came with a scowl on his face, and an important looking clien

"I'll get going then.” I said to ease the tension and awkwardness.Antonio and Mich said nothing to each other as we parted ways. But instead of heading for the elevator, Mich made his way toward the end of the hallway. I guess he was going to see Sammy. Were they that close? Or didn't he have other friends he hung out with? The Mich I knew back then was more of a socialite and the life of the party. Or was he more reserved now because he was wealthy? Was he lonely? Was there something bothering him? I remember the guest that came earlier that day after his girlfriend, Lena left, and how his countenance fell. He had ordered me out too.But since he was so cocky and arrogant, I think he'll be fine. Probably embrace the same attitude toward his situation, huh? Come to think of it, why was I suddenly worrying about him?“Are you okay? You're awfully quiet." Antonio remarked as he pulled out of the parking lot.I chuckled. “Am I? Do you mean I'm usually a talkative?" “Aren't you? I see
