Turns Out My Online Friend Is My Real-life Boss Novels & Stories

I said with a scrunched up face, and also demonstrating by squeezing my fist tight "God, That guy annoys me so much!" Mildred chuckled. "Well he's your boss now, you're gonna be seeing him everyday" "Yeah every day and everywhere!" I exclaimed, waving my hands around "You won't believe I even saw him in my dreams a day before the interview" I blurted out. Mildred paused her action "You saw him in your dreams?" "Yeah, he was my boss in the dream and then became my boss in reality!" I said sharply and huffed angrily "Look at that!"

For the first time in my life, I couldn’t have been more grateful for an email from my arrogant boss. “Is that from your apartment again?” She asked. “No,” I pushed myself out of my chair. “It’s from Mr. Calloway. He wants me to meet Sara for more details about the project.” “That’s amazing!” she gleamed before pulling me into a tight hug. My body relaxed before I even realized it had, as though it had been craving genuine human contact for a long time. I gave her a light tap on the back. “I really need to go. I don’t want to get fired in less than three days,” I said sarcastically.

Benji sighed, "Petra, please. This client wants to meet you. What's wrong with postponing for a day?" "You're my friend, just stand in for me." Benji sighed, he could only resign himself when Petra spoke about their friendship. Initially, Benji and Petra were close friends. Benji had been working in the company much longer before Petra joined. Benji used to be Petra's father's secretary, and after the unfortunate incident, Benji became Petra's subordinate, not to mention his friend since they were in senior high school. "Fine, but I can't promise this project will be successful."

It’s like I’ve eaten a lot of insects in my stomach to feel the intense tickle on him. “H-How, how sure are you that the mentioned amount a while back is legitimate?” I confirmed. He smiled sarcastically. “So you were in doubt, huh?” “Well.” I bit my lip. “Is that true?” Maybe he’s just saying that to not kick me out? But in my mind, I hope it’s true because I won’t find another job and get paid like this. Wow, friend. Only a fool would not accept this job. I am willing to learn everything.

she inquired. I sighed and let out, "My boss hates me." "Doesn't everyone's boss hate them?" I laughed and said, "Maybe." My voice saddened as I added, "But his hatred just feels more personal. I wonder why. I don't think I ever did anything to step on his toes." "You were probably his ex-wife in the previous life," she joked. "Yeah, right. As if that's possible." I shook my head at her ridiculous suggestion. "You should watch more supernatural shows to know what can or can't be possible."

"You know what, Alice? I do think you're making this up. Not only that, but you're trying to make a fool out of me. You're telling me you saved your lover's phone number under my name? Just in case I caught you?" "What lover!?" I asked hysterically. "There's no lover, Benjamin! I swear to God! What you saw up there was a cruel misunderstanding. I don't have an affair with my boss!" His eyes lit up, and he stepped even closer to me. I saw hatred in his warm brown eyes. I'd never seen him look at me this way before. "Oh, you mean the same boss you're always shit-talking? That one?" I didn't know what to reply to that, so I grabbed his arm and said, "Please, baby. I need you to believe me. I—"

- your boss and bestfriend" I laughed and nodded before walking away from him. When I felt a pain after hearing what he said, I bitterly smiled to myself, our relationship being him as my boss and me as his best friend will not change. I'm embarrassed because, like a desperate woman, I was expecting a label. I heaved a sigh, trying not to think about it. I need to remind myself that my role in their lives is a mere substitute, nothing more, nothing less.

"Wait, wait. Did you say a... friend?" At first, I get overly excited. I was never congratulated or appreciated for what I've done and now I was given a bonus for my hard work. But then, my heart sinks to my feet as I realise what my boss just said. "Viktor..." The name of his possible friend pops up in my mind as I recall him saying he knows my boss. So much for earning it by myself.

She works for me, and I am her boss. I sternly corrected her, "Employees don't talk with their boss like that." Vanessa responded with an astonished "Ohhh." I said, "You are working for me, I'm the boss, so please behave like an employee." "We are in your workplace, which has a nice environment, and I am worried about you because we are friends. Besides, the boss can be friends with her staff, right?" My eyes were still fixed on the folders, but I nodded anyhow. "But not to you," I say.
