Chapter: Chapter 18Melanie got down from the taxi and patted down any creases in her navy blue chiffon top and black palazzo bottoms as Leila paid for the ride. As they opened the door and walked in, Melanie was surprised to see the employees running around and doing their various work with twice the speed and efficiency. Leila chuckled. “It seems the CEO called earlier about coming in today. That’s why they’re being so diligent”.Melanie turned to her. “The CEO? That’s Mr. Sinclair’s father?”.“Yeah. He comes once in a while to check up on things. He refused to hand everything over to Calvin since he isn’t dead yet. Sometimes he gives a warning of his coming or he comes unannounced. I think today is one of the days where he decided to inform beforehand”.“Then I should probably go up and stay working. Who knows when he’ll get here”.

Chapter: Chapter 17Melanie had just gotten to work and settled on her chair to start checking through urgent emails when the elevator doors opened and a glamorously dressed young woman stepped out into the small hallway. She was tall and slender, with long, wavy blonde hair and piercing blue eyes that seemed to look right through her and Melanie can’t help but feel intimidated by her presence. She rose from her seat as the lady walked towards her and she was stunned when she saw closely how beautiful she was and was even more stunned at the resemblance they shared. The lady seemed taken aback upon seeing her too but she quickly schooled her features and curled her lips into a small smirk as she gave Melanie an obvious once-over and Melanie couldn’t help feeling self-conscious in her navy blue chiffon shirt and black suit pants.“Vinnie must have missed me quite a lot of he felt he had to hire a low budget lookalike to stay at his side everyday”.Melanie couldn’t help the scowl that crept up her face

After all, she had an impressive resume and had received glowing recommendations from her previous employers.However, her enthusiasm quickly waned when she met her new boss. For one, Lucas was obnoxiously childish, always cracking jokes and making inappropriate comments.

Could you please bring them in?”, Her grandmother's voice came from her bedroom right next to where they were.“Sure, Nana” , Melanie answered and excused herself to go check out what letters had been stuffed violently into their tiny mailbox.As she gathered up the letters, a particular logo on one of the envelopes caught her eye and her breath caught in her throat. It was the logo of the company she had interviewed for over a week ago and was still awaiting a response and though she hadn’t felt much hope, her heart was now viciously pounding against her chest threatening to burst through her body. They had sent her a letter. Did that mean that they wanted to hire her? That had to be why. Companies didn’t send envelopes to applicants to reject them.
