Hearing those words from Tyler lifted my spirit. Ever since we became friends, whenever Tyler came up with a solution, it happened to work and I was hoping this too would work.

I dropped my clothes on the bed and walked towards Tyler

"What's the solution?" I said standing a breath away from him and he took my hands

"Come sit" he pulled me to the bed where we sat down.

"So I was thinking-" he cleared his throat and a

swallowed hard as he stared at me who felt the suspense was killing me.

"I'll take the blame. I'll admit to everything" he said and I stood up abruptly in anger.

"Is that what you call a solution?" I yelled at him, throwing at him my clothes

"Out of all things to think of! This?" I was furious at him.

"That's a solution! is it not? I'm trying to help you here Beatrix"

"Help me? by putting yourself in the middle? then what happens to my conscience? You expect me to be fine after you admit to something you had no hand in"

    My eyes dropped, not in disappointment but in surprise and shock.Not only did I get in, I got the post of a secretary. Not just a random secretary but a personal secretary to Mr Grey.Why?? I wondered why they'd pick me for that high post. Was Mr Grey there all through my interview? Did I impress him with my replies that he couldn't resist the urge to make me his personal secretary?"Hmm" I smiled nodding my head incessantly, I could feel butterflies in my stomach. I felt on top of the world that I impressed a billionaire. It wasn't an easy task impressing a famous billionaire; they had everything.I danced around my room gracefully in happiness and stopped abruptly when my mind went off to when I used to dance at the clubhouse, "how I missed dancing" I sniffled and my heart saddened when I remembered Paxton.I had learnt to leave with the fact that Paxton was dead and wasn't coming back to me.And Just like they say, time heals all wounds.

It's nice to meet you" I said stretching out my hands but surprisingly, she pulled me into a hug"Welcome to Grey Airlines, I'm sure we'll make a good team. I'll tell you everything you need to know about your work" she smiled at me handing me a couple of files "Okay..." I chuckled clutching the files tightly to my chest"And then, Mr Grey's likes and dislikes" she rolled her eyes and sat on the desk just outside Mr Grey's office."This will be your desk" she took the files from me and dropped them on the table"oh nice" I said dropping my bag on the chair. It was right outside Mr Grey's office and I could see through the glass wall into his office."Mr Grey doesn't like late coming..." she continued, I saw her mouth move inaudibly as she said alot of things that I couldn't hear. I was staring at Mr Grey's as he went through some papers and I wondered what kind of person he was.I grasped as Mr Grey looked up at

    "Mr Grey" I was astonished to see him right behind me and I moved a bit for him to walk freely towards the counter"M.. Mr Grey" the guy at the counter stuttered as Mr Grey beheld him."What were you on about employees with minor roles?" Mr Grey grabbed a chair and sat by the counter waiting for his question to be attended to"N.. n.. no.. nothing sir" his voice shook in fear "It's not what you think. I thought she was stealing from the company and using you as an excuse" he said and Mr Grey smirked."Someone here hasn't been reading the magazine of this company" he hit his fist angrily on the counter making everyone startle at first."I'm sorry sir" he apologized"Apologize to her" he said"I'm sorry miss" the coffee guy said and I looked at him in disgust and sighed."Listen up everyone" Mr Grey said loudly and the noise which was earlier heard seized immediately; what power he held!"This young lady here is my new personal assistant, I'll need you all to give her some respect" he s

    **Alarm beeps**"Oh! How I hate the alarm!" Beatrix sighed getting up from her bed. She hurriedly had a shower and searched her closets for clothes."Hmph" a happy sigh escaped her lips when she found her black skirt and pink dress lying on her couch."There you are" she hurriedly went over and put them on. Sitting in front of the mirror, she neatly brushed her long curly brown hair and styled it neatly into a ponytail."I'll be late again and there's nothing I can do about it" she nonchalantly said as she dropped her phone and peered into the mirror to take a last glance at herself, her deep blue eyes revealed innocence yet mystery. She picked up her bag, shut her door and she flagged down a taxi. "Beatrix! You're late again!" Miss Lorena shouted giving her a stern look."I'm sorry ma'am. I just had....." one of the things she hated aside living an uncomfortable life was being scolded by miss Lorena "Not your flimsy excuses" she shove her off waving her hands "Get to work" she wal

    She sat in her room thinking about what Mrs Lorelei had told her the previous night."Should she accept Paxton's offer to spend a night with him?" she pondered on this. Truly, she needed to build her life with the money and above all, she wanted to stop working at the coffee shop. So giving it a try wouldn't be bad, she thought. She picked up her phone to call miss Lorelei to tell her she had accepted but on a second thought, she decided to rethink accepting it and whatever her outcome would be, she knew she had to think fast. **phone rings**"Hey girl" Tyler said over the phone"hello" she said faintly"are you okay? you don't sound too good""uhm...

    Her heartbeat doubled as her thoughts failed her. Could she be dreaming? She hoped that was the case."Paxton, Paxton" she called him, tapping him on his shoulders lightly and when she got no reply, her fear took over her. She finally found the courage to stand up and she looked down at Paxton."Noo!" she screamed crying! There was a gunshot wound close to his chest."Paxton!" she shook his violently, tears dripping from her eyes but she got no reply, he was lifeless.She picked up her phone and thought of calling the ambulance but on a second thought, she couldn't do that, she'd be the only suspect, so she made sure she took everything that belonged to her and with a heavy heart, she walked briskly out of his house.She walked as fast as her legs could carry her. She cared about Paxton, but she needed to save herself.Entering a cab wasn't necessary, she walked home.
