At exact 7:30 in the morning when I got to the office. As expected Hailey pays no attention to me as if I am invisible to her. She does not want to talk unless it was related to my work. But I just keep on working until one day, my father Joseph arrives at Hailey's office.Hailey stood up, "dad? What is going on? Do you want something from me?" Hailey asked."Do you have a minute? I just want to talk to you regarding your performance!" he said, smiling at Hailey. "Sure!" she said, smiling back at her father. She glanced at me and raised her voice. "Get the hell out of here! Me and my dad is going to have a personal conversation!"I held the door knob when Hailey's father spoke to me, "No Stella! I would also like to talk to you about this!"I sat down in front of my father and Hailey seated on her chair as well. I was so fucking nervous this time and I cannot stop shaking. I was surprised when my father held my hand ang gave me a smile. "Don't worry or don't be afraid, Stella! I kno
This time, I could feel the rising tension happening inside Hailey's office. I wanted to leave but I know I am the only one who can calm them down!"Hailey, I beg you not to yell at your father. He has a heart condition which will get worse if he continue stressing himself. If you want, I can resign from my position and you will never see me again!"Hailey left her office without saying any words. I looked at Sir Joseph and he spoke to me with a calm voice. "Stella, I am so sorry for what you have witnessed! As the president of this company, I highly regarded employees as the best asset of my team and I put all those who worked hard in a higher position!""But what about Hailey sir? I know that she worked really hard for her position as well and that is a fact!""Don't mind about Hailey, she is not as smart as you. Even though she is my daughter, I know that she is not qualified enough to become the Chief Marketing Officer and you obviously have the potential to become one!"I am not
"Okay fine Hailey. Do whatever you want!" I said.I went to Sir Michael's office but I knocked on the door before entering. I know that he might be busy doing a lot of things inside. As soon as he opened the door, I smiled at him and greeted him happily. "Good afternoon Sir Michael, I came here to personally give you the documents you need to sign!"He did not smile at me and it looks like he does not want me to come inside. He took one of the documents and review it. I slightly frowned because the documents were quite heavy."Would you like me to help you?" said a familiar voice.I turned around and I saw my boyfriend Nick in polo shirt. He gave me a rakish smile and I admit, it really paved away the sadness in my face. "Sure!" I answered. "Nick, go back to your area! I sent you an email to you and you need to accomplish it before 6:00 in the evening!"I am not stupid not to know that Michael intentionally let Nick leave instead of helping me carry the documents inside his damn of
Nick looked at me with hesitation. "But Stella, are you really sure about it?"I smiled at him with teeth out. "Of course I am! It will not take too long, I swear!"I put my phone on the table to record the conversation between Hailey and Nick. I dragged my feet towards towards the line and I could not help but to stare at them. I was kind of nervous because they seemed so comfortable with each other. But I have them monitored and later after my work, I will play my recording of their conversation. A few minutes later, I went back to our table and I immediately put my phone inside my pocket. I immediately kissed Nick on his cheeks and asked him. "Did you miss me?""How can I not?" he said."So may I know what you were talking about earlier with Hailey? Based on what I have seen, you two are getting along with each other so well already!"Hailey gave me a long face. "What the hell are you talking about? Are you feeling jealous over shallow things? We only talked about our past memorie
When I went back to my house, I quickly played the recording on my phone and I have concluded that Nick and Hailey planned to meet tomorrow after the work. It really pisses me off knowing that he is going to betray me like this. I am the one who only owns my boyfriend and Hailey is just a nightmare throwback for Nick. However, in as much as I would like to confront Nick, I know that he would still deny that there is something going on between him and Hailey. And because I am now superior to Hailey, I need to act more matured than her so that Nick will still choose me over to her. I am willing to forget about my friendship with Hailey if that is the only way I can be with Nick for the rest of my life.While I am eating in the middle of the night, my stepfather suddenly came out. "What's with the long face?" He asked me. I smiled at my stepfather, "there is something to worry about!""Would you mind if I sit down? I just want to talk to you personally!"I don't see anything wrong wit
"But when I confronted him earlier about this, he does not want to talk! And I am afraid that this is not the first time it will happen!""I understand where you are coming from, but it really needs a teamwork in order for a relationship to work. Try to talk to him if that what makes you comfortable!""How about you, if you were in the same position, are you going to confront the person who is flirting with mom or are you going to talk to her directly?""I will choose to talk to both of them since they are doing it together. However, I trusted your mom because she is matured enough to handle a relationship. This is totally different in your age, Stella. Your boyfriend is handsome and I know that there are many women who will try to steal him from you and it's gonna be challenging to trust him! But as I said, as long as he is not cheating with another woman or a gay, you need to put your trust in him!""Thank you, Peter! I know that you've got problems on your own but you still choose
Tomorrow morning, I went to my office at exact 6:30 a.m. The lights on different departments are still turned off so I went to office's cafeteria in order to have some coffee. Until this very moment, I still could accept the fact that Nick is upset with me!When I got my coffee, I quickly returned to my office and I was shocked when I saw Nick sitting on my table and looking at me with a serious face. Then he tilted his mouth to speak. "Are you surprise that I am here, Stella?" "Why are you here? I thought you were upset with me?""I told you already... we need to talk... heart to heart while nobody is around. In that way, we can assure that we have no future problems!"I closed the damn door and went to my area. I put my coffee on the table and leaned on my chair. "And what would you like to talk about?""I believe you still remember our previous chat!"I crossed my arms over my chest. "If this is regarding me stepping down to give way for Hailey, Nick... that ain't gonna happen!"
"Is that so? But why are you acting that way? I am very sure that Nick said something to you that makes you really sad. I wonder if he's losing interest in having a relationship with someone as immature as you are. Seriously, having a boyfriend like him does not suit you well... bitch!"I've really had enough of Hailey being a bitch to me so I returned those words back to her. "Well... I would rather be a real person in front of a bitch rather than being a fake like someone in front of me!""So you want a trouble again? Are you being so arrogant now because you are in that position? Because you stole Nick from me and broke our promise?""First of all, I am not starting a trouble here. I just want you to know that you are getting in my nerves and I know for a fact that you are the ones manipulating Nick to do something against me. I don't even think that it makes me arrogant if I'm being rude to someone who does not show me respect!"She looked at me as if she is confused. "What the f
