Jason povI came to work this morning, an hour before work hours. I knew Kathleen won't be at work so I wasn't expecting her to be in her office.I entered my office and went to sit down, I have sleepless night this past few days. Dreams from the past keep coming back. Now I hardly sleep.The pills that helps me sleep finished three days ago and I didn't bother going to get another. I was really busy to care about that.I rested back on my chair and closed my eyes. I was having headache due to the sleepless night I was having.I sighed.My suddenly pushed open."Hey, baby." I heard the most annoying voice I never wanted to hear, not I wasn't expecting to see her here.She called to tell she coming back today but ignored her call and I saw her text messages.I opened my eyes. "What are you doing here, Trish?"She frowned. "What do you mean by that? I am here to see you, I know you have missed me and I missed you too." She strode to my chair.She was a short tight grown that did a perfec
Kathleen povI heard him cursed under his breath. My hands was still in front of my eyes. "And who the hell is this." I heard the lady's voice. She scoffed."She is no one, no get the fuck off my thigh." Jason said."What?""Are you deaf?" He snapped.I flinched at his voice. I think I should leave so I won't make things awkward for the three of us.I turned and left the office. I closed the door gently behind me.I let down my hands and breathed out heavily."Oh no this isn't happening." I whined. I bit down on my lower.What the fuck is wrong with me? I should have knocked before entering."Haaaaa." I cried out, tears wasn't coming out but I know it won't take long before it starts rolling down.This was the end of my job, he is definitely firing me this time."Are you okay?"I was startled at the suddenly voice from beside me. I turned to see Mr Derek."Ohh good morning, sir." I greeted.He raised his brow. "I thought you were crying.""Huh? No I w....wasn't." I said blinking conti
Kathleen pov"Good morning, Sir." I greeted."Who gave you the permission to enter my office?""I don't understand what you mean, Sir." I acted as if I don't understand what he was saying.He tilted his head. He stood up from his chair and walked to his desk."Derek, leave us." He said without taking his gaze from me."Okay." Derek said and turned to leave. He glance at me.I pleaded for him not to leave with my eyes when trying to keep a straight face. He noticed it and turned to Jason."You should think before doing something you would regret." He said.Jason glance at him. "What the fuck are you talking about? I want sometime with my secretary."He nodded. "Okay." He turned and glance at me. He sighed and walked out of his office.Now it was me and Jason."First you entered my office without my permission and now you denying it." He said as he takes steps closer to me.I was taking some steps back. "If it about earlier, I didn't think you would be busy in your office." I said."Am so
Jason povI had to send Trish home when Kathleen spoiled the fun I was having. Derek had walk in at that moment. He didn't say anything not until Trish angrily left my office. "What the hell happened? I saw your secretary outside your office, she was a mess and now Trish?" He asked. "Well that stupid bitch had to mess up things." I said angry. I finally put the last button into the hole. He smirked."Were you fucking Trish when your secretary entered your office, because she kinda looked like she saw something she wasn't supposed to see." "I don't care." I picked the telephone and called Ms snow. She didn't pick at the first ring, I called it again and she picked it. "Come to my fucking office now."I said and dropped the telephone. "Was crewing Trish in your office one of your plans?"Derek asked. "No it wasn't, she gave me a surprise visit." I said. I sat down waiting for Kathleen to enter my office. I heard knocks on the door "Fucking enter the damn office." I snapped. Sh
Kathleen pov What would the punishment be? Fire me? No….i can't pass through that again. I shut my eyes tightly. "Please don't fire me, I would do anything you want me to do. Please." I said without slowing down to think about what I was saying. My eyes were still shut, I didn't want to see his expression. He chuckled and dropped his hand from my cheek. I slowly opened to see Jason standing two steps in front of me. His hands were shoved into his pocket. I blinked and adjusted my jacket, now I look like a total loser. "You don't want to be fired and yet you talk more about it." He said and scoffed. He turned and went back to his chair. "You can get out now, Ms Kathleen." He said. I nodded and turned to leave. "Wait Ms snow," He called and I turned to him. "Send my schedule for today to my email, I don't want to see you pathetic face today so I wouldn't be needing you for anything." What? "Okay." I turned and went to open the door, I opened it left his office. Fucking assh
Jason pov"No one is beyond mistake."I said the first thing I came to my mind.He smirked."I know for a fact that isn't the way it being said."I shrugged. "It the same, at least you got what I wanted to say.""You shouldn't treat her like that even she doesn't worth anything to you. If you don't want her here then you should fire her from the job.""She doesn't want that, and what the fun in that. Ms Snow is staying here for as long as I want." I said. "Now let stop talking about her, I have works to do."He hissed. "You should call Trish.""Why?" I asked dully."You also treated like shit, remember she is part of the plan.""No need for that," I dismissed the idea and turned on my computer. I got a message from Ms Snow, she had sent the schedule for today to my email."I think I would leave now." He stood up. "if you need anything just call me."I nodded as my eyes were still on the computer screen.I had meetings that I would be attending without Ms Snow.Kathleen povI was done wit
Kathleen pov"So guys this Kathleen, you all know her as the secretary of Mr knight." Hannah introduced."This is Jina, Jordan, Liam and Sam." "Hi Kathleen, we have heard a lot about you from Hannah." Jina said smiling. "Really?" I glanced at Hannah and she winked at me and smiled. "Uh, I wish I could say the same thing." I said. "Ohh it's fine." Sam said. I nodded. "It's nice meeting you guys." "Okay, let's continue eating." Hannah said and we began to eat. The lunch hour went well, I hardly said anything while the other continued talking about their work and all. But it was better than sitting down all by myself in my office. When lunch hour ended, we all left the cafeteria at the same time. I went back to my office to continue my work. When it finally reached closing hour, I finished up the work I had to do and transferred it to Jason's email. When I was done, I took my purse and left the office. Lizzy sent me a text that she would drop by the company to pick me up when she
Kathleen pov Finally, it weekend. No work or anything except for Lora cousin's wedding. Last night we did a lot of shopping, Lizzy couldn't figure out what exactly fits her. Lora went for a simple but sexy dress that was in her own favorite colour. I just had to pick a short black dress with a small split at the end. My alarm clock buzzed, I forgot to turn it off last night before going to bed. I turned it off and stood up to get ready for the wedding. The wedding start at noon, we had to be there before it starts and it going to be four hours drive from our place. My door was pulled open. "Howdy rommie."Lora greeted as she entered my bedroom with smile on her face. She was putting on her pink robe. "Hey, Lora." I greeted back. "Gotten ready?" "Almost, I came to wake you up." She said. "You should have gone to Lizzy bedroom first, she needs that." I said smiling. Lora gasped. "Yeah I should have." We chuckled. Suddenly, we heard a loud scream coming from Lizzy bedroom. We r
Kathleen povA knock on my bedroom door woke me up early on Saturday morning. I had set my alarm clock to 10 am in the morning so I could get enough sleep when I hardly do during week days. "Kathleen, get up." I heard Lora voice as she entered my bedroom. "Why?" I slurred. "You have an early visitor, that the reason you need to get the fuck up." She said as she walked to the window. Visitor? Who? She spread the cotton allowing the morning the reflection of sun on my face. I quickly took the pillow to block the reflection of sun." Can you stop? ""Your weird friend is here to see, remind me her?" I took the pillow of my face. "Lydia? " Yeah that's lady."She replied. I remembered giving her the address to my place when I got home yesterday. I invited her for lunch not breakfast. "Well she's waiting for you in the sitting room. You should get up and see her before going back to bed. And don't you dare think of sleeping for another hour before going to see her." She said and wal
Jason pov"Come and take sit." I offered when I saw her enter my study she stood at the door.She walked to front of my desk and sat down."The investor coming today, did you reschedule the meetings?" I asked."Not yet, your schedule on Monday is tight and I don't know if you're taking the trip offer to Australia.""Ohh that? I had forgotten about that." I turned on my laptop began type. I wanted to get more information on the trip. I saw it wasn't a meeting with an ordinary investors. It was an important one. History Known by the names "The Honoured Society", L'Onorata Societa or La Famiglia to Italians but more simply as the Mafia to most Australians, the 'Ndrangheta has controlled Italian-Australian organised crime all along the East Coast of Australia since the early 20th century.My family got involved in them when we had business to take care of in Italy. Loranso was the one who pulled off the deal with the Ndrangheta. So we have being partners since then."I am going for the t
Kathleen povI dished out the soup into two bowl and placed it on the counter. Ariel and Jason sat down at the counter waiting for Nina to come try out."Okay, I still don't get it. Why did Kathleen have to prepare soup for Nina to have a taste? Is some kind of recruitment training or what? I thought Kathleen doesn't have any business here so is she here."Ariel asked Jason.Jason avoided her question as he kept on scrolling through his phone.I knew Jason doesn't want Ariel knowing so I kept quiet.Nina walked into the kitchen." Sono qui, signor cavaliere. "Nina said. (I am here, Mr knight) " Siediti e mangia. "Jason Instructed as he placed his phone on the counter. (Sit and eat) She nodded and sat down. I offered her a spoon and she took it. I watched her as she took her first and nodded. "Continue."Jason said. She continued eaten. " Okay if both of you don't want to say anything, I will have the second bowl. "Ariel said and took the second spoon from my hand. Jason didn't s
Kathleen pov"You did have to check the cctv camera to figure that." She walked to me. "You did well, Kathleen." I nodded. "But I shouldn't have lied.""Well don't feel guilty of doing that. It's just a lie, it won't kill you." Ariel said and tapped my shoulder.She walked to the fridge and opened it. "Something smells nice, is it what Nina is cooking?" She asked.Ohh the soupI hurried walked back to where I was cooking."Uhm, Kathleen are you the one cooking?" Ariel asked as she slowly closed the fridge while glancing back at Jason and I."Yeah I am....""It none of your business, Ariel." Jason said, stopping me from explaining to Ariel.She smirked. "You obviously didn't notice, Kathleen now is part of your life whether you want or not" She opened the bottle and drank from it.I glanced at Jason, he was glaring at Ariel. I decided to focus on the soup I was preparing.If this was the reason why he wanted me here, then I wanted to be done with this and leave this house."Where did y
Kathleen pov After having lunch with Jason, I found myself in the kitchen making soup.I can't believe Jason thinks I drugged him. Why on earth would I do so?I began preparing the soup while Jason sat at the down, working with his laptop.Nina wasn't in the kitchen, probably doing something else."Did you see Ariel on your coming here?" Jason asked.I remembered Ariel telling me not to inform Jason that she went out."Uhm," I shook my head. "No I didn't." I started starring the soup vigorously. Hoping he didn't figure that I was lying."Ms snow." Jason called.I stopped starring and held the spoon tight, I turn around to meet Jason gaze on me. "Yes, Mr knight.""Come take a look at my computer screen." He said.What? Why would I do that?I stood at my position without making a move."Don't make me repeat myself, Ms snow." He said, his tone was cold and deep.I nodded. "Yeah sure, I will."I dropped the spoon in a bowl and went to where he sat down." Take a look. "He pointed at the sc
Jason pov "Ms snow." I called. I saw how she spaced out while I was asking her questions relating to the report she sent to me. "Yes Mr knight, did you need anything else relating to the reports?" she asked like she paying attention to me. " You weren't paying attention to what I was saying so don't pretend. You zoned out, do you mind telling me what in your mind?"I asked. She opened her mouth to deny but had a second thought. She did know I knew when she decides to lie. "I was th......" The knock on the door didn't let her finish what she was about to say. "Yeah come in." I said and the door opened. "Signor cavaliere, il suo cibo è pronto nella sala da pranzo." Nina said as she stood at the door. ("Mr knight, your food is set in the dining) "Ci Sanremo." I replied (We will there) Nina nodded and left my study "Food is ready, Ms snow. Let go eat." I stood up from my chair and walked to the door. Kathleen did the same and followed me out of the study. We walked to the di
Jason pov"I want you in my house now." I instructed and hung up.I threw my phone on the bed after I hung up the call.Her soup couldn't be the reason I slept and woke up late right?I shook my head, yeah it can't be.I felt so relieved, it being a long while since I had this feelings. If it was the soup which it couldn't, I did want to know what she had add into it.I went to the bathroom to freshen up and get ready to see Kathleen.After few minutes later, I had freshen up and gotten dressed.What I need now is my breakfast.I went down stairs and saw Kathleen with Nina, she was trying to speak English so Nina could understand.Doesn't she know Nina doesn't understand English, even if she tried it was a waste of time."What going on here?" I asked on my way down the stairs."Ohh uh, it nothing, Mr knight." Kathleen said as she faced my way."Devo prenderle il servizio da pranzo, signore?" Nina asked. (Should I get the dinning set for you, sir?) "Sì Nina, impostalo per due." I re
Kathleen povI haven't seen Jason all morning and I haven't heard from Derek when he left my office to his. I I had to cancel his appointment in the morning thinking he would be late today but not this late. I wanted to call Ariel to check up on Jason but I changed my mind.It was lunch hour and I had made plans to meet up with Lydia for lunch.As I was about leaving, Derek came into my office with a confused look written across his face."Jason isn't in his office, has he being here this morning?" He asked.I shook my head. "Nope not even a call or message from him. I am staring to get worried, Mr Derek."He sighed deeply and shook his head. "I have to hear from Ariel."He brought out his phone from his pocket and dialed ariel's number.She didn't answer the call at first but called back a second."Jason hasn't been to the company this morning, Ariel." Derek informed. And I couldn't hear what her reply. "What? He is fucking sleeping by this time of the day? Are you sure of what you
Kathleen povI arrived at the company three minutes earlier, sure Jason won't be here before me.I went to my office to get Jason scheduled ready for today.I placed my pruse on the desk and went to make a cup of coffee for myself.After making the coffee, I starred it but almost got in on my clothes when I got startled by the knock on my office."Ohh sorry, I didn't mean to startle you like that." Lydia said as she walked into my office."Ohh don't worry, I didn't get my clothes stained." I said and walked to my desk. "Coffee?""Yeah please, I really need it." She said and sat down. I when back to make coffee for Lydia."So how are you doing?" She asked.I nodded. "Am good. You're early today.""I am always early if you haven't noticed it." Lydia said and crossed her legs.I brought the cup of coffee to her and handed it to her."Is Mr knight in his office?" she asked."Nope I don't think so." I replied."Hmm, I kinda of thought he do come early to work everyday.""He is the boss, he
