Ex Bully is Now My Stepbrother Chapter 10
BRIELLE POVIt's been four days since I started working for Mateo, I still haven't gotten used to working for him at all.This job was draining me.Sometimes he can be very demanding and expect me to be on his beck and call around the clock. It was very draining.He was also calm. When I wasn't able to understand his requests, he explained them to me calmly. I wasn't expecting this, I had expected him to be more of the evil boss like in movies.Maybe his plan was to be nice to me at the beginning and reveal his true colours later on.He probably wants to convince me more into staying at this job so it would be too late to leave, that had to be his plan because I had no excuse for his behavior.I had just finished working and clearing out his schedule for the weekend as he asked, we were now on lunch break.I usually don't eat at the company's cafeteria as I wasn't really interested in meeting the other people. Especially after meeting Olivia.I wanted coffee and we had a coffee maker

BRIELLE POVMom, Ryan and I had finished from the spa and sauna.She had booked an appointment at exquisite bridal shop.When we got there, they took us to a room where we all sat and they brought the most gorgeous wedding dresses out on a mannequin.The dresses were long, looked exquisite and expensive.“So which one do you like between them?” I asked her as we all look at the dresses displayed in front of us“They are all really gorgeous and look so good” Ryan chipped in“Yes, I’m finding it hard to pick as well! I might just wear them all” Mom joked and we laughed.She tried on the dresses and they did fit her as she was slender and petite.“Mom so which one is it?” I asked “I don’t know, I like them but I don’t love them. The dresses are not giving me the wow factor. I need a dress that will take my breath away at the mere sight” Mom saidAt times my mom tends to be dramatic but I understood what she meant. She didn’t like any of the dresses.“So do you have any more dresses to

MATEO POVDad had called me out on Saturday, I found it strange when he called me and told me he wanted to hang out with me later.I drove to his house after breakfast “What is it? Why are you acting strange?” I asked the moment I saw him sitting down on the couch with a coffee on one hand and newspaper on the other“Good morning to you too son” he deadpanned.“It is unlike you to ask me to hangout so just go straight to the point and tell me what you want” I asked“Can’t a father ask to hang out with his son?” He asked, rhetorically.I rolled my eyes and sat next to him“Where do you want to go?” “I have to go out to try on some wedding suits, I just thought it’d be fine if you come along” He said“You could have saved yourself the stress and just ordered the suits to be delivered home, you know?”“I just thought it’ll be more fun to hangout with my son. Lizzy and her daughter are doing a girls day out so I want us to have our own boys day out too” Dad Of course. It had to be some

BRIELLE POV I entered the building and tapped my employee ID on the security gate which enabled me access into the office. The employees stared at me, whispering and gossiping as they watched me pass I’m not going to say I don’t know the reason why, the reason was clear, my outfit. I wore pink office pants paired with a white cropped long sleeve button down shirt, red stiletto heels and my coach tote bag hanging on one arm. I had no idea if wearing such colours were allowed and I didn't care. I saw some colleagues on their phone, looking intently at it. I walked all the way to my office. The telephone rang “Can you please come inform me of my schedule for the day?” Mateo asked after picking the phone. I literally just entered the office, I haven't even had a moment to breathe or sit and he was already calling me in for work. After a few hours into the day. My phone rang and Ryan was the one calling. For an Aesthetic nurse, she seemed to have a lot more time on her

BRIELLE POV“Need any help?”I turned around and saw him.He stood tall, his presence commanding without effort, the sharp blue suit perfectly tailored to his frame. The fabric hugged his broad shoulders and defined biceps.His jet black hair was impeccably styled, the glossy strands catching the light as if sculpted to perfection.He looked like someone who turned heads without trying, even if he had ragged clothes on.I was starting to wonder if all his suits were tailored just for him because they always fit him so well.“How are you here?” I asked, looking up to him.Why was he always present at my worst moments? I watched as his eyes swept over my entire outfit, from my face down to my legs. A faint smirk flickered across his lips, there for only a fleeting second before it disappeared.“You look…”“Save the insults, i really don't care and already have much concerning matters at hand”He stayed silent, somehow I wished I kept quiet and listened to what he had to say.“Why are y

BRIELLE POVMom and I had just finished from the nail salon after getting our hair done.We walked around the mall looking for an outfit to wear for the upcoming family dinner we had this weekend When mom had informed me of her engagement a few days ago, I was beyond shocked. She had barely known the man for a year and now they were engaged“What if he’s not the right one for you mom? Don’t you think it’s all too quick?” I expressed my concerns when she informed me of the engagement “The heart knows the right person when you meet him” that was her replyAnd those words have been stuck in my head ever since, if my mom believes he is the right one for her, then I won’t come between her happiness.This was the first time I was going to meet my mom’s fiancé. I was so eager to finally meet the man behind my mom’s smile. “Do you think this looks good on me?” My mom asked holding out a dress “Everything looks good on you, you have already bought so many dresses” I said “I know, what if

BRIELLE POVShe entered the office and I went in after her.Mateo looked surprised to see me.“What are you doing here?” He asked“What do you mean by that? You sent me a Job offer, remember?” I replied“Which you haven’t replied to since over a week” He retorted“Well I’m here to reply you now, I agree to work for your company” I remarkedHe expressed a face of shock but it was gone within a second.“Well I can’t say I expected this, it took you a week” he curtly said“Great things takes time” I shrugged“So do you want to resume immediately?”“I’d like to be given a tour and to know my duties as your secretary first sir” I said dragging the “sir” sarcasticallyI watched him break out in a sweat. He called Olivia to show me around and introduce me to everybody and also inform me of my duties as his new secretary.That’s when I found out that Olivia was his acting secretary, no wonder she was upset.

BRIELLE POVDavis called me aside and I just knew something was off.“Listen Brielle, I know you and Mateo are not the best of friends” He started..He knew, he knew about our past. But how did he find out? Did Mateo inform him?“If you actually do know our past, you’d know we’re nothing near friendship” I said crossing my arms on my chest.I didn’t care if I might be rude right now, I just had a feeling that I wouldn’t like where this conversation was heading.He sighed then continued “yes I’m sorry, you two are more like ex enemies right now and I’m aware it’s Mateo’s fault, he hurt you and I apologize on behalf of his past mistakes”I sighed, this was going to be a long hard conversation“Listen Mr Caldwell, there’s no need to apologise on his behalf, I’ve already forgiven him and hold no grudge against him, if you’re asking for us to become close like friends or sibling, I’m afraid that won’t be possible” I lied.“No, id never ask you to compromise for my sake, all im asking is th

MATEO POVI was with my acting secretary about to go to a very important meeting when my dad called and ordered me to close early and come home as he has something important to announceHe barely did this so I was worried and curious about what he had to say.I drove fast and got to the house in less than thirty minutes. I entered and met him there.“Oh I thought Lizzy was going to be here too?” I asked, a bit disappointed in not seeing them“I’ve already called her, they’re on their way” He saidFew minutes later, mother and daughter both walked in side by side.I took a quick glance at Brielle and she practically glared right back at me.She looked stunning in her blue dress and silver jewelry’s, I don’t know why I noticed but I did.Her long wavy hair was styled today and it looked shiny, her smile radiant as she spoke to my father but I knew that smile would turn to a grimace if she stared at me.“So Lizzy and I are getting married in three weeks time” Dad announced “WHAT?” Lizzy
