HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors Finding out the truth
Miranda's POVI stood still, gasping at what I heard but it seemed it wasn't stopping because it took only a minute before another voice spoke. “What would happen when she finds out you don't really love her but instead, you're using her..? Would that not be a problem..?” It was a female voice.“Miranda?” Maxwell chuckled that I had goosebumps on my back. “You know, at some point I thought of it too but then, I can do all things with just a word and she'd go all soft…” He affirmed.“What word would that be?” That female voice asked again in curiosity. In truth, I was also curious even though I could tell how hot and fast my blood was boiling in rage. I also want to know the word he says that makes me go soft.“A five letter word, sorry.” I could read the sarcasm of his words, it made me even more angry. Never would I believe I fell for such an ungrateful bastard but then, I did. The female voice laughed heartily while my intestine churned.“You.. you're quite the joker..” She said in
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors I'd give you a chance
Miranda's POVI blinked severally but that voice, I was so sure it was Edwin but then, maybe it's just my head, displaying how pathetic I am. I laughed, making the atmosphere more tense than it already was.“You thought I would fall for it if you disguised as Edwin..? You failed, Christabel..” I said, belching afterwards. Indeed there is nothing to hide when you're in a bar, knowing fully well that nobody cares.“Miranda..!” He grumbled, clenching his fist.“Alright, alright. I had only six bottle's but it's not my fault, I promise.” my head was already down on the table with my eyes closed when I answered. I felt Christabel sigh real deep and later on, I felt a pair of hands pick me up in a bridal style. I couldn't tell how she had such muscle but I felt every one of it on my body, the warmth it brought when I'm in her hands that I had to snuggle closer for more. On the other hand, something in my head was telling me that I'm with my boss yet I wasn't ready to protest, falling deep
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors Getting back to work
Edwin's POVAs usual, I didn't respond to any of their greetings since it meant nothing. There was only one person that would have made a scene if she was to greet me but that person is in my bed. I thought of it severally and could only come to a conclusion that, Miranda, though she's thorough, she had drank so much because I sacked her. The thought alone had made my morning.“Good morning sir.. The SLL group would be arriving later at noon to sign up the deal we offered.” My secretary informed and I could only respond be nodding.“What of the project..? When did they say they are coming..?” I asked as we stepped forward till I got to Miranda's desk. She would have been doing all of these if she were to be here. Nothing was left except for the company's computer. Her things were gone.“Did Miranda move all her things already..?” I couldn't help but ask. I fired her only because of what she had said but I never thought she'd do just that and get drunk. That lady..!!“Hmm.. Yes sir. Sh
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors Tell me right now you're lying
Miranda's POV“Tell me you're lying right now to my face..” Christabel said with enthusiasm, I don't know why but it irked me.“You should console me that I heard that from my friend” I whispered but she laughed. Yeah, it was indeed funny to the ears that a friend of mine could do that to my face and I didn't punch the hell out of the person.“For real, you're saying Maxwell called you that and you didn't do anything?” She asked again to confirm and I nodded. Accidentally, I had spilled that I spent the night at Edwin's which led me to answer the question why. I mean, Christabel isn't someone that wouldn't ask and she's also a person I can't lie to. I'm an open book before her.“So you need to ignore it because you're ignorant about yourself by getting drunk..?” she asked again, getting at me slowly.“I'm not ignorant Christabel. I only got to hear that crap by chance..” I yelled. Angry because she just told the truth.“Oh really? You think you're not..? I told you Mira, I said that g
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors I'm the winner here
Miranda's POVI didn't inform Christabel about my resume, not while she's still angry. She could rain a curse instead of a blessing. From outside our apartment, I called for a cab and soon, it came.On getting to work, I inhaled heavily, my heart thudding very fast in my body but the adrenaline was far greater. This is a new beginning, a new change should be seen. I stood outside the company, looking at the entire exterior and gaping real loud. I never had the chance to appreciate it before because I was overwhelmed to help out an ungrateful friend of mine.Stepping into the company, I went straight to Zyra's desk with a big smile. She has proven to be different from my judgment. She's not bad.“Good morning to you, Zyra,” I greeted, beaming at her.“Thank God you're here. I have almost become the personal assistant of the day. How do you do it..?” She asked, beaming beautifully back at me.“Just a little practice here and there.” I informed.“I see.. your box is back to where it belo
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors Every of her movement should be monitored
Edwin's POVThe car kept pressing forward after our flight. One at my front, the other at the back, it's a warfront where every discovery is discovered.“Boss, you need to see this..” One of my most trusted said, handing a file in my hand. I collected it from him, calm and nonchalant. There's nothing better than talking to someone you badly want to hear her voice even if it was for a minute.“What is it about..?” I asked, staring at the file that I'm yet to open.“We found it in the hold of the captive and thought you should check it out before getting there. Something about it could help,” He said, I smirked.The entire ride grew silent again and I took the due to open the file. Nothing was on the first page, and the second, and third. They were blank, I frowned. I looked at the person that gave me the file but then, he's one of my most trusted. No one would give me this if they've opened it before but it seems I opened it first.“Bastard..!” I mumbled, still checking through the boo
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors He did great
Miranda's POVAfter the call I had with Maxwell, I felt used and dirty. My head felt heavy but then, I felt accomplished. Every word that I uttered to him, every exchange was what I had practiced to say on a good day but now, it came out fluently.Never did the thought that I would come to drift apart from my long time friend click in my head. Although, Christabel advice on countless occasions that I end things with him.. I would still go back to look for a reason why I shouldn't. He has done a lot more harm than good. All along, I was only merely a tool and not the friend I thought myself to be and he made sure to use me to his satisfaction. Well, I can remember the saying that old things are passed away.. while all things would become new.To hell with the memories I thought we made, to hell with the ones I thought we're yet to make. I was still in my thoughts when Zyra came to my desk looking all worried only to bang the desk and wake me up from my thoughts.“We work at the company
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors Watch me protect you
Edwin's POVBack in California, the night breeze was cold compared to what I had expected. I was carrying that aura I so much dread with the file still in my hands. Rendered speechless.“I should drop you home, Boss..?” The voice of my chauffeur rang in the silenced car but I nodded in negativity.“Take me to the company,” I said, looking out through the window of the car. “There's more to be taking care of.” I mumbled. My fist clenched in a time tight ball and I felt the need to run my hand in my hair.Just how did it all get to this point..? How come I don't know..? “Miranda” I called again for the upteenth time, breathing rather impatiently by the seconds. I want to see her, to hear things from her.That lady; oh gracious goodness. I shouldn't conclude yet, she might be a different person. I hoped.“We are here,” The chauffeur informed me and I got down, following the underground garage to get to the CEO's elevator. And by the time I got to my office, Miranda was there.It looked l

HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors Mr Silverstein
Edwin's POVBack in the day….Stepping on the throttle, we were already out of the mansion in no time and I was having a hard time digesting all that I heard. Silverstein made a move while my family stupidly accepted. They don't know what they're in for or maybe they know and are just blindly going for what they want rather than what they need.“So..” Aunt Sarah started, swallowing hard as she spoke. “There's another woman..?” she asked.“Hmm!” I nodded.There's nothing to hide anymore as they all are making a move already. Miranda, she could be in danger at any time and the only person to help me out with her safety now is my aunt. She's the last person I would want to keep Miranda away from.“Do they know about it yet..?” She asked again, finding it hard to believe. “Maxwell knows as well as Alex. Aside from them both, no one else from the family..” I explained, pressing further.“The Silverstein.. they must know about her to have come prepared with a marriage proposal. Holy!!” I
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors Christabel
Miranda's POVI felt weak, drowned in my own sweat as I ran towards the hospital reception. The nurse there just kept looking at me and not understanding what I was saying at all because I was a mess. There was only one name on my lips, a single name that had me almost disabled from fear.“C.. Christabel..? Christabel!?” I kept saying, repeating the name and bawling my eyes out.“Who is it, Ms..?” The nurse asked but I can't explain, just how can I..? A very healthy person just typed enthusiastically to me, very much happy about modeling for an endorsement, now where's that healthy person? In the hospital..?“C.. Christabel..” I repeated, breathing harder in minutes that I could collapse any moment soon. My limbs feel weak, and my head..? Both mentally, physically and emotionally, I am drained.I swiped to unlock my phone seeing as repeating just a name wouldn't help. I went to my gallery where I swiped through different folders and pictures and finally, I got one that I was looking f
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors God dammed family
Edwin's POVWe both stepped out and frustratedly, aunt cursed In the air.“Those god-damned family of yours, scumbags..” She hissed irritatingly.I sighed too, exasperatedly as I turned back to the door. Was this how it has always been? Not to acknowledge one as a family yet.. “How are you..? Are you okay?” Aunt Sarah called from behind.“I am, aunt.” I answered curtly, turning towards her direction and smiling which she did too.“I know, I know..” She said, “You did well,”“Right!?” I uttered, releasing a frustrated sigh. “You're not really going to do what that asshole said right? You're not going to be paired with the Silverstein just for their joy right..? You.. you're not going to force them to take you in right..?” I heard my aunt query rather impatient that it made me frown for a bit.I held on her shoulder, making her face me as she squeezed gently on them to make her at ease.“You saw it too..” I stated simply. “They failed aunt, they are even more worthless now that I thin
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors A new project
Edwin's POV“Have the new team work on the project with the SLL group; we can't have anything go wrong.” I ordered as I stepped into the company.“Yes boss..” Came the answer while we moved further in till my phone vibrated with a message popping on the screen. For a while, I stood still like a brick wall, with my phone held tight in my hand and a slight grin plastering my face.Who would have thought the whole of the Silverstein family and mine would lay low without causing trouble..? Of course, not me because I expected much. They weren't doing anything not because they can't, time is all it takes.From where I stood, I turned back to the direction of the underground pack. A smile still lingered on yet it didn't do much to my anger. I felt my hands clenched as I pressed them on the steering wheel but my breathing was controlled. These people, they're never tired of amazing me, bringing me to a knowledge of how far they can go and a terrifying understanding. In no time, I was in the
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors Dumbfounded
Miranda's POVMy eyes stung as I turned to leave, it was my fault that I had a wrong determination and false hope but then, I mustn't have taken up to the fifth step when I was held in a bridal style.“Wh..” interrupted with a peck that asked me not to say another word till I felt I was sitting on a soft comfy bed.I was dumbfounded, I couldn't talk but that didn't mean I wasn't still in pain. I looked at the man that squirted before me and felt worse. His eyes bored into mine. I had to look away but it only gave him room to my neck. I felt him nimble on it and became stiff, his mouth was hit against my skin and his wet tongue continuously drew circles.“What are you doing, Miranda..?” I asked myself and came back to my senses. Slightly pushing him to the back and getting up to move but again, he's fast.This time, his lips slammed hard in mine and I felt him intrude my mouth with his tongue. With how rough it was, it was damn passionate. I didn't know when I relaxed and responded to
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors cannot be that greedy
Miranda's POVI arrived at work early so I could meet with Edwin. I know he comes early too and would just leave once it's almost time for a normal resume and then be back as the boss he is to be acknowledged and so, I wished to see him.The day before, I kept replaying the recorder, thinking about what there is to do and not wanting to make a mistake. The same mistake I did with Maxwell, thinking I can handle it all. There was this tiny part of me that wished I never made that mistake and it was all because I was blinded and couldn't have possibly met up with Edwin. I had my own business to settle and after the whole scene and after I realized Edwin still cares even while he's yet to know I used to be his friend in school, there was this particular part of me that wants to become closer and accept the fact that I like him. I came to the term that I settled my business already. It never was Edwin's fault that he left me. He was an outcast and now, those family members of his all want
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors involved with three brothers
Edwin's POVI stepped into the office the next day, and as usual, they all greeted me but I didn't care to answer. They bowed till I'm out of sight, yet, there's this particular one I can't get to submit to me.I found out Miranda was that same girl I used to be closer to, since I found she worked for Maxwell and quit because she suddenly began to care… I became obsessed. I walked past several of my employees till I got to Miranda's desk, she's there, also greeting and bowing like the rest.One moment, I stopped in my tracks and it felt like my whole body became hot and stiff. Shit.. I remembered all that transpired between us, the conversation we had before. I couldn't help it. The energy that was sipping through was that of anger. I wanted to know, to understand and become closer but I guess she likes both of my brother's and would work with them to get to me.How greedy! Being involved with three brothers that were constantly backstabbing themselves. She's going to get the project
HIS PERSONAL ASSISTANCE: Behind Closed Doors I want to tag along
Miranda's POV“Mr Alex..?” I called, shocked to the bone that he was there or might have been there but he seemed calm.“Hi, representative. '' He greeted me, smiling awkwardly at me.“What are you.. I mean” I stuttered, finding it hard to ask a question that bugged my entire being.“You mean?” he scrutinize his eyes at me for a while, coming closer than expected till he let out a hearty chuckle that had my biting on my lips in embarrassment.“I came to see my brother that's always locked indoors, instead I came face to face with his personal assistant.. that works just fine for me. It means he isn't just indoors doing nothing..” He ranted.“Oh, that..” I said back, feeling how hot my cheek is, I can tell they're a tomato red already. He chuckled again and this time, tucked my hair to my ears to have a better view at my already colored face, shit..!“Alright, let's go shall we?” he asked and didn't wait for an answer when he pulled me by my hand.All eyes turned in our direction, th

Miranda's POVIt becomes easier when there's no interest in negative thoughts. The SLL group finally signed the contract and became a team with us. Everything was going just as expected but then, the sound of a knock on my desk drew me back to life and almost immediately, I frowned.“Did I disturb our newly found representative..?” I could tell of the sarcasm beneath the voice. I looked up only to find the company's manager, staring back at me.“I am so sorry…” I pleaded, immediately getting on my feet.He looked more like a person that wouldn't want a no for an answer. Almost carrying Edwin's aura but then, there's something spectacular about Edwin's that this young man here doesn't have. Shit..! Why do I think of him?“No need to be. I just wanted to see the new representative of the company that has been able to pull my brother's attention. It turned out to be you,” He continued. I couldn't help but scrutinize my eyes. He's Edwin's brother..? It was confusing but somehow, it wasn'
