Max POV
I check my time and it's seven in the morning. I know that Asher went to the office before us so I decided to surprise him.
I was on my way to the hallway going to the entrance when the guard greeted me.
"Good morning, sir Max. Why you're so early?", he asked me but I just continue walking to his office.
I want to tell him that I will listen to what he will teach me. I will tell him that I will accept his offer. I will show the world my talent and to him, so he can be proud of me.
I was outside his office when I heard someone giggle inside. I don't know if he has an early visitor but I didn't mind it.
" Maybe he's watching movies on N*****x", I mumbled while holding the knob and twisting it.
As the door swung open, Max had no idea what she saw. Is she having a bad dream or not? Did she see them or it's just her imagination?
She shook her head.
"No, this can't be true.
