Chapter 9: She Went Cold
Last Updated:
2021-04-09 17:01:12When I first stepped into the company I worked for that morning, I mostly heard people talked about the new owner of the company. The owner of this company has reportedly sold their company. Actually, that hot news was just a month ago.
Everyone thought it was absurd because it was so impossible to sell even though the state of this company was so good. But when the owner informed us about it, we just believed everything.
It is said that he will migrate to another country. Not because the business is already losing money, but because he is already tired of managing it. His children want their father to rest because of his old age. And it because his children are career-oriented and have their thriving businesses abroad.
It hurts to the owner to sell it, but he can't do anything because his children don

I DON'T have a choice but to obey him. It's my fault too. But what he did to me was not right. He was a very unprofessional man. Right now, I am losing the desire to work under his new management.I hope it says “it is an urgent meeting,” so that I did not go first to the comfort room.I was still resentful and disgusted with myself, but I was even more disgusted when he humiliated me in front of so many employees.That man was ruthless, rude, rude. I didn’t care if he was the owner! I was just angry and disgusted with him. He has no right to embarrass me. I kept on apologizing and I admit I was wrong, but what? Instead of listening to me, I was just embarrassed by the shamelessness in front of people.The arrogance!Why is it that of all the people who can buy this company of Mr. Cheng, why him?Ugh! I just hoped that he didn’t recognize me.

[Brad P.O.V]Mr. Cheng really had a good sense of how to decorate his office. This is because it should be the first of all areas in the whole company that are in order. The office was my second home, so I had to feel comfortable while doing paperwork.The office had a combination of dark, gray, and white interior setup. All the small and big things were arranged properly in each area. There are even beautiful 3D paintings hanging on the wall. The big luxury table was placed in an open glass wall where you could see the busy streets.It had been a while since I was just planning to convince Mr. cheng to sell this company. I wanted to buy this so that my other companies could grow even more and then I got what I want. But he had a simple request like not to lay off the other employees. We had a deal, not everyone would stay, especially the managers, supervisors, etc in their respective positions. It's also

AS SOON as I entered the office, Gee immediately looked at me. It was as if he was really looking forward to my arrival. Not only him but also the others. They all looked at me immediately. As if they have to do is approach me and find out what happened. But of course, they are ashamed to do it. Only Gee dared to ask me."Hey Girl. Where are you from, huh? Do you know I'm waiting for you? " He raised his eyebrow as he darted me to my table. Gee is talkative really. He did not also know how to lower his voice.My forehead frowned. Of course, we should have had lunch earlier.How could I forget that?I slapped on the forehead and faced him. "I'm sorry, Gee, I didn't inform you right away. You know I was called, didn't you?""Eh, why are you alone now? Don't you say that one hour you talked with him? And what is it I hear? Mr. Hernandez, and you left the company?"

I kissed his tiny little cheeks and forehead. I hugged him tenderly too.I really miss you, baby.“Mommy…” He was half awake when I hugged her.I smiled. My stress because of work and the traffic was gone. “Sshh… Close your eyes again, baby. Sleep tight. I love you…” I whispered. I caressed his head and then I sang a lullaby to him to fall asleep again.I I sighed.Baby, I saw him again— your Daddy. But he doesn’t know about you, baby. I don't know how to introduce you to him. How you can learn about each other. Will you be angry with me because I hid you from him? Will you hate Mommy if I don't want to introduce you to your daddy anymore?

[Charmane POV]Everyone kept an eye on me. But as usual, I just ignored it. I didn’t go straight to my desk which surprised others, especially Gee. I walked directly to Ma’am Celly’s office. I just wanted to clarify things, even if it's not vague that it's true that I will be his secretary.I knocked three times before entering her office.“Good morning, Ma’am,” I greeted her first.“Good morning. Take your seat, Miss Cordova.” Ma’am Celly sat me down first, then she spoke again. “I think you already know it.

I was startled by my friend's scream and touch. “U-Uhm, sshh… Don't scream, Gee. You are really embarrassing,” I said in a low tone."Ahh— S-sorry, Sir," he apologized to the person next to me.He barely nodded at Gee. Then he focused his stare at the closed elevator.“Charmane Cordova! You witch, I don't know much. Get ready later after our work. You are deceitful,” Gee whispered to me."I don't know what you're saying there," I whispered as well.“Oh, innocent?. Hmp! I'm mad at you. Don’t talk to me.” This gay was really upset and even made fun of me.I would have answered but the elevator opened. So, I needed to cut our conversation. I glanced at Gee. “Talk to you later…” I whispered, then I followed Mr. Hernandez.He immediately got inside his car without staring in my direction. I hesitated to get in his car.

We immediately left when I came back from the restroom. He never asked again about what he asked me a while ago, thanks, God. We didn’t even talk while we were in the car back with the company.When we came to the company, I again focused on what I still needed to know. I needed to review all the rules as his temporary secretary.Oh my! The amount I have to study. My head is hurting. Why should I suffer here? Of all others out there who are better, why is it me?
