Chapter 4_ A new beginning

Bianca rolled her eyes as she heard Olivia and her son Kelvin discussing how they taught the bad guys a lesson..

They exited the mall with a lots of bags which contained things they just purchased..

Olivia who was still engrossed in the conversation with Kelvin failed to see the red car heading straight towards her..

The car's tires screeched after hitting Olivia, the bags she was holding all flew up in the air and landed harshly on the ground..

Bianca and Kelvin's eyes widened by the sight, though the car barely touched her, the impact was still enough to cause a few bruises..

"Mummy!"

"Olivia!"

The red Porsche's glass rolled down to reveal a lady on sunglasses, her face showed no remorse whatsoever for what she just did..

"Blind fool!" she barked at them and slowly drove off..

Kelvin's brows knotted, that lady just left without apologizing to his mum even though she was at fault!

He crotched down and picked up a stone few metres away from him and threw it at the car's windshield..

Olivia and Bianca's eyes widened when they heard the sound of breaking glass not too far from them..

The Porsche came to a halt once more before the door opened..

A slender lady on a royal blue thigh length gown stepped out, she pulled off her sunglasses as she took graceful steps..

Her brown eyes blazed in anger when she saw the damage caused on her flashy car..

Her gaze rested on a little boy not too far away from her, he was also glaring at her furiously..

She approached him in quick steps "How dare you?!"

"You didn't apologize to my mummy.. so don't expect me to apologize to you" Kelvin retorted in a sharp tone..

Out of rage she raised her hand ready to strike the boy for being insolent but to her surprise her hand was caught on air..

And before she could react a slap landed on her left cheek, she snapped her gaze to the person who would dare disrespect her in that manner..

"How dare you raise your hand to hit my son?!" Olivia barked as she applied a bit more pressure on the lady's hand she was still holding..

"You! let me go now! or I'll make you disappear from the face of the earth!" The lady threatened and to her astonishment she was gifted with another slap.

Bianca dropped the shopping bags she was holding to the ground when she read the lady's plate number behind her car..

She snapped her gaze to the mother and son and ran to them, this lady was the daughter of the sterlings, the most powerful and influential family in the country..

"Miss Alexa Sterling! I'm deeply sorry for the damage my friend and her son caused you.." Bianca apologized on behalf of Olivia..

She peeled Olivia's hands off Alexa's hands, Alexa withdrew her hands sharply as if stinged by an insect..

"Don't touch me! don't make me dirty than I already am! you lowly peasants!" Alexa scorned and stepped back from them..

"Get the hell out of here..you rich brat! there's no need to make this an issue since you're at fault why don't we call it even?" Olivia spat out

Alexa smirked and after a second it vanished completely from her face like it was never there to begin with.

"Even? my new car got ruined by your son..I should just stop wasting my time with a pitiful being like your self because I know you can't afford to fix my car in a zillion years! and watch out for me too!"

Alexa turned away from them and began walking away..

Olivia crotched down to Kelvin's height and stared into his eyes..

"Why did you do that Kelvin?"

Kelvin pouted his lips blinking his cute grey eyes at her..

"She picked on you mummy, how could I let her go so easily?"

***

In a large conference meeting room several men and women were discussing among themselves which caused a little noise..

But as soon as the two large double doors opened, everywhere turned quiet as a tall figure walked in, his grey orbs were fixed ahead of him as he was directed to the head seat by a man tailing behind him..

He was the perfect definition of the word 'Handsome' he had high cheekbones and thick dark brows which were furrowed as he took a seat.

His black hair was perfectly permed all the way to the side of his face, his full lips drew a thin line and he cleared his throat to get everyone's attention..

"Mr Sterling!"

He gave a short nod and proceeded to give his speech..

"So as we all know about the two percent decrease in our sales in the last couple of months..I've decided to employ a new strategy"

The man standing next to him leaned next to his ear and murmured a few words to him..

"Hmm" came his short reply, soon after he continued his speech..

The assistant left the room and came back after a while with a file in his hands..

"Here's every little detail you asked for boss"

Damien collected the file from his assistant and opened it, he scanned through it and nodded his head in approval..

"So this is the breakdown of all funds used in the last project and there seems to be a big hole in it..I'll give the culprit only a second to signify himself"

Everyone of them stared at each other in bewilderment, what was the big boss talking about?

A smug smile appeared on Damien's lips, it seems these oldies sees him as a fool but they were very wrong..

"One!" Damien counted and immediately one of the men stood up with his head bowed, he suddenly went down on his knees..

"Mr Sterling please have mercy on my poor soul I didn't do it on purpose"

Damien stood up from his seat and straightened his suit.. He placed a hand into his pants pocket and began walking out of the conference room..

"Escort him out of the building and make sure he pays every little cent he stole"

***

The next morning...

Olivia screamed out staring keenly at her PC, she sprang up to her feet and hurriedly walked to her wardrobe to find a suitable outfit to wear..

Bianca who heard her scream came into her room with Kelvin fully dressed up for school..

"are you alright? I heard you screaming" Bianca asked straightening Kelvin's collar..

Olivia stood in front of the mirror, she placed a white top over her chest..

"Remember when I told you that I applied for a job a month ago?"

Bianca folded her arm and nodded "Well yeah"

"I just received a mail stating my interview is scheduled for 9 o'clock this morning, do me a favor and drop Kelvin off school"

"Wow that's great! I hope you get it this time, and be rest assured that this cute little prince is in safe hands.." Bianca uttered..

Olivia smiled in appreciation and dashed off to the shower room..

***

In less than forty minutes she was already standing in front of the building, she straightened her black pencil knee length skirt which she wore over a white blouse..

Her hair was let loose to fall over her shoulder, she took in a deep breath and stepped into the building..

She was directed to the office where the interview was holding at..

Her eyes scanned the broad room and a small gasp escaped her lips..

"Who do we have here?"

A lady who was sitting behind a desk stood up when she spotted Olivia peering around her office, she rolled her index finger at the tip of her hair while harshly chewing on a gum..

Olivia took notice of her thigh length black skirt and her white shirt with the first three buttons opened showing a glimpse of her mounds.

"I'm here for the interview" Olivia said with a small smile..

"Oh!" Bella moved back a little, she stared at Olivia from her head to her feet with nothing but disgust in her brown eyes..

"I guess you don't need to be interviewed..I've seen more than enough..I'll show you to your cubicle later but as for now pick up those files and send them to the financial department"

Olivia's brows collided in confusion, she felt something was off here..

"Does this mean I got the job?"

Bella raised a brow at her question "Should I write it out on my forehead?! do as I say!" She lashed out at Olivia..

Olivia heaved in a deep breath and walked to the pile of files on the wooden desk, she picked it up and gasped when Bella added more to the one she already picked..

The files ended up blocking her face "Where is the financial department?"

Bella shrugged and returned back to her seat "Ask anyone around little fool!"

Olivia's chest heaved up in anger, she reluctantly left the office with the huge pile of files that were on the same level as her head..

"Hi, can you direct me to the financial department?"

"Just walk down a bit more and then take your left"

"Thanks!"

Olivia set off with the heavy pile of files, she hadn't walked a distance more when a man crashed into her knocking every single files off her hand..

She staggered backwards, luckily for her his reflexes was good to save her from falling, one of his arm reached out to her waist..

Olivia's gaze was locked with his for a brief second, she snapped out of her daze and her brows turned into a frown..

"Are you blind or something?!" she lashed out at him and immediately he retracted his arm off her waist which resulted her into falling on her butt..

The other employees gasped as they witnessed the sight before them..

"Who the heck do you think you are?!" Olivia lashed out in fury..

"Boss please sign here"

Damien pulled out a pen from his inner pocket and scribbled on the sheet of paper brought to him, his gaze never left hers for once..

Olivia's jaw dropped in shock, boss?? did she hear that right? and why did he look and smelt so familiar to her?..
