Chapter 1/The Job

last update Last Updated: 2022-03-21 20:17:14

Even if we don't say it, it's certainly obvious that a lot of people love pretty faces and people these days are really invested into today's beauty standards.

If you're pretty, everyone will love you, and if you're ugly, people will treat you like shit.

Well, not all the time.

Sabrina Clarke knew that she was beautiful, and she uses that for her own benefits, cause why not. Sure, she'll be going on her day and get good compliments most of the time, but every so often those compliments are just some things that she found creepy.

Ugh creeps.

Though, at the end of the phone was a woman. Well, no matter how good-looking you are, you can't always have everything.

“I told you to wait for me next week, because I want to apply for a position!” Sabrina groaned while talking on the phone to her brother's friend Camilla. Camilla was a friend of Sabrina's brother Jake, she was also one of the recruiters of the law firm that Sabrina want to apply at, she and Brina were also friends, just not that close.

"Brina sweetie, I can't wait until next week,” Camilla spoke. “ You see, I really wanna finish recruiting new lawyers to the firm this week, because I want to be on vacation for a little longer.” Camilla added referring to her planned vacation on Bali, Indonesia with her boyfriend.

“Come on Camilla just think about it, I mean, would you rather have me bring you donuts and coffee during your breaks and possibly even help you with paperwork's or, weirdos from overrated law schools who thinks that chess is cool."

Manipulations can work on both genders, just know what you offer, and Sabrina always did.

Well, mostly.

“Okay, I know that this is one of your schemes but I love it, I'll see you next week.” Camila said giving in.

Sabrina smiled.

“Looking forward to it.” She replied.

Winning felt satisfying, even the small ones.

~*~*~*~*~*~

The day has finally arrived and Sabrina cannot be more excited.

Wearing her mini skirt and thigh high boots, she unbuttoned the first two buttons of her white shirt and tucked some of her blonde hair behind her left ear.

She entered the building with her head held up high, unfortunately, Camilla told her to wait in the hallway with the rest of the applicants.

Patience and Sabrina never got along but, there's a lot of people in the hallway that she can judge to pass the time.

Like that guy who looks like his about to pass out any minute soon cause his hella nervous, or that girl that came in bursting to the door mere seconds ago who seemed like that she's just been fucked (yeah, her mind already went there)

Or that guy who's probably a rich ass because he doesn't seem to care about the world revolving around him, nobody has Most likely said “No” to him his entire life.

Sabrina was lost in her judgmental thoughts when she heard her name being called.

She soon entered the room and was surprised to see that it was actually an interview office, and she was getting interviewed for this job. She didn't expect to do an interview, because she thought that Camilla was just going to hire her right away.

Either way, she's going to get this job, and she knew it.

“Ms. Clarke isn't it?” the Interviewer asked Sabrina while giving her a flirtatious smile. The guy sure is young and handsome, probably in his late 20s, 27 or 28 maybe, but it doesn't change the fact that he's being a creep.

Sabrina hate Creeps, but on the bright side, she can actually use this one as an advantage and that's exactly what she did.

“Yes, that's me.” Sabrina said using her girly voice while giving the guy a good look of her gorgeous blue eyes and a bit of her cleavage. It looked as if it worked, cause the guy's breath seemed to hitch.

Perfect, she thought to herself.

Sabrina was smiling like an idiot cause her plan is actually working, but before she can even talk again the door bursted open revealing the one and only Zachary Madison. Zachary owned the firm, he was a friend of the Clarke family, and he's close to them, so he pretty much knew countless things about Sabrina.

Sabrina's eyes went wide as she saw Zachary walked in the room. If there was one person in this world that can never be brought by her manipulation, that's going to be Zachary.

“Mr. Tanner,” Zachary said, looking at the guy who was supposed to interview Sabrina. “Can you please leave this room? I want to be the one to interview Ms. Clarke here.” He added and not long enough the guy was out.

It was just him and her now.

“Hey Zach, How are You?” Sabrina spoke using her cute girly voice while tucking some of her golden locks behind her ear as a girl act, hoping that it would somehow attract Zach and fell for her scheme.

“It's not working Sabrina now let's get to the Real thing.” Said Zach while dropping some papers on the table, looking at her with a smirk.

This is going to be a long day.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

You know that feeling when you really want something as a kid, but your parents said “No”? Well, that's how Sabrina feel most of the time when she's asking Zachary for something that he doesn't feel like giving to her because he thinks that she's not worth it.

Zachary knew that Sabrina gets most of the things that she wanted since she was in diapers even though sometimes she isn't Worthy of the things that she gets.

He's going to give her this job, she just gotta have to prove herself worthy of it.

“Sabrina, stop blinking your eyes, you're cute okay, but I'm telling you it's not going to work.” Zachary

spoke, making Sabrina groan out of annoyance.

“Come on, Zach, I want this job, and I'm getting it.” She said frustrated.

Frustration is a foreign feeling for Sabrina,, and she finds it very difficult to control.

“You want this job, right?” He asked, raising an eyebrow while going through pages of Sabrina's CV.

“No, I'm just here to make out with you.” She said sarcastically.

“I'm being serious here, woman.” He said, without even bothering to look up from the CV.

“Yes, why do you think I'm here.” She replied in a duh tone as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

“Well, this is supposed to be a job interview but screw interview,” He said, finally putting down the CV. “All you have to do to get this job is impress me.” He added, leaning back in the chair with a smug look on his face knowing that Sabrina can never impress him.

At least that's what he thought.

“Impress you huh”? She said, slightly smirking.

“Ye- Yes.” He said feeling a little uneasy about that smirk Sabrina was wearing now.

“I can get you the biggest client in the city,” Sabrina said nonchalant, leaving Zach confused and speechless at the same time. He was about to say something but was quickly cut off by the manipulative blonde in front of him. “And nope, it's not Damon Robertson.” She added.

Zach was impressed, more than impressed.

“Then Who?” Zach asked, intrigued.

“Well, I've heard that the Turner organization needs a great lawyer right now,” Sabrina said, looking directly into his eyes. “A seemingly suspicious client and employee filed a lawsuit against them about illegal document issues last year, and trials are still going on until this day.” She added, talking about her research three weeks ago.

The Turner organization was like the biggest real estate company in the entire state of Colorado.

“Is Shawn Turner still the CEO of the company?” He asked.

“Yes, and I'm getting him as my first client.” She spoke with confidence evident in her voice.

Zach was impressed, very impressed, and he just hoped that Sabrina was serious about this. Imagine what could happen to his firm if Shawn actually do sign a contract with them and this manipulative blonde somehow won his case, maybe his firm could extend to other states as well.

“If so, you have a day to make him sign a contract with us.” He said standing up.

“Consider it done.” She said, standing up as well, they shook hands and soon left the room together.

Now all she had to do is get that boy.

    Standing in front of the Turner Organizationbuilding was like standing in front of a giant.Being only five feet tall, Sabrina hated coming across tall objects/people, and she avoids them as much as she could cause they always remind her of how short she is. “Why does this motherfucker have to be so tall." Sabrina mumbled to herself annoyed before entering the building. The Insides of the Turner Organization was busy as usual, you have people going in and out on doors all the time and crowded hallways. Passing through the security of the company wasn't even hard, but passing through Shawn's secretary might be a challenge. “Do you have a scheduled appointment with Mr. Turner ma'am?” The woman who Sabrina assumed to be Shawn's secretary asked her with a fake smile. “No.” Sabrina responded quickly. “Then, I'm sorry I cannot let you in.” The woman also responded swiftly. “I don't have a scheduled appointment wit

    Anger, a feeling that isn't really foreign to Sabrina, but she sure does only feel it on rare occasions, and it's one of those occasions that she is experiencing right now.“What is he doing in here?” Sabrina asked, sounding as petulant as herself with her arms folded on her chest.“Oh, this is Scott Ackerman.” Zachary said, looking at Sabrina's ex.Scott and Sabrina once dated when they were only 16, he was the perfect boyfriend any girl would want at first then one summer night Sabrina caught him cheating with the girl from the school band and after that instead of going after her and getting her back he just left without a single word and never came back.And now he's here after 12 fucking years.“You two would be sharing this office next to mine.” Zach spoke with enthusiasm in his voice.“Why?” Sabrina asked, irritated by the idea of her and Scott sharing an office

Sabrina didn't say anything, she just sat there speechless. But what's there to say? This is supposed to be about business and Shawn is her client, talking about her personal life would be so unprofessional, and she showed him enough unprofessionalism tonight and that's not what she wanted. “Nothing,” She said, clearing her throat. “It's getting pretty late and since I've done what you asked me to do, can I go now?” Sabrina asked, buttoning the third button of her shirt but leaving the two upper buttons unbuttoned. “Yeah, let me walk you to your car.” He said standing up, getting his gaze off Sabrina's chest. “No it's ok

    Friday, the best day of the week, next to Saturday. Well, at least for Sabrina.For her, Friday is the only day in the week when you can chill and do whatever you want (especially during nighttime) without worrying about work or school the next day.Friday is also the day before Saturday, and that's a plus.Numerous people have their own different favorite day of the week that isn't Friday and if you're one of those people, I totally respect your opinion. Though, don't ever dare differ when you're talking to Sabrina Clarke about this matter because she's just going to shove your argument deep in the ass.Yeah, she loves Friday that much.It's been exactly a week since the last time she saw Shawn, and they haven't spoken to each other since.You might be wondering what the heaven it is she's doing right now.

    A typical Sunday morning for Sabrina is when she wakes up at seven, go to Starbucks, get her cappuccino coffee, and spend the rest of the morning alone.Though, today isn't one of those typical Sunday mornings.Taking a bite of her donut, Sabrina listened to Igor and Ivan talk about random stuff.Apparently, they invited her to have breakfast with them and discuss business.Alas! They haven't mentioned that since they got there. Basically, it was just them and Sabrina hanging out like buds.“So Blondie,” Ivan said, using the nickname he created for Sabrina the first time he saw her, making her instantly get out of her thoughts. “When did you start working as a lawyer?” He added with curiosity evident in his voice.This is a question that she has gotten use to being asked by now.“Last week.” She proudly answered, setting her donut down.“Really?” He asked shocked as Igor also showed sign of interest, but he kept quiet.One thing that Sabrina learned about them (even though she only m

Going in and out of the city to get small, but golden pieces of information can be exhausting and let's not even mention the fact that she had five other clients to assist too.Her life seemed like it's just about work at the moment. “God, I literally look like a twenty-six years old version of Cruella right now,” Sabrina spoke to herself looking in a mirror touching the dark circles

    When Mr. Clarke said that his daughter wouldn't reach thirty years old because of her reckless behavior, he couldn't be more right.Sabrina grew up as a curious child.And that curiousness had led her to breaking her bones, almost setting her classmate on fire, having her dad almost lose a ten million dollar contract, and many more.Sabrina vividly remembered that time when she was six, and she was curious about how her dad's convertible car transforms from a car with a roof, to no roof.She asked her brothers about it and all of them gave her the same answer.“It just works that way”Now— aside from Sabrina's curiousness, she was also adventurous.When she didn't get the answer that she wanted, she sneaked into her dad's car and tried to get the answers that could fill her curiousness herself.She was six that time and doesn't know anything about cars, and the first thing she did when she was inside it was press random buttons.Sabrina did found out how her dad's convertible work, bu

    “Shawn, this is Aria, do you copy?!” Said the familiar voice from the other line. “Turns out that Everett wanted all of us to die, and so he speeded towards the national park from the bar in like 2 minutes, and we just saw the car pass by, and we are now going after it. Repeat, this is a code red, over!” She added, copying the notorious dialogue from the Netflix hit series “Stranger things.”Ivan rolled his eyes at that.“Stop watching strange things!” Yelled Ivan from the other line, making Aria and Everett shudder from the loudness of his voice.“Aria, where are you now?” Asked Shawn, grabbing his phone from Everett's grasp.“We are— where are we?” Asked Aria on the other line.“I don't know! I'm not a local here!” Shawn heard Everett reply.“Just track my phone and follow our lead!” Yelled Aria as if he were talking to a deaf person before ending the call.“Ivan,” Called out to the Russian man as he kept his eyes on the road. “Track Aria Clarke's phone.” He added, as Ivan immediate

    Driving in the middle of the night is something that Sabrina has gone used to.And no— it didn't start when her life became like a real life roller coaster because she became a lawyer.It was already a habit.Before she even got her junior driver's license, she had been sneaking out late at night “Borrowing” her father's cars and driving it around the city.It's mostly the convertibles that she take with her because there's just something about hitting the road as the cold breeze of the night lingers in her skin that makes her feel free.And unlike the other mischief that she had done, she never got caught.She would drive and sometimes— almost even crash her father's precious cars and go home pretending like nothing even happened.She's bad, but she's so good with it.After being disturbed from her make-out session with her boyfriend, Sabrina was now speeding towards her workplace to where one of her client, James Gibbons, wanted to meet her.He said that he wanted to talk to her abo

Considering the fact that her brothers and her father weren't even in the state and also to avoid being a lonely Grinch during the holidays, Sabrina accepted Shawn's invite.Shawn's family were the warmest people that she ever meet her entire life to say the least.The kids were the fun version of angels, and the older people were so kind.One of them even offered her to take her room for the night if she would rather not share a bed with Shawn.To which she obviously refused, of course.Aside from the fact that it was just causally selfish, Sabrina really
