CHAPTER 2

Research

I feel asleep while doing my research about the man that my Professor told me. I don't even have a single photo of him. But, based on some previous workers on his company, he is really ruthless, snob, man of few words and a perfect man.

But in my opinion he isn't perfect. No one is perfect. He may be a great leader but he fires someone who just made a little mistakes. I've also read that he really hate stupids. If you did something in front of him, expect the end of your career.

And that's what happened to some of his employees and to Ayen. I heard that Ayen stumble while asking him the first question and just because of that he made sure that Ayen will be kick out from our university. How cruel, right? Just because she stumbled that man will destroy her life?

What if I'll do the same? What if I will also fail? Does that mean, I will lose my scholarship and he will destroy my life and future? No! He can't do that!

Fear and worry consumed me. Oh, no! What did I do to go through this? I just yawn last day and now? I'm stuck with this. C'mon! Where's the justice?

Would my step dad help me if this would go wrong? I mean, he's also great at businesses... Maybe he could help me?

Thinking of that made me lose all the energy I gained from sleeping. I'm not in the mood to do something today, so lucky that today is my day off from my part time and from school.

I have to read another articles about him.

I tried to dig and dig in but even a single photo of that man didn't showed up. Is he old enough? Is he that old to hate seeing his face somewhere on media? Well, maybe. But he's still a bachelor. Nah ah, maybe he got divorced! Yeah, most probably!

Because a young man can't be that successful and Billionaire! It's a miracle and luck if that is possible!

I busied my day reading non sense comments about him. I've read lots of hate comments about him coming from an unknown social media accounts. Probably, they're mad yet still afraid of him. Is that how ruthless he is?

I can't imagine!

I just have a month to get an interview with him! Darn it! I need to do everything and anything just so I could have an interview. On that thought, I suddenly look on my body.

No! Never! Shit!

I shool my head in disgust. What the heck is that? But I need to be practical. No, no, no!

"Omy gosh!" I yelled and rolled down on my small yet comfortable bed. "This can't be!"

I still not know him but I'm kinda afraid. I don't know. All my life, I'm afraid to socialize and talk to someone upper. I kept my low and mysterious profile. My professors doesn't even know that I can pay the whole year tuition fee in just one payment. But, I don't like it and I won't ever asked for my step father's help. I know he hates me!

I covered my face using my pillow and all of the sudden a lone and tiny tears rolled down my cheek. My heart felt in despair. I get too emotional whenever I thought of my step father and his children. I wish I could be treated as a whole daughter but that's more impossible than getting an interview with this businessman.

I pulled my self together and sighed. No time for drama, Crizette. Do everything for him to notice you! It's just an interview. You have to focus on your goal. That's it! You still have a month of getting his attention. Yeah, you can do it!

I tried to convinced myself that I will do it but there's still a part of me thinking negative.

No matter what happen, I will get his time and words. I need to do it! I need it! I need to succeed! It's for me.

I get my personal notebook and pen. I started writing my plan. Plan A to Plan C. I have to be smart.

I thought of going to his company and ask his secretary if I could have a single minute to talk to him. An appointment or whatever it has to be.

But Mr. Wolkzbin already declined the representatives of my university. Yes, that man's name is Wolkzbin. No one has the right to call him in another way. No one dared.

Is he a king or what? King of the jungle maybe. I laugh of that thought. Seriously, Crizette?

I focused myself on my plans and afterwards I take a nap. I need lots of energy for tomorrow. Yes, I will start asking and begging for another appointment tomorrow. Be earliest I start, the earliest I will end.

I close my eyes as I still think of him. I hope he's nice. I hope. I hope so.

Morning came and I woke up early to prepare myself. I have to look presentable although I won't be able to face Mr. Wolkzbin now but his Secretary. I still need to look presentable and decent. After going on his company I will go to my university as soon as I talked to someone who can help me have an appointment with Mr. Wolkzbin.

I wore a black sleeveless lacey formal above the knee dress with a black coat. I also wear a three inches high heels. I pony my hair and put a little make up, literally a little make up. I don't like it when I wore lots of it. It Irritates my skin. My face is already good and decent even without make ups. 

I rode a taxi and while on the trip I can't help my hand not to tremble. I practiced myself not to stumble while talking. But, will he notice my trembling hands? Oh, well. It's not yet the day I will meet him, right? I think so.

It's just seven thirty in the morning when I arrived on the company building. At first I had a hard time going in because of the security but in the end the guards still let me in.

Still few employees are in here. Their real time of working is eight in the morning. I get my ballpen and notebook on my bag and when I get it, my pen rolled down on my hands.

"What? Nice," I commented before following my pen. I was about to get it when my head bumped into someone's arm.

Irritation filled me. Didn't he saw me? Well, it's still my fault. I blew out a deep breath before looking at the man standing in front of me.

I got nervous for some unknown reason as I look on his perfectly made face. He's standing proud and firm. He looks like a greek god! His thick eyebrows are in a straight line, his perfectly made jaw, his nose are pointed and proud and of course his eyes. He has a grey and intimidating eyes. At a second in my life, I feel scared and an unknown creatures started partying on my tummy. Is that what the called butterflies?

"Who the hell are you?" he made me stilled as if a very cold water poured all over me. His voice! His voice is really cold and emotionless just like his eyes. And it's also scary.

My heart started beating fast and loud. What's happening? What did this guy do? Oh, no!
