His Maid I

Chapter 5.

Melanie's Pov.

Why is Eveth calling me by this time?, it's 9pm and it's really rare. There is no way I'm not going to pick the call.

"Hello, you will be working for Dexter for the next three months, since Mrs Corazon will not be around." She said immediately I picked the call.

She must have been mistaken, there is no way Dexter will agree with what she just said.

"Ma'am, I think you are mistaken...Dexter wouldn't want me to work for him." I tried explaining but she cuts me off immediately.

"No, he was the one who said three months, so you can start working tomorrow, I will come and pick you up tomorrow since tomorrow is Saturday. My poor son must be really hungry." She said the last sentence with an awful voice.

I know she's just trying to convince me to work for her son, I will have to do it for her sake and not for his sake.

"Okay, I will prepare myself." I agreed and I could hear her squeaking over there. She must be really happy, looks like someone that has another motive. I dropped my phone on the table as I rolled my eyes.

Miss Eveth is really funny at times, I stood up from my desk, as I went to prepare for tomorrow. I have been arranging Dexter schedule for the next one month, I just finished it now.

I went to my wardrobe as I picked up the necessary clothes I will be needing. 

********

The Next Morning.

I heard the car horn as I quickly open the window to check who was there, it was Dex mom...thank goodness she arrived quickly.

She came down from the car as she looked stunning as ever, having money is pretty cool, I'm just from an average family so I don't know what being rich actually feels like.

I quickly carried my luggage as I looked around the house, I will be back in just three months...

I opened the door as she was already at the front of the door already.

"Good morning." I greeted as she kept on smiling, she replied me by hugging me also.

Is there anything special by moving into her son's house?

She offered me an hand to help me carry my luggage as I declined, there is no way I will let her carry that. I locked the door as I carried the luggage, Eveth already went to the car as she opened the truck and I placed my luggage in the truck.

I felt so nervous on our way to Dex's house, after few years of working with him, I'm still finding it hard to believe that I will be living with my boss.

I'm not sure if the decision is good or not? There will be no need of me waking up every morning trying to meet up with time. But he is going to stress the hell out of me since we will be living together.

I will be getting paid anyways.

"So what do you think of my son now,?" She asked, not this question again!!!

I have always tried my best to avoid this question anytime she asks, I know she wants me for her son and that is never going to happen!!! Not in my next life.

Not that her son isn't good but just that, he is really a jerk a big jerk. She even know the behaviour of her son.

"Ma, he is just my boss and he is hardworking and cares a lot about his business." I replied her.

"Everyone knows that, I am asking what you think about him personally." She asked again.

Huh? Should I really tell her what I think about her son? Does she really want to know?

"He is a jerk, he stresses me a lot!!! He thinks everything is easy! If not because I am in need of the money does he think I will be working for him!!! He will rarely find a P.A as hard working as me...sometime he thinks highly of himself, who does he think he is? A god?" I didn't know when I blurted those words out.

The next thing I heard was the tires screeching, God what have I said? I hope she doesn't hate me for what I have just said!!!

She quickly parked by the side of the road.

We both looked at each other and I saw the the expression on her face, but she doesn't look like someone who is angry.

"I'm sorry for the way my son has been treating you, I never knew it was up to that." She apologized on behalf of her son as she rubbed her hand on my shoulder. 

"Please give him time he is going to change"

 She pleaded, looks as if she wants me to wait and marry her son.

Does she think her son is ever going to change? It is not possible. He will always become worse than he has always been.

She started the car as we continued our journey. It felt so awkward, I thought she was going to talk to me or something.

We finally got to his house few minutes later, it was aroun 10am, I pressed the code to open the door of the room.

"I don't even know the code to my son's house." Eveth said as she crossed her shoulder and rolled her eyes which made me smile.

She's really cute and funny, I dragged in the luggage and we both entered and there appeared the jerk as he stood in the staircase staring at us with no expression on his face as usual.

"Are you not going to greet your mother? Is that how I taught you." Eveth lamented as she shot him daggers. 

"I was about to do that mom, I was just surprised by her presence thus morning. Isn't it too early for her resume?" He replied her.

"Then you should starve to death? Huh? I've heard about how you have not been treating this nice lady over here." Eveth complained looking at me.
