Samantha Downs ~“Three months, Sam. Three months.” with his American accent putting emphasis on every word.”“... You are free to stay and have dinner with me though.” Jaden offfered and from where I stood, I could feel his breath on my neck. He is right behind me.Jaden walked to the door and the men there gave way for him. He opened the door eyes glued on Sam but she didn’t look at him. She just walked out.“You,” Jaden called out pointing to one of the duo. “Get her back home and give her a three-hundred thousand dollar cheque. Tell her it’s for her wardrobe change. And bag her up too. Until I can trust her, I can't risk having her know her way here.”“Yes, boss.” The man left to get to Sam and he led her back to the SUV.Sam didn’t resist this time. Not that she did trust them but she wasn’t going to knowing that would jus

Samantha Downs ~ Thankfully, I am the only one who needs to make use of the elevator on this floor. I got in. On the controls were numbers one to ten. I pushed the number ten button and in a few seconds, the elevator began ascending. To be honest with myself, this is my first appearance in this company. I never really had anything to do with KressCo. until now. I must admit it. This company’s taste for architecture can be compared to none I’ve seen. The structure of the building that I had seen in those files and what I’m now seeing, confirms it without a doubt. The cool conditioned air and alluring scents filled my surroundings. It’s enchanting. At the number ten, the elevator stopped and opened up. I walked out. I am appalled to see all the things before me. This office deserves a ‘wow’. I took off my shades and put them into my bag. A section of the floor is reserved for waiting with a row of chairs. Most of the walls I see happens to be made of solid glas

Samantha Downs ~ That man is right. If I keep this up, Nathan would fire me sooner than later.  “What are you doing?” Mira asked snatching the cup from me. “I’m just putting in some cubes to make it cooler. This is going to be too hot for him to drink.” I said in defense. “Thank your stars that you now have a friend like me to help you with getting along with this job. I’ve been the receptionist of this company for about three years and if there’s one thing I’m sure of, is that the boss’ coffee should under no circumstance be warm not to mention having cubes in it.” “For some reason, he likes his coffee boiling hot!” Mira said as she pulled out another cup and got a new batch of coffee. “Give me that.” She took the coffee from my hand. “Give him this.” I observed how she prepared Nathan’s coffee and I must say, it’s the weirdest coffee I’ve seen being made. There wasn’t any sugar or even an atom of an external ingredient.

aNthaniel Kress ~  "No! And don't you ever ask me to do such a thing ever again!!" I declared leaning under her ear. I got back up and headed for the nearest exit. I didn't turn back to stop and hear what she had to say. Was Sam really expecting me to do that? Was she planning on tempting me with that offer? She really does have no idea of who she's dealing with. Having paid for all those articles of clothing, all Sam has to do is just try them out and if there happens to be a deal with something, take them to be adjusted but if not, take them to whatever dump she lives. Somehow, it doesn't bug me that I spent all that money for a lady I met today just because I made her my secretary. I just can't have a secretary that dresses like she earns and works for someone so little. She needs to live up to her position. Maybe hiring her wasn't the slightest good idea. I'm pretty sure whoever Ulric is willing to send would qualify in every way. I w
