Warmth!

“Are you cold?” she asked, still patting my back, gently. “No ma'am! I am just overwhelmed by joy! Thank you so much ma'am!” I said, release her from the hug, cleaned my eyes, made a wish, and then blow off the candle lights. “Wow, that is my baby girl!” She said, and I smiled, while we started eating. Soon my phone started ringing, at first I did not want to pick the call but on sighting the caller's ID, I quickly picked it up after a polite excuse. “Hello! How is it going?” Sande asked me, sounding distressed. “I'm still working on it, just give me a minute!” I said, while stroking my forehead with the tip of my fingers. “Are you sure, help is forthcoming?” She asked again, while trying hard not to cry. “Yes, Sande…” I wanted to say more when I heard someone else screamed loudly at the background. “Hello! What is going on?” I said, already pacing around now. “Grandma is no longer breathing, Alex! She is all I have now! I don't know what to do anymore!” She said, al

Withdrawal

"Alex! Who was that wealthy woman?" She screamed with excitement, the moment the call connected. “How do you mean?” I said, puzzled, and wanting to hear more from her. “Do you know how rich that lady is? She is so powerful that, my grandma was picked right at home and straight to the most famous private hospital in the world! Isn't that wonderful?” She said giggling, still excited. “Meaning?” “Meaning, grandma is receiving a better medical treatment in Lady Ave Merida Blackwood's hospital!” She said in a high pitched voice. “I am sure you know who owns the hospital? How did you get in contact with your boss’s mother, so quickly? Girl, you are deeply connected,now!” She said obviously happy for me, but my head was already spinning around with this information. “Wait a minute! You meant it is the same Blackwood's? I mean, the Blackwood's I am currently working with?” I said, swallowing hard. “Don't tell me you are this dumb? Girl, of course it's the same Blackwood's! There

Daughter In-law?

“Now, this is just the right opportunity for me!” I said on sighting him walking towards me. “Please don't tell me I came around at the wrong time?” he said smiling, and I grinned at him. “What! Why will you say such a thing, Chester?” I asked him. “Because that signature smile of yours, literally means something I might not want to hear right now!” He said, peck me on my cheeks before sitting down on the couch opposite me. “Nah! It's nothing, Chester! You hardly come home!” “Mom! I am deeply sorry about that!. I am just so busy these days. But, I will surely make it up to you!” He said with the smile that has earned him the abominable name on social media. “Alright! I just want you to be okay! Always take care of yourself, Chester!” “I will, mom!" "Has your sister called you?” "No, mom! But I did, she didn't answer the phone, and she never called back!" "That spoiled brat!” I said, and he laughed out softly. “Come on, mom! She is an adult now. And besides, remember she

Probably one of the daughter's of those elites family seeking to steal my hard earned wealth through marriage. “I really hope she doesn't buy their lies and life of deceit! Those kind of ladies would do anything just to achieve their aim unlike someone else I know” I said while the thought of her, flashes through my mind immediately.

Trouble With Office Bullies!

"Let the new personal secretary come in!” The voice spoke out from within the office again, and I swallowed hard before approaching his office. I have never been this tensed because of anybody before, so why now?. “Good for her! Boss, is definitely giving her the sack very soon!” Gabriela said and I turned to look at her, wondering what her problem is with me?”. “How long is it going to take for you to open the door and fucking come in?" The voice sounded and I tremble slightly. Damned, his stern, cold voice, is deeply intimidating to the ears. “Good morning sir!” I said on entering the spacious office with beautiful interior designs. He was standing facing the wall. He is the same height with Murphy, and as for the mask…. “What is fucking good about the morning? Miss Alexandria!" He said calmly but coldy that I tried not to show my fear. “Why are you just coming now? Are you aware that this is your first day of resumption? Didn't my friend inform you about the rules? That is if

Intimating Boss!

“Yes, sir!” Andrus, quickly hurry into his own office to make a call. “So, easily?” I questioned myself inwardly, wondering why he is acting like the devil itself. This man is heartless! How could Murphy be friends with such a cold, hearted man?” I resolved to ask him, the next time I see him. “But…sir! Please, sir! It won't repeat itself again! Oh my goodness! What have I done wrong? It must be this witch, here! She is evil, and brings bad luck! She needs to be sacked too!” She said loudly pointing fingers towards my direction, almost running wild. "Oh! really? A witch? That sounds just great!" i said with a grin, and she rushed towards me like someone fully possessed by demon's. She was about getting closer to me, her eyes glimmering with hate, when two strong hands suddenly grabbed by the waist and pulled her roughly along with them. "Mr president! please give me another chance at my job! bitch! this isn't the end of it yet!" She screamed loudly while being dragged away.

Getting Into Boss's Bed!

“First, I was only trying to respect your boundaries, sir! And secondly, I can work with minimum supervision, sir?” I said with a blank face.“Alright! Let's see about that! I have sent some mail to you concerning tomorrow's meeting with some stakeholders and a business transaction with Sung’s corporation. Go through it, and send it to the various appropriate company's departments!” He said, then resumed working on his laptop.“Yes, sir” I said, and then walked out immediately.“He thinks he can easily scare me off? Nah, I need this job more than ever now!” I said to myself before going through the new mails, and I printed them out for easier proofreading. Thirty minutes later, I was done. Quickly, I started writing mails for the appropriate departments it concerns. I was almost through when Sande's call came in. Thinking that it might be an emergency back at home, I picked the call. I quickly dismissed her when I confirmed that everyone including my sick dad are responding to treatme

Why Is He Acting Strange?

“Hush! Did she hear us? I told you to be careful! Alright, I am out of here!” She said, and then stood up immediately. The others did the same.“But I won't mind getting married to my boss! He is so handsome!” One of them said in a low tone.“In your dreams, right?" Another said with a sneer, and they laughed at the said dreamer!.“What a world! I can't imagine being gossiped about this way!” I said, and Andrus grins at me.“This is the corporate world, Alexandria! And in the world of business, gossip moves faster than lightning! Hence, you need to be very careful with what you say or do!” He said, and I paused to reflect on what he said.“Is that why he is this way? Because he doesn't trust anyone?" I said deeply in thought."Alexandria, it's time to go back!” he said, and I stood up, deeply, grateful for the brief meal.“What were you thinking about?” He suddenly asked me on our way back to the office.“Why in the world would anyone think of getting married to a man like that?” I sa

The Other Identity

“Have you prepared the report concerning the inspection of the site?” he asked without taking his eyes off the laptop.“It will be ready in a minute sir!” I replied, almost in whimpers. The hunger was seriously telling on me, now.“What is wrong?” he asked, looking at me, and I was confused.“How, sir?”“You don't sound, or look okay!” He asked and I became more confused at his sudden show of care.“I'm alright, sir” I said, swallowing hard.“Alright!” Please let the report be ready quickly!" He said, and I turned to walk out of the office only for him to call my name.“Yes, sir?” I said, turning back to look at him.“Take this! It's past lunch break already, and I care for the welfare of all my staffs” He handed over a fancy designed bag to me.“Thank…thank you sir” I stutter, deeply shocked by his gesture. With that, I walked out of the office when he did not say anymore words.On opening the packed foods, I was surprised to see my favorite Chinese dishes, carefully packed with ca
