Benita's - [P.O.V]
Loving Charles was one of the best things in my life. We built a marriage that bore lovely children too. But nothing is easy about taking care of my kids. "They're like their father." I said in my unconscious mind as I sighed tiredly running after those stubborn kids of mine. "Can you two stop making mummy run around the room?"I asked panting while they both giggled and stopped running too. "We are sorry mummy" both Sia and Erica replied simultaneously. "Now come here and get dressed for school, you don't want to get late right?"I asked "No mummy, I don't want to get late but maybe this dummy here will want to"Sia replied pointing at her twin brother who glared at her. I chuckled at their behaviour shaking my head. "Did you hear what she just called me mummy?"Erica asked glaring daggers at Sia. "A"I am sorry buttercup, maybe I should still leaving the greeting to later. Here take this, rush to your room, put on the dress and meet me down here" He commanded shoving a bag in my hand. I narrowed my eyes at him giving him a questioning look. "We're are we going to Charles?"I asked. "Do you have to ask buttercup?"He groaned. "Well if you must know, I saw a job interview and its starting by 8am. Just 25minutes left so go dress up" My face lit up at I heard that. A job interview? "Oh my God. What is the job about? Is it a company? What position?" I asked curiously. "Calm down will you? It's J group of company, the CEO is in need of a personal assistant and I am sure you will fit perfectly for it, are we cleared now? Hurry up we don't have all day" "Thank you so much for this Charles, I owe you a lot"I replied jugging into my room excitedly. "I love you too buttercup.." He said. Whate
Immediatetly our eyes met, I shivered in fear. He's so handsome like a demigod. Pink lips, pointed nose,cute face. Grey eyes, long lashes and spotless skin but why is his face so cold? "If you are done checking me out, you might as well sit or get out of my office" He flared his nose angrily while I gulped embarrassingly. I quickly took a sit opposite him trying not to stare. "Good... morning Sir." I greeted stammering. Even the aura around him is intimidating. Now I get why those ladies were crying. "Keep your damn greetings to yourself and place your CV" he snarled. Why's he angry now? I haven't committed any offense aside checking him out. I dropped my CV in his front and he took it. He flipped through it before tossing it back to me. "Give me five reasons why I should hire you as my assistant, your CV is good but you don't have any work experience, how am I supposed to work with you? How am I sure you are not

"Thank you and please call me Benita" "Right and I am StLucia" she smiled. "I advice you not to get Mr. Wilfred angry, he gets angry easily and won't hesitate to fire you instantly. In just a month, he fired three of his personal assistants" Huh? Three in a month? Goodness. Does that mean I will be fired too? I heard a roar of laughter, StLucia was laughing. "You don't have to freak out, just make sure you do anything he ask you to and on time, he hates tardiness and lazy people around him" I sighed softly placing my hand on my desk. Mr. Wilfred is really a big problem to deal with. "Yeah, I will try. Thank you StLucia." "You are welcome, see you later" she waved her hand leaving my office. Now where do I start from?There are lots of files on the table and I have to reply the emails again but first.I need to call Charles to pick my kids.I brought out my p
Charles's - [P.O.V] I came down from my car searching for Sia and Erica amongst the pupils. I am glad Benita found a job, she's strongest woman I have ever seen. The fact that she put herself through hell even so we have everything is like something so similar, I'd do for revenge or something evil, but her strength to do this for our families future is why I love her even more.She have handled everything that comes her way bravely.Going through a lot but she's still struggling for her kids. My eyes caught some children fighting and I discovered it was Erica. He was beating up a boy. Goodness. I quickly ran to him separating him from that boy His face and mouth were swollen while the rest of the pupils were laughing. "Erica, why did you beat him up?"I asked sternly. He looks so angry like he wants to murder someone right now. I have never seen him this way and it amuses me. <
I know I look like a mess but seeing him this protective is really funny. "It's okay, let's just head home. I need to take a cold shower and I hope you prepared something else, I will pass out" It was his time to chuckle. He opened the car door for me like a gentleman he is and I entered. "I prepared something of course, your favourite to be precise, scrambled eggs"My face lit up at that. Isn't he an Angel in disguise? "I can't wait to be home then, how are the kids?"I asked. That made me remember my salary, lord. My eyes almost popped out seeing the amount I will be collecting every month. Five hundred freaking dollars. And I have gotten two hundred and fifty dollars, that's half of my salary Mr. Wilfred said earlier. The first thing I will do tomorrow is to take my credit card to the bank, withdraw everything, pay my kids school fees, renew the rent and buy some food stuffs then keep the remaining chan
I gently knocked on his door with my already feeling sweaty. God please, just this last time. I don't want to loose this job. I heard the familiar coming with his cold yet husky voice. The moment I entered, my eyes landed on him. Not even a glance did he spare me, his face remain neutral like always. I bit my lip trying to talk, at least I should apologize even if I know he either fire me or give me punishment. I don't know why I kept falling his victim, I never listen to StLucia's warnings"I..I am sorry Sir, I promise to manage my time from now on, please forgive me." He raised his head for a moment then back to punching his laptop. Closing his laptop, he focused his gaze at me and I bowed my head. "Sidney." He called. The power in his voice is enough to scare anyone. Who's this man? "Yes... Sir" "I told you I hate people who doesn't keep trac
I smashed my phone angrily, she has succeeded in ruining my day. Like she has done to my life. I entered into my office to discover that the file wasn't there on my table. I smirked heading out to her office, I know Miss Sidney won't be able to finish the work. I will use this to punish her the more. Even me, I will have to use two days to finish everything. I am being wicked right? But I enjoy seeing her worked up. I opened her office door to meet a great shock. She was sleeping peacefully on the floor with the two files lying beside her. The one I asked her to do and the one I gave her. She look like a mess, her hair scattered on her face. I picked up the one I asked her to do and to my greatest surprise, she did everything. How the hell did she do it? She even slept in the office? I ought to be satisfied to see her this way but unfortunately, I felt guilty. Walking up to
