Chapter 76“So… what business do you have at Maston Corp?”“I think that's pretty obvious, Jerry”“What is? I can't clearly can’t see it with all those beauty obstructing my eyesight”Indeed. Men were such irritating flirts.“I'm off to an interview.”“Interview?”“Yes Jerry. Any problem with that?”“No. I just… feel that my beautiful baby shouldn't be working”, Jerry said, biting his lips.“Well I've got bills to pay Jerry and you are clearly not handling them for me”“You could make me.”, He said with a smirk.“You know I've missed you”He attempted to slip a hand behind her waist but Sasha stopped him.“Keep your filthy hands to yourself Jerry!”“Come on, Sasha. You know you want this. Look at my ride baby. I'm bigger than you think”Sasha scoffed. “Can you focus on driving Jerry? My interview is by 10.30”“It's not even up to 9.00 yet”“And so?”“Come on, Sasha.”“What?! Look Jerry, what we had was in the past ok? I've moved on and you can definitely not get me back.”“Oh really.
Chapter 77The Maston Incorp was a skyscraper building with at least 30 floors. Its architecture was one of a kind with an open roof as the topmost floor. In the expansive frontage they had, Sasha walked majestically with her block heels, folders in hand and jacket on her shoulder. The automatic door opened just as she approached it. “Good morning ma'am”, Sasha said as she came to the receptionist office.“Morning”, the receptionist said brightly. “How can I help you?”“I'm here for the interview”Oh”, the receptionist said, looking through her files.“What position please?”“Personal assistant and secretary. Administrative affairs.”“Oh okayyyy. Let me just get the document up on my computer.”She opened the Doc file and scrolled through then many updated documents.“Administrative affairs… administrative affairs.”, She said as she scrolled.Are you… ummm…?”“Sasha Bills”“Sasha…”, she strained her eyes, peering into the computer almost too closely.Sasha watched the receptionist wi
Chapter 78“Same here dear”, Lena said, eyes on her computer.Sasha walked out of the office, pulling her jacket as she strutted down the passage. She rested the jacket on her shoulder and headed for the reception. She did as the interviewer said and the receptionist filled her details into the system.“Thank you for coming to Maston Incorp”Sasha smiled to reply. She turned away from the receptionist but stopped just before the automatic door. She'd forgotten to tell Jerry to pick her up.“Can't call the idiot now”, she muttered frustratedly under her breath. She opened her ride app and booked the closest driver. She pretended to be in need of the restroom while she waited.Her ride arrived after twenty minutes. “I'll like to make a quick stop by Carte Café,please”********************************Garfy took a flimsy look at the crutch on his left. “Do I really need this?”“It's the doctor's instructions Garfy”“But Boss, I can walk fine. I'm fine already”Asher gave his bodyguard
Chapter 79Davidson pulled the suitcase out from under the bed. Placing it on the center table hurriedly, he unlocked the suitcase. He laughed in delight as he beheld the mints of euros still as crisp as the day the Mafia had given them.Just then, the door flung open. Davidson closed the box hurriedly, his hands going quickly behind his back in alert. But it was only Franrigo.“Damn Rigo, knock”“Dovrei bussare? (I should knock?). Are you high again, Davidson? We share this room”“Please, endeavor to lock the doors”, he said, mimicking Franrigo's accent. “And don't be a pain in the ass.”Franrigo ignored him, his attention on the locks. He drew the little rods and clipped them, ensuring the door was tight before diverting his attention from the door to Davidson and the suitcase on the table.“What are you doing, Davidson?”Davidson had a wide, excited smile on his face.“You see this, Franrigo?”, he said, waving a stack of euros at Franrigo.“You see this? And this”“What is your po
Chapter 80“Oh shit”Her phone beeped ominously, an indication that her battery was pretty low and she hadn't brought her charger. She had her second interview the next day. She held up the blanket, not wanting to wake Jerry. Turning to the bedside table, she picked up her phone again. Five missed calls.“Oh f***. Must be the interview lady”She pulled up her call application and just then the same number popped up. Her phone rang loudly. She reduced the volume hastily. Jerry turned on his side, still very much asleep. If he woke up, she was as good as late for that interview.She peered her sleepy eyes into the phone screen to read the name.“Shit!”A hand ran through her shoulder.“Hey babe”Sasha shoke first with fear, quickly turning the face of her phone down. He kissed her, from the nape of her neck to her bare, naked shoulders, not noticing her surreptitious action. His hands cupped her naked breasts, his legs moving between hers.“Hey you”, Sasha said, touching his hands lig
Chapter 81“I like that you said that, Sasha”, Lena said, her eyes still on her laptop. She casted the screen on her laptop to her big screen desktop and turned to face Sasha.“But I'm afraid your records say otherwise, Miss Sasha. You didn't leave Skyrock, Sasha Bills. They laid you off. And with a pretty controversial reason too. Care to talk about it?”Sasha moved uneasily but didn't show that she was bothered. She straightened herself up on her seat. “I think there's been a miscommunication somewhere, Miss Lena.”“Oh really. From what end?”“With all due respect Miss Lena…..”“Ma'am to you”, Lena cut in sharply.“With all due respect ma'am, I believe your there must be some inaccuracy in your research”“Oh!, is there?”Lena said, sarcastically. “Because, I requested for a report from your office on your work behavior and it wasn't a very good report I got. I still have the document here if you'd like to go through it"“That wouldn't be necessary,ma'am”“Oh, why not?”“Because I d
Chapter 82Riccardo cleaned his hands with a towel.“What are you up to, Signorina?”“Oh..”, Sofia said, almost jumping in shock. “Didn't see you there Signore Riccardo. Riccardo smiled. “Apologies Signorina. Hope I didn't scare you too much”Sofia smiled. “Not so much”“You were…”“Just admiring these flowers”“Ah, the lilac roses ei? Got them myself”“Oh really?”, Sofia said, a bit impressed. “You got it for Mr. Emilio”“Yes. I noticed he liked the scents so I got the flowers from the Magarit Flower Shop”“Magarit? Really?”“Yes. They sell nice flowers”“I know right? I got some white roses for myself the other day. Though, they were really on the expensive side.”“They are bit expensive but I'm friends with the owner”“The owners are your amicos?”, Sofia said, wide-eyed. Riccardo chuckled.“Yes. Magarit's mother. We happened to know each other”Sofia just stared at Riccardo, dumbfounded.“Why are you so surprised, Signorina?”“I don't know Riccardo, you just seem to know everybody
Chapter 83Sofia's phone buzzed. She was across the room, sorting out some files that she wanted to work on at Asher's mansion.“Sei pronto? (Are you ready)”, Riccardo said, coming out from the adjoining room.Sofia raised her head and smiled. “Hey Signore Riccardo. I'm just sorting a few files”Riccardo shook his head, smiling.“You work too much, Signorina. Troppo (too much)”Sofia gave a short laugh. “I don't work too much. Non lavoro troppo. Is it?”Just then, her phone buzzed.“Who the hell is calling me?”, She said in frustration.She picked the call. “Hello?”“Hello. Good day. Please, am I speaking with Miss Sofia, acting director of Skyrock Corp?.”“Yess…”“ Good day Miss Sofia. How is your day going today?”“Good”, Sofia said in an unsure way, a bit puzzled. “Who's this if I may ask?”“I apologize for not starting with introductions. I'm Miss Lena from Maston Incorp. I'm head of staff and operations and I am currently running a background check on an employee”“An employee?
