The tour of the mansion left Spence a tip of amazement compared to how he felt walking through the gigantic doors of Zillow Jade.
The thought of having absolute control over such a place left him in awe.
May be he should have asked his father for one year not a month.
Zillow Jade was a Fourty -eight storey building which other medium sized enterprises are partnering with them and setting up their branch in their complex.
The waterfall at the entrance enticed Spence that he was tempted to drop by and take a snapshot.
To his joy and relief his blabber mouth boss Taylor Stone didn't show up with them.
About twenty of them himself included marched into the company all dressed in a blue custom made shirt with VV customer service engraved on it.
They were led by a security personnel to a corner on the ground floor which will be where they take customer service and complaints.
Seeing many smartly dressed permanent staffs of Zillow Jade, his companion Gale was almost drooling.
" Oh! My dream is to use one of those tags one-day" Gale said facing Spence and stretching forward his hands towards two ladies walking up towards the elevator by the west wing.
" Do they earn that well?" Spence asked cluelessly
Gale looked at him with amusing expression
" Dude! You seem really clueless for your cute face" Gale said teasingly
Spence smiled uncomfortably,he was used to people commending his looks but pitying his wretchedness.
" I am Gale Hart" the lanky man said stretching out his hand
" Spence Wellington" Spence reciprocated by shaking his outstretched hand
" You look handsome, your name sounds rich and you seem eloquent with your voice, you will be very famous with the ladies in no time" Gale said as a matter of fact
Spence didn't know how to respond to the compliment, he wasn't even sure he cared about his looks at the moment
" Thank you,how long have you been working for VV?" Spence asked changing the subject
" About four months I think " Gale said playfully
Spence was about to ask more questions when their supervisor turned to him
" I know you are new here,I will pair you with someone for the week,watch how others handle it first" the supervisor said
" Let me put him through ma'am " Gale volunteered joyfully
" Okay Mr Hart" the supervisor said and walked away
Spence smiled pleasantly,he knew he had just made a friend
" Dude,you are going to be my magnet today" Gale said excitedly
" Magnet?" Spence questioned as he was confused
" The ladies will swarm us like bees,they love cute face " Gale said playfully
Spence was about to tell him he wasn't looking bad either but he knew it would just be a flattery
Gale Hart didn't have the good looks but he at least maintained his lanky body which his girlfriend finds attractive.
" I met my girlfriend here three months ago" Gale said happily blushing furiously
"Good for you man" Spence said
" What about yours? I am sure you have a lot of girls dying over you" Gale asked curiously
"Lol....I got in a messy divorce recently " Spence said swallowing bitterly
" Dude! You were married! You strike me as a playboy " Gale said bluntly
Spence just kept smiling,Gale seem to be a free thinker, he kinda of like him already
" Why would she loose a diamond like you?" Gale asked curiously
" She jilted me for my boss, got pregnant,got engaged,I got fired,end of story" Spence said hastily
" Oh! Sorry about that dude" Gale said patting his shoulder
"Thank you " Spence said pleasantly
" Was she----" Gale started but was cut off by an approaching customer
" Good morning" a caramel skinned lady said facing Spence
" Good morning ma'am" Gale and Spence chorused
" I would like to lodge a complain about the hair shampoo I bought few weeks ago " the lady said softly trying hard to sound seductively appealing to Spence
" Meet one of those two customer services at the last end over there ma'am,they handle that" Gale said politely
" Are you new here? I haven't seen you before " the lady said addressing Spence ignoring Gale's directive
" I- I just resume w-work here today" Spence stuttered feeling uncomfortable by her intent stare
" I thought as much, you look handsome by the way" the lady said bluntly making Spence blush embarrassed
"T-thank you ma'am" Spence responded softly
" I will be off then, hope to see you again charming prince " the lady whispered which only Spence and Gale could hear,she left as Gale had directed her completely ignoring him
" Told you the girls will be swarming around you dude" Gale said mockingly
" She gave me goosebumps " Spence said and they both laughed wholeheartedly.
Before their lunch hours, both Gale and Spence were already exhausted, as Gale had proclaimed, ladies were swarming around them just to have Spence talk to them
He felt comfortable only because Gale doesn't look like a jealous type so that rather made jokes about it all
To his amazement the restaurant cafeteria chef gave him extra plate of food just for being goodlooking which he shared with nonchalant Gale.
The special treatment wasn't new to him, he had always gotten an ounce of it at Golden Fingers too
The same reason why the backlash of his wife 's betrayal seem to be known by almost everyone over there.
"The charming contract guy" was the topic of the gossip because he was a well known face.
" Can't we move beyond the first floor?" Spence asked Gale while munching on his sausage
" Dude! don't you get it,we are bottom feeders,we would need special authorization to walk into that elevator or climb the stairs" Gale said and Spence nodded in understanding.
" I heard the heir Ryan has returned,the stand in will soon step down" a blonde haired girl whispered to her friends
" I even heard a rumour that she is dying" another said
" Well for me I feel indifferent, I don't like her overall personality,it rubs me the wrong way but her policies favours the company and staffs,she has other's interst at heart " an African American lady said
" I agree with you " a petite brunette interjected.
Spence listened with rapt attention, he had figured out something
The best place in Zillow Jade to get your fill of gossips is in the cafeteria .
Alice Brown picked up her Gucci bag and walked majestically into her son in-law 's mansion She smiled satisfactorily at the fact that Maya made her proud eventually.Not that she blamed her innocent damsel for her mere mistake She would rather hate the wretched Spence for seducing her daughter with his good looks.In her younger days,Alice chose to marry Mr Brown for his money despite her undying love for Peter.She was glad she followed her logical reasoning than her silly heart.Who knew what countryside she would be rotten in as a farmer's wife.The thought of it irks her.The butler rushed out to ursher her into the house much to her delight.Maya waited for her mother at the doorThey hugged each other lovingly and Alice kept blabbing about one thousand reasons why being the fiancee of the CEO of Golden Fingers supercedes her tittle of being a wife to a nameless goodlooking leach.Maya couldn't be more proud of herself as her mother showered her with praisesThe Grey mansion i
" I do not think we need to debate over this issue any longer, she needs to step down as we proposed"Mr Snape a tubby bald man said adjusting his eyeglasses in a gesture to show his seriousness " And why do you think we should all agree with your inhumane proposal" another lanky man responded from the other end of the conference table." Inhumane! are we supposed to watch the company fold up because of one unhealthy wench" another woman said. Pandemonium broke loose among the board of directors of Zillow Jade as the forceful resignation of Selena Hale from being the CEO was being debated admist her illness rumour.Selena strolled into Zillow Jade' s main entrance in her well tailored fashionable gown with her tigerskinned four inches heel.Her makeup would have been referred to as hideous if not that it fits in well with her personality.Her channel bag kept dangling side by side as she made her grand entrance as alwaysAt the sight of her Gale pinched Spence and gestured towards h
" Excuse me,I want to lodge a complaint about a cortex I bought few days ago " a petite brunette lady said softly smiling awkwardly at Spence.Spence felt uncomfortable under her scrutinizing gaze" what is wrong with it ma'am?" he asked curtly.Oddly enough the lady smiled revealing her overly glaring gap tooth" Where is Gale?" She asked him in whispers Spence's expression darkened as she was wondering what she was playing at" You must be the Spence Wellington with the good looks that he keeps yapping about " she added sweetly Spence was about to ask her of her identity when she streched forth her hand" I am Penelope, Gale's girlfriend " she said smiling sheepishly.Spence smiled pleasantly in response,he could see why she clicked instantly with Gale,they were both garrulous pair.Spence shook her hand " it is a pleasure meeting you" he responded instantly " The pleasure is mine " Where is Gale?" She asked curiously" She left for the restroom " Spence responded curtly " Pen you ar
" Ryan let us play hide and seek" young Selena said smiling pleasantly at Ryan who smiled back excitedly" What should I do?" Ryan asked munching his hamburger staining his lips with jam" I will hide in the ally over there and you need to find me" Young Selena ordered Ryan followed her closely behind,the scene changed and the older Selena was at the top of a cliff" Help me Ryan!" She screamed and a young man in his late twenties watched unreactive to her " I am sorry Ryan" Selena pleaded and jolted awake. She looked all around her,she had fallen asleep on the couch in Peter's roomPeter just stared blankly at her " are you okay?" He asked confused as sweat trickled down her forehead." Just a silly nightmare" she responded nonchalantly picking up her handbag." That couch costs a fortune it repels nightmares, probably it didn't like your drool" Peter joked laughing Selena scoffed hysterically" I do not drool in my sleep old man " She said eyeing him and smiling along"But you did
Maya felt sticky wet in her core,she had to excuse herself from the dinner to the bathroom as she felt constipated.She lifted up her dress but to her dismay dark red blood trickled down her legs. Her heart thumped loudly as she screamed out her fiance Leonard 's name.Leonard felt reluctant to heed her call at first but did anyways as Alice's gaze never left him.He knew the old hag couldn't be deceived by mere niceness.He rushed up to her and to his utter bewilderment he said the trail of bloodline trickling down her legs.He rushed back to the dinning room and got his car keys alerting Alice of the problem she quickly jumped off her feet to save the situation.Maya's heart couldn't stop tending towards the negativity of loosing her pregnancy.They drove to the hospital and she was wheeled into the emergency unit while Alice and Leonard stayed in the reception pacing nervously around.In the VIP section of the emergency unit Maya kept agitating over not miscarrying her feotus " Do
" Leo! Our baby survived" Maya screamed joyfully making Leonard heave a sigh of relief.It would have been unfortunate if the pretty faced daisy looses his baby, he might not have much use for her anymore." That's great news, I will call you later, I am in a business meeting" he said dryly and cut the call.Bella eyed him but didn't say a word,she waited patiently for his call to endLeonard dropped his phone and moved close to Bella holding her waist in his hands " so...where were we" he said seductively but Bella disentangled herself from him instantly " I lost my appetite for a fantasy" she said picking up her bag " another time maybe"Leonard felt bad, he knew he was about to loose her offer at the same time he hated being tossed about by a mere personal assistant " I told you I was in a bit of a pickle" he responded desperately " I do not resent you Mr Grey, for you to understand my heart,here is the invite " she reached into her Louis Vuitton bag and handed him a fancy envelo
Spence rolled up his sleeves neatly ,he was too distracted by his thoughts to notice Drey's enthusiasm.The events of the previous day kept churning in his head " I did it because I need you to become a famous face soon enough, your steady method sucks brother" Selena had responded nonchalantly." Aren't you part of the waiters?" A lanky bald man in his late fifties asked jolting him out of his trance." Yes I am, along with him" he responded dragging along Dray's hands " we are from VV customer service" he said confidently." Come with me" the man said and they walked on. For the first time Spence was seeing beyond the first floor of Zillow Jade.He looked around with mixed emotions as they walked into the elevator and the man pressed on for the fifth floor." We have your costumes ready over there, just change into them and smile brightly at the guests,we already hired professional food catering company to take care of the rest" he briefed them rather hastily,he seem to hate his giv
Maya plastered a fake smile on her face despite she felt uneasiness from the pit of her stomach, why was Spence here of all places?Leonard's word had rolled out of his tongue carelessly towards him " you always manage to look good even in rags" he jeered.Spence didn't seem to care about his insultive compliment but rather he treated them like complete strangers, especially her,he ignored her totally." That woman looks so stunning" Spence turned as his amber eyed partner whispered into his ears grimming foolishly.He threw him a dirty glare and looked ahead to welcome the next guest. To his displeasure Selena Hale his sister stood there looking in between him and the amber eyed guy Caleb.For few seconds, she glared at them, smiled awkwardly and walked inside with Bella trotting after her." Miss Hale you see I chose the best of them for the entrance" Bella said smiling satisfactorily as they walked in despite they were still within earshot of Spence and Caleb." She gives me goosebu
