The old Emily would have stopped her from making fun of Kendrick. But with the change in her thanks to Micheal, she knew she could never let herself be taunted anymore. She stared hard at Kendrick who was having an unusual smile on his face and smirked. “Emily, I thought people who “own” this company do not need to see the receptionist before they enter. Ah, what is wrong with people today? Can’t they just see those who are more important and those who are not” Rita teases without holding back. “I wish I knew too,” Emily said trying to restrain herself from laughing out loud. Kendrick turned with a sharp loom in his eyes and asked, “Who are you talking about? It can’t be me, right? For I do not miss words with people with short sightseeing” The receptionist had a calm look on his face as he stared at the show before him. It seems the showdown in this company is becoming more interesting. “Do you hear a dog barking?” Rita asked. “I thought I heard one too. Its breath smells bad
“I’m sorry but that is not something an intern does by ordering me around” “What do you mean you can’t do that? You are the first face everyone sees when they come here and you have all the rights to do as I’ve said. Can it be that you don’t know how to do your job anymore? What is wrong with people in this country? How can someone like you be employed when you don’t even know how to follow simple instructions” Kendrick said in anger.The receptionist just stood there without a word and this made Kendrick more angry than he has ever been today.“You are just going to stand there and do nothing about what I just said? I Can’t believe that you are deaf and dumb or something. You know what, I can make you disappear from this desk you are so proud of. Don’t forget that my dad is the…”Kendrick did not get to finish his words when the receptionist interrupted him,“One of the executive head of this company. Yeah I heard you the first time you said that” “Well, then you should do as you ha
Emily stood up with a smile and ran towards Micheal.“Hei, slow down,” he said with a concerned look.“You are here,” Emily said.Looking at her calm mood now, one will not believe that she is the same Emily who reprimanded Kendrick earlier.“I heard something about not caring about someone. Did something happen to someone or not? What going on” Micheal asked.Emily was about to say something else when Rita beat her to it.“She is talking about Kendrick” “Kendrick Jones?” he asked.“Yes, that one. Who would have thought that he is still the same with that trashy personality or his? You should have seen how arrogant he was when he tried to knock us down with his car. And he still had the temerity to try and kick us out of the company just because his father is on an executive board” Rita said in one breath.“Oh, he is here already,” Michael said when he realized, “Wait? Did you say he almost knocked you down”He quickly held Emily’s hands and asked, “Are you okay? Did you hurt you? Sho
Alice smiled without a bit of irritation on the face.It can be seen that she has encountered something like this before.But so what? Now she is the boss and he is just someone who has yet to work for the company.Despite being the son of an executive board member, there is no exception, and she is going to stick to it.“Thank you for reminding me of my position in this company. And I am so sorry if our new rule is making you uncomfortable. But we just want to get to know more about our new interns that’s why the system has changed this year. Also, I would like to remind you that your father is just a board member, not the CEO. This means you and he are all supposed to follow the rules of this company. But if it’s too much for you, it’s not too late to quit before it starts. No one is going to stop you.” She said with a smile.Kendrick would have left to save himself from all these if not for the fact that his father would be so pissed.Seeing that he has no intention of leaving, Al
“So what do you say ?” Marc has lost all the patience he has in him and knows it’s time to tear of the face of this good-for-nothing person.But just when he wanted to do that, Micheal stopped him.What is this assistant of the CEO trying to do?Has this person offended him enough for him to take such a step?He doesn’t know what Micheal has planned, but as someone who has been working in this company for a while now knew what is about to happen.Ana for a moment there he almost felt pity for Kendrick.It’s a shame it came and left as fast as the thought came.“You can help me get a job in a branch company because your father is an executive member? Ain’t you afraid he might lose his job because of your utterances?” Micheal asked.“Lose his job? Is that even possible? Someone like you who has yet to see the real world can never understand the life of the rich. You need to get in line to see what is going to be shown to you. Since I said I can help you get a job then I can do that. You
Kendrick clasped his hands in anger…“You…”“Me what?” Micheal asked with a scoff.“Before you decide to say or do anything, you first have to read the room to see if it’s better to speak up or not. You decided to show off your power as someone related to a branch executive. Since when is your family next in line to make decisions for this company? You and your so-called pride which is preventing you from doing what is right are going to cost you these very minutes. Mr. Marc..”Marc who was being called was drowned back from his thoughts.Why does he have this feeling that this secretary’s aura is as scary as the big boss?Oh is it just his imagination or has even the influence of a secretary changed just because he is close to the big boss?Then this is so intimidating.“Y. Yes,” he stammered.“What are the rules of this company concerning someone who doesn’t respect this company policy? Does it mean nothing to you? Is this how you say you handle matters in this HR? This is a real eye
Siege hospital…Rita stood in the hallway with an edgy expression as she held onto Emily’s phone.It’s been six minutes since she called Micheal but it felt like six hours.Just then…“Where is my Emily?”Venice cried as she walked towards Rita.“Venice,” Rita said silently.Venice hurried towards her and held her hands, “ how is your friend? What is going on? Why did I suddenly get a call about Emily being in a hospital”“Venice… Emily was bleeding heavily. I… I don’t know what happened but she suddenly started screaming and held her abdomen, screaming about being in so much pain. And that’s when she collapsed. I didn't know what to do and called 911 ”Rita said everything as it happened and she felt out of breath after.“This is crazy. How can she suddenly be in such a situation? And where was that good for nothing when this happened” Venice asked angrily.“He… He wasn’t in the house when this happened” Rita answered and answered quickly, “but I have called him and he said he is o
Micheal coldly walked straight to Rita ignoring both Venice and Aaron and asked, “ Where is Emily” Rita seeing the only person who genuinely cares for Emily has arrived,She breathed in a sigh of relief and strolled towards him.“Thank goodness. Emily is still in the ICU. The doctors are yet to say anything to us” Rita answeredIf one looks closely, one can see that her tensed shoulders have finally dropped.“Now tell me..”Michaels was about to ask what happened when Venice interrupted him.“What are you doing here?”Micheal turned and she was scared to her bones. What is this expression?She has never felt her back this chilled before.She quite remembers Micheal had the same expression on the last visit to their house.But since it wasn’t directed at her, she didn’t think much about it.Who would have thought she would one day experience it herself?Is this the same useless son-in-law she picked?“Who.. Who are you looking at in that manner” Venice stammered.Aaron could a
