Loving the CEO novel Chapter 5

Knocking on my door softly and slowly entering was Mrs. Wilson with the cup of coffee that I had requested about fifteen minutes ago. "Mrs. Wilson, how long did I request this?" I asked her.

"F-fifteen minutes ago sir," she stuttered.

"Then why am I just receiving it? A cup of coffee takes two to four minutes to make."

"I- I was––um," her voice came out shakily.

"You were um what Mrs. Wilson?" My voice boomed.

"I was–––um," her voice was still shaky.

Sighing, I asked her calmly, "Mrs. Wilson can I be assured this mistake won't happen again?"

"Yes sir," she replied with more confidence but her voice still held a nervous ring to it. Feeling completely satisfied with her answer I left her with a warning.

"Don't let this happen again or you will be fired!" I said sternly. Looking at her body shaking and nodding her head nervously I knew that I had installed man's worst nightmare fear. Feeling satisfied with her answer and reaction I dismissed her. For the remainder of the day, I went through some important papers and folders about the company. At exactly 4:00 pm, my phone started ringing. Looking at the caller's ID, I saw it was my dad so I picked up.

"Hey son," my dad's cheerful voice came over the phone. "Have you purchase the book that I asked for?" he asked.

"No dad I didn't as yet I have been busy but I am finishing up now so I can go and buy it," I replied.

We talked on the phone for five minutes discussing business and such. After hanging up, I finished up what I was doing. Closing the folders and putting away the paper, I grabbed my jacket and was out the door. Pressing the button to my private elevator, I entered and pressed the button that says lobby. When the elevator stopped, I stepped out and was greeted by James. Walking through the double doors we stepped outside and he opened the door. "Where is Adam?"

"To the bookstore, I need to pick up a book for dad." Opening the car doors we both got in simultaneously before he started to drive the car.

"Adam, your recent fling Heather Summers had come to the house looking for you today."

Chuckling I replied, "somehow I don't find that surprising."
