Oops! I Married A CEO By Mistake novel Chapter 5

She entered the elevators of the splendid building of Levisay international. The first fifteen floors were used for hotel purposes and then the sixteenth to twentieth floor served as office space.

As soon as the elevator doors opened on the twentieth floor, a lady was waiting for her outside with a pleasant smile.

“Abigail Mason?” She moved towards Abigail for a handshake as soon as Abigail nodded. She just could not wait to share the news with Molly.

Throughout the night she kept dreaming about her accommodation, or the food she could put on her table, the clothes she could shop and wear.

That same pencil skirt had become trash. The suit she was wearing today was arranged by Henry. He insisted her to wear it for today and she could pay him later after getting the job.

The aloof man who did not seem to know how to smile or laugh or even carry conversation proved to be so considerate.

“Here. This way.” The woman’s voice sliced through her thoughts and she opened a door that had a nameplate of Ethan Hanks (Vice President).

She entered the office and was impressed by the Ocean Blue décor. A man was sitting behind his desk who immediately stood when he found her entering the office.

“Abigail Mason? I am Ethan Hanks. Nice meeting you.” Abigail was surprised to find a young man with a charming personality.

She was expecting someone older with one or two specs of grey hair at least on his temples. He seemed to be in his mid-twenties.

“Hello, Ethan.” Abigail gave her best smile while returning his handshake. Though she did find it a little odd that the Vice President left his seat just to greet her.

“So Abigail. After going through your CV we kind of … could not bring ourselves to hire you for the former position. But I assure you. For this position, you will enjoy working with us. We need someone who is competitive and can handle our upcoming coffee shops where we will employ female managers and waitresses.

In short all-female staff. This is going to be our baby and we need everything best for it.”

Abigail’s heart was drumming excitedly. She could not wait to start working.

He pushed a file towards her, “Here is the contract. Go through all the rules, Ms. Mason. Everything is written there in black and white. But let me tell you one thing. The last condition states that if you plan to leave us before two years duration then you will pay us two billion dollars or you could be sent to jail.”

Abigail’s heart skipped a beat. Ethan Hanks continued, “We are putting so much effort to facilitate our staff that we can’t think of all our finances and energy going to waste. So we will be needing some kind of guarantee or assurance.”

Opening the file when she did not pass any remark, she heard him again, “For your comfort, you can talk to any lawyer you want. But we are quite popular in the market and would never go against our word. Our employee’s self-respect does matter to us.”

Abigail did not need to talk to anyone. She had heard a lot about them from their customers and their employees as well.

A few months back she was interested to work for them because of the handsome salaries they offer their workers but Kyle was against the idea and she could not get the chance.

After the job, she would be financially stable. More stable than Kyle and Chloe combined. She could afford to file a case against them to get back her apartment and her workspace.

They never allowed her to take her stuff from the apartment or her furniture pieces from the private workshop.

She had got a handsome hunk beside her. Now she wanted to test the depth of waters.

“I am in, Mr. Hanks.” She had made the decision but why did she feel as if Ethan Hanks let out a sigh of relief?

Oh! She must be imagining it.

Without a second thought, she signed the contract. Ethan took back the file and stood from his seat, rounding his desk he came towards her and again offered his hand for the handshake, “Congratulations Ms. Mason. Welcome on board.”

“I hope Mr. Hanks that I prove myself worthy of your judgment.”

“Please call me Ethan.”

“In that case.” Her face had started glowing suddenly, “call me Abigail.”

“Nice meeting you, Abigail.”

“Same here, Ethan.”

Ethan called his assistant Mrs. Amanda and asked her to give Abigail a detailed visit to the office. She was supposed to start her job after the weekend.

The moment she left the office with Amanda, Ethan ran towards his phone and dialed a number, “Hunter. The impossible is done. She has signed the contract. Now don’t forget. You owe me what I asked for.”
