The Ceo's Secretary novel Chapter 7

Jason was one of the people that came to work early on Tuesday morning, which was odd and I being one of this people made me cross path with Jason's anger.

He started with the files that the last secretary had left incomplete and why I haven't done them to why I didn't reply to his last text last night.

"I slept off"

"You slept off while your boss was texting you?"

"I'm sorry sir"

"You don't have to. This shows how serious you really are with your work"

"I'm really sorry sir"

"I said you don't have to! And mind you, I want all those files unfailingly today"

"But..."

"No but. You may go"

I went back to my office with an hectic headache and took out all the necessary files which I knew I had no way of finishing in two days and started going through them.

I met up with Stephanie during lunch and she told me a couple of things about Jason

"I heard Mr Stokes showed his other side today"

"Absolutely, I almost freaked out"

"You're going to get use to it" Stephanie said and smiled

"I doubt that"

"Of course, you will get use to it. Everyone of us did. But I think it has something to do with Dixie"

"Who is Dixie?"

"His girlfriend. His anger always have something to do with her"

I involuntarily spilled out the Sprite that I was about to swallow inside my tray and asked "He has a girlfriend?"

"Are you okay?"

"Of course yes. Did he really have a girlfriend?"

"Of course he does. Why are you affected? Don't tell me you are falling for our boss"

"Absolutely not. I can't just believe that anybody can be in a relationship with that freak"

"I think freaks too deserve to be loved"

"Maybe"

I could hardly do anything right after that afternoon incident because the thought of Jason having a girlfriend still couldn't sit well with me.

'If he has a girlfriend that he truly love, why is cheating on her with me? Did he get me a job because he wanted to cheat more on his Dixie with me? If that is the case, I'm going to prove him wrong. I decided and continued with my work.

The company was as quiet as a grave yard when I checked the time which was 6:32pm and the fear of I being the only one still in the office made me make up my mind and packed some files to work on later that night. And I was about to pickup my bag and leave when the adjoining door opened.

I became at alert instantly and prepared to defend myself if I have to

"I didn't mean to scare you. I brought you burger" Jason said

"Thanks but I'm not hungry"

"I know you are. Have some bites"

I collected the burger, but I made no effort of eating it

"Are you through with the files?" He asked and made his way to my seat

"No but I've packed some to take home"

"You don't have to, drop those. You need your rest"

"Thanks"

"Seat down and eat your burger" he said motioning me to the other chair "and what drink do you care for?"

"Any" I replied

He came back with two glasses of wine and handed one to me, which I sipped instantly because I've been thirsty for some time

"Wow, this taste good"

"It does"

"Name?"

"Merlot. It's my favorite"

"It's Cool"

"So how was your day?" He teased and gulped his drink

"Stressful, thanks to you"

"I didn't mean to be that hard"

"But you were"

"I'm sorry" he said and left to refill his cup

"That sounds strange coming from my boss"
