Yes, Mr Knight novel Chapter 7

I pushed open the doors to Knight&Son feeling very uncomfortable in my little red dress,that showed more cleavage than I was comfortable with. I didn't go with the holiday outfit in the end,instead I settled on a daring red number that Carmen picked out. I still looked like a slut so I think she won either way!!

The lobby area was decorated for the party with lights and tinsel everywhere. There was even caterers walking around with platers of finger food and there was a bar area set up for everyone to enjoy. Everyone looked to be enjoying themselves,dancing to the festive music that was playing.

I guess it's not as bad as I thought!!

"Jamie..You came!!"Harry shouted,and walked towards me. He had his coat over his arm like he was ready to leave."I didn't think you were going to come tonight."

"I changed my mind."I smiled,noticing the Christmas hat on his head and the tinsel around his neck."You look very festive,Harry."The suit he was wearing was Red,which wasn't his usual choice of colour.

He chuckled."The girls did that to me, they're quite persistent when they've had a few drinks.I was just about to leave for the night actually."

"Oh, Already?"That's a shame-Harry is literally the only person here that I like. Of course I couldn't say that,I need to get on with these people and I need to show Harry that I'm a team player.

"Well I've been here for a couple of hours already and I'm way too old to be partying."His lips curved into a smile."You look stunning,stay and enjoy yourself."

I smiled."Okay!!"I'll last an hour and then I'll leave.I'm sure I stand out like a sore thumb and not in a good way, more like a very awkward way.

"I left something on your desk,just a happy holiday gift for my favourite employee."Harry leaned in and whispered,so no one else would hear him. Not that it would be possible with the loudness of the music."Enjoy your night,Darling."

Harry walked through the crowd of drunk workers and towards the entrance. He was gone and I was alone with people I don't really know.I guess when you don't really make conversation with the people you work with, then you don't really get to know them.

I made my through the crowd of drunk co workers dancing and having a good time,towards the bar I went noticing the tall glasses of Red already poured. I grabbed a glass just to loosen myself up-Lord knows I need it if I'm going to stay awhile.

"Oh,You actually came!!"Jen said,and leaned against the bar beside me. All tall-Blonde with Humongous Fake tits.

Jen was practically spilling out of the same little costume that I had decided against wearing.

Boy,Am I glad that I did now!!

Be polite,Jamie!! Be the nice girl your parents raised you to be even though she doesn't deserve it. My lips curved,just enough."Jen..Hi!!You look um-Nice."

"I'm guessing you decided to come last minute,since you don't look very festive."She looked my outfit up and down,not bothering to hide her disapproving look."Nice to see you're showing a little more skin than usual."

That Bitch!! How hard is it just to be a nice person. She's been on my back since I've started working at Knight&Son and I don't get it."Um-Well thanks I suppose."I looked around the room in awkwardness.

Leave Jen-Please leave!!

"Um,Thanks i guess."I looked away feeling a little awkward.

"I spent the whole day at the salon preparing for tonight,Mani Pedi-Fresh Tan-Hair and Makeup.It was quite the process."The process of looking fake as fuck I thought,but of course I couldn't say.Jen slowly moved her hands down her curves."This costume that I'm wearing cost an absolute fortune-It's designer."

Designer my Ass!!

I couldn't bite my tongue on this one. I just couldn't."That's so weird,It looks like the exact same one that I had seen in that new costume shop on.."

"It must be similar.."She interrupted me mid sentence,totally red faced with embarrassment. I was on to her and she knew it."I'm going to go have a look for Mr Knight."

I smiled smugly."You do that."

Jen walked away in her 6inch heels of death and I was left feeling a little proud that I had put her in her place.Such a Bad Girl Jamie!!Coming here tonight was worth it to see the look on her face though.

I drank the end of the wine in my glass and I was ready to leave,I've lasted almost an hour and that was long enough for me.It was still early enough to meet Carmen and Ethan for Friday night drinks at Lacey's.

I was walking through the crowd when I remembered the present that Harry had left on my desk,I didn't want to leave it behind so I walked towards the elevator where security were standing by the doors.

"No one is allowed up,Miss."The man in the tightly fitted black suit was standing by looking sharp.Damn the night shift security are so cute and very well attired. Hot!!

"Well Harry-I mean Mr Knight left a little something on my desk.He said that I could go up and get it before I leave-I'm his assistant."

He shook his head."I don't think so."

"Well why don't you give him a call and he'll tell you himself?I'll literally be up and back in five minutes,you can even mind my bag. Everything I need is in it, Make up-Credit card-Money- Phone-Car keys.."

The cute guy smirked and shook his head."Alright-Go ahead.Five minutes or I'll be coming after you."He winked at me,before pressing the button for the elevator and the doors opened.

I stepped inside,turned around and smiled at him."Thank you."

When the elevator doors opened again I walked the dark office space towards my desk,enjoying the quite from all music and noises of people chatting loudly.Just like Harry had said there was a little gift bag on my desk looking pretty,I don't really like taking gifts from anyone but since it's Harry I didn't want to say no.

I looked in the bag and pulled out a cute tiffany box and I knew then that it was jewelry.I opened up the box and saw a very expensive looking pearl bracelet. My first thought was it was gorgeous but it was too much. I would feel so bad taking a gift this expensive from him.

"You decided not to wear the costume." Mason's voice came from behind me and I snapped the box shut before turning around. He was sat behind his desk in his office looking straight at me.

"Mr Knight-I um-Didn't see you there." Talk like a proper human,Jamie. Wouldn't it be nice not to be flustered around him. The words that I did speak came out shakey after the fright I had gotten.

Mr Knight stood from his chair and walked my way,as he did I noticed how finely dressed he was. He wasn't dressed all festive in Red like his Father-The opposite infact. Fancy suit trousers and a grey coloured waistcoat over a crisp white shirt. A few buttons were opened and the sleeves of his shirt were rolled up slightly.

I don't like him-Not one bit!!
