Chapter 15: Offer 1

" Okay, that is good, anyway he would ask of you any moment from now and he brief you on what you are going to be doing around here, but if you find it hard to understand some things, always make sure to let me know and I will help you out with what I know, so good luck " Mr Aaron said and immediately his phone rang.

He went meters away before he picked up the call 

" Where is she? " the caller asked in a broad scary voice.

" Mr Gavriel, she would be there any moment from now " Mr Aaron said as the call got hanged up and he turned to look at me.

" You have to go now, follow me so I can take you to him, we don't have time anymore " Mr Aaron said 

" Okay " I replied as I looked around my office

' I am coming back for you ' I actually said to no one in particular but I knew I was coming back to this office and sit on that chair.

I knew within me that I have gotten this job.

" Let us get going now " Mr Aaron said as he hurriedly walked out of the office, through the hallway and then towards a office.

He didn't bother knocking as he pushed the door opened.

I followed him from but the moment he opened the office door, I had to pause immediately.

So I did not follow Mr Aaron into the office, so I had to wait until he called for me.

I could hear them discussing about something which seemed to be important and instantly I thank God I did not follow Mr Aaron into the office initially.

After what seemed to be minutes Mr Aaron walked out of the office.

" Christina, you should go in now, remember to answer questions respectfully" Mr Aaron whispered into my ears as he left.

I didn't know why he made that statement but I made sure I encrypted it on my head.

I majestically walked into the office.

It was a little dark inside and I noticed the walls were decorated with dark nature wallpapers as a blue coloured light.

Who in heaven's name make an office look like a club.

When I was satisfied with looking around, finally my gaze met with the man who was sitting on a desk and he looked down, flipping through the pages of a book.

I saw his eyes shined before he looked down, perfect golden eyes which reminded me of the beautiful sight of fire from the burning volcano as it burnt down and poured it golden emits into the ocean.

His hair which was neatly combed fell to his shoulders along side his perfect chiseled chest of which I could see a part of his abs perfectly fitted into the suit.

He looked so masculine and emitted this powerful aura and I could not just take my eyes off him.

' what the fuck is wrong with me and why was I not concentrating since I stepped my foot into this company, Seamus Group of Companies ' 

At that moment, I think my heart shunned at me as I snapped out of my world of fantasy.

I even wondered how I was able to describe those features he had in an almost dark office.

" I have been waiting for you " 

" Have a sit " he said in a deep, broad voice that almost made my spirit pop out of my flesh.

But wait why does this voice seem so familiar, like I have had it before, somewhere, but where exactly.

Immediately the white light were turned on and I saw him drop a remote control on his table as I slowly looked up to his face and he gave the weirdest smile I had ever seen in my life and a loud gasp filled with uncertainty and shock left my lips.

Finally I got to know who the C.E.O of Seamus Group of Companies actually was.

I tried to keep my balance as my knees could not keep my balance any more.

I remember how I made a mistake last night in the bar.

I suddenly realized I was standing in the presence of the man I threw up on in the bar.

I prayed to God that night so I would never ever cross paths with him ever again but no I did.

I think we don't get what we want at all time.

Suddenly I remember his statement ' YOU WILL PAY DEARLY FOR THIS ' and BOOM my knees could not stand it anymore as I took two steps backward trying to balance myself because I would not want to disgrace myself for the second time and u wondered at the same time why I couldn't balance myself because I was good at heels but that wasn't my problem right now.

He looked up at me and all I wanted to hear was ' You are fired, I told you you would pay dearly for what you did to me yesterday right ' but seconds passed and I didn't hear a word rather he looked down like he didn't remember me.

Finally my heart became at rest once again.

At that moment I took a step to go sit down, he looked up at me again but this time around he looked so angry as his eyes glittered like a burning furnace.

Immediately my heart told me that he was going to roar like an angry lion and then I heard the roar.

" I said, SIT DOWN " 

I wobbled and walked like a chicken to the chair and fearfully sat down.

Oh God, why?

" So you are my new secretary? How did this happen and why did Lucas employ you " The boss asked with the visible angry expression still written boldly on his face.

I lowered my head down with embarrassment as I tried to register the very first word he said to me.

He asked a question and I was not sure of what to reply so I still kept my head down as I fixed my gaze on my laps.

" Well that actually a good thing for me, right? " Graviel Seamus, the CEO of Seamus Group of Companies get what he want " he said.

Firstly, the first statement he said, what did he mean by it was a good thing for him?

Secondly, what did he mean by he get what he wants?

Finally, his name is Graviel Seamus.

God, I was literally crying inside of me.

My heart was tearing up already.

His voice made the matter seem worst.

I finally mustard up the courage to say something, I didn't want to go home without this job.

" Mr Gavriel " I began.

" I am so sorry about what happened yesterday night, I was so wasted but that doesn't matter right now " I explained when I noticed he looked up at me.

' she dared to call me by my name, a name no one is this office never dared to call ' he wondered

" So? how can you simple sorry fix the damage you caused? " He asked in a fierce tone as he waited for me to respond but the moment he did not hear any response, her stood up from his chair.

" Can you explain to me how your apology can undo your mistake? " he asked again as he walked towards the window as he stared outside and then he went back to his chair and sat down.

" Mr Gavriel, I am sorry for my mistake and I promise to do any punishment you give to me " I really didn't know when the statement ' I promise to do any punishment you give to me ' came out of my mouth but it was already out because I saw the boss raised one of his eyebrows as he looked up at me.

" Are you sure about that? " Mr Gavriel asked.

I really don't understand this man seated in front of me.

Few minutes ago, he sounded like he was going to roast me alive and now I agreed to any punishment he was asking if I was sure.

" Yes sir, I am sure about that " I answered as I saw his lips widened with a devilish smile.

" You are hired " he said it so fast.

Wait, did he just say I am hired, I can't believe this.

' I am hired ' I whispered to myself.

" Yes you are selected, you are to start work tomorrow "

Absorbed in her fear and rampaged thoughts she did not realize that Mr Gavriel was facial expression and assessing how she would react when he told her what punishment he had for her, which was also an offer.

Christina mind was going rampaged as her thought went far and wide.

But why did he give her the job so suddenly employed her and what punishment he had for her.

Her mind was going insane at the moment in time as she sat in front of a man who's expression could not be read and right now, who was already her boss.

" Sir, if you don't mind me asking when I should resume " Christina asked involuntarily as Mr Gavriel gave her a stern look.

" When you do the needful! " Mr Gavriel broadly stated as he reached out to an envelope as he handed it over to me.

" Read it " he ordered.

" The moment you sign that contract, you resume your work immediately " he added.

I wondered what was written inside as I carefully opened the envelope.

I brought out a slip of printed paper, then I opened it.

' Oh my God ' I said to myself.

What I saw made me gaze at the paper but was actually blindfolded for some minutes.

------------------------------------------------------

Raymond yawned, stretched and turned to his side but he could not find her, he hurriedly got off from his lying posture as he sat down reminiscing what happened last night.

He could still feel pains below his abdomen cause by Nicole last night in her drunk state of mind.

' I am certain she remembered what she did to last night, that was why she ran away with out showing appreciation for what I did for her because she was embarrassed ' he thought to himself and smiled.

He got up from the bed because he had to brush his teeth and wash his face, that was a daily routine he created for himself.

On his way he say a piece of paper which was kept on top of his office journal.

He picked it up and smiled like a child as he got endorsed with the handwriting on the piece of paper.

It stated;

      LETTER OF APPRECIATION

Good morning Care Giver,

I am really sorry for leaving without appreciating you kind gestures last night.

I want to use this medium to thank you for taking your time to look after me while I was really wasted last night.

I was really shocked waking up on your bed but I really appreciate that.

You helping me out when I was drunk last night without minding who I was and all that has really explained to me that not every one is so selfish and I promised myself this instant that I would pay this help back to some one in need of it and that would be an encouraging and great action I will be taking in my life that would make a crucial difference in my life to help people in need like I was in need, and I hope that would be you.

I really hope I would pay this respect back to you, one day when you are in need, all you need to do is to count on me.

I am so sorry for this long explanation, I just wanted to thank you for the kind gesture you expressed to me but I found my hand eager to write more.

I also hope we never cross paths again except when you are in need.

Sincerely,

Nicole.

Raymond finished reading the appreciation letter and couldn't help but laugh at Nicole's mindset.

' So she hopes we never cross paths again ' he thought to himself as he dropped the piece of paper and laughed out loud as he walked into the bathroom.
