Camela's POV
"What are you going to wear tomorrow to see Mr. CEO," Tia asked
"I was thinking I would wear my blue suit with a white shirt underneath."
"You should wear something shorter," She said
"Why would I do that?"
"Because you have a hot CEO that is attracted to you."
"No, he's not," I replied shocked that she would think that
"He called you personally after you screamed at him in his office. You even declined the job at first. Why would he go through all the trouble if he doesn't have a thing for you?" She asked
"He might feel I am the best qualified for the position,"
"Yeah right! You and I both know that there were a lot of people there that were more qualified. You have never been an Admin Assistant," She said and I knew she was right
Why would he want me as his Assistant? He had told me he had already found the person that was fit for the job. He didn't even interview me. I was beginning to think it would be a bad idea to show up in the morning.
"Maybe I shouldn't go," I said
"Don't do that Cami! You are going to meet him tomorrow. You need this job to take care of Liam. You are smart and a quick learner. You can do this," She said
"You are right! I am going to this meeting with my head held high. I can be an Admin Assistant. It can't be that hard" I said cheerfully
"That's right girl,"
"Now I need to go to sleep so I'm not late," I said and went to get ready for bed
The Next Day
" I have to go, T! I'm already running late," I said and walked out the door
It was 8:50 AM and I was supposed to show up at 9 AM. I went to my Nissan and drove off. It was a ten-hour drive so I knew I wouldn't make it on time. I was sure he would withdraw the job offer.
As I pulled in and parked, I went into the building. I had to go through the security check again. After I was done with security, I went to the elevator without stopping at the helpdesk. I pressed the eighth floor and waited for the elevator to stop.
Once I was on the eighth floor, I went to the front desk and was greeted by the same lady that took me to Mr. Mitchell's room for the interview. She had a warm smile on her face.
"Hello, I have a meeting with Mr. Mitchell today,"
"Of course Miss Davis, right? Come on back he has been waiting for you," She said which caused me to worry
"I will take her back," Another woman said with hazel eyes that looked familiar. I couldn't remember exactly where I had seen those eyes.
"I hope he's not upset that I am late. I know it doesn't give the right impression," I said to her as we walked to his office
"Don't worry about it. He will be happier that you showed up," She said
I was confused by what she said but decided to ignore it.
When we arrived at his office, she surprised me by walking in without knocking.
"Miss Davis has arrived brother," She said and I looked at her and then at him. They had so many features that were alike. Their facial structure, eyes, and the color of their hair. The only difference was that she was a female and he was a male.
"I know we look so much alike. It's because we are twins. My name is Blaire," She said and held her hand out for me to shake. I shook her hand and smiled.
"It's nice to meet you, Miss Mitchell," I said
"Just call me Blaire. I have a feeling you and I are going to become the best of friends," She said
I was confused about why we would become friends but maybe that was how this company was.
"Ok Blaire, enough of that. Me and Miss Davis have a business to discuss," Mr. Mitchell said and Blaire rolled her eyes.
"Sure brother!" She said to him and walked out the door
I turned to look at him once she was gone. His eyes were already on me staring at me, deep in my eyes. I was beginning to feel nervous from his gaze on me. I knew my cheeks were turning red.
"Hello, Mr. Mitchell! I am sorry I am late" I said quietly
"That's alright! I know these things happen sometimes. Why don't you have a seat," He said.
I sat down in the chair across from him. Nobody said anything for a moment. He kept staring at me. I was starting to get self-conscious from his intense gaze. I cleared my throat before speaking.
"I believe you wanted to talk to me about the Administrative Assistant position," I said
That seemed to bring him back to reality. He sat up straight and his face showed no emotion.
"Of course Miss. Davis. This position is an 8 AM to 5 PM position. You will be setting my appointments, entering data in the system, answering the phone, and taking messages. You will also attend meetings with my clients and enter important information into the system. I am sure you know that your confidentiality is important. You will hear and see a lot of important information that you can't share with anyone else," he stopped for a moment to make sure I understood everything he had said.
"I understand! I won't tell anyone anything I hear," I said
"I'm sure you already know what we do here but I will tell you anyway. Mitchell's INC is an organization that owns different properties all over the world. Not only do we own hotels but also Apartment Building. We also own Different Clothing stores and Restaurants," He finished. He then printed out a piece of paper and handed it to me.
"This is your Job Offer Letter. It will tell everything from your position to your pay. All is up for negotiation if you disagree with anything," He said
I looked at the letter and couldn't believe my eyes. He was going to pay me fifty-thousand dollars upfront. Along with two thousand dollars weekly. He must have made a mistake
"Sir, there must be a mistake," I said
"What is wrong? We can negotiate,"
"This says you will give me fifty-thousand dollars up front," I said
"Is that not enough? I can change the amount,"
"NO!" I shouted
He looked at me with a shocked expression on his face.
"I don't need more money. That is too much money. I can't accept it," I said
I tried to give him the offer letter back, but he placed his hand in mine. I felt sparks from his touch. Not the bad kind but the kind that makes you feel warm and tingly inside. I didn't want him to let go.
He smiled seeing the way I reacted to his touch.
"You can and will accept this offer. You will also receive a house and car. I will show you your new home once we are done with the paperwork. If you accept this position," He said and looked at me, waiting for my answer.
I thought about it and realized that this could change Liam and my mine life. Our house was in bad condition and I needed a more reliable car.
"I have a younger brother that I am responsible for. He would be coming with me if I move because I am all he has left. My best friend lives with us too. She will be the one that babysits him for me when I am at work. I don't know if other people are allowed to move into the homes that you provide," I said
"You are allowed to bring family with you to the home and your friend will be able to come as well. There is a daycare that is close by just in case you would like to look into it. Do you accept my offer, Miss. Davis,"
"Yes,"
