(Bella POV)
"You will be ok alone?" Millie asked as I nodded although I was beyond nervous to be here. My friends are going to work in the company a few blocks away while I work in a big a*s company.
Since it was on the way, they decided to drop me here.
"We will see you at lunch?" Carter asked as I smiled and nodded.
"Yes. Now go, guys. You don't want to be late too" I said as they nodded and hugged me before making their way to their company.
They have always been overprotective and concerned about me after that incident. I know they love me and do it for my good but damn sometimes it really gets annoying.
I took a deep breath and turned to the huge company gates. Walking in, there was a large grass park beautifully set up around the massive company.
Everyone around wore suits and I mentally thanked myself for wearing my collared button up top and black pants. I would have really looked awkward without them.
Well, scratch that. I am feeling very awkward right now. I could feel people looking at me. Or was it me being paranormal?
I sighed and shook my head. Either way, I should ignore it.
"Hello. I came here for the internship" I said to the front desk as a brunette looked at me. She raised one of her eyebrows and looked at me from top to bottom.
"My apologies dear. But internships are not in this facility. You should go to the sub branch written in the internship slip" she said giving a smile that doesn't look even a bit nice.
"Ummm it said the main office," I said as I handed her the letter.
"I am sure you misread it" she rolled her eyes before taking the envelope and opening it. As she read through the sentence her eyes widen. She looked up at me and then back at the envelope.
"Give me your ID and application form," she said as I nod and handed her the neatly kept file.
She looked through each and every detail on the sheet and kept checking ID. She then picked up the landline phone and called someone.
"Hello? Sorry, Sir. But there is a girl here who seems to have internship documents for the main building" she said before pausing.
"Yes. Her name is Isabella" she said before telling a series of yes.
Once she hangs up the phone she looked up at me, staring for a few seconds looking to her left.
"Frank!" the woman shouted as a guy in a suit stopped and looked in our direction.
"Hey Sally, good Morning," he said before turning to me. "And you are?" he asked as I smiled.
"Hello, my name is Isabella," I said as I accepted his extended hand.
"She is going to work as our intern," Sally said as the man raised his eyebrow in shock.
"Intern? In the main building?" he asked as the other nodded her head.
"Yea. I know right. Shocking"
"Wow you must be some genius topper in your college to get an internship in the main building," he said as I gave him an awkward smile.
How can I tell him I am not even in the top 20 ranks?
"Well. I want you to take her to Mr. Blade's room. He is waiting for her" she said as the other nodded.
"This way," he said with a smile as the other returned my file and ID. We walked to the elevator and he pressed the 14th floor.
"I am sorry, I didn't properly introduce myself. My name is Frank. I work as the head sales executive." he said as I smiled and nodded my head.
"Isabella"
"Which college and year are you?"
"Golden Crypteous College of Business Management and last year," I said as he hummed.
"Don’t get me wrong but I am just curious to know this. How did you get an internship in the main building?" he asked as I frowned.
"I actually don’t know. My professor just called me and handed me the recommendation letter. Is it that hard to get an internship here?" I asked confused. Why are they so shocked?
"Well for one yes. But even if you get an internship there is absolutely no way you will get here in the main building"
"Why?" I immediately asked as he glanced at me.
"Well, there is no internship in the main building," he said but before I could ask him more, the elevator dinged and opened.
"We are here," he said as I nodded and followed him. I looked at the path in amazement. The architecture was brilliant.
"This is my department." He said as he paused and showed me the cubicles along with the employees.
"Hey Boss, who is this" a guy came forth giving me a quick smile.
"This is Isabella. She is going to intern here and she is younger than you" he replied as I waved.
"This is David. He is crowned the youngest employee to enter the main building. He is that smart" Frank said as the latter smirk.
He had brownish black hair and a rectangular spec. But he looks nothing like a nerd. He looks really hot, to be honest.
"Well. I can't always take that position and since it is this pretty woman I don’t mind" the guy winked as I blushed with a smile.
"Alright now. Don’t make her even more nervous. I need to take her to see Sir Blade" Frank said as the latter nodded.
'Nice meeting you Isabella. Hope we get some time to chat" he said as I smiled and said sure before following Frank.
We walked to the other end door and another corridor.
"That is the private elevator. It is only for the higher executives. You should never use it" he said as I nodded.
"We are here," he said as he stopped before a pair of the black door.
Suddenly I started to feel nervous. I don’t think I can do it.
"Don’t worry. Remember the first impression is the best impression so just take a deep breath and act very confident" he advised as I smiled and nodded my head.
"Ok" I whispered before taking a deep breath.
"I will see you later," he said before waving and walking off.
I looked at the black door and once again took a deep breath.
"Ok. Let's get this over with" I said before knocking on the door.
"Come in" a voice came from the intercom outside.
I didn’t think twice as I opened the door and walked in.
"Hello, Sir. I am here for the internship" I said before looking up. My eyes widen as I saw a man who somehow looks a little familiar.
But I swear I haven’t seen him. Another frustrating thing is his presence. The air feels so heavy around him.
He on the other hand stared at me in shock. I stood there uncomfortable as he kept staring at me.
"Sir?" I called as he kept staring.
"Arabella?"
