Chapter 13- A New Assistant

1076 Words
" What did you say?" He asked me like he didn't hear what I just said so I repeated myself. " I said…I'm…not…going…anywhere..with you, if you need me to repeat that again I'm going to do so for the third time," " It's your responsibility as my assistant Kathe…Miss Westbrook, you don't expect me to travel for a business meeting without my assistant," " I'm an intern in case you're forgetting not some professional assistant and since you're going to an important meeting why not take one of your staff with you, not me, I'm still under training, you're the CEO of this company and you don't need to take an amateur like me with you." " How would you learn if you're not exposed? This is why you're here, to learn," He had a point but I'd rather cut my own tongue than say that, and no matter what he says I don't see myself going on that trip with him. " Is that all Mr. Vincenzo I've got to report to the intern supervisor's office," I said with a hard face. He just nodded, waving me off with his hand and I fought the urge to roll my eyes. " Egoistic bastard," I muttered as I turned away from him. " Did you say something, Miss Westbrook?" " No Sir," Nothing that concerns your stupid self. I walked out of his office and banged the door as hard as I could, I was going to deal with him today. He should definitely watch his back. I got into the elevator and pressed the button for the intern supervisor's floor as I leaned on the elevator wall patiently waiting to reach there. " Just like that I have to follow him for a business meeting, I swear he'd have to tie my hands and take me with him or else I'd have to change my name from Katherine to dummy, I wasn't going nowhere with him," I said to no one in particular. When I reached my destination I walked out of the elevator to the intern supervisor's office and knocked. " Come in Miss Westbrook," Wait, how did she know I was the one, did this woman have the power to see through a door? I opened the door and got in and then I turned to look at the door like I would see through it, silly me, she must know how I knocked if that was even possible. A girl was sitting on the chair in front of her. " Miss Westbrook you're here? So tell me what did you learn about the CEO today?" That he's an asshole, always has and always will be, but I didn't dare say that out loud. " Well he's a good boss and not hard to work with," I'll have to wash my mouth later for these smelly words I just uttered. " I knew you'd like working with him, as his assistant you have to know what the boss likes and what he doesn't then things would go smoothly for you," Was she going over this again, I just came here to report my experience with the CEO not have her lecture me again. " By the way this is Erika, she's an intern too, just got here," Erika turned to look me up and down before turning back to the intern supervisor, I knew her type, I'd seen a lot of them and I knew how to deal with them. " Erika, would you like to take my place as the CEO's assistant?" I suddenly asked as the Erika girl quickly turned to me suddenly looking interested in what I had to say. " What are you saying, Miss Westbrook? Everyone has where they're assigned to, you've been assigned to the CEO and you should accept that," " I'm not doing anything wrong, I feel like Erika would be a perfect match than me for the position, look at her," That's more mouth washing, if not for the boss in question, I wouldn't be comparing myself to anyone, I knew my worth. " You can't do that without the boss's consent," The supervisor said, " Well, we better get going, I've gotta introduce Erika to the boss," Erika stood up and I could already see in her eyes plans to seduce the boss and take him to bed. Yes, I know I'm judging her, but she looked like that type of girl. " Miss Westbrook you can't…" I walked out the door as Erika followed and then the door closed with whatever the supervisor wanted to say. When I got to Mr. Vincenzo's office I knocked on the door and he told me to come in. I opened the door and stepped in and Erika followed after me. " I can see you're busy Sir, not to waste your time, I brought you a new assistant, an even better one," I said as I opened my hand like an entertainer would do when presenting something to the audience. " Good day Sir I'm Erika," She said, sounding so happy like she had just won the lottery. Not like I cared. " What are you going on about Miss Westbrook?" He asked, seeming bored with my antics. " Well I'm just helping you, Erika here doesn't have a problem traveling with you,... do you, Erika?" " Nope, I don't, I could go anywhere with him," " See, your problem is solved," " Erika right?" Mr. Vincenzo asked as he turned to Erika and she nodded. " Erika, what office were you assigned to?" He asked. " Uhm…" She said as she opened the envelope she was holding and brought out a letter. " I was sent to the advertising department," " Well you have it, can you locate the office? It would be good for you," " But she's going…" I was about to say but he raised his hand stopping me. " Erika, go ahead, locate the office so you can start working," Erika looked like she would rather be here than anywhere but she couldn't argue with the boss. " Okay sir," she said before grudgingly walking out of the office. " You, get back to work," I had a lot of things to say to his face but I stopped myself as I turned and angrily marched out of his office. This wasn't over, I had more planned out for him.
