Kelsea’s POV~
Shit, what have I got myself into. Nothing worked inside my mind, everything was blank. "OMG OMG OMG!!! WHAT HAVE I GOT MYSELF INTO, STELLA??? THIS IS NOT HAPPENING…", I cried out anxiously, staring at Stella who looked at me worriedly. Oh god! I just want this to fade away like a dream. AHH!!! BUT I KNOW THIS IS NOT GONNA HAPPEN!! s**t s**t! How did I even sign it without reading it? I just recalled the moment of signing…
A few hours back.
Flashback Starts~
“Miss, Kelsea. Here are the papers you have to sign”, Lisa, the document girl said as she handed me the document. Omg!!! I have finally got this job. Thank god! I was on cloud nine, struggling hard to control my excitement. I instantly, scanned the first few lines and the heading said,
‘Work Agreement - Personal Assistant’
She pointed to the places to be signed, handing me her pen. I just quickly grabbed the pen from her with my chilled hands. I was so damn excited to start my job here so I just signed the papers and handed them back to her without wasting a minute further…
Flashback ends~
Present time.
Shit s**t! I didn’t read it fully, how careless I was… My eyes wandered here and there just thinking about some way out of this. Unfortunately, my mind couldn’t process anything as my whole body was tense. "Kelsea...", Stella shook me and I faced her with a just-blank look on my face. "Kelsea, you can't do anything about this. You have signed and it's approved as well", her words shattered the tiny bit of me that hoped to somehow find a way out of this. Great! Simply great! Oh god… this is really not gonna end well. How can I even work under that arrogant ass**** as his fu***** PA? No, no, no… I can't do this. "Oh no, no, no, Stella. Please, I can't work close to him. Please do something. I can do any work here in this office but not as his PA!", I literally begged her with my pleading tone and I wasn't lying to her. I'm glad to even clean the office the whole day and night rather than being his damn PA. Arrogant pr***! I mentally haunted him with my words as I desired. "Kelsea, you don't have to beg me like this… you know I would have assisted you already if there was a way out of this. But we don't have a justification or hitch to quit this agreement", she said slowly and all I could do was scold my as* for being a fuc*** stupid to sign the papers without looking over them. "Stella...", I called and she immediately shook her head as she knew what I was about to ask her. "I guess you have no option other than to bear with him for the next 6 whole months", she said, heaving a deep sigh and I gulped listening to the time. In another situation, these six months would've seemed small but now, with that man, this seems like an eternity… "Stella… I don't think I will survive as his PA. I just called him an i***t in the food court before everyone and he'll rot me if I'm gonna work as his PA FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS???", I squealed in terror, holding Stella by her shoulder. She seemed frozen in shock and her silence made me even more troubled. "Stella?? STELLA?", I called her name pretty loud to snatch her attention and she slowly turned her head to look at me which seemed super creepy. "DID. YOU. JUST. CALL. HIM. AN. i***t?" she asked, sounding strange as she pressed every single word carefully and clearly. "Yes...", my answer instantly jumped out of my mouth and her already widened eyes dilated even wide. "And you are still alive?", she asked, scanning me from all angles. "Ummm… why are you asking so?", I asked her in my low tone as her words sent a chillwave through my body… "Remember you are lucky. He might be new to the CEO position but he has been around here for the past two years. And all of us know who he is. He might look calm and decent in his formals. But he is one of the most feared men in this country…", she said in a single breath and a gasp escaped my mouth. What...Why… he is feared… Who is he? Did I mess up something big this time? A lot of questions ran through my mind and I looked at her, wanting more. "No one who disrespected him survived, except YOU!", she paused with a sigh and my eyes widened. Indeed, I definitely messed something big this time… shi* sh**... I hope that i***t doesn't kill me… Oh, he was sweet tho and why is Stella portraying him this bad… Maybe there is a monster behind his sweet smile… "Kelsea, keep your mouth shut around him for the next six months, don't dare to disrespect the CEO like that again. Or no one could save you from him if you do so…And here, I'm not joking…", she said, nodding at me stiffly and her serious words showed that she was not joking really… So those girls in the food court were murmuring the truth…
"Kelsea, keep this document with you, it's your copy. And from tomorrow you are starting as the CEO'S PA. Be here by 9", Stella's friendly tone swapped into a formal one as she quickly filled me with the necessary details about the work. And, I am still here trying to process reality very badly but I know, I have to survive this as well…
I reached our apartment and I dragged my pathetic self inside the living room as I sank on the couch, throwing the damn file on the table. One sign… only one sign and here I'm about to deal with the devil for the next 6 f****** months... Pathetic… "Kelsea, come on. Spill everything", Skyla looked super excited as she threw herself on the couch next to me. I just turned to look at her with zero excitement. Oh, no one will be excited to work with that arro**** i***t. I sighed as I looked at her with my miserable bulged eyes. "What happened, Kelsea?", she asked, pulling me close to her. "Skyla…", I started and said her everything that happened because of my fu**** fault. And her enthusiastic, cheerful look changed into an unhappy one. "You called the CEO an i***t just for a mug of coffee?", she asked. "Sky, I didn't know he was the CEO and it was his f****** mistake about my coffee mug…", I tried to justify myself as I whirled my eyes at her. "Seriously, Kelsea? You sign without reading?", she had another part to rot me as she jumped to the document part. I felt like slapping my stupid self for doing it… "Ah… Sky… you know I was pretty excited… so I might have just skipped the reading part…", I said, scratching my neck. She looked, ah no…, she glared at me with her terrifying eyes and I gulped. "Your CEO is not an i***t, you are an i***t!", she scolded me with her serious, strict tone and I dropped my head to look at the floor so she won't go further with her scolding session. She just sighed at me as she leaned to pull that file from the table. I just followed her eyes going through the file, pretty fast. And it paused at one point. I focused on her with my sharp eyes as her expression began to change. "Kelsea…", she called my name as she passed me the file, pointing to a particular term. I curiously looked at the line she pointed and my eyes couldn't believe what I just saw…
"CEO, Mr. Shane Booker…"
It said, and this was too much to process for me at this moment… It was really too much… "The CEO is Shane Booker????", I yelled...
