Bella POV :
Phew! I sighed in relief as I reached my apartment but soon the sight in front of me left me still to core as I saw my aunt June crying her eyes out making my heart tremble for her.
I don't need to ask her what happened as I already know. It has happened before. She came home and cry her heart out.
Who said working as nanny is easy especially working at agency with a rude ass boss who is nothing but perverted heartless old crap.
Oh don't even ask how I know. Usually when Aunt didn't feel well I used to go at her place and that s**t face, Sam Taylor, the boss, used to hit on me.
Seriously, I was like his daughter's age or even younger. But once a pervert always a pervert. Yuck!
Not to forget his disgusting son, Max Taylor. He is six years older than me. With dark expression and cruel stony eyes he used to dominate me.
Oh he played a true role in making my stay at agency a true definition of hell . He was worse than his father.
He practically tried to force himself on me. Thank God, I was saved that day by a coworker if it wasn't for him, I don't know if I would still be alive. But very sadly he was fired the next day.
I only told my best friend Lily about it and it was hard stopping her from punching the living hell out of perverted duo of father and son.
After that day even if situation occurs that I had to go at that place, Lily like a true best friend would accompany me.
I would never stay in a room alone with Max or any other man.
He made me that much scared...
Bloody perverts! Sometimes I wish one murder was allowed. Oh how I wish.......
I walked towards her and sat beside her on our worn out brown sofa . She quickly wiped her tears with her palms to hide the pain she held in her heart .
Oh my poor aunt.....my heart cried for her.
She faced me with her big smile and asked in her soft voice which slightly wobbled at initial.
"Oh bel baby you came early from work. Did you took an early leave? Are you ok, dear?"
I know I cannot hide this from her. It's better if she knows now than later.
"Umm no Aunt actually I got fired,"
"What happened?" she asked with concern and worry lacing in her voice.
Oh nothing just that old man can't bear tardiness ohh it too unbearable for him... it would switch his life battery off .. ugh ...stupid oldie......
"I got late again and you know the rest" there was silence for few minutes.
Then I asked her as I looked at her,
"What happened why were you crying. Aunt you know how much I hate when you destroy those beautiful eyes of your which still make men woo." I said humorously and winked at her .
She laughed lightly and elbowed me in stomach.
Oww that hurts woman .
"I got fired too seems like it was not our lucky day more like "The Get Fired Day". She laughed at her own joke .
The comment alone was enough to make me dizzy. Ah another plus to my list of miseries, what else do I need.
Right? Clap please. With all the water bills, electricity bills, gas bills, house rent, car petrol, food and other services. Ugh!
When will all this become better? When will be there a day when we don't have to worry about the amount of money we are spending?
"Why?" I asked after few minutes in a low voice more like a whisper.
Though somehow I was glad that she don't have to go there anymore. That place was like a hell stuffed with perverted scums.
"W-well my boss said that how can someone like me even handle kids who has none of her own and will never have. He said I am useless thats why no man will ever want me as their wife. Bel, I really wanted to get married really it just I never got someone who would love me sincerely. It's not my fault that people always betray and I am afraid of being left heart broken. Is that my fault now bel ? And more over he gave me a rather disgusting offer to which I declined only for him to fire me".
Tears leaked freely out of her eyes making my heart ache. I quickly engulfed her in a hug which she warmly welcomed.
'i***t Sam, cockroach Sam, slimy lizard Sam, pervert jackass Sam, s**t plus s**t Sam.' My mind played like a video with very colourful words for that good for nothing ugly fat mouse.
"No aunt whatever that ugly Sam said is entirely rubbish. If it were not for you who would be there for me to give me motherly shadow. A shadow filled with so much love, care and gentleness. Aunt you are so beautiful and lovely that any man will be lucky to have you so don't think that again .That Sam is a snake who only knows to spit poison why take his rubbish so serious. Now c'mon be a good baby fresh up so we can eat some pizza and watch Netflix sounds great right" I ended my long speech with a big encouraging smile. I hope I succeeded this time.
Aunt looked at me with her wide eyes and mouth open as she stared at me and said, "And here I thought I am your aunt young lady. You really made me feel better now come here and give your beautiful aunt a hug"
"Thank you bel, you truly are a gift from God".
Phew finally I have her back
I hugged her tightly and sigh loudly .
—————————————————
At night
I sat on my bed thinking about how we are going to work out with nothing but few dollars in our pocket. Rent and bills are on their way more like running towards us. Aunt and I both have lost the job. The thought alone cause me headache. The morning incident was still fresh in my mind though I don't even want to think about it.
Arrogant bastard !!!
Are all men same?
Like they think they are superior to women. Ok I admit at some places they are but they don't have to treat women like trash. C'mon we gave you birth we deserve some respect.
Back to task I searched for available jobs and one job certainly caught my attention.
It was a PA job at Throne & Co. with a pay that made my eyes bulge out of their socket with $ sign flashing in them .
I immediately applied for it and to my surprise I got reply within two hours, to come for interview tomorrow at 8 am .
At once my old mobile rang . I picked up the call without looking at the screen and a loud voice welcomed me .
" Well hello there doll face . Seems like someone has forgotten me huh it's been complete 24 hours since we met and you didn't even called and here I worst thought that some psycho admirer of your has kidnapped and caged you forever huh though I would have highly mind if he had done so without me ." And ended with a little laugh.
Yes people so this is my only best friend Lily Goldsmith . She belongs to extremely rich family. Her family owns a famous textile company. Only child.
Soon to take over her dad company.
Lucky.
Well not cause she wants to be an Architect but her parents are forcing her into their business.
But nevertheless she loves them .
Unlike some other rich people who are nothing but spoilt brat she is the sweetest soul I have met . We met 5 year back at the coffee shop I worked . We instantly have developed liking for each other and she's rather possessive about me .
Gosh I sound so weird.
She says that I am the only person who didn't pretend to be someone else and been myself.
Though my being poor never mattered to her that is something I truly admire her for. We are inseparable. She's always there to fight for me . If it weren't for her I would never have a glimpse of rich life style. Though I resist but Lily being Lily . She would always drag me with her wherever she goes .
And yes she won't have a boyfriend and not even let me have. Not that I want to . I am more content with my single life.
She is really pretty, gentle, caring, loving, and yeah most significant humorous.
I rolled my eyes at her statement and replied, "Hahaha don't worry I don't have admirers sweetie . And I am sorry I was busy with job and yeah I and aunt June both have lost our job so yeah". I ended with a humourless laugh.
"Oh umm bel you know I can ask my dad...."
" Uh no actually I have applied for another job at Throne & Co. and they called me for interview tomorrow though thank you". I told her rather enthusiastically.
"Oh that's so great . That electronics company . My father has some business with their company . I heard it currently at top and the CEO is some hot badass hunk . He have girls all drooling over him . He has his picture all over magazines ."
I rolled my eye with laughing lightly .
" Hahaha I don't care about CEO. All I want is to have a job and not get fired by drooling over my boss".
We talked for some more time.
After some time at around 8 at night I got a mail that Literally made me fall off my my bed .
WTH.... just like that ?????
Hahahaha hahahaha
I laugh like a maniac for two good minutes and then reread the email.
Dear Ms Miller
It is to inform you that you have been hired at Throne & Co. as the PA of CEO , David Throne . Your service is required at office at sharp 8 tomorrow . We hope you enjoy working with our company.
Throne & Co. Limited
Oh my gosh !!!! I squealed like a little girl and ran to aunt room .
Finally I am going to get what I very much deserve.
Thank You God *_*
______________________
Next morning at Throne & Co.
I entered the elevator with very high hopes to see the CEO . The building was truly magnificent and the women here looked like they straight come out of fashion magazine. I felt a little out of place but I quickly shrugged it off and straighten my shoulders . I don't know but there was a strange feeling within me that was nagging me to stop. But stop by what ? Or whom ? I ignored it by thinking of it as nervousness. I hope it's only nervousness .
I looked at my outfit again in the mirror in elevator. I was wearing a simple white blouse and pencil skirt ( which I borrowed from lily ) with my favourite and only black heels and my only very own black Aldo's bag which I bought on 70% off . Yay .
Just perfect for office wear.
My hair are blonde that reaches a little below my shoulders. I have fair complexion and mesmerising blue grey eyes , straight small nose and pink full lips. It would not be wrong to say that I am beautiful. Though Lily always tell me but I just don't feel admitting it. With height like 5'8 I don't need to wear heels often though I don't even have not like I don't want to wear them. Cruel life.
But not anymore now I have work. I will earn my own money and I will buy things that I desire. Sigh........
Wait but I won't waste my money like some silly girls . I will only spend it on important things. Jeez I am not that stupid people.
As the door of elevator opened, I straighten my shoulders and walked out.
I reached the CEO office door and knocked.
'Enter,'' said a very masculine voice.
I entered only to be left shell shocked to my core.
" Well now who we have here" said a very dark smirking yet sexy voice.
Oh why me? Why me always?
I always believed in karma being b***h
But I didn't know it shows it's bitcheness the very next day....
Bloody deceiving bitch..!!
