As she sat, her eyes were locked on him. She had no idea of what she was supposed to do. she breathed in nervously as she tried to look courageous. The corners of his lips curved up slightly, he was delighted that she was his assistant now. During the interview day, he had already decided that he was going to choose her. Even though she didn't like him like how he opt she would. He still wanted her to be the assistant cause he was amused by her. He informed the human resource manager to select her cause he wanted to be more close to her.
She didn't know how she would start working around him. She thought that he was just any other colleague but not her boss. She knew that he liked her, his stares said it all. He wasn't even hiding it.
"So Miss Catina, welcome to my company", he mentioned. Her eyes widened as she stared at him without blinking. She couldn't believe that the company was his. To her, he was too young to be that rich. He wasn't kidding her since he mentioned that it was his company. She had no other choice than to believe him.
"Thank you I normally get that look all the time I tell people that am the owner of this company", he mentioned. He was already used to people being surprised. Most of the people who never met him at first thought that the owner of the fashion company was an old man.
"It's a good thing boss", she wanted to be official with him. She wanted to set a boundary since he was her boss, she didn't want them to be close friends.
"Just call me Shawn ain't an old man", a chuckle escaped from his lips. He could see the way, she was nervous and surprised. Catina always expresses her emotions in her facial expressions. So it was easy for him to tell her current mood. Even though she tried not to appear surprised by what she found out. Her facial expressions couldn't let her act cool.
"I will try that", a slight grin appeared on her face as she tried to act cool.
"Yes please do. My secretary will inform you of what you should do. Then afterwards you will come here so that can give you some brand new clothes. My assistant must be wearing my brand", he mentioned. Since his company was among the best fashion company in the country. He wanted her to look more attractive and sophisticated in his outfits. She was smart but not to the standards that he wanted. To him, she wasn't looking sophisticating like how he wanted her to look.
"Ooh really that's good", she couldn't hide her overflowing joy. Wearing his brand was an honour since all of his outfits are normally expensive. Only the rich can afford to buy his clothes.
"And before I forget you should bring my t-shirt to my place", he didn't forget about his cloth. Even though it wasn't important to him, he just wanted to spend more time with her in his apartment.
"Okay will bring it", she didn't argue like before. He was surprised too cause she accepted to go to his place just like that.
"Aaah fine Catina, let me order tea first ", he mentioned. Before she could answer he called his secretary and informed him to order tea for two. Her heart started pounding faster as she spotted him staring at her, she didn't know what she should do. He was now her boss and she had to show him respect even though he was irritating her. A faint grin appeared on her face as their eyes locked. She wanted to show him that she wasn't scared of him. That even though he was her boss, she wasn't fearing him like she ought to.
"Yes sir", she forgot that he informed her that he doesn't like being called Sir or Mr Immediately she noticed a soft chuckle escaping from his lips. She called him by his name again. His eyes brightened up as he noticed the way she was struggling to stay still.
"I won't bite you Cat just relax and be free around me", he mentioned. He assured her that she had nothing to worry about. After a few minutes, someone knocked at the door. Shawn informed the person to enter since the door wasn't closed. The person who was knocking at the door arrived with tea and cookies.
"Hi Sir", she said as she placed her tray on the table. She first started to serve Shawn since he was the boss. After she finished serving him, she served Cat too.
"Thank you", Shawn informed the lady. She headed to the door and left the office.
"Just eat so that you can begin to work", he mentioned. A faint grin appeared on Cat's face as she started to consume the delicious breakfast.
"These cookies are yummy", he said as he bites one of the cookies. "Yes it is", Cat mentioned. She loved that he took the time to buy her breakfast. She was wondering why the lady called him boss but he didn't stop her. But when she called him boss, he didn't like her to call him boss, sir or Mr Shawn. She hoped that it didn't mean something since he insisted that she should be calling him by his name. As she was taking the tea, she remembered how he insisted that she should go to his place to give him the tshirt. Since he was now her boss, she knew that she had to obey him.
"Thank you it was delicious", Cat stated as she wiped her hands with the wet tissue.
"You welcomed, I now presume that you are now ready to start working", he raised a brow at her. She assured him that, she was ready to start working.
"My secretary will first tour you around this building before you start working", he informed her. She nodded then stood, she wanted to leave, Cat was always the perfectionist. She didn't want to disappoint him, during her first day at work.
"You may now go", he told her. She headed to the door, the secretary had a wide grin on his face as Cat stood beside him.
"I am Steve and your Catina I presume", he lifted a brow at her. She nodded assuring him that she was Catina. They later left and headed to the lift. Steve took her to all the places in the building. Even at the workshop area, she was impressed with what she was seeing. In the workshop area, there were a lot of fashion designers making clothes. After they toured the area, they headed back to their boss's office.
