BRIANNA'S P. O. V
After leaving Mr Michael Anthony Craine's office, Mr Andrew Craine showed me my office. My office was next to the ceo's office. It was beautifully decorated in white and grey colour. There was white couches, grey carpet and the window was glass. Inside the office, you could see the streets. I was introduced to some of the workers on the fifteenth floor. They were all males and this means that I will be the only female working there. After Mr Craine showed me around, we went to see the HR.
" Hello Mr Wilson" Mr Craine greeted
" Hello sir please how may I help you" Mr Wilson asked
" Please meet Miss Brianna Bennett she is the new secretary to the president" Mr Craine introduced me
" Hello Miss Bennett nice to meet you" Mr Wilson said with a smile
" Hello Mr Wilson please nice to meet you too" I greeted back.
Mr Wilson offered us a seat and we discussed my salary and allowances. I got to know that I will be earning one hundred thousand dollars every month and also will earn ten thousand dollars whenever I worked overtime. After further discussions, we left the HR department and returned to Mr Craine's office.
" Sir thank you very much for giving me a chance" I said
" Miss Bennett I hope you will do a good job for the company" he said with a smile
" Sir I will do my best" I assured him
His phone beeped. He looked at it for a while and said " Miss Bennett you can go home and prepare to start work tomorrow. Your duties and responsibilities have been sent to you via email"
I thanked him and left.
When I got home, I checked my email and read everything the company sent me.
I also decided to make research about Mr Michael Anthony Craine. I typed his name on my phone but didn't find anything. I did my personal chores and went out for shopping. I prepared for tomorrow. The whole night, I kept thinking about how my first day will be like and I kept thinking about Mr Michael Anthony Craine's beautiful face. I felt nervous throughout the night
I woke up earlier than ever for the first time. I went to the washroom and did my morning rituals. I checked my phone and realised that I have gotten a message. It was from the boss
" Be at my house by seven o'clock and please check your email Michael Anthony Craine"
I checked my email and saw that I have been emailed with the rules and regulations. I rushed out of the house because it was already six thirty.
I arrived at the address being sent to me. I couldn't believe my eyes, the boss's house was huge and there were guards on every corner outside the house. The mansion looked like a palace. I went to one of the guards.
" Sir please good morning please I am Mr Michael Craine's new secretary" I said
" Please what is your name" he asked
" I am Brianna Bennett" I answered
He called one of his female colleagues. She took me to a room and search through my bag. After that she made a phone call. The main gate opened automatically. I was asked to enter. I entered and I was escorted to the main house. I was offered a seat by a man who I think is the butler. Few minutes later, Mr Andrew Craine came down.
" Good morning Miss Bennett" Mr Craine greeted
" Good morning Mr Craine please can you inform your father of my arrival" I said
" He will be down soon" he said
Mr Craine gave me some documents and told me his father needed them this morning. He asked the butler to serve me with everything I need. I felt shy but I told the butler I have not eating breakfast yet. The butler was generous enough to take me to the kitchen and serve me something to eat. I have to admit that if there is paradise on earth, then it is this mansion. The kitchen was amazing and everything in the house looked so expensive. I returned to the place I was sitting after eating and thanking the butler.
I looked up and saw Mr Michael Craine coming down gently. Oh my goodness he looks so beautiful. I have never seen a man like this before. He looked at me for a while and nodded slightly to me
" G-G-G- Good morning s-s-sir" I greeted nervously.
" Good morning Miss Bennett" he responded
My heart was beating really fast. I couldn't believe there is a man like this in the world.
" Good morning Dad" his son greeted
" Good morning son" he responded and turned to me
" Miss Bennett, please what are my schedules" he asked
I quickly took my iPad and read it to him nervously. A man enters the tells Mr Michael Craine that his car is ready
" Alright I will see you at the office son" he says gently.
He made his way to the entrance and I quickly followed him. The were three cars packed outside. One of his bodyguards opened the backseat door of the middle car which was a Rolls Royce for him. He got inside and the guard directed me to sit at the other side beside Mr Craine.
" Please use the short road" Mr Craine told his driver
Throughout the drive, he kept working on his phone. He didn't say a word to me.
" Mr Craine please why did you send me a message to come to your house" I asked
He said nothing.
" Sir please I am talking to you" I said again but he still kept quiet. I stared at him for a while. He acted like he didn't hear me. I asked myself why he was given me a cold shoulder.
Soon we got to a gang hangar. Mr Craine's door was opened for him. He got out and walked towards a private jet. I got out and quickly followed him. I saw that it was written on the private jet MAC. I quickly run after him he got inside and I did the same. The plane set off soon. I realised that we were going to a different city.
We soon arrived at a place I didn't know Mr Craine walked out and I followed. we got into a car and it set off. I was feeling irritated because he wasn't talking or saying anything to me. The car stopped in front of a huge building and we got down. We entered and some people who seemed like the staff greeted Mr Craine. He walked to the elevator and got in. I tried going in but was stopped by his bodyguard. He opened another elevator for me and got in with me.
" Please tell me why you stopped from getting in to the elevator" I asked
" The elevator you tried getting in is for the boss" he said
" Alright so no body is allowed inside" I asked
" No" he answered
I was about to ask another question when the elevator stopped. We went out and I followed the boss to a conference room. Everyone stood up as he walked to his seat. He sat down a I sat next to him.
" Miss Bennett please take note of everything" he said
It was when the meeting began that I remember it was the first thing on his schedule today.
During the meeting, I realised that he was not only beautiful. He is really intelligent. He solved every issue and answered every question like a pro. The meeting lasted for about two hours and I was really bored. The meeting ended and we went back to the city. I spent my first day working on files. I didn't even see Mr Craine for the entire day since he was in his office. He didn't call me and neither did I go there.
After I was done working on some documents, I went to Mr Craine's office to deliver the files. I knocked and he responded. I nervously entered. I walked towards his desk .
" Excuse me sir please here are the documents. I am done working on them" I said
" Put them down" he said without looking at me
I placed them on the table and was about to leave when he cleared his throat. I turned around
" Miss Bennett please email these messages to every department head" he said calmly
" Mr Craine please can I do it after eating. I am really hungry" I said
He stares at me for a while and says nothing.
I walk out after a while.
" This man is really beautiful but he is arrogant and really mean" I said to myself
I sat down and sent the emails to every department head. It was almost six in the evening when I completed. I received an email and it was from my boss. He asked me to work on some files.
" Damn it this man is so heartless"
It was nine in the evening when I finished.
I sent the documents to my boss.
" Sir please it's nine can I go home" I asked nervously
He gives me a slight nod.
I went to my office and took my bag I called Antonella to pick me up.
She arrived in thirty minutes and I went home
