Chapter 6 - Fired

BRIANNA'S P. O. V

It's been two weeks since Mr Michael Craine travelled. I haven't heard from him. His son has taken full charge of running the company. I have been working as his secretary and I must admit that it's easier working for him done his father.

It's Friday night, Antonella and I are at the club. My boyfriend Harry is in town. We are out with Antonella and her boyfriend. We ordered our favorite alcoholic beverages. We drink, chat and laugh. Harry and I walked to the dancefloor the we danced like there is no tomorrow. I felt someone was starring at me. I looked up and saw someone who looked familiar. A tall man with beautiful eyes.

" Oh my goodness" I screamed

" What is it babe" Harry asked

I looked up again but didn't find him there again.

" I might be hallucinating" I said to myself

" Babe what is it" Harry asked again

" Don't worry dear" I said

We danced for a while and returned to our seats. We ordered more drinks. I kept looking up to see if I will see him again but I didn't see him.

We left the club at dawn. Antonella took me home.

MICHAEL'S P. O. V

It's been two weeks I have been out of the company and the country. I went to meet Ivana. I going away for a while will help me cool of and forget about my secretary.

Tonight on my friend Richard's insistence, I went to the club. I was sitting at the VVIP lounge when I saw her entering. She wore a straight short dress. She looked so sexy, attractive and beautiful. I also noticed a man with her. He was about the same age as her. I felt jealous when I saw them dancing closely together. I stared at her for a while. She looked up and based on her reaction, I know she saw me. I returned to my seat so that she doesn't notice me again. I saw how tight and close she was with the guy.

" I guess, he is her boyfriend" I said to myself

I left the club as soon as she left.

BRIANNA'S P. O. V

I woke up with a hangover. I had a terrible headache. I dragged myself to the bathroom and did my morning rituals. It's weekend so my hangover wasn't a problem. I went to the kitchen for my breakfast.

" Good morning mum " I greeted mum and kisses her cheek

" Good morning dear" she responded

" I can't believe you got home late. Dear you need to be careful please" my mother said with worry

"Mum don't worry I can take care of myself" I assured her.

We ate our breakfast together. After breakfast I went to my room and picked my phone. There were messages.

" Hi baby how is your day going.Can we meet tonight" Harry

I replied him and quickly gave him a call. We talked for a while. After cutting the call, I went back to reading my messages.

" Good morning Miss Bennett. Meet me at the company by nine o'clock am. Michael Anthony Craine"

Oh my goodness it's the boss's message. I checked the time and it was ten o'clock. I quickly took my bag without changing and left for the company. I got there in an hour because of traffic.

I quickly went up to the office. I saw Mr Michael Craine's office half opened. I knocked and he responded. I nervously entered

" G-G-G-Good morning s-s-sir" I greeted nervously

I don't know why I am always like this around him.

" Miss Bennett, you were supposed to be here at nine what happened" he asked sarcastically

" Sir please I didn't check my phone when I woke up" I answered

" Miss Bennett, I can see your disinterest in working for me so I think it's better I let you go" he said

"What! Sir you can't do that" I said with a shaking voice

" Excuse me, I am the owner of this group. So I can do it and more. You are irresponsible and I don't like working with people like that" he said

"Sir please you can't do this" I begged

" Miss Bennett please leave you can come on Monday for you service pay" he said and returned to his seat and started working on his computer.

I run out with tears in my eyes. I got into the elevator and went down. I bumped into someone and almost fell but the person caught me and helped me on my feet. I then realised it was Me Andrew Craine.

" Miss Bennett are you alright! Why are you crying" he asked with concern

" Sir your father fired me" I said while crying

" What! What did you do" he asked

I told him everything that happened. He told to come with him. We got into the elevator and went back to the fifteenth floor. He sat me down on the couch and went to his father's office.
