"Miss McKenzie you're fired!"
Casandra stood dumbfounded at the manager's voice that had always threatened her. This time the fault very appropriate to be used as an excuse for her manager to fire her.
"Mrs Perkins I-I--"
"No more excuses miss Mckenzie. According to our company's regulations. It's very clear that you made a fatal and unforgivable mistake. Now please pack up all your belongings and leave everything that belongs to this company."
'The old woman lacks affection. It's great to see other people struggling. Cold blooded has no heart.' Casandra grumbled inwardly.
Mrs Perkins smiled sarcastically and left Casandra.
Casandra exhaled roughly into her room to pack her things.
The door opened Rose her best friend came in saying. "Where did you go? That old woman has been looking for you for a long time while threatening .She has come to me so many times asking me to show you where you are."
"Forget it Rose."
"Wait a minute, you're fired?"
"Yes as you can see. I have to get my things cleaned up or the old woman will throw it away."
"Oh my God, that woman is so mean. Acting arbitrarily like she's the boss here." Rose grumbled.
"It's okay, I will find another job. Who knows at the new office I meet a handsome man who will be my soul mate." Cassandra chuckled to lighten the mood.
"Oh soul mate is very important for a person like you. Otherwise you will stay virgin for the rest of your life." Rose was joking.
"Are you making fun of me now huh?"
"A little," Rose gritted her teeth.
"Well Miss Sanders back to work right now or else the old woman will start targeting you after I leave this office."
"I will always miss you Casie." Rose hugged Cassandra.
"Me too Rose. Come on don't be sad, we still can hang out together on the weekends." Casandra kissed Rose's cheek.

This week Casandra has been trying to find a job through interviews or applying online. But until now, there is no work call from any of the companies on the list.
"Oh God, where else should I look for a job. My money is running low, how am I supposed to pay the rent next month? Mom also needs money for medical treatment, phew," Casandra blew the hair on her face.
Currently Casandra looks desperate in the middle of the office to find a new job.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Eric and John had just finished meeting a client at a one of the famous restaurant. His gaze stopped at the figure of a beautiful woman he knew very well. The sexy woman who saved the lives of many people including himself.
Casandra who felt the heat. Flicking the map file to get some wind to cool her down.
Eric, who saw the file folder in Casandra's hand, remembered Casandra's words, who always talked about being fired and afraid of losing her job.
'Was she really fired for that time?' Eric felt sorry.
"John find out about her and find a way to recruit her to be my new secretary!"
John, who was busy writing something important on his cell phone, was surprised.
"W-what sir, who will be the new secretary, sir?" John looked around looking for someone.
"She, that woman." Eric showed his middle finger to Casandra who was sitting not far away from them.
John smirked as he said. "Yes sir, I'll be in touch with Miss McKenzie as soon as possible."
One week before.
"Miss Mkcenzie!" A man's deep voice called out to Casandra.
Casandra rolled her eyes when she looked back to see her big boss calling her name. Casandra greatly admired and idolized the man who now stood beside her. One of the reasons he worked so hard to be accepted into this company was because of his boss who inspired her.
"Mr Wolf?" Casandra surprised.
"There's a special offer for you."
Casandra was very happy with a smile then she said. "What is it, sir?"
Casandra's face immediately darkened when she heard the unreasonable offer from her big boss. Instantly she felt disgusted with the person she admired. She regretted all this time idolizing him. Turns out he is a person who likes to play cunning.
"No I can't accept the job, Sir. I think it's better to stay unemployed rather than do such a dirty job." Casandra was very dissapointment.
Mr Wolf smirked. "Really, I will help you to be able to stand alone according to your dreams all this time."
Casandra was silent, her mind blank.
"Think about it again, this opportunity doesn't come twice and only you are fit for this mission."
