Chapter 9 - 20 Proposals

The following morning Bianca resumed office looking all gorgeous.

Mandy showed her to her new office that was just directly opposite hers. She went in and got ready for the day and also to await His boss's arrival.

At exactly 8:30 am, Kingsley arrived at the office. He went straight to his office after just nodding to Mandy's greetings.

Mandy suddenly noticed the air around him is unusually stiff. Despite Kingsley being rude, bossy, arrogant and always up tight but she could still sense If there is something wrong.

She was on her way to brew his coffee when Bianca stepped out of her office to go greet him.

"Good morning sir" Bianca greeted politely.

Good morning, Bianca.

"You're finally here" He said with a straight face.

"Yes sir. Thank you so much for this opportunity" she said confidently.

"Mhmm" he nodded 

I see you've been shown to your office.

Yes sir. Mandy did.

"Alright," He said pressing his phone for a couple of seconds. meanwhile, Bianca was already on her way out of the office.

And where do you think you are going? He asked still looking at his phone.

Sir??

He finally dropped his phone and looked at her.

I hate to repeat myself young lady because I'm sure I'm not dealing with a physically challenged staff. Or am I? He asked in a very calm yet harsh tone.

"No sir" she responded 

Good. 

Sir, what do you want me to do for you? She asked professionally and Kingsley only stared at her for a while before looking at the large screen on his desk.

"Sent some documents to your email already. Go sort them out and revert to me in an hour" he said coldly.

"Okay, sir" She bowed her head and left.

She went to the Desktop on the top of her desk and clicked on the Email button to check the mail he had sent.

She saw a folder that contained about 20 proposal documents with the instruction to sort and pick the first 5 proposals to be considered by the company and the reason why they should. Also, she should have them printed out.

She almost ran out of breath when she saw it. How on earth am I supposed to finish this in an hour? She questions herself.

She looked through them and decided to continue since she was running out of time.

Meanwhile, Kingsley isn't feeling too well after waking up from his usual dreadful nightmare. This is a dream he always prays not to have because it brings a whole lot of memories and the urge to kill suddenly starts to fill him.

....

An hour later.

Bianca went into his office with the document sorted out to the best of her knowledge.

Kingsley was surprised to see her arrive just in time and the greater surprise was when he went through them and discovered that she had picked the exact ones he did before and Also with a good reason for choosing them. He was just testing how smart and Time conscious she can be and he was amazed that she did just great.

Bianca?? He called with no readable expression on his face.

Sir? She responded with fear instilled in her.

What did you study again? He asked.

Office management.

And have you handled any business before? 

No sir.

Then how did you end up doing a great job here? He pointed at the documents he was holding and this made her finally took a relief breath.

Well, sir, it's just common sense and a lot of research. Currently, the world is changing so drastically that a particular business isn't guaranteed to be relevant in the market for a longer period anymore. So we need to venture or consider any business or company that will be ready to change to the tune of the economy as it transgresses" She explained.

"Interesting" Kingsley who suddenly finds himself interested in her analysis said.

Yes sir.

"Well, I must say, you did a great job. Congratulations, you just passed your first assessment." He said calmly leaning on his chair.

"Thank you, sir" she replied happily.

You can go back to your office and prepare for what I have on my schedule for today and...(Door opens)

"Hey, Shuga" Irys barged into Kingsley's office.

"Hey, babe" Kingsley smiled lovingly at her.

"That will be all Bianca" he said 

"Alright, sir" she bowed and left.

Who is she? She asked the moment Bianca stepped out.

"My new staff" He said pulling her to sit on his lap.

Why do you always employ girls as your new staff? Why? She asked angrily.

Do you have a problem with that? He asked kissing her collar bone.

"Yes. I have a problem with that. These girls you employ always look desperate and that look that is like they're ready to eat you up at any time" She complained.

Hahaha" Kingsley laughed.

I'ts not funny.

"Babe honestly, I don't understand a thing you've just said" He said still kissing her neck but she suddenly withdraw from him.

Okay, I'll make you understand.

Do you see how she was dressed with her cleavage showing? Look at the makeup on her face, lo.....

"Cmon babe" He pulled her back closer to himself.

"There is absolutely nothing wrong with how she's dressed and nobody can ever take me away from you. So just stop talking already and kiss me" He said softly

She reluctantly threw her hands around his neck and kissed him deeply and just when things were getting deeper, Dickson barged in on them.
