Monday morning came and Eve wakes up very early so as to arrive early at the office because she is the personal assistant to Mr. Charles. She hurries up with her breakfast and leaves the house, off to the company.
.......................
Charlie wakes up, goes to the bathroom, freshens up and puts on his designer black tuxedo with white shirt, Hublot wrist watch, he opens his drawer with different ties, he uses his hands to trace on top of the ties and picks the black one and put on and leaves the room.
As he goes down the stairs, he was greeted by his servants. On reaching the dinning table, he sees his dad and he greets his dad dwho in turn responds to his greeting.
"Good morning, dad" said Charlie.
"Good morning son, how was your night?" Asked his father.
"Fine dad and yours" said Charlie.
"It was fine" said his father.
They both starts eating their respective food before his father remembers something.
"Oh, there is a girl I meet recently, she is very nice, honest, humble and she is very pretty too".
"Oh, okay, why are you saying all this, dad?" Said Charlie.
"I am saying all this because it's high time you get married or at the very least have a girlfriend that you will introduce to me, son that's all I ask for, I want to carry my grandchildren before I die" lamented his father.
Charlie rolls his eyes, he laughs and said"Dad you won't die anytime soon so be patient because I am not in a hurry to get married yet".
"What!" Shouted his father, "how can you say that, you are almost thirty and you are saying you are not ready" his father complains.
"Yes dad" said Charlie calmly.
His dad sighs and says"tell you what, I am giving you one month and if you don't bring a lady and introduce her to me as your fiancee then you leave me no choice than to choose a wife for you".
Charlie sighs in defeat "okay dad". He stands up and tells his dad goodbye and leaves the house.
He arrives at the company, he is been greeted by his employees and he catches sight of Eve as she stands by his door waiting for him to come out of the car. The driver comes down from the car and opens the door for him, he gets down looks at Eve and heads towards the door of the company with Eve, his secretary Dan and other workers who came to welcome him.
Charlie asks Eve about his schedule without facing her.
Eve opens her iPad and reads the schedule for today.
"You have a board meeting by 10am, lunch meeting with Mr. Shakura at 1pm, sir" said Eve.
"Okay" said Charlie. He reaches his office and enters inside with only Eve and Dan following behind him.
He sits on his chair and looks up at Eve and Dan and said "go and get me all the files that needs my signature immediately"
Eve and Dan replies with "sir" and turns to leave the office.
Eve goes back to her office that's close to Charlie's own and begins to gather all the files Charlie requested for and heads back to his office.
She knocks on the door and goes in. Charlie lifts his head and sees Eve. She is dressed in a black Palazzo pants and a peach coloured chiffon top. She looks breath taking again.
Eve walks to his table and drops the files "here is the files sir" as she turns back to leave, Charlie speaks up.
"How old are you?" Asked Charlie.
"Mmmm" said Eve as she is shocked by the sudden question asked by her boss. The atmosphere becomes a little bit awkward and quiet before the silence is broken by Charlie as he asked again.
"How old are you?" Asked Charlie. Before Eve comes back to reality, Charlie was already standing in front of her and her face turns crimson, she uses her hands to cover her face as she was embarrassed.
Upon seeing her reaction, he decides to tease her more, he brings his face closer to her face that there's just a little distance between their faces. Eve gets scared by his actions and hurries to answer him.
"27 years sir" said Eve.
"Very good, you can go now" said Charlie chuckling.
Eve races to the door, opens it and runs out of the office.
Charlie similes at her behaviour and says "she is cute". Charlie plans to find out what's different about her that attracts him to her. He sighs and returns to his sit behind the table and focuses on the work on his desk.
