Chapter 17 - Alina’s Struggle With Time Management

Alina's Pov-

I woke up abruptly to the sound of my alarm. I opened my eyes and sat up, rubbing them to adjust to the light. I reached over and turned off the alarm, then stretched my arms and legs before getting out of bed.

I noticed that Luciano was already gone.

I checked the time and it was 7:30 o'clock. Shit! I was late, I had to reach the office at 9. It was my first day in the office and I didn't wanna be late.

Then I remembered about the last night, he already told me that he doesn't like late comers and here I was already late.

So I quickly grabbed my towel and stepped into the shower. Within 15 minutes I completed my bath.

I quickly blow dried my hair and wore white shirt with black pencil skirt. Nothing could beat this combination. I did minimal makeup and curled my hair while I kept them open. I apply my favorite red lipstick.

Then I quickly stuffed my items into my purse.

I went outside and ordered the driver to drive to the office.

The office was at a distance of half an hour and it was already 8.30. But thank god I would reach on time. I patted my own shoulder for getting ready so fast.

But I was just so angry with Luciano, he didn't bother to wake me up even once. He wanted me to get late so that he could taunt me and humiliate me again.

Alina, forget about him, just take a deep breath. It's your first day in the office and you should be stress free. You had to meet new people and had to make a good impression. After all, I was the head coordinator of the company.

By the time I was daydreaming, we reached the office. I checked the time and it was exactly 9 o'clock. I huffed asl managed to reach on time. Driver parked the car inside the parking lot and I stepped outside.

I saw that the office building stood tall with its modern architecture, boasting a sleek glass exterior that reflected the surrounding cityscape.

The entrance was marked by a large revolving door, leading into a spacious lobby with high ceilings and polished marble floors, while a row of neatly trimmed trees lined the sidewalk.

The windows on each floor were evenly spaced and tinted, giving the building a uniform appearance.

It was a beautiful large building. I inhaled deeply as I felt butterflies in my stomach.

I stepped into the elevator, I saw other people in it.My nerves were palpable as I prepared to ascend to my office floor which was floor no. 15. I fidgeted with my purse strap and avoided eye contact with the other passengers.

The doors closed with a soft hiss and the elevator began its ascent. My heart raced as each floor passed by, bringing me closer to my destination. Finally, the elevator reached my floor and the doors opened with a ding. I took a deep breath and stepped out, ready to face my first day on the job.

As I stepped out, I bumped into someone. My head hit someone's hard chest. I rubbed my head and looked to see a handsome man, around 6 feet tall.

"Are you alright?" He looked worried.

"Ya, I am fine." I said, forcing a smile on my face.

"I am really sorry. I didn't see you." He apologized.

"No, it's my fault. I am so silly. I was just busy with my own thoughts." I said as I laughed on my Silliness.

"Ohh, I see. Haven't seen you before. Are you new here?" He asked as he looked closely, making me nervous.

"Yes, it's my first day and I am the head coordinator here." I replied

"Ohh, are you Miss Alina? Our new head coordinator." He said with a huge smile.

"Yes, correct." I spoke. "Hi! I am Alex. Your sub-coordinator." He said, offering a hand to shake.

"Hi! Alex. Nice to meet you." I greeted him.

"So, welcome to the company, Let's go inside." He said and directed me to the office.

We entered the office and it was pretty good. There was a huge space and everyone's desks

were placed at a good distance. Then, suddenly Alpha entered and all the members stood from their desks.

"Good morning Alpha!" Everyone greeted him, while some girls looked at him seductively and passed him a smile.

Ugh! Why did women behave like this with him?

Such a womanizer he was!

Alex also greeted him but he ignored him and stood beside me.

"You are late Miss Alina!" He whispered in my ear.

"You should have woken me!" I said, pissed, forcing a smile on my lips in front of everyone.

"Attention everyone." He said loudly in his deep voice.

"Meet, Miss Alina! She is the new head coordinator of our company." He announced and everyone clapped and passed me warm smiles except the few chicks. Never mind I was used to such chicks.

"So, she will work here from now onwards. I hope you all coordinate with her." He told them.

"Miss Alina, Just now you can see your cabin." He said politely.

"Come Miss Alina, I will show you your cabin." Alex offered me with a warm smile.

I smiled back at him while Alpha passed an unusual look. I ignored him and we both went towards the cabin passing smiles to each other. I entered my cabin and it was so amazing.

"Here is your office, Mam!" Alex said, showing the office.

"Thank you for your help. You can now go back to your work. I will not bother you again." I thanked him.

"No, that's my pleasure. You are our head and you can call me whenever you want any help." He said.

"Ya, sure." I said and he exited the cabin.

I looked around and scanned the whole cabin. It was a spacious and well-lit room with high ceilings and large windows that provided ample natural light. Even the walls were painted in a neutral color and adorned with a few pieces of artwork. The cabin was furnished with several workstations, each equipped with a computer, phone, and ergonomic chair. There were mini plants placed on the center table. There was also my name plate on the table.

I had never got such a high post in my father's company. I was just an employee there, with a lot of work.

I am glad that Luciano gave me a good post despite our differences. But I didn't know what I had to do now.

I was enjoying some free moments in the office when I heard a knock on the door.

"Please, Come in!" I ordered and a blond girl entered. She was holding some papers in hands.

"Boss has sent these papers and tells you that you have to go through them and understand the past works."

The blonde girl said as she put the papers in front of my face and passed me a smile.

"Fine, thanks." I said and she stepped outside.

I looked at the huge bundle in front of me and shuffled them to check them. No doubt Luciano would not let me work here so easily, I stepped outside.

I sighed as I had to complete them today only. Who expects this much work on the first day But never mind I would complete them.
