I dreaded this morning, I wake up and the memories of the previous day came flooding back to me I wondered to myself what the hell I had gotten myself into, but that was no time for self-pity not you got yourself into the mess, and now you have to deal with it even though it's means deal with the devil Kai Xavier. I got ready to head out, and as I was about to lock my door, I heard a voice behind me.
" hey Jessica, nice to meet see you again "
I turned to see Asher
"Hello, Asher I am sorry I am running late for work, " I said
" I know, can I drop you off at work? " he said with a smile I thought about it for a second before I said, "ok," who did not love a free ride? On our way to his car, we made small talk I asked him how work was stuff like that. We got into the car, and it was quiet this was awkward, and then he asked,
"Hey, are you single ." what was I supposed to answer to that question? and it just reminded me of my current situation
Was I supposed to say, "No, I am about to enter a contract marriage with my boss? " no, so I said the next best thing, "It's complicated. "
" Oh, " he said
" cause I would love to go out with you how long do you think it is going to be complicated for, " he said with a small chuckle I don't have the mind to tell the truth I don't even know how long this is going to last
" I don't know. " I said, we finally arrived at my workplace
" thank you for the ride," I said while getting out of the car
" anytime, see you around Jessica "
" see you around. " As I watched his car drive away, I thought to myself, why could I haven't ended up with someone like him he was kind, and he seemed sweet, and he was doing great for himself he is normal, but I am not I kept on end up with jerks now I am forced to marry a rich jerk, Asher deserves better than me I wish I could say yes, but that is not how life works.
I waited in the waiting room I couldn't believe he was making his future bride wait what a gentleman he is
" Mr Kai will see you now, " his assistant said
"Thank you, "I said
" What is your name? "I I asked
" that is none of your business; your business is with my Kai, " she said rudely
"I said, shocked where did that come from? I was only trying to be friendly, but who cared I have bigger fish to fry.
I walked into his office looking at Dashing as ever, but I was not going to tell him that
" I have drawn up the contract for you to sign I have already signed it, " he said coldly
" I have to read it first before I sign it, " I said
" Whatever be quick about o don't have all day," he said, still in that cold tone
I schemed through the contract, and it said I had to live in his house and be a " love couple " in public. Everything seemed okay, but I had one condition: " I want to continue working, " I said
" What is that, " he said
" Security, and I want to pay you back, "I said
He thought about it for a few minutes
" come on, you don't have all day, "I said mockingly
He glared at me, and I glared back, and I saw a wicked smile across his face it felt wrong.
" Fine, I will give you a job, " he said
" What is the job? "I asked suspiciously
" you are going to be my assistant, and I will be deducting a percentage of your salary is that ok with you? " wife," he said I glared at him when he said the word "wife" because I knew it didn't mean anything to him, I took a second to answer him
" Yes, but that has to be added to the contract cause I can't trust, " I said
" I am hurt you would say that, wife, " he said
" stop calling me that, " I said, feeling annoyed
" I will call you whatever I want, wife," he said sarcastically. I ignored his comment he was trying to get a reaction out of me I was not going to give him that satisfaction.
"How are we going to make this look real, "I asked
He thought about it and said, "You are my assistant, and we fell in love. " he said
"Ok," I said
" speaking of assistants, I have your first job fire my old assistant, " he said coldly, he is a monster, how could he do that to someone, just disposed of someone as if they were just trash before I could say anything he called her "Abby come to my office now"
So that was her name, "Abby." She came in
" yes sir, " she said
". Go ahead, Jessica, tell her, " he said, A wave of guilt washed over me she was rude, but she didn't deserve this
" come get on with it, " he said in a cool tone as if he was not making me fire his assistant. I summoned all the courage I had
" Abby, you are fired, " I said she looked at me and said, "Who the hell do you think you are?" Her words held venom she looked like she was ready to punch me in the face, but I stood my ground
" I am his new assistant, and the first job he gave me is to fire you, "I said
" you are not good enough for him, he is mine, Kai you can't do this to me I love you, " she screamed at me and Kai. She came charging toward me, but before she could get to me, Kai stood between us
" Don't you dare lay your hands on her, she is mine, " he roared
