Chapter 2 Red Face

Alexis POV

I handed the cab driver my fee and alighted from the cab . I walked inside the extra large compound. The building was so huge . I had been here once but , i didn't really have much time to admire the building because like today i was already late.

I quickened my pace , just then my phone rang , I took it out of my bag and answered the call.

"Mom?"

"Lex....have you gotten there" my mom asked

"Yes mom, i'm about to walk in" i replied looking around. I was standing at the car lot and the main entrance was just some meters away.

"Okay , I wish you best o....." I didn't hear her complete her statement because the next second i was pushed to the floor. The door of the car i was standing by had opened and pushed me to the ground.

"Lex?,Lex!, are you there" my mom voice sounded faint. I picked up my phone from the ground.

"I'll call you later mom" I said and hung up.

I stood up dusting my skirt, glaring at the guy who just came out of the car. I couldn't see his face clearly because of his tinted glasses and his hands were over his mouth and nose stopping me from seeing his face,but i guessed he must be someone from a high class, but that doesn't matter, what mattered was he pushed me to the ground with his damn car and didn't apologize.

"Can't you see what you did" i growled at him.

He removed his glasses to look at me. My jaw dropped , holly molly, he was damn handsome, his perfectly chiseled face, his perfectly built nose, his flat pink lips i so wanted to smash mine on, his long dirty brown hair falling over the sides of his face, giving him the perfect look , oh gosh. I gawked at the demi god right in front of me, I don't know what adjective to classify him but he was an Angel on earth

I stared at him loss of words , i wanted to speak but my voice failed me.

Why?, why couldn't I talk?,why do I feel tensed and nervous?, what's he doing to me. This isn't me.

"You're standing in my way, red face" came his deep cold voice.

I was taken aback.

Why did he call me red face. I stole a glance at myself through his car . he was right my face was burning red of anger and impatience now.

"Are you blind or something, you used your damn car to push me to the floor" i said angrily ignoring the fact i was checking him out minutes ago .

"Oh really, I think you're the blind one here, you shouldn't stand beside a moving car, it could lead to something worse than being pushed to the ground" he said coldly again before walking away.

I blinked me eyes trying hard to understand what he just did.

Who the heck was he

"Jerk, arrogant" i yelled when he was almost out of sight.

"Urghh" i groaned angrily as i watched the jackass walk away.

I hate people who are so arrogant and too full of their self, he had pushed me to the ground and he couldn't say sorry for what he did .how could someone be that handsome and still be rude .

'Wasn't he taught his magic words in elementary '

I picked up my bag before walking into the huge building.

I won't let an arrogant jackass spoil my day and ruin my chances of working here.

Richard's POV

"Oh really, I think you're the blind one here, you shouldn't stand beside a moving car, it could lead to something worse than being pushed to the ground" i said coldly to the lady who was accusing me and walked away.

"Jerk!,arrogant" I heard her yell but I ignored her .

I don't have time for her types.

Well she wouldn't have talked to me that way if she knows who i am.

"Good morning sir"

"Good morning sir"

"Good morning sir"

"Good morning sir "

My staffs greeted as I walked into the building.

I ignored all of their greetings and walked towards the elevator.

I pressed a button and the elevator door opened, i got in and it closed back.

Ding!, the elevator rang and the door opened. I got out, adjusted my tie and walked to my office.

I pressed some buttons on the wall and the door opened, I walked in.

Taking my seat i dropped my suitcase on the table and grabbed the telephone. I pressed some digits on the telephone and soon someone answered it.

"Good morning boss" my personal assistant, David, greeted from the other end

"What is on my schedule this morning" i asked ignoring his greeting

"Boss, you have a meeting with DMG company by nine" he said

"Is everything prepared" I asked switching on my laptop

"Yes sir" he replied

"Okay, what about the lady who is to resume as a secretary" i asked

"She is yet to arrive sir" David said softly.

"Tell her to meet me in my office once she arrives" i said

"Yes boss" David said .

I returned the telephone in place and turned my attention to the booting laptop.

I sighed on seeing all the documents scattered on my table , i sure have a lot of work to do. I always have a lot of work to do, as the CEO of HuxC, i own this huge and successful company, my company is the top successful company, in America and even in the world, i also had other companies in America and abroad. One thing i hate the most is failure, the fear of being mocked when i fail gives me stress and i make sure all my workers are hardworking , and now that i'm having a new worker , i would make sure she blends in , or else she's out of my company....
