The Boss đŽThe Maid
Chapter 9 â€
Christabel in the boot!
I donât know if I should shout, cry or laugh. I donât just know.
She came down and dusted her dress and straighten her hair well.
âSir, I didnât mean to, there was no transport fare in my hand, thatâs why I hide inside your boot â
Seriously, if I had open the boot at the army checking point what would have been my fate now? They would think I kept her there.
âWhat if I had open the boot for the armies to check in, what would have become of me? â I asked.
âSir, I will try and explain to them â she answered.
I sighed .
â I was only teasing you and I didnât know you gonna go farâ I felt shivers running through my spine when I held her hand, and went in.
We walked in, my employees were staring at us and were gossiping, which was making christabel uncomfortable.
She removed her hand from mine coz I knew thatâs what they were gossiping about.
I got to my office and met Mr Kingsley walking to and fro , he saw me and gave me a dead glare. I turned to Christabel.
âThis my office and thatâs yours â I pointed to the office which was opposite mine.
My office was made of glass so I could see her anytime and whatever she do.
âWow! â That was what came out from her mouth only.
âMr Kingsley, am sorry for coming late, I was stopped by the armies â Trying to make things up.
âOh really! What if I cancel the deal Huh? â he fired.
âNo sir, please donât cancel the deal â I pleaded, heâs here with his problem.
âKeep your mouth shut, your amorphous amanuensis didnât tell you that am coming today or she told you but you forgot ?â
Ah God! He has started with his gigantic grammars of his again. He should just break them down.
âSir she told me, and I already told you what happened this morning, I was stopped by the armies â I replied as I covered my face with my palms.
âWhatever, let start the meeting cause I donât have time â I stood up and faced christabel.
âTell all the staffs we are having a meeting with Mr Kingsley â
She turned and I could tell sheâs nervous.
At the meetingâŠ
âGood morning everyone â I greeted them and they did the same.
âFirst, we are having a new employee here, her name is Christabel Desmond and sheâs my PA â I introduced christabel to them. she stood up.
âNice meeting you everyone â she greeted smiling.
âNice meeting you too, you are too beautiful â my secretary replied.
âYes, I thought she was his new girlfriend when they came in holding hands â
I smiled.
âit seems you loquacious have forgotten me right? Now start the meeting â he yelled making everyone stiffed.
Heâs just too proud.
âSir, we arenât talkative, they were only trying to introduce me to them as the new PA â christabel spoke out and all the staffs stared at her.
âWe you shut your desipient mouth up, it like you donât know me right? I can cancel the deal cause of your hauteur. You this inanimate charlatanâ
I looked at Christabel, her face was red.
âAm not a lifeless imposter sir, and you arenât the only educated person here, so stop being so dramatic â
âwhatâs she saying? I hope sheâs not looking for trouble â
âEducated you said? I thought I was only dealing with some depredators â he shouted.
âWe are not thieves! Stop all this vociferous of yours, you are too full of hauteur.
If not for your senility I would have given you a temerarious beating, you this supercilious, edentate, obese man. Adversary of progress! â
My jaw dropped!
She just insulted this man! Even Mr Kingsley couldnât say a word again, he was too dumb to talk. He just got his type.
Christabelâs pov
Mr Kingsley or Queen slay whatever he called his name has really got on my nerves so much that I canât take it.
He stood up and said the word âThe deal is cancelled â and walked out.
Every one gasped. They were whispering.
âShe just made that man cancel the deal âđș
â Thatâs serves him right âđč
âLet him cancel it, heâs just too proud for my liking âđč
âAnother business deal is coming, I like the way christabel put him in his place â đș
I searched for richard with my eyes and I saw him. I walked to him and placed my hand on his shoulder.
âSir, am sorry I make him cancel the deal â it wasnât my intention.
âDo you know how much money that deal cost? christabel you have just cancelled that deal â His voice was low.
âNow am feeling guiltyâ
I sighed.
âAm sorry boss, it wonât happen again â
âitâs okay, my only chance now is the McDonaldâs company, just pray they accept the deal which cost 14bn and not that 5bn you just cancelled â he answered and stood up.
âI just pray they accept the dealâ
The meeting was closed and soon everyone went home. it was I and Richard that went together in quietness.
we got home, I walked upstairs to go take my bath and was about to rest when I heard Richardâs voice shouting.
I quickly stood up, and saw him in the sitting room jumping.
âSeriously? what happened? â
I ran downstairs, he turned to me smiling.
âSir, whatâs wrong? â I was too anxious, seeing him smiling like this must have come out with a good news.
âGuess what? The McDonaldâs company just accepted the deal â he shouted.
âReally? wow let me see it â he handed me his phone and I could read the message that they accepted the deal.
I was too happy. I looked at him, he was really staring at me.
âCongratulations sirâ I smiled.
âYeahâ he walked towards me and pulled me into a hug.
my heart skipped. âHe just hugged me? â
Before I could blink my eyes, he kssed me on myâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ..
