Good job today
Good job...he actually complimented me??
Oh uh thank you..
He stood up and walked towards me, I think to myself
(Gosh he's so tall...I mean I'm not short either but gosh he's tall...what's he gonna do why is he coming towards me!!?)
He comes over and I close my eyes preparing for the worst but I feel his gentle hand on my cheek before he brushes a strand of my hair behind my ear
He chuckled at my reaction and backed away,
Keep it up.
He tells me and goes back to sit in his chair
(Does he seriously think it's fun to mess with me?!)
I leave the office and both Louise and Ethan are waiting for me,
Oh my god Liam did we hear correct...boss complimented you??
Louise asked with a look which I can only describe as someone who's seen a ghost
Yeah...why what's wrong?
What's wrong?? You're asking what's wrong?? I've been with boss for about 8 years and I've never seen him compliment someone! Gosh you're really special
Said Louise while Ethan nodded along
But it is a good thing you caught the thief...boss can finally relax now that we know who was stealing out money
Ethan added,
No it's ok... it's my job after all...
I try to be humble...
But still good job.
Ethan added
Thank you...
I reply and head back to my seat to continue another days work
SEBASTIAN'S POV
(Finally the issue that as eating me alive is gone...he's more competent than he looks I'll give him that...we can finally relax now)
I get up and pour myself some water when my phone suddenly rings,
Fuck...
I mutter under my breath as I put my glass down and pick up the phone
What.
I said to the person on the other end of the line
Boss...we have a problem here...there's a problem with out contract but our team can't seem to pinpoint it
The voice on the other line said
I'll be there in half an hour
I said while hanging up the phone, I don't like to go toy company because I prefer working here, the vice president is in charge of the company so why did they call me
I grab my coat and call Louise in and tell him the situation
I'll get everything ready boss
Louise said as he left my office,
I head outside and see Liam working on his desk like the whole ordeal didn't just happen like an hour ago
I go upt him,
Get up.
I tell him
He immediately stands up,
Y..yes boss?
Get your things ready you're coming with me.
I tell him,
Yes boss
Gosh he's so boring... something I can't explain...
I gesture him to follow me as we both left the mansion, got in a car and headed towards the city
At the company
People like to suck up to me here way too much...that's one of the reasons I don't like coming here. The fake smiles and fake greetings...they drive me insane
The car stops Infront of the office building, it's almost 20 stories tall almost as big as my mansion
I get out of the car and Liam follows me, I walk I side and see people immediately stop in their tracks and bow as soon as they see me, I don't enjoy all this attention one bit..
What's the problem?
I ask the director after reaching the top floor
Boss...there seems to be an error in these documents...there is something wrong with out budget sheet
I hold the bridge of my nose in frustration,
We have a whole accounting department here are you telling me that none of them could detect the problem?!!
I raised my voice
No...
The director replied sending me into a rage...
Liam...check the documents.
I say without breaking eye contact with the director
Liam hesitantly picks up the documents and I see his eyes scanning the page when suddenly he stopped at a point,
Here...I found it...
A low chuckle escape my mouth just as the director snatched the documents out of his hand and looks at them in disbelief...
I swear this wasn't here before! We all checked it!
I wanted to strangle him... Fucking wasted my time.
Tsk...you incompetent fools...
