Chapter 110: Chapter 110
(Vivienne)
"Thanks, Bobby," I said with cheers and dropped all the three bars of chocolate I had in my hands. He seemed surprised as he looked at me with a shocked expression "I'll take a while...you can go"I said waving at him and walking towards the entrance of the building. It had been a while since I came here. It looked a bit different or was it just that Victor's possessions were better and more advanced.
He was the better man and someone who I knew could make people tremble. I wondered how he felt about being rich, normally he was always grumpy and never smiled. He had everything at his disposal, he never lacked a dime but why wasn't he happy. I shrugged and held my black purse in front of me and the doors to the front entrance opened
The smell of lavender hit my nose as the cool air blew gently. I smiled and walked to the reception. The first time I came here, the makeup lady was so mean to me. The second time she didn't even want to look at me but I didn't care so I proceeded towards the private elevator which led straight to Victor's office.
By now I didn't have to ask if he was there knowing I was allowed to come and go as I pleased. The lobby was empty as usual and I knew the employees were working which meant the boss was around
"Excuse me...and where are you going?" someone asked just as I was about to press a button on the elevator and I turned around only to find a slightly tall man wearing a brown suit standing there with a dark expression. He didn't look happy to see me and the way his curly Ash brown hair fell to his face said it all
"I'll going to the boss's office," I said with a smile and turned to the elevator and prepared to present when the hand grabbed my hand and forcefully turned me around that his grip around my wrist was too much
"How dare you come here...do you have an appointment with the boss?" the man said with an angry growl as he pulled me forward ruthlessly. I didn't know what he was doing but he was causing me so much pain.
"Let...let go, you are hurting me," I said as I struggled to get out of his grip. He was a jerk for treating me in such a way. I wanted to scream but there was no one around. The elevator was down the corridors to the left and this area was rather hidden and some employees weren't allowed here as told by Beverly
"I'm only here to see Victor, "I told him. Maybe if I used Victor's name, he would be able to leave me alone but the man just laughed sarcastically as he sized me up as if I was nothing. His expression morphed into a mockingbird one as he stopped right in front of me
"I'm sure you are such a little bitch aren't you…"
"Don't you dare!"Before he could even finish a tight slap landed across his face, not just one but I smacked his other cheek as well so hard that his head turned the other way as he held his face which had turned red.
"How dare you!" he growled as he looked at me with anger in his eyes but I was also furious that all I wanted was to smack him until he was no more but I controlled my anger and smirked at him. He looked stupid with a red face. He wasn't so good looking and his small eyes didn't compliment his ugly face. His thin lips were too small and his protruding nose was like that of an evil wizard
"I'm here for your boss not you," I said and prepared to walk away but the man held me back by grabbing my arm again
"Did sir call you here...I don't remember seeing any appointment by some slutty girl!" he made a low yell and twisted my hand the other way. I winced in pain as I tried to move my arm back to its original position but the man was strong. I failed to understand why he was acting so mean when he could have asked me politely
"P...please let me go...what's your problem huh, "I said and managed to keep him off, I took a step back massaging my right arm which felt as if it had been ripped off its sockets. The bastard was so mean. I wondered why Victor had such harsh employees who weren't so polite
"Fool" I muttered and turned towards the elevator but before I could even get far the same man grabbed me by my hair and harshly pulled me back with so much strength that I winced in pain as he threw me on the floor
"What? Aren't you so tough now...get up you little slut...this is not your mommy's house where you can come and go as you please" the man said with an evil smirk as he lowered to the floor and looked at me. I gathered myself upholding my elbow and half sat. The damned out threw me so hard that my left elbow landed hard and now it was swollen and hurting like hell
", Now run out of here, or did you come to offer your little body to the boss...a woman like you can't get a job here...so ugly and filthy, "the man remarked with a smirk as he dug in his coat pocket not sure what he was taking out but I saw as he retrieved a wallet there. My eyes narrowed as I watched him open it and took out some cash
"If the boss rejects a slut like you...here," he said and threw money at me "come warm my bed" he added with a lustful wink and he rose to his feet and shoved his wallet back in his pocket. He turned around and of course, I forgot to remind him who was standing behind him the whole time and when he turned around. I saw as his face turned pale and took a step back
"S...sir...welcome"the same man stammered the words out and bowed before Victor who was standing there with a dark expression on his face. He looked like some dark prince with four huge men standing behind him wearing black suits. Just the sight of him standing there wearing black made me flinch in fear
"A slut?"Victor said mockingly as he looked at me and then back to the nervous man. I saw how he got scared at the sight of Victor. I knew Victor had arrived and was standing there when he was maltreating me. I wanted him to see the kind of employees he had who never respected people who came to the company
"S...sir...she...she was rude...she called you names and insulted you"the man stammered and I was shocked at how he lied. He made up a sick like that my eyes widened in shock as I shifted my attention to Victor who was standing there
"You paid her to have fun with her...you called her name's...what else is she apart from those despicable names you called her"Victor said as he walked a little closer to the man and I was stunned by the words he used. His voice was neither calm nor friendly but just cold and distant without any emotions whatsoever
"She...she's...I'm sure she came here to seduce you into getting a job...sir, women like her are despicable and…" the man said looking back at me with disdain in his eyes. I was surprised at how bad he thought of me when he just met me. I didn't even insult him and he was saying so many bad things about me
"You are fired...pack your things and leave...you seize to be the operating manager of my company!"Victor made. Allow yell which made everyone present flinch in fear. "Make sure you punish him severely for insulting someone he shouldn't have, "Victor added bitterly and the men nodded. The man was stunned by what Victor said. And I saw how nervous he was as he dropped to his knees
"Please sir...please don't fire me...this is the only stable job I could find please" he kept on begging but the four men who had been standing behind Victor rushed to pull him up and dragged him away. I felt sorry how he was getting manhandled as they led him away leaving only Victor and me standing there.
He didn't even greet me when he walked past me and went straight to the elevator. I sighed and followed him. The elevator doors opened and the man walked in, I didn't hesitate as I followed him in and held the pack of lunch and the blue file in my hands and the elevator started moving
It was very awkward standing beside him. It was my fault I came unannounced and ended up causing trouble but the idea that Victor saw through that advertising department manager made me smile. At least he didn't let him off with what he did. It made me think he wasn't so heartless after all. Despite everything he still could reason and saw bad people for who they were
"I'm sorry sir. I didn't mean"I said as soon as I cooked his office door and rushed to his desk. He didn't say anything to me when he saw me and now he was standing behind his desk folding his shirt sleeves. I stopped immediately I saw the condition he was in which made me frown
Why was his shirt wrinkled up, the top two buttons were open showing his chest. His hair was a little out of place not his usual way
"Anything the matter?" his deep voice jerked me back to my senses realizing I had been staring at him. But I couldn't stop thinking, a man only got that way only if he had been with a woman. I was a fool to think such things but what explanation could he give for being all messy as if he had been fighting with a woman romantically.
I didn't like the idea of him having his chest exposed, especially when he had beautiful female business partners. My heart ached at the thought of him being with another woman that I wanted to turn around and leave. Why did I even come here
"I went to the factory... something bad was about to happen...some machines fell off nearly hurting five of my employees and I had to help out", surprisingly Victor said as he shoved some things on his desk. I looked up at him with shock in my eyes as to why he was telling me this. Did he read my bad thoughts about him
"Are you okay?"I asked getting closer to the desk but stopped knowing I overreacted
"I'm fine...do I look that messed up?" he asked with a chuckle and I shook my head at him. I've never seen him chuckle before. I stared at him without blinking. He looked even more handsome and cute that I smiled faintly. It was awkward how I thought he was with a woman. What was happening to me? Since when did I become a jealous freak? I thought I had no jealous bones in my body.
