Chapter 2: Game on
Skylar changed her clothes after arranging her belongings, then she went to the main house to know if Richard wanted anything. As she entered the house, she realized that she didn't know her way around.
The mansion was big and spacious, making sounds echo in them. She noticed there were lots of doors and corridors but she didn't know what was behind the doors as she was not given a tour when she arrived.
She climbed the stairs and wandered around, observing the majestic house. She was so lost in her quest that she did not notice the man staring at her with a scowl.
"Are you a thief?" The unexpected sound of the voice startled Skylar that she nearly jumped. She turned around to see Richard standing by a door post with his arm crossed.
"What did you call me?" She asked. She could not believe that he just asked if she was a thief.
"Well, what do you call someone who is creeping around a place they are not supposed to be?" he asked.
"Someone who is lost because she wasn't given a proper tour of the building," she retorted.
Richard raised his eyebrows in surprise, he didn't expect such fire from someone who was staring at the floor while talking to his mother earlier.
If she's afraid of my mother, I'll make sure she's afraid of me too.
"I understand why you would get lost, it's your first time out of the jungle," he said as he saw the corner of her eyes twitch in anger and he smirked. Pointing at the door where he stood, he said "This here is my room which you'll have the privilege of cleaning, and the kitchen is downstairs, end of tour, bye."
Skylar could not believe the arrogant handsome devil just insulted her. She was trying to hold back her anger because she needed the job. She wouldn't want him to give a negative report to his mother.
"That's it?, I'm supposed to open every door to find the kitchen?" She asked and he shrugged. She took a deep breath as her nose flared.
"OK, what do you want for lunch Richard?"
"It's Mr Richard to you, order some pizza, pepperoni to be precise. here's some money."
"I can cook you know," She told him as she received the money.
"I'll try your poison another time, for now make my order. Do you understand?" he asked. Skylar was fuming with rage but she refused to argue with him. She couldn't wait to leave his presence.
"Yes"
"Yes what?" He asked, cupping his ear with his hand as if he couldn't hear her.
"Yes Mr Richard."
"You know what? I change my mind. Call me boss," Richard ordered with a satisfying smirk on his face.
"Yes boss." Skylar said with her teeth gritted together. She couldn't believe she had to work for such an annoying jerk.
She couldn't let him treat her that way without retaliating. He held her employment in his hands, so she must tread carefully. She just had to look for a way to get back at him without breaking the rules of her employment.
She needed loopholes and she must find them. Just then, a thought came to her head and she smiled evilly. Alright Richard, game on!

Chapter 3: Hot Treat
"Can you use extra jalapenos to make it extra hot and spicy, I'll pay extra if you want... Alright thank you." Skylar dropped the receiver after placing the pizza order. She couldn't help but twirl with joy.
She made her way to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator and cabinets to take stock of the available groceries. It turned out, he barely had anything. She wondered how he managed to stay fit if he only ordered his foods.
Grabbing a pen and a jotter, she wrote down all the ingredients and household items she would be needing to run the house.
Seeing as the mansion was lacking a lot of house care things, her list was long. She was worried that Richard would not give her enough money to get them all or worse still, he would accuse her of theft again.
Her thought went to the arrogant jerk as she wondered what he was doing at the moment.
Meanwhile, in Richard's room, he sat at his work desk and wondered what the new girl was up to, he realized he didn't even know her name.
He didn't want another housekeeper to take care of him. She was the fifth one in two months. It was only her first day but somehow she has made more trouble than some past housekeepers did.
He recalled the worst one, she would go to his room and sniff his clothes. She eventually started leaving love notes for him to find. He was so freaked out by it that he threatened to feed her to rabid dogs, that was why he was furious when he discovered that his mom had hired another young lady. He was going to make her life miserable until she quits like the rest.
Ding Dong!
Skylar broke from her reverie and ran to get the door, she was so excited that she almost tripped. After paying for the pizza which cost less than the money he gave her, she shut the door and proceeded to Richards room.
Knock knock!
She rapped at his door while balancing the pizza box on the other hand.
"Who's there?" She heard Richard ask. She rolled her eyes at his antics because she knew he was aware that they were the only two people in the house, so she was definitely the one knocking.
"I have your pizza," she replied.
"Drop it out there, you shall not enjoy the privilege of entering my room yet," he answered. That angered Skylar but the thought of what was to come made her smile. She dropped the pizza box by the door and went downstairs to await the inevitable.
She was still going over her grocery list when she heard the unflattering scream of a man. She covered her mouth and laughed so hard, tears were coming out of her eyes. She was still laughing when she heard the thunderous footsteps marching down the stairs. She pretended to be studying the list when Richard approached her.
"Can I help you with anything. Boss" she drew out the last word suggestively and smiled like an angel.
"Cut that innocent crap, you ordered a spicy pizza!" he exclaimed.
"Yes, I did. What is the problem?" she asked, feigning confusion.
"The problem? the problem is that you didn't order what I told you to, you disobeyed your boss and for that, I'll have to review your employment status!" he yelled, visible veins were popping from his neck and his face was flustered.
"Ah but you're wrong. You see, you requested for a pepperoni pizza which I ordered, but you failed to tell me if you wanted it spicy or not. I figured you might get angry if it was plain and since I don't have the privilege to enter my bosses room to ask, I decided to make the decision for you." she explained calmly with an evil grin and then poured some water in a glass.
"Drink this, quench your thirst. Now, what would you like for dinner?"
