Kapitel 14: Chapter 14
Paisley POV
Looking at the time it was already 4 pm just an hour more! In an hour time, I will be able to go home and get some well-deserved rest.
Thinking this made me excited and anxious. I quickly finished the document I was typing and went into his office to submit it.
"Sir here is the document you asked for" I told him while dropping it on his desk.
He picked it up and glanced through it
"Good job Miss Ryan" he dryly complimented. He actually sounded a bit angry. I guess he is still upset with me, but why!
Since there was nothing left to do or say I left his office. I actually contemplated on asking him to let me leave early today but with the sour mood he had been in since morning, I decided against it.
Just one more hour!
I tidied up my desk and waited for the clock to strike five!
Just a few more minutes
Ding!!! The elevator sounded
Looking up I saw a young lady coming towards me with a cart filled with documents
"Hello, I'm Sandra from the record office. I was asked to bring up these documents" she told me when she noticed my questioning look
Glancing at the pile of documents, he is surely going to work till late hours today.
Been ahead is really such a hard task!
"Hello Sandra, hold on a bit please, I'll inform him of your arrival" I smiled at her
Calling his office he picked up almost immediately
"Sir, there are some documents from the record office here" I told him
"OK, I need you to review them all and send me your summary before the end of today" what did I just hear? What happens to my sleep then?
"But sir, the document is much" I held in my frustration and tried to sound as normal as possible
"Well then get started on them" with that he ended the call
I felt like crying! I looked up at Miss Sandra and wondered why couldn't she wait for four more minutes.
Four more minutes I would have been out of here, I would have been on my way home to my bed!
I asked Miss Sandra to drop the cart with me and when she left I matched to his office
After I received an affirmation to go in "sir, it's 5 pm already. Can I please do them by tomorrow if it isn't urgent" I asked the minute I walked in
"Miss Ryan, as the PA to one of the leading companies in the world I'm sure you knew there would come a time when you'll have to work overtime right" without waiting for my response he added "well that time is now, if it's too much of a task I'll have no choice but to let you go" he said while looking straight at me
I really want to cry right now!
Those papers, I wouldn't even finish them in less than five hours if I was well-rested not to talk of right now when I'm so fatigued that all I wanted was to sleep
Swallowing my grievances "I'll get to work right now sir" I left his office to my desk where I looked back at the piles of document
Well I might as well start right now
Picking the first document I realized the project was already done. Could there have been a mistake?
I picked four more documents and realized they were all completed jobs!
Well, there is definitely a mistake somewhere!
I called the record office department
"Hello this is Paisley, Mr. Crosby requested for some documents but it seems you made a mistake. The documents you sent up are concluded projects" I was beyond frustrated. Right now I'm stuck here in the office but they still had to add more to my problems by making such mistakes!
"There was no mistake Miss Paisley, we sent up exactly what was Mr. Crosby asked for" he responded confidently
What he asked for?
That doesn't make sense, why would he keep me here to review and summarize projects that have already been completed?
"Are you certain" well now I had doubts
"Yes I'm Miss" he responded still confidently
"Thank you" I ended the call and picked the documents.
I raised my hands to knock but dropped it. Heaving a sigh to get my emotions in check I knocked.
The last thing I needed was to embarrass myself by crying in there!
"Come in" his voice answered
"Sir there seemed to be a problem, the documents that were brought up for review are all completed projects from months ago and some were even from last year" I told him emphasizing on the last year part
"So" he asked indifferently without looking up from his work
Does this mean he really asked for these documents????
"Sir, since it isn't urgent can I review them tomorrow?" I asked hoping he would let me leave
"I thought we already discussed this Miss Ryan. Do I have to repeat myself?" OK, he is angry but why?
"I'll get to work then" I glared at him while biting my lips to hold in my cry
I left the office to buy some snacks and drinks. If I'm going to be sleep-deprived I won't be hungry too!
I thought of getting him some but with how much of an ass he has been I decided against it.
On getting back I met him furiously pacing around
What got him so riled up!
"Miss Ryan!" He angrily called out when he noticed my presence "where have you been?" He questioned
"I went to buy some snacks since I'll be staying here till late hours" I explained.
He couldn't have needed me to do anything within the few minutes I was out right?
"Was there anything you needed?" I asked
"Never mind, get to work" he turned and left. What got stocked in his ass!
I got working
Since he needed a review on completed work I would get him reviews!
The time flew by, he would sometimes come out of his office but then leave without saying or doing anything!
I have gone through more than half of the documents.
Reviewing them made me realize why Crosby Inc. Is at the top in the industry and how big of a workload he had.
His office door opened once again just when I had thought he would leave without saying anything
"Is that a menthol?" he asked. I had menthol-flavored chewing gum on my desk which I bought to stay awake
"Yes sir, it's a menthol-flavored gum" I responded. I sounded so tired
"Can I have some?" He looked at it longingly, Is he still the same boss from hours ago or does he have a personality disorder?
"Sure" I passed it to him
"Thank you" he dropped it into his mouth and he returned the rest"seems you'll soon be done with the review" he commented looking towards the cart
"Yes sir, I'll be done before the end of today" I'm hoping to finish it before or by 10 pm today!
"Uhm... Great then" he turned and left
Should I have gotten him some snacks, he is also working till late.
Thinking this, I picked up a Duncan Hines red velvet cake and a drink and headed for his office.
"Sir do you need snacks" I asked to which he nodded. Looking around he doesn't seem like he had anything doing.
He couldn't have been waiting for me right!
The review must really be important if he stayed here
Was that why he kept on coming out?
Should I ask I wondered
He must have noticed how conflicted I was "don't feel pressured Miss Ryan, take your time and finish the review. I'm not in a hurry" he told me
"OK sir" don't be pressured? as if! I should hurry and get it done as quickly as possible!
Should I hide some documents? I mean he didn't even check them!
But then I remembered what the record office department secretary said they brought exactly what he requested for!
Sighing I got working. Four documents later I received a call from my newest acquaintance Jaxon
"Hi beautiful" his flirty voice greeted
"Hey you" I responded tiredly
"You sound so tired, don't tell me Blake overworked you" I smiled at how concerned he sounded
"No, I'm just sleepy. How you doing though"
"Then you should be sleeping" he stated. I would have been doing that if your brother didn't keep me here!
"I would soon, I just have some work to complete" I didn't feel like letting him know I was still at work
"Then complete them tomorrow, from what I know you ladies need your beauty sleep. Don't be like your boss who overworks himself " he advised
Laughing "I'll try not to" we spoke for a while before we ended it.
Finally done few minutes before 10 pm I gave the review to him.
I called for a cab and headed for the ground floor. While waiting his car stopped right in front of me.
"I'll drop you" he told me or should I say informed me
"I called for a cab already" I responded hoping he would just leave
"Evelyn and Gavin would have my head if they find out and moreover it isn't a big deal. So hop in" he insisted
"But I already called for a cab" I really didn't want to ride with him
"Then cancel it" his tone didn't give me the courage to argue more. While I was still thinking of what I should do the cab came
Yay!!!
"My ride is here sir" I informed him happily. His gaze darkened and he stepped out of the car.
He walked over to the cabman and handed him a hundred-dollar bill after talking to him in a hushed tone.
The man joyfully drove off
"Too bad Miss Ryan, your ride just left. Hop in" he smilingly said. His smile isn't the cheerful happy smile more like the I got you where I wanted kind of smile
I felt like throwing a tantrum but then I obediently went into the car and he rode off looking pleased!
"I'm hungry, since I skipped dinner. Should we get a bite before I drop you home?" He asked looking over at me.
I never asked you to be a chauffeur
"OK" I answered in the calmest tone I could
He looked over to me and he seemed conflicted with himself but he said nothing.
Noticing how he kept on driving towards my street
"Won't you be stopping for dinner" I questioned
"Are you hungry?" He asked which I said no to. I wasn't actually hungry not after finishing all those snacks.
"Then I'll just drop you home. You seem anxious on getting home" he said sounded angry or was that disappointment in his voice
"I could wait for some minutes" I told him
"No don't you worry about me. I'll get you home soon" and that was the end of our conversation. The ride was silent but unlike last time it was very much uncomfortable!
I was extremely glad when he pulled off in front of my apartment.
"Thank you sir for the ride" I was grateful. Yes he made me stay to work but he wasn't obligated to bring me home
"You're welcome" I turned to leave but he called me back "Miss Ryan, I hope to see you early tomorrow, don't let anything or anyone keep you up" WHAT! Before I could respond he drove off.
He was the reason why I stayed up late!
I was so angry even when I got to my apartment the anger stayed in me
What is he thinking!
Just because I came in late once doesn't mean I'll be late always
And moreover I apologized already.
If Avery hadn't messed with my head and he didn't pop up in my sleep I wouldn't have been late!
I wish I could scream at his face right now
I took a shower and tried sleeping!
I can't believe how I finally got to my bed but can't sleep because of him
Once again it's because of him.
I tried to make my mind blank and finally I slept off.
What a day!
