Chapter 18 - The Job (2/2)

” Which company is it? I will drop you there since we both gonna leave together.” I suggested as it would be helpful for her.

” No,my company is in opposite direction, so it'll take much time for you to reach your office after dropping me,besides if you drop me off with your car it might become a gossip plus you're quite famous so I don't want any paparazzi.” She laughed while pointing the fork at me.

” At least now you know how much I'm famous around the city.”

” Well yeah. I kinda saw you on few magazines and newspapers which were kept in the store room.” I frowned my eyebrows as I hear the storeroom.

” What were you doing there?”

” Just went to get some stuffs then my eyes went to those things. I never really read any magazines or business newspaper so I never knew. Any way I'll take a cab, it'll be better.”

” You sure? I can tell the driver to drop you off also.”

” Nah. I don't want any gossiping on my first day. I'll consider that option later but for now cab is the best option.”

”Fine if you say so. You will come back before dinner right?”

” Yes of course. Why are you asking?”

” Actually I was hoping if you could cook dinner sometimes like this. Only if you're not tried. I mean I know coming home from work then cooking dinner is hard but still you have Lucy to help you out.” I pressed my lips together, trying not to sound too needy.

” That's okay. I can still make dinner for us.”

We finished our meal and went to sleep. Next day I woke up and went to freshen up. I got dressed as my usual way. As I reached the dining table the food was already placed on the table. The sound of foot steps echoed in the room. It was Stella.

She was dressed in a formal way for her job with a white blouse and black pencil skirt. Her long black hair was tied in a a pony tail. Her front bangs were hanging from her forehead. The heels were not that high but she was not struggling like she did in Naples. She walked at the table holding the jug of orange juice.

” Good morning.”

” Good morning. That's a nice look for your first day. Beware of those seniors who harasses juniors.”

” Of course I'll be careful don't worry about me.”

” And make sure to inform me if you have any issues or problems.”

” Yes sir.” She put her hand on her head as if she's saluting me.

We ate our breakfast and finally it was time to leave. The cab was already waiting outside for her. She got inside the cab and waved me from the opened window.

”Bye”

” Good luck.” I wished her and waved my hand from my car as the cab drove away. I hope her workmates aren't bad.

Her company is well known around the city and it doesn't have any bad reputation so hopefully she is gonna to be fine.

The Michel's And Son is a company owned by Adam Harrison. The company is founded by his grandfather and also named after him. But since he's the only son in this generation the ownership comes to him automatically.

I'm don't have that much information on their company but I'll look into it for safety purposes. Theses days it's common of female workers to be harassed in their jobs. Stella isn't that bold or clever. She might end up in a bad situation if she gets into their contact. Anyway I'll ask John to look into this matter so in future I can avoid any mishaps.

Stella is my legal wife so it's my job to protect her. It's my responsibility. Although I was never this eager to conform anyone's safety before.
