You're Mine (GXG) -Completed/Re-Editing-

NINE

BECKY POV:

The audacity ..

Ever since the moment Andrew "made himself home", he has been wandering around my things, smirking at me as if I was the object of some silly prank of his, and sniffing around things that were not his business.

For example, my employees roles in the mansion .

Now, he had the audacity to make a call with my phone without asking for permission .. When I caught him red handed, he only had this to say:

-" Sorry, but I had to get her number"

I sigh internally, and I think to myself how if Moly was around, I wouldn't even have to deal with this asshole. In fact, it has been a week since she left, and my life has been turned upside down without her ..

She really did spare me all the dirty work ..

I demand . " Do not ever touch my things ever again "

I wince when I realize what he has done. That was supposed to be a number that I never go near again. But then again, aren't we in the context of change ?

I scoff internally .

Way to avoid her by all means !

-" F*ck off from my room now "

He snickers as drags his ass outside when he stops at the door.

-" We start work tomorrow by the way right ?"

My heart was burning with rage, as if fire was emitting out of my nostrils.

I give him a deadly glare." F*ck.Off "

What the f*ck did my dad see in him ? Unless he wanted the company to go bankrupt, would he appoint this loser as a heir !

I shake my head; I had bigger fish to fry now anyways : I need an assistant/personal secretary, rather desperately ..

Moly was not returing my calls, and I didn't have to guess that she would soon hand in her resignation ..

[ THE FOLLOWING MORNING]

I have never co-owned anything. When it comes to things, or to people, it was either mine , or someone else's; either black or white , no grey , no beige ..

Saying that I had to be prepared for this long adventure would be an understatement . In fact, I didn't know how even getting ready for co-ownership was like . It was one thing to co-exist under one big roof where the halls were so many and the space was so big that we could ignore each other all day, but in running a company ?

To top it all, according to the will, " If one of the siblings refuses to work together, they will be denounced from their seat in the company ". Though, I remember Mr Paterson saying how there was a second part to this amemdement which will only be announced at a later date. 

In anyways, even after his death, my dad had quite the knack of putting chains around my neck .

If this situation wasn't enough, my dad's old lover came to wish us " good luck " for our first day . Never minding him, I summon my mom's personal maid.

I inquire, worry lacing my voice. " How is she ?"

The maid gives me a not so reassuring look and that was enough to realize that there was no progress yet in the situation ..

I sigh .

Suddenly, my dad's old lover speaks, and it was hard to believe but, there was some kind of gentleness and genuinety in his tone ..

-" I will look after her "

" Stay out of it " , was what I was going to say first . But it was only early in the morning , and it was as if I was already mentally drained out of my energy ..

I mumble . " Don't do anything stupid "

With that, I leave the mansion and I join my ride towards my dad's inheritance, as the sole co-heir of the Jones company ..

I even had to share my ride .

At this point, I realize that my life has officially became a third rate soap opera .

[TIME SKIP]

Luckily, we didn't have to share the same office. Otherwise , I could only imagine how tragic that would have been for my mental health .

As I watch Andrew make his way to his office made up for him -ironically across from mine- I get this bitter , intense feeling of betrayal; I hated to see him act like my dad's son, like my dad's fortune heir when he has done nothing for the company. At that specific moment, I have began to understand what mom meant by " Your dad has stabbed us in the back " .

He has , rather brutaly .

My hand curled into a tight fist, a rather sad smile forms on my lips when I realize how I was already aquainted with the feeling of being stabbed by the people that I consider the closest to me . Not so ironically, one of the those was alive and well, and she even became a star, thanks to my family's juicy news.

Even without meaning to do so, I was doing her so many favors;

By being me: Becky Jones.

I nearly jump when a low voice resonates in my ear. " Do you want me to kill him for you?"

She chuckles and I turn to find non other than Helena, my second favorite employee after Moly. She was a talented team manager of the sales departement, and was very content with her position.

I return her smile.

She laughs . " Where is Moly ?"

I sigh. " Long story. Mind getting me my coffee to my office this time ?"

She squints her eyes at me before noding . I thank her before I finally enter my large tidy office ..

The day passes by, and my best friend hasn't stopped by my office yet . By now, I begin officially worrying if I had made things that difficult between us, and I consider going to her place.

Someone knocks at the door and I allow them in.

Ot course, with the absence of Moly and a secretary, it was almost ten times more difficult to do my work. Since I couldn't possibly afford a single mistake or flaw on my performance , espcially now when I had what was basically a frenemy, there was no doubt that I had to get a secretary as soon as possible .

Hence, I called for the recruitment team to review the applications of potential secretaries profile and cheery pick those they think can make the cut ..

She hands me 3 applications, and adds.

-" The one at the top is the profile that stood out the most "

" Amanda Roberts "

-MBA in business and administration

- 2 years internship as a secretary in a famous clothing company in Japan

-1 Year volunteer as an event coordinator in Vietnam .

-Awards and Recognitiom : Employee of the month at X company, silver medal at JONES marathon anual .

-Hobbies : Photography , coffee art, and reading.

She seemed perfect, aside from her last name .

I glance at her picture, and I nod as I resume readimg the rest of her application more thoroughly .
