The CEO's surrogate

Chapter 4

Mikayla's pov

The next morning arrived quickly and it was already the middle of the week and I still hadn't found a job yet .

Now I was beginning to worry not because I wasn't employed but because how frequently my landlord came to visit and remind me of the position I was in .

He knew how stressed I was and was provoking me multiple times and I wanted react but I couldn't . Knowing he could sue me or something worse .

Currently I sat in my kitchen scrolling through Google to see if there were any jobs available. But that was until I received an email from a company asking if I was in need of a job .
It was to be a secretary to the boss since the last one got fired and I did have experience. I quickly opened the email and read through it . I had to be there at 12:30 since I wasn't the only one who was sent the email.
I looked at the clock on the wall and it was 11:58 .

Oh shoot.

I rushed into the bathroom and had a quick shower . Working as a secretary all I know is that you need to look presentable.
So I ended up wearing a black pencil skirt and a white blouse I bought last year but had no where to wear it. I slipped on my black heels and looked in the mirror. My hair was hard to handle so most of the time I just slicked it into a bun . I didn't wear much makeup asides from concealer and lipgloss. I didn't think I needed it, and it's just a waste of time .

I arrived at the building which was massive it had about fifteen floors to be exact . But as I walked in it was amazing. The reception has an awful amount of space but it was perfectly organised.

"Hey my names Kaylee are you here for the interview?" A brunette asked walking towards me with a checklist in her arm "Erm yeah-"
"Great it's just this way follow me , may I remind you that there's a lot of people here willing to take the job so you might be here for a very long time-"
"That's okay I just really need this job."
She led us towards the elevator and pressed the seventh floor . "So are you new here as well?"
"No I'm a receptionist I've been working for mr Russo for nearly three years-"
"Mr Russo? Alessandro Russo?"
"Yeah that's why so many girls are here probably because he's looking for a new secretary most of them just want to see him , but you don't seem like that."
"Yeah he's good looking but that's not what I came for , like I said I really need this job ."

Turns out the elevators were quicker than expected because we already reached the seventh floor "I like you already ." Kay-lee said which made me smile "thanks ."

We both walked out of the elevator to find a long queue of people lining out of a room which I presumed to be Mr.Alessandro's office . "I'm sorry but this might take a while." Kay-Lee said behind me , I turned around and faced her "it's okay , I think it's worth the wait ."

***
The queue which held at least forty people went quicker than expected since apparently Mr. Russo was judging them by their appearances and kicked the. Out instantly .

To be fair he did kinda have a point some people dressed as if they were going to a night club or a party.

It was soon my turn and I walked in to find him sitting at his desk . God he was so good looking . He looked up from his Mack book and his lips curled into a smile "just the girl I was waiting for ." I heard him mutter

"Are you gonna kick me out to?"

He shook his head pointing to the chair in front of his desk "have a seat Mikayala."

I was actually surprised he revered my name considering I bumped into him like over a month ago . I sat in my seat and looked at him "let's get this meeting started."
