AMAYA

CHAPTER 3

AMAYA'S POV

"Are you kidding me? December?" She nodded her head carelessly.

"Take it or leave it?" She glared at me and i swear i wish to kick her ass.

"Whatever just do it?" She happily types for me the appointment in her laptop.

"Done. Anything else? "She asked me and i looked at her with murderous eyes.

"How about you set an appointment to visit the washroom too?" She gasped at me and i walked out of there. Fine! Plan A failed lets go ahead with plan B.

As i walked out of the building, i suddenly bumped into someone. Ouch my head hurt so badly. I heard the person cursing at me for being so careless and i wanted to give him a piece of his mind. No one messes with me.

"Can't you look where you are heading?" He said and I swear his voice seemed so familiar... wait? Could it be? Holly shit.

I looked up to see him. It was him, Mr. Newman stood in front of me in his mighty glory. He smelled so good. He was so close to me that I could smell him so deeply.

"You again?" He hissed the moment our eyes met. Shit! Could my day get much worse? I just remained quiet.

"What are you doing here?" He asked and I was speechless all of a sudden.

I just stared at him like he was the last man standing. He is so cute more than how he looked in the photos. Those pictures don't do him justice at all.

"Hey I am talking to you" I got startled and came back to my senses. I felt so embarrassed that he caught me checking him out.

"Oh! Mr. Newman I am sorry... I..." I stammered miserably. He looked so furious like he wanted to murder me any second from now. Oh no!

"What are you doing here?" He asked again.

"I am here to talk to you about what happened earlier before the meeting. I know i said bad words which made you offended and because of that my company lost the deal. Please give us another chance?" I pleaded like an idiot.

He looked at me with a very serious and intimidating face.

"Miss Madrigal, let me be frankly clear with you. I don't mix personal feelings with work. So don't flatter yourself with that. Your company lost the deal because of your poor presentation. It either you work harder on that part or no deal at all. See you on Monday" he said and walked past me. What? I just stood there like a crazy woman. Unable to take what he said.

"And don't ever show up your face to me again without any appointment" i heard his voice behind me. Gosh! This man is crazy. I turned back and saw him entering a lift with his bodyguards tailing behind him.

I groaned with disappointment, he is so rude. I got out of the building and got to a taxi and went back to the office.

"What? On Monday?" Sarah said panicking after explaining what happened.

"Yes he wants us to present again on Monday and I can't help but be so nervous about it. He is a hard man to please so we really need to work harder" Sara nodded her head at me.

"We can do this. We are so getting this deal" I glared at her with my eyes wide open.

"Why are you so sure?" She winked at me.

"Instincts" I rolled my eyes at her.

I needed to talk to my boss as ASAP to tell him about what happened. I knocked on his door and he said a "Come in" I entered inside and he was busy reading a book. He always did, he was that much of a reader I can say.

"Sir" I called out and he raised his head to face me. He heaved a deep sigh and by the looks of it, he wasn't happy to see me here. Yes of course, he couldn't be happy after I screwed his biggest deal ever.

"Amaya? I hope you have something good to tell me because if not, you better leave until you have some". Oops that was rude!

"Well, I may have some good or bad news I guess" he frowned at me, but I chose to continue talking.

"The good news is I managed to talk to Mr. Newsman" His eyes widened. "You did ?" he asked completely shocked. "Of course I did sir, I told you I would make this right and he offered us another chance, We have up to Monday to work this out and present to him" his face softened a little giving me relief.

"How were you able to talk to him? As far as I know his schedule is booked throughout the year."

"Uh, yeah about that, I may have bumped into him the moment I was leaving his building after making a December appointment with through his secretary"

"You what?" he scoffed.

"Sir, I had it under control, I mean it was a good thing that I bumped into him anyways, that way I got to talk to him" He shook his head. "Amaya, you are such a trouble maker" I scratched my head hearing that, he always told me I was a hard worker and maybe the best but I am so troublesome and very clumsy.

"So why did he refuse the deal? Did you apologize to him?" I rolled my eyes.

"Don't roll your eyes at me Amaya, how many times should I tell you that?' Opps.

"Huh, sorry" I beamed at him, he shook his head as he sighed deeply.

"He said he never mixes business with personal feelings, he rejected the presentation because it was poor" He frowned.

"And do you think it was poor?" he asked me.

"I don't know sir, but one thing is for sure. He is such a complicated man so its hard to please him, we really need to work our ass off"

"Amaya, that word" He scolded me again, he never liked me using such words as 'fuck, ass and so on' and most of the times I found myself saying them and regret later.

"I am sorry sir" he shook his head again.

"Okay fine, just do what you have to do. We need to get this deal, organize your team and make this happen, if you guys have to work day and night then so be it" He said with a serious tone.

"Rodger that sir" I smirked at him.

"Are you allergic to formal words?" he scolded me again, huh this man is formal.

"Sorry" he raised his hands up for surrender.

"Just go" he waved me off.

I turned wanting to leave but then he said "Its either the deal is on or you are fired Amaya" my eyes widened.

"I will get this deal that I promise you" he shrugged and then I had something in mind.

"Sir, I have an idea" He looked at me intently.

"Let me hear it" he said and I heaved a sigh before starting to explain.
