The Billionaire's Ex' Biggest Mistake

4| Don't cross the line

The middle aged woman in white sleeve, black suit trouser adjusted her prescription glasses and lifted her eyes from my files to me.

"Are you sure you owned this credentials?"

I don't get it. If not me then who?

I try not to laugh. Besides, my three friends are here standing beside me.

"Of course yes, Patricia." Rebecca chuckled, helping me out.

Patricia shook her head helplessly and adjusted her glasses before scanning through my files again.

"Okay, fine." She exhaled, closing the white booklet. "You have good qualifications for this job. I saw it all in your file. But do you have the ability to do well?"

Of course yes.

I've been Humpty Dumpty in the whole city since morning and she takes this job hunting as a joke?

"Yes, please." I gave her pitiful eyes. "I really need this job so badly like the last bar of my life. It's my only hope of providing my needs before the baby—"

I stopped when my friends poke my arm.

Patricia gave me a weird look. I ignored it, clearing my throat. "I mean, I would be forever thankful if this job is given to me." I grinned.

Patricia shrugged, taking a deep breath. "Well, it's so unfortunate that I won't be the one offering you this job—"

Rebecca cuts in before my eyes bugged. "Patricia..." She stretched the name with a grin. "Right now, we're all relying on you for this. Please be nice and help our best friend? You know how crazy boss his and his deputy? Pfft! They're both the same."

Now something gat me thinking if I won't be having hard time with my maybe-M.D.

"Mrs Coleman." Patricia said to Rebecca. "I have no say. I'm just a staff here, how do you expect me to do the job of our boss?"

"We're not asking you to do his duty." Flora chimed in, placing her hands on the desk. "All we're asking is just a little favor behind his back."

"Come on, Patricia. You're one of the oldest employee in this company. You've been working here since the time of our boss's father. It won't be difficult for you to shuffle Laura into any of the vacant department?" Emily added.

"That's for you." Patricia pointed at her. "He won't take it likely when all of these..." She waved her hands in the air. "Links out. And moreover, even if I take the risk of employing her myself and hiding her datas in one of boss's files for signing...it won't stock up in the software and he's too quick-wit to find out."

"So what do you suggest we do?" Rebecca tilts her neck. "I can't let my friend go home empty without a job."

All these moments, my head and neck kept turning and tilting towards different dimension at the faces talking.

"We promised to help her get a job in as much we don't know if it'd work out or not. We just hope and count on you. Boss is not a easygoing person, he may just shu her away or....who knows?" Emily shrugged.

Patricia paused for a while, staring at all of us. "Then give it a try. Take her to his floor."

My friends gasped.

"You can't be serious."

.......

Immediately we stepped out of the elevator, we head for the hallway that leads to the MDs office.

According to Patricia, she said the boss's office is in the presidential floor.

And that's where we are, but why are they hiding behind me and pushing me forward?
