MADELINE'S POV

And I slept in late AGAIN.
I woke up at 1PM and remembered I have a meeting with Christian Horner. Mind you I only have one whole hour to get ready.

So, I woke up quickly got ready and had to skip brunch.

I went down at the hotel, searching everywhere for Horner, till I see him getting 2 coffees.

"Good afternoon, Christian."
"Hello Madeline, sit."

And i sat, I felt nervous. At night I was constantly thinking of what did he want.
I was first scared if he was gonna do some PR stuff like make me be a drivers fake girlfriend for the media.

" I heard you quit in Ducati as a Social Media Admin."

"Yes, I have. It was a very toxic place."

"Are you unemployed right now?" he asks.
"Yes." God I felt stressed. Why was he asking me this??

"I offer you to work as a Social Media Admin at Redbull. I saw your work at Ducati, you are very good with social media managing."

"Oh." "Well, I left because it was toxic."

"I know, but I promise you my team will not be allowed to make the staff members uncomfrotable, especially women."

I was confused of these words coming from Christian Horner, the same guy that dislikes women being into Motorsport.

"How much will I get paid for a year?"
"450k, if you manage every social media app, meaning Twitter, Instagram, Tiktok."

"I'll do it" FOR 450k??

HELL YEAH.

"Great, you can start your new job in Bahrain." he said and got up.

" Thank you, have a nice day" I smiled at him.

" You too Miss Norris."

Well, maybe this would be an amazing oppertunity, maybe it would be the worst decision I've EVER made.
But that's for later to find out anyway.

I ran to the McLaren Garage to find Lando.
"Hey Oscar, you seen Lando anywhere?"

"Hi Madi, yes he's in his drivers room" he replied.

I ran straight into his drivers room.

"LANDO LANDO"
"Jesus Mads how much coffee have you had"

"I'm working as a Social Media Admin for Redbull starting next week" I say. I was anxious, I first thought he'd get mad and say I messed up.

"That's wonderful!" he replies and his face lits up with a smile.

"What, really?" I got confused, what?

" I mean, I'll finally get to have you in F1, it's always been one of my dreams Mads even though I never told you".

All I did was hug him. He meant SO MUCH to me.

"I won't let ANYTHING happen to you here, I promise you wont be uncomfrotable from other staff, or anyone at all. I really am sorry for the shit you've dealt with at Ducati"
he said as he backed up from the hug.

" I love you Lando." I say.

"More sis" he replies.

Now I had to tell these news to Jorge.
How the fuck should I tell him. We've been having very recent fights, to the point where we almost broke up.

"I'm fucked if I tell him." I say outloud by accident.

"Huh?" Oscar turns to me confused of what I meant.

" Nothing no worries Oscar, have fun driving the car" I immediatly left the garage.

I won't tell him till Bahrain.
