DAISY

'Daisy! Thank god you're here'

The second I walk through the door, I get rushed over by Tamara. What could have possibly happened now?

'Mrs presnor has been looking all over for you'
I roll my eyes. Of course she's looking for me, as if her threats in her office weren't enough. 'How does she know I'm here?' I ask, looking around the room to see a crowded yet no presnors in sight. That woman is like a bat. She can come out anywhere at anytime. 'She saw you walk in with...'

'Jax...' I finish her sentence. 'What?' Oh. I forgot Tamara doesn't know jax's name. I clear my throat before nodding Tamara off. 'Go enjoy yourself tam, I'll go find her' she lets out a tired sigh. 'Thank you' her lips mimic the silent words. I watch as Tamara gets lost in the crowd. My eyes continue to dart around the room, looking for Mrs presnor and Jax at the same time.
I feel like I could get a headache anytime now.

I keep up with my search. Do I know exactly who I'm looking for? Not yet. Jax I'm pretty sure left the gala. As for Grace..she's definitely somewhere, maybe in her little corner searching for some gossips to use against every single person here. Her threats are endless. Sometimes I wonder why I didn't just leave the company when I found out about her personality, but it's too late now. I love my job way too much to just give up on it. Maybe dating Preston was the problem all along.

'Daisy, darling' my arms prickle up in goosebumps as I turn around to face that piercing voice.

It's Mrs presnor.

I take in a huge breath and give her one of my usual uncomfortable smiles. 'Grace' her eyes are weirdly wide, as if she's expecting me to say something.
'You was looking for me?' I ask. Her eyes go back to the usual way. God, she really is scary.

'Ah yes, I heard you arrived so I wanted to check up on you before you got lost in the crowd' she claps her hand together with a slimy smile. I raise an eyebrow. If I act like I have no idea about her plan, I will keep her from raising any suspicion.

'How about we go somewhere private to talk?'
I knew this would be her next move, but acting clueless and innocent is all I can do.

I nod to her request before following her to an empty hallway.

The hallway is long and the ceilings are so high up that you can barely see the ethereal paintings on it.

'I hope you have thought about the proposal'
My head falls down to Mrs presnor. I forgot I was even following her.
I clear my throat and give a little nod. 'Good. I am glad you know what's best for you' she smiles before handing me over printed pictures of a naked me...

My face turns red. I can't look at these pictures without the awkward thought that Mrs presnor has pictures of me naked and getting fucked by jax. God, how many times did she look at these pictures? And how many prints does she have?!

This is uncomfortable and weird.
A sickening swirl in my stomach causes bile to rise up my throat. I gulp down any sort of nausea filing up my stomach.

'I hope you know that there is no out from this daisy'
I nod, a bead of sweat rolling down from my neck.
'If you think to ever outsmart me, just know I got the pictures in every device'
She takes out a USB stick and a CD from her bag.
'Oh god...' I lose my balance at the sight of the USB stick and CD. This woman is insane. INSANE.
'I just thought you should know' a chuckle leaves her mouth after the last sentence. She places the evidence in her bag and shuts it, securing it from me ever taking it away from her.
