The moment I got inside the office I could see everyone still doing their normal things and I saw Claire again. The moment I saw her I couldn't help but glare at her with annoyance.
I saw Abigail walking my way and I almost forgot about Claire being in the same office with me and focused my attention on Abigail. I gave her an apologetic smile
"I'm soooo sorry Abs. I was being so childish throwing tantrums at you and I know you were only trying to help me and I'm...."
"No no it's fine Jenna. I understand you were pretty pissed and needed to let out some steam. I forgive you" Abigail said cutting me off
I hugged her and felt a smile crept on my face
"But I wanna warn you about later. Whatever you're gonna hear I hope you won't throw another tantrum at me or your door because I don't think your fragile door can take so much force" I laughed at her yet wondering what will make me so angry.
But ignoring her comment I told her I needed to put the cake and gather everyone around.
I put the cake in the table and clap my hands as loud as possible to announce "To all me dearest colleague! Please gather around so we can celebrate Joanna's retirement. Because she has been working for this office longer than all of us so please give an applause to her right now" just as Joanna was walking nearer to me I quickly add in "owh and we would want to welcome Justin's new secretory too"
Just when I finished my sentences Claire came out with a smile on her face like she just won the pageant queen or had just been nominated as the prom queen. At the sight of her I couldn't help but glare at her and feel my blood boil like a hot water on a kettle.
I didn't hesitate any moment to find Justin. I cannot believe he hired her. That's not the worst part,the worst part is she is his assistant and now that we're having issues she comes along to make it even worst.
I saw Justin talking with Abigail and I knew what Abigail meant when she told me to not throw another tantrum.
"Why?" I cut in both of their conversation
"What?" Justin asked his eyebrows raised
"Why did you hire her?"
"I am the boss of this company and I needed a new assistant"
"There's a lot of assistants out there waiting for you to hire them and you had to choose her over all the better candidates out there" I said while crossing my arms
"Jenna you don't get it. She is the perfect assistant out there and I know it. I've known her for so long and I know she would be perfect for this pose"
"So it's not about the fact that you both used to date huh?" I asked with annoyance laced through every word
"Is this why your questioning me? Because of the same thing? Jenna I told you,we leave everything behind and focus on our job when we're in the company. I've told you that over and over already"
"This is not about that"
"Then what is it about?!" He asked raising his voice
By now everyone is looking at us.I gave up on asking or explaining to him. He never listens to me. Guys with their ego are just too much for me right now.
"You never understand what I want and feel " I bluntly said and walked away
I push everyone away while giving them an apologetic smile. I grabbed my things and walk through the staircase. I didn't want to wait for the lift and give Justin the opportunity to chase after me. I don't think I can handle seeing his face for the moment.
