Chapter 17:
I was laying on my soft and comfortable bed when I heard  the slam of a door.
I got up in an instant and looked up shocked.
I saw no one, so I lay back in bed. I was about to welcome sleep again, when my bedroom door was pushed open and I was greeted by my best friend. But instead of a lovely awakening, I was awakened with frying pans.
I just saw Miranda hitting the frying pan with a wooden spoon. My patience had come to its limit, and I had gotten up from bed.
"What do you want Miranda?!!!!!", I yelled annoyed.
"I just wanted to say that it's already 6:30am, and you need to start getting ready for work." Miranda said while pushing me towards the bathroom that is inside my room.
"You go and take a shower while I pick out your clothes."
I opened the door of the bathroom and entered.
⏲⏲⏲⏲⏲7:30 a.m. ⏲⏲⏲
I got my purse from my bed. I was walking downstairs, when I heard Miranda yell, "  Angela! Don't forget to pick up the chocolate cupcakes from the bakery!!"
Cupcakes?
"Cupcakes?! For what?" I replied.
"For our chocolate night!"
How could I forget chocolate night?! Chocolate night is the most important day of the month!
Chocolate night is basically when we get any type of foods/pastries yet they have to contain in some way chocolate.
And I forgot today is chocolate night!
"Yeah, I'll pick them up after work!" I yelled back.
With that said I walked to my car and drove to work.

I walked past the glass door entrance of the building, and headed towards my office.
I entered my office and put my purse and coat on the sofa next to my desk.
I turned on my computer and was about to put in my login information when I saw a figure in the office's doorstep. I looked up and saw Andrew standing there with a small smirk on his face.
"What are you smirking about Andrew?" I said.
"Wow!*sarcasm* Not even a good morning." He said chuckling.
"Good morning, now what are you smirking about?" I asked impatiently.
"Well actually-" He was interrupted by Mrs. White.
"Mr.Blackwell I need you to sign these papers." She said putting the papers in front of Andrew.
While Andrew was signing the papers, Mrs. White was giving me an evil glare.
I'm guessing that Andrew noticed since he said the following.
"Here you go, Mrs. White. Oh and I would appreciate it greatly if you would please stop glaring at Angela."
Mrs. White basically just gave me a small glare and walked away towards her station.
"Thank you Andrew for defending me."
"Don't worry, I'll always try to defend you even if it costs me my life."
His life?
I think he's taking this friendship a little too far.

Andrew's pov:
Angela's expression of shock told me that I had taken my statement a little too far.
I cleared my throat and spoke.
"Either way, I came to talk to you about the annual meeting done by the top 5 companies of the country which you are a part of."
Angela then nodded as a way to tell to continue.
"I wanted to establish an agreement with the both of our companies."
"What kind of agreement?"
"I will be helping you with the expansion of your company's name in the eastern hemisphere and also with my alliances."

"Why are you doing this? It is supposed that you and I are rivals, there is no reason why you should be helping me and my company."

"Because...Because....Because I have my reasons." I stuttered.

"I feel like you are planning this big and grand plan. And you will not tell me what it is."

"Of course and I will not tell you what I am planning. Arrange everything so that I can sign the contract with Michael Bradshaw."

"Alright Andrew, I will tell my father of your planning."

Andrew nodded, and left my room.

I started walking to the phone in my desk, and started dialing my father's number. It was ringing, when Lisa entered my office. I signaled her to sit down while I just heard the ringing of the phone. Until the last ring, I heard Melissa, my father's assistant answer," Blackwell enterprises how may I help you?"

"Hello Melissa, this is Angela."

"Angela! How are you? I have not heard from you in a long time, ever since you left your parents to pursue your own life."

"I am doing great and I am currently working as the personal assistant of Andrew Blackwell from Blackwell company."

"That is great, how can I help you today?"

"I wanted to arrange a meeting between my father and Mr.Blackwell next week, so they can talk about business and contracts?"

"Next week the only day Mr.Bradshaw will be available to have a meeting with Mr.Blackwell would be on Thursday from 12:00 p.m to 2:00 p.m."

"He cannot have the meeting on Friday at 12:00 p.m?"

"No, I am sorry but he has a meeting with some investors at that time and day."

"Alright, I'll rearrange Mr.Blackwell's schedule that day, so they can meet I'll call you later to confirm the meeting."

"Alright Ms.Bradshaw, is that all?"

"No, how has my father been? I have not talked to him, because of my current schedule and I do not want to disturb him with all of his meetings taking place."

"Your father has been better, most of the investors with which he meets up with reject his offer because a certain company supposedly says that Bradshaw Enterprises are not trustworthy and that they should just go with with Jefferson and Son company. It is rumored that the Blackwell company is the one causing all of these problems. We all know that the Blackwell company has been trying to make an agreement with Jefferson and Son company for the longest of time, but for some reason Jefferson always rejects him. And let's face it, Mr.Blackwell does not have such a good reputation meaning that we can expect such things from him."

"I personally do not think that Mr.Blackwell is that bad of a person. Yes he does have quite a reputation, but we all have to believe that there is some good in the people that have been mean to us."

"I cannot believe you Ms.Bradshaw you having such a kind heart being stuck with a company that has such a reputation, and you still stay with them even though you are heir to a company yourself. That is quite admirable."

"Melissa, I am just trying to form a life with my own work instead being known as the heir of the Bradshaw company. I have been thought of as a superficial person due to my status, but I want to prove people wrong and show to them that I am more than just an heir of a company I want to show them who the real Angela Bradshaw is."

"I am glad for you, and that you have that mindset because frankly most of the heirs at your age should be taking their duties and responsibilities seriously instead having a life full of partying."

"Thank you Melissa, I shall see you next week on Thursday."

"See you till then. Goodbye"

"Goodbye" with that said I hung up the phone and I paid my attention to Lisa.

"What's wrong Lisa?"

"I just wanted to give to you the monthly accounting resume, so you can give it to Mr.Blackwell. And also as always, if you wanted to go to lunch Max?"

"Tell Max that I do not have time to go to lunch with him any time of this month or ever, because frankly I do not have time at all." I said grabbing the file and getting up from my seat.

"And if you'll excuse me, I have things to do." With that said I started walking towards Andrew's office.
