Falling For Him Anyway

Chapter 6

Xavier *just a few minutes ago*

"You're application is not complete, so therefore I cannot give you this job." I told the girl in front of me.

"Please I need this job!" She cried.

"Go back out there and find my receptionist. Her name is Evelyn. She'll help you apply for another position." I said. "A paid internship, perhaps. So you can learn what we actually do here."

She said nothing as she got up and stormed out my office,  letting my office door slam behind her.

I pressed a button on my phone. "Send in the next applicant."

But I got no answer from my receptionist. Instead I was listening in on a nearby conversation.

"Ladies is there a problem?" I heard the voice of my receptionist.

"She's in our seats." Two voices said at once.

Then one said. "Make her move now."

After a second a different voice could be heard. "Hey. Calm the fuck down."

"I didn't know pigs could talk Catalina." The first voice said.

"Me neither." Who I assumed was Catalina said.

"Yeah and I didn't know smurfs actually existed." Someone new said. "Walking in here like either of you run shit, you both look like damn fools. You've both got a lot of nerve to walk in looking like thing one and thing two and call somebody a bitch."

I decided that it was best if intervened before this could get any worse and got up from my chair.

I opened the office door and stepped out into the waiting area. "What's all the commotion about?"

Everyone in the room had been looking towards them. Now they all turned to me.

I looked at my receptionist and she shook her head and walked back towards her desk.

I assesed the two girls with blue hair. Obviously twins. Then the women they seemed to be arguing with.

One twin stepped forward. "Mr.Wells, sir, I am Catalina Marshall. My father is-"

"I know who your father is." I said and crossed my arms.

"Well this...imbecile has just disrespected him greatly and I formally request that you do not give her the job." She gave me a fake smile.

I looked towards the other women, who simply sat back down, and took out her phone.

"I just said what needed to be said." She said and put in her headphones. "Call me when it's my turn."

Catalina attracted my attention again. "Well, don't just stand there. Do something."

"If your father is as big as he thinks he is, then why are you here?" I said. "Evelyn call security to escort these two ladies to the door."

"Yes sir." She said and immediatley grabbed her phone.

I went back into my office and interviewed at least thirty more girls.

All of them telling me how much they needed this job and a few even trying to bribe me with sex.

My receptionist's voice echoed through the office. "Um Boss we're down to the last applicant."

"Send her in." I said.

The brown-haired woman walked in shortly after.

My eyes traveled her body. Her skirt was knee-legnth unlike so many of the other girls I had seen today.

Her blouse was buttoned all the way and her jacket was all the way on her shoulders.

She walked with confidence and elegance as she casually strolled into my office.

She sat in the chair across the desk from me and looked straight at me. Her blue eyes were gorgeous.

I looked down at her résumé to stop myself from admiring her any further.

"Gwendolyn Chambers." I read her name slowly.

I like her name.

"Yes?" She asked.

She looked almost bored sitting there.

"Tell me why you quit your old job at Fisher and Finch." I prompoted.

"Mr.Fisher was big on sexual harrasment." She responded. "He was convinced that he loved me."

I can see why. Her voice was smooth and musical.

"Why was this your first option?" I asked.

She shrugged. "I saw an oppurtunity and decided to take it. With a little help of course."

"Why do you want this job?" I asked her and leaned back in my chair. "Your credentials could get you a better job than an assistant's position."

"Well I've always been passionate about being able to afford things." She said and started to look through her purse.

I let out a small laugh and started shuffling the papers before me.

I want to get to know her.

"Well she has to be around for that to happen." My subconscious reminded me.

She stopped and looked at me suddenly. "I said that out loud?!"

"Yes." I told her.

She looked almost concerened about it. "Oh well. Can we wrap this up I have to get home to Chase."

Chase?

So she has a boyfriend?

"That was my last question for you, you've got the job, you were the most qualified out of everyone I saw today and the most sensibly dressed." I said.

"Thank you." She said and stood up immediatley.

When she opened the door my receptionist stood there and as the door began to close I saw them high-five each other.

Right before the door closed I heard her say. "I told you I would nail it."
