Chapter 6:- Meeting Mr Arrogant Again.
The sky seemed to land heavily on Damilola, as she felt the heaviness of James's words on her.
How can this be? How is it even possible that she was going to be working for Richard Brown McCall? This isn't possible. It only happens in the movies.
She was so shocked that her mouth was left agape.
She was speechless. This was too unrealistic to take in.
James smiled and said, "Why do you seem so shocked? You can reject the offer, you know."
"No, no, no. It is fine. In fact I love it. Please don't reject it for me."
"Okay, if you say so," he said with a smile.
"Thank you very much, sir, for accepting me for this job. But I don't get why Mr Richard would want to choose someone like me as a P.A, he is so rich and can get even the best personal assistant in the world. So, why me?"
"Like I said earlier, miss, it is just for a week and you were recommended by Mr Brian. Anytime, Richard comes here, he chooses an assistant. It is not new. He has been doing that for a while now. Why he does that, I don't know. You should probably ask him yourself. Little advice from me, though. Don't ask him or you will regret it."
"Okay, Mr James"
"Since you are taking the job, go straight to his suit on the 35th floor. I will forward your picture to Richard, so, his bodyguards can be informed that you will be coming over."
"Okay, sir". She replied as she walked towards the door. She stopped in her tracks abruptly and stared at James. She wanted to ask a question but was not sure if it will be okay to.
After contemplating for a while, she decided to forget about her question.
Walking towards the door, she heard, James's voice.
"You wanted to say something?"
"Yeah, sir. If you don't mind," she said, finally deciding to ask the question which had been bothering her mind since she was asked to be Richard's P.A.
"Of course I don't, go ahead."
"Are there things I need to know about Mr Richard? His likes, his dislikes. Everything that can help me work better to serve him."
"If there are any more things you need to know, I will bring to your notice," he said standing up from his seat, walking towards her.
"Okay, sir. Thanks for your help so far."
After asking her questions she left.
She went straight to Richard's suite, breathing heavily. She was so nervous. She was really going to see Mr handsome again.
She walked slowly, to the elevator and went down to the 35th floor. That floor had always been occupied by Richard, only.
Immediately she came out of the elevator. She was stopped by two bodyguards, who were standing very close to the elevator..
She was searched thoroughly with about three security detectors. The first set of bodyguards searched her with an 'hand held metal detector'.
Few metres away from the first two bodyguards, she met another set of bodyguards.
She was searched this time with an 'explosive detector'.
Since she was with no baggage, she wasn't scanned with an x-ray baggage scanner.
At the door of Richard suite, she was searched for the last time with a 'dangerous liquid detector'.
After taking all safety precautions, the bodyguard let her in.
