My Father's Best Friend

Chapter 2

I stood in the mirror patting down my skirt until it was smooth. I fix my hair one last time before driving to Kole's building. I rode the elevator up to his office smiling at the lady sitting behind the desk "I have a meeting with Kole Williams."

She looked in his diary "go straight in."

I pushed open the big black doors to see him sitting behind his desk on the phone. He smiled at me pointing to the chair in front of him. I quietly sat down placing my hand and beside me. He ended the call ten minutes later. He smiled warmly "good morning Morgan."

I smiled happily at him "morning Kole."

He clapped his hands together then pushed a manila folder towards me "here is a contract for this job. You will make a decent wage and work standard hours unless required to work back, which, if that is the case you will earn overtime. We do a weeks travel every second month for business but you do get about a days down time as my personal assistant you are required to travel with me."

I interrupted him "I thought it was a normal assistant not your personal assistant."

Kole grinned "I thought you would say no if you knew that one minor detail. I work most days of the week only having Sunday off most weeks. I don't have a lot of time to do things for myself which is why I want to employ a personal assistant."

I nodded "what would be my role?"

"You would collect and drop my dry cleaning. Make sure I eat and occasionally get me a meal. Make my appointments and dealing with my correspondence and phone calls. Maintaining and organising my diary, you will work with Mary to book meetings and appointments. When we go away you will need to arrange travel, transport and accommodation."

I nodded "that sounds easy enough."

I opened the file signing on the dotted lines "would mind giving me a tour of my new workplace?"

Kole nodded "that was a promise. Let's go."

It took twenty minutes for Kole to show me around all of the areas I may require to go but I think I am going to like it here. When we got back to the office Kole pointed over to a desk covered in files. I cocked my eye brow at him "why is it already sky high with files?"

Kole laughed "need you to memorise these people for when we attend events just in case I forget names. Then they need to be filed in alphabetical order but Mary will show you where they belong. You start at nine tomorrow."

I smiled nodding my head "I will see you then."

Kole's Point of View
I smiled as she entered my office door. I was on the phone to a friend of mine that was holding a charity ball that I had brought tickets to. He long ago invested in my company and I made him his millions. He was one of the first people that wanted to jump on board and give me a chance.

She looked beautiful as she sat in front of me, she kept herself entertained by looking around the office. My eyes were drawn to her bare legs. Her lower lip unintentionally entering her mouth as she was deep in though. It made my lower half throb with need. I haven't always been attracted to her, it's only been the past few years as she grew.

I mess with her and occasionally flirt but at the end of the day nothing will come of it. She is far too young. I ended the phone call pushing the document over to her, hoping that she won't want the job. It's hard enough seeing her on my time off let alone at work everyday. I wasn't expecting her to take the job.

She signed quicker than I thought especially after I let it slip that she would be my personal assistant. She continued to surprise me during the tour when she would comment on the art pieces around the place.

Morgan's Point of View
I jumped into the car and drove to one of the nearby cafes. I sat down at one of the chairs outside ordering a black coffee. I pulled out my phone sending a message to my dad to tell him everything went fine before I called the University to withdraw.

The was a quick process and they gave me a week to change my mind before finalising it. I clicked into social media but my attention was interrupted by a chair scrapping in front of me "you didn't get very far."

I laughed "I only left your office an hour ago."

He laughed "this is one of my favourite cafes in the area. I'm glad you are getting familiar with the place, do you mind if I sit?"

I nodded "as long as I can pick your mind about my dad." Kole nodded his head sitting down "I called the university and withdrew my position, how would you suggest I tell him. I don't want to disappoint him but I don't feel that's where I need to be."

Kole nodded along "be honest with him, upfront and don't beat around the bush. Tell him how you are really feeling and don't hold anything back. Your dad only wants you to be successful in life. He loves you Morgan."

I smiled "thanks Kole. What about you?"

He grinned about me "what about me?"

I shook my head "are you happily successful in life?"

He exhaled deeply "I'm successful and that's all that matters right now."

I turned to face him "you should be happy as well, what is something that will make you happy?"

He leaned back in his chair "what would make me happy is for the waitress to hurry up with my lunch. I'm easy to please."

I rolled my eyes "for some reason I don't quite believe you."
