TRAPPED | Trent Alexander Arnold

Chapter 7 - Real friends

KYLIE

I don't know when, or how, or why, I just felt A sick, wicked and mischievous smirk appearing on my lips. I don't know if it's because of the way Mr. Murray hyped me up or because of the priceless look on Alex's face.

He was surprised.

NO! Shocked! He was shook! Appalled! Astounded! Taken aback! His jaw was dropped and his eyes were wide open, He clearly didn't expect this to happen. Like at all! But I'll cut him a slack because I didn't expect it too.

Wait though.....

Why is he here?

I mean, his parents are quite rich and he's friends with a big shot footballer, so why did he apply for an internship at my company?

Hmm.... 🤔

"This is Alice Campbell. Emily hart. Jessica Nelson. Raquel Winston, and that's Alexander hook" said tony Murray as he pointed to each intern while saying their name. Alice and Emily and Raquel being the blondes, Jessica being the brunette and Alex being.....Alex.

"Nice to meet you all" I smiled at them, which they returned along with 'thank you's.

"I'll leave you with them" said tony, to which I just nodded in approval.

"So, I trust Mr. Murray has presented you all with your parcels?" I Asked.

"Yes" they all said and tightened their grips on the small cream colored bags.

"Good. Everything you need to know about scentsational are in those parcels. Roles, projects, duties, contact informations and many more. It's like your personal little mentor. They also contain your official identification cards and company access cards. The company access card is particularly our security system here at scentsational, you need the card to scan every single door open"

"Bathrooms too?" Jessica Asked with her think southern accent.

"Yes dear, Every single door. No exceptions. Are we clear?"

They nodded.

"Very well, now just follow me to the conference room so we can cover everything up" I ordered and immediately led them to the plain white room with a huge long black wooden table in the middle and 14 office chairs surrounding it. The room actually isn't completely done yet but we can make use of it just for a few minutes.

They all took a seat as per my orders, Alex's eyes never leaving mine. I don't know why but whenever I look at him I feel like smirking. I should be upset but I'm 100% not. At all. I find all this amusing for some weird reason.

"I'm sure Mr. Murray has explained everything to you already, but just to be clear, I will add some more to it" I spoke "internships might not look like such a big deal to people, but here it's actually the opposite. Your job is a huge one, be proud of it and boast about it to your hearts content. As an intern at scentsational, you're expected to bring your very best so as to prove you're worthy of your position. Your hard work and determination is all I care about, not how cute you look in pigtails or how much weight you can lift at the gym. in short, I will not tolerate late coming, except for a very valid and strong reason. I will not tolerate laziness, I will not tolerate unnecessary drama, not even for a second. While you're here, your work should be the only thing running through your mind"
