All I Ever Do

Chapter 5

I walked inside the high rise building surrounded by glass making it look more lavish on the inside. A lot of people are going in since it's morning.

Miller Empire.

I don't know why but the name has been nagging me since last night. It's quite familiar to me. Maybe because I've heard it when I was working or just because of my Dad. I walked to the front desk and saw a girl opposite me. She is dressed in a polished red uniform as she talks on the telephone and hasn't noticed me yet.

"...Yes sir, I'll check the system." she hang-up and looked at me.

"How may I help you?" she asked nicely at me and I can't help but feel relieved that she is being nice o me.

"I'm Selina Clarke and I have a scheduled interview now." I smiled at her and she immediately checked on her screen. She nod when she seemed to confirm what I've said

"Yes it's here, um, Ms. Selina Clarke, 8:30 A.M scheduled for a job interview. Go to your right and turn left, you will find the elevator. HR's office is on the 15th floor. Goodluck Ms. Clarke!" she smiled sweetly at me and I can't help but also smile at her. Her bubbliness is contagious.

I walked to the direction she directed me at and as I turn a corner I bumped into a wall, well more like a hard someone, and before I lost my balance the person grabbed my arm to steady me.

"Jesus! Are you alright?" a man asked me.

He has round, chestnut eyes framed with long lashes, prominent high cheekbones, and neatly combed coffee brown hair. He is tall and the athletic body is evident in the royal blue suit he wore. His grip on me is tight while the other hand wound up on my waist to prevent me from falling. His face is a mixture of surprise and worry. I can feel my cheeks heat up with our proximity so I immediately stepped away from him and fixed my blouse.

"Y-yeah. I'm sorry for bumping into you I should've walked away from the corner." I said embarrassed in front of him.

"No, it's fine. You be careful next time." He looked at me in amusement and walk away.

Wow, that's one way to embarrass yourself on the day of your job interview. He looks like he has a high position in this company. Omygosh what if he is the President?! I mentally banged my head on my imaginary wall. That is so stupid of me. I rode the elevator with a lot of employees cramming to get inside. On the 15th floor, I get off and looked for HR's office.

An employee directed me and I went inside the office. A middle-aged woman is wearing a formal red dress partnered with a white coat. She has her blonde hair in an elegant up-do bun and sitting straight in her chair.

"Ms. Clarke It's nice to meet you please have a seat." She smiled at me and directed me to a seat in front of her.

The interview went well and I'm glad that she has heard of my name being an Interior Designer. She said that my works were well known and she is glad that she finally met me. I'm surprised that she knew me as Selina Clarke the Interior Designer in Australia and not Selina Clarke the daughter of the CEO of Clarke Real Estate Incorporation. She immediately said that I can start working as early as tomorrow if I want to and who am I to turn down the offer.
