"What are you doing here?" With his phone in his hand, Ace pointed at George.
George looked at him like he was asking a stupid question. Nevertheless, she chose to answer politely.
'Patience. Patience.' She chanted in her mind.
"I was told by Mr. Alexandre Black to stay here while I work for you."
"Seriously? What did you offer to my grandpa that he gave you this job? He knows that I don't like your kind to be this close to me."
She tried to smile but it came as a frown.
'Well, fuck patience!
"My kind?" She glared at him. "You, I've been holding my tongue all day long for the sake of your grandfather but don't push another button or I might just pull out all your intestines and cook them for the stray dogs to eat."
'For all I know, I may have more money in my bank than this arrogant brat.'
He cleared his throat and crossed his arms, unconsciously protecting his internal organs.
He then asked, "Who are you, and why are you doing this?"
George smiled a little. 'So you can think. Good.'
"I'm George. We've met earlier, right? I'm here because I want to rest. Where's my room?" George feigned innocence. Of course, she didn't want to blow up her covers.
She looked around the place and went to open up doors that she can see. She opened a library, gym, bathroom, and theater before she got what she was looking for. She gathered her suitcases and closed the door but Ace beat her to it.
"Because clearly, you are not doing your job properly as my secretary. You can't even be polite to me, your boss. And now you're following me here in my place. So tell me, who are you and what do you need?"
George looked at him squarely. "Right now, I'm off work so, technically, you're not my boss. Second, it just happened that I'm working for you. Have you heard of the word coincidence? That's what it is called. And sorry to disappoint but I don't do polite. I'm just here to do my job."
Ace scoffed. "Exactly! You are my assistant. You should do what you're told. I think you threatened pops to hire you to work for me and make me fall in love with you like some fairytale shit." Ace smiled mischievously.
'She likes me, I'm sure. Who wouldn't? With a face like this plus money and brain, I'm sure she wants this work to get closer to me.'
George looked at him and scowled. "You." She motioned to her face. "You're not my type so fuck off."
Ace's smile faded. 'Ouch.'
George slowly walked towards him as she looked at him intently. Ace's eyes widened realizing what she was up to.
'I knew it, she's just bluffing.'
When they are just a foot apart, Ace slowly smiled, the one that always makes girls swoon. George continued looking at him intently. Her arms reached out with Ace anticipating her touch. But it didn't come.
Instead, she reached out behind him to open the door. "Get out, Black." She said and slightly pushed him out the door and closed it to his face.
"W-What?" She heard his muffled voice along with a series of curses.
When he was out the door, she exhaled loudly and picked up her luggage to unpack. The room is relatively small with a nice bathroom but it's ideal for her. She's too lazy to walk around a huge space.
