Mia Hertz,the daughter of Shang Hertz(a retired bank officer and her father) and Rui Hertz (her deceased mother and a housewife) was forced to take a part-time job at the James Corporation because of her poverty. James Corporation was headed by Ren James (a handsome and eligible bachelor who is the father of a three year old son from his first marriage). In normal circumstances these two were the most unlikely people to meet. With Mia hating attention and James being a part of it (because of his superbly Awesome Looks). However what would happen when one day Kyle (James' son) happen to get injured and Mia helps him out ;with James finding that his son,who is usually apathetic to everyone and practically hates every human being, actually likes someone. What will he do when he finds out that this person is the one who he hates dearly? What will Mia do when Kyle won't let go of her but her boss would do the exact opposite? And how would they feel when they found out they had actually met each other before? And what would Mia do when the CEO never look in her way? Would she instead go out with one of the CEO's friends or cousins ? Read to find out!!! Not your usual CEO hunting(?) girl.Has a lot of humor and the characters won't be getting together any time soon.Extra hint: The CEO despises Mia and vice-versa.
Mia Hertz ,a young girl with a kinda depressed life(which is the understatement of a lifetime) with a supposedly bright future (which she alone believes) returned home at 9 pm.
You must be wondering why she was so late. It was not because of school stuff since her school ends at 5. She was actually working part-time as she had to support herself and her retired old father. She was depressed as it was the third job she lost in this month....
She dreadfully and much hesitantly entered her home. After her dear mother's death she no longer liked her home for it was too lonely. Her mother, when alive,used to greet her every day and animatedly used to listen to her speak about her day in school. But now nobody greeted her. Her father was sick and suffered PTSD so she often had to shake him out of his trances when she came back or he won't even notice her. With a heavy heart she went to her father's room and smiled at him while saying," Papa wake up. I m back. What would you like to eat? I'll cook anything you want. Don't hesitate."
In return her father said," Cook anything you want my dear. Don't mind this old man's preferences. Just cook whatever fits our budget and if anything is left then go shopping for clothes with it.
Mia in turn counteracted by saying," Papa don't worry, tell me what you would like to eat. No matter the price. I'll make it for you."
Though she said this ,she can't help but worry about their budget. They really don't have much money. But she knew that if their living circumstances were like this only then in a few months her Papa would be dead as they don't have enough for the treatment for his sickness and PTSD problem. So she wanted that if he dies he dies happy. This broke her heart as she could not save her father unless she got money. This was why she worked so hard per day, to save her father.And now as a last try she will interview for a job at The James Corp. in a last desperate attempt. Otherwise she would just give up and go through with it no matter how sad it sounds.
Tomorrow she would go to the James Corp. to get a job and perhaps avoid the CEO like he's the plague. She already had enough on her plate and she didn't want a CEO after her too. She wished to every god out there that the most eligible multibillionaire bachelor out there did not remember their past. She believes that he won't recognize her as she never showed him her face but she forgot to that this is not Cinderella [1] and that he had heard her voice. Well lets let her continue her wishful thinking [2].
[1] I think everyone remembers Cinderella and the fact that the prince did not recognize Cinderella by her face or voice even when he spent many hours with her and needed the shoe to find her. It means that at least our ML is logical, realistic and not oblivious like others.
[2]This is a phrase I took from Taylor Swift's song"Back to December". The line is 'maybe this is wishful thinking. Probably mindless dreaming
But if we loved again I swear I 'll love you right'. This gives all two hints. One is that the ML and FL or MC's past included them falling in love. Second that they both probably still have buried feelings which means there will be many quick sugary scenes once in a while.
