CHAPTER 5

she kept thinking if he was of a good character she would have fallen for him but she could not take her eyes off him, whenever she is all alone with him she gets excited and feels somewhat kind of good.

"Answer me," he said with a frown

"I have answered your question, sir, what else do you want from me? because right now I don't know if you are just being wicked to me or just trying to be annoying and right now you are pretty much nailing both" she said

"I haven't been this nice to anyone in my whole life like I have been to you Miss Carpenter and..." just then he knew things have gotten way too far so he turned and shook his head and walked away

"complete your statement," she said but she didn't get a response

"complete your statement sir" she repeated again but this time with a higher tone

"I have a flight to catch am going on a business trip for the whole week and your offer still stands if you are ready we could go now or not, your choice" Immediately he finished talking he turned on his heels sharply and headed for the door while Sam was there having second thoughts about the whole thing and she has spent the whole week looking for jobs but didn't get any and now one came to her house to find her then she thought about it if it wasn't stupidity then she doesn't know

"I will work for you," she said out of the blue then Mathew stopped on hearing what she said then turned very fast and asked

"what?"

"I will be your personal secretary Mr. Coleman" the way she said his name was very exciting to him and she could see Mathew in a very different way, at that moment she knew he had the nicest smile, it was from ear to ear

"so would you get ready while I wait for you?" he said heading towards the chair to seat down

"umm...what about your flight?"

"oh please you know I take private jets, and they could wait for some minutes right?" he asked smiling "it's a rich asshole's conference meeting so could you pack light you would do the shopping over there, just get ready quickly," he said and this time looking at her in the eye and she smiled back. She asked him if there was anything he wanted he said no and smiled.

she went upstairs and rushed and took her bath and all she could think of was Mathew Coleman's lips against hers and the thought of it was a really good one then she got out of the shower then brought out her travel bag and packed all the clothes Mira bought for her on her first day of work just then she realized she hasn't packed all her files from the office she packed away from. she got dressed, combed her hair and rearranged her room then went downstairs.

Mathew Coleman sat there on the couch looking so fulfilled, he felt like he has never fulfilled this much in his life even with all the business contract he has accomplished, and having a company on his own didn't feel this good as he is feeling right now, just then he saw her walking down the stairs and looking all sophisticated and sexy as hell he couldn't take his eyes off her, it was like he wasn't looking at the woman he knew, she looked so different and the way she walked down the stairs was magical to him in every way, the way she flipped her hair while walking down the stairs, the way she Carries herself it was so magical.

"am ready sir if you are," she said dragging her luggage beside her and added a smile

"okay as you know, this trip will take a whole week and we will be doing a lot of visiting and meeting new people and all, I hope you would be able to understand and follow orders?" he asked as he stood up and walk past her and headed straight for the door "and learn to keep up the pace Carpenter!" he added as he entered his car an orange Tesla with a smirk on his face and he opened the boot for her to drop her things.

They got to the airport and they got on the plane when she realized she is terrified of planes

"Oh Jesus, oh my lord," she said as she walked over to her seat

"don't tell me you are scared of planes Carpenter, that's not cool," he said laughing as he watched her fasten her seatbelt before the plane even took off but she looked cute in the process of all that and Mathew smiled sheepishly which Sam saw but she didn't point that out she just wanted to get the hell out of the plane as soon as possible.

"can't believe you are scared of the plane wow! I would have doubted that strongly you just seemed to fisty not to like planes but still, people aren't always the same person that you know, you are always the fun type I mean I do you think I am always wanting to keep you around huh? don't spoil that for me Carpenter!" he said and laughed

"that's because of your ego Mr. Coleman, you just don't like people telling you no"

"Sorry?" he asked confused then Sam smiled "oh, I see what you are talking about now, you can call it whatever you like but I don't see it like that," he said sincerely

"So how do you see it like sir, if I may ask?" she asked seating upright and was very interested in what he has to say to defend himself

"I am a businessman and when I see something good and I like it I see no reason for me not to take it with everything I have, I cherish good things a lot so when I see one I don't let go, what I meant to say is that it is a business strategy it might be of a shocker to you but I am a keeper" as soon as he said it Sam laughed in disbelief "yep you might not believe me but it's true I am," he said and suddenly out of the blue, he asked

"do you like wine?"

"I can drink one I just don't fancy it too much or the idea of drinking wine without no occasion doesn't sound right to me," she said

"ouch! that hurts"

"what hurts," she asked confused

"The fact that I and you are here and we are some feet off the ground" he paused and looked outside the blinds "wow, that's really high, well what I was trying to bring out was that two of us here going for a business trip together and not had any major arguments, is a happy thing and a cause to celebrate don't you think so?" he asked as the waiter dropped the bottle of wine in front of him he then took the wine and went over to her and jingled the bottle in her face then she smiled

"can't we get drunk taking this whole bottle?" she asked "you know we have work to do early in the morning tomorrow and I wouldn't want to make a mistake on my first day being your secretary" she added this time she burst into laughter after seeing the look on his face he was looking cute and at the same time he looked mad well, extremely mad "hahaha, oh my God you should have seen your face right now it was really priceless" she continued laughing then she looked up at him to get more of that funny look then she saw him really angry and he was starring at her intensely then the smile wiped off her face "hehe, I didn't mean all I said just now please don't hold it up on me"

"you know you could just say you won't take the wine with me and I would have totally agreed with you," he said opening the wine and poured it into a glass cup, and gulped it all down at once

"ish! that's a lot," Sam said then looked away

"What is a lot? is it me drinking or me being miserable?" he asked gulping down another cup again and then sighed very heavily then Sam knew there was something wrong with her boss

"Is everything alright sir?" she said standing up to the seat next to him and sat down as she watched him gulp down another glass of wine then she thought 'is this how it looks to see a whole, Mathew Coleman miserable' she wanted to make fun of him really but deep down she felt sad and she had no reasonable explanation why so she decided to ask again "Is everything alright sir" then he was about to gulp down another glass of wine when she snatched it from him and in the process of her snatching it away from him it poured all over her "ha, oh God! sir! please stop being like this it's no fun" then he turned his head and looked at her

"so am no fun, really? what can I ever do to make you stay with me for life Samantha Carpenter?" he said then stared at her waiting for a reply

"huh? me?" she asked shocked

"I really like you, Samantha, me gustas mucho Sam," he said and he collapsed on her shoulder
