MEETING HER

LEO'S POV

On reaching the company,I stepped out of my car, entered the company, the employees and random people just kept on staring at me as usual making me wonder if am that handsome.

I was on my way to the elevator, in an hurry to get to the meeting room, before someone suddenly bumped into me. I was shocked but I had to hold her to stop her from falling.

Suddenly our eyes locked, "she's so beautiful," I thought, black long hair, mesmerizing blue eyes you will want to get lost in,her beautiful heart shaped pink lips,"how cute," I thought.

I felt goosebumps all over my body, which was weird cause I don't like getting too close with women apart from my mum and sis. Snapping out of it, I let her go, because it seems like she was lost in thought too.

"Watch where you are going next time, and stop bumping into everyone,"I said suddenly getting pissed at how I felt staring at her, before starting to leave.

"Asshole,"I heard her say.

Stopping in my track, "What did you say?" I asked

"Nothing"she replied before leaving me standing there.

I felt pissed at how she ignored me but I had to leave for my meeting ASAP.

After the meeting, which lasted for an hour,I headed for my office.

"Good morning sir," Mr Gray Lucas, my assistant greeted me

"Good morning Mr Gray,has the new secretary arrived?"I asked him

"Yes sir, she's in her office, I'll bring her to you" Mr Gray replied.

A SHE?"I asked looking surprised

"Yes sir, your dad recommended her" he said

That man,he never ceases to amaze me, he's retired but still plans my life for me. I didn't want any female secretary because they are incompetent and always trying to seduce me.

"Oh well, let's give it a try then and see how hard working she is" I said

" Bring her to my office,"I said before entering my office.

Seeing the door open,I couldn't believe my eyes. it was that same lady who bumped into me at the elevator.

"Beautiful, she even has a curvy shape,"I thought to myself.

She looked scared and surprised to see me,she should actually..haha

"Sir you sent for me,"she said..acting like we didn't meet earlier.

Ignoring her,she said"I am Sophia Leon and I am really sorry about what happened earlier,it was just an accident"

"An accident? You called me an asshole" I said looking pissed

"it was a slip of the tongue sir,and I am really really sorry" she said

"Get out of my office"I said to her before she left.

" Watch her closely,any mistake she makes,let me know immediately,"I said facing Mr Gray.

"Alright sir," he said before leaving.

She won't last long, I'm sure of it.

Finally shaking off the thought, I returned back to work.

SOPHIA'S POV

Getting out of his office,I breathe out the air I guess have been holding in since. He hates me,he hates me,I thought.

"I have to show him i am competent for this job,"I thought, sighing before going back to my office.
