Third person's POV

"Leave! Get out!" Drake yelled pointing towards the door that was left wide open.

His secretary ran over to the office when she heard the thunderous voice of her boss yelling at someone to leave.

His secretary didn't see when the young lady walked past her so she was surprised to hear her boss yell, and for a moment she thought he was yelling for no reason.

For a moment she thought it was like one of those rumours about him, but when she walked in and saw the lady dressed in clothing far too revealing to the eyes she felt the urge to smack her forehead for thinking the rumours about her boss was true.

"Miss, please leave," His secretary tried to pull the lady's arms gently but the lady forcefully yanked her hand out of the secretary and turned to glare at the poor secretary who looked down at her feet and instinctively moved backwards.

"Did you really have to humiliate me in front of your employee, Drake?" She asked with a frown settling on her face as she glared at Drake who looked so calm like he hadn't been yelling only a couple of seconds ago.

"Gracie, get the security and have her moved out of my office if she doesn't leave in the next few seconds, " Drake told his secretary completely ignoring what the woman said.

The young lady's face turned red the minute she heard what Drake said. Although though she knew he was always mean to her, she never thought he would actually ever humiliate her this much and to say it was in the presence of someone the lady would consider to be some low class was what made her feel even more furious.

"Fine since that's how you want to make this seem, I'll leave but just so you know, I'll make sure you feel sorry about today for the rest of your life and mark my words, because that's a promise," she threatened and then turn around before storming out of the office, using her shoulder to bump into the frail looking Secretary, almost knocking the secretary off her feet.

"I'm sorry Mr Drake, I didn't see when she walked past me," the Secretary apologized quickly because she feared she might get yelled at by her boss and that was not something she was looking forward to.

She waited for a few more seconds and when he didn't say anything she knew it was her cue to just get out of the office because if she stayed there for one more second while he wasn't speaking to her, then she actually end up losing the job she got only a few months ago.

She hurried outside the office and closed the four behind her before going to seat on her seat that was at the front of her bosses office.

She heaved a huge sigh of relief after seating down.

"I thought I was going to pee myself right there," she fretted shaking her head at the thought of what just happened.

"Where's Mr Drake," Garry the tall lanky guy with round glasses asked, hitting his hand on the desk in front of the secretary.

"Ou!" She jumped feeling her heart in her throat as she thought it was Mr Drake.

"Garry stop scaring people like that! " she glared at the tall lanky guy who only grinned at her, "why? Did you do something bad?" he asked her his smile broadening.

"I think I might end up getting fired because of that Bi*tch," she complained and Garry didn't ask who because he had a clear idea about who she was talking about.

"Tell me to stay on alert then," Garry said back and tried to prepare himself before entering the office because their boss had never been in a good mood before and now that he met someone he despised, chances that he would be in a far more gruesome mood was very high.

Garry checked his tie and fixed his hair, before going over to knock slightly on the door and when he received no response, he opened the door slowly and took cautious steps into the office.

"Should I cancel the charity events also?" Garry asked because he knew Mr Drake is always never in a mood to meet with people, and  whenever he was in a human-induced foul mood he despised meeting anyone even more.

Garry referred to it as human-induced because he was naturally always in a foul mood, and rarely ever because  someone else puts him in such a mood.

"Set a meeting with the CEO of centre co," was his only words and then he waved his hands in the air signalling for Garry to leave.

And the tall lanky guy left quickly before the mood would change and also the temperature in the office.

Garry was surprised that he wasn't yelled at but he wouldn't dare to ask why that

is so he hurried out of the office before letting out the large breaths he had no idea he was actually holding while he was inside that office.

"What? Did you also get yelled at?" Gracie asked him the moment Garry closed the door.

"No, I think today is not a yelling day, phew!" Garry exclaimed and then left to go fix the meeting like he was instructed to.

Drake sat in his office trying to contain his anger and do his best not to let his eyes change colours as he squints them close tightly.

She sure has some fucking guts, threatening me after what she did, Drake thought himself.

If only I had frozen her fucking neck when I found out what she did, then she wouldn't have had the chance to even show up here and say all those stuff she said. Drake said to himself.

Drake felt like he was becoming way too lenient and everyone is starting to feel like they could walk all over him but he was going to set that straight and he was going to start by setting his secretary right back on track.

He walked out of his office with his hands in the pocket of his pants and stood in front of his secretary's desk who immediately got up from her seat the moment she saw him walk out of the door.

"Next time you'd say anything about me behind back, that would be your last day in this office," he warned before walking away leaving poor Gracie with a hammering heart inside her chest.

Drake despised being talked about and although no one dared to do that in his presence, they always did whenever they feel he was out of earshot, but he could still hear them as clearly as he would from 5 meters away as he would if he were only a couple of inches away from the person speaking.

No one but Drake knew about that fact and he kept it that way because he didn't need more rumours to start to travel around about him.

Drake was someone who always commands respect wherever he went, and he loved that about himself.

Although he doesn't really care about what people say behind his back, he despised the fact that they couldn't say it to his face.

"Such hypocritical behaviours," Mr Drake scoffed before the elevators doors closed shut.
