Chapter 80
Triffany arrived at Chixobest company to see the angry face of the director. "It's over an hour Triffany." He folded his arm with a furrowed brow.
"I'm sorry." Triffany apologized.
"And don't tell me you ran into traffic." Director Kammy told her, knowing that workers use that always as an excuse.
"I did not," Triffany said honestly
Elvis Daniels came out. "We better hurry now." He told them and director Kammy looked at Triffany one last time before walking away.
Tommy went over to her. "That was a nice escape." She smiled as he hands her some file.
"Let's go." Elvis Daniels told them and they all enter the big van and drove off.
They approached Glammaly estates as Triffany was shocked at the entrance. She looked up at director Kammy. "Why are we here?" She asked him.
"What?" Director Kammy looked at her like she had just asked a stupid question.
"We are at Glammaly estate." Triffany pointed at the entrance.
"Yes...so?" Director Kammy asked her. She realized this was the company and blinks as her head was in a mess right now.
Elvis Daniel's looked at her. "Did you forget you're coming to represent our company?" He asked her.
“No not that. It’s just that…” She was speechless as she looked at them. “You know..”
“Put your speech together, because am aware you’re surprised you will be working at such a big company. Let’s go.” He told her and matched forward with director Kammy.
That’s just not it. This was Glammaly estate, her husband’s company and a place she said she will never work at, she bites down her lips, right now she wants to run away.
“Let’s go in, Triffany,” Tommy told her, pulling her out of her thought.
“Oh yes.” She exhaled softly and followed Tommy in.
Felicity called Carlos. “Hello, sir.”
“Yes.”
“Mr Elvis Daniels and his crew are here.” She told him.
“Okay let them in,” Carlos ordered her with a smile on his lips, just the thought of seeing the shock on Tiffany's face amuse him.
“Okay, sir.” Felicity put down the phone. “You can go in.” She opened the door and let them into his office before leaving to her desk.
“Welcome.” Carlos stretched his hand and shake Elvis Daniels and director Kammy. “Have a seat.” He pointed at the chair as they all sat down as Triffany stare at Carlos with a wide eye.
“Here are the people that will be representing us.” Elvis Daniels told him. “This is Tommy Maxwell.” Carlos looked at Tommy with that so-this-is-the-asshole look. “And, Triffany Joey.”
Carlos looked at Triffany with a frown. “Triffany Joey?” He stretched the last word and scoffs.
"Yes. The girl we choose to work with Tommy." Carlos looked at Tommy and then at the both of them together.
He was no so happy but still put on his business-like expression. "Okay." He turned to Elvis Daniels. "Do you mind if I test the both of them separately"
Elvis Daniels looked at Tommy and Triffany. "I don't mind, you're free."
"Okay." Carlos crossed his left and looked directly at Triffany, she could see the coldness in his eyes and she sneers. "You will go first." Triffany raised her brow as Tommy and the rest looked at her.
"Do you mind giving us a little moment before that?" Director Kammy asked him.
Carlos did not take his eyes away from Triffany as he spoke. "Fifteen minutes. " He walked out of the office.
Triffany turned to director Kammy. "Is this some kind of interview? Would he be asking these questions?"
"It's more like an oral explanation of any given topic he throws to you." Elvis Daniel's told her.
"Am not sure I can do that. I didn't prepare anything." Triff told them. She knew Carlos was going to get back but she never knew it was this way, would he make her lose her job again.
"Why do I feel like he's only picking on Triffany?" Tommy who had noticed the way Carlos stare at Triffany asked and Triffany looked at him alarmed. "Did I see wrongly?" He asked.
"Why should he pick on me," Triffany said with haste. "When we barely know each..." she paused. "When we don't know each other."
"Triffany, this is for our company, so give it your best." Elvis Daniels told her.
Triffany exhaled softly. "Okay." In her heart, she was praying that Carlos has mercy on her and recall all this.
Kammy and Elvis Daniel's left the office and Tommy walked close to Triffany who was standing still and not moving. "We should go with them before we get lost."
Triffany looked up at Tommy. "Am scared." She told him.
Tommy places his hand on her shoulder. "You will be alright." He flashed her a smile. "This is just a project that will be done in two weeks and we can return to our company."
"Okay. Let's go then." Triffany told him as they followed Elvis Daniels.
Carlos watched her and Tommy come into the office he sat with some other staffs. "Triffany is the editor that will help Tommy in publishing the work right?" He asked Elvis Daniels.
"Yes."
Carlos smirk and hands her a manuscript as Triffany looked at his daring face. "To test your ability, I want you to line edit that works shit. In an hour am hoping to hear more of your ideas to it."
He told his hands as Triffany glance through it. Never will she let this man make her lose her job. She knew he was good at this part since he helped her a lot in the file Tommy sent.
Why he was doing this, she knew not, but one thing she knew was she would never give him the satisfaction he wants.
She wishes she could punch off that smirk he has on his lips. She took few minutes going through the manuscript with eyes watching at her.
