Chapter 31- His Warning
“ Mr. Smith, is there a problem? It's Monday and you're frowning, is there a reason why? Isn't it too early to wear a frown?" She asked as soon as I entered her office. I knew she didn't give a shit about whether I smiled or not, she was just trying to mock me.
" Oh, it's nothing, anyone would have this look on their face when they enter into a witch's coven, it's normal,” I said as I looked her straight in the eyes, her eyes were sharp as she looked at me with spite.
“ You know you look quite beautiful today Miss Miller, you have such an expensive and classy taste, it's just so unfortunate you act and sound so cheap,”
" Excuse me Mr. Miller, what gives you the right to talk to me like that? I am your boss, where is this coming from?” she snapped as she stood up from her chair glaring at me.
So now she's surprised I've decided not to keep quiet anymore before she walks all over my head.
" Oh, I almost forgot, I thought you were a child, my bad," I said as I looked at her then turned my eyes to my tab.
“ Would you like me to read out your schedule or better still just forward it to you?" I asked but didn't get any response and I didn't bother looking, she wasn't worth my time.
“ Mr. Smith, look at me,” she commanded and my eyes lazily turned to hers.
" Is there a problem?” I asked with a raised brow.
" Let's get something straight, I am your…”
" My boss?”....I asked, stopping whatever she wanted to say, I was fully aware of what she was going to say.
“ So I shouldn't talk to you with disrespect, is that what you were going to say?" I asked and she just watched me unable to say anything.
“ I should talk to you with respect when all you've been doing is disrespecting me and treating me like a child. What? You think after telling your grandpa you're the best boss, which you're not, you're far from being the best boss. You think after telling him that, you could treat me however you want? Let me tell you something in case you're forgetting, you get treated how you treat others, so know that from today, if you treat me badly, that's the same treatment you're going to get, I'm not bluffing, I'm your assistant, there are ways I can deal with you if I want to, so I'm sure you know what to do with this information,” I said.
By now she had already sat back down as she watched me like I was her mortal enemy or something.
“ You're threatening me Mr. Smith, is that it? You want me to do what? Shake or fear you, I'm going to make something clear, I'm the boss and I'm going to treat you however the fuck I like and neither you or anyone can do anything about it," she said with so much confidence and I couldn't help but smirk, she was playing with fire and she would get burnt terribly.
“ Well, since you insist Miss Miller, so be it," I said as I started reading out her schedule to her and she just watched me with a victorious smirk. She doesn't even know what I have planned out for her.
I returned back to my office to get busy with work. I knew why I gave her that warning, we were going to Paris tomorrow and I wouldn't tolerate any embarrassment from her. It's just so nothing comes as a surprise to her.
Mr. Miller never treated me the way she was doing, even when I just started to work with him and used to make so many mistakes, he was so patient and would only scold me to get better.
But this witch finds every opportunity to insult me even if it were her fault. I'm not some puppet for her to toy with however she likes.
She should know that.
It was time for us to attend our first meeting for today which would be held in the meeting room. I had already made sure the room was in order this morning when I came to the office.
I sent the witch a reminder message about the meeting and then thirty minutes later I stood up to go to her office.
I knocked on her door but didn't get any response which wasn't new. Later she'll tell me that she isn't a witch and doesn't behave like a child.
I didn't bother staying there for long, I returned to my office, I have a feeling she already knew why I was there in the first place.
Some minutes later her office door opened and I knew it was time for us to go for the meeting. I took my things and walked out of my office and without sparing me a second glance she walked to the elevator.
God, if only she ignores me like this and doesn't stress my life it would have been a lot better.
The elevator ride was quiet, not like I wanted to hear her voice.
When we reached the floor for the meeting, the door opened and we walked out as I walked beside her and then when we reached the meeting room I opened the door and she walked in and then I walked in too.
The product development team were already waiting and immediately they saw her, they stood up in respect.
“ Take your seats please,” She said and they all sat down.
She put her bag on the table as she sat down and then I turned around to take my seat but just when I was about to sit, she stopped me.
“ Mr. Smith, can you please come stand beside me.” She said and I scrunch my brows in confusion wondering what she was up to again but nevertheless I obeyed.
I went to stand beside her and she looked up at me with a smile before she turned to the team.
“ Go ahead, what exciting news do you have to share?”
