Chapter 2 Perfect opportunity

Mason's P.O.V

Mason woke up at 6 a.m and got ready for another busy day at work. On his way to work, He called Assistant Lee to order breakfast for him. Mason entered his office at 7:30 and started to go through the applications for a new secretary post. There was a sudden knock on the door and a magnetic voice replying "come in." Assistant Lee walked into the office with a cup of coffee and donuts.

"Ceo Cold here is the breakfast you asked for"

"You may leave"

Mason spreads the documents on the table and took his cup of coffee to have a sip when a picture of a woman entered his peripheral vision. He turned his head in shock and picked up her application. With an evil smirk on his face, he said " So this woman has the audacity to apply to be my secretary after all her verbal abuse, I can't wait to see the look on her face haha"

Mason immediately called his assistant and handed the file to him."Call this woman in I will personally interview her."

Assistant Lee's P.O.V

I've been working for Ceo Cold for the past 5 years and I must say yesterday was the first time I have ever heard someone talk to Boss Cold this way. That woman actually called our boss a vermin, Is she seeking death? I expected that lady to perish that very instant but to my surprise, the boss just left. I thought that would be the last of her, but when CEO cold gave me the file I never expected to see her image in it. This lady seriously had the courage to disrespect boss Cold and still apply for this job. She is suicidal, she just gave boss the perfect opportunity to slowly torture her to death. So I gave her a call and informed her of the interview tomorrow at noon. She sounded excited, but I'm still confused, why is she rejoicing when she just got her death call. Well anyway, there is no turning back for her, I hang up the phone and went back to Ceo Cold office to inform him that she will be here tomorrow at noon and went back to my desk.

Ava's P.O.V

I'm in the middle the best dream ever when my phone starts to ring, as usual, I stretch my hand towards the bedside table and grab my phone. When I connected the call I heard a male voice asking whether I was Miss Ava.

I replied with a questioning tone "indeed this is Ava but may I ask who are you"

" I am Assistant Lee and I work for Carter Ltd I called to inform you that you are required to be at Carter Ltd at noon tomorrow for an interview"

" Really, wow thanks a lot assistant Lee"

After he hanged up I immediately called Rissa and told her the good news.

Rissa's P.O.V

I'm in the middle of sketching a new design when my phone rings. I connected the call and was immediately greeted with good news. Ava has an interview with Carter Ltd tomorrow at noon. I'm very happy for her and I hope she gets the job. After all, Carter Ltd is an excellent company and has many benefits for employees. She invited me to dinner tomorrow night, so I accepted and hang up. In six months' time there will be a fashion competition and many designers will participate including me. This will give me more publicity as a young designer and boost my dads sales if I'm successful.

Mason's P.O.V

Its been a tiring day at work with meetings round the clock. I'm finally heading home when Nathan rings my phone asking to meet up at Royals Bar. I make a U-turn and drive to the location. On arrival, I spotted Nathan just entering the bar. We walked in together and as usual, all eyes are on us. We pretended to be clueless and took our seat on a table near the bar. I ordered some shots of strong liquor. Whilst Nathan sat there searching for his next prey.

Nathan's P.O.V

I caught sight of a silhouette seating near a table in the corner of the bar sipping on red wine. The image of this silhouette looked so alluring that it acted as a magnet, luring me towards her. Each step I took left me anxious causing my heart to beat like an African drum. When I was just a couple of steps away this mysterious woman turned facing me. I was instantly, Mesmerized by her rosy lips which looked exquisitely tantalizing with the stain of red wine. Just then I heard her ask

"Hi, Mr is there something on my face?"

"Oh No, I'm sorry for staring, I just saw you seating here alone so I decided to come keep you company"

"Well, I just came here to relax so no need"

"Well can I introduce myself?"

"okay"

"Well, I'm Nathan Xavier nice to meet you can I get your name"

"Maybe when we meet again I will let you know"

And that mysterious woman got up and left......

Mason P.O.V

I turned around to talk to Nathan when I realized He had disappeared. I scanned the bar area and saw him seating near the bar in the far corner staring at a woman who was leaving in a provocative way. I walked towards him and said

"Are you ever going to settle with one or are you really going to leave your entire life being a man hore"

Nathan stared at me blankly so I waved and left.
