Chapter 2 Mr Wilson

Ethan Wilson was much more handsome than what John, her boss, had described. No! He was completely different from what John had described. Maybe John had seen the wrong person.

Emily was expecting to see an old man in his Fifties, a with protruding bell and a short height.

He was anything but that. In his late tw, entries she assumed, He wasn't only a fine specimen but He was dressed elegantly in a designer-tailored black suit. He also had mesmerizing sky-blue eyes, but they had intensity in them. Just a look from him could intimidate someone. And just to confirm her assumption she was a little intimidated by him.

His hair was dark and shiny, it wasn't long or short and the angles of his face were sculpted finely. To put it simply he was stunning. She couldn't help but stare at him in awe, who wouldn't. Emily quickly regained her composure, she wouldn't be intimidated by this man!.

However, the look in his eyes immediately made Emily aware that he didn't like her a bit, she wasn't what he had expected to see. What was wrong with her? Was she not of his social status?.

Their eyes met for a second and Emily looked down immediately, his eyes looked almost lifeless. She failed, he intimidated her at last, who was she kidding.

"Olivia, what is this —-" Came a deep icy voice, which showed disapproval about Emily. He didn't even care that Emily was standing in front of him, he blatantly ignored her presence. How rude!.

"I'm sorry Mr Wilson" Oliva quickly broke in purposely, "We couldn't find anyone else in time as it is the weekend, Mr Harrison assured me that Miss Baker here is very competent," She said with confidence in her voice. Emily didn't know if she should be happy about the compliment or if was it?.

The silence that followed was filled with tension as Ethan Wilson Locked gazes with Emily, he then studied her from head to toe, which only added to Emily's already nervous state. The way he looked at her made her feel like a student who was being assessed.

Ethan looked at Emily who stood behind Olivia with a grim look on his face. He glanced at his watch and looked back up at Olivia Steele. "Better than nothing" he muttered.

"Do something about her clothes, and be ready in twenty minutes?" He said coldly before walking out of the door.

Olivia nodded and turned to Emily "Follow me" she said simply, before walking out of the room, Emily followed her trail quickly till they arrived at a suite in the hotel. Emily couldn't help but gasp in awe at the room, it was At least 5 times bigger than her apartment. Was this going to be removed from her paycheck?.

"Get changed in 2 minutes' ' Olivia said coldly as she handed Emily some clothes. "Do I really have to change, I can make do with---" Emily wanted to protest, but Olivia was quick to interrupt her. "Yes, right now you don't look..." Olivia's eyes trailed her from head to toe which made Emily self-aware. She opened her mouth to say something more but the woman walked away before she could. "Rude!" Emily muttered and shut the room door loudly.

Emily came out of the room dressed in a corporate-tailored Navy green suit, it was exactly her size, Thankfully. Olivia looked satisfied with what she picked out and nodded in satisfaction "Perfect."

Olivia glanced at her watch "We need to leave now" She said before walking out of the suite. Emily followed behind her quickly, this would be the last time she was ever taking this kind of job.

They arrived back at the conference room where four other men were now, Ethan Wilson still with a stoic look on his face. Emily wondered if he ever smiled or if his face was always like that. Well it was none of her business

Olivia gestured for her to sit close To Ethan. Ethan still didn't look at Emily even when she sat beside him, Emily wanted to scoff. Why was he acting all high and mighty?

The meeting started and Emily interpreted everything more than fluently without making a single mistake. Surprising Ethan. He was expecting her to make a flaw but Emily put in more effort than she usually did just proving him wrong. Olivia was glad Mr Harrison's recommendations were good, she didn't want to get in trouble with her boss.

After the meeting, They scheduled another meeting for the next day in the evening, before they shook hands with the investor and they left.

Ethan glanced at Emily once before walking out of the conference room too. Olivia followed Ethan out and Emily rolled her eyes at his back, she came out of the room to find her boss John pacing around. He looked much more nervous than she was herself.

He waltzed quickly toward her when she came out of the conference room. She could see sweat had formed on his head.

"How was it?" He probed, curiosity etched in his eyes.

"It was okay, I didn't make any mistakes thankfully," Emily said with her head up high. She wasn't an interpreter for nothing.

"Good job, Emily I owe you one" He thanked Emily with a smile on his face. he could finally breathe out in relief.

"You may become his personal interpreter. Do you know what that means for us!" John said excitedly, clapping both his hands together. This was a lifetime opportunity he had been waiting for his whole life, it was finally here.

"what! Johnson, this wasn't our agreement, this is just a one-time job. I'm not interested" She quickly cleared it up, so John wouldn't persuade her about something like this in the future.

"Emily, I'm sure you are just tired. you will fully understand what I mean after a night's rest don't worry" John chuckled, which made Emily roll her eyes at him...

Olivia Steele walked to where Emily and John stood talking and passed information from her boss across to them.

"Make sure Miss Baker is Available tomorrow. The chairman is satisfied with her work. She needs to be here till tomorrow so we can finalize the deal" She said, shocking both Emily and John.

.

"What!" John said in disbelief. He was overwhelmed with happiness when he heard Olivia's words, it was finally his big break.

"Of course, ma'am, thank you" He immediately agreed before Emily could say anything.

Olivia Steele nodded and walked away. Emily immediately glared at John "This wasn't the plan!" She immediately protested, she wanted to go home and sleep. Was that so hard to do?.

"I can't stay John, you need to find someone else, this isn't what we discussed" Emily protested further.

"Emily, I promise to pay you double for your services, please do it for the company. We really need this, if word gets out about this we may get more investors" John pleaded, trying to persuade Emily. He held both her hands in his and looked at her with so much pleading in his eyes.

Emily sighed deeply, her heart couldn't allow her to say no, that was just the type of person she was.

"Okay fine!. This is the last time I'm doing something like this, John, okay?" She agreed and John beamed.

"Thank you so much Emily" John held her hands pulling her into a hug.

Emily broke the hug immediately as she was aware that her boss was married.

"Just call me when you are done and e, and I will come pick you up" John left soon after and Emily was escorted back to the suite room.

She slumped on a king-sized bed, as she was exhausted from her flight and work. Soon she fell asleep but was awakened less than two hours later by a knock on the door.

She got up sluggishly and opened the door which revealed Olivia Steelee. What did she want now?.

"I'm sorry Miss Wilson but the meeting has been moved to Mr Wilson's house. We need to leave in 20 minutes"

"What!" Emily exclaimed in utter bewilderment. What was happening?.
