Chapter 5 Work o clock

Amelia Clark

I stopped in my tracks in the middle of the elegant room as I heard what the maid told me over the call.

"Thank you, Dorin. If anything comes up then inform me".

I hung up the call and threw the phone on my couch immediately suddenly getting all furious.

I felt the urge to throw something against the fireplace, the irresistible desire to yank something off but I held myself in check.

Gosh!! How dare Drew? I need to chill out right now. I can't just get angry because of this piece of information.

I went outside and went to the swimming pool where I met my best friends who were as famous as I was there.

"Here comes the queen!!". They exclaimed as I walked over to them.

My name is Amelia Clark, the only child of my parents and I'm classified as ultimately beautiful, classy, popular, and wealthy due to my parents's fortune.

But I hate it when anyone tries to take my place like my so-called step-sister, Ashley.

She's the result of the affair that my Dad had one night but whatever, she didn't get any of his wealth since she's illegitimate.

"Hey. You okay? Come join us".

"Drew cheated on me". I blurted out sitting on the tiles and dipping my legs in the pool.

"Seriously? Amelia, why are you getting so worked up? You kissed his best friend, Dan at the party last week". Bee said and Rose chuckled.

"I only did that to get Ashley jealous and ruin her relationship because she doesn't deserve to be happy with her".

Bee drank from her cocktail. "Why do you hate her anyways? I like her".

"She's so annoying and dumb, I was to be the only child but then she came along like the mistake she is".

"Chill, Amelia, take a deep breath". Rose soothed me.

"As I said, Drew cheated on me and took another girl to his main mansion".

"How do you know that?".

"I paid off one of his maids who work there and she told me everything".

"Wait. So Drew took a girl to his place and he has never even taken you there".

I clenched my fists. "I'm so furious about it and she even got to meet his daughter".

"But why are you so hell-bent on meeting his daughter? I thought you said that he didn't want you to meet her?".

"Bee, if I get introduced to Kim and she likes me then who knows if Drew might propose to me?". I told them.

"You make a good point but I don't think Drew is gonna take you to go meet her".

"Don't you think I know that?". I snapped at Bee.

"So Lauren, who's the bitchy girl that Drew met with?".

I shrugged. "I don't know, for now, the maid didn't tell me who she was".

"Well, I guess you should find out so we can go give her a piece of our mind". Rose suggested

"You are right". I smirked. "We should pay a visit to that fucking bitch, no one dares to compete with me for Drew".

Emily

"Ash!!". I yelled pushing her off the bed.

She groaned. "Can't I get to sleep again?".

"You've had enough sleep, Ash. It's 8:00 am, and on a Monday morning, you got work to do, remember?".

She hurriedly stood up. "Oh shit!! Fuck!! I had forgotten already".

"Well, you better get your lazy ass up and go get your bath, girl".

She looked at me. "Where are you going all dressed up like this?".

"To work, I have an interview".

"You look hot".

"And you need to bathe". I reminded her.

"Yeah, you are right. I better go early if I don't wanna get fired".

I stopped her. "You did remember to take those pills on Saturday? Right?".

"Oh My Gosh!!". She tapped her forehead frustratingly. "I forgot?".

"What?". I shrieked. "How could you forget to do that?".

She chuckled lightly. "Stop freaking out, Emily. I took them".

"Right". I breathed out a sigh of relief. "You better not be lying right now".

"I'm not but think about it, Emily. If I have a child, he might be cute like me".

"And think about it, Ash. If you have a child then you got no home because I don't want any baby crawling around me at all".

"Good luck with your job interview". She flopped back on the bed.

I crossed my arms. "Don't tell me you want to go back to sleep".

"Don't think you are running late?".

I rolled my eyes at her and grabbed all the things I needed walking out the room door.

In seconds, I had made my way to where my car was parked but stopped. Maybe I shouldn't take it along, they might think I'm comfortable and don't need the job.

.

Minutes later

"Just here". I told the driver as he stopped his cab at the spot.

I shoved the money in his hands. "Thank you".

I came out of the cab and headed straight to the building when a Mercedes just drove past me and splashed water on me.

I frowned immediately and stopped to go face the moron that did this. He's going to have to wash these clothes for me or else.

The car stopped and the driver came out revealing that proud Drew's friend. The guy whose name was Dave.

"Hey moron". I called after him. "Look at what you did".

He stopped facing me. "What did you just call me?".

"Don't you have eyes? Huh? Couldn't you have driven well?".

He crossed his arms. "Why do you always like causing trouble, miss? First, it was at the club then here?".

"It's not my fault that imbeciles always have to show up wherever I am". I retorted.

"I need to go to work and you are delaying me, Miss".

I let out a scoff. "Not an apology?".

"Why should I apologize? You were in my way".

"You better apologize or else you are going to be missing a bone in a minute now".

Ashley

"Thank you for dining here, we hope you were satisfied with your meal". I said to the customer and went directly back.

"Hey, Ashley".

I smiled thinly. "Lindsey".

"You look stressed out and we are still in the morning".

"I'm glad you noticed". I said sarcastically loosening the apron I wore.

"Woah, woah. What are you doing? Your shift isn't over yet".

"I'm just so tired, Lindsey". I whined.

"Table 12 needs your attention, missy".

I huffed angrily and walked back to the main restaurant straight to table 12.

"Good morning, can I please take you... ". I trailed off seeing him.

He grinned at me. "Good morning to you too, Ashley".

"Drew?". I shrieked. "What are you doing here?".

"I missed you".

"What?".

He chuckled. "It's a restaurant and I am here to eat".

"How am I not sure that you didn't follow me here?".

"You have no proof".

"Oh shut up".

"I say you look different from two days ago when you were with me". He said winking at me.

I crossed my arms. "Drew Renolds, what we had two nights ago was a mistake".

"A hot mistake, right?".

I held my pen to the writing pad. "What would you like to have?".

"You?".

I frowned slightly. "Be serious, Drew. I'm working here".

"I love your blue eyes".

"I will walk away".

He chuckled again. "How about we go talk somewhere? I need to have some alone time with you, Brianna".

"Sorry, but I'm busy with that". I rolled my eyes at him and made to walk away when he stopped me again.

I groaned facing him. "What now?".

"Well I figured out that you were going to reject me so do you remember that you had forgotten something at my place?".

"Huh?".

I gasped as he brought out purple panties swinging them around on his fingers.

"Drew put that down". I hissed. "What are you doing?".

He smirked. "Now can I have some alone time with you?".
