ZARYA'S POV
When the sun rose, Hali was not beside me. Colden was the one who would bring me to the office.
"Bring this to the CEO office." Bram gave me a folder. "It's confidential."
"I'll take care of it, Sir." I turned around and was about to leave Bram when he spoke. "Don't speak too much. He'll be irritated."
I nodded my head slightly. Bram was not a tough man. If he wanted me to scold by his father, he would not warn me. Day by day with him, I slowly knew him. He was not the one who was the content of their description of him.
I headed to the CEO office. I was looking side by side, perhaps, I could get something from observing the place. There was no evidence that would take them down. The employees were just working just like normal people.
"Greeting, Sir. Sir Bram's envelope." I placed it on his table. He slowly looked up at me. He is Brockton Jenkins, the father of Bram, the most dangerous Mafia Boss according to the rumors. He gazed at me from feet to face. "Who are you?"
"I am Zarry Hamilton, Sir Bram's secretary."
He examined my body figure. I was lucky when I did not pass on his taste. Perhaps I was a small woman. Most of the men liked Ms. Universe's beauty and height plus my boobs were not that attractive. I had well-formed breasts, but it was not that big. Possibly, the reason why Bram did not like me, too, like a woman. However, Caspian found me attractive. The last time when he was at Bram's office, he was requesting for Bram to take me to bed. It was a good thing, Bram needed me, therefore, he did not want me to be gone or disrespected by others.
During my weeks of staying, I learned the files and all transactions on his computer. He went to the Black Market every Wednesday which was tomorrow. Nonetheless, he had scheduled for tomorrow. He told me this was more important than everything, so he would cancel the black market visit. He also refused the negotiation at the Land of Pieces.
"Tell Bram to order a woman, probably five women."
"Got it, Sir." My stand was like a royal, like Matilda. Speaking of Matilda, I did not see her since I left the Elemental Kingdom. I forgot to ask her Hali. Maybe when I got back to the kingdom.
I left the room and immediately walked, hurrying back to Bram's office. I went inside the elevator. On the fifth floor, it opened, and someone had tapped the button from outside. My knee trembled in shock when I saw the smirk of Caspian.
Of all people, why him?
I gasped for air as he walked inside the elevator. We were the only people in it therefore I had no chance to run or else he assaulted me.
"The secretary." Caspian's voice did not content me even a second. It felt like he would do something terrible.
"Good afternoon, Sir." I managed to stand straightly and showed him my respect even though my chest was pounding so recklessly. Hali trained me not to show to the enemy the fear, but at this moment, I wanted to call him just like when I was at the condo.
"How's your brother?" It seemed casual, deep inside, there was something playing in his mind.
I grabbed air and blew it out. "He went to the other city. His job is there."
"So… you are alone in your house?"
I managed to hide the dread that was scattered around me. It should not reflect on my face. I needed to stand brave. I must remember what Hali taught me.
"Yes, Sir."
"Well, Virgin Secretary. You didn't call me. Didn't you find me attractive?" He moved a little. I forced myself to not walk away. The awkwardness was in my chest. I grabbed as deep air as I could and gazed at him directly.
"I found you attractive, Sir, but I don't want to fuck the man that I didn't love. My mother once said… give yourself to the man you love, not to anyone you want."
"Your mother is in the century age." The smirk crept on his lips. He left a little distance from our bodies. The reflection of me and him could be seen in the steel of the elevator. I looked straight and confident, but deep inside, I liked to grip my skirt tightly to get the courage to stand.
"Nevertheless, you need to go to my condo. I heard you demand money because of your father? I can give you double or triple since you're a virgin."
"I'll think about that."
I had a sigh of relief when the elevator opened. I hurried towards the office. Bram was sitting at the table and Trace was in front of him, settling on the chair.
"I told you, Caspian. Stop chasing my secretary. She'll get sick with your big cock when you fuck her! I need someone who'll help me here!" Bram shouted immediately when he saw Caspian was following me even when I sat on my swivel chair.
Trace scoffed in sarcasm. "Why hire a cute secretary? She takes the men's interest in a woman. What do you expect?" He played with the knight of the chess. I had not noticed that they were playing chess.
"Respect my secretary. That's all. She has work to do." Bram was so annoyed, it showed on his face.
"Woah! You haven't protected a secretary before. What's so special about her?" Caspian jumped to sit at my table. I managed not to show my irritation.
"She's smart and easily gets the work. I can't find another secretary like her." Bram did his steps on the chess.
"Don't be afraid, Zarry." Trace gave me a small smile. "Bram's first secretary died because of bleeding her female organ. It's me and Caspian who did that, Bram was silent and never get mad. Second, the same thing. Third, got killed because she escaped and一"
"Shut the fuck up!" Bram gritted his teeth.
I listened to every word they said. So that was what happened? Perhaps they did not want to be Bram's Secretary.
"All of those, Bram was silent. He didn't care, but look at him now, he cared for a small secretary." Trace laughed which was followed by Caspian.
Bram only shook his head. "Just like what I said. I need Zarry. My work is overload."
"No, that's fine." Their attention went to me. They were all shocked. I gave them a wide smile. "I need a penny for my father. Just triple the pay. I can play if you want?"
