(SIX MONTHS LATER)
Today Ayla had gotten an internship, it was better paying than her previous job. She walked in with the other new interns
The company was prestigious, and this is what she needed after her heartbreak. She needed a fresh start.
Her old workplace reminded her of Derrick so much but the income played the hugest role.
They were shown the ins and outs of the company, and places they were allowed to go to and didn't.
They were new and their privileges were very small.
A week had passed and Ayla was getting used to her job, her seniors were strict. They heard that the boss was ruthless and it seemed as if there was some sort of attraction to him.
Her second week was flying by, and it was Friday as they sat in a conference room, they were being briefed on what they had to do the following week.
"He is here." They all turned.
They were a bit confused as to what she was talking about,
"The CEO is coming to greet you all, so be on your best behavior." Said Claire their senior in charge of them.
She sounded very nervous but with a touch of excitement and maybe she was probably eyeing some promotion.
They all sat quietly and nervously, she hoped he was not the type to call out employees during meetings.
It was a big company, so she would not put it past him to do so, Ayla had prepared herself not to be weak but to use the constructive criticism to her advantage.
He walked in, and Ayla could not believe it, was that the man she had lost her virginity to? No there was no way. She had drank too much that night. So no, there was no way it was him.
She was confused and saw wrong that night. They probably just had a bit of similarities.
All the girls seemed to be murmuring amongst themselves. He turned to them and she avoided eye contact.
"Xavier, it is a pleasure to meet you all."
Ayla felt as if cold water was poured on her, there was only light from the moon, he did not see her well and her name. She had changed her name, so no he would not think it was her.
Oh yeah, she had cut her long her to shoulder length, so that added to her disguise. That night he did not see what clothes she was wearing, it's not something one focuses on.
She too had not focused on that, but he was the CEO of such a prestigious company, and she wondered how attentive he was to everything.
No Ayla stop! This is not the time for it, focus on what he was saying, she would freak out later.
She decided to sneak peek and when she did, his eyes met hers. Her heart beat very fast, Ayla had to act normal as if she had never seen him before.
Maybe he was looking at her because she was not paying attention, great what a way to make a first impression.
Finally, his speech finished and he was out, Ayla let out a deep breath, he did not remember her, as he had not made any other eye contact for the rest of the meeting.
She was stressed for nothing, they were at the bottom of the barrel, so there was no need for him to check up on them.
That's why they had supervisors, and so that consoled her a bit, that Xavier would be far away from her.
How did he not have any qualms about giving out his real name to her? That shocked her.
Did he not care if a scandal would break out or he was probably a playboy, that is why he did not seem to care about letting his identity known.
No, that didn't make any sense to her, nothing much was known about him, and if she hadn't seen his face that night, she wouldn't have known that he was the CEO.
Ohhhh….great way for him to have sex with women and not get caught, but he had given her his real name, and her mind worked.
"He is so hot."
"I want him in my bed."
Ayla took a sip of her water.
"Ayla, don't you think he would be amazing in bed?"
She choked on her water, "What?"
"Are you okay?" Carrie asked.
"Yes, I am. I wouldn't know."
But she knew alright, he was amazing in bed.
"He has everything." Her other colleagues kept on fawning over him.
All she did was nod and fake laugh with them all.
