Chapter 44- Pissed
I don't care who the hell she is but there is no way we were taking anything down. She looked at me one last time before walking out of the hall.
" Gosh she's so annoying," I heard Becky whisper as she watched the grumpy bitch storm out, I still didn't know who she was.
" It seems you really don't know her?" Becky asked as if I cared to know anything about someone like her.
" Like I'm supposed to know someone like that? I'm seriously glad I don't know her."
" She's the only daughter of one of America's biggest billionaires, she's a model, her name is Mirabel Oscar, you can check her up," Becky said and I looked at her like she had gone crazy.
" What?" She asked.
" You seriously think I'm going to waste my time searching for someone like that? Don't I have more important things to do? A disrespectful pompous bitch like her, someone who just slapped me, no way,"
" So what am I going to do? Should I bring down everything like she said?"
" That's not going to happen, we don't have that time, I'm going to talk to my boss about this, there won't be any changes done, be rest assured, you did a very spectacular job, don't let what she said get to you."
" Of course, I can't be affected by words from someone like that, they only know how to complain about things but they can't get anything done," She said and I chuckled.
" Oh shit, uhm Miss Fredrick I think your cheek is turning red." Shit! I can't let Cole see my face like this, he'd flare up.
" I'll just have to cover it, I have to return to the office," I said to her before she walked me out of the hall.
I got into my car and looked in the mirror, it was quite bad, bitch got a strong hand, I swear the next time we cross paths and she tries something like this I would be pulling out her eyes rich girl or not.
I started my car as I drove out of the hotel going back to the office. I looked at my face in the mirror again to see that my cheek was a little swollen although I used my foundation to cover the red skin. Cole wouldn't know something was wrong.
I got out of the car and walked inside the company, then I walked into the elevator and waited patiently to reach our floor.
When I reached our office floor I walked straight to my desk and sat down trying to calm myself before I reported what happened at the hotel to my boss. I'll have to skip the slapping part.
I loosened my hair from the ponytail hairstyle I packed it, leaving it to fall so it could cover my face a little. Just as I stood up and was about to go to Cole's office his door opened.
" Hey, when did you get back?" He asked as he walked to my office.
" Not too long, I was just about to come see you,"
" Okay, so how did everything go?" He asked.
" Not good, I met a very dramatic woman there,"
" Who's that?"
" I don't know her, they said she's Mirabel Oscar or something, she caused a lot of trouble,"
" Mirabel was there? What for?" Of course, he knows her.
" Hey, wipe that look off your face, I think she's a co-host of the event, and her father is one of our business partners,"
" I didn't say anything, it's just that she came there and said we should change the entire decoration of the hall when we just have two days to the event,"
" Mirabel," Cole said with a groan.
" I'll take care of that you don't have to worry, hope she didn't cause you much trouble?" He asked, not really she just touched my face tenderly.
My hair was disturbing me so I pushed it back but immediately I regretted my action. How could I forget so soon why I had let the hair down in the first place?
" Why's your cheek swollen?" Cole asked as he quickly touched my face and I hissed pushing his hand away, I have very sensitive skin which makes me easily bruise and my skin get easily swollen if hit harshly.
" It's nothing I just got hit by the door," What door Anna? What door? I facepalmed internally.
" You're lying," Cole pointed out.
" Did someone hit you?" He asked as his jaw clenched in anger.
" It's nothing Cole,"
" Are you serious? It's nothing, are you saying if I go out and come back with an injury you're going to accept it when I let you it's nothing?"
" No…"
" Then tell me what happened?"
" It's just that…uhm…"
" Mirabel did this to you, is she crazy or something? What gives her the right to think she could slap you and get away with it."
" Cole, calm down, don't stress yourself about someone like her, she's just a mannerless spoilt brat who is taking advantage of the power she has,"
" I swear she should thank her stars she's a woman or else what I would have done to her, she wouldn't have liked it one bit,"
" It's okay," I said as I adjusted his suit jacket.
" Don't you have like a dinner to attend with your parents tonight?"
" Yeah," He groaned as he rubbed his forehead.
" I'm really not in the mood to face my Dad, but I don't have a choice, since he has specifically asked for me I have no choice but to go, I wish I could take you with me as my girlfriend, that would make me feel better,"
" Well, you can look at me as long as you wish, you've still got a lot of time before dinner, I can work in your office if you want,"
" That would be so great,"
" I was just kidding, you'd be distracted, go back to work," I said as I made myself comfortable on my chair.
" You're such a mean woman,"
" You love me,"
" More than you can imagine," That made my heart jump.
He returned to his office while I focused back on my work. My phone started ringing but I ignored it, now was not the time for personal calls, I was at work and busy. But the caller was so persistent and wouldn't stop calling.
Grudgingly I picked up the phone without looking.
" Hello," I said but got no answer, I pulled the phone from my ear to check if the caller was still on and the call was still connected.
" Hello?"
" My love," My heart and breath stopped.
