My Hired Lover is a CEO

H City.

On a pleasant sunny Monday morning, the city was active with a beehive of activities. Noise pollution was evident and in every each passing second, the noises only turned high and mighty. Sounds of hurried walking footsteps, horn blaring noises, drivers cursing at one another as one tried to overtake the other. Hushed whispers amongst pedestrians....It was chaotic. A norm.

In a bus station sat a young woman staring blankly at anything and everything her eyes wandered to. One glance at her and one would already figure out that the girl wasn't there. No, she was. But her mind wasn't. Her thoughts weren't. She was lost in...her own thoughts.

As she dazedly sat there, her long black hair dancing along with the wind, her fair white skin glistening from the morning sun, she looked like a goddess. No, she was a goddess...but a pitiful one. Her dark brown eyes flickered and her long eyelashes wavered as she recollected a scene from earlier.

***

AL&R Corporation.

A young lady was sat behind her office desk, her fingers fighting with the keyboard as she typed away documents. Seating with an aura of confidence, coupled with her elegant seating posture, she looked professional. After desperately typing for a while, she felt tired and took a bottle of water to cool her parched throat. Chugging down the bottle of water, her eyes ceremoniously landed on a pallet on top of her desk. Staring at it, her eyes instantly watered. It was Her name. Her name was embedded on a silver pallet after getting the job of a secretary in one of the biggest companies in the country. It felt surreal, she had slapped herself severally to ensure it wasn't a dream after she got the message from the company a few weeks ago. But alas, it wasn't a dream. Even if it was, she never wanted to wake up from the beautiful dream. Never.

Diana Hudson caressed the silver pallet with a lot of care as she gazed lovingly at it.

"I did it, Mom" She said with a shaky voice, unpleasant memories flooding into her head. Quickly regaining her composure, she shook the thoughts off her head.

" No negative thoughts from now on, Diana." She told herself reassuredly patting her cheeks gently with both hands. Putting everything aside, she dived right into her waiting job.

No sooner had she put her fingers on the keyboard that she felt something soft and furry graze her leg from under the desk. Ignoring whatever it was, she continued with her work. She wasn't ready to let some lazy flyaway paper make her lose her new job. She had a goal to reach.

Humming her way back to the challenge in front her, she continued typing. But the paper won't let her be. It just keeps coming back! Argh!

Kicking it off, she went back to work. She was hellbent on finishing this work before her boss came back from the executive meeting, if not, she was the one who was going to be finished.
