She didn"t have enough sleep last night but she has to wake up early . She needs to send her child to school then go to the hotel after . Ah! She needs to be there before 9am or else she will lose her chance to get back to work .
She was trying to a.s.sess her drawer . What will she use? Will she use a formal attire? A dress? The hotel uniform? or what?! she can"t think straight . Will her attire affect the CEO"s judgement? She was thinking .
However, she"s not use to wearing dresses . She even hated it when she saw the employee uniform but what could she do? she needs to work, she needs money .
But a part of her was pus.h.i.+ng her to wear her casual outfit—pure white V-neck s.h.i.+rt paired with black jeans . She"ll just slay the interview with her answers . If the CEO can"t look pa.s.s through her outfit, then his a good for nothing then . They should hire people with ability and not base on their body .
"Miracle, time to go!" she shouted . Then after a few minutes, a little girl came into view . Ah, her independent baby . She smiled .
They trek the street happily and as soon as Mira entered her cla.s.s, Alex run towards the bus stop . She has one hour more . she should reach the hotel by 8:30 .
Meanwhile, Ethan woke up early . His subordinate was surprise as well but he chose not to question his boss . He loves his job and he doesn"t want to lose it, at least, not for now .
Max was Ethan"s a.s.sistant a.s.signed by the branched director . He only needs to a.s.sist the CEO for 2 weeks, and when he goes back to the central state, then he will go back to his old position as the branch director"s a.s.sociate .
To Max"s surprise, Ethan woke up early and ordered the staffs to clean his room . However, surprise they are, no one dares to defy nor question the reason of their boss . They usually clean the room when he went out for his business meetings . He doesn"t want to see any staff cleaning when his around . that"s why all the staffs where a bit stunned .
The staffs where dusting the room when Ethan decided to take his shower . After thirty minutes, he got out and was surprise to see the staffs mesmerized . They were ogling at his tone chest and that six packed abs, ah! They were all dying to touch it .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
"If your done cleaning then you can leave now . " he coldly uttered .
They shuddered . they were caught in the act and they were a bit embarra.s.sed . They don"t want to get fired so they kowtowed and dashed outside his room .
Unknown to Ethan, the female staffs went back to their posts and started talking about him . though it was not a bad one—they were actually talking about his absolute body!
Then Ethan looked at his wrist.w.a.tch, it"s still early . Might as well check some of his emails . So with just his trunks on, he went to his study table and opened his laptop . He was busy reading the emails that he has forgotten to check the time . he even forgot that he was only wearing his trunks . Who would blame him? he usually does that when his at home working .
Meanwhile, Aisha arrived at the hotel exactly 8:30am . Then she went to the information area to ask where suite 700 is . The employee a.s.sisting her was a bit shock and sized her up .

"I have an audience with Mr . Ethan at 9am at suite 700 . " She humbly voiced .
"Name?" the lady sarcastically asked .
"Alex Miran . "
The lady tried to check the computer in front of her and after a few minutes, she faked a smile .
"Please wait, someone will show you the way . " The lady on the front desk was astonished . The lady in front of her was tagged as a VIP guest . It rarely happens!
After a few seconds, a good-looking man who seems to be in his twenties came and a.s.sisted her . the way to suite 700 seems to be on another route . Ah, a private suite . Nice! She hissed . The employee pointed out the lone house and left the woman who was trying to calm her nerves .
She suddenly felt anxious but she needs to be composed before facing the man . so she inhaled and exhaled more than twice before she knocked . She"s been waiting for someone to open but to no avail . However, she noticed that the door was not actually locked . Ethan must have left it open so she could enter by the time she arrives .
She slowly opens the door and went inside . she was trying to look around in search for the man, but the living room was empty . Where could he be? Or is he still sleeping? Hmm…
"h.e.l.lo? Sir Ethan?" she called out . she was moving very slowly until she reached the other side . Then her jaw dropped and her eyes widened when she got a glimpse of the man--- naked! She gulped .
Ethan was caught off guard as well when he spun around . he was actually choosing a s.h.i.+rt when he heard a footstep on the doorway . He met her eyes, but the woman immediately turned around nervously .
"I"m… I"m very sorry! I didn"t mean to invade your privacy! I didn"t hear any response when I was knocking, but the door was not locked so I thought something bad happened to you . " the woman was explaining herself .
Ethan immediately wore his gray sweats.h.i.+rt and pulled any pants on the drawer while the woman was explaining .
"I"m sorry…" he can see the woman trembling, not sure if it was in fear or embarra.s.sment .
"I"ll be in the living room, sir . " She bit her lip in embarra.s.sment then strides to the living room . as soon as she reaches the sofa, she fell on it weakly . Dang! why is her body acting strangely? The wanting to touch the man"s body… ah! Why so pervert, Alex? She was. .h.i.tting her head when Ethan sat opposite her . then she immediately straightens herself . she couldn"t even look at the man"s eyes because of that .
Ethan, who can see her restlessness smirk within .
"Did you bring your resume?" he asked .
"Yes . " Alex nodded and handed him her resume . Ethan may look like he was scanning the content but the truth is, he was actually watching the woman . he was gauging the situation .
Did she really lost her memories? He was in deep thought .
"Tell me, prior to your application here, what did you do before?" Ethan asked .
"Eh?" Alex jerked . of all question, why did he asked her that?
"I…I…" she released a sigh then looked up to meet his eyes . she then smiled and her confidence came back at once . she needs a high paying job for now . it"s useless to quiver in front of this man so she decided to wear a professional att.i.tude, which Ethan didn"t fail to notice .
"After finis.h.i.+ng a short course for computer secretarial, I applied at the East Central school . luckily I got in and worked as an a.s.sistant secretary for a year and a half . However, the school underwent bankruptcy so I decided to apply here . Unfortunately, they don"t have any vacancy for the position that I was seeking but offered me a job as a server instead . " She explained .
"Why did you take the job as a server? Why didn"t you apply somewhere else instead?"
"I have a lot of bills to pay and I need a high-paying job . but more than that, I was told that a month from now, the admin might be posting some vacant positions . I was thinking of submitting another application if that time comes . "
Ethan seems to be thinking after hearing the woman"s reasoning . She has a lot of bills to pay? What kind of life is she living right now?
At that moment, Alex could see Ethan thinking profoundly . Does this mean she will get her job back? She was hoping and praying .
"I can get you your job back . However, I don"t think your suited to work at the hotel after hurting one of our clients . Did you know that the man filed a case against the hotel management?"
Alex widened her eyes in surprise . fudge! Looks like her chance flew the minute it came . Oh, she"s doomed! Totally doomed . She lowered her head guiltily .
"I can"t let you work at the hotel, but if you want, you can work under me . "
Alex was flabbergasted upon hearing the man"s preposition . Wait! is he serious? but what will she do exactly?
"I need a secretary as of the moment . tell me if you want to grab it so we can discuss your salary . You have until tomorrow to think over ----""
"Yes!" the woman interrupted him . "Can we discuss the salary right now?" her eyes were sparkling with joy .
He creased his brow . wait, she"s willing to work with him . so she was not acting her memory loss then . She really can"t remember him at all! his heart ached at the thought of it .
"But Alex, you should know that being my secretary also means becoming my personal a.s.sistant . You have to be with me all the time, wherever I go, whatever I do, you should stick with me . are you okay with that?"
The woman slowly beamed and made sure to look at him in the eyes . "I"ll be with you wherever you go…"
