My Innocent Girl novel Chapter 4

I looked at him more precisely as he called me Ash. "I like people who do smart work more than hard work. And it is hard to say, but I am impressed"

I smiled at my victory as he gave me my paper. "But you know? This was the only work for the entire day. Now you should go to your home, you earned this leave"

I should have gone, but I had nothing to do in that house, the house which reminds me of everything.

"Actually sir" he looked at me. "I would have gone, but I think I'd rather work than sitting at home"

"Okay then" he switched on his laptop.

"Lower the blinds of the window, Ash"

"Okay..." I went and lowered them. What does he want privacy for?

Ashley

"Lower the blinds of the window, Ash" he ordered me.

"Okay," I agreed and lowered them.

He called me towards him.

"Here. See this. This is the most confidential document of this company, I am showing you this so," I looked at him. "I trust you" I looked at the laptop screen.

I nodded.

"I am only showing you cause I need you to study this and know about our strengths and weaknesses. I want you to be aware of our capabilities. Only you are allowed to read and see this. No one, and I mean not another soul should know this"

I nodded. "Okay, sir"

"And Ash" I again looked at him. "Don't lower the blinds just because someone told you to. You can't possibly trust anyone, including me in such a small span of time"

I nodded embarrassed. "And if you need to study these documents, only do them here in my cabin"

"Okay sir"

"Good"

I smiled and he closed his laptop, and I opened the window blinds.

"By the way," he sat down on his seat. "The work is done. Have a rest now. You need to come tomorrow morning at 8 here, and we have some work tomorrow"

"Okay sir," I said and left the room.

He is very different from what I have heard till now.

He is understanding and genuinely good.

I went to the reception.

"Bye Kate" I wished her as she smiled.

"Wait. How did everything go?"

"I impressed him!" I exclaimed and she looked visibly shocked.

"Woah, you rock girl!"

"Thank you!"

"No, it is a really big achievement!"

"But..." I said. "He looked easy to impress"

It is true, Mr. Brown, I have a crush on you.

On the very first day.

I went to do some cooking to take my mind off all the things as they came back to me because of my surroundings. I have to focus on the future, and not on the past.

I ate whatever I made and then went to bed. I did a lot of research on Mr. Brown. He is a really big businessman. He owns many places, and I really can't believe that his net worth is now $654 billion.

I mean, crazy, right?

He is so down to Earth. He is really a great man as I have noticed.

I have to make it on time tomorrow, so I slept.

I woke up and saw the time. It showed 7:06. I should wake up; I really know that I can't wake up after five minutes or something.

I got ready. I don't know what I have to do today. Mr. Brown... or I should say, Christopher? At least I can call him by his name in my thoughts. So, he told me that today I have some work.

Checking the time, I made my way downstairs. I need to really get a vehicle. It is costing too much for a taxi every day. But I can't just buy some vehicle, I am not a 'billionaire'.

But anyway, I think I'd do that with my first salary.

Which means... the entire month.

I sighed and sat inside a cab and went to the headquarters.

I went inside and Kate smiled looking at me.

"Woah I was really missing you!" she smiled.
