C3 Chapter 2

The young CEO she had seen a few days ago in the news daily was the same person standing in front of her. Was she in the right office? Photos did little justice to his arresting virility. He was much more attractive in person. "Stop gawking like a hawk. Haven't you seen a man ever in your life?" He affronted going more irritated seeing the shock in her eyes.

Aliza coughed restless and the man pushed the water glass on the table towards her. "I'm sorry sir. I'm here for the interview of the personal assistant and secretary. I think I have entered the wrong room, I think I heard you wrong....." She went blabbering in pensiveness. "Will you stop the prattle? You are in the right place." The man pitched high at her.

"Well Ms Aliza Stelwart...." He looked down at the candidates list placed down on his desk to address her by her name. Aliza jumped out of her skin the way her name rolled out so casual from the tone of the handsome CEO and for a moment she felt her name really beautiful. Putting aside the job interview, in which 99% of the cases she wouldn't succeed, Aliza felt immensely lucky. For a normal middle class girl that she was Aliza was fortunate to have met the most richest business man in the country. Will he give me an autograph....least a photo? She thought like an innocent school going girl.

"Ms Aliza Stelwart...." The CEO spoke annoyed. "Have you got a problem of distraction in concentration? Well, there rests the exit." He pointed to the door behind her with his eyes. "You are unnecessarily wasting my time." Sexy dominating hunk....She thought going mesmeric by his steel Grays that moved tantalizing complimenting his prepotent supremacy.

"Yes sir, I....I mean no sir." She answered feeble. Aliza felt like a stupid losing her control influenced by the dominating ambience of the sexy CEO. "Stop the chatter and show me your file?" He extended his hand in exasperation. Within two minutes he raised his eyes to her from the file. "You are not even a graduate. Who allowed you inside the office for the interview? He spoke ruling about to dial a number with his face going red in anger. "Sir please have mercy and listen to me. I heard you have a generous heart." Aliza requested almost touching his hand to stop him from holding the receiver.

Charles raised his eyes in a warning. "I'm sorry sir..." Aliza whispered low trying her best to hold her tears before the strict CEO. "Ms Stelwart I'm not running a charity here if you're talking about my philanthropy. I am conducting interviews for my personal assistant and you are wasting my time." He raised his hand and checked the time on his Rolex impatiently waiting for Aliza to leave. "You may take the lift and reach the seventh floor of our concern. Our employees present there will provide you with an assistance for whatever financial help you require."

"Sir please give me two minutes. You have been very generous to me all this while in giving me a lot of your time, just two minutes more." Aliza urged with her hands folded. "I told a lie at the reception that I was a graduate and came to this interview." She exposed herself with her head bowed to the floor. "And how did you manage with the duplicate certificate?" Charles asked surprised at the mediocre girl. "Jack, my uncle's colleague helped me in this. My uncle used to work in a printing press before his retirement."

Charles muttered a curse low under his breath then his eyes flared daggers at the immature girl. "Do you know Ms Stelwart for this bypass, I can send both you and your friend Jack behind the bars?" Aliza shivered in fright arrested under his irated gaze. "Sir please forgive me. I will never do such elusion in my life again. I desperately need this job. I know I am below qualified but just give a second to explain myself. Please look at my accomplishments stated in the file. I have obtained the best grades in every field concerning academic as well as extra curricular activities. I stood my school first and am also a scholarship achiever for continuously being the first ranker in the last three academic years."

Charles looked down at the file thoughtful playing his pen between his fingers. "Ms Stelwart to tell you frankly you are not suitable for this job. But...." He looks at her contemplative. "I like the spirit inside you. You go out and wait outside in the visitors lounge. My secretary will give you a set of questions relating to our businesses and you will need to answer them. The stationary and other necessary items will be provided to you. Any further queries you can ask her." He nods at her as a sign of dismissal.

Aliza gave a relieved smile to the CEO. "Sir thank you for giving me this opportunity. I will not disappoint you." She told him in confidence and walked out of the cabin. The CEO was much a patient man for the dignity and power he beholds. Aliza mused without a doubt. After one and half hours she finished her test and handed over the papers to the secretary.

The night Aliza finished her household work and kept her fingers crossed. There was an untold adoration and respect in her for the humble CEO who was so benevolent to consider her in spite of her being under qualified. Heebie-jeebies crossed her heart as the handsome's features crossed her mind. He was charismatic, powerful and was very knowledgeable. The way he conducted himself....the manner he moved his eyes...the movement of his fingers....the body language everything about him held elegance.

His perfect black suit that covered his well defined shoulders, those sharp gray orbs during the very few times he looked at her.....every feature about him held a might. Aliza landed smiling to herself like a bovine. She may not see the man ever again in her life but the virility and the power with a subtle gentleness in his conduct will always keep her fascinated towards him.

It has been ten days since she gave the interview but Aliza did not receive any response from Richmond Industries. Well, Aliza knew since the beginning that her chances were very remote but still disappointment etched her features not for losing the job but for the fact she would never be able to meet the fanciable CEO again.

It was a pleasure to meet you Mr Charles Rodriguez. She spoke to herself with a smile and pinched her hand after looking around if anybody was watching her. Get out of your fantasy Aliza. He would have forgotten you the moment you left the chair opposite to him. He desperately needed to get you out of his room so that he could work in peace and that is why in the pretext of the secretarial examination he fled you away. Her mind taunted teaching her the lesson much required.

"You bitch...how much time it would take for you to make the lunch?" Her aunt strided into the kitchen and awarded Aliza a slap. Aliza could see stars with the hit. Looking down to the floor she rubbed her cheek to arrest the sting and spoke meek arresting her tears. "Within two minutes I will place the dishes on the dining table Aunt Stella." Gripping Aliza's hair her aunt made Aliza to face her. "Since the time you gave that stupid job interview you have been building castles in air. Why will the top most firm of the country hire an after all school graduate like you?"

I have spoken to my brother yesterday and he had kindly obliged to appoint you as his assistant. Be prepared to receive a phone call from his office by tomorrow. Aliza's features went pale in fear and helplessness. Her aunt Stella's brother is an owner of a motel nearby. He is divorced by his wife ten years ago and a womanizer. The whole family knew he lusted her and her aunt is making plans to marry her off to the forty five year old philanderer but nobody have the guts to fight Stella in this matter including her uncle.

The next day at nine in the morning Aliza received a phone call. "Am I speaking to Ms Aliza Stelwart?" Placing the phone between her shoulder and ear Aliza gave a feeble reply cutting the onions for making breakfast. She knew from where she is being contacted. "Yes speaking?" The next words the woman spoke at the other end gave her the shock of the millennium.

She is hauled.
