Babysitting the Billionaire's Twin novel Chapter 2

Autumn's Point of View

“What?” I asked because I didn't hear what he said.

“Can you repeat it?” I asked again but, he just stares at me and started to speak.

“Is that the way you talk to your soon-to-be boss?” He said while I started to apologize because of what I did, that's right, I don't have any rights to ask him and the fault is mine because I didn't focus on what he said.

“Ah, my apologies, Sir Jaxon, I didn't mean to not hear the last sentence you said. I am just mesmerized by the view up here,” I said while flashing a smile. He just stared at me in the eyes like he was reading what's on my mind.

“Oh, well, is this your first time to be here in my hotel?” he asked, emphasizing the word my. The truth is, this is my first time to be here in his hotel, and I could say that this is so amazing.

Such an honor for me to be here. I know Lea wouldn't believe it when I say that I saw Mr. Parker's office, not on television, but in reality.

“Yes, your office is so breathtaking. The view from here is my favorite part. I am sorry for asking, but may I ask why I am here?” I asked. It's too late when I realized what I said. It's like we're going to do something here.

I shook my head because of the thought that it is not right. I need to control it and don't think about things that were not about the reason why I came here. The only reason I am here is because of the job. I don't want to lose this opportunity.

“Oh, yes, I am the one who will interview you for the position,” he replied. I felt my blood wake up because of what he said.

That means the position of being a receptionist is yet taken. And take note, he will be the one who will interview me.

“Why do you want to be a receptionist?” he asked while I was thinking of what I should reply. The reason why I want to be a receptionist is that I am tired of being a waitress. It is so noisy and the chef there is so rude. I needed this job so that I could earn money. I dream of having a flower shop in the future.

“I want to get this position because I know I will be good at it. I am a very organized person. I can manage my customers and comfortably talk to others,” I answered with so much confidence. I could say that I am qualified to get the job that I want and manage it in my way.

“Do you have any experience of being a receptionist?” he added, not showing any amazement on his face.

“Sir, I don't have any experience of being a receptionist, but I know how to handle my patience and I can also—” He cut off by tapping his fingers on the table, causing a loud, thump noise.

“Don't repeat the same answer on the other question. Can you skip the part of what is written in your resume? I want to hear an impromptu and real answer,” he said. His eyes were looking at the pen he was holding. I didn't know that the interview would be like this. I thought he would just ask what was on the resume.

“So, you're a waitress before. Why should I entrust you this position?” he asked. His eyes were looking now in my eyes. I don't know what to answer.

“Just like what I said—” He cut off again. What should I say? I felt my cheeks going red because of the anger I was starting to feel.

“Tut-tut, if you're just going to repeat your answer, I don't want to hear it.”

I tried to calm myself because I can't concentrate anymore.
