Husband you've abandoned me Fine I'll focus on raising my son novel Chapter 95

Chapter 95: I failed as a CEO

My eyes widened in surprise at all the positive things he’d listed about me.

"My assistant needs to be someone who cares about the company. Someone who cares about employees and has a good relationship with them. Your actions over the last couple of days have shown that you care about your coworkers and the restaurant. Your coworkers also seem to care very much for you too after seeing you with them on Thursday."

He was talking about Mike and Megan. My eyes softened as Louis continued. He was making me seem like a saint.

"And lastly, giving the position to a woman this time around would ensure the situation with Gatwick didn’t occur again. Not to say a woman isn’t capable of what he did but it’s less likely. Also, I’m sure I would find out if it was you," he finished off.

I said nothing as I stared at him considering his offer. I just couldn’t believe it, he had me convinced I could do it.

"But anyway, those are all my reasons for wanting you to take the position. Not due to connections or pity but your own merit," he explained himself. "Of course, I can’t force you to take the position but I think you would be great. Besides this will be a great opportunity for you to see how a business operates. Since you hope to start your own business one day, right? This is a rare chance considering this business will shut down soon."

He just kept all the reasons I should take the job. I pressed my lips together as I slowly considered the idea. I could learn a lot from the position.

"What’s the annual salary?" I then asked.

"340,000 a year," he informed me. " Plus benefits like a mortgage, insurance, and a car."

My eyebrows raised. With that salary, I could quickly make back the money I gave to Mike within two months. Not to mention, by working for Louis I could ’earn my keep’ since he was helping Tony and me. Which wasn’t bad. This—this could work.

"So basically I’ll be your secretary?" I asked him.

"An executive assistant is more than just a secretary, yes you’ll prepare and organize my schedule, help me file paperwork, etc... but you’ll also be like a business strategist giving your insight on the company, managing projects. You’ll see the full details of the job."

He then paused as he studied me got a moment.

"You’re taking to job, right?" he asked me. His golden eyes seemed to glow as they stared back into mine.

"Yes, I would like to take the position," I accepted the offer.

"Good," he commented. "I’ll send you the contract and the full details of the job."

"When do I start?"

"When you’re ready to. The sooner the better," he told me.

When we were done we stood up from the seating area to go back into the house. I then surprised myself when I got closer to Louis and gave him a hug.

"Oh," he said taken by surprise.

"Thank you, Louis," I said to him.

He then hugged me back after a moment. "It’s no problem at all," he replied.

I was so grateful to Louis honestly. He was literally helping me solve all my problems one by one. Never in my mind did I think I would get a corporate job my whole life I had been trained to be a wife with no formal education.
