SEDUCING MY STEPBROTHER novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Lexi walked into her office the next day, her cheek flushed as she remembers what happened the previous day.

The shocked look on Cora's face was like her golden prize to her, the poor girl must have cried herself to sleep last night, knowing the man she pined for all her life had no iota of feeling for her.

"Welcome ma'am," her new secretary, Joyce greeted as she walked by her desk.

"How is your day Joyce? How is work coming along?"

"I am happy I get to work with you ma'am, I can't believe I get to plan so many weddings in just a week!" Joyce squealed.

"I look forward to working with you and getting to see you show your potential around here," Lexi flicked her hair and walked into her office.

Thanks to her stepfather, who decided it was time she have an office of her own instead of using her old small, rented office back in England.

Balthas gave her a large spacious office, helped her look for people capable of working with her and employed them for her. Now she has her own PA, secretary, caterers, decorators and staff needed to prepare for a good wedding party.

The door to her office click open and Tessa, her personal assistant walked in without waiting for her to call her in.

"Good morning boss," Tessa dropped a blue folder on the desk and sat across from her.

"What do you have for me today, Tes?" She flipped the file open to the plans for the week.

"For this week, we are fully booked by top dignitaries who want us to plan their wedding parties and their reception for them," she began. "Tomorrow, we would be meeting the De Lucas couple... They attended your mother's wedding and love the whole concept, so they want the same concept ok their wedding day."

A knock on the door has us turning our heads to see who it is. Joyce walked in with a radiant smile on her face, she was almost running, prolly not being able to contain her excitement.

"What is it that has you smiling like that?" Lexi narrowed her eyes at the girl.

"I just got some emails a few minutes ago," she squealed, clapping her hand to show how excited she is. "We have twenty more wedding plans to accept, I left them pending for now."

Lexi couldn't believe her ears, it was like a dream come true for her. She had always wished to have all her weeks booked by her client, but the highest she ever get is one job in two months.

But now... Now, she can decide which job she wants to take and which one she wants to leave, all thanks to her stepfather, who introduced her to the world of the privileged.

"How many weddings do we have to plan this week?" She turned to Tessa, who picked up the file in front of her and flipped through it, scanning each line.

"We have ten weddings to plan this week," Tessa looked up from the file and stared at her.

"Joyce, go back to your office and jot down the dates of each wedding request we received today, bring it here when you are done, I'll go through it and tell you what we would do to each one of them," Joyce skipped out of the office, bouncing on her heels.

"What else is there in my schedule, Tes?"

"In about an hour from now, you are going to meet with the owner of Delitaste restaurant. She wants to discuss how her restaurant and our office can be in omg the contract."

"Apart from that?" Lexi asked, bobbing her head to let Tessa know she already heard her.
