Their End, My Beginning novel Chapter 30

*Kat’s POV

The next day, I was sitting in my office drawing the designs. I felt weird, as if something was off. My answer was answered as I looked to my left, glancing at his empty office.

I have heard that he comes 30 minutes before everyone else comes and yesterday was the first time he was late and that was just 1 and a half hour late. But today he is 3 hours late. While I was looking at my watch, calculating how many hours he was late. My doors burst open and a red head frantically came in with flowers in her hands. Might I add panting. What has got her panties in a twist!

I looked at her amusingly with my head on my crossed fingers, keeping my elbows on the table.

“Katherine! Hi I need your help.” She said panting. I raised my eyebrows in question.

“Okay, here’s the thing, Mr. Scott is not well his friend called me and said that he wouldn’t come today and also to send some nurse.” She said panicking. She caught my attention on Ry is not well information.

“What happened to him?”

“If I knew that I wouldn’t stand in front of you, would I?” she retorted.

“Okay hold on a second, I am not the reason he has fallen sick and the last time I checked you were in more contact with than me so I don’t understand how you standing in front of me telling that piece of information would help you.” I said getting annoyed as she didn’t answer one freaking question I have asked. To say it worried me is an understatement. I wanted to know what happened and how he is.

She eye rolls and says, “The reason I am here is not to know how he fell sick or how he is, but to send someone to him by the time a nurse is scheduled for. For my unfortunate I can’t go since I and Mr. Scott’s vice president has to handle the office works and since you don’t have any work other than drawing, I want you to give him these flowers and wait there till a nurse arrives.” She says handing me the flowers in her hands.

Okay, now I am shocked. “You said you want me to go to his house?” I ask again to check if I heard it properly.

“Can you be any more stupid? Yes, I said for you to go to his house. Please, just do as your said before you waste anymore of my time.” She says or should I say ordered me.

I didn’t know what to do, to tell her not to order me because she is not my boss, hell even Ryder doesn’t have the right to order me, or to go to him when I know he needs my help. I decided I will put her in her place after I have dealt with the problem in hand, Ryder, though it might give her the satisfaction of me listening to her orders.

She further told me that his chauffeur is waiting downstairs to drop me at his house and so I took the flowers from her more like snatched it and walked out, pushing her shoulder with mine and then apologizing. At least that will give make my ego happy.
