Business trip

5 months later…

I’m supposed to be having a business trip today with Mei my secretary, and honestly I really do not want to go with her. It’s nothing bad on her end I just bought together don’t really like people and the fact I have to go on a business trip with a person is kind of uncomfortable, but she’s my secretary so she kind of has go with me. I guess I have to start packing for the trip. It’s going to be three days long, so I need to bring three days worth of clothes and definitely books. Well it’s time for me to leave. I am not excited for this trip at all.

Mei Pov:

So I got a text from my boss and apparently I am going on a business trip with him now I’ve heard about him and business trips with his past secretaries. He absolutely hated them. Understandable considering every single girl who is a secretary and a guy literally fell in love with him, I understand it would’ve been very stressful for him. But luckily for him I am not like that and he has 100%. Not my type. I prefer a respectful guy who doesn’t push me around all the time.

It’s been five months since I started the job I don’t hate it, but again he hasn’t been the best to me.

I need to start packing we’re gonna be there for three nights so I guess I need to pack things for tonight because I can just wear the same thing I wore there, on my way back.

Alecs Pov:

I make it to my office with my bag, full of clothes for the business trip Mei told me that she’s going to be here in five minutes I need to prepare myself.

5 Minutes later

“Mr Alec, I am here. Can I come in”

I hear her voice from behind the door and I shout

Yes, come in please . She walked in as I finish my sentence I haven’t seen her in her out door clothes.

Meis Pov:

These past few weeks has been literally traumatic ever since my first day of work. He has got it more Snarky and rude, so hopefully this trip is going to smooth things out with us.

Um hello sir.

He doesn’t reply. All he does is stare at me and goes “mhm”. He doesn’t even speak to me anymore, he just gives me a look. It is very frustrating. I thought about quitting so many times, but I can’t I need to get through this.

These past few weeks have been literally garbage I don’t even know why I need to have a secretary I don’t like her do I have a specific reason no I don’t but I just don’t have her vibe is really weird. It’s good that she doesn’t like me romantically, but I just don’t like how she is.

Oi we need to get going now hurry up.

We’re making our way to my car and because of the lack of chauffeurs, I have to actually drive her there, which I have been hating taken her to have a faces because I don’t want to be near her.

After a two hour and a half drive and make it to our destination. Of course, it’s going to be awkward as much as I don’t want to talk to her. The awkwardness is making me angry.

Are you are you going to talk at some point or are you gonna sit and look like an idiot?

I say to her I know it’s mean I can’t help it, but maybe if I act like this she won’t get the wrong intentions.

Here he goes again, calling me an idiot, I don’t know what’s wrong with him or what I did to him. I generally don’t understand what his is issue is he hasn’t voice to me that I did something wrong, and I’m most definitely not falling in love with him so he just wants to be a **** without a reason, seems about right.

Sir, I’m going to put my stuff in the room and I’m gonna be back down. I say he turned to me and said “ you don’t need to voice everything you are doing, just hurry up and get down here”

I sigh loudly he probably heard me, but I just don’t understand it is getting very frustrated, not know what his problem is.

Mei went upstairs finally, and I have the information about her that I didn’t get to look at so I can finally do that. I open the file and I’m reading the first paragraph into my shock. She is the daughter of the rival company. Why would she come here? Maybe she is here for her father if so, I can’t let her go to any of the meetings.

And I am livid I cannot believe I ended up hiring someone who could be a spy I don’t know what to do now the only reasonable thing to do is to fire her. I hear footsteps she’s coming back. I need to ask her about this now before we do anything.

Mei I need to speak to you so I’ve been looking through your file because I didn’t get to do that before you actually became my secretary but now I am going to ask you a question.

Is your dad’s name no Captain come Kazuki Hinata because if your answer is yes, we might have some problems.

“ yes he’s my dad why I don’t see a problem with my dad and I don’t really have a choice so what is the problem”

He is the rival company to ours and you’re working with us why? Why not work with your dad’s company he would’ve let you in easy I mean you’re his daughter, he probably could pay for you to get in.

“ sorry intrude me being rude but why would you ask such a personal question and then attack me like that I’m done I don’t wanna go on a business trip with you I’m leaving you could do this yourself see you in four days”

And she walks off just like that, as much as I understand why she did that it is very unprofessional for her. I did go too far. I can’t do anything about it now. I just have to get through these three days and try to apologise at least. This is going to be a long three days.

3 days later…

I’m waiting outside for my chauffeur. I’ve been waiting out here for half an hour now and no one has showed up I’m livid and I’m tired. I didn’t get to sleep the night before I was staying up thinking of an apology I don’t ever do apologise because I’m never wrong so the fact that there is a chance I am incorrect is weird.

Before I tried to call the office again, a car pulled up it is Mei, I have no idea what she is doing here, but she drove 2 1/2 hours to collect me know. I’m not sure what her do you live, but I appreciate it none of the less.

“ I thought no one would be here to collect you, so I drove my way here and I just wanted to let you know that the reason I’m not working at my dad‘s company is because I am banished from the family.”

Banished, why would they banish you? That makes absolutely no sense is there a reason? . God, this is the first time I’ve ever felt like an idiot.

“ well, actually, if you would like to know the reason why they vanished from the family was because I want to work for your company instead of theirs”

Shit, I’m sorry I didn’t know I’m such an idiot I have a really bad trust issues. The reason why I went through the Fire and acted like that was because one of my secretaries was from a revival company and it ruined everything so the fact that it happened again was stressful, and I apologise about the things I said.

“ I understand, understand how stressful running a business could be, especially a business so successful you like yours you don’t need to stress about it”

How about, I take you out to eat something it’s not gonna be anything too much, I’ll just take you out to eat something and we can get to know each other as coworkers.

“ yeah I would like that, but we need to hurry up because you need to do something at the office first”
