Chapter 3 - Two Alphas
Working in Nightly Group is better than I thought.
Not only am I the only girl in my department but everyone takes me seriously there. Maven is like a big brother to all of the other programmers, getting them food or coffee when they need it.
I quote, he has the answers to everything. They were accepting of me and my sudden appearance and despite the other departments making fun of me for being so young, I've got an army of big brothers to back me up.
One day, while walking towards the printer, I noticed a man look down at the bottom floor. His murderous aura could make a normal person avert their gaze.
His eyes then somehow fell on me and I felt their intensity increase.
I, instead of turning and walking away, sneered at his feeble attempt to scare me and gently turned around, skipping away to the printer room.
Chloe Cage
Who is that grump up there?
Maven looked up and rapidly looked away as he left the printer room with me, carrying copies and copies of paper.
Maven Jacobs
Don't look at him in the eye. He can sense fear.
Maven Jacobs
He's the CEO of Nightly Group.
Maven Jacobs
Liam Nightly.
As soon as I got back, I got descriptions of him back and forth.
Programmer A
I heard that if you put him in the fridge, he'd freeze the fridge.
Programmer B
His glare is as murderous as any assassin. Someone told me that once, he caused a whole board of men to have heart attacks. Simultaneously.
Well, scary for a little girl.
Chloe Cage
So he's like a big scary teddy bear.
Some of the men chuckled.
Programmer A
He's worse than that.
Maven Jacobs
Chloe! You got an email.
Trotting around to my computer, I saw the email and clicked on it.
Chloe Cage
Oh, it's the CEO. He wants me in his office ASAP.
The whole room became like a room in a haunted house. Everyone had their eyes down on their keyboards.
Chloe Cage
Okay~. I'll be back on a moment!
I skipped towards the elevator and one guy at the back syatyed to cry.
Programmer A
Our Chloe is so strong.
Programmer B
Let's work on double speed!
Maven couldn't help but feel concerned.
Not because the work was going to get disrupted... but because he really wanted to take me out for a drink after work today.
I knocked on the CEO's door and I heard a chilling "Enter". Walking in, I saw him, his eyes looking as red as blood.
Chloe Cage
Can I help you, Sir?
Chloe Cage
Hold on, you called me here not knowing who I am?
Chloe Cage
I'm Chloe Cage. I'm the head of the Programming department.
Liam Nightly
I believe that I remember saying to have said to hire the best of the university's class? Not a child-
Chloe Cage
For your information, I'm anything but a child. I graduated University at 18 studying programming and business. I was top in both of my classes.
He stated into my eyes and there was a moment where I thought that we were having a no-blinking contest.
Liam Nightly
I don't need someone like you working at my company. Leave, now.
