Did I put water in my mouth? You will be f0ll0wing me for a dinner date. The CEO said.
Okay sir. Mirabel replied and still stood there. What? The CEO asked her. Is there any other thing you need Sir? Mirabel asked the CEO.
No, you can leave now. The CEO said. As Mirabel turned to leave. The CEO asked her to wait.
Do you have a dress to wear for the dinner? The CEO asked her. I have some clothes. Mirabel replied.
You know what? Send me your account number. I will send you some money now. Go to the boutique not far from the office and get some dresses. Bring them to my office, so that I can choose the one you should wear. The CEO said.
Okay sir. Mirabel replied.
She sent her account details to the CEO. As soon as she was reaching her office. She got the alert. The CEO sent N300K to her account. This was even more than her salary.
She went to the CEO office to inform him she has seen the alert. The CEO asked her to quickly go to the boutique to get the clothes.
She went to the boutique and got the clothes she wanted. When she came back to the office. The CEO was very busy. Just dress your best Mirabel. We are going to meet important clients, please don't disappoint me. The CEO said.
The HR heard that the CEO bought clothes for Mirabel and this got her even more angry. To make matters w0rst, the CEO was planning to take for a dinner to meet some clients?
The CEO has always taken the HR to important business meetings. Why is he now taking the new girl all of a sudden?.
Mirabel was in her office when the HR walked in.
Good morning ma. Mirabel greeted the HR. Save your greetings to yourself. Pretender. I know your type. I know what you have in mind to do. All this young slùts looking for rich men to squānder their money. The HR said. Excuse me madam. Mirabel said.
Excuse yourself. I will make sure you get fired from this Job. The HR said and angrily left the office.
She went to the CEO's office. Mirabel overheard n0ise coming out of the CEO office.
The CEO and the HR were arguing. And it must be about her. The HR left the CEO's office few minutes later and hissed when she passed Mirabel's office.
Before close of work that day, the CEO asked Mirabel to send her address to him. My Driver will come pick you up. And please don't be late. He will arrive your place by 6PM. No African time. The CEO said.
Thank you sir. Mirabel replied. Jemima was waiting outside the office for Mirabel after close of work.
Mirabel you are really blessed oo. Jemima said immediately she saw Mirabel.
What again this time? Mirabel asked.
Since I started working in this office, oga has never taken anyone else for a business date apart from the HR. I believe that the HR must be búrning in ānger right now. Jemima said.
Yeah, I noticed but I don't know why the CEO chose me though. Mirabel said. It's because you are blessed my dear. You are blessed. You father should have named you Blessing. Jemima said as they started walking home.
Immediately Mirabel heard "Father" her mood changed and Jemima noticed it immediately.
Did I say something wrong? Jemima asked Mirabel. No, you didn't. Mirabel replied. Is your father late? Jemima asked.
I don't know. Mirabel replied. You don't know? How don't you know? Jemima asked.
Look, you ask too much questions. I don't know is that I don't know. I don't know who my father is, I have never met or saw him before. I don't know what he looks like. Mirabel burst out.
I am really sorry about that. Jemima replied.
I didn't mean to get you angry Love. Jemima said. It's okay. I will be going home home. Mirabel said as she stopped a bike.
She left Jemima on the road and went home on Bike.
On reaching home she saw that her roommate's boyfriend was still around. The boy literally tried to take advantage of her last night.
Esther I thought you said he was leaving today? Mirabel asked Esther.
Something came up dear. He will still be spending the night here today. Esther said.
That was the moment Mirabel knew she couldn't spend the night at the house. She had to find somewhere else to sleep.
She can't take the r!sk of spending the night with that beast again.
