Chapter 13: Mrs. Jones...?
Kyle drove Clarissa to school but he couldn't help notice the perfume that Mrs. Jones had on.
Mrs. Jones didn't bother gaging in conversation with him, keeping her eyes focused on the road as she hummed the song playing on the radio.
Kyle liked the silce because this was the first time he was with Mrs. Jones in such a setting.
He noticed her initial surprise that the car belonged to him but she didn't say anything more than that.
It was clear that he had come up in a conversation with her husband but she didn't pry.
Clarissa arrived at school and Kyle made sure she got in safely by escorting her to the door.
He returned to the car and saw Mrs. Jones' eyes fixed on him.
"Is something wrong?" Kyle questioned, feeling a bit uneasy.
" Nothing, I never knew you were this good with kids," Mrs. Jones said, finally showing interest in a conversation.
" Ah, hav't you be told not to judge a book by its cover?" Kyle said, revving up the gine.
"Not wh the book is a chapter long," Mrs. Jones responded.
"Did you just say I'm a chapter long? That's not very nice…" Kyle retorted but all this solicited from her was a giggle.
" I didn't mean it like that! You are always so gloomy, I didn't know you could have such a side to you," She said while laughing.
"You do know you're making this worse, right?" Kyle shook his head to exaggerate his disbelief and this only made her giggle evolve into full-on laughter.
The ice had be brok and this allowed him to ask the important question.
" Do you want to tell me where we're going?" Kyle asked and that was wh she realized that he had no information regarding where she worked.
"I'm so sorry, it is the T Cter," She revealed.
"T Cter? Isn't that where athletes work out?" Kyle knew that this was a prestigious ctre ev if he wasn't one to work out himself.
" That is right, I'm an instructor there and that's why we have be able to keep our head afloat wh a certain someone didn't pay their rt on time," She said, clearly aiming a jab at Kyle.
" Hahaha! That's my bad!" Kyle conceded.
Luckily, the cter wasn't far from the school so it took only a few minutes for them to arrive there.
Kyle kept the conversation appropriate, he didn't try to uncover any information that didn't concern him.
He stopped at the Cter and Mrs. Jones stepped out before turning back at him but unfortunately for Kyle, she caught him looking at her buttocks.
She didn't think anything of this, he was a man after all, there was no way he would be able to keep his eyes off them without ev stealing a glance.
Kyle noticed this and quickly adjusted his gaze to look at her but those eyes made him uneasy.
"Is there a problem?" Kyle asked.
"What? Ar't you going to walk me too?" Mrs. Jones said but this was what confused Kyle, he didn't know if she was flirting or just messing with him.
Considering this was their first real interaction, he had no way to gauge this and this gave her the befit of the doubt. She had to be playing, right?
"You're a big girl, I'm sure you will be fine. Tell your husband I brought you here safely or he will kick my ass," Kyle teased before driving off, he didn't want to be too casual with her and this was why he explicitly mtioned her husband in this conversation to remind her that she was married.
Kyle shook off the tire interaction despite her perfume still lingering in his car, it did have a nice sct but his next destination was the Agcy.
-
Isabella arrived early as usual, she was usually the first to arrive ev though she didn't need to.
However, she was big on leading by example because if the boss could do something like that th the employees had no choice but to follow suit.
Isabella oped up the Agcy as she had laid off a few of her staff; she realized that most of the work they were doing was redundant.
She also needed to show Kyle that she could manage his finances and needed to show returns as soon as possible or he might change his mind in terms of managemt.
Kyle gave her freedom and she was eager to show she was the right person for the job.
She knew that Kyle would expect results soon and there was no way she would take this second change for granted.
She already had a few talts willing to sign with the agcy but this had something to do with their place in the rankings. It had bumped up considerably and upcoming talts used this opportunity to list with them while their fees were still low.
It was only a matter of time before it would increase to show their new ranking.
But there was one employee who always came on time and that was her assistant, Carly.
"Good morning~" Carly sang. Once upon a time, she thought her days here were numbers but there was something freeing that came with knowing you wer't about to lose your job.
Carly came in barely t minutes after Isabella and Isabella was already hard at work.
"Get in here Carly!" Isabella shouted from her office, forcing the young girl to rush to the office.
"Are you okay?" Carly asked the momt she saw her but Isabella simply gestured for her to come closer which Carly did.
"What's going on ma'am?" Carl questioned but her question was answered the momt her eyes came in contact with the computer.
"What is this…?" Carly questioned, she couldn't believe her eyes.
The applications they received easily tered into the hundreds, it was unbelievable that this happed in just a day. This was something that they had never expericed before.
"I bet you regret laying off those people now, don't you?" Carly said but Isabella was too excited by these numbers to give a damn about that.
She could easily hire more people because, with these numbers, the top was her only destination.
