Chapter 29
- It was horrible. If Alexis thought Mr. Jerkface was mean that first day, she found out later what a devil he was. He'd explained to her what she needed to do. Get him coffee first thing in the morning, black no sugar, inform him of the day's appointments, remind him when it was time for lunch, and time to leave the office, get his lunch, go on errands when he needed her to. All that on top of her job and she'd thought that for someone so proud, his schedule was simple. Until the next morning.
- She'd arrived early so she could make his coffee but he was already there and he'd taken pleasure in telling her off about the importance of arriving at the office earlier than the boss. His face was a mask of anger and irritation but his eyes danced with humor clearly enjoying torturing her. That was just the beginning. Every time she made him a cup of coffee he'd claim something was wrong with it then tell her to make another cup. By midmorning, she'd made at least ten cups. All rejected. Pissed at him, she'd brought the whole coffee maker, beans and sugar and told him to make one that was perfect for himself. He was damn lucky she hadn't thrown the machine at his head.
- Then he'd started with his schedule. He'd decide to have a meeting at noon, then change it to the afternoon and when his client arrived at said afternoon, he'd ask her why she changed the meeting. Even though he was the one who'd told her to do so. As if that wasn't enough, he'd make her apologize to his clients for messing up with their schedule and wasting their time. Alexis had smiled meekly, apologized then left the conference room, bristling with anger. She wanted to punch him but that would definitely make her lose her job and she wasn't about to prove Jayden right. That little shit. This was all his fault. He'd dared her to hold the job for a whole month after she'd gone home complaining about how awful her boss was. Now she was stuck with that idiot who was determined to make her life hell. Dammit. She had to find a way out without losing the bet.
