Chapter 5 Training begins
- Mitchell's POV
- *A week later*
- I'm finally going to resume my training as a model today and I'm f**king happy as it is. I can say today is the happiest day of my life because I'm one step closer to achieving my dreams.
- I already discussed my job as the accountant of my family's company with the manager and he has managed to balance the two for me.
- I will go to work in the morning, then I'll come for training in the afternoon for just two to three hours and that will be all.
- It sounds so simple and I hope I get along with other models and trainees there.
- I got into my car and drove to my office still in my happy mood but all that happiness died down when I saw Kevin Russell in the parking lot of our company.
- I'm sure he must have been waiting for me! Doesn't he ever get tired? I just wish I could strangle him right now!
- I got down from my car and walked into the company completely ignoring him but he came to block my path.
- "What do you want now?" I asked with a sigh
- "Have you gotten tired already? Come on, it's too early for that. I haven't even started yet" he said with a smirk
- "It seems you're forgetting something here. This is my company so I can throw you out if I want to without getting questioned by anyone" I said folding my hands
- "Really? You are just an accountant, not the CEO so how will you be able to do that?" he asked with a wry smile
- "I'm not just an accountant, I'm also one of the Campbells so I obviously have the same right as the CEO. Still need more explanation?" I asked raising my brow
- "Fine! I only want to see you, that's all!" he said giving up
- "Why do you want to see me? I'm standing right in front of you so say whatever you have to say" I said rolling my eyes
- "Uhhm! Can we go out on a date?" he asked rubbing his palms together
- "A date? I don't understand what you mean by that" I said with a shrug
- "I mean a date. It's just a friendly date, there's nothing attached" he said raising his hands in surrender
- "Okay, I will think about it" I said looking away
- "Really? Thank you!" he said with a flirty smile
- "Why should I even think about it? There's nothing to think about! I don't want to go out with a cassanova, it will ruin my image" I said with my hands folded and his face fell
- "It won't ruin your image, it's just a friendly date and nothing more" he said convincingly
- "Fine! When is that going to be?"
- "Anytime you are free, I'll definitely show up"
- "O-kay. Let me check my schedule, I will get back to you" I said and turned around to leave but he stopped me
- "How will you get back to me? Will you come to meet me in my office or how?" he asked in a mocking tone
- "You're so stupid Mitchell" I thought mentally hitting my head
- "Let me have your contact then" I said stretching my phone to him
- He collected it and input his number after which he returned my phone to me.
- "You saved your number as (boyfriend) on my phone? Are you kidding me?" I asked with a scoff
- "Are we enemies then?" he asked simply
- "Really? I ought to..... Just wait and see" I said and left with a huff
- Kevin's POV
- I smiled to myself and walked back to my car driving out of the company. I don't know why but I find Mitchell amusing.
- She's just........ kind of different from other girls and I can't explain how I feel around her. And the way she tries to act tough makes her more interesting.
- Aft first, I only wanted to have a one night stand with her but now, I think I want more. What exactly do I want? I have no answer to that.
- When we were talking few minutes ago, my heart fluttered at interval and I was so nervous around her. What is this feeling?
- I looked at the other side of the road and saw Kathryn Eduardo, the popular and most beautiful model in America.
- She's got the right curves and a beautiful skin. I've seen everything that needs to be seen but I want to have a taste of it, I guess this is my chance.
- I drove my car to the other side of the road and parked carefully before going to meet her with a charming smile plastered on my face.
- "Good day miss..... Kathryn. Is there a problem?" I asked like a gentleman
- She stared at me from my head to toe and took her eyes back to my face before scoffing.
- "Did I tell you there's a problem?" she snapped
- "Oops! Sorry about that! Can I have your contact? I will love to chat you up!" I said still keeping my cool
- "I'm not interested in chatting with you so you can as well fuck off" she said fiercely
- "You know who I am right?" I asked with raised brows tucking my hands into my pocket
- "Who are you? Are you the president of this country or the world president? Well even if you are, I don't give a damn" she said sternly
- "Okay then. I want us to have a one night stand, no strings attached. Just a good f**k and that's all" I said simply
- Before I could blink an eye, she gave me a thunderous slap and I stared at her in shock with my palm on my cheek.
- "Are you insane? Who do you think you are to tell me that sh*t? Do you think I'm one of those sluts you sleep around with?
- Just thank your stars that I'm in a good mood today, else you would have seen the other side of me. Imbecile!" she spat and left for a taxi immediately
- Did she just......slap me? Like, she slapped the almighty Kevin Russell? She has bitten more than she can chew and cross all limits.
- I'm going to make her pay for this and show her who the boss is. This is going to trend for a while now because people took pictures but it won't be for long. I will find something else to replace it soon.
- Kathryn's POV
- I wore my shades and got into the taxi heaving a sigh of relief. I don't know why I seem to be in a bad mood today, maybe it's because Mitchell's training will be starting today.
- I shouldn't have slapped Kevin because apart from being powerful, he's also very handsome. He's currently the most handsome guy I've seen in America.
- I placed my head on he headrest until the driver arrived at my destination. I paid him off and went in.
- I still have few hours left before the training begins. Gosh! This is so frustrating! I'm supposed to be resting today since I don't have any shoot but I can't, because of Mitchell.
- After spending two hours at the spa, I went back home to take a short nap. Few minutes before the training begins, I got into my car and drove to the company.
- When I got there, Mitchell hadn't arrived yet and a smile curved on my lips. She's late on her first day and I'm going to make a big deal out of it.
- About twenty minutes later, she came running in and stopped before me to catch her breath.
- "Good day ma'am Kathryn, I'm sorry I'm late. I got caught up with work and the traffic was much to, I'm really sorry" she said bowing repeatedly
- "You're sorry? What will your sorry do? Will it change the fact that I've been waiting for you for so long when I have lots of important things to do?" I snapped at her
- "I'm really sorry, it won't happen again. I promise"
- "Keep your promise to yourself, I'm not interested. Let's get down to business!" I stood up and started teaching her the basics of modelling
- Her skin is flawless and I think that's exactly what drew the manager to her. If I can just destroy her skin, she would no longer think of becoming a model.
- I guess that's the first step to take now. I need to find a cream and mix it with something. Once she uses it, her skin will be filled with spots and she won't have the chance of becoming a model.
- "So, that brings us to the end of today's class. Make sure you finish the work I gave to you, I will be checking it tomorrow" I said picking up my bag
- "Thanks for the teaching, I learnt a lot" she said with a smile
- I just wish I could wipe that ugly smile off her face, she just manages to irritate me all the time.
- Chris POV
- It's been a week since I last saw Mr Williams and I'm beginning to think I might not see him again. I should give him a call and tell him about the money before it's too late.
- I went to the phone booth nearby and dialed the number on his card.
- "Good day! Who am I speaking with please?" a lady asked from the other end
- "I want to speak with Mr Williams" I said politely
- "Yes, I know you want to speak with him but you have to tell me who you are so I can pass it to him" she said
- "I'm Chris, just tell him that"
- "Okay, hold on!.......... He will be speaking to you now" she said and passed the phone to him
- "Good day sir" I greeted
- "Good day Chris, how are you doing?"
- "I'm fine sir" I answered with a smile
- "So....why did you call? Did you just call to say hi?"
- "Not really sir! I thought we will meet again soon but I haven't seen you for a while now so I decided to call.
- You made a mistake when you wanted to give me the money. You gave me $5000 instead of $50.
- I've kept it safely so when you come, I will return the rest to you. That's just what I wanted telling you" I explained
- "Chris, you know you're so funny! Why would I make a mistake with the money? I know you lost $50 but I decided to give you more because you are like a son to me. Just use the money to buy the necessary things you need, I will see you soon" he said leaving me gobsmacked
- "S.....sir" I stuttered when I finally found my tongue
- "I'm extremely busy right now, I will call you some other time and hopefully, we will meet soon. Take care" he said and hanged up
- The $5000 is for me? Oh my goodness! I think I'm in paradise already. How can he give me a whole $5000 without doing anything for him?
- I really don't know how to take this! It's a good news but I can't help but feel disturbed. What if I spend the money and he asks for it later on?
- I don't trust those rich people one bit. Although it looks like Mr Williams is different from them, I still can't help but panic.
- I don't think I want to spend that money. I'm just going to keep it for now. Maybe I can use it for my wedding when I decide to get married.
- I left the phone booth and returned to work immediately. Lunch time will soon be over and I haven't eaten yet.
- What am I going to eat? There are no leftovers and I don't have any money on me. I didn't even eat anything this morning, I'm so hungry.
- Is this how I'm going to continue living my life? I really need to do something about myself before it's too late.
