“It is.”
“Fine. So be it.”
Her fists were balled up, and she started to leave. I didn’t bother hiding the fact that I was admiring her perfect peachy ass as she walked away in her tight pencil skirt, her slender legs accentuated by the heels she wore.
She suddenly spun around with fire in her green eyes. “Just so you know, I’m still fucking pissed at you for what you did. I’m only here because I have to be.”
“Well, that makes two of us. If you ever speak to me that way again, you’ll be looking for work faster than you can blink.”
“Can’t wait to help put myself out of business.” Addison mumbled.
It’s not personal, Addison.”
“Like hell it is.” She snapped.
Her attitude was starting to rub me the wrong way. We may have known each other before, but as far as I was concerned, that was more than over, and she was my employee now. So I intended to treat her like one. Meaning no more special treatment. No more temper tantrums.
“Addison.” I called out.
“Yes.” She gritted out without turning around.
“Look at me.” I commanded.
She slowly turned around with absolute fury in her eyes.
“If you’re going to work for me, you’d better be on time tomorrow. No excuses, this is your final warning.”
She stood there, chest heaving, but just glared at me. “Anything else, Mr. West.”
“Actually, yes, where’s my coffee?” I asked with no attempt at warmth toward her.
“What coffee?”
“The coffee you’re supposed to have here, before I arrived.”
I’d already had my coffee, but I felt like reminding her who was in control here. Especially if this is how she was going to act. I intended to keep her running around until she collapsed, so she didn’t have time to run that mouth of hers.
“I didn’t know– I’ll get it now.” She gritted her teeth.
“Dark roast, black.”
“Whatever you say.”
She showed up a little while later with a coffee in hand, and she put it down on my desk with a subtle look of satisfaction on her face. “Enjoy.” She said with a smug sing-song voice, as she stomped back out of my office, slamming the door behind her.
I took one sip and gagged, it was sickly sweet. It seemed she had brought me half sugar and half coffee. I gritted my teeth, fuming at her insubordination.
I dialed her phone from my office.
“Yes?” She said sweetly.
“Get in here.”
“Can’t you at least say please?” She dropped the fake sweet act.
“Now.” I snapped.
She pushed the door to my office open again. “What can I do for you now, Mr. West?”
