Chapter 24: RICHARD
"Unbelievable! To think there was ever a time when I considered you a mentor. God! I’m such an idiot!" she stormed like the mad girl I knew she was, pushing past Vera.
"I’m so sorry Sir, I tried to stop her," Vera said.
"It’s alright Vera, you can leave. I will attend to her" I said, certain that this girl before me in her pissed state would give even Gerald and Tony a really tough time, not to talk of her.
But wait, did she just say, she once considered me a mentor?
Tossing those words aside and whatever implication it meant,
"Scream all you want, but you have no right to barge in here uninvited" I said
as soon as Vera left.
"And what, you expect me to just sit in there while you mess around with a girl whom you were supposed to be interviewing?!" Sofia fumed.
By God, she was really getting on my nerves, but I wasn’t going to give her that satisfaction of thinking that she was getting under my skin.
"Hey watch your mouth, what I do and whom I do it with is none of your concern... unless you wish to be the who" I replied with cultivated restraint, flashing her a grin.
I watched her face turn redder with rage, exactly what I was aiming for, get under her skin before she does mine.
"In your dreams. I will have you know that not everyone worships the ground you walk on or falls head over heels for those basic looks you call charm" she scoffed.
