“At least she was a beautiful blonde that spilled coffee on you.” He smirked.





Chapter Five


Lorelei

What a way to start the morning. I couldn’t believe I spilled coffee on that guy’s suit. Oh well, he shouldn’t have been standing so close to me and he didn’t have to be so rude about it. In all the madness, I did notice how amazingly hot he was. There was something about him that sent my stomach into a flutter. He was tall, probably a little over six feet with short brown hair, sea blue eyes, perfectly shaped lips and a strong masculine jawline that sported a five o’clock shadow. God, he was probably one of the sexiest men I’d seen in a long time. He was pissed and I prayed to God that I would never see him again. I had a feeling he’d never forget me and how I spilled coffee all over his designer suit.

Walking into the building, I met Garrett, who took me up to the twelfth floor and showed me to my desk.

“Here is your desk and right across from it is Mr. Sutton’s office. Hang on a sec and let me see if he’s in there.”

I set my things down and waited.

“Hmm. He’s never this late. He should have been here by now.”

“Hello,” a friendly female voice spoke to me. “You must be Jack’s new PA.” She smiled as she extended her petite hand.

“I’m Lorelei Flynn.” I smiled as I lightly shook it.

“I’m Coco Sutton. Jack’s sister. It’s nice to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you as well. I love your name.”

“Thank you. I bet you can’t guess where it came from.” She grinned.

“I’m thinking Coco Chanel.”

“Very good. My mother was, or should I say, is obsessed with her.”

“There you are,” Garrett spoke to the man stomping down the hall. “Meet your new PA, Lorelei.”

I looked over Coco’s shoulder and froze. Oh shit. Oh shit. Oh shit. My knees began to shake.

“You!” He pointed at me.

“Again. I’m sorry.” I bit down on my bottom lip as my stomach started doing flips.

“In my office, now!” he commanded.

“What the hell, Jack?” Coco expressed.

He stormed into his office and I looked at Coco. “I may have accidentally spilled coffee on him this morning at Starbucks. I didn’t know he was my boss. Shit!”

She laughed. “Lorelei, we are going to become best friends!” She patted me on the shoulder as I walked into Jack’s office.#p#分页标题#e#

“Shut the door!” he yelled.

I gulped as I turned around and shut the door.

“Sit!” He pointed to the chair in front of his desk.

I was literally shaking as I sat down. He took a seat and folded his hands on his desk, staring at me without saying a word; just staring at me with those sea blue eyes that displayed so much anger.

“I had to go home and change because of that little mishap this morning. Are you always that clumsy?”

“I’m sorry, sir. It was an accident.” I looked down.

“Look at me when you speak.”

Okay, this guy was fucking crazy and who the hell did he think he was? He acted like I committed murder. Suddenly, rage came over me as I stood up and planted my finger on his desk.

“Maybe you shouldn’t have been standing so close to me. If you hadn’t invaded my personal space, I wouldn’t have spilled coffee on you. Like I said, it was an accident and I’m sorry. I will pay for your suit to be cleaned.”

He looked at me in shock as he leaned back in his chair. He studied me for a moment, his eyes raking over me from head to toe.

“You’re right. You will pay for the suit to be cleaned. In fact, that is your first job as my personal assistant. You are to take my suit to the cleaners down the street.”

“Yes, sir,” I calmly spoke.

“Now sit back down. I want to go over some things with you.” He reached in his desk drawer, pulled out a cellphone, and handed it to me. “This is for you. It’s not for personal use. It’s for me to get a hold of you when you’re not in the office. My number is already programmed in it. This is for business purposes only. When it rings, I expect you to answer it. If I send you a text message, you are to respond immediately. Do you understand, Miss Flynn?”

“Yes, sir. I understand.”

“Good. You will also be here at eight a.m. sharp. In fact, I would prefer you here a few minutes early and you are to be available at all times. Even after work hours.”

“But, sir—”

“No buts, Miss Flynn. You accepted this job as my personal assistant and I take that very seriously. If this is going to be a problem for you, then maybe you should reconsider.”
