Why deceive me??

Damon, sitting on a swivel chair in his office, typing frantically, was disturbed by the sound of a woman's heels clicking. He was up his head from the computer to see who dared disturb him when he sees his secretary standing in front of him,

smiling.

"Good morning sir," She said politely, not a trace of flirting on it.

"Good morning, what do you want?" He asked

She frowned. Why doesn't he just act delightful for once? She regained her confidence virtually immediately and grinned professionally.

"You have a conference meeting in the next hour. Just wanted to prompt you." She said.

"Oh, that. I forgot. Have you completed the memos I gave you to sign" He asked

She stepped forward with some files in her hands. "Yes sir."

"Let me have them" he ordered.

She stretched her hand to give him the files and he received them. He went through it, without bothering to offer her a seat. He nods consistently and shrugged.

"I'll go through this and get back to you. From what I'm seeing, you've done a good job." He commended and she smiled

"Thank you, sir." She said.,

"You may leave." He said and continued typing.

"Sir, you have an appointment with Miss Sara today, sir." She said and made to leave.

"Sara, why? Who gave her the appointment?" He asked, making her stop in her tracks.

"She said she is here to communicate the ongoing project, you know." She answered, not giving him the specific answer she needed.

"Cancel the appointment. I've already concluded the ongoing project with another person in the company. Tell her her assistance is no more needed." He said. "I'm sir." She replied.

"You may leave." He said

She walked out.

His secretary was another person he would never be rude to. They've worked together for years but they still maintained the position of boss and secretary. Forty-five minutes later, he stood up, wore his jacket, and strode off to the conference gallery.

"Thanks for the food. It was delicious" Ronnie said gratefully.

She had just eaten a very sumptuous meal, she thought she could barely move. Katie just gazed in eyesore at how she ate.

"That's not how I eat. You eat like a lowlife."Katie said and Ronnie frowned.

"What do you mean lowlife? I didn't come here to get insulted." Ronnie said.

"Nah, you have to eat with poise. I didn't mean to insult you." Katie said and Ronnie just rolled her eyes. "Let's just be practical, if you eat like that, you'd get caught so easily. Eat like you're uninterested in the food." "How can I eat like I'm uninterested in the food when I'm interested in the food?" Ronnie asked, confused.

"I don't know. Just don't eat the way you do." Katke said, shrugging her shoulders.

The lectures went on for a few hours more.

"This is my father right here," Katie said, showing Ronnie a picture on her phone.

"He looks too young to be your father," Ronnie commented.

"No stupid, that's my brother. The one in the suit is my old man."Katie said frowning.

"Ok," Ronnie said.

"Although, you don't have to worry about my dad. He barely has time to see me as he's always preoccupied with work. He leaves the house before I get up from bed." She assured.

"I also want to ask a question," Ronnie said.

"Go on, as long as it's not something irrelevant." Katie permitted

"Who is Zara and why are you so hard on her?" Ronnie asked.

"Jeez of all people to ask me about, why did you choose to go for Zara." Katie lamented. "Well, she's my maid and can be so intense at times. She annoys every bone in my body. Well, it's your choice if you want to be nice to her only, just don't get caught." Katie said

"Wait, I thought I was just gonna get to love with your guy?"Ronnie asked.

"Yeah, you'll live with him, but in the meantime, you'll be living here, as me." Katie replied.

"Here? Won't someone spot that I'm not the real Katie, besides, my hair is way longer than yours."Ronnie stated

"Omg, are you also stupid? You're going to be wearing a wig dear." Katie said, looking at Ronnie with pity "What?" Ronnie asked.

"You're weird. I just dear for you."Katie said. "I just hope I'm not making a mistake."

"You're not. I'll do my very best not to get caught and do a good job " Ronnie assured her.

Katie clicked her tongue in disapproval. "Katie doesn't try, she does it."

Ronnie rephrased her words. "I'll do my best not to get caught, I mean."

"Yeah, that's nice. I'm traveling tomorrow." Katie announced.

"What?"Ronnie asked wide-eyed.

"I said, I'm traveling. Or you're also deaf aside from being stupid." Katie said irritated. She hated repeating her words. "One thing you need to know about me is that I despise saying things twice. So you come here tomorrow to start your job" "Isn't that too soon? I haven't even gotten ready." Ronnie said meekly.

"There's nothing to prepare about. Just get your ass up here and if anyone asks you anything, just ignore them. Understood?" Katie was asked.

"Yeah, but my mum." Ronnie began.

"Not to worry about your old woman, I've already sent someone that's gonna be with you at all times to assist her. You don't have to worry. I'm smart, aren't I?" Katie smiled to herself. "Thank you," Ronnie muttered.

By the time Ronnie arrived home, her mum was sitting down, watching her favorite channel.

"Oh, you're back." Bianca beamed with joy on seeing her.

"Yes, mum." She said.

"How was it, did get the job?" She asked curiously.

"Yes ma'am." She said.

"Thanks for the maid. She was sweet. I understand you are going to get busy these coming days. I appreciate." Bianca said.

Ronnie knew it was Katie who sent them there with her name. She smiled at her mother and went to sit.

"Hey, where are going?"Bianca asked, stopping Ronnie from moving any further.

"To watch tv, of course." Ronnie defended.

"No you don't, the doctor had called me like a thousand times asking of you. You want to stand him up on the date?" Bianca asked fiercely.

At that, Ronnie remembered she was supposed to have a date with him today and rushed off to change.

"Sh*t, sh*t. Why didn't you think of it?" She scolded herself.

At that moment, her phone rang.

"Hello, are you planning to make me wait at your house for long?"Daniel's voice echoed through the phone and her head.

Just how did he know her house??
