《The CEO》Chapter 8 -So mysterious
Advertisement
I waited for him to get back to work....because I heard from his assistant,Mr williams that he had gone for a meeting outside the company....
It was already past 3 in the afternoon and he wasn't back yet....I really couldn't concentrate on my work...I just kept pacing back and forth my desk ignoring Jasmine's stare...
"Who are you waiting for....you look tensed up"she asked as she watched me pace back and forth.
"That's non of your business, just continue with what you were doing" I replied without looking at her direction, I just kept biting my fingernails.
"Looks like the person you have been waiting for has arrived" she sighed.
As usual, she knew me better than anyone else, mr rogers had arrived and he went straight to his office, I went after him.
"Can we talk"i said as soon as I entered his office...He gestured politely for mr williams to leave his office and I closed the door behind him as soon as he left
"You are already talking"He replied as he kept arranging the files on his desk without looking at me.
"What are you up to" I asked
"What are you talking about?"
"Not too long ago you made my life almost miserable, accused me of being a slut even when I was trying my possible best to pay what I owed, you made me run all your errands and all of a sudden I heard that you paid mr donald money, not even for the damages of his car but you gave him money to buy a new car and told him to stop bothering me, you were also the one that helped me when I fainted." I made a dramatic pause as I kept hovering round his office while he kept arranging his table..."are you some sort of psychopath" I asked dramatically with my arms folded across my chest

" That's the best you could come up with....a psychopath huh?"he replied as he slammed the documents against the table making me flinch by the sound.
" You called me a slut so what's so wrong about calling you a psychopath ?"
"You seem to be getting bolder everyday...you even talk back to me now" he said as he kept moving closer to me. I felt uncomfortable and kept moving back trying to keep my distance.
" why a-re y-ou c-oming closer" I stuttered as I kept moving back.
"Well i am a psychopath and this is what psychopaths do"....He kept moving closer to me. The distance between us was so close that I could hardly breath....
" I r-eally need to go now" I finally said as I ran out of his office
Phew...I sighed as I got out of the office after closing the door behind me
"What was that for" I whispered as I held tightly unto my chest....my heart was raising fast.
I had a lot of work to do so I was sure I would be the last person to leave work that day. I had finished my work late and was about to check the offices to ensure everywhere was locked, it was compulsory for the last person who was to leave the office to check the other departments and offices if they were locked and kept in order, although we had security we still had to take extra precautions.
I stood up and started checking all the offices when I heard someone sobbing... I wasn't sure where it was coming from but it seemed like it was coming from the CEO's office ..
But why would someone be sobbing in the CEO's office??. I went into the office even if I sincerely doubted that it could be coming from his office...to my greatest surprise it was Mr rogers that was sobbing..

I really didn't know what kind of problem could make someone of his calliber cry secretly in his office....
"Mr rogers are you alright" I said as I rushed over to him, he was sitting on his chair silently sobbing.
He just pulled me by my waist and hugged me tightly, his head was laying on my tommy and I could feel his tears wet my shirt...he really looked like someone who needed a comfort zone. That was the first time I would feel bad for him... I just kept on patting his back even though I had no idea what was going on. There was this kind of mystery around him that I couldn't figure out.

Myscreth
At its core, magic is just the ability to change the laws of nature. Mason Grant's life was going just as he'd always planned. Then a knock at the door changed everything. Normally, he would have considered Professor Anklin's tale of a civilization destroyed because it had learned how to manipulate the laws of nature crazy. Of course, that was before he saw his couch resting on the ceiling. Travelling to Myscreth with the Professor, Mason discovers a world of contradictions. On a ruined world, the Myscrethian people live much like the early American settlers, yet thanks to the ability to manipulate the laws of nature there’s unlimited electricity and powered flight. As Mason begins learning to control abilities he never dreamed possible, he discovers that not all is as it seems. Even as the Myscrethian people try to rebuild their world, there are those who seek to once again unleash the power which led to its destruction. And this time it's not only Myscreth's fate that hangs in the balance, but Earth's as well. Author's Note: This novel is now complete.

Digital Immigrant
This is the story of how James Allen Quick and Sarah Lynn Abernathy died. By 'died', I mean that their hearts stopped, their brains ceased sending electrical impulses, and all other physical functions terminated. Immediately after which, their bodies were placed into an industrial furnace, reduced to ash, and the ash was spread about in one of the last forest reserves in North America. As ash-spreading locations go, this ranked third. First and second places were, of course, a person’s favorite athletic team’s playing field and the sea. Or rather, I should say that this is how the story begins. You see, it’s what came after that is so interesting.
