Chapter4: HER FIRST DAY
PHOEBE's POV
Oh my God! What did I do? I couldn’t believe that I just agreed to be my boss’fake mistress for what? To annoy his ex-wife. Oh, dear Lord!
As I stood in the ladies' room, I looked in the mirror and saw myself. My lipstick had become a little smudged, so I retouched it. Oh gosh, that was embarrassing. Mr. Hudson might have noticed this, but he might’ve been ashamed to inform me, so he chose to keep quiet.
My shoulders slumped as I felt like having second thoughts. Was I making the right decision? I was vulnerable at the moment and making rushed decisions wasn’t good.
Mr. Hudson, on the other hand, was a kind man who didn’t deserve to be cheated. But, can I trust him?
I suddenly got bothered. What if he decided to take advantage of my situation? What if he came up to me and asked me in order to persuade Scarlet we were going to act like a real couple? And ask me to have sex with him? Oh, fucking no!
But Tyler was a good man and I was well aware that he wasn’t like that.
FLASHBACK
My first day of work in the company was one of the most memorable days of my life. Given my tendency to take a long time getting dressed, I had set my alarm clock to wake me up at 5:30 in the morning.
After taking a twenty-minute shower, I put on my grey pencil skirt with my white blouse, which I paired with my black heels for a polished look. As soon as I finished applying my make-up, I walked to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee.
I left my apartment at 6:45 a.m., which was already late because I was going to encounter traffic. As soon as I got into my car, I drove to my new place of employment, the Hudson Steel Industries and Manufacturing Company.
I arrived at the imposing and gorgeous structure at precisely seven o'clock. Mrs. Thorne's training session is in one hour, therefore I have one hour to prepare. I took a deep breath before getting out of my car and making my way through the doors of the building, feeling a bit nervous.
I took my time studying the interior of the structure, which included a massive chandelier hanging from the ceiling and long, comfortable couches in one of the corners. When I had finished getting everything in, I strolled over to the receptionist and introduced myself to her.
‘‘Good morning...’’ I smiled at the petite brunette woman behind the counter, and she didn't hesitate to reciprocate with a warm smile. ‘‘I am here to receive training for the post of Mr. Hudson's new personal assistant.’’
‘‘Good morning...’’ she responded back with a smile. ‘‘The waiting area is available for you to use while you await my call. I'll have to check with the CEO first for the confirmation—’’
‘‘Good morning, Amelia...’’ She was surprised for a brief minute when she was cut short by a deep voice. I tilted my head to see who was greeting her, and my eyes widened when I recognized the CEO himself, Mr. Tyler Hudson.
‘‘G-good m-morning...Sir,’’ Amelia stuttered, her gaze fixed on the boss.
Mr. Hudson made an introduction to me and I frowned, wondering why he would do that. Amelia just nodded and stood there in shock. It looked like about half of the women in this building had a thing for Mr. Hudson, so what was it about him that they liked so much?
My boss' arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me towards the elevator before I could even begin to walk to catch up with him. What exactly was going on?

TYLER's POV
While waiting for Phoebe to come back to our table, I hailed the waitress and placed an order for a whisky. She came over right away. The young lady who served the alcohol attempted to flirt with me, but I brushed her off. She even put her phone number on a piece of paper and slipped it on the table to the side.
When I winked at her, she bit her lower lip seductively, causing me to smirk and adjust my pants. I took a sip of my whisky and leaned back on my chair thinking about how I was supposed to act at the party with Phoebe being my girlfriend.
As Phoebe's face flashed over my memory, I couldn't help but think back to her first day on the job at the company.
FLASHBACK
The reason why I didn't want to go to work today was due to the fact that my new assistant was someone I knew I would despise working with. It was true that I had worked with individuals I didn't care for, but they had never spoken to me in the same way Miss Stone did.
Actually, no one had ever talked to me in that manner before, with the exception of my wife and my parents, of course, but that's a very different story. They were my family. But wait! I was the boss here, not her.
The peculiar sensation that came down from my lower body made me squeeze my eyes shut even more tightly than usual. I grumbled because I was feeling so damn good.
My eyes snapped open, and when I slightly sat up on the bed, I was startled. Scarlet was in between my legs, her mouth wrapped around my c0ck.
Fuck!
This was what I liked about my wife. She always makes me feel good in the early morning before I go to work. Her mouth felt like heaven.
‘‘Scarlet…’’ When she heard my hoarse voice, she raised her eyes to mine, a dreamy expression on her face.
‘‘Good morning, honey...’’ She licked me once more before crawling up and kissing my lips, positioning herself on top of me.
‘‘Wow, honey, what a fantastic way to get me out of bed in the morning...’’ I groaned as my hands found her hips and guided her to ride me. She slowly slid down on my c0ck and started to move. ‘‘Oh…fuck!’’
I couldn't stop myself from grabbing her t!ts with both of my hands and kneading them tenderly as they bounced while riding me.
Scarlet sped up the pace, and I didn't think I'd be able to keep up with her any longer. It was enjoyable to watch her please me like this, but the desire inside me only prompted me to the thought of thrusting into her, hard and quick.
I sat up against the headboard and grabbed her ass cheeks before pulling her up and slamming her back down to meet my thrust.
‘‘Ooohh… Tyler! Fuck! You're feeling so fucking good! You’re so big! Fuck fuck fuck!’’ she let out a loud moan while I buried my face in her breast, inhaling her sweet scent. My deep and hard thrust became even more rapid. ‘‘Oh my God! Tyler!’’
When we hit our climax together, I sucked her n!pple hard, while she tightened her grip on my shoulder, shaking and screaming my name.
I kissed her on the forehead as I hoisted her up and pulled my c0ck out from under her. ‘‘I have to get to work, honey…’’ As soon as she started to argue, I sprang out of bed and went to the bathroom, got dressed, and ate some breakfast that the maid had prepared for me because Scarlet had gone back to sleep. I kissed her goodbye and left for work.
The Hudson Steel and Manufacturing Industries building was just approximately fifteen minutes away from my house. As I made my way through the front door, my employees greeted me and I couldn’t help but be proud of what I had accomplished.
Although I didn't start the company from zero, I was responsible for increasing our profits and bringing in new clients to the company. As a result, I was still pleased with myself.
Despite the fact that my friends Liam Walker and Hans Wood started their own businesses from the ground up and were successful, I was smarter than them since I already owned a number of other businesses that I had acquired and improved.
‘‘Good morning, Mr. Hudson…’’ the doorman greeted me and I gave him a slight nod as I walked past him and finally entered the building.
As I was making my way to my private elevator, someone caught my eye, and it turned out to be none other than Miss Phoebe Stone, my freshly recruited personal assistant, of course. I was going to turn my back on her when I noticed Max was gazing at her. That's when I realized that I needed to take action immediately.
I returned to the receptionist area, where Miss Stone was standing, and greeted the woman behind the counter. ‘‘Good morning, Amelia...’’ Thank goodness she wore a name tag; else, I wouldn't have known who she was.
‘‘G-good m-morning, Mr. Hudson...’’ She stuttered, her gaze falling to her hands, which were fumbling with the hem of her blouse. It was, on the other hand, not out of the ordinary. Despite the fact that they were aware of my marital status, they continue to flirt with me.
‘‘Amelia… this is Miss Stone, and she will be my new assistant, so please keep her face in mind,’’ I told her, to which she responded with a nod. ‘‘Miss Stone, do you mind if we leave?’’ I couldn’t believe I was about to do this.
My arm was hooked around Miss Stone's waist before she could say anything, and I was pulling her towards my private elevator. At the very least, I had a feeling that Max was keeping an eye on us, and I was confident that he would not dare to meddle with Miss Stone if he suspected that I was associated with her in any way.
The moment we entered the elevator, I immediately withdrew my arm. However, it was at this point that my tigress assistant blew up.
‘‘What are you thinking? Why would you put your arm around my waist and drag me here in the elevator? I thought you didn’t like me? What the hell is your problem?’’
Man…this girl was a nag, I almost wanted to press my hand on her mouth to cover it. She’s so damn loud.
‘‘First and foremost, Miss Stone, I'd like to remind you that you should never, ever speak to me in that manner again. Second, you should never raise your voice in front of me, and the third is...’’ I exhaled and placed my palm on my forehead, trying to calm myself down. ‘‘I am in no way interested in you in that way, so you can continue to daydream!’’
‘‘Then why did you drag me here—-’’
‘‘Fourth, please refrain from interrupting me while I am speaking. And the only reason I did what I did is because I noticed Max Pain staring at you—-’’
‘‘Max Pain? Isn’t that from a video game?’’
‘‘No… His is spelled as P.a.i.n., not a P.a.y.n.e., And as I was saying…wait! You interrupted me again!’’
‘‘Oh, sorry…’’ she bit her lip and gave me a peace sign. Damn!
I sighed as I continued. ‘‘So… as I was saying, Max was looking at you and he has a reputation around here to fuck all women and then leaving them. I don’t want to see you crying in my own office. I want my PA to be dedicated to her work, understand?’’ I explained, and she nodded.
Several of my staff have resigned as a result of Max's actions, but I have refused to terminate him because he was so good at his job. Besides, it's their personal problem, so why should I get involved?
I didn't want to have to continually change them, but this time it was my personal assistant who was involved. ‘‘Miss Stone, you need to be thanking me right now. I'm sure you have no idea how much danger you would have been in if I hadn't come to your rescue...’’ The last sentence made me chuckle.
‘‘All well, then… thank you...’’ Finally, this woman realized what she needed to do.
‘‘I mean like a lot of trouble that it won’t be able to get you to sleep…’’ I warned her and her eyes widened as if she suddenly felt scared. It wasn’t my intention to scare her; I was simply giving her a heads-up on what was about to happen.
‘‘Okay…I get what you mean!’’ She lifted her hands in surrender. ‘‘You’re really amazing... Thank you very much, Sir!’’
‘‘Oh… so, you're telling me right now that I'm amazing?’ Don’t worry sweetheart, you're not the first woman to tell me that.’’ I leaned in to whisper into her ear my last sentence. ‘‘Especially not inside the elevator.’’
As soon as those words left my mouth, her head snapped up to mine with wide eyes and I stepped out of the elevator with a smirk on my face, leaving her dumbfounded.
