The Mafia And The HR Chapter Thirteen
Xena Remington“So I am wrapping up for the day. Do you want me to do anything else for you?” I peeped into Axel’s office for a minute before I leave. I always do this even though he has told me that he will call me when he needs me. But after working for Axel for over a month now and I know how busy he is as a person and he usually ends up forgetting to assign work to me if it’s not urgent. So just to be on the safe side, I pop by every day to make sure he doesn’t need my help.“Xena, come in.” he says as he closes his laptop and looks at the outfit I am wearing. He always does this. And I hate how I have started to pay more attention to how I dress because I know Axel will look at me. Today, I was wearing my crisp white shirt and a black formal skirt. It was a simple outfit but my hips are huge so I always end up getting a lot of attention in this outfit.“So did you find out anything?” He says referring to the task he gave me. I had to find out who is embezzling money, but he thin

Xena Remington “Hey! I am here. In your closet.” I yell as I stare at the massive walk-in closet I was in. I am so jealous. Having a walking closet has always been my dream.But for now, I think I will have to settle for a normal closet full of my clothes.I don’t even remember how any of this started. Initially, I came to Axel’s house just to bandage him up but when I saw him struggle with basic things like putting on clothes and getting ready for the day, I helped him wear his shirt, his vest and then his blazer. Before I knew it, I started picking out clothes for him every day, long after his wound had healed. For some reason, we got into a sync- where his driver would pick me up first thing in the morning to take me to his place, I would tell him about what things are going around in the

Xena Remington“Zara, you are going to feel dizzy.” I look over at Zara who was sitting in my office, swivelling on the chair in front of me like a kid.“Ha-ha, jokes on you, I already feel dizzy. I could puke right now, I feel that dizzy.” She says proudly as she holds her head.“Then stop,” I say in a bored tone.“Please you are just jealous.”“Yeah, I wish I could also feel like throwing up my lunch.” I mock her as she finally stops swivelling.“Ouch, my head hurts.” She complains as she lets her head fall on my desk.“Yeah, I wonder why,” I say, absentmindedly. Still not over what Axel did to me yesterday. “Okay, I’ve been hiding something from you,” I say nervously, not knowing how she is going to react.“What did you do?” She asks as she lifts her head up.“Axel is…. I don’t even know what to say. I don’t know how to explain.” I say shyly.I was not used to talking about such things. I became friends with Zara around the same time I started dating Jerold. I used to tell her abo

Xena Remington“Okay so, these are the list of complaints that were lodged against Norman Smith by three different female employees.” I immediately change the subject as I hand him the file named Norman Smith.“Sure. Now how about we talk about the question I asked you before you deflected with a different answer?” He asks, without skipping a beat as I finally look him in his eyes, unable to get over how huge his stature was compared to me. He wasn’t wearing his blazer so his muscular biceps were easily visible through his shirt. He had folded up his sleeves which caused a further distraction for me as I couldn’t get over his well-developed forearms.Am I the only woman who has a thing for forearms?“That- that’s just stupid.” I groan, hoping he would drop the topic but it didn’t seem like he was going to.I tripped a little near my desk as he walked towards me, making my heart race in anticipation, “Mr Lancaster… I….-“ I gasp as I feel his hands on my waist lifting me up easily as i
The Mafia And The HR Chapter Seventeen
Xena Remington My eyes stay fixated on my laptop screen as I see the name Jerold Hart on hundreds of expenditure statements, which go back up to five years. All the receipts that he had submitted were clearly fake and it was clear that he had manipulated the accounts to cover up the fact that he is pocketing all the money.Jerold is embezzling money from the Lancasters for years now.My hands were shaking as I tried to not have a panic attack. I have only seen Axel’s nice side but the Lancasters are famously known for putting a bullet into someone’s head if they were betrayed. I know for a fact that Zara’s stepfather was killed like that.I quickly run out of my office to Zara’s cubicle, I need to find her and tell her what I just found out. I know Axel warned me not to tell anyone about these things but I don’t want to be the reason behind Jerold’s death.“Zara.” I choke as I look at her with a horrified look on my face.“Xena!” She immediately stands up with a worried look on her f
The Mafia And The HR Chapter Eighteen
Xena Remington“I-I don’t think I understand.” I stutter as I try to regulate my breathing but it was difficult because this godly man is so incredibly close to me. “Well, I need something in return if I let a man live because you asked me to. We don’t usually do that here, you see.” He mocks me as that smug smirk refuses to leave his insanely attractive face.“I can’t give you anything. There is nothing that I possibly have that you don’t already have.” I tell him, I knew that he was aware of the fact. He is from the mafia and he is a billionaire. He can literally get anything, there is nothing in this world that I can offer him.“I guess that's true, well I’ll see you tomorrow. Also, I guess you’ll help Jerold’s parents with his funeral arrangements. ” I stare at him with horror as he nonchalantly mentions a man’s funeral.Unlike Jerold, his parents were amazing. I don’t know how someone who was raised by those two people turned out to be a monster. His parents would never be able
The Mafia And The HR Chapter Nineteen
Xena Remington“Hello,” I look up to see a ridiculously handsome man, looking a lot like Axel, maybe just a few years younger. They had the same facial structure and eyes, “I am Asher Lancaster.” He greets me with a radiant smile on his face.“Umm Hello, Mr Lancaster, I wasn’t expecting you,” I say, getting up from my seat and shaking his hand. I felt like a dwarf in front of him. Why are all these Lancaster men so big?“Yep, I am here to file a complaint against the CEO of this company.” He says in a deadly serious tone as we sit down.“Are we talking about your elder brother?” I ask in a confused tone, still not sure why Asher Lancaster had come here to meet me.“I am sorry, I am a very professional person. In this office, he is my boss ‘apparently’ so everyone is supposed to listen to what the ‘great’ Axel says. I was busy today and he forced me to come in. so I want to file a complaint against him. Apparently, he is the only one ‘with a life’ and we have to plan everything around
The Mafia And The HR Chapter Twenty
Xena Remington I haven’t slept in 20 hours. I’ve had 6 coffees to keep myself up as I continue trying to keep myself busy with work. Axel hasn’t come in for work today and he refuses to answer my calls when I tried to call him to ask about his whereabouts. I tried calling Jerold too, several times but I just kept hearing the same message again and again for the umpteenth time. ‘This number doesn’t exist’.You’ve got to be kidding me?Did the Lancaster’s just make Jerold disappear? Did he just cease to exist? I knew they were not going to go easy on Jerold but I did not expect Jerold to vanish entirely.This is all getting a little too crazy for me. Where is Axel? I can't handle this uncertainty anymore.“Wow, you look really tired.” Zara says in a worried tone as she enters my office, “You know Jerold is alive for sure, right? I am sorry Axel is not someone that will break a promise. Honestly, Asher would, he likes to play god with everyone.” She says as she rolls her eyes as if he
