The Scheme
The Scheme
ENTRY 17.4 *** HAILEE I glanced at my wristwatch and thought if Scott was already inside his company—his company since he had already taken over grandpa’s position. I scoffed and shook my head. Even my grandparents don’t like me. And the same reason with Scott. It’s because mom married a poor guy. If they hate me, so do I. And to Scott… it’s was all a façade. Yes, he’s charming, and I admit I desired to be touched or kissed by him. But I know that it’s impossible since he is my uncle. All I wanted was to seek revenge. If Scott took my bait, I could use it to take him down—all the Fitzgerald family into humiliation. So, I will hold back my grudges as long as I can. Then once I seek the closes opportunity, I will take action. Soon as I walked towards the entrance, the guard looked for my identification card, and I gave it to him. There were a lot of people on the inside, especially in the lobby, those individuals like me who had an interview today. “You may enter, ma’am,” the guard uttered, making me walk inside, and approached the empty seat next to the blonde girl that wears an all-black attire. I pressed my lips. I would definitely fire this lady next to me if I were the boss. Why would she wear an all-black suit? Not unless she attended a funeral. I shrug and just ignore her. I scrolled down to my phone and chatted with Rona for a few minutes. I stopped when I heard murmurs. I frowned. I was about to ask the lady beside me when she turned to me and said, “Scott has arrived,” and she giggled. My eyes widened, and my body cells woke up. I formed a sly smirk on my lips. “Uhm, is he the one who will interview us?” I asked, okay, I’ve got such a thick face. The lady in black nodded. “Yeah. That’s what I’ve heard. Honestly, I came here because of him.
How about you?” she asked. She was feeling close. I smiled. “I badly needed a job,” I replied. The woman nodded. “That’s great. What course did you take up in college? Business Ad? Secretarial—” “Engineering,” I cut off and flashed a smile at her. I stood up and grabbed my bag. “Anyway, my line is still long, so I’ll just go to the bathroom,” I said, and she nodded. “See you,” she said and smiled. I smiled back and turned away from the lobby. Soon as I walked to the hallway towards the private elevator, I roamed my eyes to check the area. In relief, the coast is clear. I smirked as I rushed in front of the private elevator. My heart thumped fast because of exaggeration and fear. If the guard sees me here, I’ll be doomed. And if it were Scott, I’d die. But there’s no way that I let him do it. I’m not afraid of Scott. If he dislikes me and does not accept me as his niece, I’d better do crazy things like this. Huh, I will make him change his mind even if risking my shame by stripping naked in front of him. I can do anything if I am determined. I could even pleasure myself if I wanted to. So, I’m confident that I can do this. I know it will not be that easy, but I will do my best to fulfill my operation in seducing Scott Fitzgerald. It’s forbidden, but I wanted revenge. So, fighting, self. I dared to open the elevator button since no one was using it—means to say, Scott had already arrived at the top floor. However, how come I didn’t see him earlier? Or did I just got drawn by chatting with Rona? Whatever, I shook my head and gasped when the elevator opened. “Yes,” I mumbled and got inside. Before pushing the button inside, I peek outside, and the coast is still evident. I stood at the center and waited for the elevator to stop. Well, I memorize Scott’s office, and it is on the last floor. I took a deep breath as the number on the small screen was getting higher and higher. I puffed into
the air to lessen my nervousness. This is it, Hailee, there’s no turning back, I cheered to myself. After a few minutes, the elevator stops. I composed myself and waited for the elevator to open. “You got this, Hay,” I whispered. Soon as the elevator opened, I sighed in relief. And congratulate me for being so lucky at the moment. Well, it’s still early. And maybe Scott came up here alone. The idea of it made me smile. It’s easy to work on if he’s alone.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
