He looks back at his computer screen, his fingers moving across the keypad as he types away.
Drake is a handsome man with a charming smile that makes the ladies swoon, and as I sit across from him, an idea comes to me. Maybe I can match him and Bianca together.
The last I heard, he is single, and Bianca isn’t in a serious relationship either.
I made a mental note to ask Ethan if Drake was seeing anyone.
“You are going to be on a three-month probation, and during that period, we will determine if you are a good fit or not,” Drake says, returning his attention to me.
My eyes widen in shock. “Does that mean that I got the job?”
“Yes,” there is that smile again. “Congratulations.”
“Oh my god!” I bring my fingers to my mouth in disbelief. Even though Drake is Ethan’s best friend, I still feared that I might not get the job because I know Drake is strict when it comes to his companies.
“The HR department will give you your offer letter. When you step out of my office, take the first turn to your right.”
“Thank you so much, Drake…sir,” I quickly correct.
His smile widens. “It’s okay. You can continue calling me Drake. We all go by the first names around here.”
“Thank you, Drake. I promise you won’t be disappointed.”
He responds with a nod while still smiling. I pick up my purse and head out to the HR’s office.
As I step out of Drake’s office and go to HR’s office, I feel a mix of excitement and nerves coursing through me.
This is it, the start of a new chapter in my career. I take a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart, before I knock on the door.
“Hi, I’m Jessica Martin. I was told to come here for my offer letter,” I say, trying to keep the tremor out of my voice.
The HR, a middle-aged woman, gives me a warm smile and gestures for me to take a seat while she prints the letter. I sink into the chair, my mind buzzing with anticipation.
After a few minutes, she returns with a sealed envelope, which she hands to me with a smile. “Here you go, Jessica. Congratulations on your new position.”
I accept the envelope with gratitude, my fingers trembling slightly as I tear it open. Inside, I find the offer letter detailing my role, responsibilities, and salary.
“Thank you so much,” I say, unable to contain my excitement. “I really appreciate it.”
She nods, her smile widening. “You’re welcome. An employee form has been sent to your email, and you are to fill it out and send it back within forty-eight hours. Best of luck in your new job.”
With the offer letter safely tucked away in my purse, I make my way out of the HR office, feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment.
This is just the beginning, and I’m determined to make the most of this opportunity. Checking the time, I decided to head over to the Grand Princeton to share the good news with Ethan.
When he had called me to inform me that he had recommended me to Drake for the job, I was a little scared because even though I already made up my mind to only work in advertising. I was still a little scared that I might still not get a job.
But with Ethan’s and my two best friend’s encouragement, I decided to give it a shot, and I’m glad that I did.
When I reach his office door, I knock lightly before pushing it open, finding Ethan seated behind his desk, engrossed in paperwork.
He looks up as I enter, a smile immediately lighting up his face.
“Hey, baby,” he greets, his eyes shining with warmth. He rises to his feet and comes to give me a kiss on my lips.
“How did your interview go?” he asks as he pulls away from our kiss.
I take a deep breath, trying to contain my excitement. “Well, it went well,” I say, unable to keep the grin off my face.
