Chapter 32
It was sunrise already and Sofia was not ready to stand up from her bed.
After dinner with her sister last night and their plans, They both slept in late.
A soft knock was placed on her door and she groaned in annoyance.
"What!" She yelled as she turned on the bed.
"Get your ass up and shower, I need to get to work, " Alice said from the other side of the door.
"But I just want to sleep," Sofia whined.
"Hurry, you know I don't tolerate lateness," Alice replied before she walked away.
The room in which she slept in was specifically for her. It had everything she needed including her clothes and accessories.
Sofia lazily stood up from the bed, The toilet seemed distant from her but she gathered all the early morning strength she could accumulate and walked to the door.
She entered the bathroom and showered as fast as she could, in a matter of five minutes she was done. She came out of the bathroom and searched for her best cloth in the closest. Sofia felt happy so she felt the need to accessories to her heart's content. After all, victory was about to be given to her in her palms.
Sofia happily left the room to go join Alice at the dining table.
"Somebody looks today, " Alice remarked as she served the scrambled eggs on the plate.
"Why wouldn't I be happy when victory is in front of me?" She asked as she settled in the chair.
It was already seven thirty in the morning, and all staff including Alice herself had to resume work by Eight in the morning.
Alice filled herself with her own food before she gulped it down with some pineapple juice.
Sofia gracefully finished hers and helped put the plates in the kitchen, before she walked to her car.
She would have preferred to go in her sister's car. But she wasn't sure if she would come back with her so she just drove her car.
Alice drove her car out of the building, followed behind Sofia.
They got to Alice's company by Eight on the dot. When some of the workers sighted her car from far they immediately scurried into the building as fast as they could.
Alice parked in the lot, at a spot that was hers personally.
She Got down from the car and waited for Sofia to park her car so they could go Inside together.
Apparently, it was only a two minutes wait as Sofia emerged from the back and tapped.
"Let's go inside," Sofia said.
They strode together inside the glass buildings. Some workers that were roaming downstairs stopped and greeted her with a slight bow of the head.
They both headed to Alice's personal elevator and pressed the last floor's button. The seventh floor before the penthouse. Alice only stayed there when she had important work to do.
The doors to the elevator finally opened up and they stepped out. Everybody on the floor greeted them but they ignored their greetings.
They walked into the office, it looked sparkly clean that you could almost lick the floor. Alice had already yelled at the manager in charge of the cleaning department. She warned that if he couldn't get her office sparkly clean she was going to make him clean the entire building with his tongue, She would also sack him without giving him any penny.
The poor man was poorly frightened that he cleaned up the entire place by himself.
She smiled at herself as she looked at how neat her office was.
Alice walked in and placed her bag on top of her desk before she collapsed on the chair.
Normally, you would have heard a look shriek emit from her throat as she collapsed on the chair. The amount of dust that would have come out would probably make her sneeze but nothing came out of the chair. It was almost as if they bought and replaced it with a brand brand new chair.
Alice inspected the office slowly with Sofia watching closely. Alice had not yet noticed that Ariana had not yet arrived at work.
"I'm just surprised at home this place is properly kept, No dust, No dirt just pure cleanliness," Alice said as she still surveyed the room with her eyes.
"Well, who wouldn't be scared of the great Brentwood sister? The best of all?" Sofia complemented her sister as she played with her hair.
"I'm flattered by your sweet compliments please shower your dear sister with more" She requested.
"The great master mind planner and one of the most beautiful women in the world. " Sofia said with a small laugh.
"Speaking of which, where is that little bitch?" Sofia asked and Alice frowned before she stood up.
"Lisa!" She called as she walked towards the door.
"Miss Alice!" Lisa answered as she walked to Alice's door.
"Where is Ariana? She's late again right? Did she forget the time again?!" She yelled before she tabled the door open.
Lisa lowered her head and stared at the ground.
"Ma'am She already arrived She just went out for some coffee, " she lied before she gulped down saliva.
Lisa was putting her work at stake for Ariana, If she didn't come in the next five to fifteen minutes then She was dead meat.
Ariana had suddenly grown the habit of coming to work late after breaking up with Ethan.
She needed a break from all the trauma but Alice was not ready to give her that.
"If She doesn't appear before my desk in the next twenty minutes then I'll fire both you and her!!!" Alice yelled before she banged the door closed.
"Could you believe that piece of shit! If you never asked me to give her that job I wouldn't have given that piece of rag the job. She can be so unless at times," Alice said before she retreated to her chair.
Sofia glanced at her phone, She had an appointment with someone in the next thirty minutes.
"Well, have fun with her ill be going now, I have to catch up," Sofia said before she walked out of her sister's office.
She took the elevator to the 2nd floor.
Sofia came out and walked down the staircase. Sofia felt like exercising her legs for the half an hour drive she was about to have. Sofia walked down the tiled stairs as gracefully as possible before she barged into someone. They looked at the person, Then she smiled at herself.
The lady of the hour herself, Ariana brown.
