Chapter 104
Sydney woke up due to the loud ring of her rusty alarm clock. She sprang up as she was a little frightened.
"This bitch wouldn't be the end of me." She whimpered hitting the alarm clock hardly on the head.
It stopped ringing, and she yanked off the duvet from her lower body, climbing down the bed.
She yawned widely and stretched out still feeling lazy.
"I still feel drowsy." She grumbled rubbing her eyes with her two hands.
She searched for her phone in the drawer next to her bed, and then she saw it.
She switched it on and found out it was a Saturday.
Saturdays are always not too pleasant for Sydney because she would have to stay indoors throughout the day.
It would be a boring day.
But she didn't have a choice, she had no money to take herself out and equally, she has no man in her life presently to take her out.
She switched on her wifi and her messages began to pop in.
Though they were few and that is because she isn't the social type.
Then suddenly she saw a strange message pop up.
She stood under the shower, turning it open as she reached for her soap and sponge.
She began to think of the way she was going to act when she got there.
She scrubbed her body in haste and walked out of the bathroom.
She wiped off the water from her body with her towel.
She wrapped it around her waist and walked to her closet to look for an outfit.
She ran her fingers through her scanty clothes and her eyes fell upon an old red gown.
"I've got to go shopping for sure" Sydney muttered.
"Look at you baby." She said to the gown with a huge smile on her face.
She picked out the dress and placed it on her body, walking to the front of the mirror.
She was good to go, and she walked out of her house feeling beautiful. As she walked down the hallway, her neighbours stared at her differently.
She looked exquisite.
Exquisite with her white tennis on Sydney just wanted the day to herself and having to go to the park looking that way she was happy.
She ignored their glares and kept walking till she got to the side of the road.
She waved down a taxi and the taxi stopped right in front of her.
"Where are you headed, Ma'am?" He asked.
"Golden City." She responded and he nodded.
The golden city was just close to the park and she wanted some snacks so she could have a picnic by herself at the park.
"Hop in." He told and she reached for the back door and opened it. She hopped in and he began to drive.

Jaxton sat in the living room and watched how people began to arrive for the interview.
They came in in twos and threes.
"We would be having a very large audience today. How are you going to interview all sir?" Ruby asked.
He was trying to have a new maid as the last one had tried to seduce him and he got mad at her.
"I already told you I have picked the person," Jaxton said still staring outside the door at the people who were walking in.
"But she isn't here yet, and it's past 8 am," Ruby said and Jaxton looked at her.
"I don't care. You have no right to question me okay? We can start the interview, but when she comes, we interview her and then close everything for the day." He explained and Ruby swallowed hard nodding.
"Yes sir. I would start giving numbers to them." She said and Jaxton nodded.
His assistant was beginning to develop hatred for the person whom Jaxton had chosen, someone she was yet to see.
She hated the way, Jaxton gave her so much importance.
She walked out of the living room, and Jaxton checked his wristwatch to see it was 8:25 am.
"Where are you?" He mumbled to himself as he kept staring at the gate.
Soon, he heard Ruby call in the first participant. It was a male.
He wore a blue top and blue jean trousers. Immediately Jaxton saw him, he felt tired.
"Dismissed. I hate blue." He said before the young man could speak up.
The young man walked out feeling so hurt. Ruby looked at Jaxton in disbelief but couldn't say a word, or she would lose her job.
His separation from Sydney had caused him to be super grumpy and most times he said things that did not mean anything.
Ruby called the next number '2' and a young woman walked in.
She had her hair tied in a ponytail.
She wore a very short gown that got Jaxton much angrier.
"Are you coming to work at my mansion or do you have plans of turning it into a strip club?" he asked bitterly.
"No sir..." she began but he cut her short.
"leave" he barked and she left.
The next came
"Was she trying to seduce me?" He thought looking from her head to toe.
"Good morning Mr White," She said in a seductive manner which made Jaxton almost puke.
"Stop acting like a slut. Get out." He said sharply and she shivered. She pulled down the hem of her gown as she walked out of the house.
Ruby looked at him again, this time with a shock on her face.
"Is he really serious right now?" She asked herself.
She was about to call the next person when Landon sighted who he had in mind for the job she walked in looking like a goddess.
Jaxton had plans of using this lady to make Sydney jealous he didn't know how but he just wanted to make her jealous by asking for some time apart.
He planned to make Her his escort to the grand lunch of the product the company was working on.
