The morning sun spilled through Jessica's bedroom window, signaling the start of a new day. It had been two weeks since she decided to take a gap year from college, and she couldn't shake the feeling of anticipation mixed with a touch of restlessness. She lay in bed, scrolling through her phone, hoping for a response from one of the companies she had applied to for an internship. She could smell her mum's signature breakfast smell but she couldn't bring herself to get out of bed even though her stomach was calling for breakfast. The anxiety from waiting was eating her up.
'Hey sis, James is here to pick me up,' her sister peaked into her room fully dressed for school. It was the last day of Adrianna's final exams in high school.
'Good luck. Say hi to James for me' Jessica called back to Adrianna.
Just as she was about to give up on her phone's incessant silence, a notification popped up. Her heart raced as she opened the email. The subject line read, "Regarding Your Application." With bated breath, she read the content, her eyes widening with excitement. It wasn't an internship offer, but something even better-a chance to interview for the position of Alexander Stone's assistant at StoneCorp Industries.
Jumping out of bed, she raced down the stairs to break the news to her mum. They both jumped in excitement. It has been two weeks since she has been home after taking her gap year and she kept getting declined at several companies because she was still a college student or because there was no placement for her. This was an opportunity she couldn't miss. Determination fueled her as she got ready for the interview the next day. She wanted to make a powerful impression, to show them that she was more than capable of handling the position regardless of whether she was a college student or not. That night, Jessica, her mum, and Adrianna celebrated the news, and the conclusion of Adrianna's final exams. Jessica went to bed early in excitement for the next day.
Jessica had heard whispers about Alexander, a man who commanded respect and admiration in equal measure. His success story was legendary, as a young billionaire entrepreneur who took up his family legacy from a young age. Determined to make the most of her internship, she silently hoped she got the job as she dozed off.
The next day, after a quick shower, Jessica stood before her closet, contemplating what to wear. She settled on a knee-length, navy blue pencil dress that hugged her figure perfectly, exuding professionalism and confidence. The dress had a subtle yet elegant silver zipper running down the back, adding a touch of sophistication. She paired it with sleek black heels that accentuated her legs, giving her a boost of height and poise. In front of her vanity mirror, Jessica applied a light layer of makeup. Soft, natural tones emphasized her best features, and her eyes sparkled with a hint of excitement. She wanted to look composed yet approachable, someone who could seamlessly fit into Alexander's professional environment.
Jessica stepped into the lobby of StoneCorp Industries, her heart pounding with nervous energy. The elegant surroundings exuded success and grandeur, and the employees also exuded confidence as they bustled about their daily tasks.
One of the attendants noticed her and approached with a warm smile. "Good morning. Can I help you?" she asked politely.
"I'm here for an interview with Mr. Alexander Stone," Jessica replied, trying to steady her voice.
The attendant nodded and checked her appointment in the system. "Ah, yes. Ms. Turner, please follow me. I'll take you to Mr. Stone's office."
As they walked through the halls, Jessica couldn't help but marvel at the grandeur of the building. Everything looked luxurious, reflecting the success of the company and its young CEO.
Finally, they reached a set of imposing wooden doors. The attendant knocked lightly before announcing, "Mr. Stone, Ms. Turner is here for her interview."
"Come in," Alexander's voice called from within.
Jessica took a deep breath and stepped into the office. Her eyes immediately locked with Alexander's, and for a moment, time seemed to stand still. He was exactly as she imagined, a hot, young CEO from generational wealth, with striking blue eyes that seemed to hold a thousand stories.
Trying to maintain her composure, Jessica greeted him with a confident smile. "Good morning, Mr. Stone."
Alexander looked up from his work, his piercing blue eyes meeting hers. There was a momentary pause as he studied her, and Jessica felt her heart race under his gaze. "Ah, yes, Jessica Turner," he said with a faint smile. "Please, have a seat."
Alexander's gaze lingered on her for a moment, subtly checking her out, impressed by her poise and confidence. "Good morning, Ms. Turner," he replied, his voice carrying a hint of intrigue. "Please, have a seat."
As they began the interview, the initial tension gradually eased, replaced by a growing sense of connection. Alexander noticed the spark in Jessica's eyes, and he was drawn to her determination and ambition.
"Why did you decide to take a gap year from college?" Alexander asked, genuinely curious.
Jessica took a moment to collect her thoughts before answering. "I needed to help my family financially. My mum recently got laid off from her job and It's just me, my younger sister, and my mom. Taking this gap year allowed me to find work and ensure that they're taken care of while I pursue my education and also ensure my sister gets her college education like me."
Alexander's admiration for her grew as he saw the strength and responsibility in her actions. Throughout the interview, they delved into her skills, her aspirations, and how she could contribute to the company.
By the end of the meeting, Alexander had made up his mind. He extended his hand with a smile. "Welcome to StoneCorp, Ms. Turner. I'm offering you the position of my assistant."
A wave of joy washed over Jessica, and she accepted his hand firmly. "Thank you, Mr. Stone. I won't let you down."
But Alexander wasn't finished yet. "And as part of the job, you'll need to be constantly accessible and in touch. I'd like you to live in one of our hotels nearby, so we can maintain a seamless work relationship."
Jessica's heart soared at the thought of such an opportunity but the thought of leaving the home to her mum and sister alone gave her cold feet. She shook off the thought by reminding herself that she could be in college if she didn't take a gap year. She knew this was the beginning of a life-changing journey, and she was ready to face it head-on, standing tall beside the enigmatic CEO who had seen something special in her-a spark that would light the way to an unforeseen and thrilling future.
