That's Life

Prologue

Elias' POV
Meeting with Mr. Linseed. Done. I said and sigh in relief

Finally, I can now have my sleep. I said and turn off the lights in my office

I rest my body on the couch and went to sleep.

1 hour ago...
I heard a knock on the door making me groan. I went to the door and open it to see my best friend Nicole Anderson.

Nicole, what are you doing here? I ask her with my hoarse voice

Didn't you know? She ask me

About what? I ask her

Your personal assistant just died in a car crash. She said and my eyes widen

What?! I ask shocked

I'm serious. She said

What should I do now?! I need a new PA. I said

Don't worry, I got this. She said

Really? I ask her

Yep, Now I gotta go. She said and walks away

I close the door and sigh loudly.

I walk to the couch and sit on it.

Nicole... what are you planning? I thought

Jessica's POV
Jessica! I heard a voice call out to me

I look behind me to see my best friend Anna Higgins.

Anna! I yell and hug her

I miss you! She said and hugs me back tightly

Okay okay! That's enough. I said and she lets go of me

Just admit it, that you like my hugs. She said and I shake my head

Aww... man. She said and pout

Alright! So I heard that you need a job? She ask me and I nod

Fantastic! Since I found this flyer when I was walking. She said and hands me a flyer

I took the flyer and read it. My eyes widen.

Elias Richardson, is looking for a new PA, If you want to get hired. Please go to Richardson Industry and look for Nicole Anderson.

I jump in joy and hug Anna.

Thanks! Anna. I said

Anytime, bff! She said

Alright, now I gotta get ready. I said

Bye! She yells and I wave

I run to a building and went inside. I saw Ms. Johnson, my neighbor.

Ms. Johnson! I finally get to have a job now. I said cheerfully

That's great, Jessica! She said

It is! Now I gotta get ready. I said and went inside my apartment

I spent hours getting myself ready before going to Richardson Industry. I was so happy and nervous at the same time.

•At Richardson Industry•
Hello! I'm looking for Nicole Anderson. I said to the receptionist

Do you have an appointment with her? She ask me

No, But I heard that Elias Richardson needs a new PA. I said and hand her the flyer that Anna gave to me earlier

It says here that I should look for her. I said

Follow me, Ma'am. She said and I follow her

Ms. Anderson, someone is looking for you. The receptionist said to a platinum blonde haired woman.

Yes, you may go. The woman that I assume is Nicole said to the receptionist

The receptionist walks away.

I'm guessing that you're here for the job? She ask me and I nod

Since Elias is not here, Then... you're hired! She said

What? Already?! I ask her

Yes, now. Your salary will be... She looks through a paper

25k. She said and my eyes widen

When do I start? I ask her

Tomorrow and you will even get to see Elias. She said

Okay. I said

Yes!! I got the job. But... who could my boss be?

I never heard of Elias Richardson. All I know that the Richardsons are rich. I'll find out tomorrow.

But little do I know, my whole world will change...
