Sophia POV
I Gladly walked back to the office since DAV yeah DAV I think I like the nickname stuff already though at least he help lightened my mood cause I could tell that I looked horrible and quite pathetic when I was given that punishment ... it was like I was a five year old kid or something,it really hurt me when I realized that Ethan had to give me punishment it was normal though but he seemed to take it personal ... I walked into the office immediately the elevator dinged open leaving me to enjoy the rest of my miserable day this week .... just kept getting worse.
" And where were you , I went over to the next door office to know what was delying you and raven told me you practically left there an hour ago " he said coldly
I practically didn't know what to say so I kept mute even though I knew how much he hated me being mute but I can't practically tell him that I have been stupidly cracking jokes downstairs with his brother oh yeah step brother to be percise.
" last time I checked Sophia I told you that you talk when being talk to and you don't dare snub me ,am I right... '' he questioned I knew I had got him angry really bad right now but he seemed to be still preserving himself in an authoritative way he didn't wanna let his guard down on me .
" yes Ethan'' I replied cause I know any wrong slip of this useless tongue of mine ... I would get what was more worse than being fired ...
" And I ask for the second time where the hell did you go to when you left raven office for close to one hour ?
" I ... um...
" oh now you are stuttering , Sophia am going easy on you, I have been going practically too soft on you that you don't know who you are working with right...
" I Apologise Etha... '' before I complete my statement he shut me off immeditely..
" that's sir to you ... no more calling me by my name and by tommorow you are moving to the second floor and must report to me every two hours before and after work .. did you grasp what I just said ?
" yes ,sir '' I said it doesn't have to be said cause it was obvious that I was shaking ..but what does he mean when he said he was going easy on me ...he was never easy on me or is there a more worst side of him than what I already experienced ,if so then am so done for but I can hold up ... yeah I need my money ..
After the day work Ethan practically called in workers who are responsible for moving stuff they moved the few things I had to the second floor of the building and helped me set up my office ,in a weird way I was kinda happy I have privacy now at least I could have peace of mind without his wandering eyes on me not after I got to his bad record now .
"what the fuck you mean he took you down to the second floor that's hilarious " DAVID voice echoed he so much enjoyed teasing me and this was a great opportunity he couldn't miss ... I practically invited him home when he drove back from work and we were having a little chat over dinner ..
" yeah and I was like Ethan I apologise"
" wait he let's you call him Ethan ... woah that's strange my bro never let's his workers call him Ethan ... seems like you got at his soft side huh ...but what do call him now '' he said keenly staring at me but I knew he just wanted me to say the word so he can burst out laughing again..
" well he said I should address him as sir something that he was...'' before I could finish DAV was already rolling on my couch tears were practically falling from his eyes now... i didn't find what I was saying funny but he did which pissed me off a little ...but I still liked it he really was normal unlike Ethan who is always mean and all of that ... I never really still believed that they were like siblings...
" stop staring soph ,you look like a freak with that stare of yours ...!
he snapped me out of my thought " um...DAV can I ask you something personal ?
" c'mon ask away I've not been to jail before so there's nothing huge to hide " he said giving me his whole attention.
" um... so how did you guys link I mean how did you become a step brother to Ethan '' I asked ,I expected him to be taken aback by my question or better still ignore it but he didn't seem to flinch a bit he was staring at me with a narrowed eye and just decided to answer...
" it's complicated in a way ... well you know we rich folks don't mainly care about love before marriage so his dad had a business deal to seal with one of the shareholders ,it was a very big deal but at that time the company didn't have enough funds ,I was like thirteen then or maybe older but not matured enough to know but I got the details later on he married my mom so they merged my mom's wealth and influence together with Ethan dad power and authority... he just had this aura of power with him even when he went broke he still had it ....he said with a sigh.
" so they merged for business sake ... like they are in a contract or something ... I asked cause I was practically curious ... to know it's not every day I get to set with a rich guy and get his family history...
" yeah they merged for business and it's been going well since then,they get to pay her ... her own end of the money that she invested ... she owns partially all the shareholders there ...
" woah your mom really is something I mean dont be angry ,my mom practically married a soldier just wondering where she was when her mates were marrying business men like your mom it would really be cool to meet her someday..." I said not even realizing the trouble I was inviting to myself.
"hey ,let make a deal " he said looking straight at me ...
" okay ...it better be something good ...
" so I was thinking since you invited me over for dinner today... maybe tommorow you could come do dinner at my place ... ''
" I don't think I can...
" Are you telling me No right now soph c'mon it won't kill you....
" that's what you told me when we went to the bar ....
