He promised to attend the interview

It was 6 am in the morning when the alarm Clock of Grace started ringing. With a heavy eye Grace stressed out her hand and turned off the alarm.

Let me sleep for 5 minutes again. She said to herself and dozed off.

"Sis, sis, Wake up it's almost 6:30 you will be late for work." Grace heard someone saying in her dream land.

"Sis, you need to wake up your phone is Ringing and it's your boss calling you." Grace's brother said.

With the mention of her Boss Grace immediately woke up from her sleep and got down from the bed.

"Sis, your phone has been ringing and it's your boss calling." Elvis said the moment he saw that his sister was awake.

Grace took her phone from him. There were 5 Miss calls from her boss and when she checked the time it was 6:35 am.

Oh no. "I am late from work." Grace said as she thanked her brother and rushed to the bathroom to take her shower.

20 minutes later, Grace was already ready to go to work. So, she walked out of her room. Where she saw her mother and brother having their breakfast.

"Sis, come join us for breakfast before the food gets cool." Elvis said to her.

" Which rubbish breakfast are you talking about?" Did she give any money for breakfast in this house? Her mother asked her.

If you know what is good for you better go ask for forgiveness from Victor so he can continue supporting us in this house. Her mother added angrily.

You know what Elvis, I will pass. I will eat at my place of work. Grace said and was about to head out when Elvis called her.

"What is it?" Grace asked as she turned and looked at her brother.

Sis, Friday is the last day for me to complete my fees if not I won't sit for my exams. Elvis said to her.

"Don't worry, I will give you the money before Friday. Grace said with an assuring smile on her face."

Where will you have the money to give him? Her mother asked her. Because even the salary you are earning from that stupid accounting work you are doing at that news company won't be enough to complete your brother's fees.

Victor who could have helped us you had the mind to cheat on him. He mother said while looking at her with lots of disgust.

Ignoring what her mother just said to her, and turned to her brother and said. " Don't worry when I get back from work we will talk better. I am actually running late."

" Alright sis." Elvis answered and Grace walked out of the house.

"Actually mom, I don't like the way you talk to sis. Elvis said to his mother."

And how dare you tell me how to talk to that good for nothing sister of yours? His mother asked.

Mom, sis Grace has been trying for us. She has been the one taking care of us ever since dad died. All you do mom is to drink and get drunk. Elvis said to his mother.

And before he knew it, a hand landed on his jaw. "How dare you talk to me in that manner? Have you forgotten I am your mother? Grace's mother asked

With his hands still on his left jaw Elvis angrily took his school bag and left the house.

Look at the useless children I gave birth too. They have both grown winds. The big one as foolish and stupid as she is had the mind to cheat on someone who has been taking care of us and the small one has the mind to call me his mother a drunker. Grace's mother said to herself as she continued eating her food.

Since the taxi Grace booked didn't delay to come pick her up Grace was able to get to the office but she was 5 minutes late.

When she was in front of her company she took off her ring again and put it inside her bag.

"My mom kept nagging me till the point where she couldn't even notice that I was putting on a wedding ring." Grace said to herself with a sad expression on her face.

But later change it since she is about to enter the company.

"Mrs Divine. Someone called from behind causing her to turn."

"Good morning Gerald." Grace said to the person who called her.

Good morning Mrs Divine. Gerald answered.

Please stop calling me that. Grace will be fine. She said.

"I am sorry mam, but the boss will cut off my head if he hears me call you by your name." Gerald said to her.

" Fine, but you can call me that when he is around if not then call me Grace especially at my workplace." Grace said to Gerald.

"Alright Mrs. Divine."

Gerald... Grace called

Sorry, Grace mam.. Gerald said.

"Better. By the way what are you doing here? And where is your boss?" Grace asked.

Mrs... Sorry, Grace, my boss went to one of his offices. Gerald said.

"Then why are you here?" Grace asked him.

Actually madam, My boss sent me to come pick you up at your house and drop you at your place of work but when I got to your house I saw entering a taxi. So, I decided to follow behind to make sure you arrive here safely.

Thanks Gerald but you didn't have too. Anyway as you can see I am at my place of work and also, I am late so I will like to go inside. Grace said.

"Alright mam." Gerald said.

And Grace walked towards the company door and the security guard opened the door for her to walk inside.

Mrs. Divine! Gerald called before Grace could walked inside the company.

What is it Gerald? She asked.

"Please mam, don't tell the boss I wasn't able to drive you to work." Gerald said in a pleading manner.

"Don't worry, I won't" . I give you my word. Grace said as she walked inside the company.

You are late. Cindy said to Grace the moment Grace stepped into her office. Causing all her colleagues to turn and look at her.

And how is that your business? Grace fired back as she looked at Cindy and the guy beside her who turned out to be her good for nothing ex boyfriend Victor.

Isn't that guy one of Alpha Nelson subordinates? Mr. Mason asked.

"Who sir?" Grace asked.

"The guy you were talking with outside the company?" Mr. Mason answered.

"How can you think, that guy will be one of Alpha Nelson subordinates?" Cindy asked Mr. Mason.

Yes sir, Maybe he was just one of the many men this woman here sleeps with. Victor said.

I might not be lucky enough to have an interview with Alpha Nelson Divine but when it comes to his subbodinates I know them well because they are the once who run his errands.

"And I am sure someone like you Mrs. Cindy Rodriguez will know that." Mr. Mason said to Cindy causing both of them to be quiet.

"What did Mr. Nelson Subordinates come to tell you?" Mr. Mason asked

" He told me Alpha Nelson Divine will attend the interview."
