ALL I WANT IS YOU -
Chapter 42
"Dawn," she heard him call out again as he held her hand lightly, when she turned to stare at him. He released his grip on her hand and raised both hands up like he meant no harm to her. "What do you want?"
"We need to talk?" Damien knew what he did wasn't the best way to get her away from Stephan but still Stephan didn't deserve her.
"I have nothing to say to you, I will advice you stay away from me for your own good." Dawn warned walking out, she didn't have time to chit chat about irrelevant stuffs.
She walked into the car outside and got into the backseat, Stephan had gotten her own personal driver to drive her wherever she wanted to go.
All she knew was that his name was Eric, he wasn't much of a talker. So the ride to the office was silent.
When she got to the office, she took the private elevator up to his office.
On getting to his office, he wasn't yet back. He had texted her that he was still in a meeting and she should check out the file on his desk. She dropped the coffee on the table and sat on his chair looking through the file.
It was their upcoming mask party coming on the weekend plans, Dawn had not yet decided on what she wanted to wear exactly to the party.
She read each line slowly, trying to see if their is any errors or miscalculation in the financial aspect.
When she noticed something wrong, she took his pen and jotted it down on the empty book on the table.
She was so engrossed in the file, she didn't notice someone walk in.
"Who the hell are you? And why are you sitting on my boss chair."
Dawn had not heard the first time until the lady mentioned it again angrily, Dawn stared at her with a confused look.
"I am..."
"Get up from there right this minute," the lady interrupted walking up to her and pulling her up from the seat.
Up close Dawn could see the lady was up to her age and formally dressed as well, Dawn wasn't familiar with this company yet.
The last couple of times she had entered, it was through the private elevator and straight into Stephan's office. She was only familiar with the security team and the receptionist.
She didn't know who this lady was and it was best she explained herself to her but she remembered Stephan telling her that he expected her to feel in control of any situation she found herself as the company was not a place for weaklings. She stared at the name tag, when the lady yanked the file from her hand and dropped it from the table.
"Dorris I am Step...I mean Mr Klar's new personal assistant."
"Do I look like a joke to you?" Doris was sent in by Mr Klar to bring some paperwork from his office, only for her to replace some lady on his chair. Not only was she disrespectful by doing that she was also claiming her position as the personal assistant.
"Do I look like I am laughing?" Dawn replied removing Dorris hand from her hand and sitting back on the seat. "Take what you want and get out."
Dorris was stunned by the order, she was about to give Dawn a tight slap when Eric, Stephan's body guard came inside.
Dorris hand hung in the air as Dawn stared at Eric.
"Miss is anything the problem?"
Dorris placed her hand down to her side, so she could explain the situation to Eric. It was good he was here to witness this nonsense.
She pointed at Dawn.
"Yes, this lady was..."
"No it's fine Eric, just get her out." Dawn replied and it dawned on Dorris that Eric wasn't talking to her.
Eric nodded and motioned Dorris to the door.
"Right this way Ma," Eric said.
"Didn't you hear me, I said this lady was..."
"Ma'am don't let me come to you, right this way now." Eric pleaded as Dorris swallowed hard in shame, she bowed her head down and walked out of the office.
It was one thing to offend someone in the company but to offend the security team was like offending Stephan.
After Dorris was done, Eric informed Dawn that Stephan had gone for another meeting outside town and ordered that she continue her work and leave an hour after closing hours.
Eric also reassured her that he would be outside the door to wade off any form of distraction. He also informed her that he was fully at her service if she needed to eat or drink anything.
"Thank you so much Eric." Dawn appreciated, when Eric was gone she continued her work. It seemed easy at first until things started repeating each other and some calculations didn't add up. When it was lunch break, she decided to go and eat in a restaurant instead of ordering for food. She called Eric who dropped her off at a restaurant.

"Can you come back? I don't want you getting bored." Dawn told Eric as she came down from the car.
"It's okay Ma'am, it's my job. Take as much time as you want."
"Thank you," Dawn appreciated and got in to eat.
While in the restaurant, she ordered a take way pack for Eric. He had been beside her all day, she wondered if he had even eaten.
"If it's not miss high and mighty," Dorris said walking in with Elizabeth. She was here to eat lunch when she saw Dawn talking to the waiter and collecting a take away pack. Dawn didn't seem bothered by her presence, she collected the take away pack and headed out.
"Ain't we talking to you, you bimbo." Elizabeth called out, she had lost her job because of this bimbo, she might as well get under her skin. She didn't have anything to lose. "Elizabeth right?" Dawn said still walking out as they followed behind.
"You should both respect yourself," Dawn warned she wasn't in the mood for this nonsense.
"Why should we? What do you have that we don't? You crazy bitch." Elizabeth said in an angry tone.
Dawn didn't answer her questions.
She looked around for Eric's car, she spotted it afar and walked up to it. When she was in front of the back seat, Dorris yanked her over and gave her a tight slap.
Dawn was shocked by what Dorris just did, images of Olivia slapping her came to her mind and she didn't know why.
"Ma'am," She heard Eric shouting as he came out of the driver's seat towards them, it seemed he had seen it through the car window.
The car was tinted so it was hard to tell if anyone was watching from inside.
Eric didn't waste anytime in slapping Dorris so hard, she fell to the ground with her hands to her cheek as tears lingered in her eyes.
Dorris didn't have any plans to do what she did but Elizabeth kept telling her to stand her ground and not let anyone control her especially this lady.
Elizabeth had succeeded in poisoning her mind, in the little time they spent together eating during lunch break. Dorris and Elizabeth were good friends and office colleagues before Elizabeth got fired.
They both had a thing for Stephan but Elizabeth had gotten a upper hand because she was Stephan's secretary but after she got fired Dorris took over her position.

Dorris was trying to recover from what Eric had just done to her, he seemed occupied checking Dawn to be sure she was okay and not hurt or injured.
"Are you okay Ma'am?"
"Am fine." Dawn smiled at him, she was pleased that he was not just her driver but he was also more like a bodyguard. She had wanted to retaliate but Eric slap was ten times her slap.
It didn't only leave a mark on her face, it caught her unaware as she found herself on the ground.
Eric opened the back door for her and motioned her in, when Dawn got in she nearly shivered in fright as she stared at Stephan.
How did he get here? Did he just witness what happened? Was that why Eric reacted the way he did.
Eric entered immediately and started the engines.
"You..are..here," Dawn stuttered.
"I don't want you going out to get food alone," Stephan replied adjusting his tie down. He was done with his meeting when he decided to come to where Dawn was.
He couldn't believe Dorris would coup up with Elizabeth to do such nonsense, well good riddance to her life because Stephan was going to definitely make sure she didn't have any other means of getting employed anywhere. Dorris didn't only disrespect Dawn, they went ahead to try to harm her.
"It was just Dorris, I can get my...."
"Do not disobey me Dawn."
Dawn didn't say anything more, she reached out to the seat next to Eric and place the take away.
"I got you something to eat," Dawn said dropping it.
"It's not necessary Ma."
"I insist."
"Ain't we going back to the office?" Dawn asked when she noticed they weren't passing the usual route to his office. Was he that mad at her and the whole situation that he didn't want her to work in his office anymore. "Matteo and Sarah is waiting for us in the house," Stephan said. "I am not firing you on the first day, Sarah is just keen on seeing you."
