Chapter 132 - His angel..!

Rose stepped inside the office door and seated herself on the boss's chair. Various documents were neatly placed on the table before her, which she quickly started to read one by one.

Rose's office was built in a large area, decorated beautifully in a vintage theme. The white chair and table were elegantly decorated with pink and green flowers, matching the curtains.

Few antique decoratives were neatly placed on a wooden shelf, just behind her chair. The entire ceiling was covered with artificial green leaves hanging downwards. The wooden shelves were embedded in the wall and were full of books on fashion and interior designing.

Rose had personally designed her office, giving it a cozy and elegant look.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door and Rose picked up her head to answer.

"Come in please," said Rose.

Stefen entered the office with a usual bright smile on his face.

"Good morning boss! You look lovely as always," greeted Stefen in high spirits.

"Good morning! Thank you so much," replied Rose, looking at him carefully.

"What happened to your hand and also your arm? They are heavily bandaged!" asked Stefen in worry.

"Oh this! I triped. Just a minor thing," she rebutted.

"Oh! Then it's fine. Here is your schedule for today," he said handing over a black tablet to her.

"Please sit! I need to ask you something first," said Rose pleasently.

"Offcourse boss," replied Stefen and seated himself across the table.

Stefen sat on the chair while carefully reading something on the screen of the tablet. Rose could not find any hint of nervouseness or behavioural change in him!

Rose knew that Stefen was not a person who could maniplulate anybody, specially Rose.

Rose had found him in a juvinile re-hab few years back. He had lost his parents in a road accident and thus started with substance usage.

Rose had once accompanied her mother to the rehab centre to interview an accused. Rose at that point was at the beginning of her career and Fabiosa was known only to a few. She was walking behind her mother, crossing the chambers, when she noticed a chamber where a young boy with long hair was drawing something on the wall. Rose halted to look at the boy out of curiosity. She looked inside the chamber and saw various colored crayons spread all across the floor and the walls were full of drawings of girls wearing different outfits. The drawings were not just beautiful, but the outfits drawn on them were very elegant.

She rushed to inquire about Stefen's history from the rehab's incharge. His parents had died and he had to drop out of his designing school due to lack of funds. He was in severe depression and was also highly addicted to drugs which ultimately brought him to rehab.

"Can I meet that boy?" requested Rose to her mother.

Her mother did not intervene in her decision. She knew that Rose must have truely seen something in that boy. Soon the boy was summoned by the officials and he was brought to meet Rose.

The boy with disheaveled hair and was now standing lifelessly before her.

"Hello there! I am Rose," greeted Rose cheerfully. Stefen picked up his eyes to look at the girl but did not reply.

"What's your name?" asked Rose cheerfully.

"S..S..Stefen," he replied, hesitatingly looking downwards.

"Stefen, I heard about your parents. I am really sorry," said Rose sympathatically.

Stefen nodded in reply but did not utter any word from his mouth. He was constantly looking at the floor.

"Back there in the cellar, I saw you draw. You are very talented. I have just started a fashion designing company, so I was wondering if you would like to work for me?" she asked sweetly.

Stefen finally picked up his eyes and starred at Rose. She is offering me a job?

"But why me? I am a college drop out!" asked Stefen in surprise and confusion.

"Yes! But you are truly talented. Your ideas and your concepts are different from the rest. You basically need more training and for that I am willing to send you back to your school," she said sweetly.

"You are what...???" he asked in amazement.

"You should complete your course and side by side work for me. This way you can pay back your fees to me and later after completion of your course, you can hold a permanent position in my company," she said in a serious tone.

Stefen could not believe his fate! Just when he had lost all hope, this girl came as an angel to save him.
