Work

Chapter 4:

Work

We sorted out the rules and misunderstanding, i am now heading to work, I'm following the address that my grandfather sent.

And i think I arrived the right building, i guess?

Well i thought i had to do some stuff before getting the job, but actually im surprised at the job my grandfather appointed me to. Im gonna be the Secretary of the Acting CEO, yeah thats right but the thing is i do not know who is the CEO or the Acting CEO but it is said to be his son will be the Acting CEO, after work i think at home i need to research about the company's background since as a secretary i think I'm gonna be the right hand of the Acting CEO right?

I was told to wait in the CEO's Office...

I observed the room, its elegant but it's too plain... but the room overall is nice.

Then the door opened and the Acting CEO came in.

uh are you sure that's the Acting CEO?

I think im dreaming or imagining things, or worse hallucinating.

Or do i need a glasses?

This is too much!

Percy’s POV

As i entered the office, i was ready to meet my secretary but then i was surprised of who it was.

Is it because of what happened in the morning? Im thinking too much about it that i might actually be imagining things.

But damn thats tells me, that it is what i see.

This hella too much of a coincidence.

Astrea’s POV

"Are you the Acting CEO?" I asked.

"What about you? Are you my secretary?" He also asked.

We stared at each other and we can already tell what is the answer to those questions...

"So... uh, What do i do Mr... uh whats your name Mr.CEO?" I asked nervously.

I don't think he said his name, and since i am his secretary i think i need to know everything about him right?

"It's Lee Percy." He simply said.

Hmm, Lee Percy?...

Have i heard of that name before?

"And Miss Secretary, you're name is?"

My name? Oh right i also didn't tell him my name.

"Reeves Astrea." I simply said.

For a moment his eyes were surprised i can see that. Whatever...

"Anyways, Ms.Reeves you are my secretary and you shouldn't tell anyone about us living in one roof and i hope this is the last coincidence between you and me."

'As if i also want to meet you or see you all the time Mr.Lee.' I said in my head.

Anyways we started working, and for today i have nothing to do but to research about the background of the company and to check every thing related to this company, and the upcoming projects as well. Oh but i do need to memorize his schedule and you guessed it, i have to follow him around, duh it's obvious since im the secretary. Uh this job requires too much work, there for well played grandfather.

Suddenly my phone rang, and Mr.Lee looked at me. I excused myself and answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"My Princess, How is work?" He asked.

Tch, How is work? Old man you played me dirty. I said in my mind.

"Grandpa, it's alright its just too much usage of brain."

"Oh? How come?"

"Simply coz i have to memorize alot of things."

But its alright since im good at memorizing...

He laughed a little bit. "Is that so? Do well Astrea."

Then he hung up, and suddenly Mr.CEO— i mean Mr.Lee coughed intentionally. So i turned around to him.

"No phone calls from friends or boyfriend, during work hours." He said and went back to work.

No phone calls from friends and boyfriend, lol as if i have one. I mean a boyfriend, i have friends but a boyfriend lol this Mr.Lee is funny.

"How bout relatives?" I asked.

"T-Thats fine."

Hm, okay then..

Noted i guess.

Work hours is finally finished, its time to go home. I quickly packed my stuff and wore my coat.

You know it's weird coz he and i headed out the same time, and what's actually funny is were heading the same home.

Wait, he's the son of a CEO can't he just move out and buy a apartment or a unit? Well duh maybe he has reasons so whatever.

I was walking out the building and he was heading to the parking lot, probably since he's the son of the CEO and surely he has a car.

"Hey uh, Miss Reeves” He called out.

"Hm?"

"Uh you could just ride with me since we're heading the same.. u know." He said.

"Mr.Lee that's not necessary, someone may see us and think of something, and we don't know each other that much." I simply said.

And then i started to walk away, I didn't realize walking to home is that long and its already dark...

Dark... huh.

Suddenly there's a light from a car, I didn't turn my back to check it. Instead i walked a little more faster who knows who or what is in that car right?

And then it reached up, and it honked.

The windows slid down and it was just Mr.Park.

"Astrea, get in." He said in a demanding tone, as if he was ordering me to.

Without my permission my body just automatically went in, okay.

"Uh, Mr.Lee-“ he cut me off.

"If its outside the company it's alright to call me Percy." He said.

Hm, he seems more serious in the car than when we talked a bit out side the building...

"Uh okay Mr—- i mean okay P-Percy.."

"Thats more better anyways, can you cook?" He asked.

Can i cook why would he ask that?

"Uh a little?"

"Is that a question?"
