Having verified his identity from the front, Michael had the serving lady include another toast to the earlier three and another park of milk.
The few minutes of clarifying the matter, to getting the meal was a bit embarrassing and tiresome, so he added a bit more food to relax himself.
Meals from the cafeteria were not unlimited but four toasts and two glasses while hearty were still within the individual budget limit.
Carrying the food tray, he sat at a corner seat.
Glancing at his wristwatch, it was already past 9, less than two hours before his appointment.
Opening a park of milk he pouried in into a glass and drank while bitting on a toast.
Seeing as there was still time, while eating Michael proceed to do a bit of research of Rhea Grey from his mobile phone.
This CEO, he had a bit of inkling of, due to his earlier job at the south section branch.
But nothing more, nothing less.
Now than he was gunning for an executive position and was to be interviewed by the other party it was necessary to do a bit of research.
He was relatively wealthy and financially stable.
But he had selfish and sentimental reasons he wanted this job.
.....
Rose didn't have an encounter with him, but after getting his meal, she had glanced at him bit from her seat before finishing up her meal and leaving afterwards.
In her office room, Rhea stood an the clear window panes of her office watching the burstling metropolis of the Laen City and the down abbey of burstling staff of her business empire.
With her signature coffee of much cream and sugar in hand.
Thinking to herself, " What a stressful morning"
In just this morning, she had reviewed reports upon reports, contracts, business deals and much.
The intensity of mental focus and intensity of the past few hours for her wasn't any thing to scoff at.
Truely work was stressful.
As the CEO of a successful company, the ignorant would think she lived an easy life.
But she worked hard, really hard.
The ignorant would think, didn't she sit in an airconditioned office, reviewing some papers.
The ignorant truly.
this was just two albeit necessary aspects of her job!
Not to mention board meetings, staff meetings, business trips, welfare and numerous other aspects of her job.
Just this aforementioned two of sitting and reviewing papers she did most regularly were nothing to scoff at.
Sometimes she sat till her butt ached, at times she reviewed till her brain ached.
She truly worked hard, or was Grey cooperation successfully for naught.
Drinking coffee and this window gazing was just for a few moments of rest.
Throwing the empty coffee cup in the bin and still feeling the need to talk an external breather.
Rhea left her office as her figure swayed across the hallway.
External, as in outside her office.
Sadly even as the CEO, there were few places in the building she could go to or be casually.
Thankfully there was Rose, sweet interesting Rose, her charging.
Usually the entirety of this top floor section was empty, safe only them both
.....
Rose was typing something, when she felt a presence, from the familiar fragrance she already knew who it was but pretended otherwise not taking her sight from the computer.
Rhea pouted at this assistant of hers, if others could see this rare side and pouting of Rhea they would clearly be surprised and entrailed.
From her side eye, Rose seeing this cute pout couldn't help but stop pretending, not wanting to tease the other any longer.
" What is it Ma "
Rhea was really used to this secretary/personal assistant and her professionalism, always so serious.
Having just come over for no reason, but not wanting to admit so especially with the poker like face on the other party, Rhea's brain spun rapidly for something to say.
The other party Rose beneath the poker dace already knew her boss just wanted to relax a bit.
Seemingly having a light bulb moment, Rhea looked at her watch and asked.
" What is my next schedule ".
The earlier morning schedule a been congested but Rhea had some free time now.
In fact Rhea knew her next appointment, she just brought it up at the spur of the moment.
" You have an interview with Mr Michael Sun ", Rose answered in muffled voice.
Rhea chuckled in response to this
Although she was sure it wasn't deep, Rhea didn't know why Rose had some apprehension towards this man.
Seeing an avenue to play and a rare chance to tease her friend she said in a playful banter.
"How about if he comes late, we remove some points from the score card"
Now it was Rose's turn to pout before chuckling, " he's already here ".
