...-End with a warm smile, Elise managed to make Nicolas blush. Unusually she is like this, as an assistant to a CEO she has obviously met a lot of beautiful women but somehow the warm smile of Elise tickles her heart...
"Give him a job"
Julian said, as soon as he entered his study. The man Julian ordered was silent for a while, trying to digest what Julian had said to him all of a sudden.
The boss and his old best friend is indeed a hobby of making impromptu plans, but only this time he suddenly recruited new employees.
"I'm sorry? Do we have any new employees?"
There is no empty place in the office. Even the staff is full. So Julian wants the person he's carrying to be put where?
"There is, whatever the job may be.
The cleaning staff can also"
Surprised by Julian's remark this time Elise interrupted, making the gazes of the people there turn to her.
"Sorry, mr. Julian. I have experience as a CEO in my father's company, besides that I also have a bachelor's degree in office administration"
Elise said firmly. He did not accept when Julian wanted to give a job as a cleaner even though Elise was clearly experienced. Instead of demeaning a job, it's just that Elise disagrees when Julian puts someone out of place.
"According to your educational background, you can be a secretary, right?"
The man who had not mentioned his name spoke again and was nodded by Elise. Now the decision is on Julian, but judging by the look on his face Julian does not seem to want to give that position to Elise.
"Sekertaris is already filled by Fiona. You want me to lay off Fiona and replace her with that?"
His tone is tight. Elise remembers Fiona, she works for the company Julian runs and she works as a secretary. The position Elise wanted.
As the bespectacled man was about to reply to Julian, the woman with the last name of Valise immediately spoke.
"Dear, it's okay. Please let Elise work as a secretary only"
Julian frowned, confused. Fiona does not usually let others take her place, even though the position as a secretary is the position she wanted the most since long ago.
"You sure?"
"Yes. Besides, I'm tired of working as a single secretary, if there's Elise, it's good. He can help me with my tasks and my time is just as much, can't he?"
Elise slightly objected to Fiona's opinion. Isn't it then that Fiona gets lazy while she works hard? But well, the important thing is Elise got that position now.
Julian seems to be thinking. It seems like she can't decide yet, but since Fiona herself wants it then she will do that. Whatever it takes for her beloved, she will survive working with Elise. Said.
"Well, if you want that."
Fiona's face turned bright. He hugged Julian tightly, expressing his joy at the lover.
"Yay! Thank you babe"
Julian smiled as well. He's happy as long as Fiona's happy too. Now his attention turned to look at the man he had commanded earlier. The bespectacled man with a slightly tall body from him, the black-haired climist displaying his forehead as well as his slightly gentle gaze.
"Nicolas you heard, right? Give the secretary to Elise from now on."
Julian called her Nicola casually because of their long-standing friendship.
Nicolas nodded in understanding, then he introduced himself to Elise who had just been silent and paying attention.
"I'm Nicolas Anelka, assistant CEO of Mr. Julian. Please cooperate,"
His hands stretched out toward Elise who was greeted directly by women fans of classical music.
"It's nice to meet you Mr. Nicolas. Please cooperate, too,"
The business smile ended his brief introduction. Elise smiled, for a courtesy she was used to doing that especially when with colleagues like this.
"I also. Please cooperate"
The brief handshake is over. After that, Elise became the second secretary. It is not unusual for a secretary position to be filled by two people, but in that company Julian's decision is absolute so Nicolas can only accept Elise and guide her a little.
The clock has shown time to work, therefore everyone began to do their respective tasks.
Julian's gone with Fiona. He said he was about to attend a meeting with one of the investors, so Fiona's presence as his partner was needed by Julian.
Buying new clothes and other necessities is what Julian does with Fiona, while Elise works in the office with Nicolas as her partner.
"This is Julian's schedule for tomorrow, you can check again later and this one is Fiona's job, she hasn't finished it so you just do it"
Nodding to understand Elise immediately sat down at her workplace. Tables that have proposals and documents stack up. As Nicolas said earlier, Fiona's task has not been completed.
Having to do it immediately if you do not want to accumulate is Elise's work motto, therefore she immediately did all her tasks without waiting for orders from Nicolas again.
But for a moment he thought.
'I can manipulate this data, right? That way this company will be fucked up'
Elise did not forget her original purpose. Messing up the company Eldi group by utilizing his position as fiancee and now he serves as secretary.
Like finding a mountain of diamonds, Elise did not want to waste this opportunity but as she opened one proposal and read it a frown on the forehead appeared.
"Huh? What the fuck? Junk proposal like this how can I get in?"
His hand reopened the proposal paper but his face grew increasingly wrinkled. Nicolas who was nearby stared in wonder, how bad was the content of the proposal he read?
"What's wrong?"
Nicolas asked briefly. Curious to see Elise's dark face every time she read the proposal, her face was about the same as Julian's when he read a bad report or his plan failed.
Elise let out a short breath. His hand put back the proposal he read, then looked at Nicolas straight.
"I wonder why a garbage proposal like this could come in. What is Ms Fiona's cataract? Planning on this proposal is bad, not to mention the cost budget is chaotic, the idea is also used by the market"
Hearing Elise's unfiltered speech left Nicolas dumbfounded. Just this time there are people who say Fiona cataract, even he insulted the contents of the proposal bluntly.
Nicolas chuckled, over into a small laugh made Elise instantly shut her mouth. Shit, he just realized what he was doing.
'I insulted Julian's lover in front of his assistant!!?'
What if Nicolas reports a derogatory remark on Fiona's ability to Julian?
"M—forgive me! I don't mean so—"
Elise's voice shrieked. I want it to turn back time but I can't do that. What he said was true anyway!
"It's okay. I get it"
Surprised, Elise gasped as Nicolas had the same thought as her.
A smile was still on Nicolas's face. His hands stretched out, taking the proposal that Elise had read then slightly swaying the bunch of paper in the air.
"Fiona has always been like this. He doesn't really understand the problem in the proposal, usually I'm the one who solves it"
Surprised not playing. If there wasn't Nicolas, maybe the company would have been destroyed long ago.
Why did he become a secretary if he did not understand his knowledge!? Elise gets upset on her own, but because of that she does Fiona's job really well.
Elise is pretty ambitious. He dislikes when work is done with origin, such as the proposal and the tasks of Fiona. So Elise begins to sort out the proposals that Julian deserves and that he should eliminate.
'I also have to check the schedule for tomorrow'
Because of taking care of this, Elise went a little overtime. Luckily Nicolas helped, so he didn't come home too late on his first day.
"Good, ms. Elise. Your job is very neat, this company is lucky to have a secretary like you"
Receiving compliments from Nicolas makes Elise happy. This was the first appreciation of his work here, his spirit instantly rose by a hundred percent.
"Thank you Mr. Nicolas. This is also thanks to your good guidance, I hope you can help me again later"
Ending with a warm smile, Elise managed to make Nicolas blush. Not usually he is like this, as an assistant to a CEO he has obviously met many beautiful women but somehow a warm smile from Elise very tickled his heart.
Nicolas tried to shake off that feeling. He must be professional, so personal feelings must not be present in his work.
"If you don't mind how about I drop off?"
The offer clearly made Elise happy. He was going to take another cab because Julian couldn't pick him up. Just come not in between, let alone go home.
Elise nodded briefly in response. There is no harm in receiving a small favor from a co-worker?
"Thank you Mr. Nicolas"
"If only you could call me Nicolas. We don't have to be so formal because it's outside of work hours,"
Nodding briefly back Elise did. He wouldn't mind doing it.
"OKAY. Then thank you Nicolas"
"Together, Elise"
