Chapter 3 - [2]Working late..

I am ready now. Thanks to the people from earlier, I can feel at ease. There's nothing to get worked up over. I don't have my files. I am prepared. I am well-groomed. Everytging is good. I just need to wait for them to call my name I will go in without my files....I DON'T HAVE MY FILES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Applicant Twenty-six. You can come in." said a monotonous voice through a mic.

Okay. Time for me to make my dream comes true. I enter and...

"Good morning, Miss Jesseo Mary. Please, take a seat--" said an old man before being interrupted.

"You are the girl from earlier. You made it here. I am impressed. I thought you wouldn't make it. But I was wrong. And for that, I take you in. You are hired, 'Angel Mary'." said a man with the gentle voice.

Angel ?? He knows me ? And that gentle voice ? It is the guy from earlier. Who is he ?

"I take your silence as a 'yes'. You start today. Good luck !" said the man with the gentle voice before disappearing again.

Wait !!! Why is that important ?! I was hired !!! But, why ? I still wanna know. I'll try to steal a moment from him. If he knows me, I won't get fired, right ?

"Thank you....But actually, who was thst person ?" asked Mary to the interviewers.

But as soon as I asked that question, the atmosphere became heavy all of a sudden. I could feel a certain anger in their eyes. In that large room filled with chairs and tables. Interviewers and only me. The air got heavier. And when I was about to faint from stress...once more, a rough hand saved me, followed by a gentle voice.

"I was waiting for you outside. But you took your time. So, I came back. Oi !! I thought I already hired her. Why were you inspecting her just now ??!" said that man with a cold look.

Him again. Saving me from those sharks. But who is he ? To shut up imposing old rich figures. Is he important here ? Does he know me ? And why am I important ? Who am I to him ?

"We apologize. We will go now."

Bland words. No feeling. Those old hags, I feel like they are--

"They are not old hags..[Smiles]...They are the 'Company Legal Committy'. I say and they do.. And right now, I pissed them off because of you. Looks like you owe me..." said that man so calmly.

Me..Pissed....Them....debt..? What is he saying ? And how did he know my thoughts ?

"The Angel Mary I knew changed a bit. But at least, you are still quite cute. So, you still can't recognise me ?" said that man with a disappointed look on his face.

But who is he ? I've never met a handsome man like him in my life. Never.

"I am hurt. I even confessed my love to you. But I guess it really meant nothing. Anyway, enough playing. You are now my secretary. Congratulation, you may start today."
