“Arabella, did Mr. Sky already accepted you as his secretary?” On the phone, Claire made a follow-up on her status at Bill’s office.
“Hmmm… I think, yes? He told me to prepare for a meeting tonight.” Arabella was actually not sure since she didn’t hear any acceptance from Bill directly.
“That’s good to hear! I am not wrong to choose you. Now, I am at ease that our CEO had a new assistant. Congratulations Ms. Jones.” Claire breathed a sigh of relief. As a VP of an HR department, it’s a big stain for her title if she couldn’t find a new secretary for her CEO that fitted his standard. Good thing, Arabella came in.
‘Congratulations, Ms. Jones.’ This statement was like a boomerang in her ears. People who were congratulated were supposed to be happy. Why she couldn’t feel it? There was not even a single moment of happiness in her instead, she had felt dozens of madness.
