“Madam, please calm down. I am sure it’s something important, otherwise boss would have never skipped work.” After working under Daniel for several years, this was the first Saturday off. Though he was excited to spend the day as he pleased, he felt anxious too.
When Daniel told him to take the day off over the phone, he thought he had heard wrong. This is why he decided to swing by the office just in case. But when Daniel did not show up, he was very surprised.
“What is he up to these days? Is something going on?” When Josh did not say anything, Melissa frowned, “Josh, don’t try to lie to me. I want you to tell me everything.”
“I don’t know anything, Madam.” When she glared at him, he gulped in nervousness. “I-I seriously don’t know. Boss is following his normal routine but—”
“But what?” she curiously inquired. Unlike Owen who was an open book, Daniel was different. He never shared anything with her. This is why she always took a monthly report of his whereabouts from Josh.
