As always Eli smiled kindly. Even though it's a fake smile, it still looks polite. The location of Eli's plus point is from her smile and then this aspect must be used as well as possible to cover up a row of minus points on her.
"That's it. Let's go."
Loun nodded. His secretary smiled politely and then followed her boss.
In Eli's hands, there are meeting files. For about two hours Eli and former secretary Yorris prepared the meeting materials. Eli's adaptability is not very good, so she often looks down when she meets office employees. In terms of office work, Eli is still experiencing difficulties.
Once every hour Eli takes the time to silently pray for the smooth running of the work while hoping that everything will go well.
"Thankfully welcoming one client was according to my expectations," Eli said with a smile.
"You seem uncomfortable."
The former Jordan Corp secretary reprimanded Eli, he stared at Eli for a moment then continued to look at the road. It was like being scolded by a senior as much as possible Eli improved her attitude.
"Eh, I'm too obvious?" asked Eli looking briefly hoping to get a response. There was no more sound after that until Eli decided it was better to be silent.
Not wanting to drag on Eli forced herself to stare straight at her laptop again. This natural, innocent reaction made Stephan smile slightly.
"I didn't expect the boss to marry a woman like you. You are quite a sight to behold but... sorry before, your face is standard. But I have to admit that at least your appearance is quite a sight to behold."
Evaluation of appearance on the first day of work was not something that crossed Eli's mind, let alone her position as the wife of the company's CEO. It's okay, Eli doesn't think too much about her status. But at least Stephan has the courtesy not to offend anyone.
Because of these words Eli's status as a woman was being touched upon. The woman automatically looked to see if there was something wrong with her. Judging if the style of dress is bad.
Satisfied with the research, a logical conclusion was obtained. Eli's body, face, and sense of dress were subpar. Want to wear any model of clothing, the appearance of that woman looks mediocre.
"Humph, you're right. I don't look good. Regardless of your judgment at least my appearance is not bad."
Even though Eli was annoyed, he still smiled kindly.
"Yeah, no problem. I'm sorry if I offended you. As my substitute, you must be prepared for trials. Just consider my words as one part of that ordeal."
Eli's eyes narrowed. An idea popped into her brain. Stephan's behavior showed that he didn't like being replaced. That type of person is blacklisted in Eli's life. She couldn't stand the urge to strike back. Luckily Eli can still think straight, she doesn't want to make enemies on her first day at work.
From the first time they met Stephan's way of looking was so critical that Eli felt intimidated.
"Sorry, you don't like me taking your place?"
Canceled!
Eli refuses to be kind, she will do justice to her ego and common sense. Precisely at that time, Eli wanted to see how far Stephan didn't like her.
"Yeah, moreover my replacement is my boss' wife. Don't you think Mr. Yorris hired you because you are his wife?"
About a second later both of them looked at each other while noticing each other's demeanor. Eli and Stephan's eyes searched for weaknesses that could be used to bring each other down. An aura of hostility was evident.
If someone openly says they don't like her, Eli will treat that person according to the attitude shown.
Unexpectedly Eli chuckled. Not only that, she holds her stomach to enjoy her laugh.
What could be considered even more annoying, Eli immediately stopped laughing as he looked at Stephan's face.
"You're right, I think so too. I was accepted as a secretary for studying and I beg for your guidance. You don't need to worry about work, you're not fired anyway. Please, Mr. Stephan, help me learn the ins and outs of working around the office. You are no longer qualified for office if you refuse to carry out this task."
"Tch."
Stephan snorted. Was as good as possible Elu to avoid a worse problem.
"Instead of hating me, how about we be friends?"
According to the plan imprinted in the brain without hesitation, Eli immediately spoke. Do not forget to keep smiling and friendly.
It's nothing new when Eli invites someone to be friends she will stretch out her thumb to join someone else's thumb. Too bad the good offer was rejected outright.
"You're very friendly, huh?"
"Eh?"
Eli's thumb dropped. Not many people Eli treated like that. Just counting fingers!
Being rejected once feels like being stabbed with a knife.
Eli had always been insecure and aloof, she knew being friendly didn't suit her. That's why the woman is self-aware enough not to ask someone to be friends let alone make a thumbs-up sign. Thumb union is only convenient with siblings.
"Eh, I thought it wouldn't work."
Eli looked down disappointed. Surprisingly, even though it was uncomfortable, in an instant the head that had been bowed down looked straight. A cheerful expression appeared.
"Hehehe, you're interesting. We'll have lunch together later."
Maybe Eli's invitation can be considered friendly. But again the invitation still received a bad assessment from Stephan. This was the first time Stephan had met a friendly woman even though was already married.
"Tch. Besides being ugly, you also don't know yourself. Are you planning to have an affair? I'm sorry I won't fall for your charms. After all, you have no charm at all."
Already falling overwritten the stairs, Eli's heart ached many times. It hurt even more when saw Stephan walking away from his job. The hostility radiated so clearly that the room felt like it was surrounded by a dark aura.
For the umpteenth time, Eli faced an annoying day with a smile. At least her emotions can be controlled.
"Ahem."
Eli's reflexes were good enough that when she heard the sound her expression immediately changed to a warm smile mode.
"Hy Miss Cindy. Are you a CEO too?"
"No, I'm an investor. You work here, being a secretary, huh?"
Elisabeth in heart, "Here I'm again."
