“Are you going out today?” I asked.
“No, I’ll be here to clear up some work. I’m leaving things on that end in Elizabeth’s hands for now until I hear back from her again,” Ace replied before showing me a warm smile.
“Alright, then. Please try to make it to your meetings on time. I’ll be heading over to my project room now if there’s nothing else…” I said politely as I switched into my secretarial mode.
“Good luck, Rina. Enjoy your day at work,” Ace said before he smiled at me again.
“Thanks, you too,” I replied simply.
The outlook for the day did not look bleak at all. Everything seemed bright enough although there were always uncertainties around us. I had a spring in my steps when I left Ace’s office to go to my project room where Richard was undoubtedly waiting for me. I told myself once again that I would work hard, do my best, and impress Richard one way or another.
