Chapter 9 - Chapter - 9

Leslie smirked at Ziya and said in her ear, " I will do as you say but only on one condition. If you agree to it then I might not say about this to anyone and your secret will be safely going down with me to my grave. How about that? "

Ziya looked skeptically at her before she asked, " About that, before I agree to anything I have a question of my own to ask you. " Did by any chance Chris saw this scenario happening or is it just you? "

Leslie laughed heartily wiping her fake tears off her eyes and said, " Nobody saw that except me. Even I wouldn't have noticed it if it weren't for this pen which fell down due to the slight brush of my arm. So now your turn, do you agree to that one condition of mine? "

Ziya: " Do I have a choice or a say in this matter? "

Leslie: " Well if you ask me then for sure you do but if you don't want anyone to know then you don't have a choice. "

Ziya: " Alright then, I agree to that 1 condition you will speak of. "

Leslie: " That's like my girl. So, come here closer. "

Ziya went a bit closer to Leslie and leaned her ears a bit while Leslie whispered the condition in her ears. Ziya looked shock for a moment and Leslie graciously provided her some time to her for the condition to sink in her system.

Ziya: " Alright, since I have already agreed to your condition, there's nothing I can do anymore but Why did you think of that so suddenly? "

" Honestly speaking, while you were still settling your bag into the cabinet and probably exploring the back room, he stopped by here while he was still on call with someone and he forgot his car keys here by mistake. "

Leslie: " As far as I know, he will be going up his penthouse, finish the call, take a quick shower and will then head to the swimming pool area. That's his regular routine. "

"Since you already bumped into him, I was hoping you will go to the pool area and return him his car keys. "

" This happens quite often since this building is keyless and you don't have to carry an actual key to get inside the building. So, it won't be a problem for you. "

Ziya: " Alright, your explanation sounds reasonable. So, I will go towards the pool area, find him and return him the keys after I finish reading the rule book. It won't take too long since it's only a couple of pages plus I have a very good memory. "

Leslie: " Sounds good to me. Doing so, you will be able to venture inside the building and you can personally check out all the amenities while you are going upstairs. "

Meanwhile Chris noticed the ladies talking with each other in a whispering voice so he asked, " What are you guys whispering to each other about? "

Before Ziya could reply him, Leslie speaks up, " Apparently I was asking Ziya to finish reading the rule book and then should go for the tour of the building. Especially the amenities area. "

Chris: " Yes, I agree with Leslie here. Ziya you should definitely head to the amenities section and see the beauty of all the luxury we have in here. "

" Would you be fine going on alone though? I remember I have a meeting with the contractors and Managers in the office. "

" Leslie could not come to show you around since one of us needs to be here always, just in case they need our assistance. "

Ziya: " Don't worry Chris. I will be fine on my own plus Leslie has briefly provided me the theoretical tour of the building. So I am aware of which amenities are on which floors. Thank you for worrying about me. "

Chris smiled sweetly at her and said, " You are like my daughter, how can I not be worrying about you. Don't fret young lady. "

" If you are in case lost somewhere in the building, Leslie will provide you the desk number, give a call to her and she will virtually guide you."

Ziya: " Roger that captain. "

Hearing Ziya's enthusiastic voice, everyone around started laughing.

Chris: " It's a nice change of pace, we seldom laugh in here. Sometimes laughing like this once in a while is really good for the environment. Thank you Ziya for making us smile. "

After this cute interaction, Ziya started to focus on her rule book and tried her best to memorize them. Occasionally she would ask Leslie some questions regarding the building rules and Leslie would genuinely answer them as best as she can according to her knowledge.

Leslie was really very happy to know that this young girl was enthusiastic and willing to genuinely learn about the workplace. This makes her really very happy that she will be replacing her and will be a good change for Chris as well.

Leslie has known Chris for a very long time now and she knew that he is ageing. Despite him being knowledgeable, he still needs a young blood help to run the errands and keep the place going. He cannot run around at this age.

People likes to see him in here since they are comfortable and used to his presence plus he is against retiring at this age as he still thinks that he can be of more help to the people in this building who has shown him so much love and are still showering him with lots of love and respect.

I honestly think that Ziya's presence will help him a lot in here and he needed someone like her to help him daily.

While Leslie was still deep in her thoughts, Ziya called for her causing Leslie to stop her train of thoughts and replied while smiling at her, " Yes Ziya. "

Ziya: " I was wondering what the contact number is for the front desk. "

Leslie: " Are you done with the rule book? Do you want to go upstairs and see the handsome guy again? "

Ziya smiled a bit and said, " I really am done reading the rules and I think I should head upstairs to return him his car keys plus it won't hurt my eyes to see him once more. "

Leslie laughed at her antics and said, " Note down the numbers, it's (123) 456-7890. That is if you get lost somewhere in this vast space. "

" Don't call me while you are lost in his eyes or else I don't mind but you will have to give me the details. "

Ziya: " Alrighty, I will definitely refrain myself from calling the desk, by the way what's his name? "

Leslie teased Ziya and said, " Oh my! That's a new development, you want to know his name. "

Ziya pouted her cheeks and said, " Stop teasing me. I am just asking, you know I will be working here permanently in 3 days. What's the harm in knowing his name? "

Leslie laughed a bit and said, " Okay okay, I will stop teasing you now. Don't pout, you look more like a squirrel when you pout. "

" Anyways, his name is Aziel Watson, he is the sole heir to the Watson group of industries. "

Ziya: " Hold on Leslie, I don't need his biodata. I just wanted to know his name. Don't give me any other details or else I know you are not gonna stop from teasing me. "

Leslie: " Are you sure about that honey, you really don't want to know any more information on him? "

Ziya: " Affirmative. Now, where are his car keys that you mentioned before? "

Leslie: " Alrighty, your loss. Don't blame me for not telling you any more information on him. Remember you are the one who stopped me from giving you any more details. "

" As for the keys, Leslie opened the first drawer beside her desk and took the Rolls-Royce Boat Tail car keys and handed it over to me and said, here you go. "

After grabbing keys from Leslie, Ziya started her journey to venture around and look for the amenities.
