As jasmine walked in, Eric motioned William not to enter and close the door.
"Jasmine, sit and lets discuss the promotion" Jasmine quickly sat in front of Eric scared for her life. Many questions were going through her mind and they all centered about why she would be promoted
Eric noticed her uneasiness but couldn't think of anything to calm her so he decided to get to the point "well you were recommended by your head of department, who thinks you are competent enough to work as my personal assistant. So I would..."
Before he could complete his sentence jasmine jumped up from her seat and said "What! Why would you want me to be your daily personal assistant?" Jasmine said looking shocked at the man in front of her seated in a refined manner while she stood with a hand on her hip. Eric looked in amusement as the girl he liked for years stand before him and she is scolding him. Eric chuckles to her reaction and says "yes I want to make you my personal assistant is that a problem" he pauses to gaze her reaction "I've seen your capability in all areas, so it would be good to have a secretary and Pa" Jasmine seemed to think about it for a minute before signing it there and then without reading the contract and she leaves immediately more like run away- am I that scary to her?
Eric busies himself with his work not knowing when it is lunch time, there is a faint knock on the door which makes him look up and wonder who might be there. The door opened and slightly creaked and a small head popped out and gave a sight and then walked towards him. Eric sat straight and looked at her to see food in her hands. He motioned for Jasmine to sit and talk why she was here.
"well boss I thought you may not eat so I came with some food, I didn't know what you liked so I ordered a small quantity of everything from a restaurant under the company" Eric gave a slight nod for her to open it, quickly he saw the girl take out something in a hurry, it seemed to be pad, well at least she would not be pregnant now but wait she is on her period and he can see the slight discomfort she feeling.
Jasmine notice his gaze linger on what she took out her face was flushed crimson red. Eric saw this and let a dry laugh come out and he picked up his cutlery's and started to eat whatever was put in front of him. "You know Jasmine you would move in with today" Eric said while eating. Jasmine looked shocked, she tried to argue but Eric said it was in the contract and if she hadn't signed it could have been negotiable. Jasmine was shocked, gosh why couldn't she read the contract.
"sir, what about my own house and stuff" Jasmine said with a hopeful gaze, Eric remember that her dad died so she is living with her mom so the best option is to let her go during the weekends except there is a 'very' very important meeting/event. After Jasmine heard that, she was more than happy to eventually give in.
