Time pass by rapidly, and Cass graduation has already done. Now she has to start applying for a job that suits her studied knowledge. She never knows what is coming for her in the future, so she was thinking of applying to the most prominent establishment in these places hoping for a vacant position. For her except for the experience, all other qualifications are fit for any position. The reason why she has some sort of reluctance because she has no experience but she has to take the beat no matter what, trying is not a harmful thing to do especially in applying for a job.
It's been a week after sending applications to different companies in city A including Stanley Manufacturing hoping for a vacant position that would fit her right in. Thinking about that, Cass Lim just hopes to be hired in any of them. Today's weather is good, so after pondering what to do she decided to buy some of her needs.
At Stanley Manufacturing CEO office, Josh is looking through the piled documents on his table. From time to time he would look up outside the wall to ceiling window of his office. He has a huge office with simple and elegant features, some of the decoration was ordered from another country. While picking the folder document he frowns when he had seen the content, because before reading the content of that specific document he saw the photo attach to it. In his mind, he seems to recognize the face in the photo. He read what was written in the document only then he remembered that he needed an executive assistant and is currently hiring for this now. Somehow he felt unusually excited then subconsciously press the intercom in his secretary which office is next to his. The only thing that separated their office is the soundproof wall so he needs to use the intercom. Seconds later, he heard a slight knock on the door, "Come in Morris", he said without looking in the direction of the sound.
" Sir what can I do for you sir? " said his secretary when he reaches in front of his boss. He picks up the folder then stretches his hand with the folder, giving it to the person opposite him. Morris just reaches it without saying a word then he flips the folder to see what's inside. When he read the word application and seen the photo he glances at his boss then said," Mr. Stanley I just want to clarify if you are going to hire this Miss Lim as your executive assistant, If I remember correctly you said you don't want to hire a woman in this position". Josh looked up to see his secretary looking at him with some doubt so he answered with an expressionless face," Yes, let's just hire her I can see that she has an excellent record in her study so Let's try hiring her first, if she is not good in her duty then let's find a replacement for her." Morris just nods his head while saying," okay I will call her right away sir." He then turns his back then walks to the door but before he can open the door he heard his boss saying, " Tell her to start tomorrow." Morris who heard his boss talking immediately turn back to face his boss he just remains where he is standing and look in the direction of his boss. After hearing the instruction he just nods then left. In his mind, his boss is maybe interested in this person that makes him change his mind to hire a female executive assistant because he clearly remembers that he despises hiring the opposite gender as it always turns to have an ulterior motive to him.
In the market, Cass is walking while pushing a cart in front of her then occasionally stop to get her needs and put them in the cart. After putting all the things she needed in the cart, she went to the teller to pay when she was about to reach the teller her phone suddenly rang. She stops then pick up her phone in her pocket then answered, "Hello?"
"Good Morning I presume this is Miss Lim, I am from Stanley Manufacturing this is to inform Miss Lim that you are hired, and Mr. Stanley wants you to start tomorrow." Cass was stunned upon hearing what the other side is talking, stunned to the point that she didn't react in several minutes. When she came back from her senses, all she could utter is just a simple "Ok Sir." before she could say another word the person in the other line said " Miss Lim please be on time, that's all." then he hangs up. She really not expected this outcome. After paying for her groceries she immediately makes her way home, she can't deny in her heart that she is very much excited, she not only come for an interview tomorrow but she is already hired! She is hired! She suppresses her excitement so she could prepare herself for tomorrow.
After getting home she began to prepare for tomorrow like choosing her outfit because she doesn't have many clothes especially for work, she plans to buy them after she can receive her first salary. This job is her dream after finishing her study so she has to be presentable and well prepared to face her journey with this job. Unable to keep her astonishment she called her best friend Liz and told her the significance of this day. Liz is so happy upon knowing that her friend has found a job that she dreamed of. So she just wishes her good luck and didn't forget to remind her like a mother whose daughter is going to be married tomorrow. The night has come and Cass eats her dinner absentmindedly until she finishes her food she takes a quick shower then lays on her bed comfortably. Her mind is wandering again until she drowns into the deep of her sweet dreams. She dreams of a man who is standing few meters away from where she was standing, he is so handsome even if it is only his back facing her she knows he is so handsome and. His temperament is very calm but there has to be a domineering aura that she felt even if not looking for his fave directly.
She was awakened by a loud ringing that she felt annoyed bit when she realizes that it is her alarm clock who awaken her, she immediately sat up and realize that she's only dreaming but it feels like true.
She immediately prepare for herself to go to work, today is her first day of work she can't afford to be late.
The working hour would usually start at eight o'clock but today Josh come to his office an hour before the work will start, deep inside him he anticipated her this time. From the last time, they meet she is always in his mind. Sipping his coffee while occationally looking outside his wall to ceiling window, he leans his back in his chair. Cass is standing on the roadside a few meters away from her apartment waiting for a taxi to pass by, after a minute of waiting finally she hailed the taxi and got inside. She told the driver where she is going, when she arrived at the huge building of Stanley manufacturing she can't deny to herself that she was in awe and almost can't believe that she would be working in this company from now on. Upon arriving she trotted towards the front desk, but before she could speak the person in charge smiled then greet her politely, " Good morning Miss may I know who is your name please?" Cass answered," Goodmorning, I am Cass Lim
Cass entered her apartment, she closes the door but did not go directly into her room instead, she leans her back on the door and pondered for a while. Does she think if this continues who's a woman that won't fall for that outstanding man? only an idiot one. A few minutes later cass is preparing for her dinner in the kitchen after cooking she immediately fed herself then wash the dishes. She got in a shower before going to bed because of her work she felt a little exhausted maybe because she's new for the work so her system is still in adjustment. When her back touches on the bed she immediately drifted away to sleep. Whoever in the spacious villa, Josh called his best friend Robert to come for a drink or two. Robert who knows his best friend better, said " You know? I have never seen you like this before and it never crosses my mind that someday my best buddy will be infatuated by a girl who he just meet." he said with a teasing smile. Josh stared at him wit
It's been a long night, and I'm not sure if it is fun going to a pub when I need to wake up early for work after tonight. My eyes feel gritty, and there's an ache stretching across my shoulders maybe this is because I slept in one position the whole night. Damn, how I wish I could crawl back into my bed until the pain in my shoulder will dissipate before I could get up and start another day for this week. But I was perplexed when I looked at my alarm clock on my bedside table and found out that I only have thirty minutes to prepare to go to the office. So I am rushing everything to consume the time, less than I usually did. Truly the time comes fast as it was. In the blink of an eye, it becomes an hour. An hour becomes a day and a day becomes a week without realizing it. Today, I become one month working as executive assistant of my outstanding Yummy boss. Oh my God! what was I thinking? The time and days that we spend working together make us more familiar with each other. We work
I felt tired while walking towards the parking area of the famous cuisine in city A. This day I only stayed three hours in my office after that three hours, I was out for a client after a client meeting. Even for lunch I still had to talk to a business partner. I don't even have time to break at least an hour of not facing those opportunists individual. I inwardly sigh at that thought, I can't do anything about it that's how business works. I sat down inside my car, my driver who is sitting in the driver's seat to look at me through the rearview mirror of my car, and I don't need to question him what was that look for. I told him to send me home. He nodded politely before starting the car and drove away through the crowded road. It is a wee hour so naturally, there's a traffic jam along the way but fortunately, it is not that bad this time, we still arrive early as we expected. As I reached the door of my house, I took out my keys I open the door and went inside. I place the
It is my second week of the second month of working with Stanley Corporation. Today is Tuesday, I have been waiting for a taxi for more than thirty minutes but there is not even one. When I was about to lose my patience Mr. Satnley's car stop right in front of me. He said with a smiling face," Good Morning Miss Lim, If your okay I can give you a ride." I who is looking at his smiling face was intimidated by his smile again. But I immediately mask it. I nodded my head then said, "Thank you, Mr. Stanley," while getting in the car and putting on my seatbelt as well. We arrived at the building in less than twenty minutes. I am the one who got out of the car first. I thank him again then go in first because he will park his car in the parking area reserved for his car. when I'm thanking him he just nodded his head without uttering a word. I rashly go up to my office. I don't need to Go to Mr. Stanley's office this instant because I already put the things as well as his schedule for today
It's Monday and I am back to work. Today was different I don't know why. Today seems too busy than the other day. There's a lot of work. Work has been filing and filing without stopping. Soon the day is about to end but my work is not yet done. Until its already seven in the evening but I am not still done with those works. I was not able to eat my lunch because I forgot the time. It was exhausting I was finally done with today's work and it is already eleven o'clock in the evening. I kept everything in place before I left. I was left with a little energy. I take a cab not wanting to disturb uncle ben. I almost fall asleep during the ride. I just try to keep my eyes open until I reach my apartment. As soon as I reach my apartment I plopped down on my couch and dozed off. I didn't even bother to change my clothes or have something to eat.. That's how tired I was. I was awakened by the sunrise shining in my face. I open my eyes look in the direction of the light from the
I woke up early as usual and do my morning routine as always. I Have to go to the office this day and in the evening is the ball which makes me excited because my date is my assistant that I like. And tonight would be my plan for my first step on pursuing her. I have to take it easy so as not to embarrass myself also. After getting ready, I got in my car and drove towards my company. When I arrived at the parking lot, I vaguely see a figure of a woman walking towards the lift. The figure looks like Cass, She is so early today. Actually, I feel sorry for her for how many days of keeping her busy but I can't help it I really need her assistance so that it could be completed before the targeted time. Thanks for my diligent assistant its really done ahead of the requested time frame. I'm walking towards my office while passing by the office of Cass I stole a glance at her and I can see a glimpse of happiness. And she looks refresh maybe because I let her rest yesterday. I get inside my
There it was, a red blood ball dress. It looks amazing and magnificent. It was an off-shoulder with heart shape corset and princess style. It was just unbelievable. Beside it was a red plump that had sparks of gold in the heels. What was Liz thinking? anyway, she's good at the things like that so she has to be a good taste. I sighed I had no other choice. I was thinking about how I would going to style my hair when I heard a knock on the door. When I open it," Hi miss Lim right? I was sent by Mr. Stanley to help you for tonight." she said politely. It turns out Mr. Stanley hired a person to put on makeup and style my hair for me. Very thoughtful indeed. " Okay, Thank you. Please come in." I said while letting her inside my apartment. " It's okay MMiss Lim, I think Mr. Stanley deserves your gratitude. I am just a person paid by him to beautify you tonight but I can see the reason why Mr.Stanley is doing this to you." She said with a smile on her face. Hearing what she say
