At the mention of Zion, the lady’s eyes twinkled in admiration as if she idolized Zion. Paige, on the other hand, was reminded of the incident the night before and she felt the soreness around her back kicking in. An affair? What's the matter? It was a tragedy. Paige cursed under her breath and rolled her eyes. She then staggered awkwardly back to her office. As she passed a glass door, Paige was startled by her reflection. The cleaners resigned for some time. Hence, the glass doors were not all that clean, but Paige could still notice the dark circles underneath her eyes along with her pale complexion. However, the mustache on her face still looked good. It did not matter whether she was disguised as someone else, Paige cared about being presentable. Hence, she quickly fixed herself until she was satisfied before returning to her office. She was about to make a cup of tea to soothe herself from the shock she got last night. However, no matter how hard she tried to get water in
“Why would I call the cops? I’m just hoping that someone would save me from dying from thirst and hunger,” Paige answered as she slouched over the desk and sighed helplessly, “at this rate, I could even eat this desk.”Paige spent the entire time trying to matchmake Zion with someone but she ended up being tortured instead of him. At that rate, she might end up becoming the first person to die in their own company. Just when Paige felt dizzy, she heard Vincent calling out to her. Though he especially enjoyed teasing her, Vincent was still a reliable friend. Seeing how Paige was in a bad condition, he comforted her. “Don’t worry too much. Mrs. Flynn guessed that you were not doing well, so she had me check on you.”Earlier that morning when Estelle woke up, she felt ominous. After going through a list of people that she knew, Estelle thought that there was a high chance for Paige to be in trouble. She did not want to trouble Skyler to go to Remington, hence she contacted Vincent ins
She wanted to stop Vincent but she thought that it was not a good idea to tell an outsider that Yoel Fabian had no say in the company. Hence, she could only watch Vincent walk into the office and do nothing. Even though only twenty minutes passed, Paige felt as if she waited for an entire decade. As soon as she heard a knock on the door, she stood up from her chair right away. After seeing that it was Vincent, she said excitedly, “Hurry up, where’s the stuff? You might need to bring me a coffin instead if I were to wait any longer.”“You don’t look like you’re dying from hunger,” Vincent could not help but laugh. He pushed the luggage to her and said to her pleasedly, “Here, everything you need is in there both food and drinks. Oh and the fast food that I got for you is on the way.”Vincent planned to add more stuff into the luggage but he was worried that the luggage might burst if he were to add more. However, to Paige, the stuff that he got her was already more than enough. Wit
The clock was ticking and seeing how the attendees got impatient, Zion’s secretary had no choice but to speak up. He was put in charge of carrying out the meeting that day, but seeing how Zion did not show up, he announced to the attendees. “Manager Zion might be running a little late as he might be handling something urgent. Everyone, please have a cup of coffee while we wait a little longer.”Right then, the staff from the front desk walked into the meeting room with a cart filled with cups of coffee. She handed everyone a cup of coffee and when she passed Paige, she said to her, “This is from Manager Zion’s account.”“Don’t worry, I understand,” smiled Paige before adding, “after all, we can’t even afford to pay the water bills.”Paige left it there and did not say anything further. The staff looked awkward so Paige quickly commented, “This seems to be the first time Manager Zion’s running late, right? I’m sure the free coffee tastes good but if everyone were to solve problems wi
"I know, and I’m reflecting on myself," Paige tried her best to do what she could, and since she was disguised as Yoel Fabian, she had nothing to lose. Hence, she continued, "I’ve made up my mind to learn from Manager Zion but for some reason, he’s not willing to teach me." She did not bother to lower her voice. People started looking at her and they seemed confused. They thought that Yoel was clearly messing around and if Zion did run away, he must have been forced by him. While they were in the middle of a conversation, Zion’s secretary was in no mood to deal with them. While coming up with a way to reassure the higher-ups, he continuously tried to call his assistant to urge him. His assistant had no choice but to drive around at the fastest speed around the town to locate Zion.Just when the assistant was about to reach where Zion was staying, he finally received a call from his boss. On the other end of the call was Zion’s depressing voice asking him, “Where are you right now?
The secretary knew that Zion was not the type to be joking around. He gasped and exclaimed, “How can there be kangaroos in our country? Manager Zion, could it be that someone is searching for their enemy? Hold on, I’ll file a report to the cops and have them look into it!”The meeting room was immediately in an uproar. Almost everyone in the meeting room was intrigued and fascinated by the fact that a kangaroo was spotted in the country. Someone sneered, “You’re lying, aren’t you? We’re not even in Australia.”Another person immediately argued, “Kangaroos? Could it be that you had a bit too much to drink? This is just too far-fetched.”“Even if there was a kangaroo, it wouldn’t possibly start a fight with someone, right?”“I don’t think this is something you’d experience from being drunk, could it be that you took drugs…”Before the person could finish his sentence, Zion’s secretary glared at him. Zion interrupted the ongoing commotion. “There’s no need to call the cops. I don’t
Paige secretly headed toward the fire exit to get the uniform and cap that she hid earlier. Staring at the cap with one of its kangaroo ears missing, Paige reluctantly prepared a stash of cash as compensation for the delivery guy. To avoid being spotted by anyone, Paige did not take the lift but instead, she sneaked downstairs and charged toward the guardhouse, like a culprit fleeing from a crime scene. Just when she was about to hide the items in her hands, she heard a voice calling out to her. “Mr. Fabian? What a coincidence! I was about to retrieve my belongings and here you are,” It was the delivery guy from earlier. He was full of smiles as he continued, “I think fate must have brought us together.”Paige hurriedly pulled him aside and whispered, “Shh! No one should know about the fact that I borrowed your uniform.”“Oh, sure thing!” The delivery guy was puzzled but as Paige was a regular customer, he simply nodded his head. Paige then returned him the uniform, cap, and th
He was efficient in carrying out his job. With a convincing excuse of investigating the food delivery into the company, Zion’s secretary checked every employee’s desk that attended the team building. The employees thought that Zion came up with a way to put Yoel into a tight spot, hence most of them were happy to help out.Though he worked alone, Zion’s secretary quickly finished checking all the possible places for someone to hide the kangaroo cap. He wondered if Zion’s affair last night was nothing but a trap.Since nothing was found among the employees’ cubicles, there was only Yoel’s office that he was yet to check. As Zion’s secretary, he too did not care about Yoel’s position as the director. Hence, without even knocking on the door, he was about to barge into the office but only to find that the door was locked. “What are you doing?” A panting sound was heard. The secretary was startled and turned around. His eyes met Yoel’s and he quickly came up with an excuse. “Manage
