Emily didn’t know what to think about all the lovely things and benefits she had been receiving from those who worked at Taleman Incorporation. She met many kinds of people in her life, but it was the first time the copper-haired angel experienced a non-hostile, depressed or toxic environment full of giving and kindness. If she didn’t know she was still living on Earth, Emily might have mistaken Taleman Incorporation for Utopia.Initially, she accepted help from Annie because the HR Manager looked like a genuinely kind person who wished to help her not out of pity but concern. However, even after an introduction to some of the employees who lived in the upper-end apartment complex privately owned by the CEO, Emily discovered that Annie wasn’t the only nice person. The reason for their generosity wasn’t really for themselves either. It was for someone else.

Checking the things she packed, Emily couldn’t help but feel nervous. She didn’t know what to expect. Previously, she only tutored children from middle-income families with understanding parents. Emily didn’t know what she should be doing either because Annie didn’t tell her much. Even though she wasn’t required to teach today, the copper-haired tutor still felt it wasn’t right to go over for an entire day and do nothing productive.Her work started at ten in the morning because the CEO's house was about an hour’s drive from the staff dormitory. There weren’t any buses there, so she had to hail a taxi. Thankfully, the company fully reimbursed travel expenses, and Annie gave her a company cash card with a few hundred dollars worth to spend. As they were a little busy, it took a while to arrange for a more permanent driver, not that Emily minded. The cash card

Meeting after meeting, the day seemed like it would never end. Favian was coming back tomorrow, but Richard wished it was today instead. He sat on his bum for so long and barely managed to squeeze in a bathroom break, missing lunch entirely. The coffee he had grabbed since morning had long gone cold and sour on his desk by the time the last meeting concluded at four.The grumpy CEO sat down in his executive chair for the first time since morning and sighed. The growing number of urgent emails in his inbox reached triple digits, and Richard did his best to ignore the thousands of other emails waiting for him to sort because he wasn’t going to act on them unless one of his executives found him personally. Otherwise, they were merely written and sent to him out of courtesy to keep him in the loop of his business operations. He didn’t employ fools for exorbitant paycheques. They’d better be c

By the time Favian arrived at the side house, his headache from the lack of rest was severe enough to make his brain burst from his ears. Yet, nobody would be able to tell from his usual poker face. The only thing that would betray him was the colour beneath his eyes. Some of the pups might smell it, but Favian was good at concealing his weakness with a well-aimed glare.The secretary didn’t have much luggage when he travelled. Favian often preferred buying all his necessities for travel in other countries. Carrying things like toiletries and underwear could be a fuss, and sometimes, he would forgo the trouble of bringing clothes unless necessary. The perks of being rich meant being able to afford disposable items for light carrying. Richard would have lent Favian his private jet if it weren’t for his existing identity as a secretary.The side house

The air conditioning in the hypermart was powerful. Despite the many shoppers and employees, there was plenty of space for trolleys to go everywhere. Darren and Ludwig adhered to the rules and escorted the trolley Emily pushed. Like dutiful sentry guards, they scanned the area for potential danger and led the cart away when they veered too close to the aisles. Favian strolled behind Emily from a distance, checking his email and making calls while keeping an eye on them.After reaching an open area with less crowd, Emily showed the boys her shopping list. Although Darren couldn’t read as well as Ludwig, he managed to figure out half of that list.“This is a shopping list. We want to find everything on the list and add it to the cart. The hypermart is huge, so please do not get lost and run too far.
