“The Vice chairperson of the sunset road company won’t to speak to you about business. He was kinda insisting you would consider his offer once you listen to what he has for you. I stood before Mr. Warner's desk, my eyes fixed on his imposing figure.
"The Vice Chairperson of Sunset Road Company wants to meet," he said, his deep voice low and even.
I nodded, my heart racing with a steady speed.
Review the file," he added, his gaze piercing.
I nodded again, my eyes meeting his for a split second.
Do you wish to attend this meeting. Mr Warner” after what felt like an entire minute, he responded with
“ Mm” he made this sound to often, how was I to know if this was a yes or no. It could mean anything in this world and yet I was to work with that.you have a meeting in an hour time, “I had everything emailed to you and I made a copy of what it was about you can read it at your own pace then”
“You speak as tho, you won’t be accompanying me there, what about you go through the offer, when we get there and I forget anything, you could tell me”
I stared at big boss after that comment he made, this he really think his brain could allow him to forget anything as long as it was business, and what happened his sentences seem longer today, what happened to review the file , be prepared.but I wasn’t going to let my thoughts loud itself out. As you say, Mr Warner. This was a first and I hoped it was a last as well, I didn’t feel like going to a pile of files together when my brain cells didn’t even seem to want to cooperate with me. “ do you have any issue with the file” he said and I immediately declined, there was no where I was going to tell big boss that I didn’t feel like working or going through today with him but then I loved my life better. His gaze lingered around me for some time but through out the years I have learnt to mask my emotions or any facials I might have to the one I want them all to you, but I wasn’t going to underestimate the big boss of seeing right through my act.
As the silence between us stretched, I could feel Mr. Warner's gaze boring into me, as if searching for any hint of weakness or deception. I maintained my neutral expression, careful not to reveal anything that might give him an advantage.
Finally, he nodded, seeming to accept my assurance that I had no issues with the file. "Very well," he said, his deep voice low and even.
I nodded, taking mental notes of the key points I needed to review before the meeting. "Yes, Mr. Warner. I'll make sure to review the file thoroughly."
He nodded again, his eyes narrowing slightly as he studied me. "See that you do.
With that, he turned and walked back to his desk, dismissing me from his presence. I let out a silent breath, feeling a mix of relief and trepidation. I knew that I had to be on my toes when dealing with Mr. Warner, and I couldn't afford to let my guard down for even a moment or I could just fall for this handsome god infront of me. sat at my desk, it was heavy loaded with screens as that of the big boss but it was classic and it had a new makeover when I took over, and now it was pile up with all kinds of meeting dates and work schedules for later. It wasn’t even a second later before he called me but into his office. I walked steady to his office, I didn’t even trust my self to walk but I didn’t even trust my boss to make my day any better. “ you will be my plus one for up coming wedding” he said and I was anything but shocked. I was already his plus one for everything he did that consider work and I knew I was going to be at the wedding with him just as much as any business deals. “ okay” was all I said, I wasn’t going to pretend like I had everything about my life going perfect, just after he mentioned what I was trying to keep out of my mind. Without waiting for him, I went back to my seat. Whether he was offended or not he made no mention so it was fine by me then. It wasn’t that I was jealous of Brian or anything. I never felt like I wanted a family till now or even someone to go home to and all I went home to was a 40, 000 word long email. I had to send to my boss after making an analysis of the meetings we had. Working as the PA for someone like Warner wasn’t easy as most could see. He was always busy making me twice as business as other PA and I didn’t seem to complain a month ago but now i felt it was taking too much of my 20’s away from me. I don’t know how he did it but he was good at keeping the same face all the time.
As I sat back at my desk, I couldn't help but feel a sense of restlessness. Working for Mr. Warner was a demanding job, both physically and mentally. I had to be on call 24/7, ready to handle any task or emergency that came my way. It was exhausting, but it was also exhilarating. There was something about being part of Mr. Warner's inner circle that made me feel alive.
But lately, I had been feeling the strain. I was constantly tired, and my social life had all but disappeared. I had no time for friends, no time for family, no time for anything except work. And Mr. Warner.
I sighed, rubbing my temples. I needed to focus. I had a meeting to prepare for, and I couldn't afford to be distracted. I pulled up the file on my computer, scanning the documents and notes that Mr. Warner had sent me.
As I worked, I couldn't help but think about the upcoming wedding. Mr. Warner had told me that I would be his plus one, and I had agreed without hesitation. It was just another part of my job, after all.
