Naughty CEO's Secret

Chapter 10: Meetings, Meetings, Meetings

Beck stayed in Kenzo's office for over an hour. They never came out to say anything about the women's underwear I dropped in there. Or about me slamming Kenzo's office door so much. Although, I feel like maybe I should stop doing that before it gets me fired.

I spent that hour going over Kenzo's schedule, trying to memorize it. Mr. Suzuki is much busier than Ted ever was. Ted had meetings here and there. Sometimes three times a week, four at the most. Kenzo though.. Kenzo has multiple meetings a day.

Today he is supposed to be meeting with Beck from 9-11. Then Mr. Suzuki is having lunch with a CEO from a partnering buisness. At 1 p.m. he has a meeting with the head of the advertising department. After that he has one last meeting at 3:30, but all it has is a name.

Mrs. Suzo.

I wonder who that is. I don't recognize the name. Does she work for another partnering company? Maybe she is new here?

I wouldn't really know about stuff like that. I always kept to myself after finding out that everyone here hates me. I had no problem with that though. Maybe I should try to learn more now though. Now that I'm the CEO's secretary.

Jeez, I can't believe that this is happening to me. I still have no idea what I'm doing here. I should have asked Kenzo more questions.

Like, why did he chose me? What could I possible offer to him that his old secretary couldn't? What makes him think that I would be good at handling his face paced life?

I didn't even ask what my pay would be like. Surely I got a raise with this 'promotion'. It better be a damn good one too. And I should tell him I want a bonus for every pair of panties I find. Yeah, that's exactly what I'm going to do. As soon as I get an opportunity.

The door to Kenzo's office opened up making me jump slightly. I didn't turn around though. I'm sure Beck will say something to me on his way out.

"Good work Beck, keep it up." Kenzo said.

I smiled at that. At least he is a boss that can recognize good work when he see's it. That's not something you see often these days.

"I will see you tomorrow to go over more." Beck said.

I kept my eyes on the computer screen as I waited for Beck to pass. I heard Kenzo shut his office door. Softly, unlike my slamming all morning.

"See that Opal?" Beck asked. "That is how you properly shut your bosses door." He said amused.

I looked up to narrow my eyes at him.

"I feel that I have every right to be angry." I stated.

Beck chuckled.

"I'm not saying your feelings aren't validated. That's why Kenzo is letting your bratty attitude slide." He said.

Bratty attitude?

Beck paused behind me. He bent down until I could feel his hot breath tickle my ear. I held my breath as my face heated.

"He won't let it keep happening though. I suggest that you behave yourself. Unless you like getting punished." He whispered teasingly.

"P-punished?" I breathed out.

Why is my heart racing like this?

Suddenly, Beck stood back up straight. I turned my chair around to face him. Beck straightened his tie, and gave me a wide smile.

"See ya later Opal."

Then he was gone.

I frowned at the doorway the Beck just walked out of. Over the last couple hours I've seen several people coming, and going down the hall. It seems that the top floor is broken up in sections. The CEO has his own big office, and apparently so does his secretary.

I guess that's nice though. Not a lot of people here to bother me, but not completely silent either. I could get used to that. Nice background noise, while no one bothers me. Perfect.

My office phone started to ring startling me. I cleared my throat, and then picked up the phone.

"Mr. Suzuki's office." I answered cheerfully.

"You don't sound like June." Replied a male voice.

I rolled my eyes. Tommy from the front desk. I hate this guy. All he does is gossip. He's worse than the females here. I'm pretty sure he's the one that started that rumor about me.

"Is there something I can do for you?" I asked ignoring his comment.

"Oh, yeah. Could you please let Mr. Suzuki know that his car has arrived? Thanks." Tommy said, and then hung up.

I blew out a breath before getting up from my chair. I knocked on Kenzo's door, and waited to be called in this time. Even though I really didn't want to.

"Mr. Suzuki, your car is downstairs waiting. You have lunch with Mr. Kanaoto." I told him.

Kenzo stood from his desk. He rolled down the sleeves of his fancy shirt. I watched as he rebuttoned the cuffs. Then he put on his suit jacket. I watched as his muscles strained against the material of his shirt.

Wow, he looks like he works out a lot.

"Thank you Opal." Kenzo said.

I gave him a nod as I stood to the side. Kenzo looked at his watch, and then rushed out of his office. I closed the door behind him. Then Kenzo paused abruptly to turn and face me.

"Please feel free to take your lunch. I won't be back for at least an hour." He told me.

I gave him a nod.

"Oh, and here."

Kenzo reached into his pocket to pull out his wallet. Then Kenzo handed me a black card with the company name on it. My eyes went wide.

"Uh, I can't take this." I said.

I tried to shove the card back to Kenzo, but he only pushed my hand back to me. Wow, his hands are big, and warm. In a comforting way.

"It's the company card. I need you to hold onto so that if I need you to pick anything up, you can no problem. I also allow my secretaries to use it for things like food, and drinks. Don't buy anything personal without asking me first." He told me.

With that, Kenzo turned, and walked away. I'm still standing in the middle of the room with my hand out, like an i***t. I looked at the card in my hand.

Kenzo gave me the company card. He must really trust me. I mean, he did say that he gives one to all of his secretaries though.

What did he mean to ask first before buying anything personal though? I wouldn't use the company money to splurge. That would be.. illegal right?

Unless the top boss says it's okay though, I guess. I think.. I'm honestly not sure how it would work. I do know that I will not be using it at all, unless it's for my boss.

I can afford my own things. My own lunch, coffees, and all of my personal things. I don't need Kenzo's money.

Still, that is very nice of him to do as a boss. I wonder if other secretaries have taken advantage of his kindness. Maybe that's why he said to ask first.

Ted would be the first to know if something like that happened though. I never heard anything about it, but maybe Ted wouldn't tell me something like that. I can see that Kenzo likes his privacy. So it would make sense for Ted not to say anything.

Why am I even thinking so hard about this? I need to get back to work. I returned to my desk, and tucked the card in my wallet.

Maybe I should give Emily a call, or Ted himself. I'm slightly afraid to go see him. It's clear that June does not like me, and I really don't want to make things worse for myself.

"What are you thinking so hard about?"

I looked up to see Eric standing in front of my desk. A bright smile across his handsome face. He looks really good today in his navy blue suit.

I rolled my eyes.

"What am I not thinking hard about?" I said with a laugh. "I just became the CEO's secretary. There is too much on my mind."

Eric nodded as he chuckled with me.

"Yeah, I bet that working for our boss is nerve wracking. It'll get easier. Hopefully. I hear he's kind of a hard ass." Eric told me.

Huh, Kenzo doesn't seem that way to me. I mean, I slammed his door several times, and didn't even get a talking to. Kenzo even praised Beck for doing a good job, and then gave me the company card. I thought all of that was pretty kind of him.

Maybe I am judging too quickly. Afterall, I know nothing about Kenzo. The same could be said for Eric though. All the things he knows could just be rumors. I'll just sit back, and watch until I can make my own conclusion.

"Anyways, wanna go have lunch?"
