Morning turned into afternoon, when Ryan, Zenith and Michael finally arrived at the company.
While Ryan headed straight to his office, Zenith paused by her desk with Michael behind her. For a moment, she forgot about him. She took the files and was heading to sort them out when she saw him and was reminded again.
Closing her eyes briefly, she chided herself before quickly turning to him to say, "Michael, I am really sorry. I almost forgot about you. I still have to get you into my habit. I hope you don’t mind it."
Michael smiled politely and shook his head. "No, Ms. Zane. I completely understand it. It’s still my first day, so ..."
Zenith smiled. "Everyone had their first days. Don’t worry, you will be able to manage everything here soon. But before that, let me help you get the desk first." She turned around to check, and soon her eyes caught an empty desk parallel to hers.
She pointed at it and said, "You can take that one and arrange it as per your preference."
Michael turned to look and nodded. When he turned back to her, she asked, "No, you tell me, you do want to take a seat there and rest for a while? Or would you like to jump straight to work?"
He still looked young, so Zenith didn’t want to make it too hard for him on the very first day.
"I will get to the work."
"That’s better," she appreciated before looking down at the file in her hand. "Let me brief you about this project, then. Once you know about it, you can take it to the sir. He would be asking for it soon."
He nodded, and Zenith slowly started briefing about every detail that was crucial. Once she was done, she handed the file to him and cued him. "Now, you are prepared. Take it to the sir. And if he asks you anything, you know what you have to answer.
Michael nodded and took the file from her.
Meanwhile, in the office, Ryan was about to ring Zenith up to bring the recent project file when the knock at the door interrupted him. "Come in," he said, and Michael entered.
"Sir, I brought the recent project file. Secretary Zane said you would be looking for this."
Ryan’s brows drew in a tight frown as his gaze darted to look at the file with unconcealed fury.
Meanwhile, at the same time at East Serenity Residence —
After giving Brenda her medicines, Margaret was helping her to bed when Xander came knocking at the door. She frowned a little and asked him to wait; however, Brenda noticed it and asked him to enter the room instead.
"What is it, Xander?" Brenda asked.
Xander’s gaze darted to look at Margaret with a hesitation clearly evident in them. "Madam, you just took the medicine. Please rest. I was just here to inform Ms Marie about something. I will do it later, it’s not very important."
Brenda stared at Margaret before turning again to Xander. "Why do you have to do it later when you could do it now. Margaret is here. Tell her whatever you are here for."
