“The guests are on their way, but my office is still dirty. The cleaningdy did a Lousy job. You need to


    clean it again.”


    ‘Me? Cleaning? Yeah, you wish!’ ir refused, “I’m sorry, Filberta. I can’t. The guests will be here in


    Less than twenty minutes. I’m still working on the materials that need interpretation. Find someone else


    to clean!”


    Filberta, who was wearing smoky eye makeup, gaped at ir and berated,


    “I’m your supervisor! When I ask you to clean, you clean! Besides, you’re so brilliant. I think you’ll do a


    better job cleaning.”

    ir wasn’t provoked. She retorted with a smile, “Yes, you’re my supervisor. I’m wondering-will you


    take the fall if something goes wrong with the uing meeting? After all, I’m supposed to be


    preparing the materials. If you’re preventing me from doing that, then do you want to do it? Or can you


    just tell the boss for me? Come on,


    I’m just a nobody. I don’t think I can take on so much responsibility.

    So can you do it for me?”


    Filberta’s face was dark as coal.


    “How dare you challenge me Like that!”


    “I’m just trying to do my job. The delegation is about to arrive. Need someone to clean? Grab a broom.


    I’m running out of time. So, if you’ll excuse me…” With that, ir left the office.


    She was telling the truth. If she spent the time cleaning Filberta’s office, she wouldn’t have enough time


    to prepare for the meeting. If she screwed up, she would get fired. Maybe that was her supervisor’s


    intent all along.


    At 7:30 a.m., ir followed Percy to the front doors to meet the guests.


    As they stood outside, several stark ck and shining Bentleys slowly came to a halt in front of the


    office building. Percy walked up to greet the guests and ir followed him closely. She had to be ready


    for her job.


    The chauffeurs opened the doors and some blond-haired men d in drab business suits got out of the


    cars. ir recognized a couple of faces, and she was agape in astonishment. One of those men, a


    young one, considering the age of everyone else, was smiling at her. He was her friend, Orion. They


    had met in Ennd. The older man in the Lead among the guests was his father, who was a business


    tycoon. Though they had been out of touch, it was still a pleasant surprise seeing a familiar face.


    ir waved secretly at Orion.


    What a coincidence!


    Since she had to stay close to Percy to interpret for him, she barely had a chance to catch up with


    Orion. Orion understood.


    Percy showed the guests around the office, and then they proceeded towards the conference room.


    Before the meeting started, there was a short break for everyone to settle down. ir and Orion talked


    in a quiet ce.


    “Hey… Orion, are you working with your father in business now?” she asked.


    “Yes. My father is getting on in years. He doesn’t look it, but he is not in too good a shape this year. As


    his only son, I think it is my duty to continue his business. To be frank, though, I don’t want to be a


    businessman.”


    ir smiled.


    “I understand. It’s a pity that you can’t surf as much as before. I know how much you Love it. But hey,


    you can still do it in your spare time.“ Orion was a surfing fiend. When they had been in


    Ennd, he had spent almost all of his free time at the beach.


    “That’s all I can hope to do, huh?” he shrugged helplessly.


    “What about you? How are things at work? It looks like we’re going to see each other more often in the


    future.”
