Please Be Gentle With Me Mr Grant novel Chapter 108

After walking out of the HR, Blanca came to the creative department. Anna Gregor was the department manager. She, about thirty, looked pretty smart.

Anna arranged Blanca’s desk and said, “It’s your first day in our department. I am not going to assign you tasks, but you should read this employee handbook first.”

“OK.” Blanca nodded and took the handbook. Then she sat at her desk and read it carefully. Before long, she was getting sleepy. She tried her best to remember the contents in the book, but she found she got a memory like a sieve.

At the end of the day, Anna asked Blanca to do a summary for the day’s work. Blanca nodded obediently. She was not so good at writing, as well as using a computer. For this reason, while everyone else was off work, she was still typing.

It was getting dark, but Blanca’s work was not yet done. She looked anxious for she was not good at typing. She felt a little angry with herself, but she didn’t stop what she was doing. Several hours later, when she finished her last document, she rubbed her eyes and stretched to relax.

“Are you finished?” said a voice behind her.

Blanca looked around, and saw Matthew standing near her. In the lamplight of the office, Matthew’s face was gentler. “Why are you here?” asked Blanca brightly.

“This is my company.”

“Oh! Silly me!” Blanca said awkwardly. She had heard something about Matthew from Curtis before. He said Matthew was a workaholic. Except for work, he was not interested in anything.

After clearing her desk, Blanca stood up and said, “I’m finished. It’s time to get off.”

“You definitely should have already been gone.” Matthew looked around the empty office and looked displeased.

Blanca smiled awkwardly. “I’m sorry I forgot to take a look at the time.”

Matthew didn’t speak. His time was important but he had been waiting ten minutes here.
