"Do you have an appointment," asked the receptionist.
Zack shook his head. "Unfortunately, no."
"Here is the thing, mister. Mr. Marsh is at a meeting." The receptionist checked Ivan's schedule. "After the meeting, he has an important project negotiation. In the afternoon, he had two video conferences."
Then she looked up and added, "Anyway, his schedule is full today. If you want to see him, you can make an appointment, and it'll be next Monday at the earliest."
Zack knew Ivan was super busy but didn't expect his hands to be THAT full.
"Mister, would you like to make an appointment?"
The receptionist smiled at him. "If so, I can register you and submit it for approval. I'll inform you on the phone after it's done."
When Zack was lost in thought, an elevator's doors slid open.
Jennifer walked out in her high heels. Shortly after, she saw a familiar figure in the lobby.
Jennifer stopped mid-step, looking over.
'It's him... Why is he here?'
Seeing Zack talking to the receptionist, Jennifer strode towards them.
"Good day, Ms. Brooks," the receptionist greeted her respectfully.
Zack followed her gaze and saw Jennifer.
She looked pretty and innocent. Her hair and eyes were ink-black, and she emanated a unique temperament.
"Good day, Mr. Clarke."
Jennifer smiled at the mid-aged man. "Are you here to see someone?"
Before Zack answered, the receptionist hurriedly replied, "Ms. Brooks, this gentleman is looking for Mr. Marsh, but he hasn't had an appointment."
"It's alright." Jennifer darted at her and said gently, "Let me handle it. You can go back to work."
