Watching Brandon leave, Natalie was unconsciously grinning from ear to ear.
The feeling of having a high and mighty CEO work for her was just too satisfying! 1
However, her satisfaction was only temporary. Natalie waited and waited in the office, but her appointment never arrived.
Natalie felt something was wrong.
She hurriedly went out to check on the situation.
Suddenly, her lips twitched, and she was speechless when she saw the way Brandon was attending to a client.
His face was expressionless as he spoke, and the client looked a bit flustered being next his intimidating and cold aura.
Natalie quickly caught Brandon’s eyes and signaled to make him smile.
An assistant shouldn’t treat clients with such a cold and distant attitude!
Receiving the hint from his “boss”, Brandon forced out a stiff smile.
His smile was so fake and insincere. It made him look anything but friendly.
The client looked even more flustered when he saw Brandon’s smile. He chuckled awkwardly before making up some excuse to flee.
Witnessing the client’s hasty escape, Natalie was fuming. “Assistant Larson, is this how you treat our clients?” she snapped. Brandon blinked innocently and defended himself, “Isn’t this how you welcome clients? He asked me a question earlier, and ] patiently answered. You told me to smile, and I did!”
He wasn’t wrong, so Natalie had no reason to refute him.
She could only take a deep breath to calm herself down before asking, “Was he the only client we have scheduled for today?” Brandon shook his head. “There were two more who came,” he replied.
Pursing her lips, she asked, “Then where are they? Did you scare them off too?”
A rare resentful expression appeared on Brandon’s face as he replied righteously, “They said ] looked like Brandon Larson and even asked for my contact information. Of course, I can’t go easy on the women who try to flirt with me.”
Brandon’s argument made Natalie both exasperated and frustrated. She couldn’t help heaving a sign.
Natalie has a helpless look on her face when she met Brandon’s eyes. “Do you see now an assistant’s work is not easy as you thought?” Brandon looks at the empty reception room and nodded. Not one client was insight. “I indeed underestimate assistants,” he acknowledged honestly. Before he thought working as an assistant wasn’t challenging at all. He wasn’t anticipating that engaging with clients could be so tricky. Many of Natalie’s clients only had an idea of what they wanted and no specific design required. More often than not, their ideas were vague concepts that were difficult to put into words, making it almost impossible to understand what they were looking for if you were not well adept with the trends.
As an assistant, part of the work was to give a complete picture of their vague concepts by dissecting each and every idea they had. That was the only way to make sure that the client and the designer were on the same page regarding the design and that the finished product would be a perfect work the client would be satisfied with.
