“This will be my office now.“
Luna froze. After a long while, she widened her eyes in delight. “Are you here to work?“
Alice shot her an irritated glare. “Of course!“
Alice did not know why Joshua had suddenly insisted on sending her to work in Luna’s department, and as her assistant, no less! She slept so soundly that morning when, all of a sudden, Joshua woke her and demanded she go to work. Of course, she was frustrated by that, but she did not dare protest.
What ruffled Alice’s feathers the most was Joshua’s instructions. He had informed her beforehand that no matter what, she would have to obey Luna’s orders.
The worst part was that Joshua did not allow her to take credit for Luna’s work after the project was completed.
Alice could not understand any of this. She was the CEO’s wife, for God’s sake! How could she work as a lowly assistant, and for Luna, no less?
Although her official job title was as an assistant, Alice knew that her responsibilities were to take care of everything Luna did not want to or did not have the time to. She could not even be late or leave work early. No matter how late it was, as long as Luna was still in the office, Alice also had to be there.
Alice grew more and more frustrated when she thought of it. She angrily hurled the rest of the items
on Luna’s desk onto the floor. ”Get rid of all these useless things ! I don’t want to see them anywhere near me! ”
Luna felt her mood lift when she registered how infuriated Alice was. She smiled, kneeled onto the ground, and picked up the documents Alice had strewn all over the floor. ”What position did Mr. Lynch assign you to do?”
Alice rolled her eyes in indignation. ”Your assistant.” Assistant?
