It was her first day at work, and she needed to look like the real secretary to the CEO of Ingot Inc.She stood in front of the mirror, looking at her Monday outfit. She had packed her long hair up into a ponytail, and she had worn a red pair of palazzo pants and a black off-shoulder long-sleeved top, tucking it into her pants.To complete her outfit, she wore black stiletto heels, clutching in her hand, a black handbag. She took out her jewelry box, bringing out a gold necklace with her name on it.She wore red lipstick, using the gel to style the edges of her hair. Somehow, she wanted to dress sophisticated, showing that she was the new boss around.Her outfit exuded an aura of a powerful woman. She let out a sigh and smiled. She walked out of her apartment, and locked it.She had already booked a ride, so at the exact time, the chofer drove to the front of her apartment, and she stepped in."Good morning," she greeted."Buenos dias, senora," he said in Spanish.He didn't seem to re

"You needed to see how they treated me like some kind of big and influential celebrity!" Quinn squealed, as she spoke with Vera."I'm so happy for you, Quinn. You are so strong, even after everything that happened, you still pulled through like nothing ever happened. If it were me, I'd commit suicide," Vera responded, admiring Quinn's resilience."Stop flattering me, Vera. I cannot give up on life, yet. My parents did, but I won't. Whatever the challenges may be, I will face it, and walk through it victoriously," she ascertained.Before Vera could reply, Kim walked inside."Oh, Quinn. Kimberly is here," she said, turning to Kim, "come speak with Quinn."Kimberly rushed to sit beside Vera. Her facial expression changed, as she saw Quinn."Quinn!" She screamed, causing Vera to shut her ears."Hi, Berley! I miss you so much," Quinn voiced out, grinning."I miss you more, bestie! When will you come back?" She asked, but Quinn's smile began to fade."I don't think I'll return to Florida an

"Good day, sir. Are you busy, please?" Quinn asked, holding her phone and a file in her hand.He looked away from the screen of the computer and adjusted his glasses. "No, why?"She moved closer, "there is something I would like to discuss with you if you don't mind.""Sure, go ahead and sit down," he requested, pointing at the chair in front of him.She nodded with a small smile, and sat down, placing the file on the table in front of her. She adjusted the seat forward and cleared her throat."The thing is, when I first arrived in Spain, I wanted to start up a small business, but Spain is not my home country, and I barely know if my business would excel if I started it immediately. So, I thought of working with any company to gain knowledge and collaborate with the company on a project or two."I went to a business school in Los Angeles, so I have enough knowledge about business modeling and how to run a successful business. What I'm saying, in essence, is that I would like to partne

"Senorita Ro, you will handle the project for the company's annual celebration that is coming up in three weeks," the CEO said, as they all gathered in the large room for a general meeting."Me?" She whispered, shocked at the revelation.Although she was still referred to as a new staff, she knew that the annual celebration was not an easy project to plan."But senor, I thought that the project is usually given to people that have been in the company for more than two years," Quinn voiced out, hoping that the project would be passed on to someone else."Yes, you are correct, senorita Ro. However, for this year's celebration, you will be in charge of the project. We believe in your potential and capability, and we chose you to be the project lead. Don't we all agree? Or does anyone have an objection?" He said, turning to everyone in the room."No objection, senor!" They chorused almost at once.He smiled, "you can do this." He turned to Eva, "Eva was our project lead for the annual cel

She was the team leader, and she was sure of all the guests that were invited. She had gone through all of them, and she could even tell their names without looking at the list.The CEO followed her line of vision and realized that she was staring at Gerald's table."Oh, I forgot to add them to the list I gave you, so I gave them a personal invitation," he told her, as he noticed how surprised she looked."Oh, okay," she feigned a smile and bowed out of the podium.She looked down, refusing to look at the crowd, as she made her way to the employees' table, where she sat beside Eva."What happened? I noticed your mood suddenly changed," Eva expressed, whispering to her."Nothing, I just saw someone I never wanted to see."Eva tried to think hard about it, and finally, it clicked on her who Quinn was referring to."Wait, he is here?" She asked, widening her eyes as Quinn nodded in confirmation, "How's that possible?" She asked, almost raising her voice."Shh, be quiet," Quinn reminded h
