Chapter 13: Fake cheque

Grey stared harder at the list but he couldn’t avoid the dirty stare that the secretary was giving him as if he was some sort of bug.

He ignored her. He was supposed to act undercover anyways. He stared harder at the list and realized that some were starred.

He looked up at the secretary and she turned around quickly to avoid his gaze.

“The starring_,” he dragged, really not interested in explaining.

“Those stars mean that we don’t have a vacancy for it,” she turned around again and faked a smile. ” Will you like coffee or tea?”

Grey ignored her as well and felt her body go rigid. She seemed to have gotten angry.

“I will be the manager,” he said finally and placed the file on the table to look up at the secretary.

“But,” she started, with a dark frown on her face. “You saw that it was occupied already.”

“Yes, I did. I asked you,” he said softly.

” So, why occupy a position that has been occupied? Are you going to demote the employee?”

Grey watched her for a moment and stared down at the list, then back at her. “Were you the one that handed me this list right now? I seemed to have forgotten.”
