Chapter 26: Letting the secretary know her place

“Thank you!” Grey said into the receiver and dropped the call. He was starting to get tired of receiving calls. He stood up to get lunch. It was lunchtime but he had been receiving customer calls.

The only reason why he would reconsider his decision of telling Alfred to take him to another department was that Alfred provided him with an office, so he would have privacy.

He entered the cafeteria and ordered Hamburger with Americano. He settled down to eat, then remembered that he had left his phone in his office.

He hadn‘t seen Jane since that morning and he wondered what she was up to. Though, he knew that Alfred would deal with her accordingly.

Within minutes, he was done eating and decided to resume office quickly. Just as he entered the lobby, it was Cindy that he saw.
