Happy Reading . . .

***

It's not difficult to get an extra assistant willing to work for someone like Duke. Who wants to waste to be able to get the chance to work at McCarter's company? Only a fool would want to turn down an opportunity that would not come twice if still want to think about the job. And now, a woman already in Savannah's office, as if welcoming the arrival of the woman who had just arrived at the office, by the presence of a woman there.

A woman slightly taller than Savannah's build, has a slender body but some parts of the woman's body is much more contained compared to hers. Short blonde hair and face that is so attractive as a woman, makes her even more appropriate become a model compared to the candidate for the assistant before her later will be slightly interviewed by the boss, which until now has not arrived in his room.

"Hello good Morning. Are you Irina? The candidate summoned today?”

"Yes."

"I'm Savannah, the one who contacted you yesterday." She said that introduced herself while extending his hand towards the woman.

"Hey, nice to meet you too. Hearing from your voice yesterday, I already know that you are indeed a very friendly person.” The woman replied while returning Savannah's hand, until the two shook hands.

"Thank you. But I also don't mind if I can be one your best friend."

“It's great to meet someone like you, Savannah. And if I get accepted later, I will be very happy to have a co-worker like you.”

"Yes, I also really hope you can be accepted. And white table and big that was there. Will be yours, if you succeed melt the heart of the boss to be able to accept you as his assistant later." Savannah said while pointing at the work table that was right on the side of the table work of hers, having just been put there yesterday.

"I really hope. Having work experience at McCarter & co., this is one of my biggest dreams. And if it could come true, I would be the happiest people in this world. Many people want to work here and my rivals are also definitely not small in number. But I'm sure and will be very trying, to at least be accepted here according to dream I had.”

"Judging from your persistence, this is one of the main points liked by Sir Duke. He is a leader who really wants all his employees have the spirit of hard work. And if you can point it at the front, you have a very high chance of being accepted.”

"Is that true?"

"Yes."

“Then, is Sir Duke a boss?”

“He is the owner and chairman of McCarter & co. And, if you will be accepted. He will be your boss and you will only work for him."

"Then, may I know the nature of the Sir duke himself?"

“I think I'd extinguish this spirit you have, if I answer your question. But, what is clear here you are much demanded to be able to work fast, correct, precise, and not talk much. Trust me sir Duke will love the way you work in the near future if you are consistent. Your work performance is highly valued by him. So, work as hard as possible when you actually get accepted. And, those are just a few of my suggestions have for you. Do you understand?”

"I will do my best to do what you say. Thank you for wanted to give your advice."

"Yes, of course."

And not long after, Savannah saw the figure of her boss came and walked to his royal table from that translucent glass door.

“Sir Duke has come. One thing you should know when he's in to his office in the morning. That is, by immediately moving forward head over to this table to make him a cup of coffee,” said Savannah while walking towards the table in the corner of the room to make coffee, with Irina following from behind.

"What about the measure?"

"I'll let you know if after this you've been officially accepted."

"You are right."

After a while Savannah had finished making coffee, the woman immediately invited the prospective employee to follow his steps to the boss's room.

"Good morning, Sir. Here's your coffee, and your potential assistant candidate too already here.”

The words that were said by Savannah immediately made Duke who originally focused his gaze on the screen of the cell phone in hand, headed two female figures in front of them.

“This is the person I asked to contact yesterday?”

“Yes, Sir. It's true she's the candidate you asked to contact yesterday. Irina Harris. The best graduates who just got a degree a few months ago his scholar. Even though I don't have much experience with working in companies, but Irina was so recommended by several companies where she used to be his apprentice. Young and have qualifications to your liking.”

"Then you take it directly to the department of human resources for managing contracts and everything in there.”

"Yes, sir. Is there anything you need?”

"Where's my breakfast?"

"I will order, Sir. Then I'll be leaving first."

After giving the code by nodding her head to Irina so she can following her, Savannah stepped towards her back in his room and ready to start the day that will make her get super busy.

"Is that what Sir Duke called?" Irina asked while taking a step his feet followed Savannah's steps out of the office to the elevator. The floor of the human resources department is on the second floor up, making Savannah decide to drive Irina up to eventually meet with one of the employees there who will take care of some of the document requirements of the new employee.

"Yes. He was a Duke McCarter. Someone who has officially become your boss since you have been accepted as his assistant.”

“I didn't expect that the joint interview with him would end that fast. I didn't even introduce myself at all got to talk to him.”

“And, that is the nature of our boss. If that's what he wanted, then without further he immediately made his decision.”

"Like that? However, it seems...”

"Why? Do you feel starting to hesitate to be able to work for him after knowing one of those traits?” interrupted the direct Savannah asked Irina who seemed to be able to read her boss's character.

“Is he one of the boss who have a friendly nature with employee?"

"Hmm..., yes and no. He has volatile moods. So, we are the assistants. Who should be more patient and accept that one nature.”

“Then, since here you are my senior. Will you help me in any work that I will do later? Maybe until I adapted for a few weeks, and I felt used to it everything."

"Of course. I'd be happy to help you."

And when the elevator that the two of them were riding suddenly stopped and opened in the floor they didn't go to, apparently Dylan's figure was there and immediately stepped into the elevator where Savannah was.

"Hey, where have you been?" asked the woman with a smile towards. Dylan who had pulled Savannah's waist into his arms and don't forget to kiss the girlfriend's forehead briefly.

"Toilet. My floor was broken, so I went upstairs. Then, where do you want to leave?"

“Drove this new assistant beside me to the resources department. Oh, this is Irina, Duke's new assistant. And Irina, this is Dylan. He work in the accounting department,” Savannah said to each other introduced the two people beside her.

"Assistant?" Asked Dylan who made sure.

"Yes. Suddenly he asked for a second assistant to help my job."

"Sounds very unusual."

“But what can I do, other than do the thing to be that order?"

"Yes. You are right."

“So, do you want to get acquainted with Irina?”

"Yes, of course. Hello, Irina. Nice to meet you," Dylan said reached out to Irina who was also immediately greeted with a shaking hand.

"Nice to meet you too."

And after the two of them had gotten to know each other, the elevator had gone up on the floor of the human resources department.

"Okay. See you this afternoon. You owe me lunch, Sir."

"Sure, Darling. See you later."

After kissing each other on the lips, Savannah waved hand to his boyfriend as she stepped out of the elevator.

"So, Dylan is your boyfriend?" Irina asked Savannah.

"Is it too obvious?"

"Very. You guys look like love birds always in season marry. Do not want to separate and always want to show love between you to the people around.”

"Is that true? I feel bad for you for already show something like that.”

"No problem. I understand such a thing. I have too experience it."

"It feels so happy, doesn't it?"

"Yes, right. However, your boyfriend looks a bit like…”

"Duke?"

"Yes."

“Because it's true. Dylan is Duke's older brother. He is a McCarter."

"Is that true?" Irina said quite surprised.

"Yes."

“A McCarter. But why is your boyfriend working in the department finance? Shouldn't a McCarter be...”

“Yeah, you're probably not the first person to have such thoughts. But that's a matter for the McCarter family that shouldn't be known many people."

"Hmm..., okay. Sorry if I was too curious."

“No, no problem. You don't have to apologize just because already too curious.”

"But I still feel bad."

"No problem. You don't need to think about it. And this is the source section. You just have to wait here until you are called because I have contact my partner.” Said Savannah while showing her cellphone screen after she just sent a message to one of his colleagues in the human resources department.

"So, I just have to wait?"

"Yes, right. And while you're here, I have to do my job first formerly. No problem, right?”

"Yes of course. No problem, Savannah.”

"And after all your business here will be finished. You can go straight back to your desk, and ready to work. You remember the floor on our office, right?”

"Yes, of course." Irina replied with a chuckle.

"Okay. Then I'll leave you here, and see you at our office later."

After saying the farewell, Savannah immediately rushed over Irina left by stepping back towards to the elevator.

It was already eight in the evening, and Savannah was tidy up his desk to get ready to go home. But in while Savannah just turned off his computer screen, suddenly Irina just came back from Duke's room and immediately came over to Savannah's whereabouts looking a little uneasy.

“Savannah…” Irina called while occasionally looking at the situation in the room boss there.

"Yes," the woman replied by shifting her gaze towards Irina who standing in front of his desk.

“Sir Duke, asked me to have dinner with him. So what what should I do?”

“Hmm..., what else besides carrying out her wish, Irina? Do you want refuse the request from your boss?”

“But Sir Duke only asked me to have dinner together."

"Yes, then go. But if you feel uncomfortable and want refuse it, give a reasonable and clear reason. So, he will understand it."

"Like that?"

"Yes."

“But I feel bad if I refuse it. Apart from him who is my boss, today is my first day on the job.”

"Yeah, so you go with him then."

"Is it like that? But why should it be alone. It feels very awkward to me.”

“Irina, let's decide!” Exclaimed Savannah who wanted to give firmness for his coworker.

After a while Irina silent to think for a moment, figure Duke also came into the assistant's office and made the woman reflexively fell silent and averted her eyes to the man.

“Irina, I don't have much time. Do you want to have dinner with me or not?” Duke said straight to the point and without heeding it Savannah's presence that was so clearly visible was in the room that too.

“Hmm..., y-yes, Sir. I want it. But I want to clear my desk first."

"Five minutes of your time and I'll be waiting in the car."

"Yes, Sir."

After the man left the room, so did the two women immediately looked at each other and a little smile on the Savannah's face.

"Keep spirit! You have decided to accept the invitation to dinner. Then, you also have to do it sincerely."

“Actually I feel a little forced because I feel pressured at the sound of his voice."

“Come on, I'm sure you can get through that dinner without feeling awkward. And now, instead of you still feeling confused about what to do. You better hurry tidy up your desk and catch up with him, before he who in the end can get angry because you're late and make him wait too long and waste his time with useless. Because something like that is one thing that is not liked by him, Irina.”

"Like that? All right then. I must hurry as soon as possible.”

Seeing Irina who looked quite in such a rush made Savannah unconsciously already smiled a little. Somewhat sad smile why did that woman publish, just to know the new employee as already approached by the boss. Indeed Savannah didn't want to think about such things either. It is just, the big change that occurred in Duke's attitude towards her was made Savannah felt that all the things that had happened between her being with that man really meant nothing. Don't want being disloyal, it's just that Savannah didn't expect it everything would change that fast. But the woman continued told herself that she didn't need to think about that thing contact with Duke outside of a professional nature, because she was already having Dylan in his heart and life.
