With this, Midori was tasked to still act as the company CEO while reporting back to her brother when she gets home, meaning that she had not come to Dan's place for a few weeks.
.
Riley had a tinge of panic in his eyes as he saw CEO Zhou step out of the elevator and came striding towards CEO Xiu's office.
When Dan came to his desk, he asked, "Busy?"
Riley knew that the question was not about him. It was asking if his boss is busy in her office.
"Uhm...CEO Zhou, the meeting with the investors had been delayed so it is ongoing. Would you like to wait for CEO Xiu in her office?" Riley was eying people around him. All of them was skeptical about the executive who seemed to be important.
Though attractive, Dan has kept a low profile to the limelights. Also, because he does not appear much on the news and in social gatherings, few people from the lower economic cla.s.s can recognize his face. However, to company executives and their a.s.sistants, his face is a must-know as he is rich enough to have some business with, and powerful enough for one not to offend.
Female employees exchanged looks and murmured really softly, that the words were hard to tell.
Then, a male employee seemed to recognize him.
"I think...that's Verdan Zhou, the CEO of ZFC..." he muttered.
"What?!" A female employee in a micromini skirt rose from her seat.
Good thing that the man in question and their CEO's a.s.sistant were already in the office, far from noticing their antics.
"Yeah. My wife works at their yoghurt factory. One time, he visited the site and one of the managers took the chance to ask for a photo. He took one with them and all employees saved it on their phones."
"Do we have a new project with ZFC?"
"Who knows...maybe he is good friends with CEO Xiu?"
"But during the last collaboration with them, the CEO was different."
"That was their deputy CEO. I heard that they had a new CEO. I never expected him to be so hot!"
"Hey, don't you have a crush on a.s.sistant Adams?"
"Tsk. Forget about our CEO's boytoy. CEO Zhou is so dreamy. I wonder if he needs an a.s.sistant."
The murmurs turned to complete silence as CEO Xiu emerged from the meeting room. At the same time, Riley had returned to his desk after bringing coffee to CEO Zhou.
As Midori bid farewell to the investors at the elevators, she noticed the odd expressions her employees were giving her.
They were actually looking at her. Indeed, it was odd. For an aloof CEO, the usual behavior of her employees were greeting her politely then going back to their work. No one dared too look at her that long and this time, they were all doing it. Something is not right.
She shot them stern glances as she made her way to her office.
As she pa.s.sed by Riley's desk, he stood up abruptly, dropping some pens on the floor.
"CEO, the CEO of ZFC has been waiting for you."
This sentence made Midori's poker face change into a shocked expression. She looked back on Secretary Ta, who was following her around. "You can have a break."
Secretary Ta was surprised. This was a first! Before the CEO could take back her words, she thanked her and immediately left.
Midori shot Riley a look. "How long?"
"Twenty-five minutes." Riley answered without hesitation. He knew she was asking how long has CEO Zhou been waiting in the office.
Midori entered the office and shut the door without saying anything else.
Riley slumped down on her seat sighing. Why does this husband and wife tandem make things hard for him? He can keep up now, but do they expect that he can always be this good in reading them?
Suddenly, his phone beeped. A message was received.
"My boss is with your boss. I got the rest of the day off. What time will you be free?"
As he read and replied to the message, the exhausted expression on his face turned into a bright smile.
.
Meanwhile, inside the office, Midori saw her husband nonchalantly sitting on the sofa reading newspapers while sipping coffee. His long legs were crossed elegantly and his suit jacket was laid neatly on the backrest of the sofa.
Seeing that he had no reaction since her entrance, she cleared her throat. "Why are you here?"
He folded the newspaper back and tossed in on the coffee table. "It's to see my wife." He had a gentle smile.
"It's too early." Midori checked her watch.
"You are free for the rest of the day though." He finished his cup of coffee.
"How did you..." Before Midori finished stating her question, he stood up, walked towards her, took her in his arms and gave her a kiss.
Midori pushed him back. "What are you doing?" She was irritated by the sudden gesture. "We're in my office."
"But I miss my wife." He pouted like a spoiled boy.
"This is my office!" She glared at him.
"So lock the door." He smiled proudly as if it was the most ingenious idea in the world.
