Chapter 4

Dana had joined the company the year it was founded, and only recently transferred to this particular branch office because it was closer to her child’s school.

“Thanks, I’ve already eaten, Camila smiled as she returned to her desk and booted up her computer to start her day-

As the workday began, her colleagues gradually arrived.

“Camila, could you come to my office?” Mr. Cash called out as he possed by her desk

“Sure.” Camila picked up her notebook and followed Mr. Cash into the General Manager’s office

Mr. Cash sat down and gestured for her to do the same. “Sil.”

After Camila sat down, she opened her notebook and prepared to take notes. Mr. Cash leaned back in his chair, his expression serious “Camila, how long have you been with us?”

Camila’s heart tightened Mr. Cash’s demeanor made her nervous. She maintained her composure, smiling slightly. “One year and a month”

“Over a year, huh?” Mr. Cash nodded.

MI

He then slowly continued, “As my assistant, you’ve performed exceedingly well over this past year

He looked up at Camila. “There’s an opportunity at headquarters. There’s a vacancy in the CEO’s office that needs filling!”

The previous night, Mr. Cash had received a call from Alan, who mentioned that his assistant Camila was quite capable and requested her transfer to headquarters to serve as the CEO’s personal secretary

“Headquarters? Which position?” Camila was puzzled. Both the branch office and headquarters were in the same city. The branch office handled sales channels and had no overlapping positions with the headquarters..

“You’ll be the CEO’s personal secretary, Mr. Cash clarified.

“The CEO’s personal secretary?”

Camila’s eyebrows slightly furrowed. As far as she knew, this position had been newly created at headquarters three months ago and had already seen over ten replacements. Wasn’t this just like setting her up to be fired?

Mr. Cash continued, The salary for the CEO’s personal secretary is double what you’re currently eaming, with a raise after the probation period, plus monthly bonuses, quarterly bonuses, and annual bonuses. The benefits are better than the ones at this branch office.”

Camila pursed her lips. She was well aware that the headquarters paid more, but one had to not be fired to receive it. She frowned slightly, her red lips parting slightly. “Can I refuse?”

Mr. Cash waved his hand. “I understand your concerns, don’t worry. Your position as my assistant is reserved for you. If it doesn’t work out, you can come back”

“Understood, thank you, Mr. Cash.” Camila nodded.

“Pack up for the day. You’re off work now. Report directly to headquarters tomorrow, Mr. Cash instructed

Camila adjusted her chair and nodded, “Okay”

Back at her desk, she let out a deep breath.

“You look a bit off…” Dana stopped by her desk.

“Dana, do you know Mr. Connor?” Camila looked up, her expression blank. With over a year of experience at the company, Camila only knew the big boss’ name, Connor, and had no clue whether he was tall or short. He never showed his face on the company website.or in financial magazine interviews.

“Our big boss, Mr. Connor?” Dana’s face was a picture, her grin barely contained.

Camila nodded.

Dana pulled up a chair next to her, leaning in to whisper, “Why the sudden interest in him?”

Camila sighed, “I’ve been transferred to be his personal secretary”

“Really?” Dana’s mouth fell open in surprise, her face alight with excitement. She remembered to lower her voice. “Let me tell you, Mr. Connor is super hot!”

Camila was speechless and gave a perfunctory smile. She couldn’t care less about how hat her boss was.
