Minerva had just returned from delivering the documents when she saw Linda standing at the entrance of the secretary's office. She did not look too good.
"Linda?"
Linda looked at her with disappointment in her eyes.
"I thought you were a serious person."
Her words caused Minerva's heart to skip a beat. Her lips parted weakly before she asked, "Linda, what happened?"
"When I asked you to clean Mr. Sebastian's office this morning, what did I tell you?"
Minerva thought about it for a moment, then read it out according to what she recalled, "You said that he loved cleanliness and couldn't stand dust."
Linda asked, "Then did you do it?"
Minerva nodded and said, "Of course. How can I not do it?"
She had been doing her best for this profession.
"Are you sure you did it?" Linda squinted her eyes and looked at her up and down. Her eyes were clear and pure, without any impurities. It didn't look like she was lying. Was she really not lazy? But if she had cleaned it up, why would Mr. Sebastian get angry?
After thinking for a while, she could only say, "Come with me."
Minerva could only keep up with her pace. The two of them went to the president's office together. Along the way, she felt uneasy. Could it be that she would be fired on the second day?
Then all her previous efforts would be in vain, wouldn't they?
No, she could not let herself be fired, she had to think of a way to deal with it.
Minerva came up with many ways to deal with the situation. She didn't know if it was because she was too anxious, but her mind went blank and she couldn't think of anything.
When they reached the door of the office, her heart beat faster and faster.
The door of the office was open, but still, Linda politely knocked on the door and asked, "Mr. Sebastian?"
The low voice of a man came from inside without any warmth. "Come in."
The whole office was filled with a chill.
Linda closed her eyes. Evidently, she didn't want to get involved in this matter. She took in a deep breath and turned around to look at Minerva with a smile on her face. "Mr. Sebastian asked you to go in."
Minerva was speechless.
Although Linda was smiling, her smile was strange. What was going on?
"Linda, that..."
Linda didn't give her a chance to speak. She took her arm, pushed her in, and whispered, "Good luck. You can do it."
Minerva didn't have the time to ask the question she wanted to ask. Before she could do so, Linda disappeared, leaving her alone in the same spot.
"Why are you standing there?" A cold male voice appeared and a chill went up Minerva's back. When she turned around, she saw Maddox's inky eyes. She was shocked and heard him say, "Why aren't you coming over here to see what you have done?"
Her?
She didn't know what kind of things she had done, but listening to his tone, it was definitely not a good thing. Thus, she slowly walked towards him.
"Mr... Mr. Sebastian."
When Minerva called Maddox that, she was still very awkward, but there was no other way. After all, he had a new name.
She walked to a spot not far away from him and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
As soon as she approached, the fragrance of her body lingered around him again, and all he could smell was her scent. Maddox had smelled women before, but why didn't he hate the scent of this strange woman?
He glanced at her and found that she was looking at him with clear eyes. She looked innocent and didn't seem to come to admit her mistake at all.
He pointed at the windowsill.
She quickly walked over and took a closer look. When she found nothing wrong, she said, "It's very clean here. There's no dust on it."
