48 Sneaky Edward (1/2)
NYELLE's POV
Did she just actually say, I am cute?! Is Sir Edward serious? But now everything seems a little awkward. But later on, he acted serious which hinted that he wants to know my answer. Of course, I would love to help Yve but am I up for the task? WHATEVER!!!
”Sir Edward, you know how much I wanted to help Yve. But I don't know if I can do the job right. The difference between the two jobs are very big.”
”I know but are you willing to be trained for the position?”
I was shocked with his offer so I wasn't able to answer him.
”The most important thing for an executive assistant is not the skills but loyalty and trustworthy. Yve is comfortable with you and badly wants you for the position.”
I totally know how Yve thinks. I trust Sir Edward on that note. If they are willing to train me before I enter the battlefield, then I'll be more than happy to be of service.
”Okay, Sir Edward.”
Then I stood up and bowed, ”I'll be in your care then.”
”No need to bow but of course, I'll make sure you're ready.”
”If you're ready, let's start now?” Edward said.
I was shocked so I looked at him with a confused look and asked, ”How?”
”I will train you starting today. As an OJT, every morning, you will be Mr. Gray's secretary.”
”What? The CEO of the Gray Group?!” I exclaimed.
”Yes.” Then just on cue, his phone rang and so he excused himself and answered the phone.
”Yes, Ms. Yvory?” I heard him say.
Yvory? Does he mean Yve? Why would Mr. Gray and Sir Edward help Yve. What is their relationship? Tsk2x… This girl has been hiding so many things from me now. I will really make sure to make her spill the beans somehow.
Then the phone call ended.
”Nyelle, let's postpone today's training. Ms. Yvory wants to meet you at home and so she wants to bring some of her special ingredients? I tried to ask her but she said, you know what to bring?” Sir Edward asked with a confused look on her face.
”Yes, I know. But I don't know whereis she living now. She's not staying in her apartment.”
”I'll take you there.” He said.
”No, it's fine. Once you tell me the place, I can go there by myself.”
”But I don't think you can get in. Plus she instructed me to help you.” Sir Edward said.
”How about your work with Mr. Gray. I might be an inconvenience.”
”Well, he instructed me that training you is my top priority. So no worries. So let's head out?”
I guess that means I will spend my afternoon with him.
”Okay, then let's go…”
He guided me on the way out. As we exited the elevator doors and walked in the hallways of the resort, many employees began to look at us. This will cause a controversy, I bet. But why wouldn't it?
I have to admit, Sir Edward is handsome in his own way. Plus it seems like Yve trusts him a lot. Not to forget his excellent work as a secretary. Although in looks, he is a little behind compared to Mr. Gray. But he's fine the way he is.
