I stood outside Wilson enterprises, my heart racing with excitement and nerves. I took a deep breath, smoothing my dress. As I entered the sleek lobby, a friendly receptionist greeted me. Welcome, Isabella. You are expected. Please take the elevator to the 20th floor.
The elevator doors opened, revealing a bustling office. My eyes widened as I spotted the CEO name on the door: Ethan Wilson. My mind flashed back to our passionate night but I pushed the memory aside, focusing on my new role.
Hi I am Emily, HR manger, a warm voice said, extending a hand. Welcome to Wilson enterprises. I followed Emily to her workstation, exchanging pleasantries.
As Emily explained the company vision and policies, my mind drifted to the CEO office.
Lets meet with mister Wilson, Emily said, knocking on his door. My heart skipped a beat. His voice called out, enter. Emily pushed on the door, revealing Ethan imposing figure behind his desk.
Our eyes met, and I felt the air thicken. Isabella, welcome to Wilson enterprises, he said, his tone professional. Thank you mister Wilson I replied matching his tone.
His gaze lingered, and I sensed a flicker of recognition. Emily, brief me on Isabella role, he requested. As Emily outlined my responsibilities, he listened intently. I tried to compose myself, but my mind whirled with questions.
Mister Wilson, I will let you discuss details with Isabella, Emily said and exited, leaving us alone. The tension between us was palpable.
His eyes held mine, the air thick with unspoken tension. He leaned back in his chair watching me intently.
Isabella, I trust Emily has briefed you on your role as my new secretary. Yes sir, I replied my voice steady. His gaze lingered, and for a moment I thought he was going to mention or encounter, but instead he said: you will handle my schedule, correspondence, and other tasks.
His tone implied more, but I didn't press. I understand, sir. He nodded. Good, Emily will show you to your desk. Okay sir I said feeling a flutter I my chest. As I left his office, Emily smiled and said: You are now the gatekeeper to the CEO liar. My mind whirled. Working with Ethan would test my resolve.
Emily led me to a sleek desk outside Ethan office. This is your place, get settled, I will bring the paperwork. As Emily walked away, my gaze drifted to Ethan door. I felt his presence, even with his door closed. A buzz broke the silence. Ethan voice came through the intercom. Isabella, please come in.
