Chapter 47: Set Off

Rise really thought it was not a bad idea at all. And so he bravely repeated it. For consideration, he just whispered it enough for Kamille not to hear and not to be eavesdropped by the staff on the phone. 

"I can be your secretary." 

For some reason, it came off as a statement rather than an offer or a request.

His behavior sounded absurd from a normal perspective, but for some reason, as it was Rise saying it, his words always seemed to match him. Kamille thought the same. 

He stared at Rise without answering as the staff on the other end of the line continued waiting. Not averting his gaze, he spoke, "That's all. Get it ready in two days." 

Kamille then finally ended the call. His deep, intimidating gaze stared at Rise, as though curious about what was inside his brain, tempted to tear it open. 

"You want to be my secretary?" Kamille's lips twitched slightly, it sounded more ridiculous to him when he said it out loud.
