章 50: Bring it here to meet its father.
"Good morning Polly, sorry to ask but where is my station again?"
It was the official first operating day of Asian-Sealed Corporation. Employees arrived early to set their stations and arrange their files. Zoey, on the other hand, is asking the receptionist to where is her station be.
After the Dinner Party, employees had a brief meeting to set everyone's location. HR Department asks for their opinion to where they want to be located or assigned.
The main office is located on the second floor, while the ground is for the manufacturing of the hard drives, their main product.
There are different departments in ASC: Accounting leads be Zoey, HR by Officer Liao, Engineering, IT, and Administration under the supervision of COO Fuentes.
Each department had its own station and accounting and administration was placed together.
To be fair, Officers from each department were asked where they want their division will be, but because all of them were terrified to be in the same station with the COO, each of them selected the three separate stations available on the said floor.
Accounting staffs were unfortunate because their officer already went home and didn't have the chance to fight for their rights to pick a nicer station for them.
"Miss Zoey, the accounting department is in Station A."
So far, Zoey has been familiar to the stations on the second floor, however, she hasn't heard about the news that they will be sharing the same station with the administration department.
At Station A.
The big room was separated with a center aisle; the left side is for the administration and right is the accounting. When Zoey opening the glass door, all of her staffs stand up and greets her merrily.
"Good morning Officer Zoey."
Zoey is wearing a black Mindy skirt with a white top. Her hair was kept in a messy bun with two hair clips to tuck her bangs on the side. With her stiletto, she looks like an alluring office lady.
It is her staffs first time to see her. During their interviews, only the people from HR Department interviewed them. They just informed them that their officer is a very charming lady. Too bad they don't have any photo of anyone to show who are the people they need to respect and follow.
Some of them befriend the receptionist to ask for her help to inform them if their Officer has arrived. When the receptionist saw Zoey entered the building, she paged one of the staff in the Accounting Department and told her that their officer now arrived.
Startled by the sudden greeting, Zoey thank them with a bright big smile. Male employees instantly fell from her kind charm and thought that they are lucky to be supervised by a lovely lady. One of the male employees helps her to carry her box she is holding.
Zoey thanks him for his kind gesture. Actually, the box is slightly heavy, and she was shy to ask for anyone's help. Good thing this employee took the initiative to extend a hand for her.
"Where is my station again?"
"Inside the manager's room Miss Zoey."
The two of them walk straight to the manager's room. Zoey put her bag on the chair while the staff places Zoey's belongings over the table.
"Oh! I'm sharing the room. That is great!" The male employee looked at her, wondering how she had that kind of reaction perhaps she knows absolutely nothing to whom she will share the room. The staff didn't say a word and excuse himself after helping her.
Zoey started arranging her things and settling some reports on her table when the door opened. A man in white long sleeves shirt entered the room. Zoey at that time was very busy organizing her things and didn't notice anyone entering the room.
When she lifts her head, the man was already sitting on her desk.
"You're an early baby. Look we are sharing the same room. Is in it destiny helping us to be together?" Speaking of being shameless among all the shameless, Nickel called her his baby even inside the office.
A shock from his endearment, her eyes widened afraid that someone will hear them.
"Good morning Director Fuentes, my name is Zoey, not a baby."
Zoey wanted to be professional in front of him, so she just corrected him from calling her baby in the near future. Let us say that it is acceptable for him to call her baby or babe in front of Michael but inside the office and working hours, she should draw a line and let them work professionally.
"Yes, I know. But you said it before that I'm your boyfriend right? Why can't I call my girl as baby or babe?" He smiled at her teasingly, a smile that other girls are dying to see.
"We both know that it is all an act. You help me and I thank you but now that we are working, I guess we should work professionally. Being my boss, you should act accordingly to your position Director Fuentes." Zoey stressed out the words Director Fuentes to keep Nickel behind the line.
A while ago she was happy to see that she will be sharing the room, but knowing to whom she is sharing it reciprocates her initial feelings.
Her jolly face turned into a dispirited one. She somehow wants to go to work at home.
Nickel's assistant entered the room and arranged his table, leaving him sitting on her desk. Nickel, on the other hand, was observing Zoey wallpaper on her laptop. Although the company provided everyone a computer set, Zoey is still comfortable working on her laptop.
"Who is that?" He asked her.
Zoey frowned at him, "My dog. Why?"
"Is it your baby?" Nickel noticed on social media that girls usually treat their pets as their kid. For example his niece, his niece is calling her pet rabbit as a baby, wherein she is the mother and her parents are the rabbits' grandparents.
Zoey nodded at him while checking her email through the desktop.
Nickel leans to her and whispered, "I didn't know that we had a baby then. Maybe you should bring it here to meet its father.
From frowning to glaring. Zoey looked at him from eye to eye and patiently holding her anger while saying. "She is mine alone."
Pleased by her reaction, Nickel once again whispered to her, with proximity that Zoey can sense her hot breaths on her ear. "Perhaps I need to give you a new dog for us to have a child then."
You shameless man.
Zoey lost her composure; she stood up and went to the comfort room to ease her anger.
The assistant who was surprised to Zoey's sudden standing was unaware of the topic the two were conversing.
