"Why is Melisa fired and why is Grace in my office." Oscar came to his father's office, Jimmy Lawrence. Behind him was Grace.
Jimmy, who turns out to be holding a meeting with his business partner, turns his gaze to his only son.
"We'll talk about it later, I'm in a meeting."
Oscar flinching, he could also see that his father was holding a meeting. He didn't care about it, he wanted an explanation now!
"I said I was in a meeting" Jimmy said as calmly as he could.
"You can wait but not with me. I need an explanation, "typical stubborn man. It was common knowledge that his relationship with his father was not good.
Jimmy breathed heavily. His son was always against whatever he said.
"There are ten pairs of eyes here. You really want to talk about it here?"
"I said that I couldn't wait" repeated Oscar sternly as if to challenge his father.
"Your secretary is not doing her job. Your schedule's a mess just because you asked your secretary to do something that wasn't her job." Jimmy must refrain from saying that Melisa does not look like a secretary but like a cheap woman who always wears clothes lacking materials.
"I can do all my work well!"
"Maybe according to your version."
"Of course according to my version. He works for me."
"And you work for the company. I'm not gonna let you or anybody do anything that could hurt the company. You've got the answers and I've also provided you with a new secretary." Jimmy turned to Grace who could only watch the debate between the boy and the father.
"Why should Grace?"
"Oh, you know your new secretary apparently." Jimmy nosedived his eyebrows. The man will not be surprised if Grace is a sexy woman who has a high height.
"Women seem to be the best fit to work for you. No menor, no indulgence, you won't be aroused so your work is safe."
Grace immediately coughed. So Oscar's dad accepted it and for reasons he's less attractive, huh?
Jimmy already said what Oscar wanted to hear. He looked back at his partner and continued the conversation.

"I'll resign if you don't like me here" Grace said despite her heavy heart. Come on, the main purpose of working here is to attract Oscar's attention. Unfortunately, before he acted Oscar had already shown blatantly that the man did not like his presence.
"You're welcome here. Just do your job."
"What about Melissa?"
"Leave it. I don't know why you can work here. Being my secretary is not an easy job. You have to take care of everything properly and properly. If there's a meeting I can't attend, you have to be able to handle it. Your working hours are erratic, I can call you at any time to address my problems outside of work hours. You know that I have a lot of women, be it businessmen, artists, models and so on. Everyone has a meeting schedule. I don't like the media even though I'm often highlighted for my ludicrous scandal. Make sure you can handle everything, including the media. At nine in the morning, my coffee should be placed on the table. For lunch, it's 12:15. I don't like greasy and sticky food. You have to remember this."
Grace recorded everything in the little book that the Oscars gave her.
"Did your previous secretary, I mean Melisa also do something like this?" suddenly he felt dizzy. During this time he never did any work for others, sometimes people did it for him. Like the clothes he was wearing right now, it was Helli who prepared it.
Oscar nodded, "Yes. Melissa did it all. You have less work than him. As you can see, Melisa's providing immune-boosting services."
Immune enhancement services? Oh my God, it turns out that his brother's keplayboy is nothing compared to Oscar. Oscar and Melisa almost had sex on the table and Oscar called it an immune-boosting service. Yes, it sounds more moral than the term morning sexx.
"Is there anything less clear?" Oscar glanced at the expensive watch that coiled in his hand.
All of them! I don't understand all the tasks you're putting on me!
I wanted Grace to answer him like that, but she shook her head. He did not want to look stupid in front of the man he was looking for.
"good. To see if you really understand what I'm saying, try to explain what your job was like as my secretary?"
Grace looked at the note, "My job isn't just about work in the office. But also outside the office, including addressing your personal problems."
Oscar nodded his head, "Good, you really understand. So, as your first assignment is to pick up my niece."
"Huh?"
"Your job today, just pick up Dulce at school. Accompany him to lunch. After that you just wait for me to call what your next job is."
"If I accompany your niece to lunch. Then what about your lunch?"
"Sierra today is coming, I'll have lunch with her."
Grace fell silent. He knows who Sierra is. The woman Oscar loved long ago. Sierra is the woman who won Oscar's attention. Sierra managed to make the man insaf. When he was with Sierra, Oscar didn't play around with women. Sierra is the only one. The two were in a relationship for a long time. And Grace grieves as the two pledge their relationship publicly.
One year ago, Grace accidentally heard that the two had broken up. Since then, Oscar has been playing with women.
Grace can be casual with the women Oscar is dating, but she can't hide her jealousy when it comes to Sierra.
"Sierra?"
"Hmm, do you still remember that?"
"Yes. I remember it."
"Leave your mobile number. Dulce doesn't like to wait long."
"Isn't it still early. I don't think it's time for school kids to come home yet."
"Dulce had a stomachache. Can you drive?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Yes, already. Go."
Inevitably Grace had to move on to do her first task. It's not like a meeting that's in his shadow. He did not greet Oscar and the man did not greet him either. He was instead presented with a heated scene between Oscar and his secretary and a heated debate between the man and his father. He must also contain his jealousy when Oscar mentions Siera's name and now he has to pick up the man's call. Since when did Oscar have a nephew?

Grace parked the car in a special parking lot provided by the school. In the past, he and Gavin also attended school here. One of the best schools in London.
"Euuy, disgusting!! Your dress is horrible. You're the weirdest girl in this school. Nobody's gonna want to be friends with you, you chicken!"
Grace stopped her steps as soon as she heard the voices of several children. Not far from where he stood was a group of children. Four people laughed at a girl who was indeed a little unique. The performance reminded Grace of someone. Hairy bando and colorful clothes that look like chicken feathers.
The girl tried to leave but the other four girls did not give way.
"Let me through!"'
Ah, her voice sounds similar too. Could it be the same person? Grace muttered in heart. He came closer to see the girl's face.
"What would you do if we didn't give way, liar. You crybaby! Deliberately lying so as not to follow the lesson."
"I'm not a liar!"
"Of course you're a liar. Your stomach doesn't hurt. You just don't want to go to school."
"This school is disgusting because it's you and your friends" said the girl, straddling her.
"You're the disgusting one, stupid girl!"
"I'm not a stupid girl!"
"You're a pathetic stupid girl who doesn't have a mother."
"I have a mother. You're the stupid one!"
"Where's your mother? A liar!"
"Hey, he's not a liar. If she doesn't have a mother, where do you think she was born?" Grace mediates the quarrel and it turns out that she did not misunderstand. The little girl who got an attack from her friends turned out to be the same girl who came to her cricket match a few months ago.
"He couldn't have erupted just like that from bamboo. You're the stupid one!"
"Who are you?" ask one of the children with a probing expression. Jeez, the children of zamam are now minimal morals and adab. How could the little girls stare directly into his eyes without feeling awkward.
"Adults won't say a child is a fool."
"An 11-year-old can't be said to be a child. You and your friends shouldn't attack your other friends either."
"He's not our friend. She doesn't have a mother."
"I have a mother!"
"Where is your mother, liar?! Your mother must have run away because she has a weird daughter like you."
"My mom is not like that!"
"Of course your mother is like that. The proof is your mother never came here to attend any event."
"If you're curious, her mother is right here, right in front of you." Grace was dizzy listening to the debate of the leaks. He also can not be hard, it could be the leaks were crying and complaining.
"You're his mother?"
"Yes, I'm his mother. Go awayl. Away from him. If I see you bothering my daughter again, I'll rip out your ears!"
"You must be a liar."
"Why should I lie. You asked where her mother was, I was her mother. Then what's your problem, little girl."
"She's really your mother?" the girl who seemed to be the chieftain in the group asked the unique girl.
"He said that. Of course she's my mom. He came to pick me up. Let us pass by, "the unique girl drew Grace's hand away from her friends.
"What are you doing here?"
"You remember me?"
"of course. You knocked my dad unconscious. Since then I have admired. You're the first person to make my father helpless."
"That's not a compliment."
"A good throw. I used to have no goals. Now I want to be a cricketer like you."
Grace's face blushed in embarrassment. All this time, he considered himself useless unemployed. Who would have thought that in the eyes of a little girl, she was a role model. Is that what it feels like to be worshipped?
"Thanks to your throw, my father stayed home for two days. Very rare thing."
"Oh, huh? I'm sorry to hear that. He must have suffered so much."
"Hmm, my father is not a person who can be silent. Thanks for your help."
"Your friends are terrible."
"Yes, I don't like school here. What are you doing here?"
"Oh," Grace patted her eel. He forgot his duty. "I picked someone up. By the way where's the health room?"
"What are you going to do there?"
"Pick someone up. Maybe you know him. Dulce Lawrence's."
"Dulce Lawrence's? You just met the guy."
"Where?"
"Before you. I'm Dulce Lawrence."
"Ooh..." Grace squealing. Then the two laughed while jumping around a little. "You lied about your stomach hurting?"
Dulce nodded, "You saw my friends earlier. Very irritating."
"You're right too. But lying is not allowed, sweet girl. Don't do it again and let's have fun!"
