Poorly Forgotten Secretary

Poorly Forgotten Secretary
A Million Dollar Smile


The elevator that brought Ambrosia and Alex clanking signified that they had reached the floor they were on.


There are only two ways to reach the room of the President Director of Levine Enterprises, the first through a special lift—the only elevator in the building that only has two floors of destination; from the basement parking floor directly to the 41st floor where the President Director's room is located, or vice versa.


While the second way is to pass through the main lobby, using a public elevator to the secretarial floor which is on the 40th floor first, after that, just climb the manual stairs to one floor above it again, namely the Director's room floor.


Exiting the elevator, Ambrosia again led the way down the corridor. On her way, Ambrosia looked up at the secretary's desk in front of her and looked around for the other secretary who should be behind the empty desk.


Where are Elsa and Belle? Ambrosia asked in her heart. Because at least one of them should stay to maintain the secretary's desk for the efficiency of the secretarial work of the President Director.


That is why Roxanne Levine hired two other secretaries to help Ambrosia, so that the office of the President Director secretary is not empty like this as busy as the main secretary's duties.


Though Ambrosia believes he has divided the task today as carefully as possible so that there is no buildup of agenda that causes the empty table. Except. There are guests who come without an appointment first, so that either Belle or Elsa is busy in the Director's room while the others complete the task today.


Reluctant to be haunted by curiosity, Ambrosia finally accidentally stopped right in front of the desk of the secretaries to find out what really happened. While Alex who continues to follow the steps of Ambrosia inevitably also stopped not far behind the woman.


"Excuse me, Mr. Levine, if you don't mind I have to call the Director's office first to see if he's ready to accept you in his office" asked Ambrosia politely but stiffly.


It was Alex's turn who just nodded in response to the secretary's question. Ambrosia immediately darted behind the secretary's desk and pulled the phone, but she had not had time to press a special button that directly connected to the Director's room, a giggling sound came from the direction of the pantry door.


Ambrosia and Alex turned to the source of the sound and both saw Belle and Elsa coming out of the room at the end of the corridor.


"Oh, my goodness..." Belle shrieked softly as she covered her mouth with her palm as her eyes caught the handsome figure standing in front of the secretary's desk.


"Hi, Ana, are you back?" greet Elsa as she steps closer. Despite talking to his senior, it was clear which way Elsa's eyes were directed, which was not at all in the direction of Ambrosia.


Belle follows Elsa as she approaches the secretary's desk, though with her eyes locked on the most handsome man she has ever met.


"I guess where you go to leave our desks empty, if there's an important phone or what emergency?" ambrosia protested in a stern tone while returning the phone handle to its original place.


"Sorry, sorry, it should be Belle's turn to guard but suddenly her stomach hurt so she rushed to the toilet," Elsa said regardless of Belle's reaction which was immediately flushed red after feeling her disgrace exposed.


"Hey, Elsa. You better shut up" whispered Belle, who immediately nudged her co-worker's waist in shame.


"By the way, if you're back from picking up the crown prince, this man is.."


Belle had not yet finished her sentence, Ambrosia immediately cut off her colleague's words so as not to waste their work time, "At this time her status is still a guest, so be professional as usual. Now, get back to work," Ambrosia orders decisively.


They call me crown prince? It's sweet, Alex thought happy. After witnessing how the other two secretaries reacted when they saw him, Alex recalled how Ambrosia had reacted when they first met at the airport.


It turns out that it is not normal here only the Secretary Ketus, in fact two colleagues showed the same reaction as the other women when looking at me, thought Alex proud and astonished.


Indeed, such eye gazes should be seen from them, not the eyes full of vengeance as shown by the creature that one. Alex is furious himself.


"Please follow me, Mr. Levine, Mrs Roxanne is waiting for you" said Ambrosia who, without Alex knowing, was suddenly under the stairs to the Director's floor.


It turns out that while Alex was busy criticizing the attitude of his mother's secretary in his own mind, Ambrosia was quick to call Roxanne through the company's internal channels to announce Alex's presence.


"Ba, alright," replied Alex again stuttered from drowning in his own daydream. The man hurriedly chased after Ambrosia who went up the stairs first without waiting for him. Although rushed, but Alex still had time to give a smile a million dollars when passing Belle and Elsa that he passed.


"Oh my God, did I just have a dream" exclaimed Belle who did not believe in her own eyesight after witnessing the ultimate smile of an Alex Levine.


"If this is indeed a dream means we are in the same dream, Belle," said Elsa who was no less fascinated.


The two secretaries then screamed in excitement to cause a small commotion in the secretary room. The excitement produced by two new admirers Alex was suddenly made the owner smile that deliberately spread the charm more attractive when climbing the stairs to his mother's office.


"Aleexx, my son," Roxy approached Alex with a big smile at the sight of her beloved son in her study. "How are you doing, son?" roxy asked while giving a tight hug and kiss on Alex's forehead.


Roxanne Levine is a petite woman. Slim, but tiny. If juxtaposed with Ambrosia the middle-aged woman's crown only reached the shoulders of her secretary, another case when Roxanne faced the son. The woman's body seemed to sink directly into the earth because only half of Alex Levine's height was so towering.


"I'll get you some tea and a snack" said Ambrosia after seeing the hue of joy on his Director's face.


"Thank you, Ana, you're so kind" Roxy replied as she turned to Ambrosia standing up.


Beyond Alex's expectations, he sees clearly that Ambrosia smiles first before returning a compliment from her mother.


"It's my job, Roxy," replied Ambrosia still with a smile.


But the smile disappeared when Ambrosia's eyeball, behind her thick glasses, accidentally met Alex's eye. The girl's gaze suddenly returned sharply before she finally turned to leave the room.


Alex was immediately surprised to see it. How come? scream inner Alex. How could his attitude be so different when he was talking to his mother and when he saw me? Ahhh, that woman is really two-faced. Alex grumbled in his heart.
