Sylvie was stunned for a while. After a while, she heard someone muttering. Then two figures came into the door of the president’s office.
Marley’s face was devoid of any emotion, but Tyler’s face sank. When he saw Sylvie with a rag, Tyler smiled and recovered his composure. Looking around, he found that the whole office was spotless. For a moment, Tyler was a bit stunned.
When Marley came in again, he noticed the changes in his office. The desks and chairs had been wiped, clean and neat. There was a slight surprise in his eyes. His eyes inadvertently swept Sylvie’s face, emotionless.
“Finished cleaning?” Marley asked Sylvie indifferently.
“Well!” Sylvie nodded and said, “You can check it!”
If Marley was picky, she could clean it again. Unexpectedly, he just nodded and said nothing more.
“Miss Sylvie, have you eaten yet?” Tyler asked, with a trace of admiration. He didn’t expect that this girl did as Marley told her without resisting his almost cruel harsh requirements.
Only then did Sylvie found that it was already one o’clock. It turned out that their meeting lasted three hours. And it took her all the morning to clean the office spotlessly. She also had a sense of accomplishment when she looked at the fruits of her labor.
“Not yet?”
“No!” Sylvie shook her head and said, “I’m not hungry!”
“We didn’t eat either. Why don’t we go down to the restaurant to eat together?” Seeing Marley frowning, Tyler immediately closed his mouth before he finished.
Sylvie also found his displeasure, and Marley said, “Get a carry-out. No time!”
“Well! That’s fine!” Tyler agreed happily. “I’ll call right away! Marley, what do you want?”
“Make it simple!”
“Is box lunch OK?”
“Alright!” Marley replied.
Sylvie thought he would be more picky about food as a young master of a rich family. Unexpectedly, he even said that he would eat boxed lunch, which made her more impressed with him.
Marley went to the chair, sat down, turned on the computer, entered the password and began to work.
Tyler called to order food. Sylvie didn’t ask more, not knowing if they would order one for her. She took a rag to dry.
Tyler finished the call, pulled the chair and sat opposite at Marley’s desk. “She didn’t make trouble, on the contrary, she did a good job!” he said.
Marley didn’t say much. He typed calmly and sorted out the data.
When the takeouts came, Sylvie didn’t move after seeing that it was for three people as Marley didn’t invite her.
The two of them sat on the sofa to eat, and no one asked her. She was a little embarrassed.
Tyler took a look at her, and then at Marley, who seemed not to see her.
Tyler ignored Marley and handed her the lunch box. “Miss Sylvie, take it.”
Sylvie didn’t take it after taking a look at Marley.
“Why are you looking at me? Are you not hungry?” Marley stared at her angrily, and Sylvie was so scared that she took it and rushed to the sofa in the corner to finish her food.
Thus a president, a special assistant and she, the three of them were eating lunch in the president’s office. Sylvie thought that Marley must have no shortcomings of those young men.
She had a small appetite and was full after a few mouthfuls, while both of them ate very fast and seemed very busy.
Sylvie put down the lunch box, in which there was still half of the rice left. She didn’t eat much meat except for two ribs.
Marley turned to look at her. “Well? Not to your taste?”
His tone was ironic. Sylvie was stunned for a while and said, shaking her head, “I’m full.”
“Full?” Marley sneered, “Sylvie Mccarthy, if you want to have a good meal, no one will stop you. You can go back to the Mccarthy to have a big feast. There’s no need to suffer here!”
“I’m really full!” Sylvie didn’t understand how he suddenly got angry with her.
Marley put the lunch box on the tea table. There were no rice grains in it. He finished it all, so did Tyler.
“It’s shameful to waste grain!” Marley suddenly stood up.
“Sorry, I really can’t eat that much!” Sylvie immediately apologized.
Marley snorted, “Take away the rubbish and follow me.”
Sylvie cleaned up the garbage of the three people with a low brow, and then walked out of the president’s office with Marley.
Out of the president’s office, Marley said in a deep voice to several people outside, “Everyone stop!”
The three girls outside stood up as soon as they saw him. Respectfully, they also called in unison, “President!”
Marley nodded without expression and said to one of the girls, “Aila, this is your new colleague, Sylvie Mccarthy. In the future, the Secretariat will be in the charge of four of you. Aila, you can tell her about her duties as a secretary.”
“Yes.” Aila smiled and nodded to Marley.
Marley didn’t say much. He turned back to the president’s office. Sylvie was confused, wondering what to do.
There was plenty of air conditioning in the lattice, and several girls looked at her one after another. Sylvie seemed to feel the complex emotions in their eyes, envy, jealousy and sympathy.
It was really complicated, she thought. Maybe they were jealous that she married Marley, but they don’t know that this was a contractual marriage. There was no future at all. It was doomed from the beginning.
Aila nodded to Sylvie and guided her to the opposite position. “Sylvie Mccarthy, this is your position. Everyone will be colleagues in the future. I’d like to introduce them to you. Maisy, Daria, I’m Aila. My Chinese name is Aila. We all secretaries.”
“Hello, everyone!” Sylvie nodded politely and made a brief introduction, “I am Sylvie Mccarthy! ”
Daria chuckled after Sylvie finished speaking.
Sylvie was a little confused about her reaction.
Maisy stared at her and explained, “we know you are Sylvie Mccarthy and you are the president’s wife. However, in the company, he does not allow us to call you president’s wife, but Secretary Sylvie! By the way, is the president nice to you?”
Maisy was a girl who loved gossip. Sylvie asked back, “You see it? If he is nice to me, will he give me a hard time on my first of work?”
She was talking about cleaning up!
They also understood that the president had just made her clean to give her a hard time. The president, who had always been a strict boss, had been a gentleman to the lady, but he was a little cruel to Sylvie Mccarthy.
Sylvie’s word seemed to make them closer.
So far, Sylvie Mccarthy was counted as one of the Secretary of Marley.
Aila gave her the main responsibilities of secretary, the requirements and taboos of Marley. She only knew that Marley was a perfect boss. He did not allow the Secretary to over care about his personal problems, not allow anyone to drink alcohol during work, and no one was allowed to doze during work. In the plan, no wrong words were allowed, and too exposed clothes were not allowed to wear in the office (except for dinner party). As the day was finished, Sylvie had more understanding of the demanding boss.
The other three girls asked her in adoration, “Secretary Sylvie, is the president the same when he is at home?”
Sylvie was stunned and smiled. “The president is not allowed to over care about his personal problems!”
“Just one, I’ll ask a question!”
“?” Maisy smiled, and looked at the other two people, who were smiling.
“Is his penis big?” Maisy swallowed and asked in a low voice.
“What?” Sylvie asked, and she blushed when she looked at the three women’s mischievous smiles .
“So it is big? Secretary Sylvie, how happy you are!”
“What would it be like yo spend a night with him!”
“How manly the president is!”
Sylvie lowered her head, not bearing to look at these women.
Marley left the company at about 4:30 that afternoon with Tyler after finishing working in the office, and then he didn’t come back from work. Sylvie had to go after work.
“Secretary Sylvie, is it time to go out with the president?” Maisy asked.
She sighed and was afraid that they would always inquire about Marley with her. However, her own understanding of him was not as good as three of them.
How ironic they were husband and wife. They were more strangers than a couple.
“I’ll go first!” Sylvie Mccarthy did not answer her question and left with a smile.
The next day she arrived at the company very early, and she went straight to her position after checking in!
As she was packing in her seat, came two people, Marley and Tyler. They obviously came early. Tyler was surprised to see Sylvie and Marley’s gaze fell on her face, without any emotion. Only Sylvie found that Marley, who was in a suit with wrinkles, didn’t sleep well, and his eye circles were clearly and his eyes were bloody.
Was it because the crisis of the company’s current state? She saw the shareholders quarrel with him openly yesterday.
“Good morning, President and Mr. Cooper!” Sylvie greeted.
Marley’s eyes swept her, who was wearing a gray suit, wrapped in a thin body.
“Good morning!” Tyler immediately said hello with a smile when he heard Sylvie’s greeting. “Why do you come so early? It’s only half past seven!” he asked.
“Aren’t you guys the same?” Sylvie asked with a smile.
“Marley is the boss, and he’s the one who earned money. Why did you come so early?”
Sylvie responded with a smile, and Marley’s fierce eyes swept to Tyler’s face. The smile on his face froze and he said, “Secretary Sylvie, good job. Come on!”
“Thank you.”
Marley then said in a deep voice, “Secretary Sylvie, come to my office!”
Tyler also followed them, and Marley said in a deep voice, “Go back to your office!”
“You aren’t being a good friend!” With that, Tyler went to his office before taking a look at Sylvie Mccarthy with amorous eyes.
