MICO couldn’t provide an answer, and so he just shrugged, he was only delivering his job, right?
As for Jasira, she was somewhat befuddled as to why the park was chosen to meet, and she wondered who the Mr Scott was.
Well, she shrugged her shoulders.
“Which of the park anyways?”, she asked turning to pick up her phone from the dressing table.
“City Park, the popular one”, he replied and put off the iPad, dropping his hands down.
“Mm”, she nodded knowingly, “is that all?”, she asked.
He nodded.
“All for now Boss”, he replied.
“Okay fine. 2pm today at City Park, we have just how many hours…”, she trailed off to check out the time on her phone, “seven to eight hours, it’s fine, we will be there”, she said and got up.
Mico nodded.
“Okay Boss, I will take my leave now”, he said and turned to leave.
“Has breakfast been served?”, she called back, asking.
“Not yet Boss J, in a few minutes time I think”, he replied and opening the door, he walked out of the room.

As soon as he punched in his password, the glass door slid right and Jeremy entered, he has just arrived work for the day.
He settled into his seat, put on his laptop and instantly began working on it.
Just then, a call came into his phone and he looked into it, it was from a business partner.
Speaking of phone calling, his thoughts quickly travelled to the previous night, when he had made the first ever phone call to the woman he has been chasing, the hard wit lady, and he smiled, it was one of the sweetest phone calls he has ever made.
He picked up the phone and answered the call.
“Yes?”, he spoke.
“Good morning Mr Petersons”, the caller greeted, “have you seen the email I sent?”, he asked.
“Yeah, I am looking at it right now”, he replied, scrolling up and down the laptop.
At this juncture, the door opened and Carrie stepped in, he glanced up at her and back to the laptop. She has resumed work.
“Okay, I would revert on it”, he said.
Carrie walked up to his desk, carrying with her some files.
“Alright”, and with this, he hung up.
“Good morning Sir”, Carrie greeted dropping the files before him on the desk.
“Hey Carrie, how are you feeling now?”, he asked, dropping his phone and looking up at her.
She nodded.
“I’m fine now Sir”, she replied.
He nodded.
“I see. I just finished speaking with Mr Thompson, the documents came in? He said he sent them to you”.
She nodded.
“Yes Sir, already checked on them”, she replied.
“Okay, send them to me immediately”, he said and turned back to the laptop.
“Okay. Those are the documents I was working on before taking a leave, they are completed now”, she said.
“Alright. My schedule for today?”, he asked.
“Urgh, none really. All meetings for now really doesn’t need your presence, the heads of department would take care of it”, she replied.
“How about the shipment of the clothings, what is the progress?”, he asked, and a confused look appeared on her face.
She was confused, and as a result of that, she gave no reply as she thought of what to say.
Jeremy had to look up at her, seeing her looking confusedly, it dawned on him.
“Oh! My bad. It’s Frank who I’m supposed to be asking that. Okay, that brings me to this, he stayed in your stead the day you were off, meet him and let him brief you of the recent happenings, so you get posted”, he explained.
“Okay”, and then she turned to leave.
Jeremy looked at her.
“Call me Nancy, I have got work for her this morning”, he instructed.
“Noted Sir”, she said and with that, left the office.
Hmm, Jeremy was astonished, and wondered if she was okay. She didn’t pull up a fight, frown or say those wordings of her trying to be clingy when he had asked her to get Nancy.
He noticed she didn’t also try to flirt, and you know, pull up all those dramas of hers. Hmm, it was worth wondering.
Anyways, Jeremy shrugged and continued with his work.

The door to Mr Redford’s study opened to reveal Scott come in. He closed the door behind him and then walked up to the large study desk, Mr Redford was sitted on his study seat and staring at him walk up.
“Morning Boss”, he greeted and bowed.
“Sit”, Mr Redford motioned, pointing to the seat opposite him and Scott sat.
“Have you arranged the meeting with the lady?”, he asked.
Scott nodded.
“Very well Boss, done”, he replied.
“At the park right?”.
“Yeah”.
“So how sure are you that this lady gonna do this? How sure are you that she is gonna get it done?”, he asked.
Scott smiled wryly.
“It’s her job Boss, she is good at it, and most importantly of all, perfect for the job. Just with a very fat pay, she delivers without ado”, he said.
Mr Redford nodded slowly.
“I see, a woman?”, he asked.
“Ahh! Boss, she is just a woman at the outside, within, she is a beast”, Scott said, “the man who recommended her to me told me exactly the kind of jobs she has done for him, ahh, Boss, she is the right hand man to Lord Lucario, I guess you know him”, he explained.
He scoffed.
“Save up all that baseless talks, if she doesn’t get this done, I might have your head chopped off”, he said and Scott laughed.
“No Boss, if she doesn’t get this done, we will find some one else to do it for us”, he said, smiling awkwardly.
Mr Redford hissed.
“So you meeting today, in the afternoon huh?”, he asked picking up a large brown envelope from the desk
Scott nodded.
“Yes Boss”, he replied.
