Over the next few days, Book threw himself into the task of finding the perfect candidate to serve as Bright's secretary. From dawn till dusk, he conducted interviews, sifted through resumes, and met with potential candidates, determined to find someone who could handle the demands of the job with grace and efficiency.

Each day blurred into the next as Book tirelessly worked his way through the pool of applicants, his dedication unwavering despite the mounting pressure. From fresh graduates to seasoned professionals, he left no stone unturned in his quest to find the right fit for Bright's office.

As the days stretched on, Book's exhaustion began to show, the lines of fatigue etched deep into his face. But he pressed on, fueled by a sense of duty and determination to see the task through to the end.

Finally, after a week of endless interviewing and deliberation, Book narrowed down the field to a handful of candidates, each one promising in their own right. With a sense of satisfaction tinged with relief, he knew that the end was in sight, and that soon, Bright would have the support he needed to navigate the challenges ahead.

Book glanced at his watch before reaching for his phone. With a few swift taps, he dialed his boyfriend's number, his heart racing with anticipation as he waited for the call to connect.

"Hey, love," Book said, a weary smile tugging at his lips. "It's been a long day."

On the other end of the line, Force's voice was warm and reassuring. "I know, babe. You've been working non-stop. What's on your mind?"

Book couldn't help but smile at the endearment, feeling a surge of love and gratitude for the man on the other end of the line. "I need a favor," he began, his tone becoming more serious.

 "I've narrowed down the candidates for Bright's secretary position, but I want to make sure we're making the right choice. Can you run a background check on them for me?"

"Of course, darling," Force replied without hesitation. "Send me their details, and I'll get started right away. You know I'll do anything for you."

With a sense of relief, Book thanked Force and ended the call, grateful for the unwavering support of his partner. As he returned to his work, a sense of confidence washed over him, knowing that together, they would find the perfect candidate to support Bright in his journey ahead.

Finally, as the clock struck midnight, Book received the last of the background reports. With a sense of anticipation, he carefully reviewed each one, weighing the pros and cons of each candidate. In the end, there was one standout candidate who stood head and shoulders above the rest. With a sense of certainty, Book made the decision to recommend them to Bright.

"Win Métawin Opas-iamkajorn," Book murmured to himself, the name rolling off his tongue with a sense of satisfaction. With the candidate chosen, Book felt a surge of excitement as he prepared to deliver the news to Bright the next morning.
