On the other end, when the meeting ended it was already 8 PM.
The woman sitting at the right-most side of the table tried to sneakily move her hips. They'd been sitting for almost five hours and it was really tiring.
As everyone was packing up, she made sure to appear like she just happened to look at the woman sitting in the center.
Everyone else looked worn out, but her Big Boss was still sitting straight. During the meeting that had lasted a few hours, other than that one video call she answered mid-conference, she didn't say a single word more than necessary. Even her instructions and questions were simple and to the point.
After declaring the meeting over, Mikha got up and strode quickly out of the conference room.
The woman stopped looking and silently sighed. Before anyone could leave, the Boss' assistant came back in.
"Director Lim sends her thanks. You all worked hard tonight so she will treat everyone to anything you would like. Just bring the receipts to the accounting department tomorrow to cover everyone's expenses."
The top management of a big corporation doesn't really need these big meal blowouts. They can all afford Michelin star restaurants if they wanted to. So though no one looked particularly joyous, everyone still made sure to express their thanks. After all, they need to make sure to be in the future CEO's good graces.
As they filtered out of the room, another female worker squeezed her way to her side and whispered, "After seeing the Big Boss for five hours, I think I've almost had my fill of her."
Ever since the new boss had taken up office, even the female staff of the company had started working a lot harder. The boss is extremely beautiful, smart, rich and single -basically everything a girl could ask for in a woman. The male population of the company still looked in admiration to the new boss but they know better than to make a move.
What a pity, all their teenage dreams were shattered an hour ago.
The employee seemed to remember something and said, "Did you see that trending news on the internet? There's a lot of vloggers and insiders saying that Aiah Arceta is Director Lim's girlfriend. I heard the voice just now, I think it really is Miss Aiah."
"I don't know." Saying so, the woman turned around and waved her hand. "I'm not feeling very well, I won't be going. See you tomorrow."
Just when she reached the parking lot, she met Mikha who was about to get into her car.
She didn't think too much and just hurriedly walked towards her boss.
"Director Lim!"
Mikha stopped and looked up, silently waiting for her to continue.
"Uhmm," the lady put her hair behind her ear and asked softly, almost embarrassedly, "I didn't drive here today, are you free to... send me home?"
She made sure it was obvious what she was actually trying to say. She felt that in this day and age, it's not about who came first. A good woman is someone anyone can try to get. It's really up to one's abilities, and even if Aiah is good looking, her background and her education definitely wouldn't be as good as hers.
Mikha frowned. "Then why are you in the parking lot?"
The woman paused. "Huh?"
"I've seen your résumé."
The woman's lips curled up. "I'm very honored..."
"A well-educated woman, who forgot to bring her car keys." Her voice was cold. "Then how did you get here this morning?"
