-Zach POV-
Knock knock
Josh: Come in.
"Josh. Do you have a minute?"
Josh: Sure. What can I do for you? Are you settling well?
"Yeah. I have some things I need your input on if thats ok?"
Josh: Sure. Ill see what I can help.
"I looked through my team's portfolio and I believe Im overstaffed. I want to be able to develop them with more responsibilies and in turn cut some budget."
Josh: So you want to let some go?
"No. But what do you say we do internal transfers? I noticed from the reports that you are in need of someone to assist in publicity and outreach? Why not I recommend someone for it so you dont have to look or interview others?"
Josh: That sounds good. Who do you have in mind?
"Looking at the profiles and experience I would recommend Stacy Denver."
Josh raised his eyebrows.
From my research, Josh and Stacy were having an affair. With Stacy transferred there, she will be closer to him being on the same office level.
Josh smirked slightly.
Jackpot.
Josh: That sounds great. You can process the transfer.
"Will do. Thanks."

Knock Knock.
"Come in."
Stacy: Yes Mr Ashton. You called?
She smiled flirtatiously at me.
Gosh. She never quit trying.
"Yes Ms Denver. I have some good news for you. Ive just spoken to Mr Gabber about it."
Stacy: What is it? Am I replacing Sanders as your assistant? I knew you preferred me.
I was starting to get pissed but maintained my professionalism.
"No. Ms Sanders stays with me. As it turns out, you will be transferred to another department due to your experience and expertise."
Stacy: What? I dont want to. I like it here.
"Its non negotiable Ms Denver. It will be assisting in publicity and outreach."
She thought for a moment.
Stacy: (frowning) Why me?
"As I said, you are one of the more experienced staff and it will open doors to new opportunities for you. Among all my staff, you are the most suited."
I lied to her.
She bought it with her obvious excitement to my compliment.
Stacy: Oh. In that case. I would love to. When will I start?
"I will be processing your transfer with immediate effect seeing they need you there asap. You start tomorrow."
Stacy: Oh thank you Mr Ashton.
She left my office very pleased.

Gabriella POV
I was typing on my laptop trying to finish the reports from yesterday.
Stacy came by my desk with a huge smirk.
Stacy: Well, I guess this is the last time Im seeing your pathetic self seeing that I got transferred to a better job. Im feeling great so I dont want to look at your sorry ass for the rest of the day. Toodles.
Promoted?
Part of me was jealous but another part was glad she will be out of this office.
I dont have to deal with her.
Are things finally looking up?
