Beauty Divine

Chapter (8):

Monday came and Madeline was in the cab, getting ready to see her boss and work under the title 'assistant' and not secretary, and she wanted to see Emily who was in the game too.

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator and saw Emily on the phone, she played it cool while walking to her desk and Emily finished her call.

"Morning" said Emily.

"Morning to you too my colleague assistant" She smirked.

"W-What are you talking about?" She played dumb. "I'm not an assistant"

"Save it sister, Wren told me" She chuckled.

"Well, in that case yes I'm an assistant" She looked at her. "Sorry I didn't tell you before but it was part of my job"

"I know" she said putting a hand on her hip.

"Are you mad?"

"No"

"Not even a little?"

"Mm, no"

"That's a relief, phew" She waved her hand as if it's a fan.

She laughed. "Let's start"

The elevator opened revealing both Wren and Eleanor talking with each other, they walked past their desks saying their good mornings. As she was closing the door she locked eyes with Madeline and flashed her a small smile.

............................................................

Three hours later after working, Madeline went to the cafeteria to bring herself some coffee, and saw Wren grabbing a coffee, she smiled at the look of her manager making herself a cup of coffee.

"Need help?" She smiled and Wren looked at the source of the voice and smiled back.

"No, thanks. I can manage" She raised her cup.

"You probably need the coffee to beat me in the next race" She smirked and took a sip.

"Ha ha very funny" She grinned at her. "We'll see next time"

"Sure boss"

Wren left and Madeline enjoyed the taste of her coffee until she finished her break and went back to her desk.

Eleanor Knocked on Wren's door and entered with a pile of papers, putting them on her desk.

"That's all what you need and I already have done my part"

"Okay thank you" She took a look on the papers. "Even though I'm not sure if I can finish it tonight"

"I wish if I could stay and help but I have a plane to catch"

"Well, good luck with your trip to Italy and please don't forget to tell me about the show"

"Don't worry. See you next week" She waved at her and left.

...........................................................

It was almost 5:00 and Madeline started gathering her things and she dialed her friend.

"Hey, Eva"

"Hey friend"

"Listen, I've been thinking, do you wanna hang out with me tonight?"

"I'd love that but I'm with Paul. He is taking me out for dinner"

"Oh! Well, then we could reschedule"

"Of course. Sorry"

"No it's fine, I'll talk to you later. Bye" She hung up.

As for Wren, she was in her office working trying to finish her work before tomorrow. She rolled her sleeves up to her elbows and unbuttoned her three top buttons, she sighed heavily from the exhaustion, there was no one to help her now, all the employees left including Madeline. A knock on the door made her tear her eyes away from the paper for a minute, she wondered who would be here at this time.
