The next day, to Isla's disappointment, Zane did not come to the office. Scratching her belly, Anne walked into the staff room and pulled a cup from the shelf.
"I've noticed a change in your dressing, good." She scooped a generous amount of chocolate powder in her cup. Her friend was eating like a monster nowadays.
"Yes." Isla looked at her mustard deep neck blouse and pencil skirt, which had a long front slit. She had put on her velvet heeled sandals today, a good thing about her position was that she did not have to wear Aqua Resort's uniform. But where was the guy, she had all dressed up?
As if reading her thoughts, Anne said, "Zane's out to meet a client today. He emailed." She took a sip of her drink before sinking in a chair.
"I never saw John doing that." Isla mentally scolded herself for not checking her emails. She had been busy writing a report on Angus Brown. Then she had an idea, her eyes sparkled as she mused, pulling her laptop forward.
Anne shrugged and got up and before leaving, she advised cheekily, "Seduce the man, Isla. He's a good catch; both of you can play manager at Aqua Resort."
Isla did not respond, instead, her fingers tapped away on the laptop, time to put Rule Number 3 into action. "Send bitchy email," muttered Isla.
Chuckling she leaned on her chair, staring at her email. It read:
Zane, I need you to forward me your internship documents ASAP.
Isla clicked onto the send button. "Did someone not say to boss the man around?"
At midday, Isla decided to drive into town for lunch. To her surprise, she saw Zane in the lobby with a demon called Angus Brown. What the hell was going on? Immediately she cut in their progress, and asked, "Zane can I have a word, thanks." Isla felt her voice was coated in sugar.
A shadow of seriousness about his face, Zane took few steps away from Angus and with a nod, promoted Isla to speak.
"What are you doing?" hissed Isla. "This man is planning to expose Aqua Resort."
"Exactly the reason he is here, now will you excuse me?" Without sparing a second glance he walked away with Angus.
