Malou POV

Getting to my main office up this morning was a headache. For the thousand time, Francisco decided to be a nuisance and set yet another dozen bouquets to my office.

Red roses, how original. Each with the same message.

I'll make it work your while baby.

Amor you are the only one for me.

Please give me a chance I know what we have is something more.

Malou please talk to me.

You know I won't stop until your mine.

As charming as he thinks his persistence is, it getting rather pathetic. What the fuck am I going to do with these flowers?

"Excuse me, Miss. Yang?", a gentle voice chirped at me.

Turning around I notice Rose. Tall, blonde and stunning blue eyes.

"I figure you would want some coffee, seeing how early it is. Is there something I should do with these flowers?"

I reached for the coffee that she handed over. Taking a sip, god its divine. I should've made Rose my assistant rather my receptionist.

"Thank you Rose. As for the flowers, just get them out of my sight."

Ross frowns slightly and says, " Would it be alright if I give them out to the nearby hospital? It would be such a shame to throw out so many beautiful roses."

Nodding slightly, she beams at me brightly.

"Thank you Miss. Yang! I'm sure they'll be greatly appreciated."

"Take someone else to help you, so you don't carry all of them by yourself."

"I will! Mr. Jason called and said he would be here shortly with your PA."

"Alright, I'll be in my office. Make sure no one's disturbed me unless it an emergency."

Rose smiles at me once again as I head towards my office.

—————————————————————

"You need to do this again, there is mistakes here and here", I say as I scribble on the contracts.

"While they might be drafts it doesn't excuse such mistakes. Review this article and make sure there is no typos next time you even consider bringing me another draft Carson. You're dismissed."

Carson nods meekly before saying, "Understood Miss. Yang."

And walks out the door.

It 9am, I've been at work for three hours. The work piles up when u have no PA to delegate things too, and I'm barely catching up on this week's financials.

Then idiots like Carson come in and present me a barely reasonable draft. We are one of the biggest names in jewelry, with a certain prestige to maintain.

Yangs Enterprise, as ever powerful as deadly. Especially my father.

Sighing, I bit the tip of my pen. My phone then rings.

"Yang" I say picking it up.

"Miss Yang, Jason and your PA are here for their meeting."

"Let them up" I say hanging up.

Let's hope this new PA is better than the last one.

Marco POV

"Marco, this is Rose. She's our lovely receptionist," Jason introduces.

Bright blue eyes beam at me and a sweet smiles settles on her face.

"So nice to meet you! Are you perhaps Mrs.Yangs new PA?"

Her eyes curiously observed me up and down.

Nodding I say, "I am indeed. Very nice to see meet you as well."

She smiles at me and says, " I guess we will see each other a lot more won't we?"

She giggles before turning to the phone and dialing.

Jason darts his eyes between me and Rose and lifts his eyebrow, as a smirk spreads on his face.

Before I can say anything, Rose says we could go ahead.

Jason knocks on the door before going in.

Miss Yang doesn't even look up and says, " I didn't say come in."

"I figured since you have an appointment with us and since I'm your number two. There was no need for pesky formalities"

"You figured wrong Jason, try again."

"Aw Malou, don't be a bore. Now meet your new PA, Marco Diaz."

That's when Miss Yang looks up from what she's doing and meets my gaze.

Dios mío.

Deep black eyes pierce through me as if dissecting every bit of me. Her eyes lazily look up and down, as if I'm the only thing she sees. The air in the room felt electric and it was like every breath taken was palpable in that moment.

Beautiful is the only way I could describe her. She stand and goes around her desk before standing right in front of me.

Long black hair in a white dress. Red lipstick only intensifies the way she carries herself.

With such elegance and grace.

What the fuck are you thinking Marco?

Miss Yang extends her hand and says, "Nice to meet you Mr. Diaz."

Snapping out of my thoughts I reply, "Likewise, lovely to meet you Miss. Yang."
