After the incident, Lisa has be more careful because if it should repeat itself, she doesn't if even know how her boss will react to it.
It was already time for work closure and her boss is not making any move to go home.
Am tired and I need to go home. Lisa complained to herself.
Lisa!!
Lisa heard her name and turned. For the first time working with his boss, he called her name and for some weird reason her heart skipped a beat.
Sir! Lisa managed to mutter as she stood up and went close to answer him.
We are working overtime. Grey informed
We? Shocked Lisa asked
I wasn't seeking your permission, I just informed you.
Lisa wanted to loose her cool, for what reason will he utter such thing. Can't you be polite?
What did you say? Asked Grey
Did I say it out loud? Lisa asked as she covered her mouth
Why do you think i should be polite? Am the boss remember? Grey asked challengingly
Lisa wanted to give in to the challenge but she refused to be tempted
Yes you are? Lisa replied
Then why should I be polite?
Because we are all human and we deserve to be respected and be asked for our permission before deciding. What if I have an important event to night?Lisa covered her mouth as she realized that she has falling into the trap of this cunning man.
Are you questioning me? He asked. Grey smiled because he just lured her into his trap, he has come to realize that she hates being intimidated and right now it's interesting seeing her fall to the temptation.
No sir, but... Am sorry. Lisa decided to choose her words carefully.
For talking back at me, you will be working overtime with for three days.
For t-h-r-e-e days?! Lisa was so shocked that she didn't realize that she shouted.
Any problem? Asked Grey, as evil smirk was all over his face.
Nothing, but..... Okay sir. Lisa decided to reserve her comment.
You may now go, I will call you later, we need to draft a plan regarding our next project and evaluate it with that the project head will get tomorrow.
Ok sir, but what is the need for you to go through the stress if you have people handling the project? Lisa asked curiously
If I let people do my job, then I wouldn't be the most successful bachelor in City X.
Sometimes they are incompetent and sometimes their best isn't enough. Replied Grey
So if you draft yours, then you evaluate theirs with yours, then take the best or rather take relevant points from each and make the best out of both. Lisa said as she was amazed with the way he works,he's really smart and deserves all the accolades he receives.
Correct. I would advise you to take a nap, because once we start working, no break till we are done. Advised Grey.
Okay sir, thanks. Said Lisa as she walked back to her desk.
Lisa's pov:
They've been working on the new project for about an hour and some minutes and she must say that she is really impressed on how intelligent and smart her boss, he works with complete dedication, no iota of fatigue or incompetence.
But compared to him, her eyes were already feeling heavy, it's been long she stayed up this late to work, she prays she doesn't sleep off while working else she will be dead.
Grey's pov:
He really underestimated his assistant capabilities because she has been able to contribute and state relevant points which really amazed him. But right now he couldn't help but smile, looking at her she is trying so hard not to sleep and she looks like a puppy.
