Chapter 218 - Interviews (2/2)
Time flew by as she worked her way through the files, one after the other. A knock at the door made her aware of the time. It was close to her break time but she still had to deal with some human beings first who had bothered to apply for the position of her personal assistant.
”Come in.” She closed the file which was before her and spoke loudly, making sure that the person on the other side of the door could hear her words.
A girl who was dressed up to the nines, walked inside her office. Her heels clinking against the marbled floor as she sauntered her way towards her desk.
Just merely looking at the woman was giving Stella a headache as her sharp perfume wafted up her nose.

Half an hour later, Stella sat quietly on her seat, holding her head in between her palms as she massaged her temples. ”Damn! It's harder than I thought it would be.” She muttered to herself as she continued to massage her temples. Within half an hour, she had managed to interview around ten people, half of which didn't even made to the chair across her and were asked to leave right after they stepped inside the office. The other half were more focused on bootlicking, which for the record, she hated to her core.
She buzzed Bella through the intercom, asking her to come to her office right away. As soon as Bella entered, she saw her aggrieved expression and couldn't help but chuckle. ”I told you that I can do it for you. I knew you'd hate it.” She spoke up as she walked up to her desk.
”How many people do we have left?” Stella questioned her while ignoring her remarks. She wasn't in the mood to entertain her.
”One more left, a man.” Bella replied to her.
”Send him in. The sooner I get done with this, the better.” Stella pursed her lips in an adorable pout. She looked no less than a baby who was forced by her parents to finish off her homework.
”Oh, wait!” She stopped Bella just as she was about to go out. ”Is my lunch ready?” She questioned her and continued after getting a confirmatory nod from her. ”Why don't you send him inside with it? He's after all here to be my personal assistant.” She just couldn't control her hunger anymore. Moreover, she could bet that her babies were hungry as well.
Bella shook her head in helplessness as she walked out of the room after giving her an okay sign.
A few minutes later, a man who was dressed in a black checkered suit walked inside the office after knocking at the door lightly. He was holding a tray in his hands which was filled with food, leaving no space for even a napkin or tissue paper.
”Good morning, Ma'am.” He politely greeted Stella as she walked up to her desk down the tray right before her. He continued to stand across the table from her as she checked whether the steak was cooked according to her preference. She sliced it in two equal halves to check that it wasn't raw from the center.
A satisfied smile embraced her lips when her eyes landed on the perfectly grilled piece of meat. She was about to dig into her when she realized that she wasn't the only one in the room. ”Please have a seat.” She added as she motioned the man to sit on the chair across her, inwardly scolding herself for being so forgetful.
