Logan remembers Red Animation Studio, a big animation and movie special-effects company in the US. The animation company works with several well-known film producers in Hollywood and Europe.
He had heard rumors that Red Animation Studio had opened a new office in this country but never published their office location.
'So this is their office!? And the Young Madam is the Director of Red Animation Studio in this country?'
This is fantastic news. Logan suddenly felt excited to report this big news to Master Xander.
He still remembers several times they wanted to partner with this company to make their animation movie project, but this company always rejected them. For various weird reasons, they offer a fantastic amount of money but still refuse.
And to make Logan even more confused, until today, Master Xander is still trying to approach this company, but the result is still the same.
It was still hard for Logan to believe that Young Madam was the Director of the Red Animation Studio for the Astington branch. How cool is that!?
Logan couldn't hide how excited he was right now.
Soon they arrived at the 9th floor.
There was a female receptionist at the front desk. She greeted them as they exited the elevator.
As they entered the room, Logan was stunned. The whole floor looks more like a modern lounge than a business office. Minibars, a small cafe, and modern kitchens are placed neatly in the room, with one-way glass walls separating this room from the next.
In the middle of the room is a U-Shape ivory sofa with views towards the blue sea. And near the kitchen area, there is a long wooden table with six neatly arranged chairs.
'Is this her office or her house?' Logan wondered while looking around him.
"Logan, could you come here for a second? There's something I need to explain to you." Scarlett said as she sat on the sofa.
Logan gasped, and he immediately sat down.
Scarlett smiled at Logan, who looked surprised to see her office. However, when she glanced at the man sitting to her right side, she almost laughed — Cruz's face looked so ugly. He seems angry, staring at Logan.
For now, she would ignore him. She would explain to him later after talking to Logan.
"This is the ninth floor, dedicated to my office and my personal workspace. You can go anywhere on this floor but not in that room." Scarlett pointed at the black door in the corner. It is her studio, and no one could enter the room without Scarlett's personal authorization.
"And the white door on the side is my office. And the door on the other end is the office area. You can share that room with Cruz..." Scarlett continues to explain.
"I understand, Miss Scarlett," Logan nodded.
"I can't give you any tasks for the time being. So you may do anything you think necessary. And this is my assistant, his name is Cruz Reeves. You can ask him if there's anything you want to ask. I think he will be thrilled to help you..." Scarlett said.
ραпdα nᴏνa| сom Then she looks at Cruz and sends her a glare to force him to be nice to Logan, or she will punish him.
Logan nodded while looking at the red-haired man, who was now sulkily looking at him. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Reeves."
Cruz cleared his throat. He still had not entirely accepted this new arrangement; boss's two assistants!? How could that be? However, he couldn't say anything.
With a forced smile, Cruz stood up and took Logan's handshake, "Call me, Cruz. Nice to meet you too, Mr. Logan."
"All right, you guys can talk. I'm going to work now…." Scarlett said, but before, she warned Cruz, as if she wanted to tell him, don't talk too much.
Scarlett walked to the black door but stopped just before she opened it. She heard Cruz calling her.
"Boss, wait! I have something to report..." He stood behind her.
"Report?" She turned to look at him.
Cruz leaned closer to Scarlett and whispered, "Haha, boss, I just wanted to ask. Why did you hire a personal assistant?" Suddenly his face turned somber before he continued, "D-Do you want to replace me!? And how about your driver?"
He had already found a reliable driver for her. But now, it looks like she'll never use that driver.
"Follow me!" Scarlett opened the white door and walked in.
The room is not too big, but the neat arrangement of modern furniture makes the room look spacious and dominated by white and blue colors.
There is a sofa set in the corner of the room with sea views and a wall-mounted flat-screen television. On the other side of the room are a large table, an iMac on the wide modern table, and a large bookshelf and ornaments behind the CEO's chair.
Scarlett sat in her CEO chair and asked Cruz to sit in the chair in front of her desk. She ignored his curious stares as she busied herself, turning on the iMac and taking out her laptop. She placed it on the table.
She also turned on the television. After she found her favorite series on Netflix, she only looked toward Cruz.
"Earlier, what did you want to ask me?"
Cruz rolled his eyes, feeling hurt.
His boss doesn't love him anymore. He now has Logan.
He took a deep breath before he spilled all the questions that tormented his mind.
"Boss, why are you hiring a personal assistant again? Do you want to fire me? And what about your driver?"
Right now, Cruz really didn't understand why Scarlett abruptly behaved like this. She decided to live elsewhere yesterday, even though her house was ready to live in. And now, she has hired a new assistant who also becomes her driver.
"Do you want to know?" Scarlett felt like humoring this man.
"Of course! That's why I asked." Cruz sighed long as he crossed his arms over his chest. His eyes stared intently at his boss as if wanting to dig into her brain.
What really happened to her? Why did she suddenly change so much after her vacation?
Did something happen on Island B that made her brain work strangely?
Cruz stared at her closely, trying to find an answer.
