"She's something else, isn't she? She knows how to work it so that CEO Jones would take her as his a.s.sistant." Whispered Aiko to Fumika.

"Hmph! You're right. You think she's sweet and innocent. Come to find out. She's nothing but a hussy. I would rather stay as a Junior secretary than diminish myself like her. I would never stoop that low, never mind!" Interject Aiko, another junior secretary to the co-workers.

Sato smacked his junior secretaries on their heads as he came and heard them chattering about their boss and his wife. *Pak!-Pak!-Pak!* If you have nothing to do! Why don't you all just shut your mouth before, I sealed it all for you! You guys have no idea who Ashley Gusman." He warned them before he left to go to Tanaga's office to clean it up in case it's a mess.

"Huh? Why is the whole room spotless?" He mumbles to himself. He looked around the whole office, but he couldn't find anything out of place or any evidence that they did a hanky-funky. The only new thing and out of place was the first aid kit on the top of the table that Ashley had left. "Hmm, this is nuts! What did we overhear earlier? Whatever!"

Sato was totally out of his mind trying to figure what he had heard a while ago. He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he works. He decided to call his junior secretaries to show them.

"You guys! Come over and take a look at this!" He shouts out to the ladies who came speedily after overhearing him. All three were thrilled to see the whole disorder produced by Tanaga and Ashley. Eyes were protruding out of the socket as they progressed Sato. "Boss, you summoned us?" All three said in harmony while frantically looking around the room.

"Oh', what is this?" Blurted Aiko while eyes were curious as to why the whole room was immaculate?

"Yea! Why is the whole room immaculate, they didn't have enough time to do that?" Interjected Fumika with eyes as wide as a saucer.

"This is inconceivable! The whole office is clean, so' what were they doing when we heard sir Jones squealing from the top of his lungs?" Aiko was saying for she has her phone already out to take a picture and post it in the social media with a hashtag #HowPinaydoesinterview. Unfortunately, that didn't work out well. They went back out of the room empty-handed.

"You all see it with your own two eyes, nothing unethical had happened here. Therefore, I better not hear you guys gossip about Miss Gusman or else..." Warned Sato to the three junior secretaries.

Tanaga and Ashley arrived at Chairwoman Hanada's office without delay. However, the older woman was not there, and it's only her secretary. When the secretary saw the two arrive, she quickly got up and greeted Tanaga. "Good day, CEO Jones!" Curtseyed soon after to show her regard.

"Hmm," he nodded to acknowledge the greeting. Instead of asking the secretary where his grandmother... He turned to Ashley, "let's go to my uncle's office, and she might be over there."

Ashley only nodded in acknowledgment to Tanaga and turned around to follows wherever he's going. However, before leaving, she put on a slight smile on her lips while looking at the secretary who didn't even acknowledge her.

Tanaga whose used to walking without troubling to wait for anyone... He just kept on walking without turning around to check if Ashley had followed him or not. Every employee they ran across would bow and greet him, and he would nod and continued walking straight.

At first, Ashley thought of walking at the side right behind every employee they ran across. Just like when she first time when Tanaga had invited her into the building. However, she thought about it and decided against it since she's now formally his a.s.sistant, and her position is higher than those employees that bowing to their boss.

Therefore, she proudly raised her head and continued following Tanaga as they went towards the President's office.

It was a very long walk before they actually made it to the President's office. It was still a long way, but, Tanaga could already see the President's a.s.sistant desk, and he could see how he quickly got up to greet him as he approaches.

When they were about to reach him, the a.s.sistant quickly bent down and bowed to Tanaga. "Good day, CEO Jones!" and waited until Tanaga acknowledges him before straightening up.

" What can I do for your sir Jones?" He hesitantly asked while looking at the door of President's Hanada's office.

Tanaga stood still only long enough to wait and make sure that Ashley was following right behind him. When he saw that she was a distance away, he motioned to her to come closer and stay right next to him. Ashley complied and walked faster and stood right next to him as they walked inside the office.

President Hanada's secretary was stunned to see what Tanaga has done. Ever since he started working for the company, never did he saw Tanaga waited for anyone except for Chairwoman Hanada. Everyone remains on him, including his uncle President Hanada. That was a shocker for the secretary and his eyebrow raised while in deep thought.

'I wonder who this girl that she could make CEO Jones wait for her. Is she a girlfriend? Hmmm, this is interesting... I need to check it with Fumika. I'm sure she knows who this girl is?' He quickly went ahead of them to open the door without announcing to President Hanada that he has company.

As soon as the door open, the first thing that they saw was Ohani's sweet smiling face while she's busy blabbering her mouth to President Hanada. Meanwhile, COO Koji Hanada was only sitting at one corner of the sofa without paying mind to the two. He kept himself busy reading a magazine.

Biglang nanlaki ang mata ni Tanaga ng mamataan niya si Ohani at President Hanada na ang ganda ng kwentuhan. Mabilis itong pumasok at tumayo sa harapan ng tatlo. Pero sa mismong harapan siya ni Ohani pumwesto.

Tanaga's eyes widened when he saw Ohani seated and busy speaking with President Hanada. He couldn't understand what the reason that Ohani was visiting with his uncle is, and he didn't like it one bit. He walked straight ahead and stopped right in front of them to let them know he's intention.

Once he was standing right in front of three of them, "What are you doing here?" He snarled at Ohani, who was stunned to see him standing right in front of them with a scowl on his face.
