June 3 the Year 2022
After an entire week of enjoying themselves on the beach, Azarel finally returned back to his office and work. However, that is with the addition of another person. The man that has been unemployed for like half a year finally got a new job and one that he would have never expected he would have half a year ago
While Azarel and Evren were still in a state of happiness, the former's real secretary's mood as exactly the opposite of that
All the work that Azarel left while he took a vacation fell into Glynn's shoulders. The company don't even have a vice CEO yet and as a result, all the work was left to Glynn while the CEO is enjoying his late honeymoon with his husband in the beach
As a result of that, dark and heavy circles can be seen underneath Glynn's eyes. She was literally overwork to the extreme. She looks like a woman that doesn't have enough sleep for years now. Not to mention, the expression in her face was also far from being friendly
She was even using her glare to show protest and make her boss aware at just hos aggrieved she was
Unfortunately, no matter how much she glares at her boss, it was completely ineffective for her to receive the result that she wanted to have
As for the reason? It was simple. Azarel is currently busy teaching Evren what he has to do as Azarel's secretary
Azarel thought that Evren just made the secretary excuse for him to have a legitimate reason to be with his husband even in the workplace. However, he did not expect that despite it being just an 'excuse', Evren seems to be serious about learning
The man that is lazy and does not even want to work is currently working hard to learn. Does Evren actually want to improve himself so that Azarel would see him in a better light and might accept his affections?
While thinking of that, Azarel cannot help but sigh. No one is really safe from his charm. Even the world's biggest gold digger fell for him and started improving himself
"I'm sorry, am I that hard to teach?" Evren asks with a red face. Thinking that Azarel sighed all because of his inability to grasp the man's teachings that well
Seeing that, Azarel let out an awkward cough. "N-no, you are actually really great. You are the fastest learner I have ever seen" he bluffed, causing Glynn to scoff loudly while thinking in her head
'Boss, this might be your first time teaching someone but aren't you always criticizing your employees that doesn't reach your standards? How many of them cried because of your harsh words? Not to mention, you are clearly lying as I am sure that you have seen employees that learned better and faster compared to your husband! '
The more Glynn thinks, the more furious he was. Azarel is already back but even then, Glynn is still forced to do the company work as the CEO is actually teaching a new secretary that does not have any educational background or any prior experience!
Did someone swap her boss's smart brains to the brain of a dumb person? WHy did Azarel not think of letting other employees teach Evren even if he wants to train him as a secretary
Unfortunately, those two seems to not be bothered by anything else and Glynn can only continue working
Hours passed and Azarel decided that they should rest. "Alright, just continue familiarizing yourself with the Microsoft excel. That would help you work faster in the future. For now, I am tired and starving, Glynn, order food for us" Azarel ordered
The pitiful and overworked secretary can only curse in her mind. What tired and starving? Was not the only thing he does for the past hours feeding her dog food?
Wasnt it Glynn that does all the work while the CEO is leisurely teaching his husband?
Glynn can only grit her teeth and decided to order very expensive dishes as an act of small revenge on her part
------
Around 30 minutes have passed and the food finally arrives. Azarel sat on his office chair and although he seems to be an irresponsible CEO, once he start working, he would surely perform exemplary
His efficiency is faster than even his skilled secretary and he can do the job of several people alone
Azarel worked while Evren fed him causing Glynn to almost put alcohol in her eyes. She just wants to return to her small office outside of Azarel's office. Unfortunately, the boss did not allow that
After all, it would be annoying if they have to call for someone when needing anything or when Glynn has to continue working after eating and Azarel starts teaching Evren again
While Azarel's eyes were locked on his computer, he suddenly stared at it intently. "Huh, seems like I have to personally make a move today" Azarel muttered and Evren that has an entire piece of boiled egg in his mouth stared at Azarel
The hours of learning starved the man resulting in him wolfing down the food. "Hmm, what is it?" Evren asks curiously
"Nothing much, just an artist in my company being poached by another company. No, he must have been poached already considering how my intelligence report shows that he was selling information of our company to another company" Azarel replied
Almost all company has its rival or at least just enemies because of the similar interests that they have. Azarel's company which is considered a rising star have even more enemies because of the other companies' jealousy
"Now, as my secretary. From the three, negotiation/legal persuasion, putting pressure, or blackmailing, what would I use in this kind of situation?" Azarel asks just for the sake of amusement but Evren still have the right answer
"Blackmailing of course" Evren answered and the other man glanced at him in interest
"Do elaborate"
"That artist already betrayed you by selling your company information to another company. With Azarel Lancaster's personality, he would not take it lying down and he will surely avenge himself. Now, you will either investigate him to dig some dirt or use the ones that might or might not be in your hands already "Evren explained and Azarel's eyes glowed
He did not expect that Evren actually know him this much. There might be many people that can learn faster than Evren but in terms of reading and knowing what Azarel wants, he was at the top
"Great answer. Fortunately, I have a habit of storing dirt of people I have many interactions with or are working in my company" Azarel said with a chuckle
"How are we going to deal with him? Should we call him in a dark room and tie him up? Should we immediately show the blackmail to him? Or oh, should we send the blackmail to him while being anonymous to make him have sleepless nights? " Evren asks excitedly
Compared to learning boring corporate work, he would very much rather do something that is this exciting. It was not every day that one could experience having a card to use and blackmail someone
However, Evren was in a state of excitement when he suddenly turned to look at Azarel in surprise. In fact, Glynn also stared at him
"B-boss, what do you mean by you having a habit of storing a person's dirt?" Evren asks nervously and although always being ignored by the two, she still stared at Azarel intently. Waiting for an answer
"Well, it was exactly as it sounds" Azarel casually replied and Evren gulped a mouthful of saliva
"T-the do you also have dirt on me?" Evren asks nervouly and with an evil smirk, Azarel nodded his head
"Of course, do you think that you could become my husband that easily? Nah, ah, ah, that s not my way of doing things. I already have a plan and means to deal with you if you were to betray me" Azarel said
At first, he planned on only using the dirt when Evren betrayed him and joined hands with his father but now, he changes his mind. If Evren were to 'cheat' on him Azarel must have his revenge even if he has feelings for Evren
"S-Sir, how about me? Do you also have dirt on me?" Glynn asks, she was also as nervous as Evren and she received the same response
"To be the secretary that I trust, do you think I do not have a safety measure? Tsk, tsk, tsk, all of you are underestimating me. But do not worry though, I will not use the dirt as long as I was not betrayed "Azarel reassured them but that didn't help the situation at all as the two were still as uncomfortable as before
"Az, can I know what dirt you have one me?" Evren asks and Glynn seconded bit Azarel just sneered at them
"Of course not, if I say it then it wouldn't be a secret weapon anymore"
