Our office phone rang and the secretary, Stella, answered it.
“Miss Lara, Mr. Matheson would like to have a meeting with you in his office.”
“Oh, okay. I will go up. Can you ask if I can go up in 30 minutes as I need to finish something?”
After a minute or two, Stella came back to me.
“He said it will be okay.”
“Thanks, Stella.”
“Sure, Ma’am.”
And I went through for the last time all the proposals that were submitted to me. Then I freshened up at my office powder room. I made sure I smell good inside and my hair is fresh.
I went out of my office and rode the lift. I proceeded to his office. I passed by his secretary.
“Can I see him now?”
“Yes, Ma’am. He is waiting for you.”
I knocked on the door. When I heard his voice giving me his permission, I opened the door and came in.
