"Joren!!"

Ness, Monstein, and Kidrith would gather around him upon his arrival.

"I miss you," Kidrith whispered while she buried her face into his back. It\'s been a week since she hasn\'t seen him. That\'s longer than how long they\'ve been together.

Joren held her hand while patting Ness\' head, who hugged him in front.

"Am I the only one missing?" he asked.

Jack and Virena looked at each other before nodding.

"Alright, let\'s go!"

Joren raised his fist, not caring about getting too much attention in public.

"Wait!"

Jack stopped him.

"Oh, Sir Jack, your face seemed fine now."

"Yes, umm, but before we go, can you-"

"Chief!"

Cutting off Jack\'s request, a voice took everyone\'s attention. When they looked at the source, they saw a pretty lady with glasses running towards them. For the girls, it was hard to look at her with her ginormous breasts relentlessly bouncing as she ran. For the boys…

"Jessie, what are you doing?" Joren asked once the lady arrived, "Don\'t you have work to do?"

"Chief!" ignoring his question, Jessie forced out a question of her own between huffs, "is it true… you\'re quitting?"

"How did you know?"

"I saw your resignation paper. But I couldn\'t believe it!" Jessie shouted.

"Wait, first of all, who are you?"

Kidrith cautiously stood between the lady and Joren.

…

Jack: [Wait, you have a story too? And, it\'s in first-person.]

It was just an ordinary day. My desk is just filled with papers that need to be done. It was painfully uneventful.

Virena: [...]

The day only became a little interesting when a rumor began spreading out. They say a beautiful woman wearing a maid outfit wanted a job.

Jack: [Hey, isn\'t that-]

Kidrith: [No]

It was funny how they were so desperate for entertainment that they created a comical rumor.

Jack: [But-]

Kidrith: [No]

Then, out of nowhere, our department head introduced a new worker. His name is Joren Vierei. At one look, you know that he\'s a good-for-nothing thug who only got accepted because of luck and intimidation.

He doesn\'t know a thing in the office, but since everyone was scared of him, they didn\'t give him any job. The senior who was supposed to guide him passed it onto me since I\'m a newbie who just entered the company six months ago.

I couldn\'t decline.

So, I answered many of his questions, and he was surprisingly quick to learn. Then, the next day, he was no longer there at our department. We all thought that he quit or was fired immediately for some reason we aren\'t surprised about. Though, I thought it was a shame for a talent like him to disappear. At the same time, I was called to the head office.

Arriving there, instead of the department head sitting behind the desk, it was a new worker, Joren Vierei. I was stunned at first, thinking that he must\'ve barged in and sat on the chair without permission. I tried to reprimand him.

"Joren, this is unacceptable. If you were caught, I don\'t even know the punishment for you."

"Miss Jessie, don\'t worry, this is my desk from now on."

"Huh? What are you saying? If you don\'t stop joking, I\'m sorry, but I\'ll have to report you. I will receive a penalty as well if I let you on your own."

The new worker sighed as if bothered. Thinking that my words were taking effect, I waited for him to stand up from the chair.

"My ID would take a while, so I don\'t have any proof except for this contract." taking a paper out of his drawer, he slid it towards me.

Curious, I read the paper, and it\'s a notice that says Joren will replace the department head.

"Didn\'t you read a memorandum of this posted at the notice board?"

I wasn\'t able to answer since I skimmed through the paper to see, in the end, there\'s the company\'s signature. I don\'t know if this was forged or not. I was still skeptical. I learned that Joren is not bad, so what would he get by forging this paper? But still, how can a new worker who was just learning yesterday is now our department head.

While I was stunned, he continued.

"I called you here to ask you if you want a promotion?"

"A what?"

A promotion. Something that almost all workers would desire. Unless there\'s a special circumstance, there is no way I wouldn\'t want a promotion.

"Yesterday, you\'re the only one who helped me through the office. I feel like I owe you. Why don\'t you continue guiding me and become my secretary?"

Virena: [I\'m sure it\'s also because she has huge knocke-]

Joren: [Ehem! She\'s very hardworking.]

Me, a secretary? I can\'t wrap my head around the situation. The junior that I was just guiding yesterday was now talking about promoting me and making me his secretary.

"Uhm, if this is true, then yes, please!"

I don\'t know why I was compelled to believe him. Maybe it was because of the unwavering confidence he had behind his words.

Once it was confirmed that the new worker had become the department head, shock spread throughout the company.

However, it did not stop there.

In a matter of days, our company was undertaking massive changes until our talented department head became a member of the executive board, the most influential group in the company, on the fourth day.

I only learned of his activities due to the nature of my job. Instead of doing manual work, Joren was actively proposing projects one after another. All of them were super risky.

These projects will only work if other affiliated companies put themselves at a disadvantage in these partnerships. But if we succeed, our company will step up.

Surprisingly, all of his proposals were accepted.

I was joyous as his success meant mine too. Even I, the one beside him, doesn\'t know what magic he was putting on his work, but, ever since he arrived, our company has become the largest in the city.

Again, in a matter of days!

However, not everything could be credited to him. Although strange, our rival companies would enter different crises. Nobody knows why but we are all happy the company we\'re working for is rising on the top.

That would give hope that even without promotion, their salaries would increase.

On the fifth day, there was a great lay-off. The company wants to invest in high-skilled personnel so that the high pay would be appropriate. I was safe since Joren just became CEO for some reasons I don\'t understand.

It\'s not even a week yet. The company seemed so different. But on the seventh day, I didn\'t see him at his office as usual. Instead, I learned that he submitted his resignation letter.

…

"That brings us to this moment." Jessie finished her story, "Chief, why would you resign. You could make this company a multi-billion company! You could be standing on top of the world by the end of the year and would be the richest man alive after five years!"

She couldn\'t believe someone would waste such an opportunity, making her unable to restrain her voice.

"Sorry, but money\'s not everything to me." Joren shook his head, "I was only stopping by, but we will see each other again soon." he then handed a business card to her.

Seeing this, tears came out of Jessie\'s eyes.

"I\'m the one who made these cards."

"Contact me whenever you want to." Joren made a calling hand gesture.

After some pause, Jessie nodded and accepted that a talented man like Joren shouldn\'t be bound by their small company.

"Don\'t run back. Make your new CEO drive you back."

He pointed at the car that drove him there.

"Tell him he got his position back."

"Yes, Chief!" Jessie restrained herself from crying before running off to the car.

Seeing this, Kidrith confirmed something. Before the car drove off, she walked there and knocked on the car window. It soon rolled down, and the man who once tried to sexually harass Kidrith showed himself.

He was entranced by Kidrith\'s beauty again but noticing Joren\'s stare, he lowered his head.

Kidrith then took out a car key from her pouch and returned it to the man.

"Thank you for the car. I learned how to drive because of it." she then pointed at the parked car.

"M-my car!"

He shouted not in happiness but in shock since it was filled the car was full of dents and scratches as if it was driven down the moutain.

"It was a lovely car." Kidrith smiled to which the man sadly nodded.

"Yes, it was."

Virena saw the car too and reacted, "Ah, that car…"

"What about it?" asked Jack.

"When I took Monstein and was about to bring him back, I didn\'t notice that a gargoyle was following me. If stopped to fight, the sun would rise soon and I would be to weak to bring Monstein hope as he needs immediate care. However, when the gargoyle was about to reach us, a car swerved and hit it."

When Kidrith returned to the group, Virena thanked her.

"So, it was you, Ms. Kidrith. If you didn\'t crash into that gargoyle, the sun would\'ve gotten me."

"... ah, it\'s nothing."

Kidrith couldn\'t tell that the gargoyle wasn\'t the first thing she hit on the road while learning how to drive.
