A Billionaire's Lost Love novel Chapter 8

As for the matter of Minju, I advised her to call someone from the lower floors to pick up their documents. Of course, she didn't want to and complained that she had a lot of work to do. So, I called in for her and thankfully, someone from each floor responded.

To be completely honest, Minju wasn't fully occupied with her work. Most of the time, she would gossip with her friends. And even though I looked at them and waited for them to return to work, they would ignore me and acted as if they had nothing better to do than gossip.

Moments later, Mr. Kim arrived and everybody immediately went on their best behavior. I watched him enter and as he approached me, he wasn't amused.

I quickly stood and bowed, "Mr. Kim."

"Miss Ryuk," he started with a stern voice as he reached me. "I heard from a couple of staff members that they saw you running all around the company. What were you doing, away from your desk this morning? It's the busiest time of the day," he continued.

I froze. I stole glances from the whole floor and they were all laughing at me, especially Minju. As for Soyoung, I could tell that she was holding back her tongue. And I prayed that she wouldn't say anything because I didn't want to cause trouble for her.

Suddenly, Minju stood from her chair and said, "Oh, Mr. Kim, your new secretary is very unreliable. She's always away from her desk and she's always on her phone. I tried to stop her but she didn't listen to me." She added, "I was going to try and take over her job. But that's against our rules. She's not fit for her job."

I was about to say something when Mr. Kim turned to her and remarked, "And you're not supposed to meddle into things that aren't of your business, Miss Chun."

Minju rolled her eyes as she sat back down. She replied, "I was only trying to help. The new employee you hired isn't worthy to be a secretary."

Mr. Kim chuckled and spatted, "I wasn't asking for your help. And just because your father is a partner of this company, you'll expect special treatment. Also, before you judge someone to be unfitting for their roles, focus on your job. The lower floors are complaining about certain papers not being delivered on time."

He added, "Our boss has asked me to curate a list for those he will let go. Would you like to be the example for everybody here?"

Minju scoffed and returned to work with a scowl on her face.

"Miss Ryuk, please come with me," he turned to me before he entered the boss' office.

With my tablet in hand, I sat on the chair across from him. For a while, he didn't say anything. He checked and grabbed a few papers from the drawers. As well as read a few papers.
