Chapter 22: She Is the First One


    Macy stops walking, turns around and finds Ynda Sue stands behind her. Ynda is holding a cup in


    her hand, as if she had just been to the tearoom.


    “Secretary Sue, now I need to go downstairs to deal with some necessary things. I will be back soon."


    she answers with a faint smile.


    Ynda raises her eyebrows, "Official or private?"


    Clenching tight the money in her hand, Macy hesitates for a moment but still answered truthfully,


    "Private affairs."


    "Geez." Ynda utters a snortingugh, "you know that the Penn’s doesn''t need idlers, don’t you? If


    you always handle these personal matters during working hours, there will be no need, I think, for the


    Ynda really doesn''t mince her words. Just then the elevator cabin arrives by coincidence, and she


    barricades the door suddenly, looking coldly at Macy, "Go back!"


    Without saying anything, Macy looks away, with a frown on her face. Anyway, what Ynda said is


    reasonable as well.


    As Macy walks towards her office, suddenly, she feels something burns her shank. Macy turns and


    finds some hot tea steaming is on the floor behind her.


    "Sorry, I just identally sprinkled the water." Ynda apologizes immediately, but it’s not hard to


    notice a feeling of satisfaction in her eyes.


    Macy grits her teeth secretly, pretending to be calm and smiling at Ynda, "That’s all right."


    Ynda at once says unkindly, "Great! Then you’d better mop the floor now."


    Stunned, Macy stares back at Ynda, "Don’t we have cleaners in thepany?"


    "This floor is one of the most important areas of ourpany; therefore, the cleaner is not allowed to


    here to report vital information to Mr. Penn tumble over?" Ynda flicks her hair, "By the way, the mop


    is in the tearoom."


    Macy is reduced to silence.


    Having her, a secretary of the boss, mop the floor, Ynda does show no respect. However,


    considering that Ynda is her senior, if she fails to bear with such insults now, what else can she do in


    the future?


    Macy smoothly takes theforts from that fact and replies lightly, "Secretary Sue, you could leave if


    you are busy now. I''ll take care of everything."


    Without hesitation, Macy goes straight to the tearoom and then walks out with a sponge mop.


    She makes a ponytail hastily, rolls up her sleeves, and starts to mop the floor earnestly.


    Ynda looks a little surprised. She didn’t expect that the daughter of the Downey family is so gentle


    that she just acted in obedience to these unreasonable demands.


    Nearby, Yusef is always standing in the doorway of the president''s office and witnessing this scene.


    The girl bows her head, mops the floor earnestly, and bends down, revealing her neck which is as


    smooth as jade...


    Feeling his heart tighten, Yusef’s gaze can’t help being more intense.


    In fact, he was here from the beginning that Ynda put her in a terrible quandary, but he didn’t expect


    her to be so patient, either.


    Yusef breaks the silence by cleaning his throat suddenly. Ynda hastens to look back; as she sees


    Yusef standing at the door, there is the panic rising in her eyes.


    "Mr. Penn..."


    She nces at Macy, who is still mopping the floor, and hurriedly walks towards Yusef, "I am just..."


    Yusef racks her brains to consider some possible answers. After all, there is no reason for a secretary


    to do this kind of rough work at the Penn’s. Her motives are too obvious to be ignored, anyway.


    Yusef smiles and makes up an excuse for her, "Training new employees?"


    She immediately responses, “Yes, training new employees!"


    Presently Macy hears the sound of that man, but she doesn''t raise her head, continuing to mop the


    floor. Not only does she clean the ce where the water had just been sprinkled, but she also shines


    all areas nearby.

    Realizing that Macy remains unmoved by their conversation, somehow, Yusef gets aplicated


    feeling. He grabs a tie on the hanger and hands it to Ynda.


    "Do me a favor, please."


    Ynda holds the tie tteringly and even cannot hide her smile. Although she has worked in the


    Penn’s for several years, she never has such an opportunity to get close to him.


    "For the negotiation in an hour, did you call the secretary of SkyTrium''s boss to confirm?"


    Ynda nervously helps him tie while whispering, "Yes, I just confirmed that the address is at 405,


    Block B, Starlight Building."


    "Huh." Yusef looks at Macy. It happens that she finishes mopping the floor and stares back to him.


    From Macy’s point of view, Ynda slightly raises her head, being pretty close to that man as if there is


    a certain chemistry between them.


    Confused, she looks at the mop in her hand, and walks directly to the tearoom.


    By the time she returns from the tearoom, Ynda has already put on his tie.


    "I’m done, Mr. Penn."


    Ynda couldn''t help hiding the excitement. In fact, Yusef asked her to learn how to tie when she just


    came to work for the Penn’s, but in the past two years, he never let her tie for him once. Even though


    nowadays she isn''t very skillful at it anymore, the final result still makes her satisfactory.


    Yusef walks to the office where a mirror is on the bookcase near the door, which can clearly reflect his


    upper body.


    He nces at the mirror, turns around, and then eyes Ynda coldly, "It isn’t straight, go back and


    practice tying the necktie a hundred times."


    Looking this tie up and down, Ynda ''s smiling face stiffened.


    It’s just a little crooked...


    Yusef raises his eyebrows, "Any objection?"


    "No, I''ll do what you required..."


    Ynda’s mood turns upside down within the past few minutes. Trying to avoid embarrassment, she


    walks back to her office in confusion.


    As Macy is still hesitating whether she should go back as well or not, she inadvertently sees Yusef


    staring at her.


    The man unhesitatingly loosens the tie around his necks, "Come here."


    Macy walks towards him. As soon as she entered his office, Yusef, however, shuts the door suddenly.


    Looking at the tie in the man''s hand, Macy takes it from him with an involuntary gasp.


    "Let me do it."


    Yusef doesn’t refuse this petition, staring down at her.


    Macy stands on tiptoe so that she can wrap the tie around the man''s neck, while the breath blowing on


    her forehead is pretty hot.


    After knotting his tie skillfully, she gently adjusts it on both sides.


    In those far off days her mother asked a professional etiquette tutor to instruct her all manners about


    social propriety and some clothing tips. Among them, tying is one of the most basic things, so, to be


    frank, she is really good at it.


    As Macy is taking thest step, she suddenly feels her waist being tightened, and the whole body falls


    upon the man.


    She looks up to him in panic. "Why didn''t you ask me for help when you were bullied?" He asks.


    Macy freezes for a moment, and then finishes thest step of tying, "I don''t wanna others to know our


    rtionship."


    Feelingplicated, Yusef wrinkles his eyebrows.


    The women who strive to get involved in his life on their own initiative are countless, but for the


    women who just want to hide their rtionship…She is the first one, he thinks.
