But she heaved a sigh of relief when she saw who it was. Her eyes felt dry, so she rubbed them. She then picked the files up and waved them in the air. âDoing overtime.â
He approached her and took a seat beside her. âDo you really work so slow?â
âThis is my first job. I have no experience at all.â Queenie typed a few strings of numbers and huddled closer to the screen so she could confirm it was the right number.
Nigel stared at her in awe. Any boss would feel annoyed seeing her work so slowly. She spent a whole day just transferring these files info into the system?
Queenie turned around. âSo why did you come back?â
âPack your stuff and clock out. Leave these for Cecily. Youâre coming with me for all the appointments I have to handle.â And then he asked, âDid you have dinner already?â
âNo. Oh, I owe you a few dinners, so this oneâs on me.â She smiled and stood up, but then her calves cramped up from her sitting too long.
âGod, my legs are cramped.â She held the edges of the table and sat back down, massaging her calves.
