Office Romance with a Werewolf - Chapter 122

“Be my secretary instead.” Lilian Serra, the company owner, held out her hand toward Nida and smiled kindly at her.

“S-secretary of an owner?” She asked again as she could not believe what she was hearing.

“Hmm? How did you know that I was the owner?” Lilian asked, unaware that she had revealed it herself.

“You told me, ma’am, just a while ago.”

“Oh my. I didn’t even realize it. You really listened to my story.” She laughed loudly and got up from her seat.

“Please go to the real HR representative and tell her that I hired you as my secretary. She will know what to do. I would love to talk to you more, but I cannot miss my schedule.”

Nida was amazed that even though she is the owner, she respects others’ time as she doesn’t want to make the other applicant wait a little longer.

“T-then thank you maam for accepting me. I will make sure I will do my very best as your secretary. ” She enthusiastically stated

“Oh, I love your energy.” She shakes hands with the owner, then leaves the room.

After that, she met with the HR representative and they talked about when she was going to start, what the requirements were before getting in, and, of course, they talked about Nida’s pay, which made Nida almost cry out of joy from learning how much the company was going to pay her.

“CTC is nothing to LARO!” she shouted internally.

Laro, is the name of the new company she will be working at and will be having her fresh start. It’s a toy company that manufactures and distributes collectibles and luxurious toys.

“CTC and LARO are both big companies, but I guess LARO takes care of their employees better!” she exclaimed, as she was excited about her new job.

She happily went down the building and looked for Ranz, who was waiting for her at the café.

“Hey, Ranz.” She gently nudged his shoulder because he was sleeping, and yet he had still not woken up from Nida’s gentle approach.

“Ah, I apologized on his behalf.” Nida apologized after she saw the manager of the café was looking at her from a distance.

“You don’t have to apologize, miss. Your boyfriend caught a lot of customers’ attention, so they bought coffee to watch him sleep. You’re so lucky, miss, to have an extremely handsome boyfriend!” The manager of the café said, while squealing with the other customers and admiring Ranz’s face.

Nida was speechless from the attention Randell was gathering that she had just pinched Ranz’s armpit.

“AAAAAAAAhhh!” he screamed as he rubbed his armpit, which was in pain from Nida’s pinch.

“Let’s go.” Ranz glared at Nida before she walked out of the café.

Ranz apologized first to the people inside the café, then ran after Nida.

“Hey, Hey, what happened? Did you fail again?” Ranz asked worriedly because Nida was acting grumpy again.

Nida didn’t respond and just walked straight ahead. She didn’t even look at Ranz.

“Hey! Come here!” Ranz pulled Nida’s arms to hug her to comfort her, but he was shocked by Nida’s expression. He was expecting her to look gloomy and crying, but instead she was smiling while tears were in her eyes.

“Get a hold of yourself!” Ranz shook Nida’s shoulder, thinking the stress had made her crazy.

“Hey Ranz, I was hired on the spot.” Nida finally tells the news, but this time it was Ranz who was frozen.

“Hey! What’s with that reaction? I said I was accepted! ” Nida exclaimed, she raised both her arms in joy and excitement.

“Really?”

“Really?”

“Congratulation!” Ranz hugged her and spun her round in overjoy.

“They will even pay me higher than CTC has offered!” she said while still in Ranz’s arms.

“How should we celebrate this?” Ranz asked excitedly.

“Of course, let’s have a drink!” Nida jumped off into Ranz’s arms and shook her body from excitement.

“Okay, let’s have fun today! ”

….

….

….

at CTC office…

“Welcome back to the Safety Department! We miss you, sir Randell! ”

The people at the safety department warmly welcome him back. Wendell returned to his previous department because it was the department that suited Randell well.

Randell doesn’t have any reason anymore to stay at the logistic department now that Nida is gone. But for him, nothing changes because Nida is not his coworker anymore.

They had a little party inside the office, and after an hour, they were back to work again, as if nothing special had happened.

“Sir Randell, the President was calling for you. He is in the office now. ”

“Okay, thanks. I’ll be there.” He smiled at Wendell’s secretary, who personally looked for him even though she could just call him on the phone.

“Did Sir Wendell make you come here personally?” He asked while they were waiting for the elevator to reach the floor where Wendell’s office is located.

“Yes, sir.” Wendell’s secretary replied timidly.

Before, Randell didn’t notice that Wendell’s secretary was strong because she usually acted timid and shy in front of him, but now that he was weaker, he noticed that the secretary was actually a lot stronger than other wolves.

Randell stood firm and made sure he still looked intimidating as before to make sure that his weak state would not be caught.

“Thanks.” He replied curtly to the secretary after she opened the door for Randell. He then walked inside Wendell’s office, where the president of CTC was leisurely puffing up smoke.

“Why do you call me?” he asked, but Wendell just stared at him while still smoking.

Randell makes sure that he won’t be intimidated and stares back at the leader of the wolves.

“Randell, are you really siding with that priestess?” Wendell seriously asked.

“What about it? She saves us from our enemies. What more do you expect for her?” Randell was relieved that Wendell seemed to have no idea that he had lost his power.

“I am asking just to make sure that you’re still on the wolves’ side. You know, we can not trust anyone with divine powers. They are fated to purge us. ” The usually mischievous wolves are acting serious and intimidating today. Randell, who doesn’t entirely know Wendell’s personality, becomes very cautious about this meeting.

Ranz and Wendell are close to one another, while Randell doesn’t entirely know Wendell’s personality yet.

“Anyway, is Ranz not back yet? I prefer working with him. To be honest, I don’t think I can trust you with some of our business. You’re like a newcomer to our pack. ”

Randell understood what Wendell was talking about. He is basically a stranger to Wendell. Ranz was the one he worked with for a decade. He heard they were working together to reform the pack. That is why, although Wendell is acting very mischievous, Randell knows that Wendell would never do things that would put the pack in danger.

“He occasionally returns.” he lied. He needs to ask Ranz first whether he wants Wendell to know that Ranz already has a body.

“He can comeback now?” Wendell jolted up and walked close to Randell.

“Occasionally,” he repeated.

Wendell heaved a long sigh and waved his hand to shoo Randell out of his office.

“Tell Ranz to call me whenever he is out. You may now go.”

Randell just fixes his collar and leaves the office without saying anything more.

“What’s wrong with him?” Randell asked himself. Wendell was acting weird, or more likely, he was acting as if he had a problem that needed Ranz’s help.

After visiting the president’s office, the rest of the working hours went by swiftly, and it was finally time for Randell to go home. He only checked his phone after he timed out. That’s the only time he read the pile of messages Nida and Ranz sent to him.

“S-she passed?” His lips automatically twitched from the good news.

“I need to buy a cake!” He excitedly drove his car to a cake shop and looked for the best matcha cake he could find.

“This looks disgusting.” He commented after seeing the green-colored cake.

“There are other cakes here, sir, to choose if this one looks disgusting to you.” The cake shop owner heard him and got offended by his comment, but she remained smiling even though the cake shop owner’s eyebrow was twitching.

“Oh, no! No, I’m sorry. For what I said, I need to buy this green tea cake. Nida loves it very much.” Randell panicked because the owner was taking away the cake. Matcha cake is actually rare to find, which is why there is no other shop to look for.

“Nida? You’re gifting this to her? Oh! She will really love this!” The owner’s mood suddenly changed upon hearing Nida’s name.

“Do you know her, ma’am?”

“She used to work here. That matcha cake is one of her original recipes. ”

“Really?” Randell smiled brightly after hearing something new about Nida.

“So she can bake too?”

Randell is now very excited about going home to see Nida.

He left the cake shop with a smile and reached the apartment in no time.

“Hmm? Are they not home yet?” he wondered, because the house was dark.

He opened the door with the spare key that Nida had given him.

Thud!

He dropped the cake he was holding and stared at Nida and Ranz lying in the dark living room.

“Why are you two naked?”
