The Office Assistant - III

Charles barked out a laugh, making both of his assistants jump.

"Are you fucking kidding me? Are you 11 or 21? Do you not understand the importance of setting your alarm, fucking alarm, on time for the next morning?" He chuckled. "First day of your job and you are two hours late. How the fuck are you supposed to be available for your family at all times if you cannot make it to the first day of your job!"

God. Joyce gaped at him.

Her eyes darted between him and David. What is something going on in between them? How did the matter go from showing up to the first day of the job on time to showing up for his family?

As far as she knew, Charles was perfectly capable of keeping his private and professional life separate even from her. If he could do that with her, he could definitely do that with the person he had just met.

Also, according to company policy, no employee was supposed to bring in any kind of family in conversation and less the employee had told them about it.
