Matching Pairs

"Fine, ma'am," the employee said, nodding and saluting Scarlett.

"Have you eaten yet?" asked Scarlett to her employee.

"I have, Ma'am."

Scarlett nodded, but before leaving the place. Scarlett gave a gift of a cake for her employees to eat. Of course, it makes the employees very happy and enthusiastic. They also said 'thank you' over and over again. It's a very step to have a boss who pays attention to his employees like Scarlett. And because of that, too, they have a lot of respect for Scarlett.

After the visit, Scarlett and Cassie headed to the hotel to meet with clients and have lunch together at the hotel's restaurant. "Our schedule will be busy going forward, Cassie. Get ready to be a very busy career woman."

"Ha... Ha... well, of course my salary will increase."

"Woman!" snapped Scarlett as she walked. While Cassie just laughed amusedly.

"You're also a woman," Cassie retorted, not to be outdone, because the two of them are indeed very independent women, so they don't think much about men who have a lot of money. 

"Forget it... we have to rush to that hotel. After all, they're very important clients."

Scarlett walked over quickly while Cassie grumbled incoherently. She was annoyed when her joke was not replied to by Scarlett at all. The woman is so serious when it comes to work. And only certain moments allow him to throw jokes.

"Gosh, that kid!" Cassie slightly ran over to get to Scarlett.

"Looks like you have to learn to walk casually, Scarlett," Cassie said when she got to Scarlett's car.

"Aren't you the one who should learn to walk fast?" snapped Scarlett impatiently. She does like to annoy that woman, but only at a certain time.

Cassie raised her eyebrows. "It seems that since returning from Italy, her attitude has changed a little. Is it because Dominic's machismo changed you?"

Cassie was always just teasing Scarlett. Until the woman's face was completely red, holding back the embarrassment. Of course, embarrassed, because Scarlett always imagined the kiss they did in the car when they were drunk at that time. Although vaguely, Scarlett felt that her first kiss had been taken away by Dominic.

 [It could be crazy if I always imagined that.]

Scarlett was indifferent to the sentence that popped out of Cassie's mouth. Don't want to respond, because once it's reciprocated. Cassie would constantly tease her and it would make Scarlett even more annoyed and her face would be redder than a braised crab.

"Never mind. Prepare today's discussion agenda. You brought the file, right?" 

"Of course, I'm not like you who sometimes forget it."

"Yes... that's why I still keep you."

Scarlett's remarks were so scornful. But Cassie didn't mind it, because she was used to hearing the squealing lines from Scarlett. 

A few minutes away, they finally arrived at a hotel they were going to. Scarlett and Cassie rushed to break into the hotel restaurant meeting with her client today. 

***

"Good afternoon," Scarlett greeted the client, who looked like she was waiting.

The client smiled and stood up to welcome Scarlett and Cassie's arrival. They both appeared to shake hands as a sign of respect.

"I'm sorry to wait a long time, sir," Scarlett said.

"Ah no, take it easy. I also just arrived," the client retorted kindly.

Usually, they would get angry when Scarlett arrived late. However, it seems that this client of his who values Scarlett very much, even always revealing a friendly look on his face.

"Thank you, sir."

Scarlett pulled a chair next to her, then sat down. Likewise, with Cassie, who followed Scarlett's movements. The two of them began to talk about the cooperation agreement between the two parties. There appeared to be negotiations during the discussion process. However, Cassie straightforwardly explained the content of the cooperation between the two parties. Until Scarlett's company was able to make clients interested in working with her frozen food company.

Originally, Scarlett's company had experienced ups and downs. They were about to go out of business, because the profit made was not enough in the presentation of production materials. At that time, many people were still taboo with frozen packaged food being processed. They are only interested in ready-to-eat packaged food without having to be processed again.

Until there came a time when the food produced by Scarlett's company increased. 

The efforts made in offering and introducing production results to the community have made rapid progress. And now, both Scarlett and Cassie are reaping the fruits they've sown.

Any company will not refuse to cooperate with Scarlett, and there are even some who blatantly invite Scarlett-owned companies to cooperate.

"I agree to sign a cooperation agreement with the company, you."

Scarlett smiled, as did Cassie. They both got up and paid tribute to their clients. 

"It's nice to cooperate with you, sir."

Scarlett shook the client's hand and smiled warmly. Then, the client said goodbye to leave the place, because there were other important matters.

"We did it!" said Cassie enthusiastically. She also didn't realize that his remarks could make people around him turn to the woman.

"Huss... pay attention to your surroundings," Scarlett reprimanded, feeling bad.

Scarlett scratched at the nape that didn't itch. She felt dead fleas when the guests started to surprise her.

"Keep an attitude, okay?"

"Ready, Mrs. Boss."

Cassie saluted Scarlett as if she was on a military exercise.

"Don't be like that, Cassie. We friend, there is no need to act like my assistant."

"I am indeed your assistant, Scarlett."

Scarlett patted her forehead lightly. She was really speechless again.

"What do you want to eat? I'm treating," Scarlett transferred.

"No, Scarlett. I just want to go back to the office. There are things I need to solve."

Once she behaved that way, usually Cassie would be very enthusiastic when treated by Scarlett.

"Yes, it has, but we have to buy some food for the employees. Let's just say that this is a day of celebration regarding our cooperation with those foreign companies."

Once she behaved that way, usually Cassie would be very enthusiastic when treated by Scarlett.

"Yes, it has, but we have to buy some food for the employees. Let's just say that this is a day of celebration regarding our cooperation with those foreign companies."

Cassie looked so enthusiastic. She also took Scarlet's arm to quickly head out of the hotel. They want to buy cakes for the celebration of the cooperation contract. However, when they were about to leave, they met Dominic, who happened to be seeing a client.

Dominic was also aware of Scarlett's presence. He also greeted Scarlett and Cassie at the same time. Scarlett smiled clumsily as Dominic got up and accidentally put her arms around Scarlett's hips intimately. While Cassie just smiled happily at the sight of the two.

"Boy, Dominic. You are not wrong about choosing a wife. She was so so beautiful," praised one of Dominic's co-workers.

"Of course, she's my wife and should always look beautiful." Dominic kissed Scarlett intimately on the cheek.
