I was shocked by his response. I didn't expect him to say such a thing. How could he say it was really a good morning when I would not be there? Due to this, I decided to stop him from leaving.
"Wait a minute. Good morning? Boss, I won't be around for some weeks and you are happy? Don't you think that this is too strict?" I asked.
"If it is not a good morning, then is it a bad one? Secretary Mira, it's not that you're not coming back, you're still coming back, then, why will this morning not be good?" He sounded like a fool as he asked.
"Please tell me the truth now. You are trying to sack me right?"
"What? I mean why will I sack you? You seem to have gotten the wrong idea. I am sending there because I think you will do well. Sometimes, shouldn't you at least be away from me? You might be wondering if I still like you. Yes, I like you and I don't want to lose you. So, it is more advisable for you to listen to me as I can't do anything that can hurt you regardless of the case. " He said. I was moved by his statement but pretended not to be. It was clear to me that he still liked me and there was no other woman. Yuna was just Dave's ex girlfriend's friend.
"Umm, that's quite a good thing to hear. " I said.
"What? You mean liking you?" He asked. My heart skipped a beat.
" No. The fact that you will not sack me. It is a good thing to hear. But, you can't change your mind. " I warned.
"Okay. Then, I'll get going. " He said as he left. I watched him as he left. It was really a relief.

Sooner that day, I went to Hart's office to inform him that I was going. "Then, I will get going sir. " I said hoping to get a change of mind from him. But no to avail.
"That is good. Go on. " He replied without worrying so much about me. "Does he still like me? Have he gotten over me? There's no way he would let me go just like that if he doesn't. What did I do that made him get over me?" I thought.
"Don't get the wrong idea, secretary Mesa. " He said. "Well, I want you to clear the misunderstanding once and for all. When I'm gone, who's going to be the acting secretary?" I asked.
"Mrs Light. " He replied. It was just like what Mike said. For the first time, I believed he had a very accurate hunch.
"Oh! That is great then. Good day sir. " I said as I left his office. I didn't know what Hart was thinking but I focused on what I was asked to do. If the Miami book company went down, our company will be very happy. I wore a black suit designed for men only, a black nose mask and white shirt. I declared myself one of the security team of the company. Normally, I believed that the security team knew most of the activities going on in a company. So, I knew it would be great being among their security team. As expected, I was asked to stand throughout the whole day. I could not believe I was sacrificing my sweat for a common book company. Closely two pm, a man whose position was unknown to me came and told us all that s very important guest would be coming. I wondered who the guest would be, but could not find any clue. As soon as the guest arrived, we bowed down to welcome her into the company. She was very light skinned with an average height. But, she looked like someone in her forties. Her gold jewellery made me understand that she was very rich. According to my own estimate, the jewelry would worth up to five hundred million dollars. I was speechless as I saw her bag. It clearly shown that it was imported. She wore a blue short gown which shown some skin. I was amazed with what I saw. Indeed, the rich are called the rich but what would happen if we call the poor poor? The poor will get upset even though it is true that he is indeed the poor.

I made some research about the lady but found out that she was an author. Her name was Blessing Weiner. Her networth was up to three hundred billion dollars. That was how rich she was. I decided to make some research on what she was doing there but I could not find any. No one agreed to tell me and I could not find anything. I told my other team members about it. They said they would look into it. I completely forgot about Hart. I didn't worry about him that much. I only focused on what I was planning to do. I knew Hart would miss me and would never find a secretary like me. This has because no matter how hard anyone tried, they would never know Hart's weakness and strength. I was the only one who knew it. And that was what kept me beside him till date. I really wanted to meet Mia Jane but I could not meet her. I was told that common security men could not cross their boundary not to talk of meeting their CEO. But, if the real CEO was dead, who paid the employees' salaries? Who was the one who planned it all? Why Mia Jane? Why were there doing all those? What exactly happened? What was the truth behind it all? Those were the questions I could not answer. But, I made up my mind to do all what it takes to get to the root of the matter. Regardless the outcome, I made up my mind to find out every single thing that had happened.
