Positive Side

Mariela's POV

"Ella?" A woman in her late forties asked after she got inside Archer's office, she looked so friendly and accommodating, and her smile was contagious that I was smiling back at her as I stood up from the sofa. And I could tell right away that she was Archer's secretary.

"Good morning, yes, I am Mariela, but my friends call me Ella," I responded as I offered her my hand.

"My name is Cora, and I am your fiance's secretary; welcome to Nagazville city, Ms. Ella, and I am happy to be at your service." She responded as she took my hand, and we shook hands and gave each other warm smiles.

"Thank you, Cora," I responded.

"Don't mention it, Ms.Ella," she responded.

"You can call me Ella, Cora," I said, and she shook her head.
