It's Not Enough

Edith sat on the sofa as she waited for Neil to handle a few more documents before they can head back together. 

A knock came at the door and a female in suit and skirt walked in after Neil permitted to enter. Her short hair was styled neatly and she was wearing purple rimmed glasses. In her hand was a small tray with a small teapot and teacups arranged nicely. The woman took a glance at Edith and stood straight beside the door.

"President Mo, the tea you asked."

Neil looked up and gestured towards the sofa set. "Just place them on the table."

The woman walked over to the table and cast another glance at Edith as she placed the tray down. When she stood up again, President Mo was already standing beside the sofa. 

"Edith, this is Secretary An Daisy. If you need anything and cannot find me or Assistant Shawn, you can look for Secretary An," Neil said. "Secretary An, this is Edith Qian, my girlfriend."
