029 Switched

Elsa and Doren both looked at each other in horror.

Didn't comment much knowing it was pointless. Elsa lightly tapped Aimee's shoulder.

"Cheer up, Aimee. You can do it! And, hold on!"

Aimee was getting weaker.

Until made Doren could not bear to see it.

"Ask me anything if something is difficult and you don't understand. I'll try my best to help you."

Aimee moved quickly to touch Doren's hand.

"You are the best and so is our boss!"

Aimee then looked at the pile of files.

"But, looks like I'll be asking a lot of questions!"

Aimee still showed her disbelief.

Planned to come to Harry's office room. However, Aimee immediately realized if she didn't have any qualifications to allow her to protest against the CEO.

It was no secret, that Aimee had made a lot of mess since she worked.

From small things to big things. Aimee once arranged the schedule for Alfin's meeting with investors. Twice wrongly noted the meeting time. Had also messed up a meeting with a client by wrongly bringing a presentation report.

Several times violated office rules by her error. Aimee had also accidentally deleted important office data.

Whoa...

Everything was not right and went according to her wishes.

Every time Aimee did something in earnest. There was always a problem.

Therefore, in the important Deluxe Project. Nothing terrible will happen, right?

Anxious and did not want to consider the future.

A message came into Aimee's cell phone.

It made her frown and stare at her phone screen for a long time.

A text from Zack.

Opened and read the message lazily. Aimee didn't know what Zack wanted. However, she suddenly remembered what she said last night to Zack.

"Omo! I've already met him. But I don't remember anything about last night. And Zack also looks normal. Then now, does Zack want to talk about it after remembering?"

Muttered softly and invited another confusion from Doren who was working beside Aimee's desk.

Doren glanced at Aimee.

"What is wrong? Did you talk to me about something?" asked Doren who had just started to work. But, Doren seemed to hear Aimee whisper to her.

Aimee shook her head.

"Err, no. I'm talking to myself. I mean, reading the report."

Doren then went back to work. Aimee used this opportunity to read Zack's message.

[ "I forgot to mention it earlier when we met. I can only tell you. If I can't help you much out with this project. I had talked to your boss but he hasn't changed his mind at all." ]

Aimee finally understood what Zack's purpose was to come to her office and talk to Alfin one-on-one.

Thought for a moment. Aimee decided to reply to Zack's message. Although at first, she was hesitant to reply or not because she still remembered what happened last night.

Aimee decided to act mature.

Typed a few sentences. Then sent it. Aimee was sure the message she sent was polite enough.

[ "Okay. Thank you. And I understand. Then about last night, please forget everything and pretend it never happened. ]

There was no reply from Zack that Aimee received. Aimee was also not looking forward to it because Aimee was already busy taking care of new documents on her desk.

Overtime was a natural thing for Aimee to do that day.

It was already 8 pm. Aimee was still struggling with all the files and had seen Alfin come home before office hours.

She didn't feel surprised and stopped him because it was normal for Alfin to act like that. Because it went awry, it was Aimee who would be lectured at length if she interfered.

The reported issue was not over yet. So how could Aimee still try to meddle in other people's business?

For several days this kind of incident kept repeating itself.

Came home late at night and returned to her apartment feeling very tired. Aimee didn't know how long she would last.

She was lying weakly on the bed and looking around. Aimee had a flat expression.

It would be a lie if she didn't feel bored and tired with her very busy but also lonely routine.

Aimee was doing everything alone and sometimes being a loner.

She accidentally reminisced about her youth either. Became a woman who was admired for her beauty. Aimee was included in one of the many beautiful women while still in school. Even though, it was impossible to be a winner in the most beautiful girl candidate, indeed.

But Aimee's appearance was not as chaotic as when Aimee was growing up.

She dated Zack for the first time when she was 19 years old and had just entered college. Zack at that time treated Aimee very special.

Then made Aimee the luckiest woman because Zack always gave serious attention to Aimee.

Starting an encounter from accidental to intentional. They first started dating, Zack was very funny. Nervous like someone who had never dated and flustered a few times because of Aimee's stares.

The luck among Zack's past and the current Aimee seemed to be switched.

The once unpopular Zack. Now he became very popular. And his fate in the past was very ordinary. But now it was to be awesome.

Aimee reached for her phone again and read the message from Zack that she still had.

Read it a few times and felt like crying. Aimee muttered, disappointed.

She felt that the world was unfair. Aimee slowly closed her eyes. Tried to sleep as comfortably as possible to gather energy.

"I need to sleep early. Because tomorrow is decisive. I have to improve my appearance and I can't mess with my work anymore."

Spoke slowly until she snored. Aimee who was exhausted finally fell asleep.

Ready to welcome tomorrow with great enthusiasm.

Aimee woke up an hour early.

Prepared the most appropriate clothes and make-up. Aimee was busy memorizing whatever data she remembered. Then thought about what words had she composed for this afternoon's meeting.

Aimee held her breath several times.

Felt nervous and didn't want the nervousness to last until noon.

Aimee double-checked on how she looked.
