Andy took a few banknotes out of his pocket and handed them to them as their tips. He did not exchange currency when he came here. Hence, he could only give them Russian rubles.

However, the hotel was an international hotel. The hotel waiter would not be surprised to see different kinds of currency. He left the suite after receiving the tips. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Marcos looked at the dishes served on the table. They were delicate and sumptuous. It was as expected from the local delicacies. He said, “Looks good."

Andy nodded and replied, "The food is delicate, indeed. But if you'd like to eat more, these wouldn't be enough."

Andy took the food poison detection kit out of the bag he brought along with him here.

The kit was used to detect the safety of the food. It was because of Marcos' special identity. As his assistant, Andy would prepare it just in case someone was trying to harm Marcos.

Marcos patiently waited for Andy to finish testing the food. After making sure the food was safe to consume, Marcos picked up the spoon and said, "Sit down and try these."

Andy sat on the chair as he watched Marcos skillfully pick up the spoon and take a bite of the breakfast. He frowned, "Boss, let me get another set of cutleries."

As a member of the Abaza family, even though Marcos' mother was not born into a wealthy family, which caused him to be unpopular among the rest, he was trained to learn social etiquette.

Besides, his parents had met each other here. He was often brought to Western restaurants when he was young. That was why he knew the table etiquette here. He did not look like a foreigner at all.

"There should be another set of cutleries in the kitchen," Marcos reminded him.

Andy nodded, walked into the kitchen, and got a set of cutleries. He ate the breakfast served by the hotel together with Marcos.

"It's good," praised Marcos.

Andy was not used to eating Western food, but he thought it tasted good too. He replied, "Boss, the food here tastes better than the Western restaurants in Russia."

"Yeah." Marcos did not have the habit of talking while eating. Therefore, he did not talk much.

T Corporation.

Luca returned to the office and marched into the laboratory after putting on her white coat.

Rhett was surprised to see her walking in, and he asked, “Dr. Craw, didn't you tell us that you had something to do today and you weren't coming to the office?" "There's been a change of plan. Everyone, continue with your research as usual," replied Luca. She returned to her seat and began to do the research.

On the other hand.

Tina got back to the office. The others working in the secretaries' office were surprised to see her back so early. Cheryl asked, "Tina, why are you back? Weren't you going to pick someone up?"

"It's done." Tina returned to her seat and picked up her cup, planning to get herself some coffee.

Amur had been giving Tina the cold shoulder lately, and she had finished the medicine Luca gave her. She did not get enough rest last night. However, the makeup she put on her face concealed her pale complexion, making her look energetic and spirited.

"You came back as soon as you picked him up? He's the CEO of M Group. Aren't you supposed to stand by round the clock?" Cheryl frowned and disagreed with Tina's practice.

Everyone in the secretaries' office knew that Luke had sent Tina to receive Marcos.

Some of them were envious of Tina being fortunate enough to be able to entertain such a big shot. After all, there might be a chance for them to become a rich wife if they had the chance to come into contact with someone wealthy and influential like Marcos.

Those who worked in the secretaries' office wanted a chance like that, but Luke was the one who gave the instructions. They had no choice but to listen to him and let Tina do the job.

That was why they were envious of Tina, and some of them were jealous of her too.

Cheryl, who started working as a secretary at the same time as Tina clearly belonged to the latter group.

"Mr. Marcos said that he'd like to get some rest, and he asked me to come back first. That's why I'm back in the office. Is there any problem with that?" Tina said indifferently after she heard Cheryl talking to her in a disapproving manner.

Tina knew what Cheryl and the others had in mind. Every guest the secretaries had come in contact with was rich and famous. Jason was the one who would make the arrangements and decide who would receive the guests.

Then, the secretaries would be able to fight for the chance to meet the guests. Jason was easy to convince, after all. Those who were able to become Luke's secretary were capable of the position. Hence, it did not matter who was sent to entertain the guests.

However, they had no choice but to obey when Luke was the one who assigned the job.

Besides, many wealthy men had visited their office, but not many of them were single and outstanding like Marcos.

Cheryl secretly held a grudge against Tina when she heard the indifference in Tina's tone. It would be great if she was the one who was assigned the job.

Cheryl was pretty sure she knew how to grab the opportunity and do it better than Tina. She knew how to make Marcos happy with her too.

"If I were you, I'd still book a room at the hotel and stand by around the clock even if he told me that there's no need to wait for him there," said Cheryl.

"Isn't that what a chauffeur should do? Ms. Lindsey, you don't have to worry about that. Lliam will be there round the clock, and he'll never neglect our honored guest," replied Tina. She rose to her feet and glanced at the other secretaries.

Tina and Cheryl were the secretaries from the earliest batch who came to work in the office. That was why Cheryl was the only one who dared to talk while the others kept silent.

Cheryl sneered and said, "Lliam is just a chauffeur. He only knows how to drive. Do you think Boss is going to let you get away with it if you neglect his guest?"

"That'll be my business, then. I'm the one who'll get lectured. It's not your place to tell me what to do, so why don't you get your job done instead of thinking of getting a room in the hotel and waiting for our honored guest to knock on your door?" Tina was in a bad mood, and she was not close with Cheryl either. That was why she replied with a sharp retort.

Cheryl's face turned red when her wicked thoughts were exposed. She glowered at Tina and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"You know what I'm talking about. T Corporation is a legal company. All partnerships and projects are legal. The company doesn't get the projects through under-the-table deals. But if you're interested in providing such services, I shall wait for Mr. Crawford to return and submit a proposal to him so that he knows what you're really good at," Tina stomped out of the secretaries' office.

Cheryl was furious. She slammed the table hard and scowled. "Who does she think she is? How dare she taunt me?!"

Secretary A, who was beside Cheryl said, "Ms. Cheryl, calm down. I can see Tina isn't in a good mood today. She didn't mean it."

"She didn't mean it? No, she did it on purpose. She's taking advantage of the fact that Boss thinks highly of her, and that's why she has the guts to insult me. I'm not going to let it slide." Cheryl stared at the door angrily. Tina had already disappeared behind the door.

Secretary A dared not to say another word.

Tina and Cheryl were the senior secretaries in this office, after all. It was a bad idea to offend either one of them.

Although Tina was on good terms with everyone and she treated everyone with respect, they had this feeling that Tina was not someone who could be treated like a doormat either.

There was a sudden dead silence in the secretary's office. The only sound left was the clattering sound of typing on keyboards.

Luca and Tina brought Marcos and Andy to do some sightseeing for the next few days. The places Marcos wanted to visit were special, and the addresses he gave them were old addresses.

Tina was only able to figure out where the locations were after asking her grandfather about the addresses. Then, she would ask Lliam to drive them there.

However, Luca noticed the trace of disappointment in Marcos' eyes whenever they reached each place. It was as though the places had failed to meet his expectations.
