Chapter 96: Only Tony
Marcella went upstairs to meet with Louis Fletcher. Rather than wondering what he might want with her, she was wondering whether Tony got Cindy fired. Gloria was so sure.
Louis Fletcher’s office was in the top floor. When she stepped out of the elevator, Louis’ assistant was waiting for her and she escorted her to Fletcher’s office.
She was not asked to wait and was immediately sent to Fletcher’s room. Louis Fletcher was sitting on the leather chair. He got up immediately after the door opened.
It was as if he was waiting for her.
"Good morning, Mr. Fletcher," Marcella smiled.
"Just Louis, please, Marcella; I insist," Louis held out his hand for a shake.
Marcella nodded with a smile and shook his hand. He asked her to take a seat and she did. Before she had to ask, Louis told her why he called for her.
"I asked you for lunch that day to talk but sadly, you had to be somewhere else. I wanted to tell you that you can come to me anytime you want to whether it is for giving suggestions or for complaints. Dad asked me to make the workplace as comfortable as possible for your sake," Louis leaned back on the chair crossing his legs.
"Thank you," she smiled. "I’m grateful."
She was not planning on perusing the privileges given to her. She wanted to be a normal employee. She didn’t want to be the subject of gossips.
"You’re not going to ask me anything, are you?" Louis said rubbing his lips. He was leaning casually and stared at her, tilting his head.
The natural light from the window cast a halo over his head. He looked angelic.
