Chapter 244- Delinda’s Worth
Delinda twisted her wrist to have a look at her watch. It was noon and there was no sign of Marissa yet.
Being a head, she should be here by now. Such a careless prick she is!
Shang Chi watched her and then lowered his eyes where she was moving her legs frantically, "You look nervous, Del."
She fidgeted absent-mindedly, "Huh?"
"I said you look nervous. What is it?" Delinda shook her head and leaned over her laptop that was provided by the office.
"Hey. I know, your relationship with Marissa has been quite strained lately. You might have some solid reasons, but don’t forget she is a very generous person. Anything personal should stay aside."
He pointed out and got back to work. Delinda was only half listening to him. She wanted Marissa to be here as that seat was waiting for its owner.
"Guys!" Kate came inside and took her seat that was at the other end of the hall, "Marissa won’t be coming today so in case of any queries, you people can approach me or Dean."
"What!" Delinda stood up in frustration, "But why?"
The hall got silent when Delinda shot the question loudly, "As a head she is supposed to be here."
"No. She isn’t," Dean spoke from the doorway, "Your job is to complete your tasks and leave, Delinda. You aren’t responsible for MSin’s employees’ leave of absence. Stop poking your nose in others business."
