Chapter 66: The Patriarch’s Birthday Party
During the week, Arayana heaved a sigh of relief that Gaeya Corporation was not in charge of the logistics for George Lee’s birthday celebration. Erik however needed to do a brief presentation of the company’s current standing. She and Erik were busy the entire week.
On Wednesday, Antonio paid Erik a visit.
"Hello, my friend." He greeted Erik warmly then shifted his attention to Aryana who was sorting some documents for Erik.
"I came here for Aryana but found out that she is no longer in the training department."
"Yeah, Camille is on emergency leave and I needed a temporary secretary," Erik answered coldly.
"I will not beat around the bush as I have other matters to attend to. I came here to hand this invitation for this Friday’s party." Antonio passed an intricately designed invitation card to Aryana.
"All the models of the products that will be launched during Mr. George’s birthday are invited. Be my female date." He said as he winked at Aryana which did not escape Erik’s hawk-like eyes.
"Don’t bother. She will be attending with me." Erik said in a chilly voice.
"As what? As your secretary? She deserved better than that." He snickered.
Erik threw daggers at him. "That’s not your business at all Antonio. See yourself out." Erik commanded in a domineering tone.
"See you on Friday Aryana. You’ll be surprised how beautiful our photos and videos are." He snickered before striding towards the door.
