Charles and Freda chatted for a while, laughter slipping between their words as Freda kept pressing him to spill the identity of the lucky man but Charles stayed tight-lipped, dodging every attempt with a playful smirk and a shake of his head.
Eventually, their heartwarming conversation came to an end, and they went their separate ways.
Freda had to meet up with two other cleaning staff members—today's assignment was scrubbing down the company bathrooms.
"Pfttt!"
Freda groaned at the thought but still flashed Charles a wink before heading off.
Meanwhile, Charles's duty remained the same—cleaning CEO Augustine's office.
It had been assigned to him months ago, back when he'd boldly told Augustine he no longer wanted to work for the company. That very same day, Augustine had handed him a marriage contract proposal.
Sigh!
Presently, Charles slowly made his way to Augustine's office.
