Chapter 53 GET OVER THIS TRAUMA
- Three weeks later.
- The car screeched to a halt, I looked out the window, then realized we were now at the company. Without saying a single word to the driver, I pushed the door open, then got off. I had barely taken four steps when I heard his voice from behind, “Welcome back, boss” He cheered then came to stand beside me and put his arm around my shoulder. Directly, I receded my pace then glanced at his arm on my shoulder. Taking note of what I meant, he slowly withdrew his arm but didn't look affected. “I'm so pleased to see you back to work, Alexander. I miss working with you and even the whole employees positively felt your absence” He began again, the enthusiasm in his voice was so clear. I didn't say any word to him as I kept on with my pace. Soon, we reached the reception, and I was quite stunned to see some staff in there, “Welcome back, Mr. Alexander!” They chorused excitedly as they jammed their hands together. I peeked at Mack's face, he met my gaze, the happy smile on his lips gradually disappeared, “Don't you like it?” He asked cautiously in a gentle voice. I just discarded my gaze from his upsetting face, then left their midst, without spelling any word.
- Felicia hurriedly rose to her feet upon sighting me got down from the elevator. “You're welcome back, sir” She greeted with enthusiasm, lowering her head. I only nodded my head, then walked past her table to my office. I pushed the door open, then slowly lunged myself inside. With my hand still holding the doorknob, my eyes reeled around every corner of the office. It was my first time being away from work for so long, it was just three weeks, but it felt like three years. My eyes settled on her seat, there were still a few files on her table. Every place was so neat, and it made me feel she would be coming to work. Thinking of the prospect that she would be coming, my mood suddenly lit up a bit and there was a glossy smile on my lips.
