Clara looked at her son, then requested "Could you show me where Emma sits?"
Axiel nodded then tugged Clara excitedly toward the door in Ethan's office, but as they exited, she realised that a left turn revealed a quiet executive corridor with modern glass walls, just as exquisite as Ethan's office.
Right at the edge of that corridor sat Emma at her minimalist workstation, positioned perfectly to guard the CEO's office employee entry area.
Emma stood immediately when she saw them. "Mrs. Ashford, can I help with anything?" Emma asked politely.
Clara offered a small smile and spoke in a friendly tone.
"Hi Emma, I'm looking for some ice cream for my son, or some sort of snack. Do you know where we can get that around here?"
Emma answered smoothly,
"You don't have to Mrs. Ashford, I can sort that out for you. When he needs something, Mr. Ashford usually orders in, just tell me what you'd like and I'll have it delivered to the office."
Clara shook her head gently.
