My Beloved

Roosevelt showed John Lu the whole Business Development Department. It was the largest department in the Mo Corporation. She knew that all great ideas came from this department. There were small sections and each section dealt with different types of project proposals.

One was the entertainment section that recruited new models and decided their jobs, another one was the restaurant and hotel section where their job was to bring buy hotels and make them more profitable, and then, fashion and clothing section where they were gathering new fashion designers and creating new fashion houses, giving the designers some competitions to make them come up with new plans, also, advertisement section.

John Lu watched everything in awe. He had prepared his heart for it but to think so many hardworking, talented employees were working their heads to come up with the best plans was actually amazing.

He already started feeling the pressure as an intern. If he started working here officially, he would have to compete with these amazing people.

After giving him a quick tour and explaining every department's job, Roosevelt explained, "I won't give you any specific job in any section. You will have to work for everyone. Writing, counting, making copies, helping them to prepare for meetings; what I mean is – help them whenever they ask for your service."

He took him in the middle of the department and showed John Lu an empty table. Then, he stated, "This will be your seat so that others can find you easily and ask for your service anytime. You must have clear instructions before you work. Ask your seniors again and again if you can't understand."

He added, "It's normal to make mistakes but work sincerely. Try to make fewer mistakes. If you can't do anything, just ask the people around you how to do it. I'm sure you won't have any problem. Do you understand, John?" He paused and glanced at the intern behind him.

"Yes, I understand," John Lu answered while nodding vigorously.

Roosevelt sighed after seeing John Lu's enthusiasm and reminded him, "Listen John, you see, girls these days are into Asian men; especially Chinese and Korean men. Since you are Chinese, be careful around women in this company. Office romance is forbidden in our company."

"Yes, I know. I will work diligently. Just you wait, Mr. Roosevelt, boss!" John Lu promised.

Roosevelt felt a bit happy upon hearing the word 'boss'. Everyone called him 'Roosevelt' or 'Sir Roosevelt'. No one ever called him 'boss'. He patted this young intern's back with his big palm, feeling proud for the first time after joining the company. Afterward, he said, "I've faith in you, boy."

"Young Master Mo, you have to review this one," Roosevelt gave the Managing Director a blue file.

Mo Yuan was wearing a black shirt with maroon colored pants and a blazer. He took this file and opened it to check the content inside.

While he was reading, Roosevelt's eyes were locked in the wristwatch Mo Yuan was wearing. He couldn't help but open his mouth, "I thought your wristwatch was limited edition. But today, I saw someone else was wearing the same watch. It's common I guess."

Mo Yuan paused reading and glanced at his wristwatch. It was indeed a limited edition. Moreover, it was ordered. There were only two wrist watches designed like this in the world.

"You have seen it today. Where did you see it?" he asked curiously.

"Our new intern was wearing the exact same type. Although his watch was a thinner, more girlish, you two have similar watches," Roosevelt remarked. "I didn't think he was a girlish type. Maybe it was the last watch and he had no choice but to buy it," he mumbled the last two sentences.

"New intern, who is that person?" Mo Yuan seemed curious.

Roosevelt commented, "John Lu, new intern in our department. He is enthusiastic. He sees everything positively. He has a bright future. I think he will learn quickly. Everyone already started to give him work. Let's see how he works."

"John Lu, I haven't heard about him. Did the President himself interview him?" Mo Yuan inquired.

Roosevelt replied, "I was also there with the Administrator. We chose him because he has lots of potentials."

The corner of Mo Yuan's lips lifted subtly. He signed the papers and closed the file. After that, he handed the file and questioned, "Is there anything else?"

Roosevelt checked Mo Yuan's sign before saying, "I've already told you that you need an assistant. You are still a student. I know you are good at your job but with an assistant, you can have a relaxing time with your family. You are not even going out with anyone. This is the time to have fun. Enjoy this time before you turn to an old man like me."

Mo Yuan was amused upon hearing the forty five year old man's words. He looked at him and commented, "If that intern of yours does a good job, I'll think of taking him as my secretary. Sounds fair?"

"Him?" Roosevelt was puzzled. "Why do you want him as your secretary? Shouldn't you take someone more mature and experienced?"

"Maybe we are destined to be together," Mo Yuan commented.

Roosevelt's eyes widened in shock. He thought his heart was about to stop. 'What is he talking about?' he wondered. 'Destined to be together? Is he really gay as the rumor said?' His heart was beating faster as if worried about it.

"John sweetheart, can you make twenty copies of this file? We need it for the meeting." A sexy Junior Executive came to find John Lu and handed him a file. She was reading a white silk shirt with a black pencil skirt and black blazer, and a pair of black heels. Three buttons of her shirt were unbuttoned, showing her cleavage. She was wearing red lipsticks. Her makeup made her lovely face alluring. She could draw any man's heart toward her with her seductive eyes.

John Lu smiled at her brightly as he said, "Of course, I will do it immediately."

"I hope I'm not bothering you," the Junior Executive stated.
