Handsome Ceo's Secretary of Choice
Chapter 67. Decision A Year ago

Rania came to a realization as the person who helped her asked, "are you okay?"

Rania nodded her head looking at the figure who had helped her. Awfully, Rania released herself from the figure of the man who had helped her.

When Rania stood up straight again, the man who had helped Rania stretched out his hand while introducing himself.

"Include me David, the new employee here. I work in the finance department."

Rania gawked at hearing that. Just a few days he did not enter work, changes in his workplace have been many. For example, the man in front of him who continues to extend his hand without intending to pull it back.

Rania. He smiled a little and returned the hand of a man named David, as he said.

"I'm Rania. One of the finance staff as well."

"Well, we're the same room. Nice to meet you."

"I am too. Oh yeah, thanks for your help. If there were no you, maybe I would have fallen on the floor" Rania said without mentioning that her leg had been sprained.

"Either. Emm ...." David thought for a moment before returning to his words, "how about lunch later. There aren't many people I know here. I see you're a person who gets along very quickly with other people so I'm taking you."

Rania thought for a moment to weigh up her answer. But a second later, he nodded his head in agreement.

"Well, I'll pick you up at your desk."

"Eh, no need. We met at the cafeteria office only," said Rania quickly.

"All right, we'll meet there."

They also walked side by side to their own rooms. However, without them knowing, it turns out that when Rania almost fell earlier and was instead captured by David, someone saw them with a view that was difficult to interpret. The person accidentally saw them as the glass elevator that brought him to the twenty-first floor precisely walked up during the unexpected incident.

Well, he's a Khanif. The man who was currently sitting pensively in his big chair while facing out. Once again he looked out when his heart was feeling ungodly.

Really, he doesn't understand himself. Sometimes he feels very happy to be around Rania again, sometimes he feels unhappy when Rania is around.

Is it because he used to force himself to accept Rania as his employee? Huft, Khanif let out a long breath. He never expected his decision a year ago like it had boomerang for him this time.

He vividly remembers how he fought for Rania to be his employee. His mind floated on the scene a year ago.

At that time, Khanif saw all the files of job applicants who applied for jobs in his office. Until his eyes were fixed on a very familiar name. His hand outstretched to retrieve the applicant's file. He smiled as he read a name written on a job application file.

"Rania," he said slowly.

He also read Rania's bio. Starting from the name, his educational history to his expertise. He is quite satisfied with the contents of Rania's self-biodata. He thought that since he rejected Rania at that time, Rania would get worse. But in fact he was wrong. Even Rania shone more since that incident.

Rania is like a pearl hidden by a shell stored at the bottom of the ocean. It is so precious that it cannot be wasted. Khanif kept Rania's application file on the other side of his desk. He is sure Rania will be accepted to work in his place, considering there is an employee who resigned.

While Khanif kept it, Rahayu hrd employee who is in charge of selecting prospective new employee receipts came with a map in his hand.

"Good morning sir."

"Morning, please sit."

"This is the file you asked for. I've all been selected on request, sir."

Khanif nodded his head, receiving a file from Rahayu. For a moment he read everything. He frowned in wonder when he did not find a name that he had been convinced would enter this file if he saw from his amazing bio.

Khanif also saw Rahayu. "Why isn't anyone accepted for a job in finance?"

"I'm sorry for my negligence sir. I was late to tell my father that one of the employees who initially intended to resign, did not resign again."

"Well what's the real name in his place if he resigns?"

"He is Rania, sir. I see his bio as very good and reliable in the future."

"Then, enter his name to be one of the employees here."

"But sir, it looks like we've overloaded people in the finance division."

"Just put him in. Let him work here" Khanif said without a rebuttal.

"Good, sir." Rahayu came out of Khanif's room. In any case, Rahayu has to take care of this work.

Khanif stood up and stepped near the window of his room, then he put both his hands into his pants pocket. He breathed a sigh of relief.

How not, after a long time, he could meet with Rania again. The figure of a woman who is always avoided by men because of its shortcomings. But not for him. For her Rania is a good woman figure, understanding and also cheerful. So he could become familiar with it.

***

The current state of Khanif is the same as the situation a year ago when he accepted Rania to be his employee even though the employees in the financial sector already have their respective duties. At that time he did not care about everything. Because the most important thing at that time, keeping Rania in sight. But what is this? After seeing Rania who almost fell and was helped by a new employee in the finance department as well, has almost made Khanif regret his decision first.

Not that Khanif regretted that Rania worked at his company. Only, Khanif regretted making Rania work in the financial section. Because that way, surely every time Rania with a new employee named David will constantly meet.

Neither in terms of work nor in work. That's what Khanif actually regretted and tried to avoid. But everything he could not change at will anymore.

If so, Khanif seems to want to make Rania alone as his secretary if it turns out Lisa and Farah are not in accordance with his expectations. But considering the words Rania used to be with Davina when they were still in the city of M who said that Rania was not interested in becoming her secretary, making Khanif undo his intentions.

He did not want to impose Rania's will. Let Rania choose her own path even though she will not be calm about it. In any case, Khanif has given all his decisions to Rahayu. As a professional, he could not possibly retract his words.

Khanif turned back to his desk because he wanted to immediately finish some documents that needed his signature.

It has been two hours Khanif struggled with a stack of documents that he must finish checking today as well. Even so focused and busy, Khanif did not hear anymore the sound of knocking on the door that was accompanied by the opening of the door of his room.

The small footsteps drew closer to Khanif, but Khanif was still immersed in his work. Khanif was shocked when there was a flick hand holding the document he was examining.

"Assalamu'alaikum's chat. Honey!"
