check the schedule of appointments later in the week. Yes, an espresso would be very welcome, thank you.”
Rebecca was Joshua’s Office manager, right hand woman, best friend and confidante, all rolled into one; she had worked for Joshua for many years, since the early days, and he trusted her absolutely. She came bustling into his inner sanctum, with a coffee in one hand, milk jug in the other, and a sheaf of paperwork tucked under her arm.
Rebecca poured them both a coffee, added milk and brown sugar to Joshua’s and got her stenographer’s pad and pen at the ready. “So, where would you like to start?” she asked brightly, pen poised.
“I think we shall co-ordinate the diary initially, then you can leave me to it, thank you; by the way, field any calls for the next half an hour or so, could you? I need some peace and quiet to think.”
“No problem.” Rebecca was super-efficient and had the ability to sense what Joshua needed, almost before he did. She could tell that there was something thoughtful about his demeanor today, and knew he had something on his mind; it was her job to ensure that he did not get disturbed, and she would make sure that he would have his peace and quiet.
Ten minutes later, Rebecca left him to get on, and went out, closing the door quietly behind her.
Joshua sat back in his large leather chair, and reflected on the morning thus far; he was intrigued by the newcomer in the elevator, and wanted to know more about her; where was she from, how long had she been here? She could become his next ‘project’ he figured, and made a point of thumbing through the list of newcomers until he found her personal file. “Hm, Robin Cooper, twenty one, from Park Ridge.” He touched the small passport-size photo attached to her application form, and stroked along her jaw-line thoughtfully; he would make a point of bumping into her in the morning.
His attention was forced to return to business matters for the remainder of the day; he was CEO of Wallace International, whose main priorities were Investment Services; mainly those of custody services, whereby his company dealt with the safekeeping of the world’s securities trades, and their associated portfolios. They also dealt heavily in asset and hedge fund management, and they were due to complete on a large buy-out of an Insurance broker later on that week. Joshua knew that he could do with a PA on that job, but Rebecca was way too busy with the running of the office, not to mention the numerous other duties that he had bestowed on his oldest friend; maybe he could think of a way to get Robin up to his office, to assist with filing and photocopying etc.? “Definitely food for thought” he told himself, aware of the stiffening of his cock, at the thought of the sexy little stunner in the lift.

Robin’s heart leaped when her immediate supervisor, Miranda, told her she had a special job to do the following morning; she was to work with the CEO! She wondered who he was, and if maybe this would lead to a permanent job; she certainly hoped so.
The remainder of her day seemed to take forever; all she wanted to do was to get home, see Brad, and plan her outfit for the following day. She wanted to look professional and business-like, and make sure that she made a good impression; this could make a huge difference to her future.
Robin hurried her meal so that she could sort out the contents of her closet for the following day; “Why does everything look so childish?” she mused, “I really need to get some proper work wear sorted out; Mom? Have you got a black skirt I could borrow for work please? I have to do a job for the CEO tomorrow, and want to make a good impression.”
Caroline, Robin’s mom, was a young-looking forty two, and still had the same slim figure she had in her twenties; she ran upstairs, knowing how important it was for Robin to look good; she had been exactly the same at her age, and that was how she had met her
