A shrill ding signaling the arrival of the elevator, the door slowly open. Lifting his head Elias steps from the contraption. His eyes being greeted with the bustle of workers and guest. Most of whom were oblivious to his arrival. Though a young blond rushes to his side, her smiled never faltering though he could sense fear behind it. "Good Morning, sir." Her words are soft and sweet, confidence laced them, betraying her attempt to keep things professional. "Here are your messages." She rushes out quickly as he starts to move through the building. His office doors in his line of sight. Nodding his head he paused briefly at the doors, wondering if there was more she wished to say, though when she made no attempt he opened his door and entered. The door swung shut behind him, cutting the busyness off from his site. The man moved though his office before dropping the files on his desk. He sat peacefully at his desk, before grabbing the first file. His brow shooting up as he took in the employment papers. He was a little to busy to deal with the hiring and firing of employees, but the moment he opened it he froze. The blue eyes beauty that stared back at him, had his mind going back to a time long past. Those same blue eyes had pierced his soul as he moved through the club. She couldn't have been legal to drink but then he'd been mistaken before. But her desire to have him was more than enough to incite his humor, and who was he to deny a woman her wants of him. Shutting the file he place it down before closing his eyes. He didn't want to think about that, sighing he collected himself before turning his attention to the rest of the messages.
The chair next to her slid out before being occupied, her eyes lifting from her salad to the man now sitting next to her. "Hello Ryan." She greeted the man. This place wasn't normally crowded but with all the preparation for the up coming event. There was more than the fair share of people. And normally Ryan would have never taken a seat next to her, but it seemed it was one of the last few available. She smiled politely before returning to her food. Ryan was one of her boss's. Really he was her boss's boss. He worked under Mr. Park, everyone knew he was his right hand man. But that didn't stop him from over seeing most of the hiring and firing, plus job performances. Most of the people would say that his title was HR. But he did to much for the company for that to be his only title. "Hello." He greeted, he seemed busy even though he was on lunch, his phone in his hand as he did the best to eat. Shaking her head Harlyn turned back to her food, thinking it was best to just allow him to work. Everyone in the company knew he was over worked, but never said anything about it. Nibbling on her salad she heard a slur of curse words leave his mouth. Before a sigh, "and why the hell was she fired?" He questioned. "I beg your pardon?" She asked softly, uncertain if he was speaking to her or not. Turning her attention back to the man, he was now conversing with someone on the other end of the phone. He shook his head, before letting another sigh leave his lips. "I understand." The words were very forced. Hanging up he pocketed the device before turning to look at the stunned woman next to him, smiling sheepishly and rubbing the back of his neck. "Sorry."He apologized for interrupting her meal. "You've been working with Tisha?" He asked her, watching as she nodded, continuing her food. "Well it seems she was let go, and we need someone to take over for her." He said. Before finally touching his food, normally he wouldn't think about using one of their employees for this. But this was so last minute and Harlyn had been working on the project so she wouldn't be dropped in on her head. "I think it'd be good experience for you to take over." He said almost like he was trying to convince her to take the job. Though he'd never really even offered. "I.. um I mean things are pretty much done, just last minute prep so it can't be that hard." She informed him, feeling like she was agreeing.
