CHAPTER 49

"Hector..."
"Aurora?"
"Hector you told me that I can ask for your help if I ever need it, didn't you?" Without a moment of delay, the man from the other side of the phone shouted yes, maybe a little too enthusiastically making Aurora laugh.
"My boss fired me from my job and I desperately need another one....you told me you need a secretary too....um can I apply to be the one?" The receptionist sitting nearby who was trained to smile while dealing with clients and even maintain her friendly aura with the disposition of a high-class employee spluttered out a mouthful of coffee when she heard the words leaving the mouth of her boss.
Cecil, the personal bodyguard of Aurora stopped walking for a moment.
Their princess was fired? By whom...by their King? But how can one fire their own children? Has the princess fallen somewhere accidentally and hit her head....the problem looked severe or maybe due to work and stress their princess has lost her mind and was hallucinating.
"M-My secretory?" Hector looked at the sculpture he had made of Aurora and thought about her in the uniform with a pair of glasses making his ears redden.
"I will look after your meals and help you draw your figures....you said you wanted to spend time with me and I don't know any other way better...oh and I will work in less salary too, these are the works of a secretary right?"
"NO! I will give you a good salary and I will cook meals.....you-you need to stay by my side and help me draw...yes that is enough." The way the man with glittering silver irises said that made it look like he would give her a free salary and the only thing she needed to do was to let him watch her like a creep.
"I will bring you a home-cooked meal today while coming there then." The angelic sculptor opened his mouth to deny at first yet, at last, thought of tasting food made by her hands and relented.
The phone was disconnected with a beep yet the employees had not resumed their work and looked at their master in a trance.
"Princess.....should I call a doctor?"
"No, call my mother instead and tell her that I am going on leave for a month as she has told me to."
So it was this serious.

The decorated room looked as if a disaster had happened and left the items in a state of catastrophe.
First, it was a white T-shirt that was selected then it changed to blue and soon all the colors of the rainbow were tried out. Then it was a change in style and shirts were tried, the youtube video playing in the background dared to teach the most handsome man gracing the earth how to look 'handsome'.
'Fold your sleeves and show off your arms, smile gently.'
"Basically let him show off his charm and murder people as they die of a heart-attack." Mr. Bronson standing in the background muttered before sighing for the umpteenth time for today and collecting the fallen fabric before folding it and keeping it in the wardrobe.
"I have too little to wear....Mr. Bronson, can you please order the designer shirts from Ion."
"Sir they have already sent their best designs to you."
"They are not as good as they were used to." The man muttered under his breath before turning around and smiling at his servant.
"Or maybe you are more eccentric than you usually are." The head maid coughed covering up the words of the butler and cleaned the flower pot for the fifth time today.
"Mr Bronson...I don't look well right?" The butler was almost close to having a nosebleed and just nodded while internally crying, even he as a man could see the regality let alone a female.
"Sir you look alright, also your guest is going to arrive in five minutes." As if the alarm had made him settle on the one he was wearing Hector came out of the room making his servants hurry up with the preparations.
"Have you prepared a bouquet of peonies?"
"Yes"
"What about the brushes? Are they scattered in the room well?" The maid wanted to ask if she could also apply for being the master's secretary because that job only entailed collecting the paintbrushes and sitting and talking to the boss, the job of the maid was too tiring.
"Y-Yes" or maybe not, since the strict look the man gave them vs the way he was excited to welcome his other employee it was too different....their master was biased.

Aurora ate and Hector watched her face
When she had her steak served the man cut it into small pieces for her to eat
"Hector, what do you like to do regularly?"
"watching yo-no no no... I like to paint and draw." Silver irises froze when the brown cocoa pools clashed looking intensely.
"So, do you want me to clean your office for you?"
"Y-Yes I really like cleanliness......I like it so much that I always keep my room neat and tidy without a speck of dust."
"Then should I come a little earlier daily since it might take some time for me to arrange? I do not like lazy people so I don't want to be one." Aurora went a little closer whispering while a devilish smile formed on her face. The flustered face of the man making her feel like this was the best decision she had taken to listen to her mother and pursue her own dreams and happiness for once.
"Ofcourse! Come early...things should be done fast and be well managed......I don't like people taking too much time for small things as well....I, myself am pretty fast."
The employees "....."
'Sure.....we know how fast you are.'
