Chapter 389: President of dumbs’ council

Finn continued seeing her quieting down, "That's good. You better don't tell your President Cooper, she will chop me into pieces."

Rose faintly smiled hearing that, "Your QR code."

"Huh?" Finn doesn't like to take back anything he gave in the form of money, "Do you really want to wire me?"

Rose's eyes again filled up, "Is this really so costly?"

Finn quickly spoke to calm her and stop her tears back, "No, no, no... Don't start crying. This is your welcome gift from Starlight."

Rose blinked looking at Finn blankly. The latter thought she was again going to cry but she asked, "Then why didn't you give me when I came?"

Finn: "..."

If he starts giving welcome and send-off gifts, then he will have to close his company and open a gift shop. "Consider this as my favor to you and you return it when I want. Alright?"

"Oh!" Rose again gave it thought and asked, "How will I get to know you will need a favor? You have everything at your beck and call."

Finn was now speechless and leaned back on his seat. He understood the main difference between Aria and Rose. Aria was smart, talented, and importantly brave. Rose was smart but very innocent and anybody could con her easily.

Thinking the topic would drag long, he created a solution, "I need a female partner for an upcoming banquet, come with me."

Rose thought about Katie Archer who left the country for studies recently after breaking up with Finn so she thought he needed a partner for the banquet and accepted. "I will come."

Finn internally breathed a sigh of relief and gave her heads up again, "You better don't tell Alia that I bullied you."

Rose awkwardly smiled which Finn thought as yes but it wasn't. She had only Aria to tell about Finn so she was definitely going to whinge her but saying not to tell anything to Finn.

--- At Starlight --

Dustin saw Finn and Rose entering together. He quickly updated to Aria about the status of their plan.

Since Finn didn't get angry when she cried, Rose wasn't scared of him much and completed her day occasionally glancing at her new smartphone.

As soon as her work was over for the day, she went to the mobile shop to ask if her mobile had something customized or it was normal. After knowing it was just a normal mobile, she patted her chest feeling relief and dialed Aria to tell everything.

---

Aria was driving her car with Alan beside her when Rose narrated everything. Aria didn't tell her anything and she was glad Finn wasn't cold, instead, he was enjoying Rose's company.

She assured her, she wouldn't tell Finn anything before hanging up the call. She glanced at Alan who silently heard everything, "So what do you think?"

"Your secretary has no brain."

Aria's lips twitched hearing that. She pulled his ear to scold but earned a kiss on her cheek. 

'Bye-bye, my little anger.' Her husband knows well to cool her down every time.

Alan took the topic which he was contemplating, "Honey!" Aria hummed with her eyes on the road then Alan continued, "Meet President Morse once."

Aria frowned hearing it. She knows her biological aunt can't walk and has nobody with her. If she sees her in that state, she would definitely want to help her so she didn't want to pull up more trouble.

Alan saw her silent and her expression grave so he revealed about the mother of Vince's girlfriend. "Vin's girlfriend is President Morse's daughter who ran away from home due to Terrance Morse."

Aria knew Vince had a girlfriend and she had even seen pictures but didn't know she was Morse. "Hence our few facial features match."

Alan seriously responded, "But you are the prettiest."

Aria couldn't help but smile hearing him. For him, no one looks more beautiful than her. "You can't see me serious for even a second, could you?"

Then both started flirting with each other on the way to the Cooper mansion.

The next day at Starlight Entertainment.

Rose was extremely famous in the company from the receptionist to A list artist of the company to the director. Many assistants of the celebrity were secretly checking her out and spreading the news about her.

Dustin was sharp and soon reported it to Finn, "President Stanley, everyone is curious about Secretary Rose and that might attract unnecessary trouble for her."

Finn furrowed his brows remembering it. He couldn't understand why those mindless actresses were behind him. At any cost, he can't let anything happen to Rose who was dumb enough to believe everyone. "Call her in."

Dustin quickly called Rose to the office. The latter greeted him, "President Stanley!"

Finn didn't raise his head and instructed, "Other than my and Dustin's order, you don't have to listen to anybody."

Rose glanced at Dustin's aloof face and then at Finn, "I will follow that, President Stanley."

Finn hummed and motioned his hand to leave but before Rose could exist, he called her back, "Rose!"

Dustin exited while Rose stood in front of him, "President Stanley, do I have any instruction?"

Finn saw her curiously for a few seconds and asked, "What will you do if the Vice President calls you for some work?"

Rose promptly and seriously responded, "I will go and check."

Finn controlled himself from facepalming, "What did I just order you a few seconds back?"

"I should just follow your and assistant Dustin's order. But the Vice President is a higher-level employee and he might have any work that needs your consent. I will have to look into it to report it to you."

Finn: "..."

Rose innocently looked at him waiting for him to speak whereas Finn blankly looked at her thinking if she was real.

If he orders any other secretary that they don't have to hear any other higher-level management employees, they will be on cloud nine thinking they will not have anything to do but this secretary was way too loyal to her work that she was even ready to ignore his order without knowing the problem she was in.

"You are Alia's favorite employee, aren't you?"

Rose promptly responded without caring why he asked, "Yes, she treats me more like a sister than a secretary."

"Do you know the reason?"

Rose never thought about it. She answered in confusion, "Because I am good at work."

Finn instantly responded right after her, "No, because you are the president of dumbs' council."

Rose: "..."
