Shirley immediately tensed up. Only then did she realize that the internship she
thought of and the one she was experiencing were completely different.
She had thought it would be simple by just standing guard at the door every day.
Little did she know that she would have to accompany Zacharias to discuss
business.
“Understood.” She nodded calmly while resigning herself to the situation. Shirley
followed behind Zacharias and entered the elevator, while the bodyguard had to
stay downstairs. This was the highest level of meeting, so bodyguards were not
allowed in; only assistants were permitted.
As soon as she entered the elevator, her expression visibly tightened. At that
moment, a deep male voice asked, “Are you nervous?”
She nodded without hesitating. “I'm just an intern bodyguard.”
“Relax. It's just a routine conversation.” Zacharias reassured her.
Shirley took a deep breath to calm her nerves. They reached the sixth floor, and
Zacharias walked ahead. They entered a luxurious meeting room, and Zacharias
immediately smiled and greeted a foreign guest, who stood up to welcome them
too, with a graceful demeanor.
They shook hands, exchanged warm smiles, and conversed in Chinese.
Zacharias exuded a calm and commanding presence while displaying wisdom
and convincing power in his words despite his age.
Shirley also smiled and greeted the two people, then watched as they chatted
while walking toward the couch..
Shirley sat in one of the nearby chairs along with the other person's assistant.
Just by looking at the blonde-haired, blue-eyed female assistant sitting beside
her, she could tell that the person next to her was not a simple individual.
Fortunately, the atmosphere between Zacharias and the foreign guest was very
good and they mostly focused on fostering friendship: between the two countries
without involving conflicting interests.
Shirley's gaze had to stay on Zacharias as she observed every expression and
gesture of the man. It was evident that he had earned his position through
capability and not luck.
Luckily, such conversations usually didn't last too long. After almost an hour, the
foreign assistant reminded her boss about the time and indicated they had to
catch a flight.
The guest stood up, shook hands with Zacharias, and even hugged him as a
friendly farewell ritual. Zacharias accompanied the guest to the elevator, and as
the guest entered, Shirley finally sighed in relief.
Zacharias had toned down his friendliness. He turned to Shirley, who was sitting
on the couch, and said, “Tell them I want to rest here for a while.”
She immediately picked up her earpiece, communicated with the captain, and
conveyed Zacharias’ request.
“Received. Take good care of Mr. Flintstone,” the captain responded.
“Understood,” she replied. After that, Shirley's gaze shifted to the man on the
couch. He did nothing. He just sat there and rested. She noticed his tea was
finished, so she walked over and poured another cup for him.
He turned to look at her and she stepped back. He sipped the tea and suddenly
asked, “Are you afraid of death?”
