14 The Offer

I was stunned and was just staring at the man in front of me. He looks short and in his early forties. He is wearing a black suit with a piece of equipment in his right ear which looks like a Bluetooth earphone. He was smiling with a bouquet of roses in hand. Is he my Genie?

"My boss wants you to have this, Miss Myers." He handed me the bouquet. He is still smiling.

"Who is your boss?" I asked.

"He said you already know who he is. I should be going now Miss Myers. Have a nice day." Then he left, leaving me at awe.

Everyone in the room was looking at me. After the man left, my colleagues started to gather around me.

"Wow! That's so romantic. Who is his boss? He looks very rich." Says one.

"I envy you. I wish someone will also send me even a single rose in here." Says one female colleague.

"This is the second time someone sent you flowers Jessica. You are so lucky. Is that the reason why you look different these days?" Says another.
