All the members of the marketing team who were still talking to each other, have now begun to calm down. The mood of silence felt. All the noise stopped as a woman, Gabriel's assistant, stood up while putting a pile of files in front of Gabriel. He smiled kindly at the man, and said the same thing. "Thank you, Elloise" said Gabriel. The woman named Elloise, nodded without letting go of her smile.
A moment later, Gabriel turned on the LCD and directed the reflection to the white screen beside it. He who usually looks friendly, suddenly turned very serious when leading the meeting. The participants, including Autumn, listened carefully to Gabriel's explanation. This was the first time for Autumn to attend such a meeting.
"alright. These are the files that you have deposited with me" Gabriel said after finishing giving a lengthy explanation about the routine that will take place mid-year. He then took a map and mentioned the name on the front cover. "Sybille," said Gabriel. His gaze was now fixed on a girl who seemed to be standing. "Please state your idea."
Without having to be ordered twice, Sybille immediately explained the results of his thoughts that he had designed to the maximum. The girl also conveyed all of her amazing ideas in such a flexible manner. That's enough to affect Autumn. His head suddenly shrunk. Autumn felt that what he had designed was too ordinary, when compared with other ideas that had been presented one by one in the meeting.
In the end, Autumn's turn came. The girl stood up. Autumn is trying to stay as calm as possible. He must be able to control his nervousness. "Thank you for the opportunity you've given me. Um... My idea may not be as good as all my friends. I even only got it about a few minutes ago," Autumn sneered a few times to neutralize the clumsy taste in her.
"Alright, so I have a very simple thought. I love children, and also miss the childhood that passed a few dozen years ago. We all know it was a wonderful time, but there are many things we cannot do. My mom is very good at making cakes. But sometimes I just look at him and he doesn't allow me to do anything. So, I thought how happy it would be when I could give the opportunity to children with great curiosity to be able to be creative," said Autumn. His confidence was increasingly visible, because the girl seemed to have begun to feel comfortable with the pressure that had made him nervous.
"What was your idea, Miss Hillaire?" respond to Gabriel while looking closely at the girl.
"For this time, I want to invite many children to be able to learn and be creative with the chefs at the hotel, and answer the curiosity about how the experience creates something that can treat their curiosity. Cooking training, demo serving food on a plate, and of course a banquet with a typical menu from The Royal Royce hotel. I hope it's not too much, Mr. Archambeau, "Autumn ends his presentation of the idea. Chosen or not, certainly not a meaningful problem for the girl. One thing is certain, now he has been able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Gabriel was silent and thought. He must admit if Autumn has a different idea with his colleagues. Most of them, just develop old ideas from events that have often been done during his time as the chairman of marketing. "Interesting, Miss Hillaire. I will consider your idea and of course other ideas as well. You are all great and can work well. I'm glad to be on this team. May we always keep the cohesiveness. All right, I think that's enough for today. Thank you for taking your time and having a good day" Gabriel closed the meeting. He then stepped out of the room. While Autumn was still sitting with a feeling of relief.
"It seems that Mr. Archambeau was interested in your idea, Miss Hillaire," said Elloise, who had just finished tidying up a stack of maps and carrying them. Elloise's tone sounded full of innuendo in Autumn's ears. However, of course Autumn does not want to take a headache because of it. The girl's thoughts were on Benjamin whom she would meet later that afternoon.
Finally, the time to go home came. Autumn tidied herself up in the office toilet, before deciding to go to Benjamin's residence. Autumn felt that she had to look beautiful when she met the man of her heart.
Autumn smiled as she shook her head slowly. "No, Mr. Archambeau. I still have a little business" he replied kindly.
"alright. Good luck, Miss Hillaire," Gabriel got into her car and left the parking lot of the building with Autumn's cheerful gaze. After that, he then looked for a taxi and set off towards the residence of the man most alluring to him.
It only took half an hour on the way, finally Autumn arrived at the place he was headed, the luxury residence owned by Benjamin Royce. Autumn apparently had easy access to the house, so she could just walk to the main door and enter immediately.
Inside the house, the atmosphere felt lonely. Autumn circulated her gaze and looked for Benjamin's figure. "Ben ..." call him in a loud enough voice. However, there was no sign of Benjamin appearing in the room. Autumn stepped near the large painting on the wall and watched for a moment.
"Miss," without realizing that Benjamin was already behind her. Autumn flinched and immediately turned her head. While Benjamin just smiled calmly. He then grabbed Autumn by the waist and made the girl face him. A warm kiss greeted the brunette for a while, until Benjamin ended the sweet scene. He then invited Autumn to sit down, and made Autumn slip spoiled in his arms.
"How was it today?" benjamin asked as he gently kissed Autumn's forehead.
"Excellent," Autumn replied looking enthusiastic.
"What's so amazing?" ask Benjamin again. Autumn then immediately held her sitting position. He then told me everything that had been going on in the office all day. Autumn looked so excited and unceasingly smiled. While Benjamin listened to all the words of the beautiful girl with a charming smile.
"We used to hold events every mid-year to welcome the summer. Gabriel came up with the idea, and I thought it was really interesting, '" Benjamin took Autumn's story quite seriously. "I hope you enjoy your internship in my office, Elle," he continued.
