Camila immediately approached him, saying, “No, Mr. Morgan, I misspoke. I believe it.
would be better for me to stay by your side as a secretary.”

A faint smile appeared on Maverick’s lips, but he still pretended to be understanding.
“You’re right. I didn’t consider the qualifications of the employees when I assigned your
work. Being the president’s secretary is indeed too challenging for you. Let’s start as a
general worker first.”
Camila never expected him to have this alternative plan.
Although he was clearly holding a grudge and intentionally making things difficult for
her, Camila believed that a real man could be flexible, and a woman could do the same.
She simply would not argue with this arrogant man.
“I can learn!” Camila patted her chest and said, “Mr. Morgan, even though my
qualifications are not as good as those of graduates from prestigious universities, I
have a strong desire to learn and improve every day! Besides, education does not
determine everything, right? Look at Sherry; even though she only has a high school

education, she was still able to get into Pimlico University. So, you can’t generalize
based on education alone, can you?”
Maverick chuckled lightly and nodded thoughtfully. “What you said is also true.
Education does not determine everything.”
There’s hope! Camila intensified her flattery. “Exactly! Mr. Morgan, give me a chance,
and I will definitely be a competent secretary
“Are you sure?”
Camila straightened her back and gritted her teeth. “I’m very sure!”
Isn’t it just recording schedules? She can set an alarm clock!
Isn’t it just taking good meeting minutes? She can use a voice recorder!
What’s so difficult about being a secretary?
Maverick turned around, and a glimmer of shrewdness flashed in his eyes. “The job of a

secretary… is not as simple as you imagine.”
“Then… can you guide me?”
“It’s possible,” Maverick said. “Alright, considering your father’s sake, I’ll give you
chance. But the probation period will be extended to three years.”
“What the hell?” Camila was dumbfounded. “So strict?”
Maverick raised an eyebrow. “Don’t want to?”

With just
one sentence, Camila instantly became timid: “No, no, no, I’m willing; I couldn’t
ask for more. Thank you, Mr. Morgan, for giving me this opportunity.”
“Don’t thank me just yet. I need to make it clear to you that the secretary’s job is to serve
my needs and accommodate my various habits as much as possible. So, whatever t
say, you must execute without question, understood?”
Camila wailed, “Okay, okay, I’ll do whatever you say.”

“Very well,” Maverick replied with a smile, pushing his glasses up. “Starting tomorrow,
report to the CEO’s office. For breakfast, I like a glass of milk, a fried egg, two slices of
toast, and two slices of ham. I want to see these items on my desk before I start work.“”
Camila silently took note, but she couldn’t resist making a request of her own. “Mr.
Morgan, can I join you and Mr. Sniper for dinner tonight?”
“Hmm, we’ll see how you perform.
“What else do I need to do?”
“I want a mocha from the café across the street, with three ice cubes and no sugar or
milk. You have fifteen minutes, and the timer starts now.”
Camila muttered under her breath, forgetting everything else, and hurriedly ran out.
Maverick watched her figure and sighed softly, smiling to himself.
“Mr. Morgan seems unusually happy today, Lily remarked, glancing in the direction.
Camila had left and noticing the unusual smile on Maverick’s face. She could sense

something different about him.
Maverick didn’t hide it and simply acknowledged, “Is Christopher’s makeup done?”

A look of pleasant surprise appeared on Lily’s face. “The friend Camila brought is really
talented and daring. I’ve never seen a makeup artist dare to create such a unique and
edgy look for Christopher. But when I passed by earlier and took a look, the result was
really impressive! I have a feeling that Christopher will shine in this concert because of
this change in his makeup.”
Maverick nodded. “She’s indeed quite talented.”
“Mr. Morgan, I’m curious. Do you know Camila and her makeup artist friend?”
Maverick smiled mysteriously. “You could say we know each other. It’s all fate. What do
you think of this makeup artist?”
Lily raised her thumb. “She’s amazing.”
“Alright, I’ll find a way to recruit her to our company.”

In the makeup room, Sherry was giving Christopher the final touch–ups.

The makeup she chose for Christopher was a dark punk style, which was completely
different from the pretty boy style just now. At first glance, it seemed like he was not
the same person.
Christopher’s facial features leaned toward a manly look, with a contradictory feeling
between youth and masculinity. It was not necessary to emphasize his beauty, as it
would undermine his naturally superior facial contours.
On the other hand, Sherry took a different approach, using shadows and highlights to
further accentuate his facial contours. His whole demeanor suddenly became
mysteriously contradictory, attracting even more attention.
Lily was very satisfied. “This makeup feels more suitable for Christopher, don’t you
think, Christopher?”
Christopher was no longer the cold and indifferent person who let the makeup artist
manipulate him just now. Instead, he earnestly examined himself in the mirror.

Lily agreed, “Yes, haven’t you always wanted to sing rock? Today’s opening song is also
rock–style. With this outfit and makeup, the stage effect will definitely be amazing. The
hot search rankings for the next week have already been reserved in advance.”
Christopher was also very happy. He looked at himself in the mirror and saw Sherry still
busy doing his hairstyle behind him. He whispered, “Thank you.”
Sherry smiled back at him and said, “As long as you think it’s suitable.”
Lily’s walkie–talkie rang, “Lily, three minutes countdown, get ready to go on stage!”
“Okay, got it.”
Lily whispered, “The timing is perfect, Christopher; get ready to go on stage. Oh, Miss,
what is your name?”
“My last name is Wilson.”
