"Alright!"

Frederick answered and took a glance at the clock. He remembered that there were many follow-ups to do today, so he turned around and searched through his stuff for the documents he needed.

When Alicia saw that it was Frederick's secretary, Doris, who entered the room, she unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. In the presence of outsiders, even if they were familiar with each other, she felt the need to respect him. Just as she was about to excuse herself, Frederick suddenly spoke.

"Doris, what are you holding?"

Only then did Alicia notice that Doris was holding a rectangular box in her hand. She looked away and swallowed back her words.

Judging by the looks of the packaging, it should be some sort of painting.

Doris looked down at her hands and explained.

"Oh, Mr. Clements, this package is for you! You've recently been on a business trip, so someone directly sent it to the office. The security guard brought it up to the office. I saw that it was for you, so I decided to bring it to you!"

"For me? Who sent it?"

Frederick was a little confused. He didn't remember ordering anything recently, especially something so huge.

"There's only a shipping address and a phone number. There's no other information on the sender, but it's written.... private and confidential! Along with your name and the secretary office's number!" After thinking for a while, Frederick spoke.

"Put it down. Why don't you go ahead and greet Mr. Michaels first? Can you also inform the director of the sales department and ask him to bring his technicians? I'll be right there."

"Yes!"

Doris carefully placed the package by the wall, turned around, and left.

Frederick stood up and briefly glanced at Alicia.
