The office area of Eccentric Corporation wasn't extensive, merely spanning two floors. Upon reaching the office via the elevator, the person in charge opened the door for her to the office. "The boss is waiting for you inside."

Josie stood at the doorway for a moment, frozen in place. She didn't go without doing her homework. Rumors about the enigmatic owner of Eccentric Corporation, who had never shown his face before, were rife. Yet, the fact that she had the chance to meet him so easily seemed somewhat unreasonable.

The person in charge saw her standing still. "Ms. Warren?"

Only then did Josie regain her senses, stepping into the room in her high heels.

The office was clearly not the epitome of cleanliness. Clutter and paperwork were strewn all over the place. She deftly navigated through the obstacles, pouring all her energy into seeking any signs of human presence.

"Hello?"

It was eerily empty, even some echoes could be heard.

"Is anyone there?" Josie clutched the documents Hector had given her tightly, feeling somewhat ready to leave.

Just then, a groggy grunt echoed from the corner, the sound of a man who had just awakened from sleep.

Josie followed the sound, and she was taken aback to see a man struggling to sit up from under a pile of documents. "Yes," the man answered.

Josie's brows furrowed, and she doubted her own eyes. She quickly stepped forward, brushing aside the loose hair on his forehead.

There and then, her suspicion was confirmed.

"Morgan? Why is it you?" she asked.

He was still feeling sleepy, lazily leaning back, a smile playing on his lips as he said, "Well, how else would you get to meet Eccentric Corporation's boss?"
