Teresa couldn't take this sudden turn of events lightly. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she leaned forward, voice firm yet curious.
"From the looks of it, you were prepared to assign her as my assistant from the very beginning. Why?"
Eleanor sighed and leaned back, crossing her legs with a calm grace. "Yes, that's correct. There were several reasons. First, you genuinely needed some assistance. Even though you have the support of an entire conglomerate, your personal workload has been growing exponentially. I had planned to assign more assistants to you, but so far, she is the only one I found fitting."
She paused, folding her hands neatly on her lap. "Second, she's not just any employee. She's an experienced lawyer with basic combat training. Her family background checks out… clean and trustworthy. And most importantly, she's single. No personal distractions, no entanglements."
Teresa nodded slowly, absorbing the explanation as Eleanor continued.
