Marcus was in his office, going through some documents presented to him by the secretary when he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in, please," he said, his gaze still fixed on the papers.
The door swung open, and a female staff walked in.
"Good morning, Mr. Marcus," she greeted, her tone firm and exuding confidence.
"Good morning, Catherine. How did the plan go?" he asked with a tone mixed with curiosity and anticipation, focusing all attention towards her.
The lady smiled and cleared her throat. "Fantastic, Mr. Marcus. In fact, it was as if she was with us when the arrangement was made," she said.
"Really?" Marcus questioned with a creased forehead. "Are you being serious?" He swallowed the lump formed in his throat and sat up.
"So tell me exactly how it happened. Did the manager make sure she left with those items I mentioned?"
