Private Finished Signing a Contract With the Devil

It was almost eleven o'clock in the morning when Zora looked at the clock again. She had started the day early, a little after seven-thirty so that she could get through the backlog of new clients. However, despite her good intention, she was still swamped with work. Each contract and its conditions needed to be double-checked before she could invest the clients' money abroad and in the narrow reality.

Moving the companys's corporate headquarters to the liminal space, while keeping the bulk of the company and its main branches in the space beyond had been a challenging move fraught with difficulties. Thankfully, the Manta Carlos based company had been capable enough to straddle those hurdles with a lot of ingenuity and patience.

Seeing that it was almost time to go over Mathos Sandoval's client portfolio with his assistant, Zora decided to grab herself a hot and very fragrant chai tea and a butter croissant before she headed back to one of the offices they used for meeting with clients.

"Ms. Cromwell," Zoraida smiled as she greeted Mathos's personal assistant who was waiting in the reception area.

"So nice to see you again. I do hope Mr.Silver has offered you a beverage while you were waiting, and if not, is there anything can I get for you?" she inquired as she led the younger blue-haired woman to the room they used to talk about people's investments and portfolios.

"Coffee, tea, water? We even have some freshly squeezed orange juice of that's more your thing?" Zora explained as the entered the office with its comfy leather chairs and small boardroom table.

"That's good to hear," Zora gave Levina a smile and firm handshake before she led her back to the conference room that they would be using.

"I am afraid coffee is my one true weakness," she replied. "It's like my day doesn't start until without it," she acknowledged, making small talk as they entered the room and made themselves comfortable.

Waiting until Levina took a seat, Zora then proceeded to make herself comfortable at the table, checking to see all the folders with Mathos Sandoval's investments and personal information were there like she had asked.

"Of course, we can," Zoraida replied letting Levina take the lead for a bit. She liked to let her clients lead, it often told her how to proceed. Some insisted on complete formality, others were more down to Earth and enjoyed a more intimate and less formal approach.

Zoraida was not at all put off by Levina's attitude. She was quite used to dealing with awkward clients who disliked chit chat or that preferred not to talk about themselves.

However, her reasons for it made the witch raise an eyebrow. Zora couldn't help but wonder what firm Mathos Sandoval had dealt with previously because she had yet to have a client get tired or testy discussing their investment portfolios.

In fact, the only time such things tended to happen were with situations like bigger acquisitions where one party was not 100% on board or when something unforeseen happened like there were changes to the conditions originally proposed.

Waiting for Levina to finish, Zora opened Mathos investment portfolios before addressing his assistant.

"Yes... Let's see," Zora started as she took a moment to look over everything again, comparing the contracts against her notes. "I do have a few questions," she said as she began asking Levina questions about where, when, and how much... some questions were to confirm data others were to fill in any missing information.

Zoraida finished the last of her questions and then signed off on the paperwork, adding her own personal company seal to the documents in question so that copies could be taken and the original filed away later.

Glancing across the conference table when Levina asked about getting to know her better, Zora smiled, rather surprised by the request.

"Of course," Zora said as she placed the papers to one side. "Are you interested in business?" she asked politely.
