He was going to make it. She could just tell. Darn.

Was it unfair of her to be secretly wishing for the failure of her own client? Or was she just being a chicken? Maybe Shelley was right - she was running ‘man-scared’. Maybe her trepidation had little to do with Rico’s being a client. Maybe she was just scared of the man himself.

She shook her head. What the heck was wrong with her? It was her job to tame this tycoon. That was what the corporation was paying her for. So how could she be scared of him?

Snap out of this Asia, and get started on a plan to tame the social side of this beast. You’re the one with the PhD in Psychology, not him. Now, come on. Start acting like it.

After that pep talk to herself Asia felt ready to meet ‘the client’. Two weeks had passed since she’d given Rico his stack of assignments and now it was time to assess his progress. She’d started out wishing that he would fail, just to buy herself those extra two weeks before she’d have to worry about his invitation. But no, she would go into this meeting wishing him the best. She was a professional and she would not let personal desires take precedence over professional responsibility. Whatever the outcome she was ready.

When Asia arrived at the offices of Megalos Shipping she did not go immediately to Rico’s floor. Instead, she stopped in to see Cynthia Haye, the woman who had hired her.

“Welcome, Miss Miller,” the woman gushed and ushered her into her office. “It is so good to see you.”

Asia smiled as she entered the room. “I assume that means you have good news for me?”

“Please, please, sit.” The woman pulled a chair out and waved her visitor into it. Then she bustled round the desk that looked much too large for her. “I don’t know how to thank you,” she began. On her face was a broad smile and she looked eager to share her good news. “I have never in my life seen such a dramatic change in a person. And a change in a positive direction at that.”

“What have you observed?”

“It started some weeks back with the revised incentive program with the departments.” Cynthia put her pen to her lip, looking thoughtful.

“We started seeing an upswing in sales and with that an improvement in Rico’s mood. That’s easy enough to explain, I guess. But then this past week something about him changed.” She frowned. “I can’t quite put my finger on it but all I know is, instead of scowls we’re getting smiles and instead of roars of anger in the conference room we’re actually having discussions.” She turned a confused face to Asia. “What in the world did you do to him?”

Asia laughed. “I simply gave him a greater awareness of group dynamics and then I provided him with an outlet for his tension. It’s simple. All he needed was balance.”

“Well, however you got him to that state of balance all I can say is, we’re grateful.
