"Sweet of you both to say." Stella responded, more than willing to accept the positive reinforcement from both Fletcher and Yasmin, though the latter was more touchy feely than Stella generally preferred. She was right though: the work was at least double, it couldn't be avoided.

She shut the current filing cabinet drawer right as Fletcher leaned up on the cubicle wall. "I plan to be indispensable." Her gaze flickered down to the man's ring finger, her lip quirked slightly in some private amusement and then the new arrival spoke and Stella's attention was drawn that way.

Pleasure was hers? Back in order? Stella came to the same conclusion as Yassi. Simone Krafft had to be Kendra's replacement, or a temporary fixer at least.

She waited for Yassi to finish speaking before offering her own name, her French accent playing with her words, "Stella Jarsdel. Personal Assistant to the department head of transportation," she smiled a little, 'cause how ridiculous did that sound when there wasn't anyone to personally assist?

She opened another drawer and kept filing, no reason not to get her work done while chatting, especially when there was so much of it.
