Chapter 64: Don't Worry, Mom. I'll Behave.
He then grabbed the microphone from Lisa's hand and began speaking. "Hello everyone. I'm Lucifer Reynolds. I'm looking forward to working with you all from now on.
And yes, before anyone asks, my name really is Lucifer. Don't worry, I'm not a devil or anything. My parents just have different naming senses."
A few people in the audience laughed at Lucifer's joke. And then one of them spoke up. "Hey Lucifer! How old are you?
Aren't you too young to be the Managing Director of a company?"
"Yes, I am. In fact, I just turned 19 a few months ago. But my mom thinks that I'm ready to take over this company, so I guess she knows better than I do." Lucifer replied with a smile, glancing at Lisa as he spoke.
"I know it may seem strange for such a young guy like me to suddenly become the boss of all of you. However, I want you to know that I'm going to try my best to make this work."
"Well, if Lisa says you're capable, then we have no reason to doubt you." A woman said as she let out a light chuckle.
Lucifer looked at her and smiled. "Thank you for saying that, miss. What's your name?"
"Melody. I'm a model here at the agency."
"Nice to meet you, Melody. You know, you're really hot." Lucifer said, winking at her before turning his attention to the other employees.
Most of them looked at Lucifer with surprised expressions on their faces, while a few of them chuckled at his boldness.
"What? It's true." Lucifer said with a shrug of his shoulders. "Don't think I am a pervert. Maybe I am.
But that's not the point. I'm just being honest. And besides, this is a modeling agency, right? You should all know how attractive you are.
Otherwise, you wouldn't be working here. So don't take it personally if I say you're hot. As my mom always said, you should never hide your light under a bushel." He said as he turned towards Lisa, smiling at her before continuing. "Besides, it's not like I'm trying to hit on any of you.
I'm just stating a fact."
"That's right. Lucifer is very honest when it comes to these things. If he thinks you're attractive, he'll tell you. If he doesn't like you, he'll tell you that too." Lisa said with a smile, looking at Lucifer with pride in her eyes.
"And he's right. We shouldn't hide our beauty behind fake modesty. It's important for us to embrace our sexuality and use our looks to our best advantage. And that includes showing off our bodies when we're modeling.
So please don't take anything Lucifer says as a personal insult."
"Well, I guess we'll have to get used to working under a pervert then." Melody said with a grin.
"Don't worry. You'll love working under me." Lucifer replied, winking at her again. "And I promise that I'll always treat you with respect. So long as you show me respect in return."
Upon hearing Lucifer's words, most of the female employees started smiling and whispering amongst themselves while looking at him. Some even giggled as they talked with each other.
"Anyway, I think that's enough introductions for now. We'll have plenty of time to get to know each other later." Lisa said, interrupting everyone's conversations. "Lucifer and I still have some work to do, so I'll see you all later.
Remember, I expect all of you to support Lucifer as the new Managing Director of the company. Is that understood?"
Everyone nodded their heads, acknowledging her words.
"Good. Now, get back to work. We have a lot of things to do." Lisa said before turning around and leaving the room with Lucifer.
"Thanks for that introduction, son. You did well." Lisa said as she patted Lucifer on the back.
"I just told them the truth, Mom. I am what I am, after all." Lucifer said with a shrug of his shoulders.
Lisa chuckled at Lucifer's response. "I suppose you're right. But I must say, you handled yourself very well back there. I think they all liked you.
Especially the girls."
"Well, I can't blame them. I'm a charming guy." Lucifer said, smirking as he spoke. "Anyway, let's go check out the models' profiles. I want to see who I'll be working with from now on."
"Sure. Come on, let's go to my office." Lisa said as she led Lucifer down the corridor towards her office.
It wasn't long before they entered Lisa's office and sat down at her desk.
Lisa then turned on her laptop computer and opened up the file containing all the profiles of the agency's models. "Here you go. Take a look." She said as she turned the computer towards Lucifer so that he could see the screen better.
"Wow... These girls are all hot." Lucifer exclaimed as he scanned the profiles, looking at the pictures and information about the models. "Especially Melody. She's gorgeous." He said as he looked at the photo of the girl named Melody on the screen.
"Her tits look amazing in this bikini. And those legs are to die for."
"Young man, you better keep your hands to yourself. If you want to get into any of the girls' pants, you'll have to seduce them.
And remember, if you get caught having a relationship with any of the models, it will cause a scandal and damage the reputation of this agency." Lisa warned Lucifer as she looked at him with a serious expression on her face.
"I expect you to be a responsible young man and not let your dick get the better of you. Is that clear?"
Lucifer laughed and smiled at Lisa. "Don't worry, mom. I'll behave."
"Good. Because I will not tolerate any mistakes from you." Lisa spoke, her tone firm as she continued. "I don't want my son's reputation to be ruined because of his own foolishness."
"I understand, Mom." Lucifer said, his expression becoming serious as he looked at his mother. "I promise I won't let you down."
