The view was pretty, she had to admit. It looked like a fairly interesting neighbourhood, and she wondered how much of it was magic, and how much Muggle. Rubbing right up next to each other -- was it as straightforward as it looked on the surface, or did the Messrs Summerby have a detailed infrastructure in place on their properties? That would be intriguing to find out, she admitted to herself, looking at the building's façade while she straightened, smoothed, and made sure everything was in place.
Then she started up to the door, let herself in, and looked for the reception desk before making her way over to it. "I'm Miss Bulstrode," she said, curling her fingers around the strap of her purse a little more tightly as the receptionist looked up to meet her eyes. "I'm here to meet Mr Summerby; he's expecting me." Did she imagine a wince at her last name? Well, it didn't matter if her name meant something or not; she was here for a reason, and she wasn't going to let someone she didn't know taint the calm Dora'd helped her find. As she was offered a seat, which she took, and a cup of tea, which she declined, she took another assessing look around, noting the lines and the décor in addition to the people moving in and out.
Interesting. She knew the company's name fairly well due to the range of interests they covered, but she'd never had reason to know well anyone who was involved with it. Maybe that would change, after today. She hoped, anyway. The research she'd done to prepare had been mostly fascinating (the rest of it over her head), and while she knew perfectly well an office manager didn't really travel, she couldn't help hoping that if she were hired...maybe she could go along once in a while. It was something she envied Blaise, the opportunity to see new places while he worked.
He seemed taller in person, she thought in surprise as Richard Summerby came into the room at precisely 10 o'clock. How odd. She stood immediately, and offered him her hand when he drew close.
"Mr Summerby, I'm Millicent Bulstrode. Good morning."
