Alexander did quite find his wordplay and dirty-minded implications on 'cocks' to be quite interesting. Fortunately, he wasn't one to publicize most of his nicknamings and just wanted to find his own inner labelings to things.
Anyways, Cocky Cox's conjectures might have just been a joke towards a little boy that she believed to just be an employee's visiting child.
Perhaps she said all that Mrs. Creed stuff just because a boy doubted her prettiness. Anyways, girls were weird around the topic of beauty so the conjecture might not be wrong.
Besides, if she truly was scheming to use her beauty to topple the entire business, why would she share it so easily with a kid? However random and inconsequential the kid may be, how could she be so sure that the kid was not random or inconsequential at all?
Most children have a knack for being tattletales, how sure was Miss Courteney Cox of everything that she could simply divulge her "master" plan.
Surely, Cocky Cox wouldn't be here final designation in his head and her 'PRETTY' and Mrs. Creed plan was just playful talk towards a boy who doubted her looks.
It would seem that he might not be far off as well with the supposed Cocky Cox explaining her earlier weirdness. "Big sister, is just messing with you little boy? I'm still a young girl with a big career ahead of her, why would I marry or be the girlfriend of a mysterious person I haven't met?"
Of course, Courteney also realized a blunder she made as she had just blurted things out to a random boy who was just trying to help her out. Fortunately, she had some quick wits and could still salvage her blabbery mistake.
"I'm just a recent Alexander Creed fan and want to know more about the man himself. Being at this fine establishment where he mostly does his work is quite exciting in itself." Her current countenance wasn't far off from a fangirl and she even added out a whisper that may or may not be a joke. "Of course, if he is my type, then I'll probably go for the Mrs. Creed plan."
"This pretty big sis that you just met is out on the lookout for the perfect boyfriend and Mr. Alexander Creed might just be the one." Miss Courteney acted as cutely as she can and even added a hinting wink. "Can you help a big sis out?"
Whether her previous or new claims were a joke or not, at least she cleaned up most of her mess with this move. At least, one can already tell that she has ulterior motives for being here.
Courteney was still in her wink but she was rejoicing as she may have just fooled this little boy in front of him.
------
Of course, her "abrupt shifting" tactic might work on any other kid but not a kid with an adult soul.
Whether it was to truly be Mrs. Creed, exercise fan-girliness, or something that is most likely related to her career, Alexander can still have his countermeasure for whatever it is.
Anyways, he didn't want to oblige any further with her comic-al mannerisms though. "Big sis, as you say you are. Why don't we just go to Creed Animations? There's no point in haranguing a little guy like me any further? If all works out well, you will be formally introduced to whoever Mr. Creed you want to see."
"Really?!" Courteney doubted.
"Aren't you looking for Creed Animations for a job or something?" Alexander dished an undeniable fact about him and his grandfather. "It has Creed on it and any of the Creed bosses wouldn't be far from it. Your pretty much a Creed employee for the most part now, so getting to know a Creed would just be a matter of reach."
That was no lie as he is a literal Creed and within arm's reach of her.
"Great." Courteney clapped from expectation. "Can you lead big sister to Creed Animations now?"
-----
Anyways, the confrontation between outward expressiveness and thoughtful schemes played out as it is.
As they walked towards the back of CREED and towards the animation studio, at least, it became a normal tour guiding sort of scenario.
Since the boy was knowledgeable about the entire place, the woman simply asked whatever important thing she thought was needed to be known.
The woman asked why the animations were in another building and the boy simply explained that they didn't fit anymore.
The woman asked why it couldn't fit and the boy answered with what specialization each CREED floor had and why animation needed much spacious accommodation.

It mostly hovered around those limited topics though as the duration of their walk to the animation building was not long.
The boy led her in and the woman simply followed her accommodating and well-informed little guide.
The walk and talk ensued but it was now mostly around the animation studio and whatever function that its six major compartments were for.
The woman was surprised to see many people hard at work and focusing on drawing in special places. It was hard to believe that four specialized areas were doing the same thing.
At least, the boy did not skimp out on giving her some rudimentary lessons on the process of animation and the woman got to superficially know why things around this building were like so.
Eventually, they reached the sandwiched compartment where the woman's destination was for. One side was a compartment for the pre-production process while the other was sound.
Either way, being sandwiched in between these sandwich compartments was just the perfect spot as even the boy had no idea where to go first.
They were a voice cast but a briefing still needed to be held for the most part.
-----
The duo eventually met with the delegators that would show them the ropes around things.
It just so happened that Seasoned Hayao, his translator, and Old Sullivan came as the group to kickstart the voice acting work and everything eventually ensued.
"Alex, I see that you've brought and met a lady. I do hope you were socializing as a normal boy should?" Old Sullivan questioned with sternness to his grandson while turning to the surprised lady. "If the files aren't wrong, then you should be Miss Cox. I do apologize for not accomodating your visit quite well but I do hope my grandson has been a nice impromptu guide?"
Courteney was surprised to see the boy's guardian now at this juncture but she also noticed that he might be an old company employee that accommodates voice talents. Anyways, she can't be rude. "It's okay sir. The little guy has not been any trouble at all and has been quite helpful in keeping me up to speed with things around here."
"Mhm. The boy is learning." Old Sullivan hummed in appreciation. Of course, his gentlemanly British habits kicked up.
"Oh right! How rude of me..." Greetings and introductions were part of Old Sullivan's etiquette. "My name is Sullivan Creed, the boy's grandfather. The other fellow beside me is Mr. Hayao Miyazaki. We will most likely be working together to make Dragonball happen."
"Oh hello hello. I am Courteney Cox. I just hope that I can give justice to Bulma's character well." Courteney returned the favor in haste. She was actually greeting the big boss that she was looking out for.
It would seem that little brother's information about meeting Creed bosses was accurate... but wait... little brother's name was Alex...
Mr. Sullivan Creed in front of her was his grandfather...
Alex... Alexander... Alexander Creed...
"Eeeehhh!!!"
Courteney connected the dots and realization lead to her shock! Her pretty face turned 'eeh' from the fact that she didn't know how to process things.
Didn't she just tell the boy that she would be Mrs. Creed? Even though it was a mishap and a joke, the little boy must have gotten a gist of things.
How would such a boy feel... if a young woman such as herself... confessed to being his... father's lover?
It was at this moment that she knew... she fucked up!
