3 YEARS LATERThere were a number of hundred directors in the large meeting room and seated in the head chair was the almighty Oliver Haywood, the most strict and no nonsense boss in the whole of H city. No one made a single sound as they all fixed their gaze to the screen in front. The only voice that could be heard was that of the person giving a presentation. Even as the person is given a presentation, he tries not to be too loud but audible enough for others to hear.This is because before the meeting had started the cold hearted boss had warned everyone not to disturb the little miss Haywood that was sleeping on his shoulder.Who brings a three year old to a crucial meeting like this?Oliver Haywood doesWho fires and prevents employees from getting a job elsewhere when they make a tiny mistake of waking his precious daughter?Oliver Haywood doesThe director wiped the sweat in his forehead and sighed in silence before proceeding with the presentation.

Nuella looked outside the window as the plane landed slowly to the ground. She smiled and felt so happy to be back home, due to work she has been away for three weeks and it was so hard since she had to leave her child and her angry husband who was pissed that she had traveled so far and long. She was sure that now that she is back he will not let her travel so far again because of business.Nuella felt like laughing when she remembered how his face was when they were doing a video call yesterday. She had jokingly told him she would not be able to return today and he became angry that she had to immediately rephrase her statement.

It's 10 pm and Oliver is not yet back, Nuella tried his number twice but he did not pick. That was new because Oliver would pick her call at the first ring, she remembered him saying he will hang out with Alex and David so she decided to give David a call and after the first ring David picked.“Nuella”“Hey David, is Oliver with you, he is not picking”David who was standing outside the office of Alison looked towards Oliver, how is he to tell Nuella that Oliver fought Alex? that they had to take Alex to the hospital because of it.“He is fine and will be ho………” He was not able to finish his statement when Alison collected the phone from his ear.“Alison did not say anything to her…….”Alison gave him a cold look before walking away to go speak to Nuella.“Hello, hello David are you there?

“What do you mean by the meeting was canceled!” Rómulo’ shouted at Nuella’s assistant who just came to inform him that the crucial meeting that made him come to the company was suddenly cancelled.He had come for the crucial meeting but was suddenly told that it was canceled-."My granddaughter wouldn't just cancel such an important meeting!!""Sirrrr........sir, it was Mr Haywood, her husband that called off the meeting on her behalf" Alma, Nuella's assistant said as she shivered at the cold gaze of the old master."Oliver did what!!”“Sir he called and canceled her meeting”Romulo gritted his teeth “Hand me my phone James”James immediately handed him his cell phone and he put a call across Nuella.

Soon the father and daughter took over the entire space in the kitchen as they started their baking section. Cia occasionally jumps up in excitement as she is about to learn something new. In her school they had taken her whole class on an excursion to a bakery and they got to see how different cookies and other pastries were made, it fascinated her greatly that she vowed to learn it. She sat on top of a kitchen counter far from the oven and cooking gas, her father had told her she needed to be far away from it for safety reasons. She sat there and watched as her father got everything ready that they will be using for baking.The chefs, including some maids and Rosa, stood outside the kitchen and peeped through the little opening on the door as they watched their master for the first time since they started working for him in the kitchen about to bake. It was a great shock to them. If anyone tells them that their almighty boss, the most powerful business man in the city, will one day
