WRITER’S POVBefore Lawrence called Veronica, she had already seen the news of his alleged affairs.Knowing how his lover had treated her the last time, she was supposed to be indifferent about whatever the media did to them but she couldn’t help but wonder if Lawrence was alright. It will be a hassle if the identity of his lover gets revealed.After about an hour, her phone beeped and it happened to be a text from Lawrence.Talk about the devil, She thought as she read through the text.He had asked she met him at home. Veronica was surprised, wondering why he would want to meet at home.“Shouldn’t he be with his lover right now...” she thought out loud.Perhaps he just need me for damage control as usual. She scoffed, grabbed her purse and started out of her office.As she headed to take the elevator, she noticed the unusual stares from the workers. They whispered within themselves while looking at her but will pretend to shush when she looks at them.That’s all they do, gossip. Dam
How the fuck didn’t I realize this?“Sir?” Jessie called him, “Is anything wrong?”Seeing him burst into laughter abruptly had surprised him.Lawrence shook his head as his laughter gradually died down. “Take me to her.” he said with a clenched jaw. He swore to deal with this reporter mercilessly.Yes, I should use her and set an example to the other reporters, he reasoned.They got down from the car and headed into the café.Lawrence and Jessie stylishly walked past a cluster of people they had suspected to be the reporters and trotted into the café.Jessie led him to the conspicuous corner of the café where they joined a table with two women seated around it.“Hello director Lawrence,” The taller woman amongst the two had quickly stood to her feet and greeted Lawrence when he took off his glasses.“Sit, sit,” Lawrence waved dismissively as he took the seat across.“So, you must be the one that took the picture?” Lawrence questioned as he starred seriously at her.The woman blinked i
“Mother!” Veronica squealed excitedly the moment she saw her mother.“Oh my! Look how dazzling my beautiful daughter is glowing!” Mrs Nicholas grinned and pulled her in for a hug.“Hey! You didn’t see me? okay, so you missed only mum right?” Veronica’s sister feigned sadness as Veronica hugged their mother tight.Veronica pulled away from her mother’s arms and faced her sister, Matilda. She frowned and rolled her eyes.Why should I miss you? you should have been the one married to that jerk and not me.She was going to slam at her sister but instead the frown in her face faded into a big smile.“I missed you too sis!”“Silly girl, now you realize it?” Her sister pulled her in with a big grin.“Home has been pretty quiet since you left...” she said as they slowly disengaged from the hug.“Yes, we miss you,” Mrs Nicholas added.Veronica made a face. “Right? That is why you guys should have let me stay with you, so should I come back home? urh, urh ? urh...mom, I should come back home u
WRITER’S POV“Sir, about the Williams Motors Project. I would like to send off the signed documents now.” Lawrence’s secretary, Miss Jones said as she stopped in front of Lawrence’s desk.“Ah, right...” Lawrence pulled open the drawer where he had kept the documents for the project.He stared longer at it, still uncomfortable with just signing it off. He already asked Jessie to find something, any evidence at all he could show his father to prove his suspicious.He glanced at his wrist-watch, it was past an hour since Jessie left to check for the last time. He just has to wait for a little more.“Sir, is there a problem?” Miss Jones asked.Lawrence gave a shake of head. “You may go back to work; I will let you know when I sign on it.”“I’m sorry, but I must send the document to the office in charge very soon.”Lawrence thought for a while, “How soon? If I’m not mistaken, the board meeting will be in errm,” he glanced at his wrist watch before he continued, “In exactly two hours... Si
WRITER’S POVWILLIAMS GROUP MEETING ROOMSTATUS: BOARD MEMBERS MEETING IN PROGRESS.“Chairman Williams appoints Director Oliver Williams in charge of Williams Motor production,” the meeting anchor started. There was a scanty clap from some of the people in the meeting. Oliver Williams nodded towards them a thin smile. He couldn’t have been more pleased. It was a moment he had waited for.“However, while Chairman Williams has given a go ahead, all that remained is the signature of director Lawrence. Erm, Director Lawrence? Care to let the board members know what’s keeping you from leaving your signature on the project?”Okay, calm down, Lawrence. It’s now or never...Lawrence felt the gaze of almost all the men settle on him. He took silent deep breaths then he pushed the microphone to his reach and spoke into it. “Urh, forgive my reluctance on signing off on the project. However, I have my reasons.”There was a bit of murmur amongst the men.“What reasons do you have, director Lawrenc
WRITER’S POVLawrence groaned as he stretched his arms upward causing his joints and bones to crack. It was weekend and a time he was supposed to rest but of course resting wasn’t for him. He had no idea this was what he had bargained for the moment he was given the Williams Motors Project.It was already three weeks since then but it still felt like he just started and Lawrence could boldly count the number of times he had managed a good night rest. Very few. If he wasn’t inspecting the machine parts in the engine room for the new cars, he was holding meetings with different groups involved in the project. He barely had time to have a proper meal.He yawned tiredly and stood from his seat. when he glanced at the wall clock across the room, he saw it was already past midnight; exactly 1: am. He sighed as he switched off the lamp and trotted towards the bedroom, rubbing his tired eyes as he walked.Veronica was already deep asleep when he got in.He chuckled lightly despite his tired s
WRITER’S POVJust like his father said, Director Mason met Lawrence and it didn’t take a lot of time before everything was fixed. The rest of the day was as uneventful as it could be and Lawrence didn’t realize it was late in the evening until his secretary rapped on the door and walked in.“Sir, will you be spending the night here in your office? Should I get you a cup of coffee for the night?” Miss Jones asked.“No, don’t worry about the coffee. I won’t be staying here for the night.” Lawrence answered without looking up from his phone. He glanced at his golden wristwatch and continued looking into his phone. A picture of Bianca was showing in the screen. He would zoom it in and back again. He was missing her terribly. She said she will be returning soon but didn’t mention the exact day. He was dying to hold her in his arms and kiss her. If not for this project, he would have booked the next available flight and went over to her. That was how much he missed and wanted her.Miss jone
