“Dad”. Richard called to Mr Jones who was sitting on the chair with pouty lips.“What is it? He asked with a nonchalant voice.Ignoring his father's bored look, he asked, “Are we really going to turn a blind eye to Matthew's behavior over Rachel”. Smirking devilishly, Mr Jones replied to him, “says who? He deserves some lesson”. Mr Jones muttered angrily.“You must have something in mind right? Richard asked, making Mr Jones chuckled.“Definitely son”. He said with raised brows as he gazed at his son.Richard smiled as he stared at his father with curiosity on his face.“Come on dad, you can tell me. I may be of help”. Richard said quickly as he was eager to hear his father’s plan.Chuckling, Mr Jones leaned his head and waved for Richard to also do the same.Richard nodded his head, and leaned his head in the direction of his father, as he waited for him to speak.But after some time, he still didn’t hear anything, so he looked at his father and complained, “Dad, are you playing me
“Are you ready? Mr Jones asked.“Very ready dad”. Rachel replied as they came down from the car.They got to the company three minutes ago.There was no need to use the private elevator, so they decided to use the lobby, which was packed with the staff.When they entered the company, it was bustling with activities .Everyone was focused on their work.They were highly trained by an expert before starting their work, so they know the do’s and don’t of the company.The receptionist who was busy with her work was the first person to notice them.So she clapped her hands to get the attention of others, which worked.They all raised their heads in curiosity as they frowned their faces at her behavior.Just then, they heard her loud voice, “let us welcome the new CEO of Helix Enterprise “. She said as she pointed toward Rachel who was in the middle of Richard and Mr Jones.They were surprised because most of them did not see them when they entered since they were too focused on their work.
Earlier, when Mr Jones and Mr Davis entered, the heard distance murmuring coming from the shareholders who were complaining about the delay.With anger, Mr Jones pushed the door open as he entered with Mr Davis following behind him.When the shareholders saw them, they immediately shut their mouth.Staring at them all with a cold look, Mr Jones spoke up, “what were you all saying earlier? Come on tell me I would love to be part of the conversation “. He said, making them smile stiffly.Giving Mr Jones a fawning look, they didn't dare say a word as they all sat there mute.Although they were shareholders in the company, they don’t have the rights to question Mr Jones since he was the biggest shareholder.The Jones family has a share of seventy percent alone,while Mr Davis and Harris who were both the second largest shareholders hold a ten percent each, making it twenty percent which is owed by the Davis family.Then the remaining ten were shared among the rest and branches of the Jones
Smiling, Rachel responded, “thank you”. Mr Jones nodded in approval as he began his speech.“As you all know, I started this company with my wife, and since she passed on , I have been running it for decades alone. It's finally time for me to step down and have a good rest”. He said with a nostalgic smile on his face and continued.“As a father, I must say, I’m proud to have my lovely children by my side. My son has proven himself capable of building and running his company himself without the help of anyone, and I must say I’m really proud of him”. Mr Jones said as he stared at Richard with a calm smile on his face, making Richard chuckle.“Thank you dad”. He mouthed to his father, who nodded his head repeatedly.“And as for my daughter, as you all know, with just a single proposal she sent to the company, it has been approved by international companies, which can help but make me more proud. With that alone, she has proven that she is more than capable of running this company, bet
“Turn the camera around, I want to see”. Olivia demanded.“Alright my queen”. Rachel said, making Olivia giggle.Turning the back camera, Rachel started showing her around the office.“Oh My God, it’s so pretty and huge”. She said with a gasp.“I know right”. Rachel said as she continued showing her around the office.“Big bro, what is this door for? Rachel asked as she came across the door.She had not opened it yet to check what was inside it.Richard, who was pressing his phone raised his head up as he stared at the door Rachel was talking about.“Oh that? He asked.“Yes bro, what is in there? Rachel nodded her head and asked.Giving her a mischievous look, Richard replied, “why don’t you open it and take a look”.“I’m scared there might be something inside, so I’m definitely not opening it”. Laughing hard at his sister’s words, Richard answered, “Why?, there’s nothing to be afraid of though”. “You look suspicious. Why don’t you open it yourself? Rachel asked with a sweet smile.
Actually, she was not that dumb. With his body language and the way he behaves around her, she has a feeling that he also likes her, but she’s afraid to ask.Sighing in frustration, Olivia stared at his face again, before closing her eyes.Shortly after, you could hear her breath from the phone.Richard who was resting for a while finally opened his eyes, he groggily sat up and stared around for a while, that was when he saw his sister, who was also sleeping on the bed.Laughing at his sister, he was about to leave the bed, when he noticed the phone in his sister’s hand.Gently removing the phone from her hand, he stared at the pretty angel who was in a deep sleep.Using his hand, he traced her face as he sighed.Rachel, who had already woken up, pretended to be asleep.When Richard was taking the phone, she was already awake, because she hadn't gone deep in her sleep.She waited to see Richard’s action before opening her eyes.“When will you notice my love for you? Richard asked soft
“Welcome Mrs Freda”. Rose, who was now the director of the school, greeted, as she touched Rapheal’s hair.Smiling, Freda didn’t correct her words and said, “I heard what happened”. “We are so sorry ma, please be rest assured that it’s not going to repeat itself again”. Rose bowed her head and apologized with a sincere look.She really felt sorry for Rapheal, but now she was happy to know that he has someone powerful backing him up, that means no more bullying from any student or teacher.“I hope so”. Freda said to Rose before squatting to Rapheal’s height.“Mummy is going right now, continue being a good boy, alright”. She said to him with her hands on his shoulder.Richard gave her a sweet smile as he nodded his head, “ok mum”. “That is my baby”. Rose said and ruffled his hair, making him pout his lips.“Mum, stop scattering my hair”. He complained to her as he tried to arrange it.“Alright baby, I will stop”. She said as she removed his hand and arranged his hair back to normal a
“Get me one coffee and cappuccino, with some pastries”. He said and stared at Freda, “do you need anything else?Shaking her head, Freda replied, “that will do”. “Alright, please hold on, I will be with your order shortly”. The waiter said and left them.“When did you arrive? Freda asked softly.“A while ago”. Hilary lied, he had actually been here since.Immediately after he left the house after eating breakfast, he drove to the cafe.“I’m sorry for being late”. Freda apologized .Chuckling, Hilary spoke, “you don’t need to, besides I didn’t wait for long”. “Even though”. Freda pouted her lips and told him, making him gulp his saliva hard as he stared at her pouty lips.“I should have stuck to the time by coming early”. Freda said , but she noticed that his attention was not there, so she had to knock the table twice, which brought him to reality.“Hey, are you ok? She asked with concern in her voice, which Hilary didn’t fail to catch.“Is she worried about me? He asked himself in
Rachel drove to Harris' company, she didn’t bother calling him to inform him of her arrival because she wanted to surprise him.So she parked her car and came down from the car, when she felt a sharp pain in her stomach.Her face went pale immediately. her stomach was hurting her so bad, and she really needed to eat.She stared at the company, and finally came to a conclusion.She will give him his coat first, then rush out to get food.With that, she took the bag and headed straight to the company.When she got there, she went to the receptionist and told her, “please is Harris around? The receptionist and those present there were shocked, as they all stared at the bold woman, who dared to call their boss by his name.Not minding the stares coming from them, Rachel asked, “is there any problem”. Just then, they heard a clicking of a heel, they all looked at the entrance, and saw that it was Elizabeth.With a haughty look, she worked to the receptionist, and asked arrogantly, “Is br
Right now, nothing is more important to him than preparing himself well for his date. He was really grateful for his sister, for this opportunity, if not he would have still been crushing from afar and wouldn’t have the courage to ask her out for a date. Although Olivia is not aware of the mix up, he doesn’t care. Right now, he was going to make use of this good opportunity, to finally make Olivia his. Meanwhile, Rachel left her office with the paper bag and headed to the elevator. She decided to use the normal elevator today instead of her personal elevator. The Reason was because she wanted to scan the lobby and also inspect the workers to see if they were working or slacking off. After going to the ground floor, she walked for a bit, when she was turned around by someone. With anger, she looked at the culprit and saw that it was Matthew. But she was too lazy to speak with him, so she just hissed and left him, who was still standing there with a stupid expression. She bet he
After watching the meeting through her system, Rachel was bored staying alone in her office.She had finished her work quite early today, so she felt like leaving the office for a while. Thinking through, she pouted her lips when she realized she had nowhere to go.She had wanted to go to her brother’s company, to stay with him, but then, she removed the thought, because she remembered that she was going to call him now to tell him about the date she had set up for him and Olivia.“So bored! She lamented as she sighed heavily.Just then, her gaze landed on the coat lying pretty on her couch, which made her eyes lit up.She suddenly has an idea of where to go.“Good job, Rachel”. She praised herself with her brows raised.“I need to call Richard before I leave”. She spoke out as she took her phone from the desk and dialed her brother's number.Rachel frowned her face, when the call rang, but it was not picked up, so she had no choice but to dial it again.The result was still the same,
Concealing her happiness, she cleared her throat and said, “I miss you too Livia, why don’t I make it up to you? “Argh”. Olivia screamed and asked, “Really babe, hope you are not pulling my legs? “Of course not babe, I’m going to send you the address later in the day”. Rachel muttered. “You are the best baby, hope the bills is on you? Olivia couldn’t help but ask. “What a sly question, but yes, it’s on me”. Rachel said but thought, “definitely on big bro”. “I love you baby”. Olivia said with a happy voice, making Rachel smile. She was about to answer her, when she got an incoming call, she checked the screen and saw that it was Imelda calling her. “Hey babe, I’m going to call you later”. Rachel uttered. Pursing her lips, Olivia complained, “Are you busy? “Not really, I got a call from my secretary “. She replied. “Oh, it must be important. Anyway I will be waiting for the address”. After saying it, she disconnected the call without waiting for Rachel to say a word, which mad
After hours of trying to come up with something new, it was already time.Other company representatives arrived and were all waiting in the conference room.Rachel knew she was supposed to make her presence known , but she doesn’t want to spoil the fun of seeing the disbelieving look on Matthew’s face when he sees her. So she still sent her secretary Imelda and personal assistant Samuel with the planning team to represent her, while she waited in her office and watched the outcome.Yes , CCTV cameras are installed and present in every corner of the office, and only her, her father, her brother and the security team have access to it.After setting her system properly, she relaxed on her back on her office chair, as she scanned the conference room which is showing in her system.With the look of the people present, she made a guess of five companies present, but she was wrong because she miscalculated.She decided to count properly, which she did and got seven companies instead.Scoff
Feeling lost, he saw a phone in his front, so he stared at Emily, who spoke up, “sir maybe you should try using my phone”.She didn’t give him her phone because she cared for him, but instead, she wanted to be done with this and go back to the office to rest.Thinking that she has not even had breakfast yet made her curse him in her mind.With hope of going to the Helix company around nine, she had already made plans to eat her breakfast by eight, but Matthew's eagerness spoiled it”.Collecting the phone from her hand, he quickly punched in Rachel’s number and dialed it, and as he had expected, it rang, which made him certain that she had indeed blocked him.He waited patiently for it to be answered, but it just disconnected after ringing for a while.Matthew was not angry, instead, he dialed the number the second time, and as luck was on his side, it was answered on the fourth ring.“Rachel speaking”. Rachel who was still reviewing documents in her office picked up the call and said.
Matthew was gritting his teeth in anger as he stared at the content, “What’s the meaning of this? He asked angrily.Samuel who heard the anger in his voice just smiled as he gave him a blank expression, “are you blind? Can’t you see what it's all about”.Trying to calm his temper down, he was about to lash out, when Emily spoke up.She knew her boss was bad at words, so she decided to butt in.Unaware of the cold look Matthew gave her when he was interrupted, Emily cleared her throat and spoke out, “I’m sorry, this must have been a misunderstanding. We have already gotten the notification that our company has been chosen, so what is with the new rules”.Imelda just laughed and responded, “ sorry for the inconvenience, but like you said, it’s a new rule”. Frowning her face, Emily muttered, “that’s what I just said”. “Oh yes, a new ownership means new rule. When your company was notified, our previous boss was in charge, but right now, we have a new boss who makes the rule”.“What kin
Rachel got to the company and was on her way to the office, where she met the secretary, who took a deep breath as she saw her.Giving her an amusing smile, “What’s up? Rachel asked her.Imelda tried to calm herself as she tried to speak calmly, but she was rushing her words, which made Rachel frown.“Woah! Calm down young lady, don’t be in a haste”. Rachel stopped her with her hands and said.Blushing in embarrassment, Imelda responded with a soft voice, “I’m sorry ma’am”. “Good, so now, what happened? What is with the rush?Rachel asked as she saw the sweat on her face and the way her face was flushed.Finally calming herself down, Imelda began speaking, “Ma’am the Smith company group are here”. She told Rachel.Rachel frowned her face when she heard this, “so soon”. She could not help but ask as she checked the time and saw that it was past eight.“I just got the notification from the receptionist “. Imelda said sheepishly.“I thought I asked you to cancel the collaboration with t
Had it been just anyone that touched his cheeks, he would have gotten mad, but because Rachel was too pretty, he didn’t get mad at all, instead he became extremely shy. Holding her pants, Rapheal asked with a soft voice, “pretty lady, are you married? Although she felt weird with the question, she decided to tease him, “maybe yes , or maybe no”. “Huh”. He stared at her with confusion written all over his face. Rachel chuckled seeing his cute sullen look. She knew he was still little, so she decided not to tease him anymore and gave him a direct answer, “No uhmm……. What should I call you? She said and asked, because she just realized that she didn’t know his name. Raphael's eyes quickly lit up as he heard this, he giggled and replied, “My name is Rapheal”. He muttered with a proud look. “What a cute name for a cute little boy like you”. She said and tapped his nose lightly making him grin. “Of course, pretty lady, mummy chose the name special for me”. He told her with a smile.
