~~~~
Later that night, while I was at our residential home together with my step mom , I decided to confront the other party right away. I would not let the opportunity to slip out my hand to insinuate at her that she was already busted. Although I made it in a roundabout manner.

The merger of our company was as good as close deal and soon, I could get my hands o thje Nordstorme Corp.However, Jodi seemed to be in a bad mood because instead of smiling but at me, she only gave me a scowl."So how was your search for Sir Amelito Almiro going?

He was asking for his death if he did!I was agitated after learning that Jodi knew that I was looking for that old, useless driver, but I did not let that my true emotion to show on my face.

That only means that she really has something important to tell me"Yes, Ms. Nordstorme. Is there anything you would want me to do today?"I replied right away as soon as I heard the voice of my boss from the other end of the line. But after that, silence followed. I was just about to ask what went wrong when all of sudden I heard her voice again."Have you eaten?"She asked me a very out of the back question which caught me off guard. At the same time, I noticed how Ms. Nordstorme made an effort to put as much enthusiasm on her voice. But for some reason, a jolly person

At least, the other party was no longer adamant at turning them down.So with the same insinuating manner, she answered him back."That would make it easier for you to do your duties once you become a director. All that was left for you now is to leave Ms. Shantal Nordstrome no other choice but to step down and abdicate the position of board directory to your hands.""Ousting her is not enough.

Panic was noticeably present on the other party's face when she raised her question. Meanwhile, the secretary remained silence yet that was all enough for Mathilde to guess her response and not long after that, her shoulders dropped on the side when the realization hit her."I guess she was bound to find out about it sooner or later."She muttered under her breath with despondent undertone.An exasperated sigh escaped Mathilde's lips afterward. But then, she suddenly tenses up when she recalled about something else.Leaning towards the other party all the while grabbing a hold to the iron bars, Mathilde looked around her warily first to make sure that no ears were on them.Only when she confirmed for the umpteenth time that no one was listenin
