She took a cup of cappuccino which was always prepared before she wakes up every day. She smiled and walked out of her room . Looking startled by the presence of Smith who was walking towards her direction. He greeted her good morning and asked if there is any outing for that day. Charlotte looked at him and she said “ I’ll let you know If I’ll be leaving the house “ Charlotte was stop on the way as she walked towards the living room by a maid.

Charlotte heard his baritone voice from behind saying “ Go in Charlotte, I’m right behind you “ A tip of fear gripped her as she walked into the library. Her father walked in and stared at her. He asked her to sit which is very unusual but she sat and asked why he sent for her. Mr. Gray knowing how dramatic his daughter might be spoke to her calmly and softly…“ Charlotte, I’m now of age and I’m becoming weaker as each day passes by. The stress of the company is becoming unbearable for me and I need someone to lift the burdens off my shoulders “ Charlotte was surprised as her father spoke to her about business for the first time in twenty five years. She was thrilled and in a hurry to answer her father. She thought who would be the perfect heir to the Gray’s business? She wondered which of her cousins would be fit? Who will dad deem fit for the position? Can he trust Smith maybe? She pondered. Meanwhile her father who had it all planned out knew who he wanted already but wanted to hear from his daughter to see what decision and comment she’ll give . Charlotte answered her father saying… “ Dad , from my perspective a male would be perfect for this position but he’ll be under your supervision and mentorship. I suggest you bring on board the second largest shareholder of the company if he wants” Unknown to Charlotte she was the perfect candidate and has already been elected. Her father looked at her and thought to himself. When did she become so smart as this? Mr. Gray looked Charlotte straight in the Eyes and said . “ Charlotte, you are the new CEO of the company from Monday you’ll be resuming office as the Chief executive officer and the head of directive.
