A few minutes later, Dahlia again knocked on her door.“Mam, Miss Ira has come to meet you,” Dahlia informed, and Gloria nodded.“Send her to the meeting room. I would want to have a chat with her.” Gloria informed.This girl has potential, and Gloria didn’t want to let her go.In the long run, she can make a profit for Dream.She went to talk to her.When she entered, Ira was sitting there timidly.“Mam.” she stood up noticing her enter the room.“I wanted to talk with you. Do you have time?” Gloria asked and she nod.Gloria ordered coffee for both of them and they sit there while sipping coffee.She was noticing her movement, and how Ira was getting nervous was making her dissatisfied.This girl has talent.Only she needed to find out on her own.Gloria can train her, but she needed to earn her confidence.“So, I asked you to come after finishing your commitments. Have you finished them all?” Gloria asked and she nod.“Then do you like to be the face of Dream?” Gloria asked directly
Mr. Jordan has informed Gloria about his boss’s decision.He has agreed to meet her but he wanted to meet outside.Gloria didn’t have any problem with that, so she agreed.She just wanted to know who this person is.“Mom, are you going somewhere?” Gloria was getting ready for meeting the investor.He has proposed to meet her in a restaurant and they will have dinner together.Gloria didn’t know why he wanted to do that but Mr. Jordan has only sent him the time and address.Maybe he is too busy to talk with her in the daytime.C company is not a novice company and there was a rumor the CEO was also some big shot as he built this company instantly and in five years it was glowing in its glory.Today she will get to know who the person is.“Yes, baby. I am going to a meeting.” Gloria said and tried to apply some lip balm as she was not wearing any makeup.“This is not fair. You said you won’t leave me alone after office time.” Daniel complained, and she turned around to look at her son.
“You are the investor who bought the shares of Dream?” Gloria asked though she knows there is no chance of confusion.“Why, didn’t you see my name there?” He ask with a smirk and Gloria was confused.The contract was signed in name of C company. She didn’t find his name.“There was no name.” Gloria retorted.“But there was my sign, and I thought though we are not together you will remember my sign,” David said in a mocking tone.“What are you planning? Mr. Collin?” Gloria asked worriedly.“So soon? And I would prefer David from your mouth as I am used to it.” David said.“I would prefer Mr. Collin. We are here for an official meeting and other than that I am not related to you anyhow.” Gloria said sternly and David chuckled.“We can discuss it later. But I am hungry. So let’s have our dinner.” David said and called a waiter.Gloria didn’t want to have dinner with him, but she needed to end this matter today.So she complied with her request.It was just a dinner and no one can get hur
“Don’t you understand? It was in the past. Now we are not together. Neither I want to do anything with you.” Gloria said in a low voice as she was sad.She felt the wound that she was trying hard to hide got opened.“But you can do anything with that, Jonathan? What is your relationship with him? Why you can do business with him but not mine.” David expressed his thought which made Gloria dumbfound.How could he always pull Jonathan in between and make it appear like I have some indecent relationship with him?“How dare you? Jonathan has nothing to do with this.” Gloria retorted.Why does he always bring Jonathan between“Then tell him to move out of this project. I know White can handle this business single-handedly. They don’t need an investor.” David didn’t give her an option.But his words were making Gloria furious.“I don’t care what you know and what you don’t I told you to back off. Otherwise, the consequences won’t be good.” Gloria tried to threaten him but it didn’t go as sh
Gloria didn’t understand what she should do.She was at a loss for an idea, however, she wanted to get rid of David.She was worried about how he was trying to invade her life and she didn’t want to let that happen. Her fragile heart still beats for him and it didn’t matter how much she wanted it to stop loving him, his presence only make her submit in front of him.She was worried about Daniel more than herself.Her boy was innocent, and she didn’t want him to suffer in David’s wicked game.So it was important for her to stop David’s plan so that she can make sure Daniel never get to know how ruthless his father is.He never cared for her and she was sure he won’t care for Daniel too because he only cared about him and Daniel will only become an obstacle in his and Lia’s life.She wanted to sort this matter out soon, and only one person can help her do that.Jonathan.So she called him with no hesitation.“Hey, what happened?” Jonathan asked worriedly.Gloria rarely takes the initia
“Momma.” Daniel got off the bed hurriedly noticing her mom enter the room.“I was waiting for you,” he said and jump into her arm Gloria picked her up and ruffle his hair lovingly.“Look what I have bought for you,” Gloria said and hand him the packet.He got down and took it and opened the box excitedly.When he noticed the food custard his face lit up.“For me?” He asked and Gloria nodded.He took the spoon and start to eat without noticing anything else.“I thought you love me. But Now I think I will have to compete with this fruit custard now.” Jonathan said, peeking out from the room.“Uncle Jon.” Daniel looked at Jonathan but didn’t show any eagerness to go to him rather he sat on the bed and devoured the delicacy.“Are you sure you want to compete? Because I can surely see you are losing.” Gloria said and laugh.“I can see that, too,” Jonathan said and entered.Gloria was looking at her son and there was a faint smile on her face but the smile was clouded with concern.She was
“Why Miss white, Didn’t you took an appointment to meet me today? We can go on with the meeting.” David interrupted her. “Yes, it will be good as soon as we finish it.” Jonathan agreed, and she noticed David smirk. She wanted to stop Jonathan, but she knew it will worsen the situation. So she kept her calm. “So what did you want to talk about? I thought Dream was doing well.” David pulled out a pack of cigarettes making Gloria frown. David has never smoked before. He has been always health conscious and he would only drink occasionally when it was needed. When did he start smoking suddenly? But to Gloria’s relief he didn’t light it up he was just playing with the cigarette. “Company is doing well and it will continue in the future too. We are here to talk about your shares.” Jonathan said not beating around the bush. “What about my shares?” David asked, faking ignorance. “Didn’t Gloria inform you in your previous meeting? We want you to withdraw your investment.” Jonathan sa
After talking with David, Gloria was in an emotional battle.On one side, it was her son’s safety on the other side it was her morals.She couldn’t think about compromising in any way.“Gloria, why don’t you agree? It will solve everything.” Jonathan again tried to persuade her.They have left the restaurant after David, and now Jonathan was driving her to the White mansion.“Nothing will solve like this. Don’t you understand? David doesn’t care about these petty shares. He just wants to make trouble for me.” Gloria said, trying to make Jonathan understand.“Even if I make him leave, he won’t leave me alone.” Gloria sighed.“What should we do then? We can’t let him get to know about Daniel.” Jonathan asked worriedly.Gloria knew what she has to do.Though it was a risky step she didn’t have any other way.“We have to agree with him. As long as I let him stay in Dream, he will put his guard down. I don’t care if he messed up my business. I can handle it. But I won’t let him mess up my
