“Where is she?” Octavius asked immediately he arrived home with a wrapped gift in his hands.“Who?” his butler asked when he walked to the living room.“My wife,” Octavius replied as he sat down.“Young mistress hasn’t come back yet,” Alfred said as he looked at his young master in pity.He had already overheard the conversation between Rhiannon and her nanny Mary when they were talking on the phone and knew that the latter wasn’t coming home. Nonetheless, he didn’t say anything about it as he felt that it wasn’t his place to say anything.Octavius was a grown-up and could call his wife and ask where she was.Octavius glanced at his wristwatch watch then at the door and sighed. He didn’t need anyone to tell him that the latter wasn’t coming back as Rhiannon had never been late. It was already past nine.“You can go,” he said as he felt frustrated.He took his phone and dialed her number but no one picked up.He kept calling without giving up not minding whether he was spamming her wit
“No sir… As their husbands, we support our wife's work,” the secretary said quickly.He got to know something that he didn’t know. Looking at how his boss was behaving, he was astonished that the boss lady owned such a big company. He also saw the need to bootlick her works if he wanted to have an easy way. He vowed to always keep an eye on hat company.“Boss, should we advertise for our company’s perfumes or hers?” he asked as he wanted to advertise the madam’s perfumes.“Advertise? Those two girls from that company are enough to advertise for them. When it is known that they work for that company, the selling will shoot. Have you not been looking at how the perfume selling is going?” Octavius asked coldly causing the man to flinch.He regretted the suggestion as he felt that he was too stupid to forget the reason he had first investigated the company.“Indeed, when they discovered that the two girls who always bring trophies back for our nation work there, many people rushed to buy.
“How are the sales going on? Also, did you get the perfumes I asked you to?” Anabelle asked her assistant immediately after the latter walked into her office.“Yes madam but you will have to pay me. There was a long cue at the mall because of our company’s perfume and the Ravens. I discovered that one of my friends had already bought the bottle for herself thus I requested her to hand them to me and I will pay her back or buy others for her later on,” the secretary said causing Anabelle to flash her an innocent smile on her cold face.Seeing this, the personal assistant rolled her eyes but didn’t dare say anything against the woman as she had been known as a she-devil since she was young, eighteen years since she took over the perfumery company from her mother.“Thank you so much. You are my capable assistant and that’s why I never dare to replace you with anyone else,” Anabelle said flattering the woman.“Enough. I have been on our side for so long and I know you in and out. If you r
“You haven’t even sniffed the other to know whether it’s the best or not. So quick to make judgments,” the other woman said as she rolled her eyes.“Olivia, can you for once not oppose t my every words? Sometimes I wonder whether I made the right decision by making you my assistant,” Anabelle said causing the latter to roll her eyes.“Oh please spare me! We started a business together! We were ten years back then and I have always been your little assistant. Now after years have passed you want to change me? No way!” Olivia said as she glared at Anabelle who placed the blue perfume at the side and took the golden perfume.“Let’s now see which one is the best,” Anabelle said as she sprayed it on her other hand.“This one is so rich. I think that’s why they made the color golden. After all, gold is a rare yet expensive jewel,” Olivia analyzed immediately as the smell covered the whole room.Anabelle looked at the latter and nodded her head. That was one of the reasons she could never ha
“What?” Anabelle screamed as she couldn’t believe her twin’s words.‘I said, that company belongs to your sister-in-law,” Octavius said as he stared at the wall wondering whether the latter had not heard her or that she just didn’t want to believe him.“My sister–in–law? Which sister–in–law?” Anabelle asked causing Octavius to feel like beating her.“Oh? How did the great Miss Anabelle Rodriguez, the only daughter to Amanda Anderson and Antonio Rodriguez EQ lower?” he asked mockingly causing the woman on the other side mad.“Octavius, Don’t dare push your luck!” Anabelle said in between her teeth as she felt like beating the shit out of the latter.How could he insult her that way?“What? It's true. How many sisters-in-law do you have?” Octavius said as he shook the pen in his hand being in a good mood after insulting his sister.They have always been on each other’s shoulders. No one wanted to give in to each other. In academic, business ideas. They always wanted to prove that one of
Olivia questioned the latter as she wanted to divert the latter’s attention.Anabelle became serious and stopped being angry with her brother as she knew it was useless.“Companies? It seems that the man is hiding something from me,” she said without telling Olivia what Octavius had said.She wasn’t stupid, he could tell that Octavius didn’t want anyone to know that his wife had some company on her hands. Although it made her curious why, she didn’t think much of it as they were now one family and there was always time for them to get to know each other and know his wife’s secret.“Recently,” she murmured once more.Seeing her behaving like that. Olivia didn’t question her once more as she could tell it was somehow personal.“The companies that have launched the perfumes recently, have they changed hands?” she asked Olivia.“That, I don’t know as I haven’t had anything but it's most likely. After all, how could they produce perfumes such better perfumes like the previous ones?” Olivia
Hearing that, Rhiannon smirked as she took the tablet that Raven was handing over to see.As she read the reviews, she knew that she had succeeded but she felt that the ten percent are little low.“We shouldn’t celebrate at this time. Celebrations will be after both of you win the international perfumery competitions abroad. After that, we will be sure that we will take the first position. Right now, this is just little achievements making people recognize us, realize that the Rodrigues aren’t the only ones talented in that sector,” Rhiannon said in a serious tone as she knew after this, her husband would organize strategies for his company to get to the top.“You are talking as if we won’t be talking the first position this time,” Ruby said as she rolled her eyes making Rhiannon smile faintly at her.“So what if we take it? Yes, we can take it but dear, you near to think at the brighter future,” Rhiannon said causing them to raise their eyebrows at her as they wondered what she was s
Octavius was seated on his chair looking at the perfumes in front of him.He smiled gently when he saw that they were all of different colors as if Rhiannon was afraid that people would be unable to distinguish between them if they bought everything.His secretary was standing at the door looking at him worriedly. He was afraid that the latter might get angry and punish him because their perfume was defeated. Seeing him smiling, he was confused and didn’t understand what he was doing.Feeling a sharp gaze on him, Octavius stopped smiling and his eyes turned cold as he looked at his secretary who started trembling that he had been found staring.“Why are you trembling? You have been with me for so long yet you still fear me? Am I that terrifying?” Octavius asked with a frown as he believed that his cold face and gaze weren’t as terrifying as Rhiannon never said anything about it.Without knowing, the secretary found himself nodding his head vigorously making Octavius frown deeper.“If
