“What are you doing here?” I asked.Adze was already comfortable sitting on the sofa while Lancelot greeted Enver first and shook his hand before sitting beside him.“As I said, we are here for your proposal,” he said.“But—”“You already have it, right?” He showed his hand in front of me. “Let me see it. I want to know every detail of your plan.”I was hesitant to give it to him so I turned my head to Lancelot and he just nodded I didn't have a choice but to hand him the three folders that contained all the ideas that Raiden will do regarding the deal that we have so Anox will supply their cars here.“Sorry about him being this kind of demanding,” Lancelot said while letting Adze read what was inside the folder. “He was on leave from his work and he is not used to doing nothing so he chose to take care of my work.”“And you are letting him do that?”He nodded and turned his eyes to Adze. “What his mind is his so I don’t mind him getting involved in decision-making for my company.”I

Chapter 22

Since Adze already prepared the contract, we started to study everything that they put there.Well, it is not that we don’t trust them. This is a formal contract that has affiliated with a lot of responsibilities and a lot of money which is why we need to know everything that was written on it.Besides, Adze also advice that to us before they left. He said that he is the one who draft the contract but he is not sure if Lancelot’s secretary puy everything he said.So, it is only natural for us to allocate a lot of time to this one before signing it.“What are they going to do if we lost the deal?” Art asked after I explained to him the temporary partnership between Raiden and Anox.“We are going to pay twenty percent of the original price of each car that we didn’t manage to sell,” I said and showed him the page where it was stated in the contract. “The deal is only ten cars in three months. If we only sold three cars, twenty percent of the total price of the remaining seven cars will

Chapter 23

I am currently inside the meeting room together with the department head of Raiden. And they are all busy whispering about the deal that the company had with Anox.Most of them are not agreed with what is happening. They are already thinking that Raiden will lose in this deal even though they haven’t heard the report from the strategic department.And they lost their trust in this deal when they learned that it was my idea and I was the one who prepared the proposal.Some say that I took a reckless move and I didn’t even try to consult the department head of the company. And others are questioning my credibility as Enver’s secretary to make a such move even because they don’t know me and I didn’t do the normal process to become an employee of the company.To be honest, I am getting irritated with what they are saying but I choose not to confront them because it will not help us in this situation.Adze and Lancelot believed that we would be able to pull this through. They trust my word

Chapter 24

Everyone was busy as soon as we started preparing the launch of our new payment method for those people who wanted to buy Raiden’s car.After Enver finished signing the contract that Adze made, I immediately went to the Anox to get Lancelot to sign it. And I don’t know why but I have these feelings that Adze was expecting my arrival because as soon as Lancelot’s secretary opened the door, Adze was standing there while signing me to give the contract to him.“Seriously?” I raised my eyebrows at him. “Do you have a spy in our office?” I handed him the folder.“Yeah.” He started looking at every page of the contract. “It is Dashiel. You know how talkative that one is, right?”I shook my head and sighed.Well, Dashiel is updated on everything that happened at Raiden because he is one of the investors. And just like I promised him, I am sending him a report about the project but I didn’t expect that he will tell them that.“Don’t think too much about that, Miss Escuero,” Adze said. “I just

Chapter 25

We have been busy with the launch of the project and everyone at Raiden is busy with their work since Enver wanted it all done before the day of the launch.And that also includes me.I was in-charged of getting all the papers we needed for the launch since we are doing it in a public venue. Though, I manage to get those permits the easy way at the town and city municipal hall.I accidentally met Castiel at the town municipal hall where she was doing some interviews that she is going to feature in her magazine. And she take advantage of that chance to use her connection so that I could get the permit as soon as possible.So, I came back to the venue before lunch and everyone was still busy preparing.And it looks like they all forgot to take their lunch break because none of them ordered their food which they manage to do for the past few days.I saw Art arrive and I immediately come to him. “Where did you go?”“There are some problems with the delivery that Anox will supply to us.” H

Chapter 26

When we arrived at the warehouse of Anox, I immediately saw Enver.He was sitting on the hood of his car while staring at his phone. And it showed on his face that he has a big problem that is why I run out of the car and went to him.“What happened here?”He looked at me and I can see his deep sadness. “I think I messed up.”I frowned. “What do you mean?”“I think I forgot to inform the city customs about the delivery that Anox will make today,” he said. “It is a standard procedure whenever a car manufacturer will take out their cars in their warehouse to ensure that we are taking the right product and there are no illegal things that involve in the transactions.”That procedure will just act as precautions for both parties because there are a lot of incidents before where some car companies are using their car product to transport illegal substances and the dealer didn’t know anything about that so when there was an inspection at the checkpoint near the area where they are going to

Chapter 27

“He messed up?” Ferry was shocked to hear that news from me.After the inspection of the city customs earlier at the warehouse of Anox, Adze arrived and ordered the release of the products that needed to be delivered to the venue. Even though the rules said that it should be delivered twenty-four hours after the inspection.But he took care of the negotiation and they made an agreement which is why we managed to take those products and secured their delivery.After that, Enver ordered me to go home and rest. Art can take care of other things that need to be done.I didn’t refuse that offer since I have been taking care of a lot of papers earlier at different locations. My feet are getting sore and I think I need to rest for the whole night so I have full energy for tomorrow’s event.Millie doesn’t want to eat without me so I had to cook some dinner for us as soon as I arrived at my house. And while doing that, I decided to call Ferry and Castiel to tell them what happened earlier.“Ye

Chapter 28

This is it!I already checked everything around the venue. Every guest that we invited was already outside and waiting for our opening. Media that will cover the whole event are also on standby. And of course, the food for guests was also prepared.I made sure that everything is in place, especially our display.We are just waiting for the exact time to start the event when we are launching the partnership between Raiden and Anox, the cars that we have in our displays, and the new method that customers can use in case they can’t afford to buy the cars in cash.“I am nervous,” Art said. He kept walking back and forth as he looked around. “I didn’t expect that there would be a lot of people here.”“Well, I gave an invitation to all the people that are related to Raiden,” I said. “And of course, I also make sure that all the executives and investors are here because there are media who will cover everything that will happen in this event.”“Really?” he asked and I nodded.“And Castiel, m

Chapter 29

I can’t help but feel relief as soon as the program that we prepared finally ended.And as of now, everyone is now enjoying the food and drinks that we served, as well as the Anox cars that we put on our display around the area.I can see on their face that they love seeing the new achievements that Raiden got. And they are going to give their full support for it.Raiden’s executives and investors are also pleased and I think the next time I lay out another plan or idea to them, it will not be hard for me to get their approval, especially if I can just show them that this is for the good of their company.And overall, this is a successful launch.“You are the one behind all of this, right?”I turned my back and saw one of the executives of Raiden. “Mister Viella.”He was just looking at me and to be honest, I don’t know how to act in front of him so I just averted my eyes from him.“You should greet me first, Milan,” he said and that made me turn my eyes on him again and this time, he

Chapter 30

The whole event finally ended.And when all of the visitors were gone, Enver said that we will have an after-party for all the employees of Raiden. To appreciate all their non-stop effort for the whole week and the celebration of the success of our launch.Since I know am aware of this plan, I already reserved the nearest bar in the venue. I told them to go there and just say my name to the bar owner who I am sure is waiting for us.“You are a hell of a secretary,” Lucien said when he finally entered the bar. “As far as I know, this after-party is Enver’s surprise for the employees yet you manage to reserve this bar just for us ahead of time.”I smiled. “Let’s just say, I know how a boss like Enver thinks.” I slightly pushed him so he will get inside the bar since I still needs to stay here at the entrance of the bar together with the bouncer. I just need to secure that only Raiden employees will enter here at this hour.Well, aside from them, some of the executives decided to come wi
