Tyler had informed him earlier that investigations to reveal the culprits were ongoing and he would give him feedback as they were done with the processes.He was just about laying his head when Olivia walked in with a moody face.“Darling, what's the problem? Why are you moody?” He asked.“Nothing! It's just that Grandma called saying she wants to see me at the family Villa tomorrow. She equally wants us to go back to London and revisit Stafford Theo for the partnership deal.” Olivia responded. “I don't want to go because I'm already fed up with her ridiculous words and insults. What do you think I should do? Should I go or should I stay?”“Don't worry, dear. It's nothing bad to go there. Besides, she is your grandma and the head of Marcus' family”, he told her.”“As for going to see Stafford Theo, just follow her there if she insists but I don't think he would be capable of helping Thompson petrochemical group now that Shell PLC had terminated their partnership deal with them. My mi
Inside Stafford Theo secretary’s office at British Petroleum, London were the duo granddaughter and grandmother seated like a stranger waiting for the house owner to welcome and offer them a drink.One of the company’s receptionist had taken them to Stafford Theo secretary’s office in accordance to an order she had received from the secretary earlier that day. ‘Direct one named Lady Marcus and miss Olivia Marcus from Wales City to my office whenever they arrived here and offer them some drink in case I'm not in!’ was the secretary’s statement to her in the morning.When, Lady Marcus and her granddaughter, miss Olivia arrived British Petroleum, London after departing from the airport, the receptionist upon confirmation of their identities as Lady Marcus and miss Olivia Marcus had taken them to the secretary’s office and after which, she left to get them some drinks. “Please, madam you can sit and wait for the secretary. She is currently out inform the CEO about your presence!”However,
Whilst they were still discussing and analyzing the pros and cons involved in either sealing the partnership deal or not with British Petroleum for the Thompson petrochemical group, it was when Stafford Theo's secretary pushed her office door open and walked in interrupting the duo discussion between Lady Marcus and her granddaughter Miss Olivia Marcus.She bowed her head respectfully before them and said, “I'm very sorry to have kept you waiting for long here without attending to you. I have been busy helping my Boss to clear off some tasks on his desk to give him enough time for your business with him. He is equally sorry and was worried that you have been left here without being attended to, and that was why he had sent the receptionist to at least give you some tea and water for a drink to calm your anger and quench your thirst before he joins you.”She made her face look very remorseful while she apologized for keeping them on the waiting list without prior notifications and or g
After a long period of silence displayed by the duo grandmother and her granddaughter, lady Marcus said, “there’s no problem, Mr Theo! You don't have to go through the stress of explaining the reasons for your actions to us again. Your secretary, Miss Xina, has given us enough explanation behind the actions and they were very satisfying!”“Really?”"Yea. She explained and apologized for keeping us in her office without attending to us earlier than she should have done and we aren't angry anymore having heard the reasons behind everything that happened.”“Alright. Thank you so much lady Marcus and your beautiful granddaughter for your understanding.” Mr Theo said delightedly and continued, “accept this drink as a token of my sincere apology for my wrongs!”Saying this, Mr Theo offered them wine glasses, opened the wine bottle, filled their glasses with the wine contents and said, “let's make a toast!”"Alright! Who is going to lead the toast?!” Lady Marcus asked Mr Theo who had a smile
She could no longer want to waste her precious time on the shameless and lustful British Petroleum’s CEO who was wallowing in the aura of the past glory of his company’s outstanding status in the Great Britain’s industries and commerce ladder when there is a new birthed king of commerce and business hub at her homeland with mega opportunities to explore.They jolted their way out of British Petroleum's company, leaving Mr Stafford Theo in utter surprise and bewilderment at his desolated office.“Grandma, thank you so much for listening and understanding me in this case. Thank you for standing by me!” Olivia told Lady Marcus while they entered the airport cab going to Cardiff airport where their flight returning ticket had been booked.“You're welcome, dear, but you will have to be obedient and respectful to me as a repayment for this. Meanwhile, I will call for a family meeting tomorrow for us to look into how we can grab a slate from the enlisted Megan group's projects." Lady Marcus r
Olivia got back home full of excitement and giggling. She wanted to tell Charles how her grandmother had suddenly changed, and sought reconciliation and peace.She equally wanted to narrate to him how coyly and sinisterly, Mr Stafford Theo was with his latest business partnership deal.Luckily enough for her, Charles and her mother, Rose, were at home when came back.Charles was in the kitchen doing his normal house chores and cooking for the family while Rose was watching a television in the parlor when Olivia pushed the door open and entered inside their house.“Good evening, ma!” Olivia greeted her mom with smiles all over her face.“Good evening and welcome back home Olivia!” Rose responded to Olivia's greetings with her face still glued to her movie show on the TV.Olivia walked straight past her mom and entered her room.Although she didn't see Charles in their room, she knew that he would definitely be doing some cooking in the kitchen since he had told her earlier through phon
Everyone in the Marcus family both young and old, sons and daughters, grandsons and granddaughters including in-laws were already seated for the meeting at the Marcus family Villa.Lady Marcus had instructed that no one should be missing in that meeting and none was expected to be late for it.All her daughters and granddaughters had come with their respective husbands.Lily was there with Luca Grand, her husband.Lily's elder sister, Margaret who was equally the first granddaughter of the Marcus family but married to Tim Hector from Scotland was also in the meeting with her husband.Tim Hector was the grandson of Graham Hector, a business Conglomerate from the Southern Upland in Scotland.They had also come to hustle for one slate of the enlisted projects by Megan's groug and when they received the memo for the Marcus family meeting and the order of Marcus family head requesting for all her children and inlaws to be in attendance to that, had come to Lord Marcus Villa to be part of th
Immediately, all of them went back and resumed their seats without uttering a single word.Lady Marcus' words were final and order for the family members. They had to respect and be obedient to her as the head of the Marcus family.Lady Marcus too, sat on her executive chair and began the meeting for them. “Listen very attentively to me, all of you!”“This isn't the time to fight one another,” Lady Marcus began addressing her children. “I called all of you here to discuss an important issue that demands urgent attention and your sincere contributions and efforts are needed for us to achieve success on this matter!”Lady Marcus address and speech were confusing for her household members except for Charles and Olivia to understand.There were echoes of murmuring with everyone in the meeting.A lot of humming and unclear signs were hovering over her children's faces.Her speech was a puzzle too hard for them to dissect and get what she was talking about.Benjamin could not hide how fuzzy
