Chapter 108“I really admire you and all the efforts you have kept into ensuring the success of various projects Chesterfield investment group has carried out” Ben said, praising her as she has been his idol for years.Fred, Sam and Ben continued showering them with praises because they looked up to them so much and they believed that if they caught their attention enough, they could get noticed by these elite set of people and that could launch a new height of financial success in their careers!“Excuse me. We are here for an interview” Jeremy said,trying to walk past them.Isabelle just stood silently, observing all that was going on.Fred raised his brows, “interview? I thought you all have great careers. Why would you be looking to be interviewed by the Wilson family's company?” Fred asked curiously. “Yes, we still have our various careers but we are looking forward to working with the Wilson family's company. Do you have any problem with that?” Lauren replied to Fred and asked
Chapter 109“And why do we need your permission to leave?” Fred asked with so much irritation in his voice.“You three called yourselves experts in your various fields. Are you not aware that you are meant to sign a legal form before quitting?” Sebastien asked them.“It is not always compulsory to sign the form” Sam immediately attacked Sebastien. He knew signing the form would be disastrous for their career.“In this case, you do not have a say. You must sign it” Sebastien said, his voice heavy with so much authority. Sebastien gestured at Isabelle to get the document they are supposed to sign. Isabelle stepped out of the room in obedience. “And if we say we do not want to sign it? What are you going to do about that?” Ben said.They knew the document that they were supposed to sign would hinder them from getting any form of work for the next three months and that is because they do not have any valid reason for quitting their previous job.Isabelle quickly went to get copies of th
Chapter 110For a few days everything was going according to plans, no unnecessary drama and everything was just really peaceful for the first time in a while.Until…One Sunday afternoon, Sebastien and Isabelle were just sitting on the couch, relaxing and watching a movie when they heard a loud knock on their front door.Isabelle was startled because it was really rare for them to receive a visitor on Sunday, so she paused the movie and Sebastien went to check who was at the door.After confirming the person that was at the door, he opened the door and the first thing he received was a slap across his face. Isabelle gasped as her mother came into view. “mum! What is the meaning of all these?!” Isabelle had to ask because it was strange for her mother to just come in and slap her husband.Sebastien who stood close to the doorway was also taken aback. He did not know the reason she slapped him. He just stood there and did not take any action because Adeline is his mother in law and he
Chapter 111The manager of the biltwave event centre was trembling in her office when she heard the tone of Sebastien's voice.She had expected his call but she was still not prepared for it.“Sir, it was all a misunderstanding.” She said, her voice trembling. “What type of stupid misunderstanding is that?” Sebastien thundered, “what exactly happened? Give me all the details!” Sebastien requested. “We just found out that it was the receptionist that mixed up things. Don't be annoyed, sir” the manager pleaded with Sebastien. At the mention of that, Sebastien remembered the way the receptionist treated him and Adeline when they went to make payment for the biltwave event centre and could not help but feel she intentionally did this so they could be embarrassed!The manager's heart was pounding hard and fast as she was yet to get a response from Sebastien. “So you are trying to tell me that the receptionist is behind all this?” Sebastien had to ask again.“Y-yes sir” the manager stut
Chapter 112Sebastien went out of the room after the call and found Isabelle in the sitting room. She was sitting on the couch with a frown on her face. Adeline had already left.“Sebastien what the hell did you do?! My mum was thrown outside and embarrassed in the presence of her former colleague!” Isabelle said as soon as she sighted Sebastien. Her mother had explained everything that happened when Sebastien went upstairs and she was so pissed off when she heard all that happened. It was horrible!“Calm down. Here me out” Sebastien said calmly as he prepared to explain the whole thing to her.Isabelle folded her arms across her chest, “I am listening”“Look. It was all a misunderstanding. Apparently the receptionist at the biltwave event centre was very rude to us the day we went there…” Sebastien started.“So?” Isabelle asked, urging him to go on.“So, she actually made an arrangement with your mother's former colleague to swap the reservations and blame me for presenting a fake
Chapter 113The next day, It was a public holiday so Isabelle did not have to be at work. Sebastien woke up early with the intent of visiting Adeline as soon as possible. He quickly freshened up and went downstairs to get something to eat when he heard footsteps and saw a sleepy Isabelle Walking towards him.“Hey babe” he said, as he embraced her when she was within arms reach. Isabelle melted in his embrace and said, “good morning” She said it groggily. “You should still be in bed. Why are you up this early?” Sebastien asked, she did not have to be at work today and he expected her to use the opportunity to get a bit more sleep than she normally would but look at her waking up so early.“I woke up and did not see you next to me” Isabelle mumbled into his shirt but he could still make out what she said.Sebastien's hand made their way under her blouse and he ran his hand soothingly up and down her bare back.“But you know you need this sleep, right?” Sebastien questioned.“But not
Chapter 114The manager picked up and Sebastien said, “I am here with my mother in law. And I would like you to explain to her that the whole issue with the reservation was a mix up” Adeline stared at Sebastien as he said that while she waited for the manager's explanation. The manager began explaining all that happened to Adeline, from the part the receptionist played, to the part Margaret and her son in law played and even down to the part where she confronted the receptionist. Adeline was surprised when she heard all these and she felt bad for treating Sebastien the way she did earlier.She wished she had given him a listening ear.“I am so sorry that something like this had to happen ma” the manager apologised to Adeline.“I have told you what to do. Get the receptionist to apologise for my mother in law personally” Sebastien said. “The company did nothing wrong. This is all the receptionist's fault and she must apologise for it!” Sebastien added.“How do you suggest we get he
Chapter 115Adeline went on with her preparations for the housewarming party and she agreed to host it at the biltwave event centre like Sebastien earlier suggested. She contacted the entertainer she planned on hiring for her guests and paid the person. She decided to skip the part of interior decoration because Margaret would obviously take care of that.The only reason Adeline agreed to Sebastien's plan was because she wanted to see Margaret being embarrassed and thrown out at her own party! It would be an epic sight to see! She really felt bad for doubting Sebastien, maybe he is the perfect son in law after all! She picked up her phone and texted all her close friends. She told them that the venue is still the biltwave event centre and that the time of the event would be communicated to them.********************After Sebastien and Isabelle left Isabelle's parents house, Sebastien had it in mind to stop at the biltwave event centre. So that was what he did.“What are we doing
