Chapter 57

Isabelle turned to look at Sebastien to confirm if he was also hearing the same thing she was but he had a neutral expression on his face.

Isabelle turned to look at Master Wilson and said, “grandfather, I'm sorry to say this but I hope you aren't pulling my legs. Do you really mean what you are saying?

Are you really willing to offer me this? And at what cost if I may ask”

Master Wilson smiled to himself, of course, she was a Wilson and she would find it hard to believe that she got such a great offer without the person offering it wanting something in return.

“Nothing. At no cost Isabelle. Just consider this an offer from your grandfather to you” Master Wilson said with a cunning smile on his face.

Isabelle studied his expression for any sign that he was joking or pulling her legs but she couldn't see any. Obviously, it would be hard to notice anything seeing that master Wilson is a great actor.

“So, Are you in or not?” Master Wilson asked, hoping she would accept becau

    Chapter 58The next morning was a Monday morning and Isabelle began to prepare for her first day as the head of the departments in the Wilson's family company. She was quite nervous because ever since she was made to leave the company, she had never set foot there and this would be the first time going there in a while. So she didn't know what to expect and that made her really nervous.Sebastien could sense her nervousness while they were having breakfast so he asked, “are you alright, princess?” he could see she was nervous but he wanted her to say so by herself.Isabelle snapped out of her thoughts and said, “i-i’m fine” she said then took a spoonful of her breakfast.Sebastien raised his brows, “are you sure you are fine? Or do you want me to accompany you to your grandfather's company today”Isabelle let out a small gasp then a breathy laugh, “I am fine Sebastien, what makes you think otherwise?” “You seem to have forgotten how much I know you.

    Chapter 59Isabelle followed behind master Wilson and they walked into the spacious meeting room where a long table was placed in the center with office chairs surrounding it side by side. Master Wilson walked further into the room and sat at the head of the table. Isabelle just stood in the corner of the room until she was gestured to come over by master Wilson.So she walked and stood just right beside where he sat. Master Wilson rang a bell beside him to draw the people's attention towards himself and their chatters died down as soon as they saw the seriousness in master wilson’s face.They knew when it was time for business, he shouldn't be messed with. “Silence. The meeting will commence now” master Wilson stretched further.“As you all should know by now or at least most of you with the exemption of the new workers, this is my beloved granddaughter Isabelle. She has been brought back to this company because she will be occupying or playing an important role as from today.” Mas

    Chapter 60Isabelle left the meeting room and went to occupy her new office which was on the last floor. All through the way to the last floor, she was hoping she would not bump into Violet because she was not ready to see her at that point. Most importantly she hoped she won't find violet in the office as the new office she was going to occupy was formerly occupied by violet. When she got to the front of the office door she saw it was left slightly open and then she pushed the door wider so she could have a view of the interior.She was surprised at the scene that met her. Violet sat on a couch in the office with bloodshot eyes and a red puffy face. She looked like she had just sobbed the living daylights out of herself. Isabelle did not know how to console her without looking like a bad person. But she decided to try. Just as she took a step towards her, Violet stood up, grabbed her things and walked out of the office without even sparing Isabelle a glance.If Isabelle felt bad b

    Chapter 61Violet locates her new office, two floors below her previous office and she felt so sad because the demotion was evident even in the size of the office and the equipment in the office. Master Wilson had demoted her to the extent that she was even in a way lower position than most people in the company.She was offered this position because that was the only free space left in the company and she did not really have a choice. Getting a new job would not be easy so she just had to make do with this one.If she had a choice, she would not have accepted the offer. As she arranged her office documents on the black wooden desk in front of the office chair, she had a flashback to when Isabelle walked into her former office. She knew Master Wilson's grandchild was the one that requested for this position. She couldn't help but feel bitter because if Isabelle had not come back, she wouldn't have lost her position in the company. Her heart filled with hatred for Isabelle and she k

    Chapter 62 As soon as Miranda stormed out of master Wilson's office, she made it her next mission to locate where Violet's new office was. She knew it would definitely be on a floor lower than the previous one but she was not sure of the exact office.She asked around and soon enough she was shown to the office. She knocked on the door before making her way inside.She was surprised at the interior, it looked so inferior. Miranda never knew there were inferior looking offices in Wilson's family company. Violet was startled when she saw who it was that entered. Miranda and Violet had never been on good terms so she had her guard up when she saw it was Miranda that walked in.“What can I help you with?” She asked. Dropping all what she was doing and facing Miranda. Miranda raised her hands, “chill with the hostility. I am not here for trouble. I just have something to say that might be of interest to you as much as it is to me” Violet raised her brows, “perhaps I should offer you a

    Chapter 63Isabelle had already closed for the day and was packing her things, getting ready to go home, when she got a call from Sebastien. She picked it up immediately.“Hello!” She cheerfully greeted a small smile forming on her face and forgetting her tiredness for a moment.“Hi princess. Have you closed for the day?” He asked with so much concern as it was already getting late. “Yes, I have. I am just tidying up some things now. I will be home very soon” Isabelle said, rounding up the arrangement of the documents that were formerly scattered on the table.“Alright baby. Call me when you are ready so I can come pick you up.” Sebastien added thoughtfully, he guessed she must really be tired and would not want her to go through the stress of public transport. “You know, I am actually really fine and you don't have to bother yourself with coming to pick me up” Isabelle chuckled, while wiping beads of sweat off her face with a handkerchief. She stared at the ac in the corner of the

    Chapter 64The next day, Isabelle got a call from her mother. Her mother called to find out how her first day at work went the previous day and Isabelle told her it went well and she explained all the details to her mother.She even told her mother that the position master Wilson offered her was initially occupied by someone else and she felt bad that she might have offended the person that was previously in that position because the person got demoted.Her mother also then offered the same suggestion that she should try talking to the person and explaining what really happened. Master Wilson was always causing unnecessary drama in her daughter's life. *******************Violet sat in front of her dressing mirror as she was getting ready for work that morning and thought about the events of the previous day. How she was demoted in front of the entire board members to how she was moved to a smaller office and finally to the most shocking thing. Miranda actually coming to meet her to

Violet had a neutral expression the whole while Isabelle was explaining so Isabelle found it hard to decipher what was going on in her head or how she really felt about the whole thing.Isabelle made her way back to her office and sat on her large and comfortable office chair. She sighed, because she had already tried her best but the response she got from Violet was not convincing enough.She brought out her mobile phone and dialed Sebastien's number, and he picked up on the first ring. “Hi princess” he greeted cheerfully. “Hi baby. I already spoke to Violet” Isabelle said, going straight to the point. “Wonderful. And how did that go?” Sebastien asked, wanting to know the details of how the whole thing went.“Well, I can't really say because I could not tell how she took the whole thing. Her entire expression was neutral but I explained everything to her” Isabelle told Sebastien “And s

In Fact she expected him to be even more pissed off that she couldn’t stand her grounds but instead had to call him.” “Allow him in, right now!” Those were the final words of the manager before the call ended. “You can make your way to the manager’s office, sir. The manager is expecting you” the receptionist said, fixing her gaze on Sebastien. All that could run through her mind was, ‘who is this man’Sebastien made his way down the hall and finally located the manager’s office.

He had just broken the news to Mason that the plan didn’t work out well. “We should be glad that you are still getting a huge amount of patronage in comparison to your previous sales. It means, we have been able to tarnish the image of the hunt’s resource company even though the building still stands” Tony Wilson tried to explain to his friend. “And what happens if eventually the rumors get cleared up?” Mason interjected. “I don’t see that happening anytime soon. It isn’t easy to clear up rumors like that. The masses already have an impression of the hunt’s resource company.” Tony tried to encourage himself and Mason. Mason was quiet for a while. He thought about what Tony was saying and concluded that he had a point. The major thing was that his company was still having massive sales and that is all that

Please just stay here, please!” Adeline said, tightening her grip on Isabelle’s arm. Meanwhile, Sebastien on the other hand stood fearlessly as the gangsters approached him. He had a mini walkie talkie on him, so he gripped it as the gangsters got closer to him.He ordered the delta squadron army to start coming through the walkie talkie and he awaited their arrival.
