After the introductions to the members of the marketing department of the company, Nathan was assigned an office, he never expected to be given a special office but guessed the chairman’s son’s privilege was already working for him. His office was big and spacious, the windows were transparent and he could see the outside from his office anyone who could look up to the ninth floor of the tall building would definitely see his office, there was a huge table close to the window and three chairs, a shelf that mainly contains books that he assumed were business books, and also a couple of files were sitting on the table. Nathan walked into the office and breathed in the fresh smell that he has always dreamed of, this place was perfect for him and he wanted to start work almost immediately. He couldn’t contain his joy and did a little happy dance. He felt embarrassed and stopped after a moment. “You have made it Nathan, now let’s work hard and hit the top soon.”He encouraged himself. H
Barely a week after Nathan started working at the office, he got told he would be given a project by his team leader. No, he never expected it to come so fast but according to Demon, his team leader, it was the chairman’s order and he was to work on the deal on his own. Nathan almost thought he had been joking but right now, he was staring at the mail that confirmed the project, and all files related to it were already sent to him. Yeah, the week barely started but it was definitely going to be a long busy week for him. They didn’t even let him rest before sending the mail to him. It still felt like they made a mistake but the mail was addressed to him and the file on his table had his name on it. “I can do this,”He told himself as he dropped his bag and sat down. The advantage of having his own office was that he didn’t have to deal with anyone, as long as he wasn’t required to meet them because it would have been hell of embarrassing for people to see him go through various stages
“I don’t do much, I am only just learning, my team leader, gives me past projects to go through, and I write and audit them and send them back to him, he makes necessary corrections and sends them back, I am also given some fresh projects to look into but this is the first time that I am to work solo, okay not solo, with you on a project and I am super excited to share what I have learned since I started working here,”Nathan excitedly recounted to her. “Wait, how are you so happy to get a job that might stress you out already? You barely even started working here, like one week, that’s how long you have been here, I am just curious to know,” She questioned, removing her hands from his table and crossing them over her chest. If only she knew how nervous he was. ‘’I am excited but also nervous, I know I will do well and I like to work. This has been my dream since I was young, I went to business school because I was interested in becoming a guru in business,”He recounted to her and
Nathan stared at the email he just got wondering if the sender had made a mistake, he hasn’t even submitted a proposal, he was still working on it and planned on calling to schedule a meeting later once he put some finishing touches to his proposal, so how did they already get his proposal and why does it look like they don’t want to continue the business. Nathan dialed his number but it went straight to voicemail. “Hey, Nathan, what’s going on? Why are you frowning so early on a Monday morning? I know working sucks but cheer up, just two weeks ago you were excited to work here,”Gianni said as she walked into his office. Even though she was given her own office with bigger space and better furniture, the woman refused to stay in her office, instead, she spent the three to four hours she spends in the company in his office. People were starting to look at them weirdly but Gianni seemed not to care. He didn’t care either and that wasn’t the issue on the ground right now, he had pressi
Nathan drove to the address that Alec had given to him. He got there in less than thirty minutes, the office complex was small compared to Ulmer’s Holding but it was still bigger than most one-person owned company, he read a lot about Alec over the weekend too, and found out the man was a self-made billionaire who has businesses in a lot of countries and was always looking for new ways to expand. The current project that he was working on was related to Alec's influence in Greece. Sebastian was planning on expanding to Greece and Alec had a great advantage as he owns a lot of properties in Greece so Sebastian wanted his help and in exchange, Nathan proposed that he can get a stake in the company once it is established and also, they can work together to improve his influence in Australia since he wasn’t that big here yet. He hoped he would be able to convince him to take them up on it. Nathan aspires to be like him. Yes, he would not be able to do that now seeing that he had a mega st
Nathan didn’t see or hear from Gianni for the rest of the week, he wanted to call her but he didn’t. reason being that he wanted her to see the fault in what she did by not letting him know before submitting the proposal even though he found out it wasn’t her fault that the deal almost fell through, he still hated that she didn’t let him know before doing it even though he knew if she had not, Alec would have believed Pedro’s words and he would have lost for real. He wanted her to see the wrong that she did so even though he hated not talking to her and the fact that her absence in the office was felt, he still didn’t call her. Instead, he focused on working hard. He spoke with Alec a couple of times over the week and they both agreed that after Alec returns from vacation, he would go with him to Greece to find a good place to set up the new business. “Nathan, I am sorry,”Gianni said walking into Nathan’s office. Nathan looked up from what he was doing, it took her seven whole days
Nathan decided to spend the weekend at home with his sisters. after he started working at the company, he had limited time to spend with them, they all left together for work and school in the morning but by the time he returned from work, they would already be in bed. Not like his sisters were complaining but he used to have time for them, times when he asked them questions about how their day went and what they have been up to and he wanted to do that again. He was seated by the pool watching his sisters do their own thing when his phone rang. He picked it up when he saw who it was, thinking that she just wanted to say hi. “Hey, Gia,”He said in greeting. “Where are you right now?” “I am at home,”He told her sensing that everything wasn’t okay by how she sounded. “Nathan, can you please come to the mansion right now? Seb is having a crisis and he wants to see you, you have to hurry,”She informed. Well, so much for spending the whole day with his sister, he got up and picked u
Nathan spent the remaining of the day at the mansion. He was sad about how everything went down and was worried for Gianni. On top of that, he had to donate his blood because the doctor said he needed fresh O rhesus negative blood and that was his blood type. He didn’t mind donating if that would help the old man out. When Nathan finally arrived home after making sure Gianni would be okay on her own, he found his sister, Nora waiting for him even though it was quite late. “What are you doing awake? It is late,”He told her as he sat down tiredly. The stress of today and what played out drained all of his energy that he just wanted to sleep and wake up when everything was okay again but things didn’t look like it would be okay any time soon. “I was waiting for you, I need to know something,”She said, folding her hands against her chest. “Okay, what do you want to know?”He asked. “Nathan? Is it true? You are Sebastian Ulmer’s son?”Nora asked. Of course, he should have known she
