Nathan decided to call Gianni when he got back home but she must have blocked his contact or something because it refused to connect. After multiple tries, he gave up and instead went to look for her on the internet. He found her IG and messaged her there and hoped that she would respond. If not, he would have to travel to Italy just to speak to her. something he should have done from the beginning. He felt stupid for not listening to her and letting her explain why she didn’t tell him. Wait, she did tell him why. He just didn’t believe her. He treated her the same way Sebastian had treated her and thinking about it, he would understand if she decided to completely cut him off. Heck, he told her he would never speak to her again.“I should just leave her alone,”He said to himself. He decided that if she didn’t respond to the messages that he left her he would really let her be. not for long though because going by what Sebastian had said, he would still be needing Gianni and the last
“Nathan, good to see you are here,”His team leader said which drew all attention to him. Nathan slightly bowed in greeting. “As I already sent you all, a team member will be moving to another department today and like we always do, we will send him off and give him our blessing. In this case, though. He is someone really important to the future of this company. Our beloved chairman’s son who has been with us for the past few weeks. Even though his stay with us had been short, we can’t deny that he did a wonderful job,”His team leader said and to his surprise, everyone clapped. Knowing that most of them badmouthed him when they thought he wasn’t listening made it even more shocking and kind of funny. He wished the team leader didn’t do everything so dramatically. “Thank you,”Nathan said after the clapping subsided. He didn’t know what else to say. He knew everyone was looking at him and could almost feel the envy in the air. He couldn’t blame them because he would have felt the sa
“Ahh, Nathan, what did you do?”He cussed at himself. Gianni didn’t deserve the way he treated her and on top of that, she was going through divorcing his dad and he never once thought of how everything would have been like for her. She might not have had romantic feelings for Sebastian but she definitely loved the old man. If she didn’t love him, she wouldn’t have stayed with him or gone out of her way to find his son. “Well, at least I have something in common with my dad, why does it have to be hurting Gia?”He lamented. His phone buzzed and he checked.“Dad,”He said when he took the call. “You have been shown to your new office, right? How do you like your office? If there is anything you don’t like in there, you can request for it to be changed. The office is huge but a little old fashion,”He was right about the office being a little old-fashioned but Nathan didn’t mind. He wasn’t in the office for the aesthetic. He was more interested in working and pushing the company highe
Nathan spent the rest of the morning getting familiar with his new role and office. By lunch, he called the director in charge of the secretaries and informed them that he needed assistants and he got an immediate answer. They recently employed some secretaries and they sent him a list of those who were most qualified. He asked to see them in person and spent the rest of the afternoon interviewing them himself. He was able to get three which he was sure could work with him. “Thank you, gentlemen and lady, you will resume working for me by tomorrow, as you can already tell, I recently got promoted so we have to work hand in hand to get things done, I hope we get along really well,”He told the three he had picked. “Of course, thank you for the honor, sir, we will do our best,”The only woman among them said. Nathan nodded. “That’s good to know. You can go now,”He dismissed them and went right back to work. When he lifted his head again, it was past the closing hour. He packed up an
“If you are not going to pay for him then get your goody-two-shoes self out of my way,”Trent said and pushed him. “You think you can intimidate me like before? Think again, bastard,”Nathan responded and pushed him right back. his men charged towards him trying to fight him. “No, leave him to me, I can handle him just fine,”Trent called out to them. They all stepped back. Nathan had not thought of fighting but then, Trent threw a punch at him which he successfully dodged. He threw one of his own which landed on his nose and threw him back a few meters. Nathan glared at him and waited for him to regain his posture. “Whoa, I can see that you have grown some wings but let me tell you that you are still the beggar boy I know, I am going to teach a lesson that you will not forget,”He threatened and staggered towards him. He tried to punch Nathan again and this time he was able to deliver a punch which Nathan returned. They continued going back and forth at each other until Nathan hea
“Worry about yourself and what you have caused by sticking your goody-two-shoes self in something that has nothing to do with you. You should be scared of what the boss might do to you,”Trent said. maybe he was just talking or maybe he didn’t know yet just what kind of power being an Ulmer comes with because if he knew the half of it. He would know that Dylan can’t go against an Ulmer and win. “You will learn,”Nathan concluded and stood up to leave. “Do you really think this is my first rodeo? I have been in and out more times than you can count, I would be out before you even get home,”Trent called after him. Nathan turned and smirked before he walked away. He was in for a revelation. He went straight to the police chief’s office and warned him not to even think of letting Trent go if he didn’t want to face the higher-ups. Nathan wasn’t one to brag but he did pull Ulmer's name to drive his point home. He had the influence and he made up his mind that he would not shy away from u
“Oh my God, that’s great news, congratulations big brother,”They both chorused, rose out of their chairs, and came to hug him. “Thank guys, so, you don’t have to worry about me,”He told them when they settled back down. Nathan decided to let them know that Sebastian would like to see them. He still hadn’t told Nelly the truth but he was sure Nora already did. “Nel, you know Sebastian Ulmer is my real dad, right?”He asked. “Yes, I saw the news and Nora also told me.”She responded. “That’s right. We might have to move to his mansion. I haven’t spoken to him about it just yet but I thought of it. My dad, he is sick. I really don’t want to waste what little time we might have left with him so if you guys don’t mind moving into the mansion, I would talk to him about it. I am sure it would please him,”Nathan told them. It just crossed his mind and he thought it would be best. He needed all the knowledge he could get to run the company and to do that, he would need to be close to Se
Nathan started his day with a meeting with some of the directors and executives including Pedro who didn’t look happy when he found out about Nathan’s new position in the company. In fact, Pedro went out of his way to ask Nathan some pretty crazy questions about what he could do to help grow the company. Of course, Nathan didn’t let him win. He told him off each time he asked a stupid and unrelated question and even threatened to throw him out of the meeting room if he kept asking irrelevant questions which finally shut him up long enough for the meeting to end. “You might think you have arrived but I can tell you that you haven’t even started just yet. Just because Sebastian decided to give you a position that you don’t deserve,”Pedro said, following Nathan to his office after the meeting. Nathan paused and turned to him. “If I were you, I would give up and try to get as much as I can before I get thrown out. I am not you so yeah. You are going to get thrown out with nothing to yo
