Not Your Average Son-in-law 153. The Assignment.
Her eyes focused on a piece of paper before her. It appeared to be a document that she was reading through. But she was not as focused as one would think. Yes, her eyes were pinned on that piece of paper, but her mind wasn't. And this was because of what had happened earlier. Although it had been hours after her mother left, Meghan could not get what she had said off her mind. She was not surprised at how her mother acted because she knew that she was always that way when it had to do with Gavin. She was already used to her family looking down on him,and cussing her out because she choose to be with him, even after everything. But at this point, she did not mind.And honestly, she did not have much to worry about in respect to Gavin. He was her husband and she wanted to be with him, so nothing could change that. But the problem was the assignment. How on earth was she supposed to bring in a meaningful investment just like that? She sighed, turning her focus from the piece of paper to
Not Your Average Son-in-law 154. Sophie To Help.
"Umm..." She cleared her throat. "Can I have a..." As Sophie spoke to the waiter, Meghan watched skillfully. There was a lot going through her mind at that moment, but she was able to hold it in."Do you want anything, ma'am?" The waiter asked as he faced her. Sophie was clearly done placing her order, so it seemed right of him to ask."No." She shook her head immediately and sat upright. The waiter left at once and Sophie turned to face her sister."So sorry I interrupted in that manner. I'm starving. Now, what were you saying?""I really need your help, Sophie." She sighed, her voice almost helpless. "You know how important this assignment is to mom and dad. I wouldn't want to disappoint them. And most of all, I wouldn't want to be fired from the family company. I'm sure you understand.""You're totally right. I understand you. But you know what I do not seem to understand till this very moment? Your relationship with that glorified pauper. I mean why...""Sophie, please. This isn't

About two hours later, Sophie walked into the office hurriedly. With her whole countenance, one would think she was being chased after. She went straight into Meghan's office."Hey you." Meghan smiled as she saw her come in. But as she got closer, the smile dissolved into an uncertain look. "What's wrong?" She asked in concern."We need to go, now!" She emphasized on the last word so much that Meghan was confused. "Go where?" Meghan asked immediately, now ignoring everything she was doing before Sophie came in. "Where I told you about..." She placed both her hands on the desk authoritatively. Meghan still seemed lost so she continued. "Your assignment.""Oh, oh!" Meghan exclaimed, her eyes wide with realization. "Now? Why the hurry?" She asked as she slipped some items into her bag. "Do you want to get this over with or not? Let's go already." Sophie emphasized as she began walking towards the exit of the office."Okay, okay." She agreed and followed behind her. The two ladies got
Not Your Average Son-in-law 156. Play Along.
Good morning, miss. How are you doing?" Mr Adrian said calmly with a smile. His eyes caught sight of Meghan immediately because she was still on her feet. A huge smile swam across his cheek as he stared at her. "Please, have a seat. Good morning.""Good morning, sir." She said almost shyly as she took the next empty seat."Who is this beautiful lady, Sophie?" He asked, his eyes not leaving her face. Meghan clutched the handle of her little bag softly, trying to find comfort in it."This is my sister, Meghan Stallion." She smiled dryly and looked at Meghan from the side of her eyes. Meghan had a place smile on her face as she reminisced all the things her sister had said before coming in. Play along! Play along!! She kept repeating those words in her mind."Wow! I didn't even know you had a sister. Or even one as beautiful as she is." His eyes were still on Meghan as he spoke. "Meghan, this is Mr Adrian, the director of logistics. Mr Adrian is the person I told you about.""Wait..." H
Not Your Average Son-in-law 157. Mr. Director, Sir.
Mr. Adrian did not give it much thought when the women laid down the reasons for coming, he did not even want to give it much thought. He immediately reached out his hand to the cupboard of his table. "If it is investment you want from us, then for sure, just know that you have gotten it. There is no need to make a woman as pretty as you are, stressed. Whatever you need, so long as I am here, you can get it."Meghan was still shocked at the behavior of the director of logistics. He did not act like what she had expected from a man working in such an officer of very good repute."Mr. Director, sir..." Meghan began but got cut off in her speech by him."It's Mr. Adrian to you, please. I have no intention of making you talk to me so formally. You should know that by now. I want you to be free with me, Ms. Meghan. You aren't a mrs right? I mean is there a Mister Meghan somewhere? Does the Stallion family have another son in-law?""Actually..." Meghan felt uncomfortable from deep down her
Not Your Average Son-in-law 158. Gavin’s Interruption.
Before she would open the door completely, she felt a vibration pulse through from the other side, and a knock followed."Wait, who is that?" Mr. Adrian asked. "Don't come in now. "It would seem that the person coming in did not hear perfectly what the bispectacled man had said, and stepped in without knowing that there was someone standing right at the door.Sophie's face was almost slammed by the flat wooden surface of the door, as it swung towards her. She staggered back, nearly falling down. It was a good thing Meghan caught her before she would have fallen to the floor."Who is that blind uncultured swine" Sophie thundered, unable to hide her rage and hoe terribly mad she could become. "Do you not know how to open a door?"She said this, with not a shred of fear of who the person coming in may be. She was almost convinced that it could not be anything more than a low life.""I am so sorry" a familiar voice trumpethed through, giving her a shock."Gavin? Why you—"Meghan hid her

After Mr. Adrian had finished talking to Sophie, he turned towards Gavin and said, "And you, you have been standing here for sometime without saying a word, do not tell me that you actually came here for nothing. What brought you back to the office, Gavin. Please do not tell me that you came to beg for your salary. Please you should know already that I have said what I intend to say, I am not changing my mind."Gavin kept staring at Meghan, ignoring the voice of Mr. Adrian who stared him down. Mr. Adrian thought of that entire ordeal as nothing more than just Gavin intentionally trying to insult him.Two can play at that game, the man thought to himself, drawing am imaginary battle line and pressing his hands hard on to the hard wood of the table."I really do not understand why we still have you working here. Why are you not fired yet for being a total bozo on the job? You really are useless at everything. Everything. Even timing. You should get put of my office right now. But befo

"Husband?" He asked in disbelief, anger pitching in his voice. The line of his eyebrows thickened as a frown set over his face. "Your sister's husband? Gavin?"No words left the lips of anyone in the room. Gavin stood by the door, looking on in confusion as he wondered what exactly was going on. Meghan had an apologetic look on her face and so did Sophie. At this point, she was wondering why I told him who Gavin was to her sister and it made her feel guilty. But almost immediately, she kicked the feeling off, concluding that even if she had not said a word, Gavin's presence had already ruined everything.Meanwhile, Mr Adrian's anger increased when he got no response."Leave my office now." He said in a surprising, calm tone. He moved his seat back to take something out of his cabinet. It was a piece of paper, obviously some document."But Sir...""But what? Leave my office now." He cut in before Sophie could say anything more. This time, he raised his voice, focusing his eyes on them.

Although we are aware of how some of you received the boxes, it was entirely up to your luck whether you chose the correct or incorrect box." As the moderator spoke, they all began to shake and were very concerned about what was in their box.All the delegates began to mutter among themselves because they could not believe that the chest they fought and died for might be worth nothing in the end "So, after everything that happened yesterday, I would not still join the team," one of the delegates thought to himself as he looked at his chest again and reassessed it with

The doctor became enraged and yelled, "Who told her she could get herself dressed up? She is just too stubborn and never listens, I told her she was free to go, not free to do more work."The doctor was furious with her as he was redressing her open wounds; he told the guard that he was fortunate to have discovered her at the time he did; otherwise, she would have died because the wound that opened was directed at her vein, which carried blood, and further delays would have caused her to bleed out even more.The guard was relieved that he managed to save Meghan.
