For a few seconds, Andrew waited for his father to give an answer. And when he saw he was carried away with thoughts, he had to call him.“Father…” his voice sounded audible and deeply worried.His father's attention was called from intense thoughts. “Sorry about that.”“I hope there is no problem?” Andrew was a little worried.“Nah… there is none. Your mother in law and I have no problems, so do not worry yourself, we are on good terms.” His voice was convincing.“Are you sure?” Andrew knew his father might have wanted to cover up. He wanted to be sure.“Very sure, son. Go prepare for the day’s activity.” “Okay. I will be going.” Andrew understood what his father did. He realized he was avoiding that question and he wouldn't need any other question, because he seemed uncomfortable with them.Without hesitation, he walked back to his room with a count of several steps.He closed the door behind him and he stepped towards the bed. He removed all his clothings except his pants. And whe
Andrew arrived at his company that morning. “Good morning, sir.” The assistant president's voice rang into his ear. He shot a glance at her.“Good morning.” He stepped out of his car and the driver closed the door behind him“I want to give you an update about some things.” She alerted.“An update… You can see I just arrived. Can't it wait?” Andrew wasn't ready to hear anything that morning.“It is not that urgent. I was outside when you arrived and that is why I informed you. I will come see you in your office.” “In that case, we don't have a problem. But before you come into my office, just do me a favor, come in the afternoon. I am not feeling too good this morning.” Clara got the caution he gave. “There is no problem. I will do as you have said. I am heading somewhere this morning. I will be back.” She informed.“Okay.” Andrew walked into the company. He walked directly to his office after he closed the distance.“Good morning, sir.” That's the voice of Bella. “Good morning. My
The representatives raised their brows and their countenance fell. One of them managed to talk, maybe he would be able to convince him.“We know you don't run a charity organization. We know your company to be a very prestigious company and that is why we have come this far. Our company is not emerging and I am afraid that is the only amount of money we can come up with. And the thing is that we need the best hand on this. Please, help us.” Andrew realized they formally asked for his help.He relaxed backwards and he peeped at the project again. He exhaled. “I don't like this kind of deal.” His voice was firm.“We are saying you like that deal. Please help us.” They thought his voice was so lean while they were persuading him.Andrew glanced at his secretary. She lowered her head slightly so he could understand he should accept them. It was a tough one for Andrew as he continued to contemplate.“Please Mr Andrew…” there were a lot of pleadings from every side, even his secretary an
“No problem, Mr Andrew. We are not crossed in any way. Let us get to the work of the day. We have no time to waste.” One of the stakeholders voices his mind.Andrew exhaled. “Okay. I welcome all stakeholders. I was quite surprised when I saw your tantrums for a meeting. What is the problem?” Andrew was curious and at the same time, he was concerned.“It's nothing, Mr Andrew. Recently, the company has had cases of intense setbacks and a lot of big problems no one expected. But you have been able to pull through which we are so happy about. But there is something we want to talk about.” A courageous woman spoke up.“Okay. What is it?” Andrew wanted them to go straight to the point.“Okay. Are our shares safe?” The courageous woman put out that question and Andrew had to swallow his saliva twice to answer the question.As simple as that question was, it was a difficult one to answer.“Okay. I understand your fears and I bet if I am in your shoes, I will want to know what is happening. So
Andrew stepped out of the company. He walked into his car after it was opened by the driver.The driver sat in the driver's seat and he started the car engine. Few minutes later. They got home. The driver opened the door for Andrew to come out. He stepped out of the car.He was looking a bit tired and when he stepped into the mansion, he was welcomed by one of his steward.“Welcome, Young master.” Her voice was thin and on her face was a smile. “Thank you.” The steward collected his briefcase. She helped him carry it until they reached his room. He stepped into his room and he went directly to his bed.“I am so tired.” His thoughts rang aloud. He could feel how the weakness ran through his body.“Would you be picky for your dinner?” The steward asked if he needed any special preference.“No, I won't like that. Just follow the normal order.” “Okay. I will take my leave now.”She walked out of his room. Andrew breezed out. His back was on the bed and he had to shut his eyes.Few min
Andrew sat on the space chair in the dining room. Maintaining a pleasant gesture, he honorably opened his food. The steward wasn't around, so he had to do everything by himself.No one was speaking to one other. Everyone concentrated on their meal. That was something beautiful for Andrew. He doesn't want any reason Kate would use unpalatable words.Kate coughed gently. Andrew raised his head. He wondered what the cough was for. He was not scared of her. He was just tired of her regular vulgar language and most times it was a provocative m “Mother. Can I pick more meat?” Kate could have just picked a meat but due to her dark intentions, she was bent on making fun of Andrew.Emily was surprised. That question was kind of absurd. She knew her daughter was getting somewhere.“Yes, you can pick some.” She gave the license.Everyone on the table were still cool with that.She picked some. “Thank you mother.” She was appreciative.Emily was surprised. She shot a glance at her. “Why the sudd
The next day.The weather that morning was very chilly. It was ascertained there was an increase in temperature. Andrew had to fold himself in his duvet. With that, the cold was still piercing and when it was morning, he had to cover himself with other clothings. The cold was too much.After he had spent some more minutes on the bed. He realized if he doesn't vacate that bed, he will get late for work and that wasn't his version for the day.His every day was to make sure the company grew daily even if it was in the least aspect. He was not concerned if people were seeing it or not. All needed was his company's growth.Andrew finally decided to leave his bed. He stepped down from his bed, he didn't bother taking off his clothings. He went into the bathroom and he made use of the hot water in the bathtub.Andrew realized that morning was not for showering. It was for an immersion. Andrew removed his clothings immediately and his water was ready.The cold was slapping and he didn't h
The driver swallowed the saliva in his mouth. He was surprised by her words and he wondered if the both of them were in competition.“Don't mind my ill-mannered attitude. Good morning, mam.” He bowed slightly.Kate was pleased that he showed the same level of respect to her. “Good morning.” She raised her eyebrows and she walked into the car immediately. Andrew sat down.The driver closed the door and he went to his seat. He started the car.And when the car was engaged, he turned on the AC to the level Andrew does love.It was cold that morning. Andrew didn't want to freeze“Switch on the heater. Off the AC.” Andrew's voice pierced his ear.“Okay, Young master.” Soon, heat began to circulate in the room although it was pleasing to Kate, she was angry Andrew was giving orders. “The heat is too high. Lower it.” She wanted the driver to listen to her.“I am sorry mam. Except the Young master wa
