Selena and Dominic stepped into work together the next day with their hands locked together. It was their first official welcome party into the office so a few members of staff gathered at the reception to welcome them. A few balloons were popped and some bottles of champagne too. It was almost a small work party.Dominic didn't expect them to do that for him but he was glad nonetheless. "Thank you everyone for helping with this preparation.""I really appreciate it."They chatted for a few minutes before finally allowing everyone to go back to their various departments. Dominic walks straight to his office. The investors were supposed to be here before twelve p.m. That would have given the cleaners enough time to be able to do all that they should do before their arrival.Selena plopped down on the chair and smiled. Life was good, everything was going according to plan and she couldn't help but be grateful. There was something else that she was trying to do, which was to brush up her
At the end of the presentation, the investors began to clap Selena and Dominic was busy smiling. He loved the fact that she was ready to give her all yi the presentation and was finally able to convince his clients without any atom of doubt that they needed to invest in their company. It was wonderful seeing something like this after a long period of time. "I think we can proceed to the next thing on the line which is none other than having to make sure that we sign the deeds. That's the issue."She stared at him and was happy at the proud look that adorned his face. If anyone still had any bias toward them it was probably because they just decided to have a problem with her. Her position was solidified in the company.Marcel waited till the investors had finished signing all the papers before lifting her up and spinning her around. "What the hell?!" Dominic's voice boomed throughout the room like thunder. Marcel smirked while Selena smacked his head upside. Why would he love peace
Marcel felt challenged by the words as he walked out of the house and there was no problem whatsoever. All that would have happened was already sorted out and he was only waiting till he got a better job before he was able to come back.Truth be told, there was a reason that this wasn't working out. He didn't want to work for anyone because he hated being bossed around, so instead of him working for anybody at this point, he would rather invest that time and energy in working for someone else. That way he would have rest and would be able to do whatever was expected of him. Selena walked in with a smile on her face and was waiting to see how Dominic was going to act when he finally had the chance and time to inspect what had been going on in the office behind his back. "I saw Marcel leaving hurriedly, I hope that you didn't get into a spat?" She asked and he shook his head with a small smile on his face. "Okay... so are you guys okay?" She asked him and he nodded happily. There was
Dominic and Selena stared at the man before them because he was acting very seriously. It was as if he knew the reason he was here already and there was nothing that anybody could say that would deter him from doing what he should at least at the moment. There was a reason he was staring at Magnus.The person had the same tone of words and it was almost as if he was talking to his twin. "This is where Marcel comes in. Come inside," he invited Magnus before staring at the message again. He would rebuke him inside the room at least that was better than openly where everyone could see and know what was happening. Magnus stared at him in half surprise while he also glared at him wondering why he was acting like a spineless coward. "Do you think that I'm joking?" Dominic asked. There was a reason that Magnus was reticent. Who knew what Dominic had in store for him because of the way he was constituting a nuisance? Dominic walked in first leaving the door open for him to decide if he wan
After watching everything that had been happening at least for the greater part of the day, Dominic finally decided that he was going to do the needful which was making sure that Todd was released but also refunding his entire money. "Now that you've heard what your beloved has said. I think you can see that without doubt you need to refund my money. You're automatically sacked and have lost the relationship at the same time." He replied and Todd looked down, guilt weighing him."I don't know what I was thinking, the problem is that I can't recover the money at the moment because there was a problem. I have to actually see the business through before I can claim the benefits. I'm sorry sir. I promise that I will get it back. I just need to be out there." Dominic considered Todd. He just saw an overly ambitious young man. It wasn't as though starting one's company was bad but the way he went about it didn't make it honorable. He only pitied Emily who had finally thought that life was
After seeing that he was of no use to the couple, because Selena was busy staring at her husband like her life depended on it, Marcel decided to go away.On his way out of the hospital, he bumped into Louis. "Sorry, I didn't see you." He apologized and she snorted and rolled her eyes. Upon lifting her gaze, she was stunned. " What are you doing here, Marcel?" She queried him.Marcel was shocked at meeting the lady he had a very giant crush on that he was planning to search for. She had disappeared off the face of the earth. "You have a baby?" He asked.She rolled her eyes while rubbing her foot with one hand. " Obviously, dude. Where have you been in the last couple of years? I would have sworn that you disappeared off the face of the earth. What happened to you?" Marcel for the first time was finding it very hard to speak and all that he was thinking of was the fact that he wanted to get over and done with this conversation as his heart was shattering. He had imagined a future with
Dominic and Selena stood with Louis over her husband's corpse. Marcel stood afar off as pity filled his heart while watching tears stream down Louis' eyes. It was painful to watch because he knew what it felt to lose a fellow that one loved. It was always very painful and he hoped that she was finally able to get over it."You didn't have to go." Louis whispered when she saw the nurses zipping the bag. it was final, her husband was dead and there was nothing anyone could do about it."Is there a way that we can get you out of this place?" Marcel inquired softly because he was feeling very pitiful about her. She was not feeling too well so all that she had to do was to make sure that she was away from the corpse at least every few days until she finally decided to have the time and energy for it."She will not be proceeding with the rites and services because you're not in the right frame of mind for all of those things." Marcel told Dominic, making him raise a brow at his brother's au
The next day had Selena running the errands of a house girl cum funeral event planner because Louis was out of her element and all that she was trying to be involved in but it wasn't just easy for her. "I don't know what to say to thank you all for what you did for me. I'm sorry for the stress that I've put you guys through. I would have to sell my house. I can't even stay a minute there without being reminded of my late husband." Selena nodded in understanding. "I get you. I just need you to speak with Marcel. He's quite hurt by your words. I don't think that I've ever seen him in that state. It can be very distracting for all of us. I mean, he's been in love with you for the longest while and hearing you say those words just made him shut off. I think you didn't mean it but you can still make amends at least before it's too late" "Good then, I will talk to him as soon as I can because I'd admit I wasn't supposed to speak to him that way and I'm even ashamed." She replied.Selena
