What do you think will happen in the conference room? Also, I want to say a big thank you to everyone taking his or her time to read my book. It means so much to me.
James leaned back on the chair trying so hard to picture what was going on in Lucas's mind, saying that he knew the best solution to eradicate the error he had caused. “See, Lucas, I'm tired of this constant silence coming out from you. Do you have anything meaningful to say or not?” James couldn't hold it anymore so he decided to ask him a simple question. “I was thinking of the solution in my mind and all honesty, I don't know how you would react to it that's the major reason I've been holding it back to myself.” Lucas finally admitted the major reason why he has been keeping quiet for too long. “Really? Is that all that you have to say right now? After I waited for over thirty minutes while you were being silent just to get this from you.” James reacted to his obnoxious excuse. “James, I'm trying so hard to protect our friendship and the solution I have in my head right now sounds trespassing.” Lucas cried out loud to him. “And, do you think I care if it will ruin our fri
“I can't argue with you anymore but everything you said in your words is nothing but the plain truth.” James felt it hard to give him his answer but finally, he let the words out of his mouth. “Now you see why I said that everything still matters with you as long as Mason is still making things difficult for us.” “But, I'm not really in support of the solution you have in mind, Lucas.” He cried out to him still trying to absorb everything that Lucas said to him. “What other possible solution do you think we can use to restrategize after all I've been the one bringing out ideas. So, how about I get to hear from you?” “Hear from me? Do you think I have a smart brain like you that you want me to keep bringing up ideas?” “Thank you for acknowledging the fact that I have a smart brain but you didn't acknowledge the fact that the idea I brought to you is smart enough for us to start working on it.” “Lucas, I think now is high time for you to leave my office.” he turned his chair bac
She gently placed her hands on his left chin and whispered into his ears, “What is the right time, and where is the right place we can have this conversation if not here?” “Rachel please I don't want us to start what we can't finish so I'd rather just send you a location so that we can take it up from there.” He retracted her hands back to her. “In that case then I can see that you are way too different from other guys and I don't mind waiting patiently for you until we get to know each other better.” she composed herself and smiled at him. “Alright! If you say so I'll catch up with you later.” he patted her at her back and headed over to get the exit door. “How was the conversation between you and your friend, James?” she threw the question at him when though Lucas was trying his best to avoid answering that type of question. “It went well, Racheal and I'm super glad that you asked about it. But, for now, I have an important thing to do at my office.” He opened the exit door
“Ouch! I think It's all twisted right now.” Louisa cleaned the blood coming out from her nose while she struggled to get up on her feet. Precious didn't even bother whether her shoe injured Louisa or not. What she was more concerned about was the fact that she had to be in the conference room before her boss Sir Micheal. She pushed the door open and was surprised to see everyone seated at their respective seat with their eyes focused on her. She felt uncomfortable at first but within her, she was searching for the next available seat to sit on. She scanned through the room and found an empty chair beside where Mason sat. She hurried straight up to sit on it before anyone tried to occupy that space for her. “Excuse me! Is anyone sitting down here or it's available for anyone to sit on.” She pulled the chair backwards waiting for Mason to give her the response she's been waiting for. “Hmmm….. You can sit on it there is no one sitting down on it,” he responded to her with his
Everyone in the conference room looked around as they heard Micheal instruct Mason to stand up. “What must he have done this time around? Is he about to lose his job or something for his incompetence?” Jason asked his colleague who sat closer to him. “I really can't say about that but from the look of things one can easily say that something is about to happen. Let's just sit down and watch out how everything will play out.” The colleague responded to him feeling so relaxed like never before. Mason stood up from his chair and faced his boss, “I'm up already Sir Micheal just as how you've instructed me.” “Thank you for honoring my words but while you are still up do you have any idea who you think might be the one that stole the file away from your desk where you kept it.” Mason looked at all his colleagues and their facial expressions, “Sir Micheal in all honesty I don't know the person I think might be able to do that to me. Everyone seated right here said that they don't know
“Are you trying to play all innocent right now, Jason” Micheal pushed him off his feet. “No sir! This isn't about me playing innocent at all. I’m just a little but bothered about the whole thibg and how I found myself in this situation.” He cries out to him rolling himself on the ground. “You can continue with all your crocodile tears in your eyes but i’ve made my decision already and it is final. Your services are not longer needed in my company.” The words rang in Jason’s ears feeling so mad at himself and unbelievable at the same time, “Sir Micheal I don't have anywbere else to work except this place. Please sir I don't want to loose my job at all.” “Oh really? You don't want to loose your job at all but when you had the opportunity to come outside in a clean slate and tell everyone thga you were the one that his the file you didn't bother to do that at all. My friend will you save your endless crocodile tears.” Micheal kicked him off his feet continuously until he couldn't fe
Knock! Knock! A knock was heard at the door James as he sipped his Hennessy quietly while reflecting on everything that had happened between him and Lucas. Knock! Knock! The sound of the knock was heard the second time and this time around it came louder than before. “What the hell is wrong with you Lucas? I said you should use the door and I'll tell you when next I'll see you. So, What exactly do you want me to say to you this time around? I don't want to see you now is that too much to ask from you.” He vented out to the person behind the door. The door was pushed slowly and a calm feminine voice was heard in the background, “Sir, I came to drop you the contract work that came today from the other company.” Her head was slightly seen at the entrance of the door as she spoke to him. James knew that he has fucked up already so he tried to act as if nothing happened at all. “Oh! About that? You can come drop it on my desk.” He instructed her while placing his face down on his de
“I don't think I should be the one to answer that dumb question you just asked me.” Micheal ignored her reddened eyes and diverted his attention back to his staff. “Oh! Really? If I can't ask you this question who else can I possibly ask? Aren't you the same person that gave this little brat standing before me a promotion so why the fuck can't you give me a fucking promotion?” She yelled back at him not minding that he was her boss. Micheal shook his head and lowered it a bit before giving her a response, “So, if at all I want to give you a promotion can you at least tell me one reason why you think I should give it to you? Like, tell me in a clear terms why you think you deserve one. Go ahead I'm waiting.” He folded hi hands and stomped his feet on the ground continuously to hear her speak. She licked her lips and folded her arms together, “Very good but before I start by telling you why I need a promotion let me start by thanking you for giving me the audience, and secondly let
