I do recall Ceo Derrick Paul sending me an email asking to meet me in person years back and I refused because I was trying to get settled down in Natalia's family house. Sometimes I felt as if I was being followed by the spy's Natalia Father assigned just for me and didn't want to get Natalia into trouble back then by going to another company.It would seem suspicious.Mr. Gabriel, Natalia's father might think I was trying to get info about his company and feed it to another company because they were not in a good place during that period and her Father wasn't fond of her then and was looking for a way to toss her out of the house.But now she's suddenly Daddy's girl because she was giving suggestions that were bringing in money.I snapped out of my thoughts when I remembered I was with CEO Derrick and he was reading my every move and appearance. I could tell he knew I was spacing out.I cleared my throat to ease some of the tension I felt because even though he welcomed me with ope
CEO Derrick Paul seemed to be in thoughts for a while before he spoke again."What position would you like in the company?" He asked me with a meaningful look.I was taken aback by his question because I just came to be a normal employee."I didn't come here to take anybody's position away from them. I can just be a normal office worker for now. I just need to be here because I noticed that the company finance was falling right ?" I asked."Always observate,how do you manage to know about being a businessman this well?" CEO Derrick asked.I took out my file I was holding and dropped it on his table and pushed it towards him."Even though I haven't worked in the field physically, I know about being a businessman because I went to an online business school,it's in my file." I told him.He dropped his cup of coffee, opened the file, went through it, smiled and dropped it back on the table."You even went to business school. That's great even if it's online it's still the same thing nowad
CEO Derrick Paul didn't pay any mind to me as I walked into his office but I could hear the sound of the game he was playing coming from his phone as he had a small frown on his face.I wondered if I was suddenly hallucinating.Did depriving myself of sleep cause me to see things out of the ordinary.Is he playing video games when his company is in chaos?Isn't he too old to be playing video games?"What no!no ! No! Come on! what's this nonsense stupid game!" He suddenly shouted in frustration as he sighed dramatically."I hit his chin and he flew up, how didn't he die?" He asked rhetorically to no one in particular."Tck." He clicked his tongue then he turned to me and a bright smile formed on his face as he saw the bewildered look on my face."Thomas you came,this silly computer killed me in a game can you believe it?" He complained."I was expecting you later, not now,do you want something from me?" He asked with raised eyebrows.Do I need something from you?Are you serious right
I don't think I was ready to hear stories like this,coming out of my marriage with Natalia hurt me a lot and I can't imagine what CEO Derrick Paul must have gone through when something even worse happened to him." Since I couldn't give my late wife all she wanted, she went to another man that could give her the luxurious life she dreamed of and sent me a text saying she will take the kids along with her. It was after their death that I saw the text." He sighed and paused and adjusted his tie.It seemed as if he felt suffocated recalling this memory." My late wife's lover had planned a trip for her with my kids like a family,because according to my ex wife I promised but I couldn't provide it and the accident occured on their way to the airport to meet her lover…" He pauses to laugh.It was more like a dry laugh and I think he was trying to cover up the hurt evident in his voice.How could his late wife do something like this?I didn't know how to console him and I didn't i
After having my meal I took my phone,sat on the couch and made myself comfortable as I was browsing through my old messages.If I suspect it correctly I know that Grace may try to contact me.I'm not sure she was working that day at Mr. Gabriel's house the day they drove me out. I don't have her number to contact her but I'm sure she will have her ways to text me.All the messages that I received from unknown numbers were starting from why haven't you returned?Gosh! Natalia can't you just give up.I got tired at one point but a message caught my attention."Thomas, how are you?" I could see the beginning of the message so I opened it."Thomas how are you?I heard what happened when I came to work two days later after the incident and I tried calling with my sister's number and the number got blocked after my first call. I hope you get this message in good health. Please take care of yourself and don't fail to contact me if you need any help...Grace." The text message ended.The
I waited patiently for her to speak up but she didn't and I grew impatient."Grace, don't make my thoughts wander too far." I stated."Um..Mr Thomas you won't remember but there was a time in the past when I told you to help me and call my cell phone because I don't know where I kept it when we were in the kitchen." Grace began to tell me how she got my number. "You were eating your breakfast and you helped me call my phone number..well that is how I got your number." She revealed."Oh I don't remember such an event happening." I sighed In relief,her explanation was reasonable .Grace was the one always giving me breakfast to eat so I was sure something like this must have happened but I didn't remember when."Well you won't remember because it has been like 2 years or so." Grace said softly."Wait, you saved my number from 2 years ago?" I was surprised by her revelation."Um..yes." She hummed in reply. "I just saved the number in case I needed to call you. I haven't had any t
Waking up the next morning knowing that everything was going according to my plan, I felt suddenly rejuvenated with a bright smile on my face. I was still that exhausted no doubt but the happiness and accomplishment I just got made me extremely happy that I was sure I wanted to go to work today.At least now I was sure that I would be able to accomplish something before the 6 months that Oliver gave me expired.I don't think I want to see Oliver's nasty side because he acts braze at times.Even though CEO Derrick told me to stay at home I needed to go see him.I got up from the bed, ran myself a bath and took a really long refreshing bath. I wasn't actually going to work. I just wanted to go to work and see CEO Derrick Paul and celebrate our little victory and maybe come back home.This was worth celebrating given the sleepless nights I had.I stepped out of the bathtub after what felt like the most refreshing bath I have ever had.I wiped my body with a towel ,took a rob
I think CEO Derrick seemed to notice how I tensed up awaiting his answer and he smirked."I told them the truth that the idea came from one of the shareholders as well that being you, I don't take credit for the work of another man that's just shallow." He smiled.Now I know this man is just simply amazing.I don't know that such good people that had respect for someone else's hard work still exist."Thank you sir." I said in relief.I wanted to gain the trust of the shareholders of the company and this was a good start."Besides I wanted you to gain acknowledgement from the shareholder and other important personnel." Ceo Derrick revealed."We will be having a dinner meeting tomorrow evening and I will officially introduce them to you. We also have gotten more investors in our company. I am just glad that this is working out well." He informed me."It will be an honor to go for the dinner please take care of me sir." I informed him and he nodded happily."Since you have taken
