When I was checking on my dad's company's analytics on the pc in my cabin, suddenly I turned my head to the sound of the knock at my door. Saw a woman standing out there holding the door's handle as if she was only waiting for my permission to come in.
That was my PA.
I nodded to come in.
Then she walked straight to my table and stood on the other side. She was holding both her hands together and squeezing them, showing her nervousness. Her eyes were scared and afraid to open her mouth and why she was here and what she was supposed to say or convey the message?
I put aside the files that I was holding.
But she seems like she didn't want to say anything.
She looks scared so I waited politely.
She was still busy clenching her palms and wiping her sweats with tissues.
I was being patient and waiting for her to say the reason why she was here?
The sweat drops were dripping from the side of her forehead.
From that second I was sure that she must be having some bad news for me.
"What?" I asked when I understood she wasn't going to say until I ask her to.
She remains silent, still squeezing her fingers together.
She took a deep breath before she speaks.
"Mr. Smith that... the..." her voice braked.
So that must be some of my bad news. Isn't it?
"Just say it already," I yelled, whatever that problem was she was acting like that was hers.
"Sir, the clients who signed our contracts were now cancelling our projects." She said all that in one breath which didn't surprise me.
"What?" I shouted, didn't know what was happening in my life.
First, they told me to take his position as CEO and which I did for my dad's sake second they rumour about me in that newspaper, and then that wasn't enough for them. They still wanted to destroy me, damage my life, everything? I can't believe these types even existed. Now my clients who were already signed our contracts were cancelling. But why? And why now?
Of course, I know that was nothing to do with her but still I couldn't control my anger. Before I try to kill her without my knowledge I told her to leave my office with groaning.
When she left my room the door behind her didn't close instead she held it for someone that I was familiar with. But that gentleman told her that she didn't want to do that. With a nod and blush, she was gone as he walked towards my office with an innocent look on his face. He sat on the leather seated chair across from me, started tapping on the table in front of us. It was his habit whenever he came to my office.
Charles.
"Dude, what happened, and why those people were standing and yelling at me to let them take an interview with you? Did you become an overnight popular or what?" Charles said as he nodded towards the door like he was referring to the media people outside our office.
I didn't answer.
"So what's the matter with those dudes out there?" he asked winking his eyebrows with a grin on his lips.
"Seriously?" I asked annoyed by his bro sense.
He just shrugged as he took the paperweight and started to spin it and that makes the scratching sound which annoyed me.
