Mummy I got you a new husband

KARL’S POV

“We got the deal Sir, headed back to you soon.” I read the message outloud. It was Ryan messaging. I could hardly contain my excitement. I dropped my phone and stared out the window, reflecting on how far the company had come. After the drama of the night before, this was just the moment for some good news and Ryan message was just that.

I grinned as we drove to my office, reflecting on how far the company had come in such a short amount of time. My company which was one of the fastest growing in town, had just hit another jackpot with the Sonnic enterprises in the Unites States. This was a significant accomplishment for my business, and I was thrilled about it.

Being a CEO came with a lot of hurdles, but I have always been able to overcome them and perform better.

I was thrilled that we had signed the deal with one of the biggest Companies in this United States that I have been wanting to do business with for the longest time.

After sending Ryan a few weeks before now I couldn’t but hope for the best. I could not travel since my kid and other initiatives at the workplace required my attention, so I sent Ryan, my most trusted employee; he was my personal assistant and had helped my firm develop since his arrival. I hoped Ryan represented the company in a good light and bagged the deal and he did just that.

Now with this news, I could not be more happier. I was definitely going to give Ryan a bonus for getting this deal. This was amazing and just the right news I need to hear to make my day and get my mind off yesterday’s drama.

This alliance was sure going to bring my company more money and affluence both locally and internationally.

The car came to a halt in the parking lot and as I stepped out of my car, I made my way into the bustling office building. The sound of ringing phones and clicking keyboards filled the air, creating a symphony of productivity as I walked in.

As I walked towards my office I couldn’t help but feel a renewed sense of excitement and with determination in my eyes, I walked into the office building.

Greeted by my colleagues, I responded with a radiate smile which seemed unsual. After Claire left, I never smile when I came in the office. Everyone looked at me wondering what had happened to me.

“I am sure they are wondering what happened to me.” I muttered as I walked along smiling.” They would know soon enough.” I said, making my way to my office.

When I arrived, my secretary was busy on her computer. She did not notice I was there.

“Hi,” I said as I stepped in, and she turned to see who I was. She appeared taken aback and did not answer for quite some time. I had never greeted her before, so I suppose she was astonished when I said hello, and I could see how perplexed she was by my behaviour that morning.

” Morn…. ing sir, sorry I didn’t no you have arrived.” She answered standing up, and I signalled for her to take a seat. I was in such a good mood and headed on with my tasks for the day.

As the day went on, I tackled every task with precision and efficiency. The troubles from last night slowly faded away as success after success piled up. When I was done, I closed my laptop with a triumphant smile, proud of the progress I had made for the day.

I leaned back in my chair, feeling a sense of accomplishment wash over me. The deal with Sonnic Enterprises was a game-changer for my business, and I couldn’t wait to see the impact it would have on our growth.

As I looked out of the window at the city skyline, a wave of gratitude swept through me. Ryan had truly come through for me, exceeding all expectations. It was time to show him how much his hard work meant to me. I was definitely going to reward him handsomely for a job well done when he arrived.

Max soon came into my office, thrilled to show me something; it was the news of our accomplishment, which had been all over the press.

“We are all over the news, sir,” he said as he entered my office, smiling with delight.

“What do you mean?” I inquired, curious as to what why we were all over the news. The last time Max came to my office, it was all awful news, and I hope it is not the same today.

As I asked him what it was about, he did not respond instead he picked up the remote to the TV to turned it on for me to see things for myself. I turned to face the TV growing rather impatient and saw what he was talking about.

” The fastest growing company founded by Karl Rutherford just signed a contract with the Sonnic Enterprises.” I read the headlines as the reporter spoke about the alliance between the two companies.

It was the news about the contract that Ryan had just signed. The news of our successful deal spread like wildfire throughout the city and promoted the company. Our shares went up rapidly and we made so much sales that we had made before.

” I guess Ryan had made us all proud.” I said to Max and he couldn’t agree any less. Ryan had spoken about me giving all the credit to me in his speech. Soon my phone started buzzing with messages congratulating me on such an incredible feat.

” The late hours and tireless effort had paid off afterall.” I said to Max and got up walking towards where the drinks were to have a drink. I poured two glasses and handed a glass to Max and we toasted to our success and sipped our drinks as we talked about the contract.

The telecom rang and I picked it. ” Sir someone is here to see you and it is very important sir.” My secretary said seemingly agitated.

” Who is it?” I asked I asked and her response made all my excitement go away.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
