She hanged up this is how we all siblings are we love and care about each other but don't express it openly

I dropped both boys and went to MY
Office well to be office,dad was waiting for me in his cabin,his secretary guiding me towards it,with everyone greeting me with a smile cause who doesn't know THE DAKSH OBEROI'S children also Oberoi's being the most talked hot topic between people and headlines for newspapers

Dad: Welcome princess
"Thanks dad"

I gave him a big smile with a hug

Dad: so..how does it feel?
"Idk I haven't started the duty yet,so no strings attached"

I shrugged
He laughed

Dad: is this a friends with benefits relationship

He laughed heartily

"Daddd"
Dad: ok ok,so I asked you to come here as today we have a board meeting and I want to introduce you to all of them as a CEO cause we have to do it two months prior to get you ready I want you to take over the company before you fly off
"Dad isn't it too early"

getting nervous

Dad: wow am I seeing Ms Divya Oberoi who never gets nervous even when she decided to live on her own that too in a completely different country not even a city,getting nervous?

"Ms Oberoi never gets nervous,it's just Dad you're still healthy and good thanks to god so why not continuing for a few more years you'll get bored father the best"
Dad: that's my daughter and about that I want to have fun the rest of my life I want to live up to my hobby till now I was living up to my dreams

I gave him a overwhelming smile

"If that's what you want Dad ask even my life I'll give you happily"
Dad: shut up princess,I want you happy that's it don't think about me now and get ready future CEO

We heard a knock

Dad's secretary: meeting in 5 Sir
Dad: be there.

Let's go?he asked forwarding his hands to me which I gladly took and went with him

Dad: here goes your dream princess

He said as we entered the meeting room having to come in the light I saw respect in everyone's eyes for Dad and sincere smiles for me as for me I went for my straight poker face, I saw even Advay sitting giving me a bright smile which I returned with the same energy for sure he knew about dad's decision
Dad: good morning,Ladies and gentleman

Every one greeted back
Someone knocked and came inside

Mr Rathore: sorry for being late i had some issue in the company to handle
Dad: you don't need to justify Mr Rathore
LOOK WHO MADE AN ENTRY WITH MR RATHORE HIS GREEK GOD SON ADITYA RATHORE,uncle gave me a smile and Aditya and me had a eye contact which i broke

Dad: so i called in for this meeting today y'all would have guessed already what it's for

They all nodded

Dad: this is my daughter Ms Divya Oberoi(he said with determination and pride I was overwhelmed as he never showed how proud he was Till now but deep down I myself knew about it)as you all may already know she have done her international business degree from New York and is going to graduate soon in her masters

He bluffed

Dad: coming to the point I want my second daughter to take over this company as I completely trust her with it and announcing her as the CEO two months prior the official announcement Of course not until y'all agree
Mr Verma: I find it more of a order sir then your last sentence confused me why are you asking our opinion when you're the CEO and can make the final decision
Dad: you're right Mr Verma but I want y'all to judge my daughter I don't want everyone to feel that I'm spoon feeding her,test her.

He said with a smile shocking everyone
I knew my dad can't be this easy

Mr shaan: what if we test her and she's lacking some point and we're against her being the CEO what would you do then sir
Dad: as I said the judgement is all yours,you all also have right over this company and Mr shaan you don't know my daughter she's an Oberoi blood do you think she can lack?

I smirked
Mr shaan shut his mouth instantly I guess he'll be an obstacle for Me

Dad: Ms Oberoi come forward

OK I wasn't ready for this I have to speak in front of maximum 10 people that too when i wasn't ready my social anxiety kicking in then I looked into Advay's eyes he gave me an assuring smile to which I relaxed but my eyes involuntarily moved to Aditya's HE GAVE ME A SMILE WITH A NOD i nodded back,I finally spoke up yes,I am Divya Oberoi I can never get nervous

"Thank you everyone for the warm welcome,'actions speak louder then words' that's what i believe,please don't go easy on me because of my dad,test me I have confidence over my hard work."

Everyone clapped and dad gave me a proud smile

Dad: meeting dismissed.
