TRUST

Chapter thirty five

Deren, Metin and Emre sat in the reception area of Compass Sports, she had done all she could to get everything in order so that the contracts were signed today, if there were any doubts in her mind as to how Ceyda would respond she would walk away. She had already talked to Metin and Emre about this on the drive over. 

"Remember if any one of us doubts that Ceyda will honor the contracts or that she will try some way to interfere in Can and Sanem's life just say the word we agreed on. I am ready to walk away from this no matter how much it would benefit us." she said.

Both men nodded, Emre had a deep scrowl on his face, he had doubts already, Ceyda had always been rude to their employees but the thing she had said and done to Sanem were worse and he wasn't so ready to forget.

Gamze walked into the room, shaking her head. She smiled at the three people sitting there.

"I am sorry to be so long, our attorney was in another meeting, come on back and we will get started. Ceyda is on her way." she said as she lead the three of them back to a conference room.

"On her way back?" said Emre.

"Evet, she already had a meeting scheduled that she could not cancel. She called and said she was fifteen minutes out. We can go ahead and get started. Our attorney read over the documents you emailed me today. He has a couple of questions and once those are answered then when Ceyda arrives she will just need to sign the contracts."

Emre looked over at Metin, both men had looks of concern on their faces. Even though this meeting has been impromptu both knew Ceyda was not one for meetings outside of her office unless she wanted something, like Can.

Ferit Bey arrived and spoke with Metin about the wording of one of the clauses in the contract. Once his questions were satisfied, he nodded to Gamze. They just had to wait for Ceyda to arrive. Metin's phone pinged with a message and just as Ceyda walked through the door.

She had a chessire cat type smile on her face. She was up to something and Emre knew it, he wasn't sure what to do but Metin took the decision out of his hands.

"Deren, Emre, I need a moment, please, something has come up with the Venice account." he said and Deren's shoulders dropped, Metin had said Venice, the word they had agreed on if any of them felt something was off. "I am sorry Ceyda, can we have a moment." He nodded to the door and the three of them walked out. 

Deren spoke first " What happened?" 

"I have had someone keeping track of Huma's visitors at Can's request. He knows your anne well and thought she might try to get to him through someone he knew."

"Ok, what does have to do with this meeting?" Deren questioned.

Emre just shook his head, he knew, he had felt something was off the way Ceyda came into the office. "Ceyda" he said "Ceyda's meeting was with Huma."

Deren gasped as Metin just shook his head in confirmation. Deren turned and walked back into the conference room.

"I am sorry we have an emergency at the agency. Gamze I will call you later." she walked out before anyone could ask any questions. Metin was dialing his phone as the elevator arrived.

"Hello, abi" answered Can.

"You were right. Ceyda visited Huma today. We are on our way back." he said and then hung up, nothing else needed to be said.
