Rule:
"THE ANGEL THAT YOU THOUGHT I AM, WAS THE ANGEL THAT MADE YOU THE DEVIL. I'VE RUINED YOU."David Vaughan's POV
I continue to smile, forcefully. From the wings of this heavy door, I watch all the board members settle in their comfortable space. Each is trying to find a chair where they can greet one another. There have been small chats from here and there.
Everyone seems to be happy that this day has come.
Mrs. Lourde Maclntosh even feels anxious knowing that once she has Ms. Pound's share, everything that the Maclntosh built may fall into the hands of the enemy.
The attorney, Mr. Snyder didn't show up. He sends another attorney with Mrs. Maclntosh, this newbie looks so nervous surrounded by known and famous tycoons and businessmen.
"Mr. Vaughan, everyone's here."
Pagpapaalam sa akin ni Jasper. Troubled, pasimple kong pinunas ang namamasa kong kamay sa coat ko.
"Pero di pa nangyayari ang meeting with Mr. Arsenios. Mr. Charlton called my secretary this morning, he will send a representative para daw matuloy ang contract with us."
Bulong ko bago sinenyasan si Ms. Alvarez na wag munang isara ang pinto. Some of our secretaries are present here, accommodating with our important guests with some refreshment. Pansin ko ang paglapit nito sa akin.
"Mr. Vaughan, Mr. Maclntosh already gave us a sign that the meeting will soon start in a minute. We need to close the door."
With that, lumingon kami ni Jas kay Boss. He doesn't seem worried at all, he's even chatting with some of them.
"Dude, we're not gonna make it."
Bahid sa boses ko ang pag-aalala. Jas nods, already making his way.
"Boss has another plan once Mrs. Maclntosh signs it."
He lets me know. I sat next to Mr. Maclntosh while Jas sat on my left side.
"Boss, how are you feeling?"
I checked on Mr. Maclntosh. He leans a little closer to me.
"Did Una already call in?? She mentioned may labas kami at 1, lagpas na. I still don't know where she wants to go."
Nabigla ako sa naging reply niya. Angelo said Boss will be changing but is this how wicked love is?? To the point na wala ka ng pake sa trabaho mo???
I just signed and gave him a slight shake of my head, a gesture of a no.
Kung ako sa kanya, iba ang iisipin ko. It should be about our strategy about Mr. Arsenios.
I don't know but it'll be harder if mapunta pa sa pangalan ni Mrs. Maclntosh, when we could have it under kay Mr. Arsenios. It's a good deal for both of our sides, since if we will have him as one of our shareholders, the name REALMS GROUP may also be associated with us since it's always been a signature next to Mr. Arsenios's name.
The board will be much more please with that, they will instantly say yes without batting an eye.
Kaya malaki ang nagawa naming offer kay Mr. Arsenios but I wonder bakit di siya magshow-up??
If he really wants it, he would be here by now.
Sumasakit na ang ulo ko when the meeting started. It starts with a formal greeting, followed by Mrs. Maclntosh's background and company status. Here, they also explain the marketing update of her company in the US. It is really impressive and outstanding.
