Remember the Rules

Chapter 32

Willow's POV

I was sitting in the office attending a meeting I didn't want to. Stupid Nia and Zale messed it up and now I don't have the most important part if the foundation. I was out of it spinning the pen looking at numbers which to be honest i have no clue what they mean. I should have learnt a little about the account side when Abby was here.

The dude was done talking and i just nodded "i will get back to you in a week." I shook his hand and left. When i left the room Ethan followed me "your 4'o clock is waiting for you." He said and I looked at him confused.

"4? I didn't have any meetings today."

"It's Miss. Newman's meetings." He said and I sighed. "gosh how long is she going to not come to work?" I mumbled to myself and sighed "Ok can you get me a strawberry banana oat smoothie?" I asked as we went to my floor.

"Yes ma'am" he started punching something in his iPad. "What is this meeting about?" I asked him confused as I checked my watch.

"Budgeting for next year." Fuck numbers again. I shook my head.

I sat in my chair as the woman explained to me this year's achievements and what we did with the money. Ethan walked in with my Smoothie. I took a sip of it and it just didn't taste right.

I set it aside as I started taking notes about things she was talking about. I need to do more research about this later.

Once the meeting ended I smiled and shook her hand "sorry and thank you for bearing with me." I said as I had asked her a lot of questions which if I had handled budgeting i would have already known about. The lady left and I sat back down sighing "we done for the day? Right?" I threw away the smoothie. "Yes. You didn't like it?" He asked, looking at the smoothie.

"Didn't taste like the one i drink." I shrugged.

"Hmm, I will order from a different place next time. These are all the files related to today's meeting." He said and put a pile of files on my table. "I'm going home so put these in my car."

He nodded, picking up the files and following me as I went down to the parking lot. As soon as I stepped out of the elevator Caleb had opened the car door for me. I got in as Ethan put the files on the front seat.

"Let's go to a lounge. I need a drink." I said as Caleb got in the car. "Yes, Your Highness."

"The Mercedes?" I asked him as Abby had thrashed that car badly. This was all Nia and Zales fault. I would have let her down easily. They got my perfectly good car ruined.

I checked my phone and saw the read sign next to my message. Well I apologised. It's up to her if she wants to accept it or not. We stopped at a lounge I frequented. I took off my tie and unbuttoned the top buttons.

I looked at the corner of the bar. The place I always sat at. "Tequila double on the rocks." I said with a smile to the bartender and he nodded.

I called up Danny as I needed some company "hey where are you?"

"I'm trying to figure out what my parents are planning." She said as I heard some ruffling in the background.

"What do you mean what your parents are planning?" I asked her amused.

"I don't know I have a feeling they are up to something. Chuck that I heard Ms. Abigail did quite a number on your car." She chuckled.

"Yeah that bitch. It's all Nia and Zales fault." I sighed as I took a sip of my drink. "Asshole, don't call her a bitch. You know you deserved it." She said scoffing. "What you did was not right."
