Chalkline's POV

As I walked into the conference room  I was immediately introduced to Miss Newell. It was hard to ignore that she was a very beautiful woman.

"Mr. Walker it is my pleasure to finally meet you sir" She said that we shook hands.

"Good to meet you also miss you Miss Newell ,you can have a seat" I assist her with getting seated.

"Well now that we are all here we should start this meeting" Shannon  said and everyone agreed.

"Well I'm not going to take up much of your time Mr Walker because I know that you are a busy man" Miss New said.

I nodded in my head in agreement. I wish she had known that I was a busy man and I didn't have time for such a meeting, an email would have been just as good.

"Okay, So Mr  Walker, my father has been in the real estate business for almost his entire life. Up until his passing he was still working. He knew the ins and out of the industry, he knew all the contacts, he knew where to build and mostly he knew how to build" She said.

I was listening keenly for her point.

"Your father was indeed an impressive man, I must add" Shannon said.

She smiled at Shannon as she addresses her. "He was indeed, the most humble soul but his presence  was  felt, he was powerful" Sitra replied.

I could easily tell that she admired her father, just as how I admired my father. Her entire being lits up with she spoke about him.

"It's great to always have some we can speak so highly of" I said.

"It is Mr Walker but he is no longer with us. I said before Mr. Walker, I've never been impressed by anyone but my father, until I found out about you" she said.

I exchanged glances with Elliot, Shannon and Nita.

"And why is that so, if you don't mind me asking Miss Newell?" I asked.

She got up from her chair and walked towards the monitor then switch it on. Images of Walker Towers, all four of them came flashing across the screen.

She points to the monitor to the monitor while looking at me.

"These are  what it impresses me the most about you Mr Walker. How you executed these buildings effortlessly. It's the same drive and eye my father had for architectural design" She said.

Elliott slightly cleared his throat and Shannon adjusted in her seat.

I've seen the reviews, I've heard the noise but I'm not one to brag.

"Well thank you Miss Newell. However I would be really ungrateful if I should sit here and take all the credit for these wonderful Towers. As you can see, I am surrounded by best team there is"

She's slowly walks towards my chair the stopped right before me.

"I can see that Mr Walker, you are indeed surrounded by the best"

Once again I nodded in agreement.

"That is why I want your team along with my team to come together so that we can raise more Towers like these and like the ones that my father had help created. I want us together to work together Mr. Walker"  She said.

"To be honest with still these  Towers were like a project to me, a little experiment  because I have the resources. It's not something that I want to bury myself into" I replied.
