Business Affair

//Grant Meeting//

Is kissing a guy considered as cheating after you're married? Yes, and you have to talk with Ethan and solve every bullshit you created Madelyn. Not now because I am drafting a excel sheet for the upcoming meeting and my company is leaned on me for great success rate this year. The day my grandpa died, this company and fashion industry was kept on my shoulders, and I would never let him down unless he wanted me to.

 Eros Publications has helped many authors to fulfill their dreams and Fashion side bringing up young minds into mind blowing ideas. Fashion side is mostly handled by my co-workers and main guy is Daxton Nelson, the youngest Nelson. I wonder why the whole family is working-class till I met the eldest Nelson living now, that Daniel Nelson and he is one strong man to consider weak but don't mention about the middle one who is Damon Nelson I guess because I have never seen him face to face and he is living at New York away from his family and business.

"Ma'am, Daxton Nelson wants an urgent meeting about-" 

Even before he finished the sentence, I picked my bag and phone and got out of the cabin to reach Fashion Industry within minutes and my driver waiting down for me. Ben mailed me the reason of the meeting and I almost laughed seeing how perfect Daxton wrote the reason and even made nearby company join us. Ben joined me just in case because I have another meeting with Daxton's brother Daniel about funding in our company. Honest me, Nelson family have helped us a lot and so did we so consider us family friends than enemies.

"Mr. Daxton called and explained that Mr. Soyer is there right now and ma'am I guess he is planning to move on to next step about the fabrics we showed him few months ago."

I hummed and busy typing an email to Daniel saying I would be late and excuse me till I have put full stop with Daxton here. Hard working brothers expect Damon is all I can say and in between my phone rang and it was Ethan. I have explained million times not to ring me during working hours which is morning 8 to night 10 or more. I picked the call up and asked to Ben to answer any other ones in case someone rang while this call.

"Ethan, stop ringing me when I am working and-"
"Madelyn I am your fucking husband."
"So?"

The line went beep and I blocked his number and went on with my mails and texting co-workers to update me about latest author reaching us out. The car suddenly stopped making me lean forward and hit my head on the driver's seat head rest and dropping my phone to. I pushed myself back and about to yell at my driver before I saw the car cross parked in front of us. A Porsche and the driver inside isn't moving one inch and I gave up and opened the door. I knocked the window, and he opened the door and stepped out. Good looking young man.

"Sir, those sunglasses make you blind, do they?"
"Last time I checked they did Miss."
"Move your damn car aside mister, there are people in rush."
"Geez, got a temper for a beauty like you."

Hitting on while arguing. I sighed and he wore his Ray-Ban glasses back and drove the car away. Ben started talking about the meeting and I plugged my ear pods in and listened to a random podcast to ease my mind or else I am messing the entire meeting. We reached there on time and Daxton waiting for us outside and he welcomed us in, and I saw a Daniel sitting inside the board room. Ben waited outside and it's just three of us in here and why is my heart beat the loudest because two damn business gods sitting in front me?

"Madelyn, impressed me with last works."
"Thanking you for that Daniel and I heard about fund raising."

He laughed it off and Daxton can hand in, but he won't because he too knew how hard it's to make Daniel listen to a fucking offer. I pushed him my reports and he smiled reading those and looked at Daxton. What are these brothers planning and another thing guys, Daxton is much higher position than me here but still I boss him around.

"Marry me, Madelyn."

Daxton joked seeing the reports and Daniel isn't happy that because all knew I am married to Ethan, I don't even know his last name and why am I married? Money and business flow increased the day I married him and even though we have no love thing between us for the past eight months.

"We have agreed to let a new member help us."
"New? As if?"

The door opened and a guy wearing glasses came in. Those Ran-Ban ones which I saw an hour ago at traffic and he is the owner of that Porsche? Wait, don't tell he is a Nelson and I have fucked up the first meet already and Daxton pulled him between them, and he shot a smile at me. I shook hands with him, and Daniel signed the papers for new project, and he is our project supporter.

"Damon Nelson."
"Madelyn Eros, and happy meeting you."

Pure lie it was and he knew from seeing my face and the handshake got tighter and Daxton clapped his hands for his brother working with us. I am working with three Nelson brothers and one of them having the worst space in my head. Can I erase the meeting with him. This year is going to double the fun and double the headache from what I have known from Damon Nelson.

"Never knew temper beauty worked under my brothers."
"Is that so? How about have some Q/A's with them to know me."
"I rather have your body map."

Lord, he is hitting on too much and laughing at his own pickup lines. Ethan is better because he doesn't talk to me and when was the last time, I spoke to him? Few months ago, for signing a paperwork. Daniel left soon because he has a meeting with Mr. Soyer who canceled on us and wanted to meet him. Daxton was called on to an interview and which left us alone here at the board room.

"Madelyn, right?"
"Wrong Damon Nelson."

Where the fuck are you, Ben? I can't spend another second with this asshole/ project supporter. The door flew open, and Ben walked in holding a deck of papers and putting them on the desk and sitting there with his phone on one hand.

"Ma'am excuse me, you many return back."
"Sure, call me after the meeting with Mr. Soyer and ask Daniel to send the mails soon."

He nodded and I left the room to smoke area because I wanted one since the car ride and Damon behind just made it worse. I lighted the tip and inhaled the smoke in and puffed it out to see Damon standing right in front of me with a grin on his face. I handed him the cigar and he denied, and I am in shock seeing the party animal not smoking. Rumors and flash news found on sites explain his lifestyle like this and mainly partying and hooking up random girls.

"You seem close to Daxton and Daniel."
"Of course...they are my co-workers and I guess you're not."

He nodded and after all who loves a total bunker and running around with their money rather than helping them out. Daniel played his role well and so did Daxton leaving Damon to corner. I feel bad rarely and what can I say I am single angel to family. Truth, I support those two than him. My phone beeped and it was mail from Ethan, he fucking mailed me?

"The one and only who married you huh?"

His tone changed and he sounded angrier towards me or Ethan or maybe to his brothers, but I don't know. Whole world knew about me getting married to Ethan on May 27th and I hate it been eight months since we are married.

"He is famous."
"Only because of you Bela."

Bela? Now what fucking word is that? One he meant is 100% true that Ethan became known to the world by marrying me and so his family became famous. I ignored his mail and crushed the cigar on the ash tray and turned to leave for my upcoming myself meeting...my break time for 30 minutes and I wanted every pain away which added humans to.

"Lunch on my Bela so come on me."
"No thank you...already ate."
"You asking me to believe that?" 

Damn it. I swore under my breath, and he must have heard and kept smiling till we reached the main door and our cars waiting for us there and I asked my driver to leave and followed him to his car. The same I saw while fighting for space and I must say this a good car. I wore my seat belt, and he was looking at the whole time.

"Quit staring Damon, see this ring."
"I see none Bela...how about you take mine?"
