FALLING FOR MR CEO

CHAPTER Eleven :_I Accept_(UNEDITED)

Harrison's POV

"Don't forget your lunch pack"..Max hurriedly jumped out of the car immediately we parked in front of Crane music academy..the kid was so excited to be in school..I dont remember been this excited when i had to go to school,well except for the time's i made out with some of the hottest girls in school..hmmm..Good times,good times.

"Why are you smiling?" Max asked as he looked at me like i was crazy

"What,nothing..hurry up so that your not late and..be good ok" He nodded energetically before going into the building.I started the engine and drove to my company..

Monday's were usually hetic for me..Everyone was running around trying to get things done,the phone's kept on buzzing,the smell of coffee in the air..overall,the place was filled with alot of busy people doing their very best to avoid been fired...The morning was just starting off but i felt like i'd already been here all day..Yes,this business had its pro's and con's,mostly con's,but it was a family business and as such,it couldn't be given away to just anybody..Moment's like this made me appreciate my brother and the all work he had put into this company to make it what it was today and on that note,i headed to my office,made my myself comfortable on my chair and went straight to work.

"Before we begin the class,i want someone to tell me what he or she benefited from the trip...anyone?" Alot of hands were up so i picked a cute boy in the front row.He stood up and told the class what he learnt from the trip.

"That's very good Tyler..I believe we..." A knock came from the door and we all turned around to see who it was..

"I'm sorry to interrupt your claas Bridget but you have a visitor waiting for you in the cafeteria". Melissa was one of the teachers here and a very good vocal coach too..she was also very nice and polite.

"That's ok..I'll be with you in a minute..Ok class i'll be back soon.Max your in charge while i'm gone".

Melissa and I left together making small talk on our way to the cafeteria..Once i saw the suit,i immediately knew who it was..

"Excuse me"..melissa said as she returned to her class..I only nodded.

"Mrs Smith,what a surprise..i wasn't expecting to see you here"
I took a seat opposite her and discreetly scruntinzed the woman in front of me..She was in her late 40's but still very beautiful,sophisticated,elegant and undoubtedly wealthy which begged the question.. Why Me? ..

"Would you like something to drink?,perhaps coffee?.."she asked with an accent i'ld kill to have.

"No thank's,i'm fine..So what bring's you here..I'm sure you have more important thing's to do

"I'm quite certain you already know the reason for my visit..i haven't heard from you since my last visit,so i decided to come and find out what you've decided".

"I honestly don't know why you insist i train your daughter..I mean,there are so many good and more qualified voice coach's out there..You are obviously wealthy so i know money is not the problem".

She smiled as she sipped her tea.
"Never underrate yourself my dear,I know you can do this and besides,i have seen your resume.You play almost all kinds of instruments and you are very good at what you do..You also seem like a nice person.So the real question should be why not you?"

"How did you get to see my resume?"I asked quite astonished with this piece of information.

She gave me a smile that spoke volume's. "I have my ways..incase you haven't noticed,i don't give up easily..so tell me,do we have a deal?"

"But i'm not a professional voice coach,the only reason you found out about me was because of Linda and i know that this talent show is very important to your daughter,i dont want to screw this up".I wanted to be sure of her decision before i gave her my answer.

"I know all that..i wouldn't approach you if i wasn't sure of your capability to offer..so Bridget Summers,do we have a deal?." She said with strong conviction in her..You can't possibly argue with that..

I had already accepted to train her daughter but i just wanted to be sure i wasn't rushing into anything i would regret later and besides i'm sure she wasn't the kind of woman to take no for an answer.

"Ok..We have a deal Mrs Smith but i'm only free during weekends"

"That is just fine by me..My daughter would be ecstatic..this is my home address,i'll send my driver to pick you up so that you dont have any trouble locating the place"..She said as she gave me the card.I could tell she really loved her daughter by the way her eye's would shine whenever she talk's about her.

"Alright thank you.."I said not knowing what else to say.

"And dont worry about your fees..you'll be paid handsomely"

"I dont doubt it"..She starting standing up and i joined her.

"I must be on my way now..i wouldn't want to take anymore of your time..Thank's for meeting with me and i'll see you soon" We said our goodbye's and i carried on with my class all the while hoping i didnt make a mistake taking up the job.

Soon after i was on my way home but not before 30 minutes of pestering my best friend to fess up,but all to no avail..I even had to ask Tom if he knew anything but unfortunately,he was as lost as i was..Immediately i got home,i called harrison's line but still nothing..It went to voicemail and i was getting really pissed..I know he wasn't dead because that would have been all over the news,which only left me with one other option,he was deliberating avoiding my calls..

There was only one thing left to do..Tomorrow,i was going to march straight to his penthouse,knock on his door and demand for an explanation and he better have a good one..

"No one messes with bridget".
