He had retired, my father i mean. Allowing me become CEO of the Milliards corporation, well along with my mother who was still somewhat in charge put a different part.

I had a meeting with her today about this exactly, she wants to expand the business. Build more buildings, hire more people, own more land. But we had to come across an agreement of who would own which buildings, what land and what people. I personally didn't mind as long as i got to keep this building and had access to any of the other building.

They both had wanted me to have an assistant so it would make it easier on me, but i was doing just fine on my own. Plus Most women just want sex, money and power and why would i be the one to give them that. With just a snap of their fingers they could take down the whole business with an unreasonable lie.

I hadn't trust a single women. beside my mother, since my brothers divorce. Just when he was going to get married to the girl of his dreams, she ruined him and made him look like a fool then married his best friend.

Right after my brother, Nicolas, went down that hill he hid himself from the rest of the world and now lives in an cabin in the woods somewhere in main.

It was not 12:00 p.m and my mother had just arrived, the meeting between the two of us didn't start till 1 but i guess as usual she had other plans.

"Sir, your mother is waiting for you in room B2."

Just as i walked down i grabbed a cup of coffee and walked in to the room. To see a girl drop her papers on the floor and quickly apologize before looking up.

She looked so innocent, so pure. Like she hasn't seen a single rotten soul with her small brown eyes. I had a small urge to go and help her but I decided to push it away and sit down in front of the oval shaped table, waiting for mother who knows where she had gone. Probably to help her self to a cup of coffee as well.

Just as the klutz got her self up mother had walked in and bent down to give me a kiss on the cheek before walking over and sitting with her. Right when the girl looked up again i looked her in the eye, then mother and spoke.

"So where would you like to start."

Harpers  P.O.V

Mrs. Milliard wanted a early head start to day, she had said there was an important business meeting we must attend and we cannot be late.

So at the moment we are on our way out the hotel, i was more nervous of meeting her family afterwards than this meeting. maybe i could just hide in my hotel room an tell her I'm sick....but of course knowing her she would probably have me at the doctors office before i can even think about telling her I'm really not sick.

She had met me down stairs in the lobby so we could grab a bite and go, the building was only a few blocks away so we had some time.

Mrs. Millard had said this business meeting wasn't the final one, it was just a pre-deal before everyone made their final decision. 'Milliards'
the company name was Milliards? Her family must run the business or it was just a coincidence. But I had a feeling I would be meeting Mrs. Milliards family sooner that I thought.

Rising up in the elevator I felt more worried then ever, my palms had gotten sweaty and they had begun to shake. 'Now is not the time to be nervous toughen up' I thought.

Ding. The elevator door opened an I followed Mrs. Milliard out into the hall, carrying my messengers bag which held my laptop and files.  

We both entered an inclosed room with a giant oval shaped table with spinning chairs all around. 

"Take a seat at the far end over there and pull out the files ill be right back" Mrs. Milliard spoke, pointing for me to sit where she told. Just as my boss left the room I got to work, laying out the files and pulling my laptop out too so I could easily get distracted if they needed a private talk.

Just when I pulled the last file out, the door opened and it had startled me making me drop all of the papers.

"I am so sorry Mrs. Milli-"
when I looked up it was definitely not my boss, but more of a greek god like those ones you see in movies that have the girls swooning over their feet.

I couldn't help but blush and look down ashamed for staring too long, once I finished picking up the papers I looked up again and realized the god had been seated and my boss was looking at me with a smirk.

"Well lets get started. I see you have met my assistant, Harper . She will be joining us for this meeting and the rest further on."

I hope you like the changes, its 12a.m right now and i just wanted to right something so it would keep you guys interested.

With the old characters i didn't feel like they had a story to go off of so I switched it up a bit.

Vote and share please, thank you
