Not Your Ordinary Love Story

Chapter 6

Alexandrew's POV

I am still having a jet lag since the time I arrived here. My room still looks the same, my mom did not rearranged nor touch my belongings and how I kept it the last time I slept here. I'm in my parent's house right now since I really missed my family but I'll be going back to my pent house after a week or so.

"No. No. No. Put it there. Yes. Yes. Oh no. Not there. To the left. . "

Well well, it looks like my mom bought another furniture for the house. She has this kind of collection. I decided to take a shower and get changed.

"Mom?" I called for her and she looked at me. Clear in her eyes how much she missed me even though we have been seeing each other for a week now.

"Oh honey, I prepared breakfast for you. By the way, your father told me that he wants you in his office by 10am. Some important matters need to be discussed, I guess." I shrugged it off. It is probably about taking over the company since I am back for good.

I stayed in the Philippines for quite a long time. It is just the best place for me to maybe start something new and releases something from my past.
But London is my hometown, it just struck me how I really missed my home and family.

I knocked to my father's office. He's in his office attire and has the looks of a person in authority. You wouldn't miss to see the strictness in himself.

"Son, come. Take a seat. I have something very important to tell you"

It is quite weird for me to see him smiling when there is something serious we're going to talk about. Well, nevermind that. I don't think I will get scolded hahaha

"What is it dad? It seems like it can't wait."

"Well, I am pretty old as you can see. I have been handling our businesses all throughout the time you were gone. ."

I cut him off. I was doing something while I was gone. I started a business in the Philippines. "Dad, you know what I did in the Philippines, right? I wasn't sitting around and enjoying my life as a millionaire." Yes, I'm a millionaire. My family pretty much owns bussinesses and our company is bigger that what you think.

"Yes, I know. That's why I am assured that you'll handle our businesses properly. With that, I mean, ALL our businesses. From the little ones which we are slowly developing and to the big ones which needs to be stabilized and kept on track."

WHAT?! I was expecting that I am going to handle things slowly but it doesn't seem like it.

I am still shocked that I didn't hear him calling my name. What am I going to do? I'm not that ready. I still have many things to fix.

"Earth to my son! So? What is your decision?" My father asked me but with a tone of "I don't take no for an answer"

"Uh. . Yes? Okay. Yes, I accept it dad. Thank you." Do I have a choice but to accept?

"Good. We'll talk about how the business goes and everything later at home. Enjoy this day first."

I left his office or let me say my soon-to-be office. Actually, I don't think I'll have a hard time running our businesses. I finished with a bachelor's degree in Business Management and with a Master's degree on Financial Analysis. I could truly say I am qualified to be the next CEO.
