Kanishk's Pov
"Good Morning Mr. Kapoor, I'm Raj, your new assistant, I'll be replacing Devika," a young boy followed me as soon as I exited the elevator.
"What is my today's schedule?" I ask, ignoring the pleasantries and going straight for the work. I was irritated and angry at Siya, I've no idea why she yelled at me and just left.
"Uh yes sir, you had a meeting at ten, but I had it rescheduled because sir you..." I knew what he was gonna say because I was late, all because I wanted to make breakfast for my wife for fighting with her last night, but it looked like she was still very pissed at me and I have no idea why!
"Good, tell me what's next," I say and opened the file in front of me as I heard Raj going on and on about all the activities of my day.
"Also sir, Miss Aisha called from the PR department, she wanted to have a meeting with you," he says and I nod my head.
"Schedule it after lunch hour," I say and he leaves and I sigh.
Aisha, she joined the company as a PR Manager four months ago and she was a pain in the ass, if it wasn't for her good work and dedication, I would've thrown her out of the company the moment she started throwing tantrums.
Just a week after she joined I started receiving complaints from her coworkers and I knew then and there how much trouble she will be in the future. If it had not been for the board members of our company voting for her to remain in the company, I had no problem firing her.
My thoughts went back to this morning and remember Siya asking about her and I was confused as hell as to why she wanted to know about Aisha, and when I asked she didn't even say anything.
I was about to start with my work when my office door barged open and Aisha came in with an annoyed face with Raj trailing behind her.
"Sir I tried to stop her, but she just didn't listen," Raj says and I gave an irritated look at Aisha.
"What is this behavior, Aisha? Don't you have basic manners to come knocking in before you enter any room?" I say annoyed and nod at Raj to leave us alone and he left, not before giving a glare at Aisha.
"When did you get a new assistant? Why didn't I know about it?" she asks accusingly and I gave her a scoff.
"Excuse me? Since when do I need to inform you about anything in my life?" I ask and stand up and see her grit her teeth angrily.
"Kanishk listen-"
"Sir," I say correcting her and glaring at her, "I'm not your friend, I told you to never call me by my name," I say and see her roll her eyes.
"Sorry sir," she says and walks towards my desk, "I have a surprise for you, and you're going to be so happy about it that you'll give me a permanent position in your company," she says and I look up from my laptop towards her.
Never.
"As I said last time when you brought us tickets for a movie Miss. Aisha, I hate surprises so if it's anything like that, get out. Now." I say angry just remembering the last time when she brought some movie tickets saying it was her surprise for me for being the best boss.
"No, it's nothing like that, you'll love it, just have a look," she says and forwards a file towards me which I take immediately, wanting to finish this conversation as soon as possible.
"The Huyu Project, it's one of the biggest projects led by Mr. Juan, his motive is to open an amusement park in India and expand his business here, and when I heard about it I knew you would want it, so I asked your team to prepare a synopsis and submitted it to Mr. Juan this morning and he loved it, and he is thinking of giving us this project," she says as I read the file and I look at her shocked.
The nerve of this girl, how dare she make decisions about anything here and- wait a minute!
Just then I recalled something similar, Siya was talking about this project with her assistant two days ago, and now-
I looked up at her furious, she was standing there smirking, twirling her hair in her finger, waiting for me to compliment her. Not in this bloody lifetime!
"Who told you that you could make any decisions for this company without consulting me? Who do you think you are?" I ask, blood boiling in my veins, the nerve of this girl.
"Kanishk I was-"
"Don't bloody call me by my name, how many times need I tell you that for you to understand?" I ask throwing away the file which could bring me crores worth of profit, and first time in y life, I was not interested.
"I'm sorry sir, but listen this could-"
"I don't want to bloody listen to you, and I very well don't need you to grab me any projects and take any decisions on my behalf," I say with so much anger burning beneath my skin, I was afraid I would burst out any minute.
The longer I look at Aisha, the longer I wanted to strangle her right there, "Call Mr. Juan, Now." I say and she looked at me angrily.
"Now, Aisha, don't make me bloody repeat myself," I say and see her picking up her phone and dialing.
"Put it on the speaker, and cancel our contract right now," I tell her and she looked at me shocked.
"But sir, this project is so profitable and we-"
"Last chance Aisha, do as you're told or I'm straight calling the security," I say and see her look at me hurt, well bad luck for her, I don't give a fuck that she's hurt.
Some seconds went by and Mr. Juan picked up the call, "Miss Aisha, I was about to call you, I just spoke with Mrs. Siya, I told her about your proposal," I became alert at the mention of my wife, and glared at Aisha and pointed at the phone to continue speaking.
"About that Mr. Juan, we no more want to continue with our proposal and we would like to cancel our deal," she says and hears Mr. Juan surprised.
"But Miss Aisha, I loved your proposal, it's really good," Mr. Juan says, completely confused at the sudden cancellation of the project.
Aisha looks at me, wanting to know if I heard Mr. Juan. I roll my eyes and took the phone from her hand.
"Hello, Mr. Juan, Kanishk Kapoor speaking, I want to cancel the deal you made with our company's PR, she did it anonymously, without consulting the board members and we do not want to continue with the project, I appreciate your thought about this proposal, but we're really not up for this project, I hope you understand," I say and hear him sigh.
"Of course Mr. Kapoor, I understand," he replies.
"I do hope we can collaborate with some other project soon," I say.
"Sure, sure, I would love to hear again from you, looks like I have to give Mrs. Siya a call again," he says with a chuckle. "I tell you your wife is definitely not a quitter when she heard about the competition, she didn't give up but instead told me she would deliver an even better project idea than yours," he tells and involuntarily a smile came on my lips and I look up to see Aisha glaring at me.
I gave a sweet smile to Aisha, "My wife is an exceptionally talented person," I say to Mr. Juan looking at Aisha, and she glared at me and I look away, already irritated with her face. "I will guarantee you, you won't regret partnering with her," I say knowing how much work and effort Siya had put in for this project.
"If you say so Mr. Kapoor, I'm sure we will be meeting soon, and then we can have a talk," he says.
"Of course, Mr. Juan," cutting the phone call I looked at Aisha and hand over her phone to her which she took away from me angrily.
