The wedding night

Episode 10-The meeting

Melody POV

I have never seen a man as crazy and ruthless as my new boss. The only reason I'm keeping up with him was to find the truth about his real identity. He could be Franklin or not but, I had to find out.

He needed help because he wasn't acting like a normal person.

"Maybe he is a psychopath," I thought as I stared through the transparent glass.

His head was placed on his desk and I wondered what was going through his mind. I have learned that people who are suffering from trauma or disorder tend to have anger issues and my new boss was showing signs of a psychopath. The franklin I knew will never act like my new boss.

After staring at him for some minutes, I busied myself with the upcoming meeting. When it was exactly Noon, I walked into my boss's office to inform him about the meeting in case he forgot.

I knocked on his office door and when I didn't get a reply, I opened the door.

"Sir, it's noon already. Should I set up the conference room?"

He looked up from his computer and stared blankly at me.

"Set up the conference room. I'll be there in five. The Chinese investors should be here soon," he informed.

"Yes sir, "I bow and left the office.

As soon as I came outside, I met Lindsey and Anita talking by my desk. I waved at them but it was only Anita who waved back.

"Hi, "I greeted as I walked to my desk. "What's up, "I said again.

Lindsey ignored me while Anita replied to my greetings.

"Shouldn't you be setting up the conference room for the meeting? "Lindsey inquired in a mean tone.

I had no idea why she hated me. I thought people like her existed in fictions novel.

"That's is what I'm about to do miss obvious, "I replied and walked away from her.

I headed to the conference room and set everything in order. A cup of coffee and a biscuit on each table. There were about 23 chairs and a long conference table. When I was done, I went back to my desk and waited patiently for the Chinese investors to arrive.

When they arrived, I informed the boss and we all headed to the conference room. The head of departments and some board of directors were present at the meeting.

I guess the meeting was important to the extent that the higher-ups were present. The only reason I was present in such meeting was that I was a personal assistant and my presence matters for taking notes.

"Shall we proceed?" The hoarse voice of my boss bought me out of my pointless thoughts.

"We want something different this time. Give us a new product this time." One of the Chinese men spoke up.

I was mentally laughing at how small his eyes were. His face was round as an orange and the black hair that covered half his face made him look like a ball. I couldn't suppress the laughter and didn't know when I started laughing.
