Sean was seated in the chairman's office; he was officially done with a project that he had been working on for quite some months now. Since the project had been successful the Chairman wanted to reward him.
He smiled at the man who had shown him a lot of love in his own way as a father, a man who had tried by all means to change so that he could accommodate him and his needs, a man who had shown great love and trust in his inexperienced wife who had done wonders ever since she got the position as the face of the company.
'I called you here to say thank you for everything you did. You brought the tiger out of Andrew and I think it is time for him now to be the next C.E.O,' his stepdad said and he nodded his head.
'He has always been a hardworking man and I have always admired him. In a way he will never know, he was my role model. He made me to be competitive, I didn't want to lose to him and I bet he too didn't want to lose to me,' Sean said as he sipped his glass of water.
'I noticed that. I always thought that you will keep on fighting but now I can be at ease. I am glad that there will be peace in the family but we still need to talk about it and clear all unnecessary misunderstandings,' his step dad said.
'I will settle that with Andrew so don't worry,' he told his stepdad.
'Are you sure you don't want to be promoted? The position can be yours,' he got himself tempted once more but Sean shook his head in denial.
'I don't want to be greedy. I have a family to take care of now and being in those unending wars, will not be healthy for me, Selena or the baby,' he explained to him.
Sean found the old man smiling and nodding his head.
'What you are saying makes sense. I gave my all to the company and spent less time with my family. They have never known what is like to be loved but I am glad that you are willing to do that. Money might be important but it is also important to be happy with the people that you love. Don't regret it later when it is too late to remedy it,' his step dad gave him some advice and he nodded in response.
'I will bear that in mind,' he said and looked at the watch. It was already near lunch and it was time for him to leave.
'Do you have any lunch appointment?' his step dad asked and he looked at the old man with a smile.
'I am afraid I do. I have to take my leave now, I will see you another time,' Sean said as he stood up.
'It's okay; run along before she gets sulky,' his step dad said and he looked at him with shock. How did he know that he was meeting his wife?
'I can tell by your eyes, anyone can see it. My son is madly in love with his wife. Thanks to you, our company is faring well,' his step dad said and he found himself laughing.
'I am glad to hear that. I will bring her up to say her greetings,' Sean said but his dad shook his head.
'Don't bother, my wife is waiting for me at home too and I would rather go and have some lunch with her. You two have some fun and tell her to take it easy. She shouldn't be going everywhere in her state,' his step dad reminded him.
'I will take note of that.'
Sean finally left the office and took the elevator down for the first floor. His wife had sent him a text telling him that she was about to arrive which meant that she will be arriving any second from now. It didn't take long before the SUV arrived and the guards opened the door for her. He smiled as he watched her get out of the car, for someone who was huge thanks to the pregnancy it was a miracle that she was walking on her two feet but just in case, a wheelchair was always on standby.
