Noah reached his company as fast as possible. He wanted to finish with all his etings for the day as soon as possible so that he could spend more ti with Aria before she left. Though he wanted to cancel his schedule for the day, he couldn't as he had this eting fixed months ago and it would deem highly unprofessional to cancel it at the last mont.
"Ronnie, when does the first eting start?"
"Boss, it's at 10.30."
"Okay."
Noah sauntered inside the elevator and went to his floor directly, with Ronnie behind him. Shane got up imdiately seeing his arrival. "Good morning, Boss."
"Morning Shane." He wished him rendering both Ronnie and Shane speechless. It was the first ti Noah was wishing anybody. Usually, they would receive a nod if everything was alright, nothing if he was moody and a glare if he was angry. Today, he had wished Shane back and it was a huge surprise for them.
Noah went inside his cabin while Ronnie stayed behind.
"What happened to Boss? He looks happy." Shane asked his eyes fixed on the closed door. He was still unable to comprehend what he just witnessed.
"He stayed at Madam's house all night. I don't think we need to talk more about it. I think we know what would have taken place."
Shane's mouth dropped as he glanced at Ronnie who gave a nod in return. So, Boss was happy because he was with Madam. That explains his behavior.
"I just hope Boss remains happy forever." Shane sighed, his eyes filled with respect.
" too," Ronnie exclaid. But he knew that would not be the case when all the truth ca out. Everything lied in Aria's hands. If she forgave his Boss, then that would be great. If she didn't, then the actual problem would occur.
"Shane, we have to finish with the etings as early as possible."
"Why? Is there sothing?"
"Yes. Madam will be going out of town for a while and nobody knows when she will return. So, Boss wants to spend so ti with her before she left."
"I understand."
At that mont, the elevator dinged. Ronnie and Shane looked at each other in confusion. The highest floor, which had Noah's cabin, was not accessible for everyone in the company. Ronnie, Shane, two other male assistants and a female secretary were the only ones who had direct access to the floor. Very few employees at the top managent level were allowed to co here. However, they had to inform Shane before they ca here.
As far as Shane knew, nobody had inford him nor was there was a eting fixed beforehand by any of the employees. So, he was confused as to who was here. Their confusion turned to shock when Mia Stevenson stuttered inside in her five inched heels. The clicking sound was too loud in the peaceful atmosphere.
Seeing Mia walk in, Ronnie frowned. 'What was this woman doing here? How did she co in and why did nobody from the reception inform them?' He gave one look to Shane and he understood imdiately. He went to her blocking her way.
"What are you doing? How dare you block my way?" She seethed. She looked extrely ugly with the way her face contoured and the make-up she had applied was hideous. Shane was very short of getting a heart attack looking at her. She looked more frightening than any of the ghosts he had seen in horror movies.
"Hello, Miss Stevenson. May I ask your purpose of visit today?" Shane was extrely polite to her though he did not have to give her any face. He could have asked her to leave at once, but he didn't out of respect.
"Why should I tell you? I'll tell Noah." She said arrogantly, taking Noah's na directly.
Shane looked at her in contempt. 'What made her take his Boss's na? She was not related to him in any way. She was only being haughty here. Where was her attitude when she was getting humiliated by Boss?' He scoffed.
Mia saw the look of disdain in his eyes and her anger increased even more. "How dare a lowly employee like you regard this way? Is this the way you treat a guest in your office? I am going to complain to Noah."
Seeing Mia's reasonable behavior, Ronnie ca to Shane's help. "Miss Stevenson, if you have co here as a guest behave like one. You have not followed the protocols ant for a guest and have barged in here without an appointnt. It is you who is at mistake. So, even if you complain to our Boss, you would be at the receiving end. Also, I don't think you are that close with our Boss to be calling his na directly."
"How dare you? I am Noah's friend. I don't think I need an appointnt to co here."
"That is where you are wrong." Ronnie interrupted her.
"Even his family mbers need an appointnt if they want to et him in the company. You are just a friend."
"I am going to complain to Noah. Let's see how you will survive in this company." She threatened them.
"Who dares to threaten my employees in my company?" A voice bood suddenly taking everyone by shock. Nobody knew when Noah had co out of his cabin and had seen everything that had occurred there.
Mia stuttered to him with a face filled with grief. "Mr. Carter, your employees are ill-treating your guests. I didn't know Carter Enterprises entertained such people."
"Yes, Carter Enterprises does not entertain such people," Noah stated, making Mia smile evilly at Ronnie and Shane. 'They thought they could make leave. Dream on.' However, to her dismay, the two people did not look terrified. Instead, they looked calm their eyes mocking her.
"Ronnie, what is this woman doing here?"
Mia looked at Noah in horror. "Mr. Carter, I am Mia, Mia Stevenson. Don't you rember? I ca to discuss a deal a few days ago."
"I don't keep records of trashy people in my mory. I have better things to rember."
"Mr. Carter," Mia wailed.
"What are you doing? Take this woman away from here." He ordered.
Mia stared at Noah, her eyes turning red. Tears started to flow down. "Miss Stevenson, please." Ronnie gestured for her to follow.
"Don't touch . I know my way." She huffed and left the floor.
"Shane, inform the HR departnt to fire the receptionists. We do not want inefficient people who do not know how to do their work."
Ronnie and Shane gave each other a look. The people in the ground floor had it that day. They were supposed to do one work and they had failed to do so. Now, they had to face their Boss's wrath.
