As Dove said that, she gave a collective answer to everyone present there. That there was no reason for them to worry. And she was very well aware of the powers and responsibilities that she held, and no one actually has to question them or comnt on it, especially people like Jacob. And then lastly, she also gave away a subtle hint for them all to take, was that she held on so weak point of Davis’s that led them to go on with the deal, no matter how absurd it was.
Jacob couldn’t say anything else, and just kept quiet. After all, he was smart enough to know that if he was to speak up anything in return to her, then all will see that he was deliberately challenging and questioning the CEO’s credibility. And that would be a wrong move right now, because most of them here were impressed by Dove right now.
The other executives and mbers in the room looked at each other, sharing so similar thoughts. After all, they had a hunch that proved to be right. When Dove had cancelled the deals, it had indeed been a personal attack against Davis’s.
But at the end, they were just happy that there was no issues to be concerned about. One of them looked at Dove and said with an approving nod, "CEO Dove, we trust on you that you would never do anything against the company’s interest."
Hearing that, Dove smirked and said with a curt nod, "Thank you for the trust." They ended the eting with a few words, and that the signing of the share contract, will be completed by tomorrow. The eting was adjourned and she left the eting room.
She found Dante already holding the door for her, and she looked up at him, to see that signature charming smile of his on his face, and she felt her heart race once more.
Damn! That eting had actually distracted sowhat, and now it was back.
The confident smirk that Dove carried on her face, llowed a little, and she looked away and walked towards the elevator, looking forward. Her mind and heart was back to buzzing, and she was cursing her self in her mind.
Dante’s lips instantly curved down from the smile, when Dove did not acknowledge him like she usually does. At other ti, she would smile at him back, and he would initiate sothing about how good she was during the eting, and she would happily talk about it back to him.
He sighed, when he noticed how her confident smile almost got wiped away when she saw him. It really saddened him. It seems that he had really angered her this ti. B
And he followed behind her. Dove did not talk much until she reached the office. And this ti, Dante did not follow her inside. Dove walked inside the office, and as the door closed behind her, she turned back and frowned.
He did not enter? She wondered. But then she again sighed, thinking that it was better otherwise, she couldn’t concentrate on her work, and would keep thinking and looking at him. He must gotten so work to do, he reasoned.
And thinking about that, she went to her desk and took her seat and resuming her work. But it wasn’t even a few minutes that passed, that she looked up again towards the door, and Dante had still not co. And at this, she held her head and gritted her teeth, "Damn it! What’s wrong with you, Dove? Just a mont ago, you were thanking God, that he wasn’t here. And now your eyes are already searching him? Have you lost it?!" She felt like cursing herself even more, but then she heard a knock on the door again.
It was Grace. Dove told her to co in. And after they finished the brief discussion about what was needed to, Dove gave her a brief account and instruction on what she needed to do, before Grace turned to leave.
And just before she could pull the door, the door was already pushed open from outside, surprising her. Dove who was sitting on her desk, also looked at the direction hearing the door open and Grace gasp.
Dante blinked on seeing Grace, before smiling at her, and said, "I am sorry. Ms Grace. I did not hurt you, did i?" Grace quickly shook her head and laughed it off politely, "No, no, it’s absolutely alright, Mr Lancaster. I was just a little surprised." She replied as she noticed that he was holding a small plastic bag carrying sothing.
She did not bother asking what it was, and before she could leave, Dante as if rembering sothing, said at once, "Ms Grace, wait." Grace stopped before looking back at him, and he took out a small tub of ice cream, and handed it to him saying, "Here, you can take this."
Grace looked at the ice cream, in surprise, and then back and Dante, who looked back at her, and smiled, "Thank you so much, Mr Lancaster." And then she left.
Dante looked at her go, and the small smile that he had on his lips flattened. He did not like to engage much with won, or smile at them and start a conversation. Well, of course except his only exception, Dove.
On normal days, too he hardly interacted with Grace, but today, he initiated it and also shared an ice cream, as he had noticed in these days, that this woman actually worked very hard for Dove. And Dove to valued and respected her a lot. So, sotis it wasn’t very bad to try to make a good impression on soone, whom his loved one held in value.
anwhile, Dove was looking at Dante, in her own thoughts. See, he smiles, helps, and talks politely with everyone, Dove. You are not so special. It is just him who is a gentleman. So stop over thinking your place.
