"So...."
Matt said with a curious look over other two in room.
"So.??"
Mark questioned him back.
"hey,this is not fair u can't do this to me . ok ,ok i know it was planned that we would counter tackle them from their own territory but is it really necessary to send me now when u are just back after 2 long years.Even a company of that woman who was just few minutes before fired . And yaa i know u have our so called three tier plan but at least spare me i am ur ONLY BEST FRIEND please at least tell me before hand so I can prepare myself. And I don't want to go now send me after 6 months when u will go back to UK. please ..... 😲😲"
In the end he turned to show his big misty eyes who were clearly showing his signature glaze of innocence no one can ever tell what kind of act he can't put on. But other two in room were immune to this act they turned their respective glaze to Matt then met with each others eyes , simply nodded and started to read files in their respective hands.
Matt still holding his expression waited
one second....
two second...
three second...
..
..
..
10 minutes.....
.....it was end of his tolerance he turned around and left the room by same back door every step and move made by him was so loud to be ignored.....still again he was totally ignored.
After silence of few minutes of silence Mark walked to coach where Grace was working on her tab and lappy again cross-examining.He bended his body made eye contact and said with a finger pointed out on her.
"Well, earlier what Matt said ,...., remember i am our ONLY BEST FRIEND ..., yaa he can be a spare copy or whatever but it is me who is number one. i hope I don't need to remind u again"
He said in his most authorized voice like he was taking to his business partner about his share of company and is no mood of negotiation. Grace was used to this"war"between her two friends ,she thought if it was really necessary as for her both were incomparable part of her life and can't be forgotten .
She smiled which was half laugh.
"okay man , but u need to sort this imp matter with him urself . U know u both can decide together . i am out of it."
To change the topic she added
"Who is the buyer and why can't we get to him directly it is a way too secretive about his info"
Mark sat beside her and after a long sigh he said"i also found it a way too mysterious and asked Matt to gain info over the buyer . It's that it was his lawyer who bidded and signed the contract on his behalf and even that lawyer has never directly contacted that man ,he is under mysterious identity and a man called Manager Lee is the one who is controlling and managing every thing.
We contacted him and used every legal way to get some info from him but he is experienced and a loyal kind of man he straight left room after he found out that we are looking for his boss".
"And info from Matt?"asked Grace with a knowing look.
"Waiting..."again a sign
"okay we will get it from him when we will go back and before u say me i am back here because of three reasons firstly Uk branch is stable and working great in capable hands and as the two new branches are going to operational from next month i wanted to share ur load of 6th and 7 th branch.
Second UN has agreed to our proposal and all our 40 hospitals in different parts of world will get the funding so that research labs can settled it is exchange for our best results in medicines that are not only effective and with no or negligible after effects but are financially feasible.
Lastly the small heaven(name of the piece of land) ... agh.... i don't know till when I need to bear this but I can't just let it go . it's the place where all this started ... i need that land , I can't let it go.
Nina is oblivious so I can't blame her and was a mistake that she committed without being aware of the land's importance but it was still a mistake so I even can't just ignore it . After all we work with thousands of employs who are from different walks of life but only similarity can be found is that they are employs of RAPG co-op . We need to maintain discipline and can't afford to loose their focus and our respect in their eyes even if it is horror .
Nina with her talent and skills is a powerful asset we can't lose and she fits for the underground task we are going to perform in South Africa so it is helpful for Matt.
And about HOD of law department....sign..... i found him honest so it is better to set a base for Matt and Nina's help in South Africa .
Happy i told u my plan now don't dare to paster me ur speech 'u should at least think about ur image and all ' and never try to behave like that it is in my personality u understand right"
Matt was speechless he just witnessed her long professional presentation and at last saw her cute puppy eyes hoping for his agreement (defeat) .
.'man this woman is really a blood sucking demoness . who in the world plans their work as their breakfast, lunch and dinner manner . So called three tier planning scheme ...hmph....thank god I went to business studies not she . if it was her what kind of cunning fox would be out for us' Matt's words suddenly appeared in his brain . Though he scolded and denied his words back then now he was doubting himself.
"No need to say I understand now even my image is not like old me. Now it is me called as mastermind in office after I locked the deal with the 4 hospitals we brought under our wings ."
Matt said with a understanding nod to Grace who further commented"What's wrong with people now days I thought cunning fox suits u more after all Dr. Grace who is the biggest name in cardio-thoraic world and President&CEO of RAPG co-op it should be me whose nickname should be mastermind, no ..."
With that the mood changed and a burst of laughter echoed in room.
After whole day of work Grace with Mark left the office and went to their place ,yes,their ,her ,Mark's, and Matt's they have a bungalow in the high end part of city which is only used when all 3 are in city it is a kind of common place for them to relax and enjoy each other's company. For last 5 years it was very rare for 3 of them to meet and relax as they are busy to flourish and establish RAPG co-op in this competitive world of business without any backing. 3 youngsters and their dream without any support only with their skills and talent they made it possible by giving it their sweat and blood .
