The next day was very promising or at least was supposed to be so... She was going to meet a potential client. The man who would help her get enough grounds to really and firmly preach her idea to her father and hopefully he'll accept because the plan was air-tight. She was going to propose a contract that was beneficial to both parties. With the client's product and her companies storage and distribution centres, everything would go smoothly, that's if the client is smart enough to jump on board.
She got up early even though she hadn't slept enough, her body was still tired but her soul was too willing to even feel that physical weakness. She got to the bathroom, brushed up, had a warm shower and dried her hair. Then she heard a knock on the door before she could choose an outfit for the day.
"Miss Micha, Good morning"..... "What do you want, better be important... I thought I told you guys not to knock on my door in the mornings. You upset me in the morning and my whole day is spoilt. I don't have the temper for this."
"... Sorry Miss Micha but Master requested I fetch you, he's in this study and he says you should be there now..... Sorry again"
She sighed and went to pick out what to wear, she choose black denim jeans, a black long sleeve shirt with a coat and wore her heels. Black suited her, but that wasn't the reason why her closet was mostly black, she had a few other colours but didn't wear them often. She believed black came with intimidation and she also wanted to pick out dresses quick as possible. She was a businesswoman, she couldn't possibly waste time on what to wear.
"Dad, you called for me... Yes, I did, ermm darlings, I know how desperate you are to lead the company but, there's more to the world than leading the company. I see the passion my mother had in you, and as much as that makes me happy to see that resemblance, it scares me that I'd give you this and in return, you'll be all by yourself in future, in the name of leading the company. So I have a proposal... If you accept, you can take the seat in the company but you have a duration period."
"Okay, what's the proposal, I'll do anything, as long as I can get that seat... So tell me dad was that proposal" ...." You get married within 6 months....."
The old man seemed very serious, she wanted to laugh and say dad stop joking, but the expression he had right now meant he was damn serious and now she was scared. She wasn't interested in anything associated with marriage. She would do anything but that, or at least she wished she wouldn't have to do that. She was short-tempered and could hardly tolerate anyone, anyone aside from Jones. She hadn't seen him for so long, not a call or a text or a mail. Jones would have been the perfect fit for this, her best friend would have helped her out... But that friend of hers was long gone and she didn't understand what happened to their friendship.
