Chapter 5 - There is More

" How is everyone at home, especially your mothers? ", Rachel asked adjusting her sitting position.

" They are fine. . . ", Charlotte replied, " Mrs McCool, you can't possibly call us here to just ask about our mothers, especially when you could have just called them yourself to ask that. So what's the real issue? "

" I like the way you think. . . very strategic. You are right I have something that I need all of your help for "

" What's that? ", Charlie asked curious.

Clearing her throat she replied, " The thing is that my husband, the vice head of the Council, is celebrating our company's thirtieth anniversary next week. I would really like to invite you and your families that is both the Coranos and Ano'ia family ".

" That's strange. You know you can just come to the family house and present the invitation to them personally. Well unless there is some kind of conflict between you guys ", Trinity chipped in surprised at the request.

" Yes I know. . . it's just that . . . that . . . I . . . I ", the Minister stammered apparently looking for the right words to use.

" The problem is that she would like you to specially invite your elder brothers to the event. She wants those three to come to the event so that we can strike an alliance ", Nathaniel said helping his mother who shocked to hear his voice as she had forgotten his presence.

" Those three?? ", Charlotte asked with a slightly confused expression.

" Yes! Daniel, Joseph and Chris. Well, we only like to talk to Daniel and Joseph since apparently Chris is a bastard but people don't talk about it because his mother's status in the world and also the fact that she is the only daughter of another rich family. That doesn't make him important ".

" I . . . ", Charlotte was about to reply him but was suddenly interrupted by a lady who knocked at the door, walking in she told the Minister, " Ma you have some visitors "

" Who? ", she asked as she wasn't expecting anyone else today.

" Actually they want to see Miss Trinity "

" Hold on . . . they are here already. Jeez I was expecting them to arrive in about an hour. Let them in ".

Turning to the Minister for confirmation, the Minister simply said still curious, " Bring them in ".

" Yes ma ", the lady said before leaving them.

" If I may ask who exactly did you invite over ", the Minister asked Trinity, making her look up from her phone.

" Nathan said earlier that you guys would like to strike an alliance with ' those three '. So I thought why can't you invite them personally ", she replied.

" So that means that they will be here any minute "

" I guess so . . . "

The door opened again but this time three handsome young men walked into the room. Anyone who could see them, could tell they lived in money. They all had a mind of aura which described their high class lifestyle.

Not only that but they were equally gorgeous. I'm pretty sure the gods took extra time in moulding them.

With a smirk on her face Charlotte said inwardly, " Now I understood why women can't seem to let go even if they dumped them or already another lady ".

Sitting down and resting his back on the chair, looking like a king Joseph said, " I was told that you would like to do business with us, which is quite strange as I am confused as to what help I would do to the Ministry of Health "

" Mind me. I'm not the one who would like to do business with you. It's actually my husband that wanted to invite you to McCool Enterprise's thirtieth anniversary.

" Hmmm. . . that's quite an accomplishment ", Daniel complimented.

" Thank you. So will you do us the honour of coming for the anniversary party ", Nathaniel quickly replied turning to them as he was sitting at the left hand of his mother while they sat at the other end of the long conference table, which had ten chairs on either side.

" Depends on when it will take place ", Daniel replied.

" That's not a problem. It's next week Friday "

" If that's the case, we will be there ", Joseph replied with some kind of businessman tone which somehow offended Nathan.

He felt like Joseph was talking like he was begging him to come to the party.

" Damn I hate this guy. The only reason why I'm tolerating him is because of dad and mum ", he said in his mind still keeping a plain face.

The room was quiet for some time until the Minister said, " Less I forget, the dress code is blue for ladies and black for the men. I will send the invitation cards to your parents home later today "

" No probs ", Charlotte said getting up from her sit, " I guess we will be on our way then. Right ladies? "

" Uhmmm . . . yeah . . . we should be on our way ", Charlie said in support.

" Even we have to go . . . seems like we have meeting with one of our clients ", Joseph said looking up from his phone.

" That's bad. I would have loved you guys to join us for lunch but it's ok. See you at the party "

" Sure. Bye ", Charlotte replied with a light smile.
