After saying this, she went away, and I smirked at hearing her.
The gathering has begun precisely five minutes past the hour, and the host has taken up position in the middle of the room, away from the stage, and made a few announcements.
The individual moved to the side after the announcement and said, "Ok, now the head of the department will announce the selected companies." In close proximity to the microphone was the other individual, who is almost in his fifties.
"Good morning to all. I am hoping that all of you are doing well. Today we are here to make the tender announcement of the tender. I know that each of you gave it your best effort, but we have to give the award to the best, right? So we selected one company. To be more specific, there are two companies that are located in close proximity to one another, and with a difference of ten dollars, the other person was able to bag it. So, the compopany who got this tender is," saying this, he paused in his words.
"It is my company," Ava said with a smirk on her face as she looked at both of us. I didn't respond to her and crossed my legs, sitting back. She frowned at seeing me not responding to her and with a relaxed mind.
I just put my whole concentration on the person who is announcing. "So the person who got selected in this tender is none other than the great Zephyr. As of now, we all know his capabilities and he would never take a word of failure and as usual, he bagged the project. Many many congratulations to you, Mr. Zephyr," the person announced. I just nodded my head.
In fact, as he said, I would never accept the failure and success is my concern. I never let it go away from me nor do I work hard for it, and at the same time, I never say by God's grace. I always trust in myself and always give my 100% and that's the reason behind my success.
Everyone started congratulating me and I stood there silently. After everyone was calm, the person looked at me and said,
""Mr. Zephyr, I would like to invite you on stage and sign the file for namesake. We will discuss the other things further in another meeting."
Then, silently standing up from my seat, I gracefully walked towards the stage and signed the papers. He shook my hand and congratulated me.
"You are an inspiration to many youth out there and to the ones who are networking into this business world just now. I am happy to let you handle this project," the person said, to which Epnhyr just smiled a little and thanked him.
Later, he turned towards the crows who were standing there with sad faces as they missed the project, but he still got the heart to congratulate him and said,
"Thank you everyone for the wishes. And I know you all will make it next time for sure. Don't be sad and listen, no success will come without failure. I won't say the filmy dilaogues like heavens have planned the best for you but I would say that when you dreamed of something, always chose the correct path and success would come to you because you deserve it, not because you planned it."
By healing his motivational words, everyone is able to come out of their sadness, maybe not fully, but at least a bit and then nod their heads. Seeing the relaxed faces of everyone, I felt relived, and a smile appeared on my lips. But, even before someone could notice it, I said it and then turned to the person who just announced my name and said,
"We will have the meeting tomorrow in my company and we will finalize everything." After saying this, I walked down the stage.
"What company was very near Zephyr's company? Please announce the other company names also," someone suggested from the group and then, as KI expected, he announced the company's name.
I know she would be fuming in anger after hearing my name, and now she would be enraged. I didn't even cast my gaze towards her and I walked out of the place along with Daniel.
"Boss, have you seen the face of Miss Ava? She is fuming and nagered," Daniel said while taking long strides with me. \ I looked at him and turned my head away without answering. He became silent after getting my answer. We went towards our car and Daniel unlocked the car door for me.
"Zephyr." I heard someone calling my name and I already knew who it was. I don't want to stop so I got into my cat. She took bigger strides and reached me just before Daniel closed my side door. She held it in her left hand and said,
"I want to talk with him alone."
"Daniel, she wants to talk with you about something. Complete it quickly or else I will leave you here and go away," I ordered him.
"Argh, what should I talk with a person who is just your mere assistant? I want to talk with you," she said and her way of describing him made me enraged.
I didn't even think of the place where we were and gripped her neck in my arms without even keeping my leg outside of the room. "Darfe, you speak anything less than hihm. I will see your end right now," I warned her with gritted teeth.
Her face turned red and she is trying to make herself free from my clutches. Seeing it, Daniel Trie decided to make her release from me. "Boss, leave her. She would die right away if you clutched her like this," he said, trying to calm me down.
I didn't pay heed to him but he requested me a lot and finally I left her, pushing her away from me. She went back and was about to fall but she took a breath and saved her face.
