Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

Rowan was done with his morning routine, and it was still early in the morning, he slept for a few hours because he had so many meetings on his schedule, he showered and headed to the kitchen to brew some coffee, whiles sipping on the coffee the incident that occurred yesterday flashed across his mind, he still couldn't believe he almost hit someone with his car,he remembered the face of the person perfectly well, but she refused to look at him,he wondered why she looked so sad, and it seemed she was oblivious of her surroundings and not to forget she vanished into thin air, when he realised he was in deep thoughts thinking of a stranger like that,he scolded himself, this was sooo not him, he hardly thought of someone like that,but he was still disturbed, he finished his coffee, and got dressed and he was off to work.

..... Rowan's car was on the road to his company,an hour later he was about to reach the packing lot of his company,to his surprise there were paparazzi, he was used to this but he never give a f**k about them,to him they were bugs always annoying people,camera's started flashing some started asking questions, he couldn't hear because his car windows were rolled and he didn't want to hear, and where the f**k were the securities he murdered to himself, he picked his phone and dialed a number, soon the latter answered,where the fuck are you Ethan can't you see the paparazzi are here blocking my way, Rowan voice turned cold, call the securities and get down here,yes boss,we will be there in a second,Rowan hanged up,a minute later Ethan and the securities arrived,the securities started driving the paparazzi away whiles Ethan and the rest lead Rowan inside.Inside Rowan's office Ethan apologized for what happened, and proceeded with the matters at hand.Boss productivity is normal as usual, the Account Base Marketing is stable,but there is a problem,what problem, Rowan voice turned cold,uhmm there is shortage of employees in the B2B contact database,what do you mean there is shortage of employees in this company we have over hundreds of employees in this company, yes boss but we need more computer engineers because there are few of them,the last time I checked they were hundred,and we need 20 more because productivity is know on fertile grounds, and we cannot risk losing our customers, since online marketing is very potent nowadays,so we need your approval to employ more computer engineers,I will think about it and let you know, anything else,yes boss,we have a meeting with the Chinese investors,Am aware Rowan answered,then I will take my leave boss.

.....Elena got dressed after dropping John to school, she had to meet Mike at velvet cafe.She wondered why Mike couldn't tell her everything on the phone, was this so important,after she finished everything, she took a taxi,she reached the velvet cafe in less than an hour,to her surprise Mike was already seated waiting for her, Elena went close to where Mike was sitting and grabbed a seat whiles she greeted Mike

Elena:Good morning mike,Elena greeted.

Mike:Good morning dear, you look extra beautiful today.

Elena:Stop flattering me.

Mike:Am only saying the truth.

Elena:ok, so what did you want to tell me that was so important it couldn't be said on the phone.

Mike:Am ordering coffee and cookies🍪 for us, look through your menu if you need anything else let me know.

Elena:it's ok, coffee and cookies is ok.

Mike:Are sure you don't want anything else.

Elena:I don't want anything else,just tell me already Mike.

Mike:Alright,alright....I got you the job.

Elena:Really, really ,Elena's voice was full of joy and excitement,thank you sooo much Mike you don't know what this means to me, thank you sooo much I appreciate what you've done for me.

Mike:There's no need to thank me you are like a family to me, and I will always help my family out.But there is one problem.

Elena:A problem?

Elena's mood suddenly turned sour

Mike:Yes there is a problem,We are still waiting for the CEO'S approval to accept for new employees,if he approves then you can start working,is hard to convince that cold hearted CEO,so we have to wait.

Elena:ok,so is the CEO so cold hearted he won't approve for new employees.

Mike:Well we have to wait, am sure he will approve it.

Elena:Hmmmm, ok

Mike:Drink your coffee it will turn cold,don't worry he will approve of it.

Elena:I hope so.

After talking for some time Elena decided to head home, Mike decided to escort her,when they reached the apartment they said their goodbyes and Mike left,Elena closed the door, went towards the couch and slump herself in the couch,she really needed this job so bad,but the CEO...talking about the CEO,the famous CEO everyone is talking about,she picked her phone and decided to google for CEO of focus international company,all the information started to pop up,from his date of birth, full name,family,siblings,height, interest,marital status and so on,Elena decided to look at the images,what awaited her made her speechless,indeed he was soooo handsome,she wasn't someone who had interest in searching for someones information,but she was so curious this time,she kept scrolling through the images,she couldn't stop scrolling because he was sooooo handsome, he looked so good to be true, he was definitely the man of every girls dream,but not her she told herself, because though he was very handsome and breathtaking he was cold hearted he had no sympathy for anyone,and a man like him can get any woman he wants, and she didn't want a man like that,she wanted a man who was sympathetic towards others,a man who was kind hearted,a man who would love and cherish her, and besides this cold hearted CEO,will not want someone like her,someone from a poor family,someone like him will surely marry a rich girl like himself since he is even single,Elena was not someone who was interested in getting a rich man to marry,she wanted to marry someone who love her for her,after much contemplation she drifted to sleep.
