CHAPTER 54: THE MEETING
The scenario Bradley witnessed in the company with the injured girl and her mother has got him thinking a lot.
“Assistant Lucas, the injury Georgina sustained when we hit her before. Do you think you can stop feeling the pain in just a day?”I asked Jack carefully.
“It’s not possible I am sure that ma’am Gina will be in a lot of pain that she won’t even be able to sleep that day,” assistant Lucas says, and what he said even makes my heart tremble more.
“About the investors meeting we are going to, can it be canceled “I asked him.
“Sir I don’t think it will be okay sir because this is the first investor of Mega3 electronics so, I think we need to meet him”.
“Ok, “I say, acknowledging him.
After we reached the place I couldn’t help but look at it suspiciously.
“Why would anyone want to meet in an isolated restaurant like this?”I asked assistant Lucas but he just explained that the investor is not a social person, that’s why he asked to meet there.
I walked into the restaurant with my graceful aura and when I looked around I noticed that the restaurant is so scanty that you will think it was out of business.
“Which restaurant only has a table for four people, e,” I asked assistant Lucas and I could see he was just as confused.
“Welcome to Bluebird restaurant this is the way to your table,” a young girl in her 20s says.
“I don’t think you should bother about that, “I say, making my way to the only available table in the restaurant and I get myself seated.
I looked around the restaurant and I don’t know why it gives off this bad vibe like I shouldn’t be there in the first place.
UNKNOWN POV
“Boss, they say Bradley Hale is already at the restaurant, what should we do,” Miles asked his boss.
“You guys shouldn’t do anything, let him wait, “the man says, adjusting his gray tie.
“Did you think this tie suits me?” he asked Miles and he nodded his head.
“I have to look good since today is the first time we will be seeing ourselves up close after a very long time”.
“What did you plan to do about Jayden since he didn’t meet your requirements”.
“You don’t usually see the big picture Miles did you think there is anyone that can fight against the succession of Hale group with Bradley except Jayden,” he says Miles shakes his head and he continues”that’s why we need Jayden even though he is useless but I can use someone more useful, make sure you find me a meeting with Will Hale”.
“I think it’s time we finally meet Bradley Hale,” he says looking at himself in the mirror.
“We have been waiting for 30 minutes Jack, are you sure we arrived at the agreed time?”I asked assistant Lucas coldly, because who dared Bradley Hale stand up?
“Yes, sir I am very sure noon it’s the agreed time, “assistant Lucas asked with a collected voice though his palm was all sweaty.
“Then why….”Bradley was saying but was cut off by the restaurant door opening. A tall man with blond hair, an admirable nose, and well-sculptured face and a well-tailored suit walked through the restaurant. A man also walked behind and I think that should be his assistant.
“I am sorry I’m late, my flight got delayed, that’s why,” he said walking up to our table.
“It’s fine, “I say standing up.
“I am Daniel Taylor the CEO of TEE HOLDINGS and this is my assistant Miles Chucks”.
“I’m Bradley…”
“You don’t need to introduce everyone in Newtown or should I say the world knows that”.
“That’s too much exaggeration because if I am well known how could someone stand me up, “I say with a crazy glint in my eyes and I studied the man expecting him to show any reaction to what I said but he just laughs it up and that’s when I know that he stood me up on purpose.
“Since I am already late, let’s quickly get down to business. Your secretary already sent me the contract and I can say the Hale group is stingy when it comes to partnership,” he says, expecting to irk me but I didn’t give him any reaction.
“You are not a partner, you are an investor that will get his money back after the product launch,” I say and he just smiles and I can’t help but applaud him for being a good mask master. He is either a con artist or a really capable person.
“3% of Hale electronics is all I am asking for then you can have all of my money”.
“I think we are going to sit again to discuss this, “I say standing up.
“We are going to make a good partner. Why are you like this? Miles is already with the contract, you can just go through it yourself”.
“Have a nice day Mr. Taylor. “I say walking out of the restaurant because I won’t tolerate nobody having shares in my company.
“What an arrogant jerk and I know why you are arrogant but I am sure it won’t last”Daniel mutters with his lively face earlier changing to a murderous one.
“What did you know about Daniel Taylor, “I asked assistant Lucas.
“He is a young man that shocked the whole country S by acquiring a company that has recorded bankruptcy and turned it into the top 20 in just a month so, I think he is a good businessman”.
“What a joke! How did he have the money to purchase a company? I want you to find out everything about Daniel Taylor and report it to me”.
“Everything?” assistant Lucas asked.
“Yes, everything I even wanted to know when he started taking his first step, “I say entering my car.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“But why are you curious about Daniel Taylor is it because his condition is outrageous, “assistant Lucas asked.
“No, it’s because I didn’t like his eyes, “I say remembering the look I saw on his face when I wanted to exit the restaurant. Maybe he isn’t that good with his mask, I thought.
