LUIS P.O.V

Congratulations guys for all the efforts each and every one of you put in for the company to win this prestigious award last night. Am very happy that we are all working towards the success of this company and in achieving the company's goals. I will urge all of you to continue with your good work done and once again congratulations to all of us. Enjoy the rest of your night and have fun. Thank you.

That was a nice speech Luis,very touching.Mark congratulated me as he offered me a glass of wine to celebrate the company's success and for winning the International Entrepreneur of the year award. ‘Phone ringing'...Hello my son and the international Entrepreneur of the year, congratulations on winning the award last night. You really deserve it and am so proud of you.My mom said as we talked on the phone. I have met a very young and beautiful lady who is well mannered and I want you to stop it mom!. I quickly interrupted before she told me to marry her. I never believed in true love again after Jane cheated on me with my best friend after four years of being in a relationship. So I don't believe in love again,I know all girls are in my life just for fame and money so I will just have a one night stand with you,then pay you off that's all. You need to get a wife Luis and stop this promiscuous life of yours. You are not getting any younger,my mom said angrily and hung up the call.

Party over guys,we all need to have our rest because we have a busy day tomorrow,I announced as we departed to our various houses.

Congratulations sweetheart,you have made me very proud and I always believed in you. What are you doing here Jane? I asked with an angry face as I approached Jane who was standing beside my Rolls Royce. Honey, I am really sorry for whatever that happened between us. Am really sorry and regret everything I did to you sweetie. I love you very much and I want you to forgive me so that we start everything all over again. I promise I won't repeat that mistake again. Jane pleaded with tears in her eyes. It was too late Jane,I said and drove off.

Good morning Mr Luis,hope your night was good. Diana; my secretary greeted me as she served me my usual hot creamy breakfast every morning. Please get me all the documents which are yet to be signed and arranged for a meeting with the Indian investors at 3pm. I instructed Diana.

I am very disappointed and amazed at your new lifestyle and I don't even know where you learnt to live a promiscuous life. Moving from one girl to another. Your sister told me you brought another girl to the house last night. My mom scolded me as she called me on the phone. Mom, I have told you several times to stop interfering in my personal life, perhaps I am not a kid to be shown what to do with my life . I responded. Then get yourself one woman and settle with her because you are not growing any younger. She added .

I wanted to know if you have gotten anyone to occupy that secretary position you were telling me the other day?, she asked. Not yet mom Diana hasn't left yet. She still has one more month to leave her duty and will probably leave at the end of this month. I responded. I have even asked the Human resource manager to start with the recruiting process before the month ends. I continued. I have this girl who I want you to recruit and occupy that secretary position. I believe she will be perfectly fit for this role although she dropped out of college for some reasons which I will discuss with you later but please give her that chance. My mom pleaded. Come on mom,how do you expect the personal secretary of billionaire Luis Washington,the CEO of Washington Technologies to be a college drop out. How do you want the press to see me and how I run the organization?

She has no experience in being a secretary and you want me to employ her ??. I responded. Who is this girl and where did you meet her?. Am sorry mom but am not sure I can grant you this request,am sorry . I continued.

I know my son,but please just meet this girl and you will know she is a perfect girl to replace Diana. She is well mannered and is very good at communicating. My mom added. The Human Resource Department will do that job of getting me another secretary to replace Diana so don't worry about that. I said. I understand my son,just meet this girl for once and if she is not fit for the role, I promise I won't interfere with your recruitment ever again. Just meet her for once . My mom pleaded . Alright mom, I will meet this lady who has been able to convince you that she can do this job as someone who is a college dropout with no experience in this field. I agreed just to escape her plenty of talks and to cut her off.

Goodbye mom,I love you and meet me at Las Royale restaurant with the lady tomorrow in the evening at 7pm.
