Rising Shadow

Chapter 4

After a while of travelling.

Mr. Thompson says "Ma'am we are being followed"

"First of all don't call me Ma'am when we are not in office or anywhere official. I have already said you a thousand times, and followed by whom" saying so I looked back, seeing a little more closely I saw it was our dear Mr. Williams but the question was why was he following my car was he doubting my identity. Thinking so I said to Mr. Thomson "tint the glasses and bring the barrier on". Yes my car had these facilities I could tint hole of my car and nobody would know what's going on inside. I usually don't use it but right now I had the need to.

So Mr. Thompson did it very fast and I started changing. I have some clothes in here so yeah.

After disguising myself perfectly I remove the barrier and I asked if the car was still following the answer did not shock me. We were still being followed. But the question was wasn’t he dropping Emily home then where was she I looked back and saw he was alone . No big deal he won't recognize me.

All this while I didn't even notice we already reached office and he won't be able to enter here I thought smiling to myself. Making my way towards the elevator I press the key to the floor which had my and Noah’s office.

Reaching there Cassie my assistant came and greeted me "Good afternoon ma'am we will be having our meeting in 15 minutes if you say we can delay it a bit so you can have your lunch".

"No need to postpone the meeting we will conduct it as it is scheduled and I can have my lunch after that or we can have a sandwich that will not take that long. So ya bring me a sandwich". Saying so I entered my office I hadn't decorated it much. It had a sofa, a coffee table, my table, some chairs, two boxes and one cabinet. I had a vase at the corner of the room. The plus point or rather the best point of my office was that it was made up of complete glass so you can see and let me tell you the view over here is just awesome. The whole city lights up at the evening and the view becomes more beautiful. A knock brought me back "come in" I said so taking my seat.

"Ma’am your sandwich and we have meeting in 8 minutes" Cassie said placing my lunch on the table. "Ok you prepare the files I'll come in 3 minutes" saying so I started chewing my sandwich and was done before 3 minutes. Standing up and tiding myself I went to the door where Cassie was already waiting. Together we made our way towards the meeting room all while Cassie briefed me about the meeting we were having.

Let me tell you about Cassie 23 years old has a beautiful shade of brown hair always pulled up in a neat ponytail she had naturally tan skin and a fabulous height of 5.10 inches, if I were a guy I would have totally gone for such a girl she was completely hardworking and genuine she cares a lot for me.

We reached the room and Cassie held the door for me. I entered greeting everybody only to be greeted by there shocked faces which held amusement and then. "good afternoon gentleman we can start our meeting and you can take your seats" saying so I entered and took my seat at the head making them even more shocked as the meeting started but they had some annoying questions to be answered .

"Who is she, we were informed that the boss wanted a meeting" a man with glasses spoke to Noah "is this a joke to you people" he just shouldn't have added this. This made Noah enraged he said "you wanted a meeting with the boss yet when she arrives neither you greet her afternoon nor do you acknowledge her. She is the boss here and that's enough, think before you speak. This words means a lot to us a lot more than you can think, what do you think that we are so desperate for this that we could have any nonsense and still do the deal" saying so Noah got up and started living the room. "The meeting is cancelled we won't deal with it". Said Arvin Noah's assistant conveying Noah's unsaid words leaving behind a set of fools.

"Noah please come back and take your seat it's ok its our fault we should have send them my whole data before conducting this meeting then this would have not happened am I right Mister" I said to the person wearing specs

The person who was much older sitting besides the person with glasses said "we are sorry it's just that it is not known who the owner is and before the meeting started we also signed the confidentiality documents stating the secrecy of your identity and people outside say that it's a guy so we were taken by surprise when you took the head seat I heartily apologize in behalf of my assistant can we please commence the meeting" the man in the suit said. "Noah we have already invested this much time come let's get over with this" I said in stern tone. Making Noah come back and sit silently. "Just because she is not offended doesn't mean I am not offended" Noah said before taking his seat. 

The meeting went on for 2 hours and finally after changing and accepting some clause the deal was finalised. So after the clients went off I asked "where were you missed today's classes, you know classes are important just a few more months and it will be over" "yeah I know I was preparing for this meeting that's all and you need to be a little more firm with these people they show you down and yet you give them chances" Noah said getting up.

"ok now come let's go just let me change it will take 2 minutes" Saying so we left after changing and deciding to make Noah's mood a little better I thought of taking him to his favorite restaurant.
