Chapter 2 What is going on

It's been some time since we came back from shopping.

Now we were in the living room having snacks Sophia was still feeling bad for her earlier outburst.

" I'm sorry Clair about what happened earlier, it's just I thought he was shopping for me with you because he forgot about it earlier that's why I was angry, he knows you know me better than anyone else "she explained.

I'm sure she would have kicked Tony's ass if I didn't have to step into their argument.

" I agree with that! Since you are my bestie from childhood but I don't know what he proposed to you, you were my bestie from childhood and are like my sister to me my stupid brother was supposed to see you as his sister but he seems to have some loose screws. !!

Tony gives me a confused yet shocked look while Sophia seems to be sad.

" Ain't you happy with our relationship, don't you like me as his girlfriend? "Uh nh, It is not that, I love you as my sister from the beginning and if I wouldn't won't agree to your engagement and now stop addressing yourself as his girlfriend, you are not his girlfriend, you are his fiancee ...it's been two months that you two have been.

" She is my bestie! And I will tell her anything ...besides she always tells me everything about you " I corrected her, And in return, she blushed.

Tony nudges my arm " Stop teasing my fiance" I give him a glare.

"Today's date "Tony's mouth falls open.

We both laugh at his reaction, even after everything he still forgot about their anniversary.

Later in the evening, they both left to enjoy their private lives.

So I enjoyed the movie with popcorn in my room. After watching the movie , I had dinner with Mom and Dad.

" Are you enjoying your new office ?? " Dad questions me.

Yes I got a promotion last week in my dad's company.

Where I started as an ordinary employee just because Dad wanted me to join and I chose to be an ordinary employee as I didn't want to use my surname In my career.

" Yeah " I answered him.

" How is it all? Are you enjoying it ?? Mom questions.

She has always been interested in my choices.

"It's good! " I tried to sound much more appealing.

After dinner with them night and to my room In minutes I was on my baby drifting to a deep slumber

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day,

It was almost lunchtime.

But I was too busy to even breathe.

We launched two new products last week, One energy drink from the food department and one smart watch from the gadget department.

It's been a hell of a week, so tiring.

And still, I have so much work left to finish today God! Please help me,

Have some mercy on me!

The intercom rang, I pressed the button and Claire's sweet voice echoed in my cabin _

" Miss Amber, your father wants to meet you in the meeting room, he is expecting you to be there in 10 minutes " she explains.

What Dad wants to meet me?

What is it ?? He never calls me to meet him at office times Well apparently According to him, it's unprofessional but Tony and I never are.

"Okay! I'll be there, and Claire __how many times do I have to remind you not to call me so formally, you make me sound like an oldie in her fifties (I giggled) ___so call me Rebecca " I answer her getting irritated by that boring title.

" Will take care next time Rebecca" She answers and I can feel a small smile on her lips.

leave my cabin and head towards the meeting room.

As I reached there I saw a very nervous Tony in the corridor outside the meeting room.

He was pacing to and fro in front of the meeting door.

What's up with him now?

" Everything's fine bro ?! " I asked him about this situation. I was really concerned about both of us being called to my dad's office during working hours screams that something is wrong.

He muttered a"yes " but shook his head in no.

What does that even mean?

Something is wrong.

What got him so nervous?

to move towards him while he questioned me.

" Why are you here? "

" Dad called me to meet him in 10 "I answered.

" So he called you too ?! "

" Yeah! But what's wrong? Why are you so nervous " I ask him.

" He never calls me to meet him personally during working hours, you know his rules and it's me who always goes to him for any problem and whenever he wanna talk about any project, he tells me beforehand ...unless " he trails off.

From his tone, I can say that he is out and it's a serious situation or else he won't be like this, He is making me nervous now.

" Unless?? " pressed to know more about the situation

" Unless he is angry due to any mistake and the moment I step in he will shout at me for letting that mistake happen " he explains and makes me nervous also.

" So what have you done ?! I ask him.

" I do not remember any mistake, besides you are also here .„ so maybe you have done something" I didn't let him finish as I cut him off.

" I haven't done anything wrong besides both of our new products are doing good in the market " I answered him confidently.

I am sure I haven't done anything wrong.

"So I think we should go in now!' I said to him, hoping that he would make a move but he seemed to be glued to the floor.

" You go first! I'll follow you " he answers.

frown "You were here first you should go first.

He shook his head.

" Nooooo! Ladles first! "

So he does remember these manners.

Well then, two can play a game,l smirked mentally.

" You are older than me, so how can I disrespect you? You should enter first. I answered him. If he can play the manners card, so can I.

He raises his eyebrow as if ' seriously I give him a cheeky smile at that.

He sighs "The moment enter, he will shout at me for letting that small mistake happen "
