Chapter 188
Nicolas
“No Sir I did not know that Karen was your daughter.” I said with a little of a bite to it. “Oh, I thought she will tell you as this was all her idea.” “Her idea Sir?” “Yes, she sits on the board and what’s us to get an app for the company but she also wants an app for her own clothing line she’s designing. See, she said that it would be better if I talk to you as the two of you are romantically involved and business and relationships doesn’t work well together.” The fucking bitch she knew I wouldn’t listen to her now she got daddy to speak to me, but I’m not this hard up for business. “Sorry sir I think you are missed informed Karen and I are not romantically involved.” “But….” He tried to speak but I interrupted him. “In fact, sir I’m happy with my girlfriend, she’s the mother of my child.” “So, what Karen is your side piece?” He asked with actual disgust on his face like the poor girl outside is not his fucking side piece. “No Sir Karen and I do not have any contact.” “I’m really confuse now. She said we should get ready for a wedding and that it would be good if my son in law is part of my business.” “I’m very sorry to tell you Sir, but there is no wedding in sight for me and Karen not in a thousand years.” “What does that mean?” I was already putting my foot in my mouth why not go out with a bang? I thought to myself. “Well Sir your daughter is delusional.” “What? Who gives you the right to speak about my daughter in that way?” “Me because I’m on the receiving end of her delusion. She can’t except the fact that I’m with another women and that that woman is the mother of my child.” “So, you lead her on?” “NO off course not, it’s a very difficult situation. But can we speak about business?” “I’ve phoned your company because you and my daughter are going to get married, if you are not, I don’t want you near my company.” “Well then sir it was nice to meet you.” He actually looked at me and said “Go fuck yourself.” Turned his back on me and walked out of his own fucking office. Okay now I see where she get’s her charming personality from. I should have probable told him I only used her for a fuck. I walked straight to the lift.
There was another man waiting for the lift, I could see him eyeing me but he didn’t say a word. And I was way to fed up with Malonie Inc. to even fucking care. The lift arrived and both of us got in. The other man was standing at the control panel and was pressing the button for the lifts to closed. When the lift closed eventually, he looked at me. “You are Nicolas Brown, right?” “I am.” “I’m Dickson the COO of the company.” “Oh, nice to meet you.” I said although that was the last thing I wanted to say. “Is it really?” I looked at him and decided not to lie “No not after the meeting with you boss.” “His an ass right don’t worry, his that way with everyone.” “It’s not that.” “Oh” he said looking up at the ceiling of the lift. When he looked at me again, he said “I take it your Karen’s latest victim?” That caught me off guard. “MMMMMM Yes.” “I know exactly what you are going through, she had this thing for me to. The more I told her I was happily married and we just fucked one night because my wife and I went through a difficult time. The more she came on to me. She even had her dad give me a raise and a new title. Needless to say, when her dad found out I was not seeing Karen he wanted to fire me but the news was already in the papers about me being the new COO which was one good thing Karen did for me, she leak the information to the papers.” “What happened?” “Well, he couldn’t fire me anymore and payroll already had my new salary loaded and the biggest thing is he already told me the truth about the business.” “Which is?” I asked because fuck I was curious. “Can’t tell you that, what I can tell you is, she loses interest quickly when she get’s her hooks into someone else she will forget about you and go on with her life.” “That’s all good but how long is it going to take to get her hooks into someone else?” “For me it was a year. It was a year of hell.” The lifts open and Dickson stopped talking. “Can I take you out for coffee? I really need to know what to do?” “Yes, there’s a Starbucks around the corner I don’t want security to see us walk together; they will call William. You go and I’ll meet you there.” “Okay.” I gave my visitors sticker back to them and walked to the Starbucks that was literally just around the corner.
While I waited for Dickson to come, I ordered two flat whites, hopefully he will drink it. Dickson arrived about 10 minutes after me; I was sitting in the back of Starbucks. When he walked in, I stood up, in order for him to see me. He walked straight to me. “I don’t have long.” He said looking over his shoulder. “Are you expecting someone?” I asked him, he looked very nervous. “Just making sure security didn’t follow me.” “It sounds like you work in a prison.” I said half smiling. “Almost.” “I got you a flat white.” “Thank you.” He took a sip of his coffee, then he looked at me. “I want to apologize.” “For what?” “For sending her your way.” “What do you mean?” “I looked for someone else she could sink her teeth into and you where an easy target, she was a model and the fact that you only date models made it easy.” I wanted to scream at him but I understood. “So, you telling me I should get someone else for her to fixate on?” “Yes, if you can.” “I think I can make that work in fact I already have a candidate.” “Well then, I suggest you set it in action as soon as possible she almost wrecked my marriage. And the thing is I told my wife I slept with her, so it wasn’t even about that it was about her constant showing up at the office, or showing up at places we were at, it’s like she stalks you when she wants you.” “I’ve notice.” “Then really get the ball rolling.” He got up “I need to go someone will be looking for me.” “Can I ask you one more question?” “Yes, I’ll answer if I can.” “Is William busy with illegal stuff?” He just looked at me and the lack of an answer was all the answer I needed. “Bye Nicolas.”
