29 Calm Before the Storm (1/2)
THIRD PERSON's POV
In the Stones Enterprises main office, a woman wearing a red dress was looking through some old papers. She looks worried about some of the details in it. When suddenly a young lady wearing pink jacket and black pants came in.
”Oh! Airis, my daughter, what are you doing here?”
”Well, he didn't come.”
”What do you mean?”
”I called his phone but his secretary answered. He said that Vince had to attend an emergency meeting so he can't fetch me.” The young lady called Airis said while throwing her handbag on top of the table.
”What emergency might that be?! Gray Group is doing so well now under his supervision.”
”I don't know! But mom, are you sure that Vince doesn't have any girlfriend?”
The woman approached Airis and touched her hair and said, ”Of course. My sources said so.”
”But how about Yve? Do you have any news about her?”
Her mom was shocked about her question and asked instead,
”Why would I have any news about her?!!”
”Mom, don't be mad. I just want to make sure that she is following her promise to us.”
”Well, so far, no specific girl was found beside your Vincent. Vincent was actually a very workaholic person. Whenever we see each other, it is always about the business.”
”Don't worry mom. That attitude of his will change soon because you will his mother-in-law.”
”That's my daughter. By the way do you want to come to the shareholders' meeting?”
”Mom, I don't want to talk about business. You know that!”
”Vincent will be here tomorrow. Gray Group is one of the shareholders now. They only holds a small share though.”
”Why didn't you said so in the first place? I'll be coming tomorrow, of course!”

VINCE's POV
While Yve was in the toilet, Edward came back.
”So?”
”Well, I rejected her. Don't worry.”
I tapped his back lightly and said, ”Nice work!”
”But I'm afraid you will see her tomorrow.”
”Why?”
”Stones Enterprises called for a shareholders' meeting tomorrow and knowing how they think. She will be there for sure.”
”What would be the agenda?”
”Choosing the next CEO of the company.”
”WHAT?!?!?!” Yve shouted coming out of the toilet.
”Yvory…”
”Isn't that a good idea?”
”NO!! The time limit stated on my father's will is not yet over. As far as I know, I still have 6 months.”
