THE CEO AND ME!-Chapter 38 - NO BUSINESS WITH A SCUMBAG!!!
I had lost the track of the course of the meeting long ago.
My mind could only think about what Tinsley Rutherford had been doing all day??
Was she thinking about me just like I was thinking about her??
It was crazy yet fascinating how in short period, I was attached to this woman whom I had known only for a little while now.
Just like she described about our bond in the past which I yet had no idea or memory about, I could feel it like we indeed dis share something unusual.
"I will go and fetch the files for the next conference."
Madison said, tugging my attention back to the present world. I nodded at her, giving her the way to go and fetch it.
"With whom do we have the next meeting?"
I asked before she could open the glass door to exit. It had slipped out of my mind to who it might have been the next meeting was with.
"Josh Herrington, Mr Wilson, for the collaboration of Herrington Oil and Wilson Oil."
Madison's answer only made me conscious. It got me in thinking about what had happened to Tinsley right away.
'Josh Herrington' 𝐟𝓇𝒆𝐞w𝐞𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝐞𝒍. c𝐨𝒎
The name rang in my mind in repeated motion and Tinsley's face, battered and shattered came to my view weeks ago.
That night when Madison collided with her and after that her committing suicide in the pool, almost killing herself, made Kian feel a shiver down his spine.
He did not ever want to see or encounter any event like that relating to Tinsley anyway.
And the reason behind all of these, the man who was responsible for all of the hardships that the poor girl had to go through was visiting him in a few minutes.
How possibly could he sit still and discuss with that exact man and knock his face down at the same time??
Kian thought. All he wanted at that moment was to punch Josh Herrington until he was breathless and covered with bloody bruises all over his fucking body.
He had seen the purple blue marks on her skin...on the face, abdomen and thighs.
Although it had healed by now but still she would hiss in pain whenever unknowingly his hands would make contact on those areas of her body and it pained him to see her go all through that when she had just lost her parents and it had not been a month either.
A time came when he thought of calling the meeting off to humiliate that sick bastard who drew fun from inflicting pain upon the weak to prove themselves stronger.
But then it would make him look unprofessional in the business arena so he decided against it.
So he took a deep breath trying to calm his mind down. He knew how to deal with that bastard. He just needed to be patient and resist the strong urge of beating the shit out of him for hurting Tinsley in all the possible ways.
Sooner later, the meeting began with Josh Herrington entering through the glass door.
Kian avoided any eye contact with him as he would not be able to control himself from throwing that bastard out of the fifty storey building right through the glass wall, breaking through it.
And the meeting began right after. Madison could sense the discomfort in her boss's composure.
She sure did know the reason behind it and she would not interfere with any of the reckless decision he would make in the end as she did earlier, because she could bet it was worth it.
"So what do you say, Mr Wilson, we seal the deal for the final time?"
One of the stockholders of Wilson Inc proposed which made Josh look back at the owner of the partnership company who was avoiding his gaze throughout the meeting.
Kian did not reply to that question and continued to stare straight, unmoving and Madison did not bother to make him speak up either.
"So do we have a deal, Mr Wilson?"
It was Josh this time, who dropped the question after a few minutes more of discussion.
Everyone in the round table conference waited for Kian to speak up, expecting a positive nod after all the profits the partnership would earn doing business together.
"The deal is off. "
Kian's response was clear and lucid making everyone look back at him with shock and astonishment. Josh lost the smile on his face. It would cost him millions if he could not secure this deal with the Wilsons.
"But..but why??"
"You don't get to counter-question my decision, Mr Harrington. I make my own decisions for the company which is rightfully mine. I own more than half of the stock of this company so anyone who has a problem with my final verdict regarding the deal can sign their stock to me...Madison will get the papers ready. Sure you can do that? Don't you Madi?"
Kian looked at his assistant who was sitting all this while, not once trying to interrupt him from rethinking his decision as she would do usually.
"Yeah..yeah right away, Mr Wilson."
She said, standing up, trying very hard to control that witty smile from forming on her face by watching the horrified faces of all the suit-clad bodies in the confernce hall.
"Good then. The meeting is adjourned for today."
That was what Kian said before finally standing up to get out there as he really needed to get out before he did something wrong. He was hardly controlling himself.
"But what in regards do you not wish to sign the deal??"
Josh pressed the matter when Kian was just about to cross the threshold of the door, making him stop straight away.
Both of his palms formed a first, resting on either side and turned around to shut that asshole's mouth for once and for all.
"Because I don't do business with a scumbag."
That was all everyone heard before Kian stormed out of the conference hall. Madison was tired of holding back her laughter and it did not take seconds for her to laugh out loud, making everyone look at her.
