Chapter 105 - The Boss is not me but your girlfriend... (2/2)
”I'm damn sure, Vero will kill me when I'll arrive at the office from here.” Willa said between her laughter.
Lucinda wiped a tear that escaped from her eyes from laughing too hard and said, ”She sure will do that.”
In the meantime, their coffee had reached with a caramel cake for both of them as they busied themselves in eating and savouring the smoothening taste of the cake while sipping the hot milk coffee.
”Woah.. seems like I came in a wrong time.” A male voice suddenly came into their ear making them look at the door.

Louis was busy in a meeting with his assistant when his phone rang. He dismissed his assistant from his office and picked the call up.
”From which side, the sun rose today that the cousin of mine is suddenly calling me?” Louis said in an over exaggerating tone.
”Stop your nonsense and listen to me why I called quietly.” Reuben said from the other side of the call.
Louis rolled his eyes and said, ”Okay Boss. Tell me what you want to say.”
Without any hesitation, Reuben started telling his intention for calling his little cousin, ”The Brown Corporation and Smith Enterprise are having a collaboration soon. That's why the assistant of Alonzo Brown had called you few days ago for an appointment for the 2d and 3d model of our hotel project. So I want my baby to handle this project. Do you understand?”
”What? You are telling me to make Veronica the head of this project? You know that she handles the VFX projects, not the animation or graphics ones. And more importantly, you are forgetting that here the Boss is not me but your girlfriend. How can a little vice-president order his CEO?” Louis shrugged off the idea immediately.
Reuben rolled his eyes this time and threatened calmly, ”I don't know how are you gonna do this. But I definitely know that if you don't do this I'll tell Uncle that you are the one who broke his favourite chess piece.”
Louis shivered thinking about the aftermath if his father came to know about the truth as he said, ”Okay fine. I'll see what can I do.”
Pleased with the answer, Reuben cut the call. But before it, he warned him, ”Don't you dare say anything about the call to Ica. Otherwise you know what can I do, right?”
”Such an evil brother.” Louis muttered after cutting the call.

Louis Morgan was the little cousin brother of Reuben Smith. He was the son of Reuben's uncle from his mother's side. And Reuben was the one who helped him to fulfill his dream to make a career in multimedia. Reuben along with Louis's elder brother made his parents agree with his path of career so that they wouldn't pressure him to join the family business.
Though Reuben and Louis fought with each other most of the time, but they loved each other dearly. Louis was even more close with Reuben than his own brother. And Reuben also treated him as his own little brother and doted on him as he was also the only child of his parents.
Anyone could call them the best cousins of all time...
