Chapter 176 - Glittery Excitement... (1/2)
Next morning was as usual busy for everyone. People were rushing to their job in the bustling city. All were having their work without getting any idea of the upcoming news which would flow their hairs off their brains..
Reuben arrived at the Smith Enterprise after dropping Veronica at Creation.. Entering his office cabin, the first thing he did was to call for his assistant, Tom.
”Sir you called me?” Tom asked as soon as he walked in the huge cabin of Reuben's office..
When Tom entered, he saw his Boss was being occupied in his own thoughts looking out of the big glass window and a serious expression was looming up on his face..
So his mind internally gave an automatic signal to his brain that something big was going to happen soon which certainly he had no idea about..
”Tom, make my schedule free after lunch hour. I will not attend any meeting anymore and directly work from my office in the late afternoon.
Just give me some files that I've to check or sign immediately as I have no mood of attending any meeting to listen to those stupid clients who can't even prepare a presentation properly. So either prepone the meetings before lunch or cancel it.” Reuben said.
Tom agreed with him in a second and said, ”Sure Boss. I'll come back after half an hour with your coffee and also inform you if the meetings got preponed or cancelled.”
Reuben nodded his head and dialled Veronica's number after Tom left his office room..
”Hey babe. Are you ready for the biggest revelation?” Reuben asked as soon as Veronica picked up.
”Yes, definitely... Willa and Louis are already with me. I'm now going to call Lucy and you call Neil and Henry.” Veronica said looking at her two friends who were looking at her in confusion.
Seeing them, Veronica couldn't help but laugh a little as she remembered, from the time they entered the office on the top floor which was specially for the CEO, they kept looking at her with detective like eyes as if she attempted a big crime...
Ignoring their intense gazes, Veronica called Lucinda whereas Reuben added Neil and Henry in a conference call..
”Heyyo Niccy.” Lucinda greeted as soon as she picked up the phone call.
”Babe.. Are you with Vero?” Henry's voice bloomed in when he heard Lucinda.
”No idiot. It's a conference call. Reuben and Lucinda are also with me.” Veronica informed.
Neil who just got added in the call asked, ”What is happening guys? Why is the sudden need of a conference call? Is there anything important?”
”Yes bro. It's more important than anything.” Reuben replied.
Willa now got impatient after waiting for almost 15 minutes and enquired, ”Guys if you are done with making us wait, then please proceed with your big news and tell us what you want to say without beating around the bush.”
Louis also agreed with him and said, ”Yes. Just tell it nah.. You guys are trying to give me an anxiety attack as you kept me waiting here for so long.”
”Okay guys... So we have a good news to share with you. We couldn't do it yesterday because of the crucial circ.u.mstances.” Veronica said making everyone more excited.
