151 Interup (1/2)
Mrs. Cloud's secretary turned around and relayed a few words to the bodyguards before the two bodyguards turned around and headed into the elevator with the girl in their hand. She turned back to Mrs. Cloud after she was done and started to relay on her.
”Mrs. Cloud, we've just about lost the minutes left until our preferred time of leaving,” The secretary alerted Mrs. Cloud.
”Ah.. really…” Mrs. Cloud muttered as she began to walk down the hall, her secretary and the remaining bodyguards following closely, We can't afford to be late once again. We missed nearly the entire meeting yesterday and now have to use this one as makeup for yesterday.”
The secretary nodded her head. ”Yes ma'am, the company we were supposed to have the meeting with yesterday luckily had enough time to make with us this afternoon, I'm not sure they'll have that same amount of time today…”
Mrs. Cloud's steps quickened. ”They'll have the same time tomorrow and the time after that if we're late again. There's nothing they can do about it really. They may be a small company that started to gain recognition and the funds to expand, but in the end, they are still just a small company. There's nothing they can do against us.”
The secretary simply nodded her head, not wanted to speak up against Mrs. Cloud.
”That said, we do need to hurry and be on time to be role models, don't we?” Mrs. Cloud smiled.
Shivers ran down the secretary's spine as she watched the smile. How could someone so beautiful, with such a captivating smile to match, be such a cruel person at the same time?
”Don't stare too much, you'll wear a hole into my back,” Mrs. Cloud sighed.
The secretary immediately lowered her head, unaware of the fact that Ms. Cloud knew she was watching the entire time. ”Sorry, ma'am.”
Mrs. Cloud smiled, her smile melting away at the same speed as it appeared on her face. She had bigger things to be on her mind. The meeting she had with Vixen had been something she was planning for the longest time. She didn't feel the slightest bit satisfied after it.
Afterall, she hadn't touched all the points she wanted to touch on it.
Vixen, her son and one of the three motivations she has to be doing this business and to stay with his father, was starting to get out of hand. She couldn't let that happen, not in his critical time.
Would he have done the same thing that she did on a regular basis? She wanted to know. Would he be able to ruin the woman she ruined without prompt? Would he be able to hold his ground against someone who was breaking the rules of this hell in order to reach out for something they didn't even deserve as she did?
She didn't know, he wasn't showing anything that would help her know.
There was no way for her to trust her entire company in his hands if he was unable to keep it under control. That was how she thought. That was how she would always think.
She walked down the hallway to the same exit that she had taken the day before. Her guards were close behind her and her secretary as Mrs. Cloud opened the large door to the outside of the asylum.
She stepped out first onto the gravel with her secretary as a close second and the bodyguards spread out as they walked out of the door, making sure their eyes were on the exit in case any other maze runners decided to pop out of nowhere.
There were none.
Mrs. Cloud smiled. 'Of course, there would be none,' she thought to herself, 'the first floor should be well aware now.'
Mrs. Cloud took a deep breath of the clean fresh air and looked up to the sky. It was bright, shining with a bright sky blue hue with white fluffy clouds dotting the midday sky. The sounds of shuffling of feet filled her ears along with the screams of delight and chitter-chatter of conversations.
It was the sound of lunchtime for the most part.
