"Hey!"
Chelsie stopped to chuckle.
Did he just address her informally? Who does he think he is?
Chelsie replaced her distaste with a beautiful smile.
"Yes? You called" she said innocently.
"How old are you?" The youngest son of the Dewner family ; Sam asked as though taunting her.
Chelsie retained her poliet smile.
"I am going to be twenty two by next month" Chelsie offered with mischief in her eyes as she returned back to her seat.
Sam waved his hand disapprovingly.
"You're older than i am. I can't handle that" Sam said as he stepped out of his office chair to sit opposite Chelsie.
She had accompained her immediate elder brother ; Miles to the office.
Her brother left for the board room where he had a meeting to attend.
Here she was, stuck with a wannabe claiming to own her brother's office.
" Oh.how old are you if i may ask?" Chelsie asked as though intrested in whatever crap he had to say.
"I am twenty one. You know, it is really difficult to become so sucessful at such a young age.At nineteen i already knew all i needed to know about running a company"Sam said smiling
"Woah. At such a young age? I am so envious" Chelsie said with so much sincerity.
Sam laughed at this remark
"Well, it's nothing .A great responsibility comes with awareness of one's roles. So it's nothing" Sam said
What a joke. Her brother was already running the company at 17.
Chelsie stared at the man seated opposite her with pretended interest.
"This is not the only company i run. I run a few others too. And they are doing great under my control" Sam said .
There was one thing she learnt from this man for the past twenty mintues she's been seated here.
He LOVES ladies.
He wouldn't stop running his mouth since she stepped into the office.
"Woah. I came to the right person then" Chelsie said with delight.
Sam nodded.
"By the way, why did you want to meet the CEO?" He asked.
Chelsie had walked into the office to wait for her brother to finish his meeting ,when she found....Sam in the office playing CEO.
"I thought you were the CEO?" She asked, amused.
"Of course i am" Sam cleared his throat.
"I was wondering if i could partner with your company for the next season. You see our company works per season and in current need for help and funds for the coming season. We are hoping to sell the current shares to your company at a very reasonable price and i know you won't regret it" Chelsie said with all seriousness.
Sam nodded as though doing some thinking.
Of course he didn't understand a word she just said. She could guess his position in the company by his level of understanding.
"I'll need to talk to the finance person of the company and weigh our chances" Sam offered.
Not bad
Chelsie thought.
"What would you like to have for lunch? I'll get one of the staffs to get you something or we could eat out. " Sam said smiling at Chelsie
She wanted to burst his bubble so much at this point but decided against it.
"No, I'm fine thank you" she replied with a poliet smile.
"Come on, don't be shy"
Maybe she should have walked when she had the chance. She hated awkward situations and sure had a lot of problems with wannabes.
"It's fine really " she said again.
"What's going on here?" Miles voice was unmistakable. Thick ,deep and intimidating voice and physic too.
Chelsie smiled as Miles approached the table anger in his eyes on seeing his telecom in Sam's hands.
"He was about to get me lunch Miles , it's not a big deal" Chelsie replied.
Sam's eyes travelled from Chelsie to Miles in shock.
Did she address him informally? Not even that.
By HIS NAME?!
"Are you done?" Miles asked still not convinced that, that was all that happened here.
Sam composed himself and bowed his head polietly.
"Yes sir. I was just leaving" Sam took his leave , darting Chelsie a promising look.
"How was the meeting?" Chelsie asked
"Did he do anything to you?" Miles asked
Chelsie shook her head.
"Why?" She asked.
"That's Sam. Dewner's last son." Miles pulled his coat and placed it on the hanger by the wall.
"I know." Chelsie replied.
"I don't trust him"He added
"You have reason to. I should go see dad." Chelsie stood on her feet holding on to her glasses case
"I know you are not going to see dad" Miles said staring at his laptop screen
"Fine! i don't want to stay with you all day. I'll get bored." Chelsie pouts.
Miles chulked.
"What a refined way to tell me that my life is boring. Thanks little sis"
Chelsie smiled sheepishly.
"I didn't mean it that way" she whined.
"Where will you run off to again? " Miles asked.
"To....."
"Wherever the wind takes you. I know. Just be safe alright" Miles said waving her to leave.
"Thank you" Chelsie gave him a side hug before running off.
Miles chulked. Not only does she look like their mother a whole lot, she had her traits too.
Miles phone rang.
"Yes?"
"Is Chelsie with you?" Jason asked.
"She just left my office why?" Miles was already worried.
"I just wanted to be sure she's alright" Jason pointed out.
The two brothers have been a bit on their toes watching Chelsie. She was their only sister afterall.
