Back To The Multi-Millionaira List

TERRA'S POV:

FIVE MONTHS AFTER BIRTHING HER TWINS:

“Are you okay Miss Catherine?” 

Such a lovely question! Am I okay? Of course I'm okay, but I'm freaking tired! The kids have been keeping me up all night while Eleanor was an angel most nights, some other night her and Eric must have planned to blow my head up with the loud screaming and crying coming from their nursery.

The only thing keeping me awake right now was the strong coffee I had stopped for on my way here. 

“I'm fine. So what's the latest update?” I questioned my new assistant, Fiona. I had hired her as I needed to start running my late grandfather's company. After his passing, one of the members of the board, Mr Jackson, who had been like an uncle to me while growing up, became the new interim CEO. 

I was back and ready to run it so My Grandfather's company would become the most popular, huge, successful manufacturing  company in the whole country and world at large. I have always been a member of the company and I had been receiving my dividend all while and I could live on that but I'd be so mad at myself if the company goes down.

“There has been an uproar at the main branch at Aethel.” My heart skipped a beat at the mention of the country I had just come from. I exhaled then continued listening to her.

“Due to the new release of the toys. It has been argued that the release is contrary to the one to which eighty percent of members agreed to.” I sighed and rolled my eyes at the information provided. 

I suddenly remembered growing up, I had so many toys because my Grandparents started the manufacturing of toys and kids of all over various States in Aethel were in love with it. My grandfather had shown me how to produce, discussed with me on how to discover what the kids liked, the basics and I had read so much about it. Now, I had the power to discover what could be the next selling out product. And my kids, just like me, would have just as many toys as well getting the chance to try a new product and give feedback which will help expeditiously. 

“What's wrong with this particular toy?” I questioned while bringing out my phone from my bag.

“I truly have no idea but I brought one with me.” Fiona responded by placing the box of a toy on my table.

I checked my phone waiting for an update from my kid's nanny as I felt extremely worried and uncomfortable leaving my babies with the staff. I promised I won't stay out too long, as it was currently noon. Now I had requested an hourly update but I guess it was too early to get one since it had just been thirty five minutes.

I collected it and gazed at the packaging, it was in a brown and yellow box and I felt every toy box needed to be in a very attractive box because that's what draws kids attention.

“So what exactly does it do?” I asked, looking around the brown captain action figure and I couldn't even find a switch or anything. Fiona chuckled, making me look up at her and she covered her mouth.

“It's just a figure kids can play with.” She explained and my mouth went into an ‘Oh’ and I laughed at myself.

“I mean it's okay.” I stated and she gave me a look.

“It is but contrary to the other idea that the toy would be able to speak, the soldier would come with guns, change of outfit. Like there's a whole package for the toy contrary to this.” I listened and wondered why they did this instead.

“I will have a meeting with them and also set up a meeting with the executives and branch head here tomorrow. Also, forward the document for the ideas and discover why this was produced instead. Is it about the cost? A mistake? Find out and inform me before the meeting tomorrow.” She nodded, taking notes and I leaned back in my seat deciding if there was anything else but nothing came to mind.

“Any other thing I need to know. Forward it to me.” I spoke and she nodded.

“Alright ma'am.” I stood up to leave but I felt the urge to pee.

“I have to use the bathroom, I will be right back.” I spoke then quickly rushed to the bathroom in this huge cafe. I had still been figuring my way around town but from what I had seen, I had made a great decision coming here. It was refreshing getting a change of scenery. 

I entered one of the bathroom stalls and did my business. I heard some other women burst into the other bathroom stall giggling and discussing.

“Girl, I want a billionaire. A millionaire is not for me because last night I spent my time going through the latest billionaire list and get this, about ninety percent are old men.” One spoke.

“So what? You're going to date and have sex with a billionaire whose large stomach is as big as his small guy down there.” They both laughed and I was done already so I wore my pants still feeling pains in my stomach due to the birth of my twins.

“Please…I eventually found a young multimillionaire who just got divorced. Girl, when I say he is handsome, I mean it. He is extremely gorgeous, his wife is dumb for leaving him.” I walked out of the stall and they glanced at me and smiled as a greeting and I smiled right back at them but it didn't stop them from conversing.

“Oh, yeah? What's his name so I can check on him.” Her friend asked.

“I think it was something Anderson…don't laugh that I don't know his name, he doesn't even live here, I'm going to change my location because of him.” They laughed while my heart dropped at the surname mentioned. They finished retouching their make up then left.

I stopped washing my hands and my heart raced for some reason. The information that we were divorced was public now? I'm certain he and his mother are delighted, I bet he was also excited to be back on the single multi-millionaire list.
