Wildest Dreams
Ricky gulped down his second cup of coffee for the night, the bitterness of the strong black coffee making him clench his teeth. It was just as he had requested for it; black, strong. Yet he felt like calling the staff to ask for a change. But it was exactly what he needed at the moment after being awake for a long long time.
It was either that or he would sleep all the way to the U.S. without taking care of the urgent issues which awaited him.
He checked the time by his watch, wondering why his assistant was delaying with his luggage.
Not that he couldn't travel without his bags anyway considering that he could simply buy everything he needed when he got home, but there were documents he needed to sign as well before leaving.
Documents like placing a ban on the P.I. in every country of the world for daring to cross him. He would ensure that although the man could live his life however he wanted without being arrested by the police, he would never be
DramaQueenYes, I did have Taylor Swift's Wildest Dreams in mind while naming this chapter. It coincidentally flashed into my memory after I had written some lines.

When the Bosses Meet Cheers...to the Future
She made his emotions a huddle of cacophony, pushing him into that state of euphoria and ecstatic madness and hunger. It was a kiss that expressed the feeling of raw desire which was mutual between them; unquenching thirst for each other driving them both, leading the way, making them mere passengers in the ride to Nirvana. He cuddled her neck, kissing her lips like the drink he had wanted, needed to be alive for a long time. He had missed her, and so had she, and they told this to one another without uttering a word. Their lips were the words, their touches every proof each needed to know how the other felt about them. It was he who broke the kiss, having been reminded by the medicine he inhaled on her neck that she was convalescing. He fought hard not to remember her fall, that traumatising memory being replaced by the reality of her finally being in his arms. He wasn't panting for breath, but his chest was heaving up and down, his pupils dilated wi
When the Bosses Meet Mr. Ricky
"How important is this deal to our corporation? Why can't you stop being inflexible and let go of it?" Ricky Mears asked the board of directors, checking the time by his watch and tapping his fingers on the table impatiently. The meeting was supposed to be over already, and he had a lot on his schedule. His personal assistant was already signalling him that his next appointment was in less than five minutes. "The Raymonds company is becoming serious competition, sir. With the situation right now, if we do not partner with them in this deal, we might lose many investors and shareholders. They are beginning to ask questions, losing their trust in us." One of the board directors said, his look pensive. The shareholders who sat opposite the board directors all had their eyes on the new CEO. They had all been used to his father, Joseph Mears who was kind hearted and considerate, unlike his son who hadn't completed his five months in the company but had succeeded in firing half of the emp
When the Bosses Meet J.K. Raymonds is a Lady?
Ricky Mears stepped into the hallway which had the signpost "private" on it. Just as he was midway into the hallway, two security officers in uniform walked past him, their eyes cast downwards. They didn't even notice that a trespasser was walking in the private hallway, and walked past him without a question. He shrugged, knowing that whatever that had saddened them wasn't his business. Straightening his suit, Ricky pushed open the door where a young lady sat with a phone in hand. She dressed professionally in a black suit and took down notes. Her face a description of seriousness. Noticing his presence, she mouthed "I will speak to you later" and stood, offering him a polite smile. "Good morning, sir. Do you have an appointment with the CEO?" She asked. The smile on her face appeared practiced, like a soothing balm offered to irritating clients. Ricky wondered if she had read the impatient expression in his eyes, and again felt impressed inwardly at the good selection of the empl
When the Bosses Meet The Negotiation
Ricky stared at her, ignoring the hand she extended. For all he knew she would be twenty two! Wasn't she supposed to be a college student or anything other than what she had come to mean to his company; a terror? How had she managed to pull the stunt that had kept him awake at night thinking about? He felt ashamed for grovelling all those while to personally write and send those mails to her. For all he knew, J. K. Raymonds was only a woman, regardless of the business look she had, and he was going to get her to partner with his corporation, using everything possible. Everything... * * * "So, what is it you want exactly, Mr. Mears?" Jade asked as soon as she strode with the confidence of a peacock into her office, where Ricky had been directed to wait till she was through with her meetings. Now, amusement made her twitch her lips as she watched his fingers twitch in anger and obvious impatience. The wine he had been offered was left untouched, his stubborn jaw set in annoyance.
When the Bosses Meet Potential Partner?
"What do you mean you have a condition before investing in our business?" The chairman of the board of directors asked, a frown marring his forehead in form of folded flesh that came together to form a wrinkle. At the head of the U-shaped table Ricky sat, with Ginger beside him taking notes and wondering just when the meeting would end. She thought they had gone through this before, meeting the terms and conditions of their foreign investors. The meeting was supposed to consist of shaking hands and signing documents. But now, disappointment had her sighing beneath her breath at the way they were slyly stalling. "We got a report that your company has been losing deals of late. Or isn't that true?" The cranky looking old man in loose slacks and jacket so large Ginger thought it was hand me down asked, adjusting his tie. Ginger wondered exactly what he was adjusting. The tie had been undone even before he came in with the two other younger men. Ricky heaved a sigh then, wonderin
When the Bosses Meet Office Relationships
"Miss Raymonds, you have a call on line two." Annabelle, Jade's secretary and executive assistant informed her over the intercom, shuffling of papers sounding in the background. "From?" Jade asked, tapping her platinum black pen on the desk and searching for files with the other hand, the telephone was cradled between her ear and shoulders. "Mr. Freeman." He was a potential investor who always found a way of making his demands and terms sly. She didn't intend to deal with him first thing in the morning. "Hold the call, and put him through line three in ten minutes. I'm trying to contact Chloe here." She dialled again, wondering why she couldn't get through to her younger sister. Had Chloe Raymonds blocked her number? No way. She hit the dial button again, waiting. "Okay ma'am" Annabelle replied, and disconnected the intercom to do as she asked. Jade dropped the pen on the table in frustration, wondering where she had dropped the document she had been looking for since morning
When the Bosses Meet Declining on her Terms
"Alright, thank you Mr. Freeman, bye." Jade dropped the receiver, reclining back in the executive seat to stare at the most recent picture in her office with pride, a gigantic portrait of her in a business suit. Who would have thought she could achieve this within three years? She wondered, closing her eyes to inhale breaths of satisfaction. When she had decided to take over the company from the claws of her father whose existence she didn't even want to think about, started working as a model to generate funds while working as a secretary, she hadn't imagined that she would soar this high. The call had gone well, and if Mr. Freeman didn't change his mind again, she would be embarking on another huge project soon with the money she would generate from him. Recalling how far she had come in the business world while maintaining anonymity from the press and the previous day's events involving a certain young man, she chuckled quietly. The look of astonishment on Ricky's face at the r
When the Bosses Meet Unprincipled Ms. Raymonds?
The infuriating woman was running late. Ricky checked the time again by his watch, tapping his fingers on the glass table as he wondered how the investors would react the moment they arrived and realised that Jade wasn't present after all. And for Pete's sake, could the members of the board stop infuriating him further with their endless questions? "Why isn't she here already?" "You 're sure she's still coming?" "Can't you contact her office?" "Are you sure the intern you sent did his job right?" There went the complaints from the members of board, ten minutes to the time stipulated for the arrival of the investors without Ms. Raymonds either making herself present for the meeting or sending a message ahead. Their tone held disapproval, and he knew they were disappointed at him for handing the project over to an intern. Although he pretended as though he didn't care, sipping at his glass of water and scrolling through his phone without saying a word, he did regret not g
