The whole room was silent as they turned to Anna. Nancy had a scowl on her face while Michael looked puzzled.“Please go ahead; what might this condition be?” Michael asked.“I would like to get the chance to pick my own team members, permanent members,” Anna stated.“But you already have those who…” Michael said.“I only work with those who I decide are competent enough,” Anna said, cutting him off.“Are you insinuating that we do not know what we are doing? Or that we are incompetent?” Nancy asked, scoffing in anger.“I mean, considering the competence of the team lead, it is only right for me to have my reservations,” Anna responded with a smile of amusement.Nancy’s hand balled into a fist as she stared at Anna with so much contempt.“How do you intend to do that? I mean, choose your own team members,” Michael asked.“I will get back to you on that; for now, I would like to see my workstation,” Anna said, standing up.Michael was taken aback for a few seconds as he realized she ha

Anna smiled at Clayton and Natasha as she asked, “Let’s see who can provide a solution to our need.”“Okay,” Nat muttered, still confused as to what she meant.“We have an investor's bid coming up in two weeks; I need a list of some of the organizations that would be at that bid.” Anna instructed.“Okay, I’ll get right to it,” Nat responded.“No, why would you do that? I’ve got more important things I need you to handle. Instead, have everyone interested in working for me gather here in the next ten minutes,” Anna stated.“Okay,” Nat said as she typed the mail.“Also, let’s not restrict it to just Nancy’s department; anyone who is competent enough within the firm is free to come try,” Anna said, smiling, a mischievous glint in her eyes.Clayton shook his head and muttered under his breath, “Oh god save us.”In ten minutes, they had a total of ten people in the room already, including Evelynn and Felix, who had brought them up earlier.“I see you are all interested in joining my team.

Michael looked up from a set of files he was going through as his secretary walked in.“I didn’t call you Maggie. Is there something you are here to report?” Michael asked.“Hmm, I’m afraid I have some heads of department outside who are here to see you.” Maggie responded.Michael looked puzzled as he glanced at the time, unsure if he had missed an important meeting.“I don’t think I have any meeting called for the day,” Michael stated.“No, you don’t, but I think this has something to do with Ms. Anna,” Maggie explained.“You mean Anna Howard?” Michael asked.“Yes,” Maggie replied, adding, “I could not let them in because I know how you don’t like to be disturbed at this time.”“Hmm, okay, let them in,” Michael replied, closing the file he was working on.As soon as Maggie opened the door, three people walked in, visibly looking angry.“Before you all start to vent, please have a seat; let’s have this in a civilized manner,” Michael said.“I think there needs to be some rules if Ms.

Simon looked at Spenser, his eyes narrowed in suspicion, trying to gauge if he could trust his words.“What do you mean by that?” Simon asked.“It means you need to be more concerned than you currently are,” Spenser replied with a shrug.Simon watched him cut into the steak on his plate, a smug look on his face as he took a bite.“If I am going to make any sense of what you are saying, you’re going to have to say more than that,” Simon replied, taking a sip of wine.Spenser sighed, then replied, “We all know you and the Gary group have been at this fierce war of wanting to be first place in the industry.”“Yes, that’s a wide opinion, but I guess that’s not what you are trying to tell me,” Simon responded.“The Gary group has one of the most amazing and sought-after Vectra in the industry working with them now; that’s a huge competitive gap right there, and you sit there telling me you are not bothered?” Spenser asked on a scoff.“Tell me what the Gary group is doing, Spenser, and save

Gideon’s brow went up in suspicion as Simon’s voice dropped a notch. He was unable to make out his words.“Is everything okay?” Sophia asked from behind again.“Looks like trouble to me; what’s going on?” Gideon asked, his eyes narrowed at Simon.Simon kept listening without saying a word, and after several minutes, he ended the call.“Sophia I’m afraid I need to attend to something; can you go on without me?” Simon asked.“Sure, it’s not a problem. I wouldn’t want to keep you from work, especially since it seems urgent,” Sophia replied, patting his arm.“Okay, I’ll see you around; let me get someone to drive you,” Simon insisted.“Last I checked, I was not invincible, and it looks like you are trying to keep something away from me,” Gideon stated, folding his arm on his chest.Simon turned to him and responded, “It’s best you get on your way, because there is nothing to keep from you, Gideon.”Simon turned and walked back into the building without as much as a glance back.“Shhh, I te
