Baldwin I walked into the head office, escorted by over thirty people, most directors in the company.After I gave them separate orders, they all left, all apart from my chief secretary, Michael.He entered my office with me, standing while I sat.“What’s the progress?” I asked carefully.“We have the support of Fiona Dylan, the one in charge of Stamford Fashion.She has agreed to sack the individuals we highlighted and for all of them, we have prepared employment opportunities for them at our company, Mac Fashion as well as EinT,” Michael reported.I smiled, “About EinT… Did the CEO agree to join hands with us fully?”“Not yet but she will,” Michael assured. “Even though EinT has very good designers, they need a lot more which will be provided through emptying out Stamford Fashion.”I began to laugh hysterically. By the time it died down, a determined look appeared on my face.“Then let us start now!” I said firmly.“Fiona will fire the employees tomorrow, all of them will have empl

Bruce“Women should be a course in the university, a six-year course. Don’t you know they are very hard to understand?” Kelvin asked.I sighed, “You have a very twisted view of the world.”“I am a realist,” he said confidently. “And you know I’m telling the truth.”I folded my arms and stared at him,“I believe you have work to do, Kelvin. What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be making relevant calls and…”“Fine, fine,” he interrupted, walking away. I smiled and then went to my office too.About thirty minutes later, Kenzie knocked on my office door, opened it and peeped inside.“It’s time, boss. We’ve got to leave now,” she informed me.I stood up, all ready for the press conference.**The press conference was short and boring. Maybe it’s because I was prepared for all the questions.It was more about promoting the new product so we needed no controversy.Kenzie went ahead to escort me back to the office. She was in the front seat along with the driver.The driver, Williams, had be

Natasha I looked away, butterflies in my stomach. I had to tap my cheeks several times, urging myself to wake up. The little slaps did work but now, I had eyes on me.Abigail ended up looking away and she turned to Bruce.“You will work on it, won’t you?” she asked.“I will… think about it,” Bruce muttered, his eyes never leaving my body.With my eyes, I begged him to stop staring at me but he persisted like he didn’t get the message.“What’s there to think about?” Abigail insisted. "It is normal for a woman from the Stamford family to take over the fashion subsidiary of the company.If Natasha is to have your child, she needs to be more powerful. Tell me, Bruce, what better way is there than to make her a director in one of the subsidiaries?”Bruce seemed lost for words so I interrupted on his behalf.“We are working on something and the current director is useful to our plan. She has to stay in the position,” I replied carefully.“What!” Abigail exclaimed, not having it at all.“I

Baldwin “I have made a list,” Michael gave me the list which had several names checked. I smiled excitedly, satisfied with what I had seen.“Can we win?” I asked him, pushing back the list towards him.“We have a lot of shareholders on our side,” Michael replied.“Stamford’s Group shares at the fashion subsidiary is thirty percent and they have loyal shareholders too. I believe we are still playing this game on a 50-50 basis. If we are being honest, Stamford Group has the higher hand.”I nodded. “Fine, but I also have twenty percent shares there. For the remaining fifty percent shares, your job is to contact them and help us gain a slight edge over Stamford Group,” I told Michael firmly.“I understand that, boss, and believe me, plans are in motion,” Michael replied.“Just as you ordered, I have secretly met the majority of the shareholders. For those who chose not to help us, I have threatened them with their weakness. We will be able to win.”“Good,” I replied happily, smiling from

Natasha It is a new day, my first day of being a director actually. I woke up really early, nervous and anxious. My breakfast was nothing much but I did it with Bruce.When he read business newspapers, I read with him.Maria entered the dining room, giving me a curt bow.“Madam, your secretary is here,” she informed me.I figured the message was for me and turned to Bruce. The latter stared back at me and hey, it took a whole five seconds to realize that the message was directed to me.It dawned on me then; the fact that I now had my own secretary after being a secretary to others my entire life.“Let her in,” I permitted with a smile.Maria walked out and in a minute, Kenzie was inside. She said her ‘good mornings’ to both Bruce and I.“Your car is ready, Director Natasha,” she told me formally.It sounded like she had practised that before saying. I stood up to leave but then stopped and turned back.“I’ll leave first, baby,” I told Bruce. I had to be affectionate with Kenzie in th
