After The Contract Ends, The Ceo Regrets Novels & Stories

she said, taking a deep breath. It was not like I was new to the conversation, so I asked her to remain professional and not let her emotions get the best of her. After wishing her a good day, I returned to my car and drove away. I did not have much time to drive before returning home. I parked my car and handed Grace the keys, as usual. I heard her say, "Wait," behind me. “What's the matter you look pale?” she asked. "I don't even know how to say it; Serene terminated our contract, and now I am on the verge of losing shareholders," I explained.

I do not blame him but I blame the change in the atmosphere. “Okay,” he says, coming to sit beside me. Okay! Hoor, you can do it! “What is it about?” He asks, putting his hand on his knee. My gaze that lingers over his small movements comes back to his face and I know if I look into his eyes, I won't be able to complete myself. So better it is if I just look anywhere but at him. “Zahir, you know that — uh, we both know that the contract is about to expire,” the beginning of it changes his facial expressions as a slight crase comes to rest between his eyebrows.

Now when I think everything is going smoothly with Christian, suddenly this happens. "Soph." I don't like the tone one bit. Is he going to drop another bad news? "I think we should end our contract." "W-what? Why?" I promise I’ll be fine with not seeing you until God-knows-when. We can video-call the way we always do. So why? "I don't know if Covid will be gone by June." Our contract is supposed to end early of June. That's three months away. I don't know what to say. I don't know how to feel on this rejection. He's ending it. Just when I thought we had something. Something worth fighting for.

Following him, I pulled the sliding glass door closed behind me, then pulled the curtains closed to give us more privacy. “My head of neuro just ended his contract with me an hour ago.” He began. Unsure of what this had to do with me, I gave him my sincerest apology. “I am sorry to hear that, Sir.” “I appreciate that. I was wondering if you had any intentions of returning to California or not?” He asked, clearly beating around the bush. Understanding what he was getting at, I decided not to let him know that my contract ended with them last month and it was pending renewal on my return. “That had been my original plan.”

A long silence filled the entire conference room, as they all waited for their CEO to speak even though deep down they were hoping that he wouldn't and just leave quietly because with the deadly look in his eyes they all know that they are all in a big trouble except if a miracle happens to them of course which they are certain it won't be happening anytime soon. "They are all doomed!" "We shouldn't have signed a contract with the company against his will." "How could the devil have used them before they realized it."

CHAPTER 3 SARAH'S POV “Oh, spare me that crap, Sarah! You actually thought I was doing all these for nothing? You must be a dreamer to even think that.” Keila said that to my face. She sounded really mean that I began to regret ever putting all my trust in her. Now, I was starting to look vulnerable. She knew basically everything about me! Just when I thought I had seen it all, something even more shocking happened. Luke shot a furious glare at me.

"Please sit down, Amanda. I have something important to talk to you about." "Yes, sir." Amanda sat on the chair across from CEO Eddie, the man's desk forming a barrier between them. A thick envelope was taken out of the drawer and placed on the desk in front of Amanda. CEO Eddie snorted. "I never thought that a situation like this would happen. Many people will be disappointed with my decision, but all of them are not my wish." "What do you mean, sir?" "Before my voice gets out and people hear it, I wanted to let you know that your contract with this place has ended. I apologize for having to do so, Amanda."

“Tell me, what happened?” He hesitated, searching her face for patience. “Denver. The board called a meeting, and I was just as surprised as he was. I didn’t expect it either. During the meeting, the board gave me rave reviews as acting CEO. Things were going smoothly, and they wanted me to stay in the position until the end of the fiscal quarter. But that’s when the wheels fell off my Ferrari, so to speak, when at the end of the meeting, Denver made me sign a contract—an actual contract—promising to step down as CEO when the fiscal period ends.” Vanessa’s eyes flashed. “He made you sign something? After all you’ve done for that company?”

I shrug, taking a sip of tea, "She seemed very relieved to give all this to me, I confess I felt bad for lying to her” He smiles, those annoying dimples showing. “ Roman," he nods for me to continue, "what's it going to be like now? I mean, you got what you wanted, does that mean I'm out? Since the contract says…” “ No," he says firmly, "Whatever is on your mind, forget it, this isn't over. The idea of it ending like this scared me, only more than the way I was relieved that he had said it.

He urged. I hesitated. “Actually, I was thinking about the contract with Ken.” His brow furrowed. “Is that what’s been bothering you? You’re seriously considering it?” “I don’t know,” I admitted, my voice barely above a whisper. “He came to my office with the final contract yesterday and now I’m second-guessing everything. Maybe working with him was a mistake and maybe I should just let go of the company.” “No.” Noah’s response was firm. “If you don’t take back that company, you’ll never forgive yourself. If you don't forgive yourself, you won’t be happy. And I can’t stand to see you unhappy.”
