At the Be Group, President Be was in his office with his Executive Secretary, Henry Gibbs. He looked at him and said, “Please arrange the meeting with the Construction Director and the Team Leaders.
Henry Gibbs replied, “President, I called Director Evans this morning to invite him to the meeting. He told me that they were not avable. The Martins Group had given the Construction workers one-month vacation leave until the end of February.”
President Be was fuming with anger and said, “Give me Director Evans’ phone number, I will call him myself. Who does he think he is?”
Henry Gibbs gave his boss Director Evans’ phone number then he walked out of his boss’ office. President Be immediately called Director Evans’ phone number.
When it was connected, he said, “Hello Director Evans, you are speaking to President Be. Please cancel your vacation leave with immediate effect. I want to see you at the Construction site at 1 pm.
If I don’t see you at the Construction site, I will fire you.” President Be didn’t give Director Evans a chance to respond then he mmed the phone down.
Director Evans was not angry; heughed out loud and ignored President Be’s words. After the meeting with CEO Martins, he took his beloved wife to His Goodness Resort just to rx.
Yesterday, he drove back to Durban to attend the meeting, but he was told that the meeting was postponed. He spent four hours on the road for nothing. What about his petrol and the time he wasted on the road?
He took his phone and dialed his best friend’s number. When it was connected, he said, “Jordan will never marry my God granddaughter, I will stop the wedding.”
Augustughed out loud and asked, “What happened, my friend?” Paul told August about the call he just received from Jordan.
August was dumbfounded and replied, “Just ignore him. Who gave him the confidence to order you around? He overestimated himself. Does he think he has the authority to fire you? Enjoy your time with your beautiful wife.”
At 12:30, President Be and Henry Gibbs went to the Construction site to attend the meeting but there was no one. President Be was fuming with anger, he took his phone and dialed Mr Duma’s number.
When it was connected, he said, “Hello Mr Duma, we are at the Construction site but there is no one. I gave Director Evans an instruction to meet me here, but he is not here. How can I work with someone who does not respect me?”
Mr Duma was shocked to hear President Be’s words and replied, “Let me correct you, President Be. Firstly, Director Evans is your elder. Secondly, he doesn’t take instructions from you but from CEO Martins.
Thirdly, you need him to help you establish yourpany and also to train your new employees. Why don’t you hire and train your employees and forget about the Martins Group skilled workers?
Director Evans was on holiday outside Durban, but he came back because he wanted to help you. Who canceled the meeting at thest minute? He wasted his petrol and time on the road.Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
You don’t have to work with him if you don’t want to, no one is forcing you. Stop acting like a spoilt brat. You will see him on the 1st of March.
Use this time to familiarize yourself with thepany. Also, hire your Construction workers during this time. Lastly, respect is earned not forced.” Then he hung up the phone.
President Be was fuming with anger; how could a merewyer speak to him like that? He was CEO Martins’ future son-inw and he demanded respect.
He dialed Avery’s number, he wanted to vent his anger and said, “Baby, I hate Director Evans, he is full of himself. He refused to attend the meeting after I instructed him toe. I am furious; I will ask your father to fire him.”
Avery was so shocked she couldn’te back to her senses for a long time. Jordan wanted to fire the most important person in her life, was he insane? Even his father would never fire her God grandfather. Who gave Jordan the confidence to order her God grandfather around?
Avery took a deep breath to calm herself down and replied, “Jordan, I am disappointed in you. I told you before that Director Evans is my God grandfather. It is clear to me that you were not listening.
Also, who gave you the confidence to order my God grandfather around? Who do you think you are? Didn’t you tell me yesterday that you were rushing to the meeting?
Which meeting were you talking about? Jordan Be, I hate dishonesty the most.” Then she hung up the phone.
Jordan was over-excited after Avery bought him a car. He forgot that he lied to Avery by indicating that he was going to attend the meeting with Director Evans and his team.
He vowed in his heart that as soon as Avery handed him the property keys, he would just ignore her. He went back to his car and drove to thepany; he was meeting the HR Manager who was headhunted by Henry Gibbs at 3 pm.
At 3 pm, Secretary Gibbs ushered a young beautifuldy to the President’s office. He looked at his boss and said, “President Be, this is Cordelia Townsend, I will leave her with you.”
President Be smiled and shook Miss Townsend’s hand and said, “Thank you for meeting me. I have seen your resume, and I was impressed, the job is yours.”
Miss Townsend smiled brightly and replied, “Thank you, President Be, for hiring me. Are there any positions that you want to advertise immediately?”
President Be looked at Miss Townsend and replied, “Please advertise two hundred Construction workers positions for now. The Martins Group will help us to train them. For other positions that need to be filled, I will leave them to you.”
Miss Townsend nodded her head and replied, “I will give you the Construction workers job description for you to approve tomorrow morning. I will advertise these positions in the local newspapers.”
Miss Townsend thanked President Be again then she went to find Henry Gibbs. She thanked him for rmending her to President Be then she told him about the two hundred Construction workers to be advertised the following day.
Henry took her to her office; it was her previous office. Then they went to the Finance Manager, Sean Swan’s office to greet him. He was over the moon when he saw Miss Townsend and said, “Wee back, my dearest Cordelia.” Then he kissed her on both cheeks.
Cordelia giggled and replied, “I am so happy to work with you again, Uncle Sean. I will officially start work tomorrow morning.
President Be asked me to advertise two hundred Construction workers. I will prepare the paperwork tomorrow morning then you will tell me if you need an assistant.” She hugged them then she left.
