Chapter 1 How we met
billionaire's Tale
Chapter One.
The History
Mrs. Bond point of view.
Setting: An expensive boutique owned by Mrs. Bond.
"Patricia, you can shop here today and I will give you 25% off, you know to celebrate our partnership that would be signed soon" I said in excitement.
"Oh Maya, were you not informed?" Patricia laughed in a very odd way, I know my friend, she doesn't act without a reason but for this I didn't understand her.
"What do you mean though?" I had to ask her.
"Your daughter in law, Esther right? Well, she signed the deal yesterday and tomorrow we would discuss all the details, didn't you know about it? Well, you have a daring daughter in law if you don't know about this. I mean it is your company and she does things behind your back well, that is just disrespectful. If it were me, I would put her in her place, she only married your son, nothing special, She should never forget her place" Patricia said as she raised her brow and sounded disappointed me.
But she was right, I have been disrespected and I shouldn't allow that, in anything she should have at least told me and she allowed someone as low as Patricia talk to me in this manner, she will get it from me, I promise her this.
"Oh, she did tell me, we would discuss some matters, I guess it should be this and you know we are friends, so she signed it" I said to cover how embarrassed I felt.
I fumed inside me as I knew I had to meet her immediately.
I called my driver immediately after Patricia.
Author's Point of View.
"Mrs. Bond, we reached out to Jason and Sons corporation for the merger in fashion world and it seems like they will agree to our amount, but there are having doubts" One of the board members said.
"Okay, until they agree with us, don't stop pressing the issue" Mrs. Bond replied.
"Okay, I should brief you guys about the new partnership we have with Jewelries co, we will about to launch it in the next fashion show" Mrs. Bond said as she stood up to the projector.
The board room door suddenly opened in the wildest way, it took everyone by shock.
It could only mean one thing Mrs. Bond is here. The dramatic queen of the company is here. It was rumored that her heels are always specially made and there were made of pure glass, the staff often thought it was just a bad rumor that the staff made up, since she was always tagged as the old witch. No one likes it when she is around.
Her glassy heel sounded so distinct as the board room is so quiet, if I pin dropped everyone would notice.
She walked straight to her daughter in law, she never accepted her, she never loved her or treated her as a human, she often referred her as a mere coincidence, she often said her son could have made better choices than this.
She walked to her daughter in law and slammed the file in her hands, she slammed it on the table the impact was so much that the bottle water placed on the table on fell, some of the board members gasped in fear.
"Who approved this contract?" Who approved this thirty million dollars project?" She asked and the board members all replied "Mrs. Bond did, ma'am"
"OH! It is the doing of my Precious Daughter in law who is so blessed with all my riches and my influence right?" She said and fear gripped Esther immediately
"And who told you, you can do that?" Who told you, you had enough to make decisions in my own company! WHO ON EARTH GAVE YOU THE RIGHT! She yelled and the board members were scared even for Esther.
She sighed as she adjusted her hair and looked Esther straight in her eyes.
"ESTHER! Listen to me, just because you married my son, doesn't mean my heart has grown fondly of you and if you think just because you are now the one of the major shareholders of my company, you can make decisions without informing me?" You are wrong. my heart will learn to love you? You are thinking wrong, I will NEVER ACCEPT YOU!"
Her mother in law said slamming the files again on the table before leaving the board room,
the board of directors all stared and watched. She did it before and now she is doing it again.
"Okay, we would move this meeting to another day Linda? Meet me in my office" Mrs. Maya Bond said as she left
"This is just wrong, why does Mrs. Bond treat her daughter in Law like that? Why does she embarrass her and not give her chance?" One of the staff members asked as they were always confused as to why Mrs. Bond treated her Son's wife that way.
"Well, tonight at the team bonding and relaxation night, I will tell you all about it" Gerald, the oldest staff replied.
'We have heard rumors about how badly Mrs. Bond treat her daughter in law and it has been that way since the very first day that they met'
Mrs Bond and her daughter in law point of view.
