Chapter 9

Ida turned to the direction the little one was looking at but didn't see anyone, he turned back to the little boy and asked," did you just call 'dad?'"

"Yes, I saw him just now," the little boy jumped down from the seat and ran towards the door, he stepped out and looked to the left and right but didn't see anyone.

Ida followed and also checked but there wasn't a sight of anyone.

"I thought I saw him now," the little boy said, confused.

"It's okay," she carried him and went inside the room with her, she made her rest on her bed and said, "I'll tell you a story, will you like to listen ?"

"Sure."

Ida began to tell the little boy a story until he faded off to sleep. When it was 10PM,Perry came for him and took him back to his father's mansion.

Ida got a message in the midnight to resume work in the morning. She was extremely glad that she got the job.

She resumed work the following day. When it was lunch period, someone knocked on her desk and on looking up, she saw her head of department.

"How has been work, Ida?" The woman asked.

"Going well, ma," Ida responded with a bright smile. "Send me the works you have done so far."

"Alright, I'll forward them to your mail."

"Did you see the mail I sent you?" The woman asked.

"Not at all," Ida picked up her phone and quickly checked her mail. The mail had entered since but she hasn't even checked her phone since she resumed work because she has been busy.

She clicked it and read the content of the mail. She raised her head up in astonishment, " can I do that? I've just resumed work today."

The woman frowned slightly," I hope you know that your first two weeks here is your probation period? You are not a permanent staff yet."

"I know that."

"Good. You will be given several task and assignment during this period, as long as you can perform excellently, then we will make your job a permanent one here," she said.

"Oh! Okay..." Ida checked her wrist watch and said, "I guess I still have a couple of hours before I leave."

"Sure, make sure you secure the deal for our company. The client you are to speak with is a very rich somebody whose investment will benefit us greatly," she said.

"Alright. I'll try my best," Ida responded after which the woman walked away.

Ida sighed and glanced around at her colleagues who were discussing and having fun since it was break. She hasn't made any friends yet but she hopes that she makes one soon.

Since she wasn't really hungry, she decided to get back to work. She wanted to get done with it before going over to meet with the client she was to meet.

When it was 1:30PM, she signed out and walked out of the building. She took a cab to the hotel that she was to meet the client.

As soon as she got there, she took the elevator to the last floor and soon appeared in a large presidential suite.

She saw about three bodyguards standing strategically in different angle, she walked over to one of them but before she could speak, one of the bodyguards said, "Miss Ida, right? Please come with me."

Ida was surprised that the guard's even recognize her. She shouldn't expect less since she was meeting a powerful somebody. She was nervous and hoped that she would be able to secure this deal for the company

She already fell in love with the mode of operation of the company and would love to keep working there. She can't stand being fired from this work.

When she and the guard got before a door, he said, "he is inside this hall. Goodluck, miss," the guard bowed and walked away.

She nervously twisted the knob of the door and stepped in. She saw a man seated before a very long table in an hall that has only blue light.

The hall looked like an executive hall where meetings are being done. But she would be having meeting with just one person, why do they have to use an hall as big as this. It was even kind of scary that the light in the hall wasn't 't white, it was deep blue.

"Good morning, sir," she greeted and wondered which chair she was to seat amidst all of these chairs present here.

When she saw that the man's gaze was on her, she looked up to him and her heart skipped

What! The fuck is this bastard doing here?

"Are you the one I'm to meet?" She asked in disbelief.

"You didn't see anyone else here...so?" Olga asked.

Ida clenched her fist in anger, she was originally planning on sitting in one of the seats closer to him, she went to the end of the table and sat on the seat that was at the edge of the long table. The seat was directly opposite his.

If not that the hall was enclosed, the distance would have had to communicate with eachother with the use of microphone.

Olga smirked at her then looked at the door that was slightly opened, he pressed a remote in his hand and the door closed .

Ida wondered why he had to shut the door but she wasn't scared of him at all.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Olga," Ida decided to address him like a client alone. As though they both didn't have a past together.

But what sort of a bad luck is this? Her first client was her ex husband, the man who heartlessly killed her child. Ida was enraged on the inside but she had to act calm as this was a business assignment.

"Not nice to meet you, Ida," Olga said. "You dared to slap me in public! You even slapped my fiancée."

"Your fiancée?"

"So you don't know I'm engaged with your sister? How would you even know when you have become a cast away of your family," What Olga said hurt her to the core that she almost coughed out blood.

Her mother hates her with passion, she had even told her one day that she wished she was dead. Because of the consistent hatred from her family, she had decided to live as though she doesn't have a family but here was her ex husband , reminding her of the hatred her family had towards her.
