The next day, late in the morning, Keith was woken up by Amelia, who informed him that they had to reach the Office as the Delegation from the Government was returning to inform them about their decision.
Keith, of course, knew what their decision was going to be, but he had to be present to oversee the signings of the contracts.
After planting a quick kiss on Rebecca's cheek, who was still soundly asleep at 11 in the morning, he got out of bed to get ready.
When they reached the Office, Nana and May were already waiting for the two of them, and at exactly 12:15 pm, the meeting started.
The Black Forest Group had won the contract for not just the new Metro Station in the south of the city, but also in the east, where the future Noxville was going to be built.
Additionally, all the plans of Black Forest Group to create a Shopping District and a Housing Society in the South of the City were approved by both the City Council and the Provincial Government. They also received a substantial waiver on the taxes, since they were helping the city Government and also planned on building some social projects such as a Public Hospital, a School, as well as an Orphanage.
The contracts they signed today, assured them Billions of Neris. In the recent history of the City, these were the biggest Real Estate Projects, and their value was something to be envied even by the most successful of businesses in the industry.
Later, both Keith and Amelia, together with the Mayor of Sameran City, gave a public statement about all the contracts that had been signed today. The exact location of the Noxville was still not made public, but Black Forest Group earning the Metro Station Project in the future Business and Entertainment City was thunderous news.
Since he had not eaten anything in the morning, they ate their lunch at the Starlight Tower's Cafeteria. After which, Amelia got to work with the Engineers and the Architects to finalise all their projects. She planned on getting everything done by today, and Keith decided to stay at the Office, planning on going back home together with her.
"What's troubling you?" He asked the girl in the pantsuit with a high ponytail, his beautiful lover and secretary, who was sipping on her Slush with her eyes vacant and mind filled with troubling thoughts.
"Nothing..." Nana timidly replied and shook her head.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Tell me." He demanded, and her body went stiff.
She stayed silent for a good minute, and he patiently waited for her to start speaking.
"It's about my mother..." She finally told him.
"Is she okay?" He frowned and asked.
"Yes." She immediately nodded but seemed troubled. "But lately she's been going out with her colleague in the evenings. She seems really happy, but..."
"But you are worried that she will get hurt?" He smiled at her and watched her nod to his words. "Don't worry. The one she is dating is a decent man. I have already had checks run on him, and he doesn't have any ulterior motives." He assured her.
With all that was going on, Keith had taken all the precautions, and just like Nana, his first thoughts too had been that the man had some ulterior motives, but it turned out that he really loved her mother.
"But..."
"She has her life, Nana. She has sacrificed most of it to raise you on her own. Now that things are stable in your lives, can you really blame her for seeking some happiness?" He gently spoke to her.
"I just don't want her to get hurt again." She had tears brimming in her eyes. "My father used to be a decent man too, but then he started drinking, gambling, and even started beating her."
"And after all that happened to her, she's still willing to trust this man. Right?" He smiled and asked. "Have a little faith in her. Also, you can rest assured that she won't suffer again. After all, you will be there to protect her, and I will always be by your side."
His words worked like magic on her aching heart, and all her worries waned.
"Thank you, Keith!" She sweetly smiled at him, and then got up to walk across the table to come to sit in his lap. She hugged him, and then rested her head on his shoulder.
It was quite unprofessional behaviour by a secretary during office hours, but he did not really mind it.
Keith gently stroked her back, comforting her, and when she was completely relaxed, he leaned near her ear.
"Let's have some fun." He devilishly whispered and loved watching her burn in a furious blush.
"We can't..." Nana embarrassedly spoke.
And even though Keith knew the reason behind it, he still teased her.
"Still scared of having sex in the office?" He grinned. "But if I remember right, you were not even suppressing your moans last time..."
"I..." She tried to defend herself but her shoulders slumped in defeat. "We can't because I have my periods...." She meekly whispered.
"I know." He chuckled and raised her head to nudge his nose with hers. "But you can still please me in other ways, you know." He meaningfully said. "Let's see if you have made any progress with your tongue."
He locked the door with Magic, and then pushed the girl under the desk, not giving her any chance to make excuses.
The thought of locking the door did not even cross her mind as the silly girl unbuckled him, and got to work rather obediently.
Keith gently caressed her head as she served him, giving her compliments from time to time. She had improved a lot on her oral skills since the first time she had served him, and he was really glad about it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNana was quite happy to see him pleased. And even though it was a very shameful act, the truth was that she has come to love the taste of him and his seed. It was surprisingly quite delicious, and she wondered why some girls complained about having to give oral sex to their partners.
How would she know that his seed tasted very different from the other men? The innocent her was forever meant to belong to him, never to learn about the difference.
After Nana cleaned and tidied him up, with his flavour fresh in his mouth, she handed him his cell phone that was on the table, which had been buzzing for a while now.
She was quite curious when she read the name of a girl she did not know about. But she did not ask any questions.
"Hello, Ayesha." He brightly smiled as he picked up the call, but on the other end, only silence answered him. "I suppose you have received the test results?" He asked, helping her speak up.
"Yes." Her voice was a little bleak, but the gratefulness was unmistakable. "Thank you..." She was on the verge of choking on her emotions.
"You are welcome." He lightly said. "Now, return to Sameran. I am hosting a Birthday Party tonight at the Pacific Oriental. You can wear whatever you think would be suitable. No need to worry about it. Just be there by 9 pm." He instructed her.
"Okay." She replied to him and then turned silent.
It was as if she wanted to say something, or perhaps, wanted him to say something, but Keith did not drag on their conversation.
"I will see you tonight then. Be safe!" He said and ended the call. "Please check on the preparation for tonight." He smiled at Nana, who professionally nodded to him and immediately got to work.
It was nearly 7 pm when Amelia got free from all the work, and they were about to leave the office when Caesar told him a piece of news that had started spreading throughout the city.
Lin Houtian, President of the Lin Group of Industries, was caught up again in another high-profile scandal, and this time, he was going to have murder and arson charges filed against him.
The evidence was conclusive, including a call recording, as well as the statement of the person who had done things under his order. The man was already long dead. He had sensed that Lin Houtian might take him out to close the leads, and he recorded the conversation he had with Lin Houtian's trusted man, and also recorded the details of the plan before storing it in a safe place.
Seven people had died that night in the fire and Explosion in the main warehouse of a company, which destroyed all the precious goods that were scheduled to be dispatched in the next few days. The incident proved fatal for the company that, within two months after the 'accident', filed for Bankruptcy. Lin Houtian later took over the company at a cheap price. And now, that very Medical Technology Company was a star amongst the Lin Group of Industries.
Even though the incident was 16 years old, and Lin Houtian had taken every precaution, closing any leads, he still missed one. And now, the demons of the past were coming after him.
