LIAM AND MR HEMSWORTHLiam Carnegie felt flustered from his encounter with Athena as he walked down the corridor away from her office office, he could feel his heartbeat elevate.As usual, she still messed up his thought process and it was unnerving.Liam get a hold of yourself.Revenge was already in motion and his plan to take over was well underway.I’m not sorry for causing her such distress. “It’s just Karma bitch.”He said under his breath as he made his way to her father’s office.With Mr. Hemsworth, he would never be sure what to expect.Liam barely had any encounter with him throughout the time that they were married. Mr. brown would always say that the downfall of a man came when he allowed himself to be controlled by a woman. That was the case of Mr. Hemsworth.Because he was such incompetent in himself, he relied on his wife and hung on her every word because he was too afraid to dare it on his own. His wife being so aware of his codependency capitalized on it and made
THE HEMSWORTH’S MANSION All through the weekend, Athena could not stop herself from worrying.In the house, there was this feeling of doom that seemed to linger around. Everyone was in a sad and solemn mood.Mr Hemsworth didn’t come out for breakfast.“Where’s dad?”Athena had asked her mum as she showed up to a table set for just two people.“He’s locked himself in his study all through the night and hasn’t come out yet.”Athena’s face fell and she lost all appetite.She loved her father so dearly and absolutely hated the fact that he was having a hard time.“Have you checked up on him?” Athena asked.“Yes, he just wouldn’t come out.”“What about breakfast?”“What about it?”Mrs Hemsworth replied.“Will daddy not have any breakfast?”Athena could never figure out how her mother showed no care or compassion to her own husband whom she’d been married to for almost thirty years.She was only happy with him when he did something right and despised his very existence whenever he made a
LIAM AND ATHENA AT WORK Liam stood outside the door to Athena’s office waiting patiently for her to open it for him.It took about two minutes and then he heard the keys turn, her door opened with a small crack and she peeped out a little.“What do you want?”“Apart from having control of my company, nothing.”Liam replied a smile on his face.Athena looked like she was about to have a nervous breakdown, she didn’t reply but just kept staring blankly at him.“You ok honey?” He asked reaching over to hold her.Athena jumped as if startled.“Don’t you dare touch me.”Liam laughed.“How many times do I have to tell you darling?…I don’t bite.”“What are you doing in my dad’s company? What is the meaning of this Liam?”She asked as if she were clueless.“If you let me in, we could have a normal conversation Athena.”She stared coldly at him for a while.Liam thought she was going to attack him with something but was surprised when she opened the door wider and went inside her office.Sin
WORKING WITH THE HEMSWORTHLiam and Harry made to the car. And they both got in. Liam was impressed when he saw the company driver was already in his car.Harry had gotten something right.“He must have gotten his keys from the valet”Liam thought.Whenever he got to work, Mr. Colton took it upon himself to drive him wherever he wanted to be.Liam had an official driver who was most times idle because he rarely had need for him.“Good day Mr. Carnegie.”The driver smiled politely at him as he opened the door to the passenger’s seat for him.“Good day, thank you.”Harry got in the front seat next to the driver and they were off. Liam checked his phone and saw that he had smiled when he saw Sophie’s text.It was a selfie of her and was captioned;This girl might be getting Liam starved.Sophie’s sense of humor was always wholesome to Liam.He sent;Hang in there, we’re serving Liam for dinner.Then he went through his email on his phone and responded to his personal emails for the res
LIAM AND SOPHIE AT WORK Liam finally got to the elevator with Harry following closely. He passed by his secretary at the front desk of his office.They exchanged pleasantries and Liam got down to work.She told him that there were a couple documents on his desk waiting for his signature of approval for future projects. Harry had to fix in some other events into his weekly schedule but Mr. Colton had asked him to run them by Liam first to see if he would have the time for them. Liam gave Harry a list of Email addresses amongst which was Mr. Brown’s.First thing Monday mornings, Mr. Colton usually sent a report of how well things had gone the previous week with a list of weekly goals to Mr. Brown in China but today it was going to be Harry’s duty. When Liam started looking for a replacement for Mr. Colton, that was when Harry had been recommended. Mr. Colton interviewed and accessed him so Liam knew he could rest assured. It was an effective system Mr. Brown had come up with to
MONDAY AND WORK Liam got into his car and drove out of the garage into the street ahead. He saw Sophie waving at him from the front poach.To Liam, that was one of the most wholesome sights. He looked at his rolex watch and saw the time was few minutes to eight. He planned to stop by at his main office because Mr. Colton had informed him that there would be a meeting with the board of directors at Alpha tech, then he would show up to the Hemsworth’s to see how things were being run and how to make them better. His plan was to make Hemsworth technologies a division of Alpha tech.They were into telecommunications mainly which was a sector he saw potential and which Alpha Tech had been unable to branch into although they had indicated interest. It was no news that the Telecommunication industry was a goldmine.Apart from his interest in getting revenge on the Hemsworths, Liam made the decision to buy their company because he saw opportunity knocking. Liam’s phone rang and brought
MONDAY MORNING AT LIAM’SSophie thought that Monday came too quickly. Unlike Liam who was always ready to throw himself into the hustle and bustle of the Labor market, Sophie preferred a more chill and relaxed approach to life.She was glad that she now ran her own business and worked on her own terms. Liam wasn't the early riser, so she had to wake him up for work. She also got breakfast ready for him while he took a shower and got dressed. Sophie enjoyed making breakfast for Liam, she considered it a hobby sometimes.Breakfast today was spaghetti, stir fry and fried chicken which was one of his favorite dishes.“Hmmm, something smells real nice down here.”Sophie looked up ad saw Liam coming down from the stairs looking dashing in his outfit for work.“But of course Sophie, you picked out his clothes yourself.”She thought to herself. He wore a u-lock slim fit jacket, well ironed trousers and shiny black Louis Vuitton squared buckle derby.Liam smiled at her and Sophie felt her
THE REST OF THE WEEKEND WITH SOPHIEThe weekend went by smoothly for Sophie and Liam.For Liam, in the midst of Sophie’s smoldering him with her lover and attention he had little time to think about the Hemsworths all through the weekend. The closest Liam got to that was a text that Colton had sent him inquiring about what his deal with the “blond rude but extremely pretty Hemsworth heir.” (as he described her) was. Liam left him on read but when Colton kept bugging him with his curious texts, Liam was forced to pull out the- we don't bring work home from the office card.“But it's not about work, it's about your ex-wife.” Mr Colton replied.“She’s now work to me.”“Work of pleasure.” Mr. Colton replied inserting a winky face emoji.“You’ll get a report on your desk first thing Monday morning.”Liam replied to end the conversation.“You had better, or so help you God.”After Mr. Colton asked him about Athena, Liam was reminded of his unsolved business with her. He was a little exci
