Chapter 464: Caught at the endThe door opened suddenly and two men walked inside.
A man that was already inside and seemed to be waiting for the two men, looked up and released a
sigh.
"Anything?" The man asked.
The two men made a nod of their heads.
"Nothing sir.We are unable to get anything.It doesn't even look like they've had any meetings this year."
"Yes, it looks like they don't plan on joining for this year after all," the second man informed.
The man who was on the chair and well, the boss, sighed again.
"It's exactly like I thought but we need concrete evidence to report to the boss," he explained and
stood.
"We need a picture or maybe a video.Then, we can be done with this," he cleared his throat.
"Let's stay calm for today.We will get our evidence tomorrow.For now, let's get some drinks," he
announced.
The other men whooped in delight.
The boss had a wide smile on his face as he moved to the door.
Just as he opened it, a lady walked past him.
He hesitated, but his eyes followed her to her door.
novelbinThe lady hesitated as if suddenly realising that someone was watching her.She looked back and caught the man staring.
Fearfully, she hurried inside her apartment.
The boss was still watching, with a sly smile on his face and his tongue moving over his lips slowly.
"Is anything the problem?"
One of the men asked from behind.
"That lady, I want to know everything about her.Find me more about her," he ordered.
"Yes boss," the men chorused at the same time.
Maximo read through the contract for a moment and looked up at Avery.
"Seriously? I mean I don't expect this to be ready very fast.I mean we were just discussing yesterday
about your decision to expand in Italy." Avery smiled.
"I understand what you mean.And yes, that was my plan today but I want this to happen as quickly as
possible.I would like to start my plan in Italy.I don't want to waste time as time is money," she explained.
Maximo laughed.
"Actually, I love the way you think.I knew you would be so busy and I'm sorry for taking your time
yesterday night," he placed his hand on his chest dramatically.
Avery laughed.
"It's ok, actually.I had fun last night.But like I've said initially, I'm only concerned about my business and
I would be so happy if you can assist me in any way." Maximo nodded once."I will do that, Miss Avery.That is a promise, just tell me what you want.Besides, I literally own this
place.It will be easy for me to do anything for you," he assured.
Avery smiled with gratitude.
"Thank you, Mr.Maximo. Then, I think you should check chapter 3 because I've added a clause
already," she revealed.
Maximo gathered his forehead at this, a bit surprised as he wasn't expecting it. He flipped through the
pages until he was Staring right at the clause. His eyes went wide with shock.
"What?" He looked up at Avery.
"What is this supposed to mean, Miss Avery?"
"I need David actually.I need someone to help me with information about Italy.You are the CEO and you
wouldn't be available every time.Also, I need someone I would be able to associate with very
well.David falls into that category.So, that's why I'm proposing it," she revealed.
Maximo regarded her for a moment.
"Oh, that's actually good but David doesn't work in this company again," he lied.
Avery frowned.
"Why? Did something happen?"
"I fired him, Avery.I discovered that we have so many employees and to ensure stability and efficiency, I
had to fire some employees which include David."Avery looked away as she reasoned it for a moment.
The contour on her face told Maximo that she was sad by the news or maybe even heartbroken but it
was the best."That's no problem, actually," she looked up suddenly, a smile suddenly finding its way to her face.
"I will employ him," she revealed.
Maximo stood still for a moment, too shocked to talk.
"What! What did you just say?"
Avery smiled briefly.
"I just said I would employ him.In fact, that will make the work easier for me."
Maximo shook his head quickly.
"No, I don't think that will work out.Gr_," he stopped suddenly and cleared his throat meaningfully.
"I mean David isn't in Italy.He left for his hometown."
"Where is that?"
Avery inquired with a straight face.
Maximo was dumbfounded.He didn't even know what he was supposed to say again.
"Well, I understand if you are trying to be private about your employees but you should be assured that
I mean no harm.Besides, I want you to help me with this.If you don't help me, I will find my help
elsewhere and that means we won't be signing this contract," she watched him for a moment and
noticed some suspicious movements.She ignored them.
"So, can you get him to see me? Today? He could come over to my suites.We can talk about it and_"
"And if he doesn't want the job?"Maximo cut in before she could finish talking.
"If he still doesn't want the job after my persuasion, I will let it go.Then we can sign this contract," she
said truthfully.
Maximo released a groan.
"I can get you someone as good as David.There won't be any difference."
"It's David I want," Avery stressed.
"Do we have a deal or not?"
Maximo regarded her for a moment.
Actually, he has started developing feelings for Avery but it seemed like there was more to Avery that
he didn't know.
Avery was stubborn and unbending.
But he also wondered how Grey was going to take the news.
What was he supposed to do? What option was he supposed to give Avery?
