Chapter 144 - Supporting Wife
They both slept more than daily cuddling each other. They felt so peaceful and content in each other's arms.
….
They quickly got ready and went to his company. When he was checking his mail, he noticed a mail from the old client who used to supply spare parts for his car design.
Mr. Wilson
Our company wants to end the business partnership with your company as our agreement will be going to end this month.
He was stunned by the reading with the mail from the client. He spoke with the head of the company many times. He was willing to continue to supply spare parts to his company.. He doesn't understand what happened to the sudden change in his decision.
He quickly made a call to him to talk but it was attended by his secretary.
" Good morning. I am his secretary " a female voice was heard on the other side.
" Can I speak to Mr. Oliver ?" Adrian asked.
" Sorry...Our boss is on his trip with family and he was not willing to take business calls, " his secretary informed.
" But I got an email from him," he said.
" My boss informed me to send the mail. I can not help you " she ended the call.
He placed his palms on his head and was thinking seriously.
…..
Katherine observed silently his conservation and walked to him.
" Ad...What happened? Any problem? " she asked him anxiously.
At the same time, his mobile started ringing. He didn't check the name and attended the call in a serious tone.
" Mr. Wilson… Hope you already received good news through the mail " he heard Mr. Green's voice.
" What will you do? In three days your agreement with K & K company will be ended!! " Mr. Green questioned him.
" So...is it your plan?" Adrian shouted.
" Yes...correct guess" he laughed sarcastically.
Then he continued after a few seconds, " I don't allow anyone to supply spare parts to your new designing car. So that you cannot complete your new deal which was done two days back "
Adrian threw his mobile in anger.
" Ad...what happened? " he asked, cupping his face. She was so worried about him.
" Mr. Green…" he gritted his teeth.
" What does he do? " she asked him.
He explained everything to Kathie, fuming in anger. She gave him a glass of water and asked to have it.
" We can get a solution to this problem only if we think with a calm mind, " she suggested.
" Mr. Green is an influential businessman. I don't think anyone will agree to supply spare parts to us, " he said with disappointment.
" Every problem has a solution. We will get a solution by thinking. " she boosted his confidence.
He was silent for a while and leaned back on his chair, losing his tie. Meanwhile, she prepared coffee for him and gave him the cup.
" Have it. You will feel relaxed…" she said.
He took it and started sipping the coffee. Then he started searching for other companies who could supply a bulk order of spare parts of the cars.
….
" May I help you with anything? " Katherine asked, standing beside him.
" Your presence is more than enough for me " he replied and resumed his work.
She felt bad that she was not in a position to help him as she is naive in his business. She was admiring a hardworking husband by staring at him without blinking her eyes. But he was not in a position to notice her.
After some time, she checked the time. It was time for lunch. She made a call to the help desk and informed her to order food for them.
….
After the food arrived, she informed him to have his lunch but he ignored her call and was still working on his laptop. She walked to his working table and moved his laptop away from him.
He looked at her, raising his head.
" I think sometimes, your son is better than you…" she said, holding the plate with food.
" Why? " He asked.
" He listens to my every word, but not like you, " she replied.
" You want me to stop working in my company !! " He questioned.
" Work after eating food. You should not skip your food. It's not good for your health, " she explained.
He sighed as he knew she would not leave him till he completed his food. He took the plate and finished his food in no time.
" Good boy…" she patted his cheek.
" Then no reward to this good boy…" he teased her.
" Carry on your work...Mr. Wilson " she said in a strict voice and served the food for her.
He smiled at her and resumed his work. On the other side, Katherine also started studying the client agreements files which were on the wooden rack in his cabin.
She started checking the client agreements one by one. Then she noticed the file of the same client who wanted to end the agreement deal with Adrian's company. She read each and every clause of the agreement copy.
When they both were busy with their work. Suddenly they heard a knock on the door. Katherine stood up and asked whether Adrian wanted to meet anyone at that moment.
" Yes...Come in, " Adrian said in a loud voice.
" Sir… still we didn't receive spares parts from the K & K company. We ordered them one week back. All our technical work is interrupted due to delay of the delivering of the spare parts " Mr Duke informed as soon as entered the cabin.
" What the hell is going on? Can't you monitor properly ? " Adrian shouted at him.
" When do you place the order for the supply for the spare parts ? " Katherine interrupted them.
" Almost fifteen days back…" Duke said in a shivering voice.
" Do you have evedience of ordering of them? " She asked him.
Adrain was watching her silently as he knew that when it comes to work she could be so dedicated.
" Yes… I have an email and also the acknowledgement of them " Duke replied with confusion as she was ordering him like a boss even though she is new to the company.
He wondered as his boss was also silent with her bossy attitude.
" Will you get the copy of what she asked in five minutes? " Adrian said.
