Married to the General's son

"I've already known that you are the most arrogant and pompous being I've ever seen nor met but now I would add being senseless and unreasonable to the list -what did you take me for kelvin Morgan? a cheap slut? ". Claire said glaring at him trying to pour out all her frustration and pent up anger through her words. It's been four years since she had started working with the Morgan's beauty world and she barely got to see the so called hier of the company. though their parts barely crossed, she would not denie the fact that she's familiar with the CEO of the company, not that she wants anything in return but because he's a kind and simple man. a retired General. And here his arrogant and pompous (of course I know he's pompous) son wants me to marry him or I lose my job. Claire thought as she rolled her eyes. "Who gave him the right?.. me..marry him because he's the heir?.. no way ".

Chapter 23

Linda visited the Morgan's beauty world but she didn't go there in order to visit Kelvin rather her intention was to pay a visit to her younger sister who was an intern. actually on her way coming, she had reminisced on what she would say when she visits . she needs to keep an eye on Claire because something keeps gwaning at the back of her mind about the girl .

   Stepping into the room used by the interns,she located her sister's cubicle and sat down.

   "ohh !!" her sister's eyes widen on seeing her , " Linda ..."  the girl chocked as she double blinked. never had her sister ever paid her a visit . the only time she visited was when she got the job and that was the day she ran into Kelvin for the first time and start drooling over him . still confused and surprised, she picked up her sister's hand to be sure it was her .

     " sis ,is everything alright?" she asked certain. Linda tsked and rolled her eyes .

    " I came so what ? anyways have you heard of the name Scott Claire ?"

     " yes ." her sister nodded .

    " Good , I'm asking for a favour. I want everything you know about her ."

     " Why ?" her sister was confused. she only knew the person because Claire was one step above her ,not that she normally relate with her and recently she heard that she has been promoted. so how would she know anything about her .

    " Just do what I said ."

    " And also ,I want you to keep a tab on her from now henceforth, unless you like your position ."

    Linda looked at her sister firmness that gives no room for argument because she know that their mother isn't happy with her current position despite the fact that she Linda is seeing the CEO'S son .

    "okay ," her sister nodded ," I would send you a record of what I knew about her and also keep record of her ."

    Linda was pleased with what she heard as she smiled at her .

     " Don't worry I would find a way to promote you ." the sister just nodded at her and she left .

     Linda was very happy as she walked out of the company with a smile of triumph,as is she won a golden medal.

    Quickly getting down to work ,her sister wrote down all she knew about Claire from the time she started working here till the time she got promoted. the people that visits her , those she talked to and even when the CEO visited her office. she wrote them down and send the copy to her sis .

     Immediately Linda received it , her eyes lightened and she quickly went through it . she realized that the person she saw with on that day was her close friend. a though came  to her mind that moment . she would also track that one too . because she knew it would be a little difficult to get relevant act from Claire due to the fact that she's living with Kelvin and that she's his secretary.

     Though she knew within her self that something was off about her ,she decided to dig it out slowly.

...........

    Everyone who heard that the chairman had visited the company was elated,they all rushed out to greet and welcome him . the atmosphere in the company that moment was lively.

     General Ben,the now chairman of the Morgan's beauty world,strode gracefully as he also waved back at the staffs that came out to greet him . he quickly walk down to his son's office for a surprise but before that he stopped at Claire's cubicle.

       " Ha ! " Claire's eyes widen as she stood up with a smile . what a surprise. she didn't know that the former CEO now chairman would visit their company. bitting down on her lips as she smiled at him ,Claire gestured towards the chair across her for him to sit on .

   " You don't have to be so formal with me dear. " Mr Ben laughed heartily as he sat down .

     " How are you?" he asked .

    Claire nod her head and smiled," I'm fine sir ."

    " Hey drop all these courtesy, you're talking to your father now." Mr Ben feigned annoyance and Claire chuckled.

      " Hope Kelvin is not giving you a hard time ?" Mr Ben lean in closer as his ears perked up .

     " No no ." Claire frantically shook her head as she waved her hands .

   Mr Ben drew back as he playfully touched his heart and breathed out in relieved. " I thought I would sue him when I come but alas he's behaving well ."

    Claire just smiled at him and nod her head.

    Meanwhile,some distance further from them , a pair of curious eyes were kin on the senerio playing.  the pair of eyes took in every movement and actions made by the actors. it lifted up a book in its hand and note down something then left .

    Mr Ben stood up from his seat and went to his son's office.

      "Dad .." Kelvin looked surprised upon seeing his father at the a company without prior notice.

   " Did I caught you doing something bad ?" the old man narrowed his eyes at his son as he took a sit on the cushion.

    Kelvin made a phone call and in less than one minute someone came in with a bottle of wine and a glass .he took it from the person after murmuring a thanks and opened it for his father as he poured some quantity into the glass and offered it to him .

    " Were you bored at home ?, wat about Daisy?"

   "Hey one question at a time ." Mr Ben frowned at him as he took a sip from his drink .

    Kelvin pinched the skin between his brows and breath in . "okay ,were you bored at home ?"

      " No ."

   " Then why are you here ?, did you have any message?"

    " sorry " he apologized when his father looked at him as if to remind him of what he just said . " Did you have any message?"

     " No " Kelvin could only face palm in his mind .

   " Then why did you come ?"

    "Did I caught you doing something wrong ?"

  Actually Kelvin feared one thing . it was Linda . he feared that the devil incarnate of a lady would suddenly appear in his office and it would cause an uproar he doesn't want. forcing himself to calm down, Kelvin smiled at his father and returned back to his seat .

    " No ,you can enjoy your stay ."
