Dated in the past

Nicholas's POV.

The meeting started after the board room filled with the shareholders, there was tension in the air and everyone got up as father walked in.

Thomas walked in after him, his expression unreadable and he was almost scowling.

Dad waited until he had seated before he started.

He started his speech and Thomas chose that period to continue his craziness.

"You went on a date with your little girlfriend yesterday" he muttered softly and I almost cussed at him.

"I'm sure her father would be glad to find out." He threatened but that made me smile.

"Her father is aware" I informed him and he went quiet.

"I called this meeting to specifically inform everyone here that I am retiring and all my duties and position would be assumed by one of my sons till the right president is elected" Father's next statement distracted Thomas enough not to continue the argument with me.

We both tensed as we waited eagerly.
