“ we have found a possible solution to the products in the market " Jett announced
Everyone looked amazed, just within how many days someone has come up with a solution.
“ Please everyone welcome, Miss Ava, as I give her an opportunity to explain, she is the one with the new market strategy" Jett made way for Ava to stand in the middle of the room and all eyes was on her.
She immediately went into explaining her plans just did the same way she explained to Jett.
“ ok, Miss Ava we do agree that your plan is okay and seems to be the best on ground but how do we get a celebrity with a good fandom" one of the staffs spoke
“ yes, there are a lot of celebrities in and outside Country V and even M City, how do we know which is okay and will be of greater benefits?" another staff asked
“ We are already making arrangement for that but if anyone of you have a any suggestions on that, you can tell us, we will give a listening ear" Jett replied to calm the staffs
“ I will be leaving Miss Ava to shoulder this responsibility, your opinions can be directed to her while she looks for a suitable person, this meeting is dismissed" Jett said and left the conference room
As everyone made there way out of the room, Amelia ran towards Ava who seems to try to meet up with her brother, Jett got into the office and Ava followed him.
“ you should have chosen someone else, I don't think I am capable of carrying such responsibility" Ava agitated
“ and also I just joined the company recently, it will look like favoritism" Ava continued
“ you brought up the idea, so it will not make any sense if I give it to someone else" Jett replied
“ I think CEO is right" Amelia who has been at the door spoke up.
“ You are free to choose who ever is suitable for this project to assist you to make it an accomplishment, you can leave" jett dismissed her and Amelia
Ava and Amelia left together, “ is that the reason you left the cafeteria" Amelia asked
Ava gave a nod, “ wow, that's awesome!, your plan is good" Amelia yelled
“ so what are you going to do, I mean concerning getting a good celebrity" Amelia asked
“ Amelia will you be among my team" Ava requested

“ so why did you call" Andrew asked
“ I think am going to need your help, my fathers company needs a celebrity to boast our new products in the market, so am just confused who do you think is going to be okay for this role" Ava explained
“ hmm, there are a lot of celebrities inside and outside the M City, this is going to be a difficult thing" Andrew replied
“ because if you don't use someone who is suitable, it will affect the company, you know like someone with a lot of scandals, will not be suitable for it" He continued
“ I will try to talk to my brother and father, so you can come, it will be best if you are here" Ava recommend

The constant ringing of the phone woke Ava from her sleep “ ooh, who will be disturbing my beautiful sleep this morning for gods sake it's Saturday, I don't walk on weekends" she grumbled.
She decided to ignore the call and continued sleeping, the phone started ringing again it seems the caller will not give up, she turns over to her table and picked her phone.
“ Hello, who am I speaking to?" she asked with a sleepy tone
“ Ava , I can see you just woke up from sleep" Ava looked at the screen and saw that the caller was Mr Andrew
“ oh my gosh am so sorry, I did not know you were the one I just woke woke up" She apologize
“ you today is weekend so I wasn't expecting any work related stuff today" she further explained.
“ I have been waiting for you at the airport for the past four hours" Andrew stated
“ what, I thought you said Thursday" Ava was startled
“ yes, I said Thursday but your brother booked my flight for Wednesday and I have been calling you since yesterday before I got on the plane to inform you but you did not pick any of my calls" Andrew explained
“ ok am on my way coming"Ava dropped the call and went to take a shower.
She quickly prepared and got in to her car and drove down to the airport on getting there she searched for him and saw a young man putting on a plain trousers and a T-shirt talking with an old woman.
“ Andrew good morning, am so sorry for keeping you waiting" Ava apologized
Andrew stood up and took his luggage and spoke “Grandma it was wonderful talking to you, this is my friend Miss Ava, i will be taking my leave"
“ oh, grandma good morning, are you waiting for someone" Ava inquired
“ yes my child, am waiting for my grand son, it seems he is very busy that's why he is not yet here and he will not want someone else's to pick me but I keep waiting” grandma replied with a smile
“ grand ma where do you stay maybe I can drop you there" Ava requested

Ava knowns that street its close to the street that leads to her house
“ come on grandma join us I live close to there, come on let's go" Ava replied and took her luggages, the old woman had no other choice than to join them. Andrew who was waiting in the car was surprise to see Ava and the good woman coming.
“ Andrew I will drop her home, I will feel bad to leave her there” Ava put all of her luggages into the car, she took the wheel and drove out of the airport.
Ava got to ASRock street and asked “ grandma which of the houses am I dropping you at"
“ my child if you go a little further you will see a house painted grey" grandma replied
Ava gave a nod and resumed driving, as she drove she noticed the house painted grey and its the most beautiful and attractive and amongst all the house.
ASRock is a street meant for the elite, Ava suspected that grandma must be from a rich family.
She stopped at the house and helped the old woman carry her luggages in to the house, some of the house keepers came and collected the luggages in to the house.
“ Oh, my dear why don't you and your friend come in for a tea" Grand ma asked
“ no thank you ma" Ava rejected
“ Grand ma, I will be on my way now, do take care of yourself and don't forget to inform your grandson so that he will won't go to the airport” Ava gave a bow and turned to leave
“ Thank you Ava, God bless you" Grand ma gave her gratitude as Ava left the house
“ Grandma your here , where is uncle" One of the children of their maids who she's sees as her grandchild ran to her
“ Oh, a young lady dropped me, go and call your uncle so he won't bother to look for me" grandma replied
“ ok grandma" her grandson responded and left to make the call
Ava and Andrew continued their journey to Stone mansion. Ava drove the car while Andrew slept which indicates that he is stress out.
She drove into the garage, packed her car and woke Andrew up from his sleep. Andrew stretched his body and came out of the car, he followed Ava as they got into the house. Andrew could not help but admire the interior decoration of the house,
“ what a great master design" he murmured
“ You like the house" Ava who has noticed Andrew eyes which has been spying the entire place since they entered asked
Andrew gave a nod“ it's beautiful" He replied.
They climbed the stairs and Ava showed him his room, he got in, went and had his bath and got on the bed and slept off.
