Unrevealed Truth

Chapter - 2

Sylvester's P.O.V.

"How did this happen again", I shouted to my staff from the tender department. "In the past 3 years, we didn't manage to snatch a single project just because you all are inefficient and clumsy. How every time we lost from only a small margin. This time we lost just because of the difference of what..... 20 dollars.????? are you all f*****g kidding me", I roared on all of them.

They all flinch at once and horror was clearly seen on their face. They have to fear. They must fear. I am paying them to get the projects for the company but they all are failed. Again we lost. Robert Corps.... yeah.... Robert Corps... which has no future 3 years ago... now blooming .... just because of a girl.... Anya Roberts... daughter of the CEO.... I threw the vase on the floor in anger.

"Everyone, get out of my sight", I roared again. Within a second... everyone was out of the room. I sat on my seat and loosen the tie. I leaned backward on my seat and rested my head backward. How could it be possible that every time that girl... Anya... defeated us every time? Both our company has applied for 10 projects together and her company won 9 of them. This is not just a coincidence. What if someone is a traitor here? This can be possible.

I know Mr. Roberts. He is a lazy ass and very incompetent boss. He can't manage the company on his own. I have seen her photos. She looks like a fragile doll with no expression on her face or impressive body language. She can't attract anyone with her body. She has a short of what .... 5" 2... with oval shape face. Long brown hairs with pale skin color. She is very skinny and lean... no curvey body. So, not possible to use herself as bait.  How did she manage to snatch every time? 

AAARRRRRHHHHHHH...... I hissed in irritation

I need to meet this girl. Whatever the reasons were I lost the projects, I want to know.

I came out of my trance by a knock on the door.

I regain my composition and said, "come in".

My PA came inside and stood in front of me with an envelope in his hand.

"What's that", I pointed towards the envelope.

"Sir, we have received an invitation for the 28th marriage anniversary of Mayor Sir from the Mayor's Office. This is on next Friday.", he informed me and placed the invitation in front of me on the desk.

"Send a gift and bouquet from our side to them and also an apology for not attending the party", I said in a stern voice as I have no intention to go there. It doesn't affect my status or business as I am the owner of the biggest company in this territory.

"Sir, I apologize for my big mouth, but I think you should attend this party", Ryan said hesitantly.

I gave him a stern look.

He cleared his throat and spoke again "Mayor's wife has a good relationship with Mr. Robert's wife and she likes his daughter very much. So, there is a high possibility that Ms. Anya will be there as they require some approvals from Mayor's office for their 2 ongoing projects. It will be the first time that she will make a public appearance."

I rested my chin on my fist on the desk and think again about the possibility. Ryan has a point. If she comes there, I can confront her there or can fix a meeting with her. Mr. Robert doesn't allow her to have any meeting with anyone. It's really strange. What a possessive father he is. 

"Ok, go through my schedule for that day and clear if necessary," I instructed him and waved him to go

Who are you Ms. Anya Robert. I asked myself in my thoughts.

Anya's P.O.V.

I was in my office working on the file work of the project we won from Jacksons. We had this project just by the difference of $20 from Blake Enterprises.

Blake Enterprises...

One of the World's best fortune 500 companies. It's really a big win for us. The current CEO of that company, Mr.  Sylvester Blake is the youngest entrepreneur and perfect billionaire bachelor right now. I have heard that he is ruthless and has a powerful aura. I once saw him during a meet I attended for bidding for a project in LA 3 years before. He is a very tall and handsome figure. He has maintained himself according to his personality. A perfect toned body with perfect muscles, beautiful brown eyes, round face with skeptical Jawline. His only smile can flatter any girl. I suddenly jerked my head and came out of my trance.

I gulped a full glass of water. What was I thinking? I am not allowed to think about any man. Dad had cleared this me before that he would soon merge our company with any other company on his terms and conditions so that our company can retain in this competitive world. I have to marry that businessman if he agrees to. If not, then whatever his conditions will be, I have to oblige them. He hasn't given me any kind of authority in the company.  It's my irony. In the last 3 years, I worked hard to grow this company like my kid. This company is my only happiness. But, how can I have happiness? 

A small tear dropped from the corner of my eye and I swept that with the back of my hand immediately.

I have to submit some reports to Mayor's Office too for some approval. I have a lot of work today. But the pain from yesterday's beating is bothering me.

I sighed and stand up from my seat, collected the files need to submit to Mayor's office, and came out of my room.

"Hey, I am going to Mayor's Office for important work. Please collect the message for me if anybody approaches me before my arrival", I requested one of my father's secretaries, Rita, sitting outside his office. "Don't worry. Go ahead and finish your work, Anya. I will take care here", she assured me with a smile.

"Thanks", I smiled back and left the building.
