Taming the fury God

Chapter 9: A good CEO

What does it mean to become a good and reputable CEO? August asked himself with a sigh.

He doesn't know simple!

And doesn't even want to know anymore.

Ever since the meeting, August has been feeling like a disgrace. Of course many people would wholeheartedly grab this handsome opportunity that was handed easily to him by God?

Was it really a good thing for a novice like him to become the head of a huge firm?

A firm that the owner didn't even enjoy before his life ended.

What if this mighty and mysterious organization gets destroyed because of his lack of knowledge? Would the owner feel unhappy and curse him for ruining his hard earned effort? Could it be justified as hard earned since his generations was known to be very rich?

Whatever!

Whether it was hard earned or not, August was ready to at least respect his body's owner efforts. And that's why he has decided to do his best by learning how to manage a big organization successfully. He browsed them online. He really wanted to do this in other to uphold his body's owner legacy just to honor him since he was somehow rewarded with this good and headache position; something he worked hard for.

One week, yes it's been one whole week since he had a meeting with the board members.

A meeting that he was nothing but a disgrace.

A meeting that he was more of a figure head than a CEO.

A meeting that he had nothing to contribute and just listened like an i***t, all the questions that was asked to him we're left unanswered as he was clueless and didn't know what to say.

There has been so many other meetings since then, not with the board members but from clients and other business partners, he didn't know what to say or do....those occasions has been the most embarrassing moments of his life. And that's why he wanted to change it. He needed to know about the companies that was collaborating with this one and other things. He just have to try and put effort into letting himself absorbed in what is happening here.

"Hmmm....... I'm just too tired to do anything. Let's go home" August who couldn't handle the pressure he subjected himself to suddenly gave up. Getting aquainted with whatever that was going on in this building was just too much for him to handle; such a headache.

"I will go with you, sir?" Canon said as he got up and started arranging the papers that his abnormal Boss scattered everywhere.

"You don't need to I can go on my own" August felt helpless. He's been trying to escape this hell of a beautiful scary place but all his plans has always been watered down by this clingy assistant of his. If the guy keeps hanging around him, how the heck was he going to get the chance to run? 

Yes he still has in it mind to runaway!

Like far away where no single person that knew him would locate him. Wherever that is he doesn't care as far as he's away from the limelight.

He knew that it was wrong since he'd obligations and responsibilities that seriously needs him, but he has also tried by burying himself inside those papers just to get what was going on here but all his efforts proved futile; his brain must've been locked by something so don't blame him. He has tried by giving it all his best, since it wasn't working at all, it's better to live his own life and not in the shadow of his dead body owner.

Now his so called assistant was the problem. He has tried so many times to shake the guy off his back but he's always managed to maintain his track on his trail.

"Sir, it's still dangerous for you to go around alone and since I'm the only one that knows your secret, it's best that I accompany you" Cannon reasoned with his stubborn Boss. He couldn't believe they were arguing about this again.

"Just do as you wish. I won't argue with you anymore" August suddenly gave up which surprised his assistant.

Normally he would argue continuously, an argument that he would eventually lose.

So Cannon was surprised to see him give up easily.

Knowing what was going on in his assistant's head, August rolled his eyes. I will just leave you to stick around me for just some days before finally disappearing from you, he reassured himself before getting up to leave.

Just as August was about to open the door with Canon right behind, a gentle knock suddenly sounded on the door, halting their movements.

"Who is knocking on the door? Do I have any booked appointment?" August turned to his assistant.

"No sir" Canon was clearly surprised too. And why didn't the secretary give a call to inform us?" He reasoned out loud.

And that was when it dawned on August. If the secretary didn't inform him about the visitor, it must be....

"Hi, darling. Did you miss me?" Came Mira's seductive voice. Today she was putting on a body hug Black and red gown that showcased her sexy curves and of course her lips was colored with red, her hair as usual neatly pulled into a tight bun. When she walks, her shape that's balanced on an obvious expensive blacks heels sways beautifully. What a classic and elegant lady!!!

Just that she looks dangerous too, ah.

Oh God NO....I don't.want to face her, August panicked. What was he going to do? She's like a sexy type of snake that slowly crawls into your skin and then to your brain and after gaining the whole of you, it will control you and then crush you afterward when your use was over.

"What are you doing here?" August asked coldly. At least, he was just trying to look cold. That a soul got transferred into an empty body doesn't mean that the soul would inherit the body's owner characters. Yes they were different.

This August and the previous August are different and that could be seen by the way this August was turning seriously red; he was actually blushing.

In his previous life, he never had either man or woman as a partner and died as a virgin; simply because of the way he isolated himself from the world.

Although he helped people while he was alive, it was just online. Nobody really knew the real him that couldn't stand talking to people face to face, talk more of helping them. He locked himself everyday in his small room.

Mira walked up to August and hugged him and as she  threw herself into his strong arms. "I Know you want me just the way I want you sweetheart, so hang out with me?" She said while rubbing herself against August's firm chest. A reliable man indeed.

August gritted his teeth while his breath hitched.

What a shameless lady! She was doing this to him even though he wasn't alone.

This was the first time that a lady would show interest in him, a blatant one at that.

Can this powerful lady actually fall for him? August thought but a small voice within him reminded him, "She's attracted to your previous body owner and not a coward like you"

That's right! She wasn't here for him but rather, she was still holding onto that dead guy's image.

August's high spirit suddenly deflated instantly upon this realization but it feels so good to be caressed and hugged this way; a gentle touch from a gorgeous queen. Hmmmm!!!!
