Chapter 39
Kendrix
“Nothing seems to be working,”
I let out staring at my secretaries, they all looked tired already, and still, we were nowhere near finding a solution, I was determined to do this without involving Arielyn so instead of going back to her dad, as I already know he won’t listen until he gets what he wants, I decided to find other ways to meet the right people, but it was like I was playing with myself because everyone I have tried to talk to directed me right back to the people father had sent, it was hard to even find people related to that pack, it was as if no one in O-when was from Blue-ray pack, not like I expected to see a lot of them, they never want to see the light instead they choose to live in the woods away from the city and I just couldn’t go into the woods without proper work.
“Sir, I think our best bet is going back to George Embry,”
One of my secretaries said, if only she knew what the old man wanted in return for just one solo meeting, I hate how because of him I no longer feel like going home because Arielyn has become so conscious around me, I didn’t like it at all when she had left the dining room as soon as I entered this morning, I knew she wasn’t done eating when I walked in and she left just so she would not have to be in my presence, not to mention how she had practically ran into her room when we met each other on stairs that leads to our rooms.
“We have to find another way, I can’t give George what he wants and I also can’t back down from this,”
I stated, and they all went silent, my phone rang, breaking the silence and I dismissed them before I took the call.
“Yes, this his Kendrix speaking,”
I said and got told by the other person on the phone that I was to report to the Embry’s mansion as soon as I could, of course, I got up immediately and walked out of my office, I have been hoping he would call me for days now, or perhaps Arielyn went to see him, I had my doubt but that will be the only reason he suddenly wants to see me.
It took only twenty minutes for me to get to his house and I was shown to his office which I have gotten used to due to my previous visits.
“Good day, sir,”
I greeted him when I entered his office.
“Welcome, glad to have you back,”
He responded.
“Thank you,”
“No problem. I don’t know what you told my daughter but she came here because of you, so yeah, that’s why we are here right now and that’s why I will listen to what you have to say, keep in mind that whatever you did, if you can keep doing it, you might have my full support,”
the old man said confirming what I already knew, she came here for me.
“I am glad I could help,”
I said as he directed me to take a seat, I did and waited for him to start talking.
“As you know, we are not dealing with like-minded businessmen here, if not it will be easy, what you seek is nearly impossible, not like it totally is but your determination is what will decide if you will get what you want,”
He said and I nodded in understanding, everyone except the one who asked us to go for this knows how dangerous it was.
“I know, that’s why I need your help,”
I said when he didn’t continue, he wasn’t someone that talks a lot.
“I have plans in place to help you get what you want but you must be ready financially because everything comes at a price,”
He warned. I had no problem with the financial part, if that was all there is, it would have been pretty easy to achieve on my own.
“I am prepared,”
I responded. He nodded.
“I called you to tell you of my intentions to help and for start, the full moon is only a couple of days away and I usually go for a run in the blue ray pack, I have friends there and I will be speaking to them on your behalf,”
He informed me. I couldn’t remember the last time I went for a run, I had full control and I barely had time to let my wolf out and go for a run, I always see it as a waste of time.
“Loser,”
My wolf smeared bitterly but I ignored him. I should have known this man would have friends even among uncivilized wolves, I honestly thought he was going to invite me to run with him but he said he will speak to them on my behalf and that is a start.
“Thank you, sir, your effort is much appreciated,”
I said respectfully.
“Don’t thank me yet, as I said, everything comes with a price and you have to work hard and earn that, meanwhile, I sent you a phone number, call and set up a meeting with him, he will give you directions as to what is needed to acquire the land as soon as the blue ray pack releases it,”
He informed me, and I checked my phone and saved the contact. I already knew this would cause me a lot of money anyway.
“Thank you,”
“It is all good, now let’s talk about that price shall we,”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
he let out and I waited for him to name his price.
“Here is the thing, you seem to have a way with my daughter, even though you are not what I will want my daughter to be associated with, you can help,”
He said and I felt angry, no not because he would not want me for his daughter, I didn’t want her either, at least not in the way he thinks, but I was angry that what he wanted was to keep using me to get through to his child, it was offensive to listen to.
“With all due respect sir, I don’t have a way with your daughter, I spoke to her but she never even agreed to come see you,”
I informed him as politely as I could with all the other things I wanted to say to him buried in my mind.
