Chapter 84: GRACE
As they were talking, Noah quietly stood at the side looking at Dove, will was giggling and laughing. One thing that had noticibly changed about Dove was now she is more open about her feelings and she now smiles more often.
Back then, she did not laugh so much. Maybe she did. But Noah had not seen her laugh heartily ever since they had a silent fall out with each other. Maybe, she had no reasons for her to show them that she was laughing.
But now, she smiled and giggled more often. She now has a reason, her son. And the other change that he had come to notice is that, she seem to forgive people, just like how she has started to talk to him and his mother normally, despite the fact that they wouldn’t even share a word or two with straight faces.
But along with that, her demeanor had changed a lot. She did not allow anyone to stamp over her. It wasn’t like, she ever allowed that before, but she used to do it more subtly. And now she isore open about it.
Dove, she has really changed. Just then someone came to the office and befkre entering, they heard a voice, "CEO Dove, may I come in?" It was a female’s voice, that caught everyone’s attention.
And when they looked at the entrance, they found a sophisticated looking woman wearing a formal attire, standing at the door smiling politely.
She looked like in her early thirties, with a simple demeanor.
Looking at her, Dove slightly raised her eyebrows before a smile appeared on face and she called out, "Grace." Grace smiled back at her Boss before she stepped in the office.
Grace was Dove’s assistant, even back at the international branch when she was the Managing director. And Dove prefered to keep her as her assistant even here. As she was perfect with her work.
Grace had come to the country a few days before Dove and Gavriel, as she and her husband who also worked here at the Sterling Corporations, settle well here, along with their daughter.
Gavriel looked at Grace coming in, and his eyes widened and sparkled as she said, "Aunty Grace! How are you?"
Grace smiled at the little Gavriel before nodding her head and said, "I am doing fine, Master Gavriel. Thank you for asking."
She entered the office, and her eyes also fell on the Chairman present there. She had met the Chairman a couple of times, when he used to go and visit Dove, and sometimes would also come to the company with her to look at the world process.
Stepping in, she bowed at him in respect before smiling and said, "Good morning, Chairman."
Senior Sterling smiled at the woman, nodding his head and replied, "Good morning, Grace. Everything is settled here?" Grace looked back at the old man nodding her head and said, "Yes Chairman, everything is done."
She then greeted Dove and then Noah too, as she knew that he was one of the directors here. And then her eyes fell on Dante, and she opend her mouth and then closed. She looked at the good looking man, not knowing who he is, or how should she address him.
She turned towards Dove, to see the young woman smile at her, before she introduced her, "He is Mr Dante Lancaster. My personal bodyguard. He will be in-charge of my safety for a few months now."
"Uh?" Grace blinked her eyes, before her gaze turned into one of bewilderment as she looked at Dante and then Dove, and then back at Dante again.
Since when did Dove startrf having interest in taking bodyguards. She loved her personal space with her son, and having a bodyguard, specially a personal one, was a little surprising.
But then a lot has changed and now she is the CEO of the main branch of the Sterling Corporations. She might highly need this protection.
Grace turned towards Dante before giving him a polite smile and said, "Good morning, Mr Lancaster. My name is Grace. Nice to meet you. I hope that we will work together positively." After all, Grace was Dove’s assistant at work, and they would be meeting and involving quite often.
Dante smiled back at her, and nodded her and replied, "Nice to meet you too, Ms Grace."
Noah who noticed how Grace looked shocked on hearing that Dante was her bodyguard. And it wasn’t only her here, in fact even down there, everyone had mistaken him to be someone else other than a bodyguard.
Is it so that to believe that he was a simple guard! Noah felt a little irked about it. Normally he wasn’t the type of net jealous about or bitter about any other men. But what made Naoh feel gmthis unsettling feeling in his heart was that this man would be around Dove always, and he was one very good looking man, with an undeniable charm.
But Dove wasn’t the type of be charmed by just anyone. Otherwise, Noah himself was also not an average looking person.
Noah was brought out of his jumped thoughts when he heard Senior Sterling cough.
He had a few rough coughs, making everyone some what concerned about him. And Dove asked worriedly when his coughs somewhat settled a little, "Grandpa, are you alright?"
Senior Sterling lightly shook his head and patted his mouth and nose with his handkerchief carefully, before saying, "Hm, I think I am getting tired."
Then he looked at Dove and said, "Dove, dear, can you please ask Joe to come over to the company and help me get home? Till then, I think I would like to rest a little at the lounge."
There was an attached lounge to the office. And Dove nodded her head, "Alright Grandpa, I will call Butler Joe right away."
And Dante said, "Let me help you to the room, Senior."
No matter how much willpower Senior Sterling showed, everyone could see that his health was not doing well, and his age had largely taken over.
