Chapter 149: THE NEW CEO 2
Alanis sat on the edge of the bed, scrolling through the news on his tablet after a quick conversation with Gus about the latest office updates. The sound of the closet door opening drew his attention, and when he looked up, the sight before him stole his breath.
Harlow stepped out, her movements graceful yet unhurried. The soft light from the window framed her figure, highlighting every delicate detail. Her navy blue suit hugged her in all the right places, exuding both confidence and elegance, while the subtle click of her heels against the marble floor was like a rhythm only she could create.
For a moment, Alanis forgot to breathe. He couldn’t look away, now it was his turn to stare at her making her a little nervous.
All there was in his head was regret. He felt like dealing with himself for not noticing this beauty before. How had he been so blind to this? To her?
Harlow wasn’t just beautiful in the way that turned heads. She was breathtaking in a way that stayed with you, leaving an imprint that lingered.
"Enjoying the view, my Demon? Should I strike a pose, or is this already perfect for you?" She said to see him smile. The type that reached his eyes. Alanis knew she had been dying to use his words at him and this was indeed the perfect time.
"Save the poses for our bedroom exercises." It took Harlow two seconds to understand what he meant and eyes him stylishly.
"In your dreams." She said.
"You seem to be ready boss, let’s go together then." He said stretching his hands for her, but as always, she ignored him and started walking away. Alanis smiled at her action and followed closely behind her.
Ava and the other maids who saw their master and madam walking down the stairs all stopped their activities to stare at them. Both people are indeed a couple you would never ignore. They weren’t just good-looking, but they had a powerful aura even they were unaware of.
Alanis and Harlow stepped out of the Villa and into the black car waiting for them. In no time, the chauffeur drove off.
.
.
At exactly 8:00 AM, a sleek black car pulled up to the grand entrance of Hamilton Corp, flanked by four other black convoys. The workers as well as everyone in Halkhalls have been waiting for the announcement of the new CEO. It seems now is the right time, as Alanis Hamilton has finally arrived.
The guards in the convoys all stepped out of their cars, each person blocking the reporters from coming close to the car.
Alanis’s imposing figure was seen stepping out of the car, exuding his usual aura of authority.
But wait...
He isn’t alone...
He’s with someone...
A she?
Is that Harlow Blackwood?
Was Alanis stepping down as the CEO and also announcing his relationship with Harlow Blackwood?
A collective gasp rippled through the crowd. The murmurs turned into a frenzy. The reporters surged forward, microphones and cameras at the ready, desperate to capture every detail. Who was she to him now?
They were all easily pushed aside by the guards as both people walked through but that didn’t reduce their desperation, as they wanted to know not only about the company’s new CEO but also about Alanis’s personal life.
Who has he decided to spend the rest of his life with between the two sisters?
Was it Harlow the useless whore and his ex-wife who embarrassed him, or her sister Claudia Blackwood. The star of the family and brain behind the recent accomplishment of the Blackwoods.
Who was Alanis going to choose?
"Mr Hamilton!
Alanis held his wife’s hands as they stepped in together. Flashes of light sparkled on Harlow’s face, something she was never used to. Her palms were clammy, and her heart raced as she clung to Alanis’s hand like a lifeline.
She has never been so nervous in her life and her only comfort being the man walking in with her.
She had no idea why she felt safe with him. It wasn’t until Gus approached them that Harlow realized she’d been squeezing Alanis’s hand so tightly.
The small man stared at their hands and she quickly pulled her hands from his. He has not been happy about his boss’s decision lately. Giving the company to someone who has no idea how to run a business was barbaric. It seems Alanis doesn’t care about his father’s sweat and hard work.
Now he believes the saying that goes, men turn to fools when they’re in love. No matter how tough his boss seemed in the past, it only took a beautiful woman to turn him into nothing but a houseboy.
"Good day madam, Sir." Gus greeted with a deep bow. "The board of directors are waiting for you. Please come this way." Gus said politely leading them both inside the building.
He had been the one to warn Alanis against the reporters at the entrance of the building and told the man to use the back door, but he had no idea why his boss decided to use the entrance.
The workers in there both stared at their boss and his ex-wife, the one who visited the company all through the period she was engaged to Alanis. Harlow has done a few things that might leave a bad impression on her for life. But she could care less.
That was the old Harlow, this new Harlow wasn’t her to play.
A few women in there envied her, while others just stared at her in shock. They haven’t seen anyone new walking in here today, did Alanis Hamilton do all of the "stepping down" stuff for clout? They wondered.
It would be so cheap of him if he actually did that because it would not only make him look stupid, but he would also lose valuable customers for the company.
At exactly, 9 am, after the brief meeting with the board. Harlow was finally crowned the new CEO of Hamilton Corp.
The news was immediately sent to the media and to all of the workers who were stunned and speechless.
