Chapter 4: No More
****NEXT DAY****
"Mam, you sent for me?" Asish knocks holding the door open to get attention of his Ceo.
Priyanka Trivedi looks up with an expressionless face " Yes Asish come on in. We need to discuss about the opportunity you and your team missed"
A no - nonsense woman, always to the point, Asish admires her but he couldn't have climbed up this high under such a strict Ceo in such a short time without being equally productive " We don't need to worry about that anymore. I solved it"
The Ceo raised her eyebrows curiously " Is that so. How?"
Asish smile triumphantly " I took our offer to their biggest competetion who happens to hold equal share of market just like them. It's perfectly competitive market and our new friends are very eager to honour our deal as soon as possible"
Priyanka responds with a warm smile " That's what I like about You Asish. You never give up. I will inform the legal department to meet their lawyers to discuss terms and conditions. Your team should spearhead the operation, I promise you my support in the board meeting, it will be just a formality ."
"Thanks for having faith in me" Asish politely responds.
*ring ring ring ring* Asish's phone buzzes.
"Hold on a second Mam"
Asish speaks on the phone " What?"
"mhhmm. Yes you are reading it correctly, I did ask you to buy broomstick. Don't disturb me further on such petty problems" Asish cuts the phone.
" I thought you live a solitary life" Priyanka asks curiously.
" Oh that is a punishment for the man who jeopardise my and my team's position" Asish informs.
Priyanka opens up a bottle of wine behind her desk, office hour is almost over " Want some?"
Asish refuses " No thank you, It dulls my senses,I am still at work"
"Alright. But a broomstick? You are torturing the poor guy" an amused Priyanka comments sipping her wine.
Asish chuckled " It's necessary. He used to study in my college, a senior. Still thinks he holds some kinda authority over me and all his follies will be forgiven just for that."
Priyanka harden her face " Yes people like that must be put in their respective places. I hope he doesn't file a complaint over you misusing your power. "
Asish smiles" A man who didn't able to secure a single promotion since he joined the company knows that out there nobody is gonna give him a job now. One hard look at his C. V will close every single door. "
Priyanka exclaims" How come such incompetent person still alive in our company? "
Asish bares his teeth" Because of my grace Mam It is good to have an errand boy who knows his only hope of survival is you. "
Priyanka laughs" Spoken like a man who enjoys power but does the errand boy is aware of that fact? "
Asish looks at the window" He should have by now but he doesn't. He thinks he is the smartest and most shrewd man alive. He thinks he is using me to stay alive in this company. "
Priyanka smiles" Now that I have noticed how badly he failed, I think he indeed has used you"
Asish " Might that be the case. But no más "
Priyanka raises her glass of wine " Yes, no more then."
Asish raises his emplty hand in air agreeing with Priyanka's gesture.
