Chapter 11 - Eleven

Thinking that Chris was just joking, Nora left him, to a corner to dial Stella's number.

The call was soon answered.

"Hello, Miss Bromwick", Stella who had a sweet and pleasing voice said from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, Miss yong. I would like to ask a favor from you", Nora timidly said.

"Okay, go on", Stella replied.

Once again, Nora rehearsed the sentence in her head, took a deep breath and began to speak, "Could you please tell me if the chairman will be available tomorrow, precisely at night? My family will be having a banquet, to officially announce and celebrate our collaboration with the Axel Group. I hope your chairman will accept my invitation...", Nora said.

For a short while there was silence, "I am sorry Miss Bromwick, but I can't make such decision on the chairman's behalf. But, I could ask him for you...", Stella replied.

"Thank you so much, I apologize for the trouble caused", Nora said respectfully.

On ending the call, Cliare held her phone as anticipated Stella's reply.

And suddenly, Chris's phone began to ring.

Chris was taken unaware, he scolded him self for not remembering to put his phone on silent. It has to be Stella, calling to ask for his opinion.

He acted like he was answering the phone calmly, "yes?", He mumbled.

Just as expected, it was Stella, "Mr Arthur, the Bromwick Group would be having a banquet tomorrow at night. I am calling to ask if you would like to attend", Stella said.

"Oh, okay, I will...yeah, that's right, bye..", Chris replied and hung up the call.

"These spam calls can be really annoying...", He mumbled. Nora didn't suspect a thing, and soon after her phone rang.

"Hello, Miss Bromwick!", Stella's sweet voice echoed in her ear once again, "Our chairman just accepted your invitation, and so will drop by the venue!", She replied.

"Really....awesome! Thank you so much for your help. Please help me thank your Chairman too..", Nora stood still not believing her ears, and shrieked in excitement. She never would have thought that the chairman would agree to come.

She quickly rushed to Mrs. Bromwick, "Grandma! The Axel Group's chairman has agreed to come to our banquet", Nora said delightedly.

"Really?!", Mrs. Bromwick asked extremely thrilled.

She quickly turned to the family members, "hurry, make all necessary arrangements! Book a luxurious hotel, get the best food and drinks! We are making it big to welcome the Axel Group's chairman!", Mrs. Bromwick ordered.

"Also, invite all the big companies in the Hillsprings, let them know that Axel Group's chairman is coming!", She added.

And almost immediately, the place became busy, with everyone running around and making phone calls.

All members of the Bromwick family was busy, calling top figures and big business partners in the city.

Like a detonated atomic bomb, the news spread all over the city like wildfire!

And just like that all in the Hillsprings knew about the banquet.

The unknown Chairman of the Axel Group would show up at the Bromwick family's banquet tomorrow at night.

Countless inquires about the banquet was responded to by Mrs. Bromwick, who did with a wide smile on her face.

At the moment, Mrs. Bromwick was in ecstasy, she knew that after the banquet, the Wison family will be well known in the Hillsprings.

She chuckled excited, "good job everyone, let's go and prepare for tomorrow's banquet. Dismiss!", Mrs. Bromwick said and returned to her office.

Aaron sheepishly looked around and followed Mrs. Bromwick.

"Grandma, are you really going to make Nora the director?", He asked.

On hearing this, Mrs. Bromwick frowned, "I already a promise to her, why shouldn't I?", She asked.

"You can't make her director!", He whined, "why? She got such a huge contract. What she did was marvelous and outstanding, she deserved it!", Mrs. Bromwick added.

"She wouldn't have been able to that without Harry of the Miller family, he helped her win the contract. I heard he went to her place yersterday, and now the Axel Group signed the contract today. There is no coincidence grandma, I think she must have spent the night with him... Yes Harry Miller", Aaron said.

Mrs. Bromwick suddenly began to grow into rage, "is that true?", She asked.

"Absolutely, Harry went to see Nora last night, look into it, and find out for yourself if I am saying the truth", Aaron replied.

"And grandma, Nora is married. If people should find out, and know that this is how we got the contract with the Axel Group, what would they think of our family? What would be said about you?

Mrs. Bromwick frowned some more frown as she bought the lies Aaron told. She had long known about Harry's feelings for Nora.

And on her birthday, Harry gifted her a 3 to 5 million worth Jade tailsman.

Nora winning a 60million dollar contract now adds up.

On noticing the change in grandma's expression, Aaron hurriedly continued, "of such a shameless woman is appointed as director of the Bromwick Group, it will destroy our reputation! If you must appoint a director, it shouldn't be her, and who ever you are going to appoint should be given credit for the contract as well. A man as it's director, that will be the best choice. It will get rid of gossip!", Aaron adviced.

Still pondering about Aaron's suggestion, Mrs. Bromwick nodded.

She believed almost all of Aaron's lies.

Considering the situation, another director should be choosen to anul rumors and gossips.

If the people become aware that Nora got the ²contract with the Axel Group, as a result of her affair with Harry. She could say that the new director acquired the contract fair and square, and not as a result of Nora's affair with Harry.

Furthermore, Mrs. Bromwick was unfair.

And the truth was that, she didn't like Nora! And to top it, she was hidebound and like a patriarch in thinking. She really didn't like the idea of Nora taking over the influence and power of the Bromwick family. She has to stop that to consolidate the assets of the Bromwick family.

In silence, she had her mind made up, but her thoughts ran wild.

She immediately turned to Aaron, "Aaron, henceforth, you will listen to me! Only do what I tell you to do, and not do anything contrary, understood?", She said coldly.

Aaron pick himself upright expressing loyalty, "Worry not grandma, like a loyal servant, I'll fill your every order. I'll move to what ever direction and you point your finger. And what ever you say, that I will do!", he said.

"Alright", Mrs. Bromwick said and nodded, "Thomasorrow at the banquet, you would be annouced as the new director of the Axel Group. But don't forget, you must be very obedient and faithful. I have the power to raise you up, like wise pull you down!", Mrs. Bromwick said.

Aaron screeched in joy, "don't you worry Grandma! I am going to be a good boy!", He said.
