Chapter Six- Just The Beginning.
Old man Royal squeezes his eyes and questions,
“And why are you throwing an opportunity given to no one? What seems to be the problem? It doesn’t work the way you assume it to be, there are consequences of leaving this company.”
She sighs and looks in Jacob’s way and her eyes lighten up instantly and Tilda asks,
“Then, can I be the secretary of Mr. Jacob? Mr. Fred and I could never work together. We didn’t start up on a good ground, it will be unwise that we work together. So, do you mind giving me to Mr. Jacob?”
No one is paying attention to the boiling person on the side, his hands are clenched in fist and veins are almost popping out of his perfect face. Just when old man Royal us about to speak, he quips in,
“We start work today and yes I mean that you been my personal secretary, who do you think you are for refusing to work with me?”
She gazes at him and replies with an irritated expression,
“I am Tilda Nti, I am nobody today but I will make sure my descendants will be proud and boastful of my name. Then, they will become somebodies to people around them.”
Old man Royal and Jacob look at her closely a little surprised with her outburst. They look at each other and turn to see the reaction of Fred and they see that he has a blank face and he is looking at the file on the table as if he wasn’t the one arguing in a second past. The old man looks at Tilda and says to her,
“You knew the company’s secret the moment you stepped foot in my office. But I won’t use that against you. Rather, I will give you a month to settle down if you are still uncomfortable, you can leave then after paying ten million dollars only. Please have your seat, the meeting is about starting.”
She turns to the numerous chairs and about to walk towards it but Old man Royal clears his throat and she looks back at him. He signals her with his head towards Fred and says to her,
“You sit beside him and explain those numbers in the file to him. He only knows books but has no practice.”
She nods but then glares at Fred who returns it squarely. Old man Royal smiles and whispers to Jacob,
“It’s going to be entertaining, to watch these two isn’t it? At this age there are a few things that catch my interest and I think this lady, Tilda is interesting, do this, put a secret camera in his room and make sure they work in the same office. I really want to watch this show on my free time.”
Jacob glances at them not sure if he should be doing that but he nods his head finally, the workers start coming in one after the other at the exact allocated time. Tilda takes the file in front of Fred but he takes it from her hands and glares in his way. Then he whispers to her,
“I will make sure you don’t last a week in here, do you have ten million dollars in your account? I bet you don’t. By the time I am done with you, you will be crawling out of this company.”
She sneers and she keeps quiet for the two hours meeting. she feels his foot on her feet pain cruises throughout her body, and she feels like crying out but the meeting is still ongoing. And so, she has no choice but endure it until it’s over.
Two hours later, the meeting is over and everyone is walking out of the meeting room she pulls her leg from the desk stands up right, Tilda looks in his way, anger all over her body her chest keeps rising and coming down. Old man Royale looks in a way and questions,
“ what seems to be the problem dear?? What has he done this time?”
 She looks in his way, And gives him a fake smile, and she shakes her head. She looks at Fred and says to him,
"You may think you’re all that, but allow me to tell you this is just the beginning. I will make sure that, your life is hell in your own company if possible outside this company as well. I wish you good luck."
 She walks out, pulling her left leg after her right leg. They all watch as she walks out of the room, old man Royale looks in Fred’s way with a huge smile on his face and says to him,
“I seem have chosen the right person for the right job, I hope you have a nice time working here.”
They stand up and leave him sitting on the chair he looks at the numerous chairs in front of him and he shakes his head a smile appears on his face and he sees himself,
“ No matter who you are or what you do, people will look down on you. But I am ready to take the chances and do my best after all I deserve an honor as well. I won’t play around with business after all it’s all mine and what is yours, you take good care of it. As for you Tilda, let’s see how far you can go with revenge.”
He looks down as he walks out of the room, thinking about what he should be doing and what he shouldn’t. As soon as his feet get out of the room, he feels a painful ache in his left foot. He looks down at his legs and picks the painful foot in his hands and he starts cursing out of pain. Just then, he hears a laughing sound by his side, he looks at the person and sees that, she is busily holding her stomach and laughing out.
 She looks at him and finally says to him,
“ I never knew someone like you could be a crybaby, are you a fathers boy or a mummy’s boy? Have fun, just as I said this is just the beginning, Fred royal.”
