Chapter 362 - Did you miss me during lunch?(3)

"I want the head office in the capital even if you open or don't open branches. Harley Corporation and any events from ME will stand higher priority than any other events, And I will not accept ' No ' as a response. ANYTIME , ANYDAY ... Take your time and decide. You guys can leave now." Sky finished saying and stood up.

"Chairman Harley! Your daughter is quite impressive." Liam told to David in a low voice. He expected her to be navie in the business world and thought she may treat everyone amiably.

Rony and Andy stood up too. Rony asked, "Does that mean I have to leave my parents and settle here?"

Sky stopped walking towards David, "There is no such clause." Sky crossed her arms and continued, "It only says you have to settle here. Alone or with parents is your choice... Nothing comes easy."

She strode towards the sofa as she spoke, "Andy is capable of explaining all the clauses. Ask him about your doubts." Before sitting, she again asked. "Anything else?"

Andy was used to her behavior but it took time for Rony to settle in her strict manner. Andy looked at Rony and held his shoulder as he told Sky, "We will get going now. Thank you Ms.Sky"

Sky nodded and both left the office. She sat next to Sam who was still working on his laptop. She was about to talk to David, Sam passed his laptop to her.

She was thinking whom to ask to wait, Sam spoke, "Talk to them. I will get something to drink."

"Thank you, Sam" Sky was relieved and looked at Liam. "Thank you Mr.Jacob." Sky thanked him. He nodded as a response.

"Dad! Now I understand why you were watching news about him every time." Sky told to David and glanced at Sam's laptop.

"President Harley! That's not because of what you are thinking. Its because he looked after me when I was studying." Liam said as the sharpness of his eyes turned gentle.

Sky nodded at him. She knew David helped many people but she never expected Liam to be one of them. "Is that golden rimmed glass to show yourself as cold and officious?" She felt like Gold-rimmed glasses highlighted on his face a lot which attracts attention to his eyes than the complete face.

David laughed hearing her, "Lass! You are right!" That's when a smile crept on Liam's face.

Sam entered with five drinks soon, He gave milk cup to Sky and took his tea, He sat down leaving the tray on the coffee table.

"Thank you! Sam" Sky wanted to laugh at what he did. Sky was about to get up, Liam spoke, "I will take."

Sky nodded. He gave coffee to David and took one to himself. A juice glass was still on the tray, Sky thought he brought extra but the door opened after a single knock. Arlo entered with some snacks.

Liam and Arlo froze looking at each other.

Even though they recovered instantly, Sky noticed it, "You two know each other?"

Sam looked at both men to hear their answers.

"Yes!" Both replied at the same time. Arlo kept the tray which had berries, roasted nuts, and toast.

When Sam was in the kitchen, Arlo entered the floor and heard noise from the kitchen. He thought Sky was inside and went in to see Sam checking each slot. After knowing Sam was searching for tea leaves, he helped him to prepare the drinks and snacks. He just knew there was a guest in Sky's office room but he didn't expect him to be Liam Jacob.

Liam asked Sky cautiously, "President Harley! How do you him?" He knew Arlo Smith never met anybody unless he has to vanish a company but Arlo came with snacks in his hands made him ask in shock and amazement.

"He is my secretary." Sky replied which left Liam stunned and the latter looked at David.

David just gave a nod to him which also meant for him to be quiet. Arlo sat on single-seater and he felt like he was on needles until Liam left with David...

"President Harley, This is my card. If you need anything, you can contact me directly."

Sky took his card and shook his hand before he left with David. Arlo heaved a sigh of relief.

"Chairman Harley! Why President Smith is your daughter's secretary? Is there a problem?" Liam immediately asked after exiting Sky's office. In fact, he was mentally preparing himself to fight back Sigma with Harley if there was really a problem.

David patted his shoulder, "There is nothing like that. He likes my daughter but he doesn't want her to like him for his money and status so he is pursuing her in his ways. He isn't a threat. So relax."

Liam sighed and followed David out. He was even more surprised knowing Arlo liked a girl as everyone in the industry knows he hates women.

Sky who was eating berries, received a message from Andy informing her to watch the news and if there was any instruction for him to follow up. The remote was near Arlo, "Arlo, Please turn on the television."

Arlo nodded and turned on. After reading the headlines, Sky turned grim. Sam looked at her. Arlo's facial muscles stiffened. 

'Sigma is backing Harley Corporation.'

There was a picture taken from the phone where Ryan was in front of David. Ryan had a smile, David had no expression.

One of Harley's clients was in a news studio. He was saying Ryan was very courteous to David which was unlike his personality hence they shipped Sigma with Harley.

"Ryan Wilson, I will chop you off next time if I see you." Sky said in her clenched teeth.

Arlo rubbed his forehead. he would close down any company leeching them but Harley would never do it and he knew Sky never likes it.

Sam looked at Sky who was red due to anger and at Arlo was irked but it was hardly shown on his face.

Sky quickly typed a message and sent it to Andy. By that time, they were indirectly shipping Sky and Ryan.

When Ryan's picture showed on television, Sky hurled a pillow at it, "Brainless Idiot."

Sam burst into laughter seeing her fume and Arlo looking helpless, "President of Sigma will be furious by the news and Ryan Wilson will be pacing around like a cat throwing his fur everywhere."
