Thread: Business as Usual {Niksis x Ms Catailia}

A genuine smile formed on his lips as he caught on to her trying to use the biggest word she could think of. It was true, he really didn't seem to show as much care for his company as he did himself. And truth be told, he would much rather be in bed wit the two twins than sit here. That said, Troy was a learned man. Though mostly because of his father. When he was young, his father had forced upon him the best education money could buy, even going as far as throwing the poor boy into Harvard. Any young businessman's dream, yet Troy had taken it lightly, if at all. However due to his quirky nature and attention to detail, he always seemed to get the answers right when asked. And when presentations were to be made, reports were to be handed in and eventually exams, he close to aced them. However due to is extravagant lifestyle, this had kinda faded into oblivion as attention was brought to his winning smile and beautiful face. As such, he fully understood what she was saying and had caught on to what she was trying to do, it was fine though, he flirted with her, she subtly insulted him. It was a weird relationship in his mind. And he really did read all mails sent his way, carefully. Every single report, suggestion and presentation. All being read carefully, however he always had something get in the way before he could respond. Whether it was a woman he had brought back home, drink or one of his darker past times, he never got around to replying to them. Fifteen minutes? Well, I guess we better hurry then. Troy said with a confident smile on his lips. Sure, he knew very little about what his company actually did however, in a drunken haze of last night, he had decided to try and change that knowing full well it won't happen overnight. And he knew that Sophie would enjoy every single second of it, seeing him stumble around in the dark. Hopefully, he could use his good looks and winning charisma to get through it. Taking the papers given to him, Troy glanced them over and took to memory as much as he could. He understood the words just fine, the numbers and graphs. But he lacked the context of it. She might as well have given him a large piece of papers with numbers on them, it made just as much sense in the moment. However, in an attempt to try and convince the brunette that he actually cared, if only a little, he looked through all of the papers before placing them in the portfolio she had delivered the rest of the reports in. Very well, let's go see what these scientists have to say. Troy said as he motioned for her to lead the way. He knew where his office was, that one was easy, top floor. But he had no idea what was on the other floors, he really didn't go there unless he really had to. Which he often didn't since he had Sophie. So making the wiser decision, he decided to follow her instead, knowing full well that she knew everything and everyone. Company morale? Isn't that what I pay HR to deal with? Very well, inform Marie down at the treasury that each employee will receive a five percent bonus next month for a job well done. he said, knowing full well the impact money could have on people. Sure, it wasn't a longterm solution, but he needed to take one step at a time. At this point, he was like an infant learning to walk. He could crawl, that was what he had Sophie for. But actually walking, that would require time. Troy followed the brunette through the massive building of his company. The RnD department was on the eleventh floor, where as his office was on the twentieth. The ride was slow, and while the elevator stopped on the occasional floor in between, none of those who stepped into it seemed to greet Troy. Of course, he didn't blame them. He was rarely around and the average employee probably didn't know who he was. However once they reached the science department, they all stood ready. Eager to finally get a chance to present their findings to the CEO of the company. One of the scientists, a younger man seemed giddy, of course, he had all the right to be giddy, if their research proved tight, they might just have developed the cure for an ailment that plague a large part of the people of the world. While not as impactful as a cure to Cancer, it would touch almost as many people, if not more. Eager to get this over with, though also slightly curious, Troy moved to sit down in one of the chairs that had been placed for him specifically Alright, show me what you've got. You have fifteen minutes to convince me. Troy said as he crossed his legs and learned back into the chair. It wasn't a test, he had just seen in the movies that's what important bosses says to their employees, so he figured he'd try it. Fifteen minutes.... Got it. the giddy scientist said, not having expected such a blunt statement from a man who was rarely around. Though eager to show his findings, the man quickly turned on the projector and began going through the scientific process of the formula that they had created. Information that, while he understood the words used, didn't matter for Troy. The only real reason he was here, was to try and impress Sophie with how much he cared. The presentation was long, the longest fifteen minutes he had experienced. However to be fair, by the end of it they had even managed to convince Troy that this thing might be a success. Mulling over the information he had been given, making sure to drag it out for his own amusement, Troy eventually turned to Sophie and nodded Sounds solid, see to it that this gets pressed for approval and mass production gets started. Something told him that even if he had not approved it, she had probably gone ahead and done it in his name. Not that he would have minded, as long as it proved a success. However this was just another attempt to impress his assistant. Something he even proved as he learned over and whispered Impressed yet?
