Nicholas is quite efficient in getting things ready, as Almond already resumed work as soon as the day brightened. Being a no-nonsense CEO himself, he couldn't tolerate any form of laziness or laid-back attitude. He believed in setting the bar high and being a role model to his employees.
He listened to Nicholas report about the day's schedule for both his official and unofficial matters, as he is the one that practically handles any of his matters. I'll need you to schedule a blind date with the young Miss of the Cole family and let me know when she'll be comfortable with meeting up so everyone can be at ease with this whole marriage saga, Almond interrupted.
Alright, sir, I'll get on it and do as you say, Nicholas replied. Sir, where do you want the blind date to be set up? I'll make proper arrangements for it, sir. He continued to ask
That'll be wherever Miss Cole wants; just let her decide where she'll love to meet up so you can make the arrangement. She might not be comfortable with meeting up at Rihanda; once she knows it's mine and with her level of thinking and doubting, she might even think it's a setup.
Okay, sir, I'll do as told. The board meeting will be in the next few hours. Are there any changes you'd love me to make? Nicholas asked. No, there's not. Just pass on the message that I won't be meeting up with anyone until after the board meeting. Also, tell the secretary to make me a cup of coffee with the right amount of ingredients; no mistake will be tolerated. You can go.
Nicholas got out after being dismissed to fit on his young master's order; he decided to give a call to Miss Cole to know when she'll be available and also make proper arrangements for the meeting place for him not to get on his young master's nerve.
He searched through his information to get her contact, dialled it, and waited for her to pick it up, and indeed she didn't pick up, just as if she already knew who was calling her. He made three more attempts before the call was finally answered: Hello. May I know who this is, please? Jayden voiced sound across the phone.
Hello ma'am, Nicholas is on the line calling on behalf of Mr. Jones Almond, your husband-to-be. I'm his personal assistant. He'd like me to enquire when you have time for a proper meetup or probably a blind date and where you'd like it to be. I'm sorry, but I think there's a mix-up somewhere. Although my parent currently arranged a marriage for me, I haven't accepted, nor do I remember meeting up with the mysterious candidate, so will you please explain how you got my contact?
Ma'am, we really do mean no harm. I mean, Mr. Jones got your contact legally, although not through you, but I also believe knowing him is one of the reasons for setting up this blind date so you guys can get to know each other and how to go about this marriage thing without you guys having a bad impression of each other, Nicholas convinced Jayden.
It's okay, anyways. I believe you guys are not different, and you'll also side with him as your boss. I don't know if I'll be available yet, but I go through my schedule and get my assistant to pass across the message to you with the intended location. Jayden waits and hangs up.
Nicholas heaved a sigh of relief as he shook his head towards Jayden's character, believing more about the information he gathered on her; he wondered how she and his young master are going to get along.
