Ava sneaks behind them unnoticed as they walked down the corridor. Bruce was on the phone with Mason, speaking in hushed tones as he held a file in his hand. She could see the concentration on his face as he listened to the person on the other end of the line. She couldn’t hear what he was saying, but she could tell that it was something important. He was deep in conversation, not noticing her presence.
She followed him closely, trying to stay hidden and unnoticed. She was curious about what Bruce was doing there and what was in the file he was holding. She knew that whatever it was, it must have been important for him to come to CT wines. She decided to get closer and try to listen in on his conversation, but without being noticed.
Bruce was dressed in a sleek black suit that gave him a sophisticated and professional look. The suit was tailored to fit him perfectly, accentuating his broad shoulders and narrow waist. The suit jacket was single-breasted with a two-button closure and had a regular fit, not too tight or too loose, allowing him to move comfortably. The trousers were straight leg, with a clean crease, which made him look polished and put-together. The suit was made of a high-quality, luxurious fabric, that was smooth to the touch and had a subtle shine.
As she followed him, she could hear Bruce finishing his conversation with Mason. “Thanks Mason, I really appreciate it,” she heard him say. “The money will be transferred to your account soon, just like we discussed.” Ava’s heart sank as she realized that Bruce was there on a business matter, and whatever was in the file he was holding, it must have been important for the company. She couldn’t help but feel a sense of disappointment and betrayal, as she thought he was there to see her.
She knew that she couldn’t let her emotions get in the way of her investigating what was happening with the company, so she decided to follow him discreetly and try to find out more information. She knew that it would be difficult, but she was determined to get to the bottom of what was happening with Quinn Company and find out who was trying to bring it down.
“Hey Mason, thanks for getting this file to me so quickly. I really appreciate it.”
“No problem, Bruce. I know how important this is for the company. I just hope it helps.”Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“I think it will. I’ve been going over it and it looks like we might have found a way to agree on something.”
“I know how much it means to you, Bruce. And I know you’ll do whatever it takes to save it. I’ll do whatever I can to help.”
As Bruce walked down the corridor, he was deep in conversation with Mason on the phone. He was speaking in hushed tones, his voice low and serious “Thanks, Mason. I really appreciate it. And don’t worry about the money, I’ll make sure it gets transferred to your account soon, just like we discussed.”
“Sounds good, Bruce. Let me know if there’s anything else I can do to help.”
“I will. Thanks again, Mason.”
Ava sneaks up behind him, trying to listen in on the conversation unnoticed. She could see the concentration on his face as he listened to Mason on the other end of the line. She tries to get closer to him, but he was so focused on the phone call that he doesn’t notice her presence.
She could hear the urgency and determination in his voice, as he discussed what seemed like important business matters with Mason.
As the conversation progressed, she started to pick up on certain details, and a sense of unease started to grow within her.
Suddenly, she heard something that made her heart drop. Mason’s voice came through the phone, clear as day, “I’ll have the rest of the information by the end of the week, don’t worry, the deal will go through. The company will be mine soon.” Ava couldn’t believe what she was hearing, her heart sank as she realized that Mason was the one behind the sabotage of the company.
Ava was in shock, she couldn’t believe that someone she trusted, someone who worked for the company, would betray her and her family like this. She knew she had to act fast and find a way to stop Mason before it’s too late. She couldn’t let him destroy the company that her family had built from scratch.
Ava couldn’t take it anymore, she burst into the corridor, screaming at Bruce for betraying her. “How could you do this to me, to our company!” she yelled, her voice filled with anger and betrayal.
At the sound of her voice, Bruce jumped, startled by her sudden appearance. His eyes widened in shock, and he quickly ended the call with Mason, shoving the phone into his pocket.
He stood there frozen for a moment, staring at Ava as she approached him, her face contorted with anger and betrayal. He could see the hurt and pain in her eyes, and it made his heart ache. He had never seen her so furious, and it caught him off guard. He was still trying to process what was happening, as she unleashed her wrath on him.
Bruce, startled by her sudden appearance, tried to defend himself. “Ava, please, let me explain,” he said, holding out his hands in a placating gesture.
But Ava was beyond reasoning. “Explain what? How you sold out our company? How you betrayed me and our child?” she exclaimed, her voice rising with each word.
Bruce tries to explain that Mason had offered him the deal because he needed the money. He tells her that he had no choice, that the company was failing, and he needed to do something to save it. He tells her that he never meant to hurt her, that he was just trying to do what was best for the company and for their future.
But Ava wasn’t listening to his explanations, she was too hurt and angry. She felt like her whole world was crumbling down around her, and she didn’t know what to do. She couldn’t believe that the man she loved, the father of her child, would do something like this to her and their company.
