THE BILLIONAIRE’S PERFECT MATE

On her way back to the office, Ellie’s phone rang and it was Clinton on the line.

‘Wow, I salute you. You are such a goal getter’, Clinton said, before Ellie could say anything.

‘I was just about calling you. Collins agreed to the collaboration. I am so happy right now’, Ellie said with excitement as she couldn’t hide her joy.

‘I just got informed by dad and which is the reason I am calling you. I heard the collaboration will be finalized on my birthday. What a great day that would be. But, I sincerely admire your courage and determination. You are one special being, I must say’, Clinton said.

‘It’s all thanks to you. If not for you, I wouldn’t have had the idea of getting close to Natalia. I owe you one’, Ellie said, smiling.

‘My phone has been buzzing since. Sophia is aiming for my life right now. How did she get to know about the collaboration?’, Clinton asked.

‘I was about asking you that. She came over to our meeting place and she was there when Collins made his intention known. I had even thought you were the one that informed her of my whereabout. I had vouched to get back at you for betraying me’, Ellie said.

‘I can’t betray you darling. She might have trailed you. You need to be wary of her as she can go to any length to bring you down. Don’t feel too relaxed as she might be somewhere, scheming a plan’, Clinton advised Ellie.

‘I know she wouldn’t give up that easily. I will be careful of her like you said. So, how do you plan on cutting her off your tail?’, Ellie asked Clinton, feeling concerned.

‘I will find a way out of it. Just make sure you are safe. Till then’, Clinton said, hanging up on Ellie.

As Ellie alighted from the car and made her way to Edward’s office, she couldn’t wait to see Edward and share the good news with him. Halfway to Edward’s office, she met who she never expected to be at the company as he rarely came to the company. There he was, Daniel alongside the Board of Directors of the Company. Ellie greeted them and was about going her way, when she was stopped by Daniel.

‘Do you mind having a discussion with me, Miss Ellie?’, Daniel asked, making Ellie who was already leaving halt. Daniel motioned for the Board of Directors to go ahead while he had a discussion with Ellie.

‘Hope you are progressing really well on our deal? How far have you gone with it?’, Daniel asked.

‘Collins has agreed to the collaboration. The agreement will be signed next week at his son’s birthday party’, Ellie said with confidence.

‘Really? What a good news to hear on such a good day!!!!!! You have done really well’, Daniel said smiling at Ellie, not able to hide his happiness.

‘Thank you’, Ellie responded.

‘Keep me updated on how everything progresses. Edward will be leading the collaboration’, Daniel said, walking away.

‘When will the divorce take place?’, Ellie asked, afraid that Daniel would go back on his words. Daniel looked at Ellie for few seconds and afterwards, motioned for his guard who was a few steps away from them to come over.

‘Get in touch with the Attorney. Tell him to process Sophia and Edward’s divorce’, Daniel said to his guard, Bill, who immediately called the Attorney and relayed Daniel’s directive. Ellie stood still, shocked by what had just happened. She was happy, no doubt but everything came too sudden. She had always wished for the divorce to happen but she never knew it would be that fast.

‘You have made my day today and so, I must also make you happy by granting your request. More so, I keep my promises’, Daniel said, walking away.

With joy in her heart, Ellie headed to Edward’s office. On getting to his office and setting her eyes on him, she threw herself at him, hugging him as tightly as she could.

‘What’s the occasion about? You seem to be in a really good mood today’, surprised Edward asked.

‘Can we just remain like this for few minutes? I just want to feel your warmth’, Ellie said, resting her head on Edward’s shoulder. After few minutes, she finally let go of Edward.

‘So, will you tell me why you are so happy now?’, Edward asked, showing interest in what Ellie was about to say.

‘Firstly, Collins agreed for a collaboration’, Ellie yelled with joy.

‘Collins did? How did you get to meet him? Thought you went to meet Natalia?’, Edward asked, confused. Ellie took her time to narrate everything that had transpired to Edward to clear his confusion.

‘Sophia did that?’, Edward shouted on getting to know that Sophia was also there.

‘Yes, she did. She almost ruined everything but thank God Natalia intervened. I am so happy right now’, Ellie said, giggling.

‘You sure are. I am proud of you babe, you did it’, Edward said, running his hand through Ellie’s hair.

‘So, what’s the second reason you are happy because you said firstly the other time?’, Edward asked, raising his eyebrow.

‘Daniel agreed to your divorce with Sophia’, Ellie said, yelling.

‘He did?’, Edward asked, surprised.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

‘I met him on my way here and told him about the collaboration. Right in front of me, the Attorney was called to start your divorce process. I can finally have you all to myself’, Ellie said with excitement.

‘These are good news. Today seems to be such a beautiful day. You deserve a good treat for a job well done. Do you mind going on a date tonight?’, Edward asked, getting naughty.

‘I am all in’, Ellie said, winking.

Everything was going perfectly well and the necessary preparations towards the collaboration were being made. The sketch designs requested for were made by the designer with whom Edward had gotten in touch with. The designs were submitted to the Fashion Team of the Oswell Fashion Group and which al were approved as they all were unique sketches and designs. Sophia wouldn’t give up and acknowledge the fact that she had been defeated. She kept on looking for what to use against Ellie to bring her down.

Three days to the collaboration day and Clinton’s birthday, Sophia met with the man who would change everything. The one who had the answers to all the questions she had been asking about Ellie. The one who will solve all her riddles and bring about Ellie’s downfall.

‘Hello, I am Sophia. It’s nice meeting you and I look forward to having a successful collaboration with you’, Sophia said, facing the man seated in front of her.

‘Hello, I am Kevin. Our successful collaboration will depend on what you have to offer’, Kevin said, smiling.
