THE CEO AND ME!

Kian was on his way to home when Madison knocked before him.

"What is it Madi?? Look if you are here to lecture me about what happened in there..."

"No no...I m anything but glad you did that. "

Madison interrupted him right away making Kian stare at her amusingly. He had told her about what had happened to Tinsley so she knew about it all.

"That last line was hit by all means. He deserved it. "

Madison commented making Kian smile at her. It was a rare occurrence to see Kian Wilson smiling but whenever he did, it made him look ethereal. Madison thought.

"So what is it then. Why are you here??"

Kian asked, folding his hands. Madison parted her eyes off of his face to tell him what she was to tell him.

"Valeria called. She wants to meet you at her house."

"Did she know?"

He implored. It was of course obvious he was going to hear a bunch lot for denying the deal with the Herrington from his business-minded aunt.

"She knows. I did not tell her."

Madison confirmed his suspicion, raising her hands up in surrender indicating she had nothing to do with it.

"Well, I better get going then."

Kian said, moving past Madison who told him that his driver was ready with the car in the front yard.

_________________________________________

Kian had no idea how he was going to explain to Valeria his reason behind not accepting to seal the deal with the Herrington Oil Co.

When it came to business, his aunt was only profit motive minded. She would not understand the value of moral conscience of him rejecting the deal as in her eyes this partnership would have yielded their company with so much value money.

In few minute times, the Mercedes stopped before the front yard of the mansion where Valeria Wilson resided all by herself with a staff of about a hundred or more people working under her.

The butler in the front greeted him when he got out of the car. The driver drove it off to the parking lot on the right-hand side.

"Madam is ready to meet you in her study."

The butler said, directing Kian to where the study was. Kian thanked him and headed straight to there, crossing the enormous hall on his way which was empty.

Kian took a deep breath before knocking on the door and heard a fibble, ' come in ' so he pushed the door inside and got inside, closing the door behind.

"Valeria?"

"About time, don't you think you should address me as Aunty?"

Valeria smiled, turning back to look at her nephew. She was watching the view of her garden.

"Is that why you called me?"

Kian implored, rubbing his nose, walking forward and taking a seat on the black leather sofa. Valeria joined him.

"No. I have more pressing matters to discuss with you."

"I bet you do."

Kian replied, accepting the cup of coffee Valeria handed it to him. She was never to talk with anyone before giving them a refreshment.

"Why did you.."

"Look before you ask me why I rejected the business with Herrington, it had to do with a code of moral conduct which you might not understand right now...but I promise you that I will clarify it all to you later."

Kian interrupted Valeria even before she could complete her question, silencing his aunt who only waited until he was finished.

"By moral code of conduct, you mean Josh abusing the woman whom you are looking after..."

Kian was a bit taken aback by what his aunt just said. He could only think of how did she come to know?? Was it Massey???

"You thought of hiding, keeping things from me?? You know that it's better not to do it because I always know things, Kian Wilson."

Valeria let out, standing up, angered by the thought of how because of a stranger, her own nephew started hiding things from her.

"I never meant to hurt your feelings by doing so..."

Kian muttered, bending his head down to look at the neatly cleaned tiles.

"I know you would not have ever only if you knew what the Rutherford's did to you and your dead mother."

That got Kian to stand up from his seat abruptly, glaring at Valeria. What did she mean by that?? He thought

"What are you saying, Valeria??"

"What is the connection between the Rutherford's and my mother's death?"

"You always avoided talking about this topic...then why bring it now??"

Kian fired questions after questions at his aunt who just continued to glance at him, without speaking out one word out.

"I avoided it for your good. I do not want you to go back to that dark era ever again. You do not know how hard it was for me to pull you out of that black hole of grief..."

Valeria asserted, with a stern voice, breathing high.

"...only to see your shelter and bed the enemy's daughter."

"I m not bedding her for Christ's sake. And enemy's daughter?? What the hell do you even mean by that??"

Kian shouted back, feeling accused by his aunt.

"Do not shout at me, you boy. Know your place. All I have ever done is for you...you are my centre of attention so it's my sole right to look after you when you are heading to a wrong path....do you understand??"

Valeria glared at Kian, screaming back with the same intensity. For the best of the situation, Kian decided to keep mum.

He was aware of the fact that his aunty was angry and it was no use arguing with her, for the respect sake.

"She is not right for you, Kian. She is a seductress, roaming around your condo with revealing dresses...spending your money....she is not after you but your wealth...I have known her family...they would do anything to maintain their life living in riches...Josh is gone, so she is here with you..."

Valeria elaborated, walking closer and patting her nephew's shoulder, trying to calm him down.

Kian did not say another word or waited to hear one more, he just walked away from the hall leaving his aunt stunned.
