Chapter 154 - Rich people?

Richards and Emily's place.

Sitting inside a room with a really dark face, Emily was waiting for Richard who had been coming super late from office everyday. 

It had been more than a month since they had spent some quality time together or gone out somewhere. 

As soon as Richard arrived from office, he would change his clothes and enter his study room and continue with his work while she was left alone in the cold bed.

After Martha left her side, Emily had no friends so she couldn't go out and hang out with them when she was bored. She had to stay at home all day doing nothing.

Just then she heard someone unlock the door. 

Wearing her sleepers, Emily rushed out of the room.

….

Downstairs.

Richard had just arrived and was taking off his coat when Emily arrived downstairs.

Glancing at the watch when Emily saw that it was almost half past eleven, she frowned and asked," Why are you coming back so late?"

After pouring a glass of wine for himself, Richard sat on the couch and said," I have been working very hard for this presentation for our new CEO who will be taking over the day after tomorrow. This is a new and a very big project which also involves the Wilson Enterprise. You know this is the first time Wilson and Glory Enterprise will be taking part in a project together? This is like huge." 

" What is so special about that?" Emily asked whose knowledge in business was smaller than the size of an ant's brain.

" You don't understand, the Wilson and Glory Enterprise have been rivals since the day the companies were started. Our CEO and the CEO of Wilson enterprise tend to hate each other and can never conclude or agree on something similar." Richard said.

" Then why are they collaborating now?" Emily asked.

" It turns out that their sons happen to be best buddies. So now the business is falling into their hands, the two friends kept a condition that they will takeover only if there are collaborations between the two companies. Now as they are the only son of their parents, the present CEO's had to compromise." Richard said.

" Oh that sounds interesting." Emily said.

Richard nodded his head and said," This project is going to be huge Emily like the biggest for both the companies and my department has chosen me to represent them and also explain our side presentation to the new CEO. If the new CEO likes my work then I can curry favour from him and get a promotion." 

Emily beamed with excitement and said," Ahh that would be lovely."

" Yes and that is why I am working hard." Richard said.

Emily nodded her head and said," Yes yes you should. Go go freshen up and I'll heat up the dinner."

" You cooked?" Richard asked.

When Emily excitedly nodded her head, Richard said," Let's order take outs." before walking towards his room.

" Richard at least taste the food first." Emily said.

" I am not tasting your horrible food Emily. It makes me sick." Richard said.

Emily sighed and leaned against the couch. She was not a good cook but had been trying very hard to be one. 

When she was dating Kevin, she would cook different kinds of bland things but Kevin would eat it without complaining and used to ask her to keep trying in the future and she would succeed one day. 

According to Emily though Kevin wasn't as rich as Richard but she never felt this lonely when she was dating him.

Though he was far away but he would call her every now and then to check on her. And whenever he was home, he would spend almost everyday with her and would take her out on trips.

…..

Austin mansion.

All prepared to tell Silvia about his family business, Kevin was sitting on the edge of the bed with his legs crossed waiting for Silvia to come back home.

It was already half past half past eleven but Silvia hasn't arrived home though Kevin also arrived just half an hour ago thinking he was late and Silvia would be waiting for him but when Kevin did not see her anywhere, he quickly called her.

When Silvia did not receive his call, Kevin called Lucifer who had been waiting for Silvia outside the hospital since a really long time told Kevin that they were having some kind of a discussion inside but it was nothing to worry about. 

Just then Silvia entered the room frowning and grumbling.

Kevin quickly got up and asked," Babe what happened?"

Passing him his bag, Silvia said," You have no idea who pissed I am right Kevin." 

" Why? What did I do?" Kevin asked.

" Not with you idiot." Silvia said.

" Then what happened?" Kevin asked.

" Today when Jan and I were coming out, I saw this man trying to push an old lady away and was squeezing himself inside the queue. The old lady told him that she had been standing there for a really long time but you know what that arrogant man said?" Silvia asked.

When Kevin shook his head, Silvia said," He said that he doesn't talk to low class people. Ahh what low class? And how can he call someone that? We were so pissed that we decided to complain but when we told the authority about this they said that man is a VIP patient so they will not be able to do anything but they will give some discount to that old lady."

" Ahh does that even make sense? So what if he is rich? If he is rich that doesn't mean he can disrespect anyone he feels like? That is so absurd. Arggg I hate rich people." Silvia said.

Kevin awkwardly scratched his forehead and said," All rich people aren't like that you know? Some are good too."'Like me' Kevin thought but did not say it out loud.

" Rich people are arrogant and only think about themselves. Most of them are like that may be some are good but it's very difficult to find them." Silvia said before entering the washroom.

After placing Silvia's bag on the couch, Kevin dashed on bed and murmured," Forget it Kev let her know on her own."
