“Congratulations ma'am, you are hired.” the executive manager shook hands with Sophia and Caleb.
Sophie wanted to scream out but had to compose herself, it was a dream come true and she could not wait to share the good news with her parents.
“The contracts would be ready for signing on Thursday, so we would be expecting to see you here before 10:00 am.”
“Okay, I will be here.'' Sophie replied, “would the CEO be here too? '' She wanted to meet the young man that had inherited the company.
“Unfortunately no, ma'am.” the manager replied. Avoiding to spare a glance towards Caleb who had turned red due to Sophie's question.
Both parties dispatched once the meeting was concluded. The elevator ride down to the ground floor was made in silence. Sophie recounted the whole interview and felt proud of herself once again, she was also awed by Caleb who chipped in some ideas when she was overwhelmed. She had underestimated his intelligence and was also grateful that he had recommended and advised her to bid for this contract. The most awesome part of it all was that it was a multi-million dollar contract worth more than any contract her grandparent's business has ever won.
Even though Caleb looked aloof and casual, Sophie felt newfound respect towards him. She wished he would spend more of his time developing himself than playing whatever game he was busy with right now, maybe then he could upgrade himself and gain more respect from his family.
