Aaron's POV (Edited)

"I will reach the office in an hour. I need the files till then."

I informed my assistant on the other hand of the phone. He responded in affirmative before I cut the call. I have successfully be able to convince Mr. Mitchell to work with me.

It has not been easy considering how picky he is in his choice of business. Mitchell's are a big name in the business industry and every other company wanted to work with him.

I have always wanted to work with him because it will be great for my company too. I had made sure that Mr. Mitchell will be satisfied.

Cracking a deal with him was my aim since so long. I have worked really hard the past few years trying my level best to secure a deal with him. Now that I have been successful, I would stop at nothing to achieve what I want.

I wore my blue coat before grabbing my wallet and placing my phone in the pants pocket. I exited my room and made a beeline to the dining area..

~~~~~~~

As I reached the dining area, it was empty fortunately. I don't like company. Especially of my family. I sat down on the head chair before I heard the mild footsteps approaching.

Ms. Jill came into my sight and she asked in her polite manner

"Good morning, Aaron. Did you sleep well?"

Ms. Jill had been working for us since maybe over twenty years. She was hired here in her mid twenties and since then she had been working for my family. She is such a sweet lady and always adorned a welcoming smile on her face.

Ms. Jill is more than a maid to me. She is like a mother figure to me when my own mother ditched me for her stupid kitty parties. Where she would get the chance to flaunt her money and fake beauty.

I smiled in her direction before saying

"Of course, I did."

She smiled before saying

"I'll bring your breakfast in a second."

I nodded my head and she disappeared again into the kitchen. I sighed and opened my phone. I scrolled down some before answering to some unanswered emails. I was enjoying my own time when the peace was disturbed by the least expected voice

"You're again sitting there?"

Came into the view, James Atkinson. I looked up and raised my eyebrows at him. Dressed in his usual unpleasant choice of clothes, there he was staring at me with an annoying look.

I don't care how you look at me, James!

I answered uninterested

"I'm only sitting where I supposed to be."

I could hear him taking a deep breath probably to control his rage. But I didn't pay any heed to him and remained engrossed in my work. Again, his annoying voice was there to ruin the tranquil setting of silence

"Do you think you're the head of this house?"

His voice was laced with sheer mockery. I looked up once again before answering again uninterested

"Considering that I am the owner of the house, I'm very much am."

His jaw tick and he clenched his fists to control his anger. I only passed a smirk in his direction. Another shrill voice resonated in my ears
