We Can't Keep Meeting Like This Romane & Geschichten

Celeste mumbled beside me, and it snapped me out of my thoughts. "Exactly the same thing I feel…" We both waved and blew kisses to the little princess inside the car as Hayden drove off. "How are you today? You looked tired." Celeste asked me. "A little tired. Titan wasn’t in the mood to talk." "Maybe we should cancel this meeting and just stay home to rest." "No. The people are expecting us there. We can’t just back out at the last minute." "Okay. I’ll just get my purse, and we can go."

Rosalyn: “Call off all of my meetings, for the rest of the evening,” I said to my assistant. She looks horrified to hear this. “But ma’am we have already scheduled a crucial meeting with the clients and we cannot afford to miss it if we cancel it now, we cannot schedule another one for at least 3 months.”

“Looks like you both woke up on the wrong side of the bed.” “It’s twelve noon, idiot. Some of us woke up earlier than that.” She shot him a glare. He raises both his hands in surrender muttering something about only wanting peace. I down my third drink before walking away from the bar and going to the living space of my office. We haven’t had a meeting in two weeks, all of us are busy with other things. But we had important things to discuss. I would have canceled this too if it wasn’t important. There was no way out for me.

"How are you going to attend without Richard knowing? He is home now and will want to know where you are going." I stared at him, the full weight of the situation landing on me. "I don't know," I admitted honestly. "I could use the animal rescue excuse again, but a conference that lasts several days? He will never believe that." "We could postpone," Alex suggested. "Wait until he travels again." "But what if he does not?" I asked. "What if he stays home for weeks? Months? Do we just put everything on hold and wait?" Alex did not have an answer.

"We need to be very careful." I nodded, "that's what I wanted to say. Until we both get the alpha position, we need to be careful. I know it's going to be painful but let's meet at the neutral grounds only once a week. The days will vary because if we have a fixed day of the week, someone can easily figure out our routine.

“No. I’ve been booted out of my house. Katie told me I can’t miss my meeting today, which I think I could get it rescheduled if I need to, but she won’t allow it. So, here I am.” He stares at me for a moment. “You don’t look or sound too pleased with her decision. I understand what you are thinking, but I must admit, I’m glad you are here. I didn’t want to have to reschedule the meeting again. You have already postponed it twice. I don’t think the third time would be the charm with him.” I sigh. “Luckily, we don’t have to find out. Is there anything I should address first?”

“Who are we asking for the evidence and when is the meeting holding? The earlier the better. We have to make sure we cut her tails before they start barking at us with no respect.” “Sadly,you are right. I would suggest the meeting to hold tomorrow. Right now, we are all tired and we still have a lot on our plates to attend to. Plus we cannot call for another council meeting to hold now not after everything that just transpired. We will hold until the next day. Lucian should have recovered massively as well.” I give them reasons why we need to hold this meeting the next day. Personally, I am beyond exhausted. I want to drop down to my bed and have a good rest. The whole thing has stretched me

And he only talked to me about it because we did business in the past. “Why aren’t you going with them? I thought this was a business for the three of you,” I said lightly. It was a way of starting a conversation with Mr. Gerald. “Yes, it is, but being that we are just recently took over this company, we came to a conclusion that in the next one year, we would not all be going out of the company for meetings. Two have to go while the third person stayed back, and we take turns at it,” he explained extensively.

At some point, we had to accept that maybe Dion had given up, moved on, found some other obsession to fixate on. At some point, we had to try to live normally. "I have a board meeting Thursday evening," Aldric said to me the next day. "First in-person meeting in over a month. I've been pushing them back, but this one can't be rescheduled." "Go," I said immediately. "I'll be fine here with Sebastian and security. It's just a few hours." "Are you sure? I can still try to…" "Aldric, go to your meeting. Adrian and I will watch television and practice breathing techniques. We'll be completely boring and safe."

All I did was fix my gaze on the screen of my phone while hoping everything ended. As soon as possible. “Uhm—” Mr. Smithfield coughed. “I thought it was important that we hold a meeting and talk about what has been happening since the week began.” He announced. I nodded, very slightly, so that he didn't even notice. “Knight, Richard and Sia.” Together, we looked up. “Yes?” I answered on behalf of us all. “I want everyone to pay attention.” He begged. “Let your phones be. For now, mm?”
