The moment I met you (Chapter 248)

By Nightengale Ben-Onyeukwu  



 Michael lifted his head to look at Chistopher. He furrowed his brows. His aura was cold to begin with, so with furrowed brows which emitted an intense icy aura, Robert didn’t seem surprised.                     

‘I asked you a simple question and you’re mentioning Jessica?’ Michael said with a frosty tone.                                                                                    

‘Please forgive me sir. I was wrong to mention your woman…’                                                                                                                                       

‘Are you born stupid?’ Michael’s tone of voice was arctic that both Robert and Christopher shook with fright. ‘What kind of stupidity made your brains?’                                                 

                   

Michael was prince charming in a typical romance novel, but unfortunately he had changed his fate by fallen in love with a lowly woman, Robert thought.                                                                                                 

‘Let me remind you, you’d better dress properly for today’s function. I know you look good in your dress…’Michael said as happiness started spreading through Christopher’s heart, but it was soon overshadowed by fear when Michael added, ‘but as a branch director you mustn’t dress casually while meeting with the state governor. He’ll think Moon Corporation breed casual men from goat region.’                                            

                    
Christopher stared at him in confusion. Silence fell on the room until Michael glanced coldly at Robert.                                                         

Robert froze for about five or six seconds before understanding Michael’s meaning. He ran out and reappeared after a minute or two with a high-end tan suit with matching tie.                        

‘Sir Christopher you can change into this,’Robert said, handing Christopher the suit.                                                                               

‘Tan suit will be too informal. You don’t have the fitting body to rock the suit. But if I wear it, I will earn an undying respect,’Michael said proudly. He turned to Robert. ‘From the closet, find a navy suit, pale blue dress shirt and dark blue tie.’
