It had been a long day of waiting. Sitting in this empty office really made Nico think of everything that had lead him to this moment. Looking around the blank walls in silence made him realize that it had actually been a long year of waiting. Around this time eleven months ago, his waiting had just begun. His industrial sized telemarketing company had just sky rocketed into the third largest in the country, and all he had to do from now one was let it run itself. He had gathered what he knew was a bullet proof team that would do everything for him, his dreams of being a "jobless" millionaire had become a reality and yet sitting in his empty office that he hadn't visited in months left him empty.
A loud knock that echoed through the hollow room startled Nico to his feet, and before his thoughts could catch up with him he spat out a loud "Come in". Marina who had been his assistant in the beginning walked in, looking sharp in her gray skirt suit.
"Hey, sorry for the wait, there were some things that needed to be urgently worked out." Marina laughed out. "What did you need Mr. Langdon?" She asked casually, as they were as close as an employee and a boss could get.
He looked around nervously, even though he was the boss of her and everyone in that building, speaking up about anything made Nico tremble a little. "I've been feeling a little disconnected from the company..." Nico trailed off not knowing how to continue his sentence.
Marina left out a little chuckle. "That's great, right? It's what you wanted."
Nico tugged at the ends of his one of a kind tailored sleeves. Noticing himself how insecure he looked he straightened himself up and pretended he was adjusting his suit. "Of course, I just needed to make sure there's nothing I need to get involved with." Nico blurted matter of factly.
"Well Sir, as you put it a year ago, as long as Ryan, James, Nicholas and I are here, the company can function without a single flaw. It's been smooth running since then." She nodded along with her sentence.
