CEO Ethan

CEO Ethan was miffed. Actually, he was livid.

Today, a boy that was just a teen, would be visiting with his brother. What did he think this was? A school excursion? So what if he is the Delatour Heir? He's only 15! What does a 15-year-old know about business? Did he think he could walk in here and then after just observing them for a day or two, figure out what is wrong with the company?

Ethan was frustrated.

He had been trying to find out the cause but to no avail. He knew that sooner or later, the Delatour Corporation wouldn't send a team to audit them. Heads would roll. However, instead of that elite team of people, they send a group of teenager? What a joke.

What he didn't know is the reputation of the person who is sent. He was preoccupied with the company and didn't have time for other thing.

He sighed and shook his head. The thoughts of the rich were truly beyond his comprehension. Did they already regard Company SI as un-salvageable to, thus sent the heir so as not to waste the valuable time of the audit team?

He already could feel that he was the laughing stock. Even Delatour Corporation treated him like a joke.

"Sir?"

A quiet voice broke into his thoughts.

He looked up and saw his assistant looking at him with concern while holding a file.

"Yes, Jean?"

He asked tiredly.

"Are they here?"

"No, Sir,"

She answered.

"They're scheduled to arrive at 9am. It's only 8am right now."

"Fine. Just make sure you're there to greet them when they come,"

Ethan said then asked

"What is it then?"

She placed a file on his table, saying

"These are the financial reports you asked for."

I looked at the file with a frown. I am going to have a long talk with those people in Accounts soon. These files had been delayed for one reason or another. Somehow, he had been so busy that he didn't have time to follow up on it and Jean didn't remind him either.

Were everyone so incompetent or was this the way that they had always been operating?

Unknown to both of them, Alexander was already walking through the doors of Company SI He was dressed to kill, figuratively speaking. First impressions are important, so he donned a tuxedo suit that his parents had gotten for him. His hair was sleeked back and he wore black dress shoes. With a thin blue stripes for the shirt under the suit, he didn't wear a tie. Alex has his own suit and opted to wear black as well, and he wore a tie. All in all, when they walked through the door, they certainly made people stop and stare for a while.

Even this young each one of them gave off this indescribable aura. From their outstanding features, dressed impeccably and the air of regality that oozed from them just took their breath away. It was as if they had literally walked out from a painting and into the building. Despite the fact that they are twins and look alike, they each have a different aura. One is freezing with an expressionless face. The other is given an easy going aura and a charming little smile.

I had this indifferent look on my face as I walked towards the reception desk. I looked all around me in one glance, taking note of the expression of everyone there. It was mostly shock and surprise, with some admiration.

"Interesting. It doesn't look like anyone was expecting us brother"

Said Alex in my head as he neared the reception desk.

"How so. If you heard that some 15 year-old teenager was coming to audit you, what would you do?"

I asked.

"Try to see who this teenager was?"

"Exactly, so here we are as everyone has this expression like we're a surprise to them. They looked curious but it's more out of wondering who we are and what we are doing here. Not curious as to what we look like"

"Maybe they want to keep this a secret"

"Really? How so"?

I answer sarcastically

"Do you are saying that the games are going to begin even now"

I didn't even replied.

" Hello, how may I help you?"

Asked the receptionist as they reached the desk.

Alex took a step forward and said politely, "Alex Delatour to see CEO Ethan"

"Do you have an appointment?"

"Of course,"

Alex replied and he look at her with a frown. Though that was a typical question, the point was that she should have automatically checked the moment his name had been given. Wasn't there a system that she could check or at the very least, wasn't she informed of their arrival? The information should have been given to her already and she should have memorised or known in advance of this. This was simply a waste of time.

"I am sorry, Mr. Delatour but your name is not listed here"

The receptionist said apologetically and politely.

"Are you sure about that?"

Came an icy voice from behind Alex
