CHAPTER 74:HERE FOR MYSELF.

All the board members have arrived,they were waiting for the interim CEO then the meeting will commence.

After waiting for almost half an hour Mr Mukhongo entered accompanied with his secretary who was carrying files.

"Ladies and gentlemen l am sorry that l am late,lets start the meeting." He said as he sat on the reserved seat of the CEO in the board room. Everyone was quite for a moment until Mr Mwangi raised his hand to open with the Agenda of the Meeting.

"Our main Agenda Mr CEO, was to know who is taking over the CEO seat since you are an interim CEO, so l was suggesting that since Miss Bombwe is here and the only heiress of these company she can take over now."

"Yes l think that's right"

"Yes she should take over now we have waited for long"

"It's her right"

"The other m mber raised his hand and said. "She cannot just take over like that, remember the will was read and the Company was left without anybody to inherit,this means their is something we don't know" he sat down raising questionable looks from fellow members.

"Mr Mwangi stood and said,"that's right,what you said is absolutely right, but sir without fear of contradiction,no one has came outside to claim the company,that leaves Miss Bombwe the right person to head it."

"Mr Mwangi do you have hidden needs,you tend to stand up for her, don't you think the interim CEO is also eligible to be the CEO? remember Mr Bbwe was his brother" Mr Wanyonyi said.

"So what are you insinuating?"

"I think it will be fair it we vote, let's vote between Mukhongo and Miss Bombwe. Let's vote for the new CEO.Because in my opinion they are all fit for the position. Both are close relative to Mr Bombwe."

"I second you,if Mr Bombwe wanted her daughter to take over him after his dead he could have written that in the will"

"Yes that's right"

"Let's vote"

"Yeah, but she is my suitable candidate for the CEO seat"

....

Mr Mukhongo was quite,he didn't bother what will be decided because he already know who will take over. 

"Uncle, why are you so quite?l thought that..."

"Ivana let the board decided, l will accept the result and the outcome and you too be ready to accept"

"Uncle...

"Let's Move outside and vote" Mr Mwangi said as he clapped to capture their attention. They moved outside leaving Ivana with her Uncle. Mr Mukhongo continued seating in his chair without any care in the world.

'How can he say like that l thought he will stand with me. He already have some inheritance from my dad and now the company' she thought as she paced up and down in the board room. 'This only means one thing My uncle have vicious plan about this company.'

***

"YOU BETTER HURRY UP AND COME,THE BOARD HAS DECIDED TO VOTE."

"I knew it, l knew that this was going to happen." She picked her cell phone and called someone "hurry meet me at Luhyahood dream company now" she picked her handbag and instructed the driver to take her to the company.

****

After fifteen minutes the board of members started coming in one by one. So this is what the board have decided. The election was fair,clear and transparency. We had decided that.....

The door flew open as Mrs Wechuli entered a companied with her lawyer. Mr Mwangi stopped talking as all the mbers were surprised with the sudden entry of a foreigner.

"What's the meaning of this, can someone explain to me what is going on" the room was silent you can hear the heartbeats of the members.

Ivana was so happy when she saw her mother in-law. She cleared her throat as she stood from her seat and said. "I am so sorry for the sudden entry of them, but she is my mother in-law, l think she is here to support me. But don't worry l will talk to her you can go on." She said as she pulled her eat behind.

Mr Mukhongo was smirking when  Ivana was speaking. He didn't know that some of the board mbers saw him.

"Mum, what are you doing here,you could have waited for me in the reception" she murmured enough for her to hear.

"I am sorry daughter in-law, l am not here for you l am here for myself" She said loudly making the board members look at them. Even Mr Mukhongo turned to look at her pretending that he was not aware of her presence.

"What do you mean Mum,you said l should count on you incase of anything"

Mrs Wechuli ignored her as she took few steps in front and threw the document she was holding on the table. "How dare you hold a meeting without My knowledge"

"Hey hey Madam who are you, what is your position in this company?" Mr Mwangi said. He was one of the board members who can't accept indimidation from anyone. He can't allow bullying yet he had a mouth to defend himself and others. That's what he was trying to do at that time.

She didn't answer them as she continued yapping and yelling at them. She being unprofessional infront of them.

"I am going to sue all of you, for going behind my back and do this!are you doing this because l am a woman?" 

What she had achieved what she wanted,putting fear in them and using manipulation. Everybody in the board room was silent even the ever talking Mr Mwangi didn't say anything. When it comes to law women are always favoured.

"Mrs Wechuli calm down,and explain to us the meaning of these documents" Mr Mukhongo said.

"Go ahead and read them yourself" she said leaning back in her chair that was brought by Mr Mukhongos' secretary.

Mr Mukhongo and Mrs Wechuli secretly glazed at each other as he opened the documents in front of him.
