Chapter 13

Cinderella was sitting at her desk and looking over some ideas that James had sent over to her, and if she had any changes of any of his ideas just let him know, but so far she really liked the stuff that she had read.

" Hey are you going to have lunch with that hottie today?" Nina walked into the office after she tapped on the closed door.

" Hey, yes I am but it more like a business meeting because Mitchell will also be there and James will also be there with his lawyer too." Cinderella put the papers back into the folder and then put it into her bag that was sitting in the bottom desk drawer.

" Oh l before I forget when you get back I do need to show you the account books." Nina remember the reason why she had to stop by the office in the first place.

" Ok is there anything wrong?" Cinderella looked up at his step-sister with a worried on her face.

" Everything is fine and I did not fine anything wrong, but I did find what looks like your signature but I know it is not yours. Well I will let you go to lunch now." Nina smile before she headed for the door.

" Well in a way that is good to hear and that may be the time I was gone and Lucinda took the three thousand dollars, could you tell where that check went too, do not worry about it right now and I will see you when I get back from lunch." Cinderella stood up and grabbed her bag and closed the drawer.

Both girls walked out of the office and Cinderella locked the door before heading down the hallway and into the lobby and came up to Betty's desk.

" You have a great lunch and I will see you tomorrow, I have to go and stay with my mother while my brother watches his grandchildren while his daughter goes to school and work." Betty looked up at Cinderella as the younger woman signed the notepad.

" Ok, how is she doing?" Cinderella put the pen down and looked at the older woman, who was gathering up her things so she could leave too.

" She is doing better than she was a couple of days ago, and I heard that it was the day that witch showed up here too, and claimed that she was the CEO and that she was the owner." Betty looked over to the security office and nodded over to the Security guard who was going to take her place for the rest of the day.

Once they exited the building they went their different ways to their cars.

Once Cinderella got to her car, she unlocked the door and got into the car, and drove off to the restaurant that she was to meet James and Mitchell at.

Twenty minutes later Cinderella pulled into the parking lot of the restaurant and parked two cars away from Mitchell's car.

Getting out of the car and locking the doors before she walked towards the restaurant.

" Good afternoon how many?" the hostess asked as Cinderella came up to the podium.

" Good afternoon am here with a couple of people, oh I see them." Cinderella looked around and saw James wave to her.

The hostess turned and saw the guy waving and then turned back to Cinderella and then she nodded for her to join her party.

Cinderella walked away from the podium and headed for the table where James and the two lawyers were sitting at.

" Hello gentlemen, I hope I did not keep you guys waiting." Cinderella came up to the three men who all stood up from the table.

" Hey Cinderella, not at all we just got here a couple of minutes ago, this is Frank my lawyer and Frank this is Cinderella." James kissed both cheeks of Cinderella before helping her to the chair next to him.

Both Cinderella and lawyer both nodded to each other even with a smile.

" Well I looked over everything that you have given me last week and looked it over again just before I came over here." Cinderella looked at James before looking at the two lawyers.

" So what do you think of the projects and is there anything that you want to change or even add." James pulled out his notepad.

Before Cinderella could answer him their server came over to them and took their drink orders.

" Well to be honest with you I really loved everything about your ideas on the projects and I really do not want to change anything or even add anything but you do know that I have to let my Head doctor take a look at these ideas and see what he has to say on them." Cinderella picked up the menu and began looking through it.

" Ok that sounds fine with me and just let me know when I can get together with him in a meeting and we can discuss anything that he wants to change or add too." James also picked up his menu as did the two lawyers and they began looking through the menus.

" I will give him a copy of the papers that you gave me when I return back to the office." Cinderella put down her menu just before the server came back over to the table with their drinks.

Once the server took their orders he left and the small group talked about the projects and even came up with other things to do that would help out both businesses.

It was an hour later Cinderella was back in her office and was putting together the copies of the projects that James gave her, so that way Dr. Williams could go over the stuff and see what he thinks, and if he wanted to add or change anything on the ideas, and also set a date for a meeting with James.

Getting up Cinderella left her office and walked down the hallway and through the lobby before going through a secure door and walking down the hallway until she came up to the office door, she raised her hand and knocked on the close door.

After seeing Dr. Williams and giving him the papers Cinderella went back to her office and was doing some paper work when her office door swung open and Lucinda and her lawyer came right into the room.

" What the hell are you doing here!" Cinderella looked up from her computer.

" I came here to let you know that you need to clear out of this office and building because as of next week this company will be sold to a bigger company and in two days we will meet with the new owners." Lucinda slammed the huge package down onto the desk before Cinderella could say anything to her she and her lawyer turned around and left the office.

Cinderella picked up the packet and began reading through the huge stack of papers and at the end of the stack Cinderella could not believe who the so-called owner was . . . Michael's name came out as the person who Lucinda sold the company too.
