Chapter 92 - Neo Software

Chapter 92 - Neo Software

Dawn was cutting a slice of pancake when she stopped and looked at Daryn. She frowned and asked, "What party? And I won't go to any party with you when you are officially engaged to Maya."

Daryn pursed his lips. He knew that this was going to be a difficult task. "Maya has invited me for a party at her father's place to announce that our wedding has been postponed, and I would like you to go there with me."

The spoon in Dawn's hand slipped and clanked on the floor as her open fell open showing the remains of chewed food inside. Was he mad? She gulped her food down and in a very calm voice said, "Are you out of your mind? Azura had told me that the pure bloods are after my life and you want to take me to the den of pure bloods? I am truly amazed at your logic behind this!"

He took a deep sigh. Her point of view was correct. She was after all thinking about her safety. The way he had dropped the bomb, she was bound to explode. He put his hands up in the air and said, "Okay, my bad! But I have another very important thing to say since you have raised the topic of your safety."

She stared at him and said flatly, "I won't go," and resumed eating.

"Dawn, I am concerned about your protection from harm. If you will go and set up the office, it wouldn't take much time for the killers to sniff you out. The Silver Arcade is your safe sanctuary for now. Let this threat subside and then you can do what you like."

Dawn sipped the juice from her glass. She couldn't disagree that threat to her life was lingering. "But I have already announced it at the party. My clients' will think that I lied to them."

"Of course not! Write on your blog again that it will take some time for you to arrange the office and until then just operate from home, online."

Dawn again stopped eating. It wasn't a bad idea. She tilted her head as if mulling over what he just said. She took another sip of the orange juice and nodded. "Okay, I will do that."

Daryn couldn't believe that she agreed with him. His wolf jumped with joy. He grinned satisfactorily.

Now she was already dressed, ready to go. Slight sadness seeped into her mind for not going. She also had to see the papers of the new company she had acquired. She didn't know how to go about that. Until yesterday it all seemed so easy, but what would she do now? She had a management degree in her hands, but everything looked easy in theory, however in reality, things made her slightly nervous.

He sliced the sausage again. "Since you are ready, why don't you join me to the office?" he said sounding as casual as possible yet desperately hoping for her to join. "Also, now that you have an eight million company in your hands, what are you going to do about it? How will you run? Do you have a plan? This was quite a hostile takeover. You have to inform the employees, the shareholders and users. There are a whole lot of protocols that have to be followed." For the first time he felt proud of his experience as the CEO of The Silver House.

"I know," she sighed. "I have prepared a list of things to do after the takeover. But for that I need to go out."

"Umm… no, going out now would be all the more risky because along with the pure bloods, even Jason will come after you. He won't sit quiet."

Dawn was irritated at this point. She lashed, "You are being paranoid! Damn it! With the way you are saying it seems like I can't step out of this place without bullets firing at me. I can't stay confined here all the time!"

Daryn gulped. "Baby, it's only for a few days." He cringed at the thought of harm to her. "If you like, I can send someone to complete the process of taking over the company." He stopped to look at her in order to gauge her mood and added, "That is, if you like."

Dawn pursed her lips. She wanted to learn the process but also knew that it was important that the takeover was smooth so that the employees didn't feel the brunt of it. "Daryn, I won't mind, but I would like to oversee the process. So I am going to call the secretary of the company and get the details over here."

"What is your company known as?"

"Neo Software!" Quite like neotides, she mused.

"Ah!" Daryn sipped his orange juice. "Dawn, at this point you shouldn't call anyone to The Silver Arcade and tell them about your whereabouts. Come with me to the office and I will give a room to you. You can call people there." He kept the glass on the table to hear her answer.

Dawn looked at him and a pale blush spread on her cheeks. She got up from her place and to his surprise walked up to him. She stood in front of him like a small child and said, "Thank you so much for being so thoughtful. When will I ever be able to repay you?"

A frown appeared on his forehead. He pulled her and made her sit on his lap. Holding her from the waist, he buried his face in her neck and smelled it for a long time. Did she even know about the mates? "Just stay with me. That's all I can think of. Your safety is my utmost priority because…"

She cupped his cheeks and kissed him, stopping him to speak further. He gave himself to her completely. After she stopped, she placed her chin on his head. Why did everything else fade in front of him?

The two of them were on their way to The Silver House in the next fifteen minutes. Daryn looked at her while she delved herself into the documents. He was so proud of her. This girl wasn't the typical girl who was into looking for popularity or standing in society. She kept to herself and her work. And she was already a CEO of a company. He chuckled at her dramatic takeover.

She looked up at him with a question in her eyes. He diverted the topic. "You have never told me about your parents. I would like to know more about you."

Dawn lowered her eyes. "I don't want to hide anything from you but is it okay to tell about them later?"

"Sure," he replied. If he wanted he would have got her background check done but that would have been breaking trust.

"There is something I wanted to point out about your gaming company, The Jupiter Inc." She changed the topic.

The way she said, he immediately became alert. Considering the fact that she had predicted the downfall of The Mink Corporation, and that she was the real DW, he couldn't help feeling slightly jittery.

"Have you had any meeting with your VP who looks after it?"

"No!"

"Ask him to trash the latest game he has floated."

There was coldness in Daryn's eyes as he drove. "Why?" The scary cold CEO tone returned.

"Before I answer that, tell me if you have any other game in your repertoire, which is complete and can be launched immediately?"
