Dad accepted his errors without arguing with him? She turned and glanced at her dad. She shifted her gaze on Andre and she saw him staring at her with a cold gaze. His presence seems to carry an aura that doesn't match his status.
“It's fine sir. It's in the past and I have walked away from it. But I honestly just accepted the offer and I'm making plans to leave N.Y any moment soon. I can't go back on my words, I can't work in your company anymore, my sanity is more important to maintain a good working environment” Andre replied.
This arrogant daughter of his annoys him. There isn't any way he would bring himself to work with his daughter. He detest women and she's giving him more reasons why he should avoid them as much as he can.
“Then forget about the past if you've walked away from it. Talking about your sanity, I understand what you mean. I made the work place suddenly toxic for you but I regret it now. I was wrong all along but I didn't realise it.
I am ready to make it up to you. I'll refund your money to you with a 30% compensation. I am also willing to apologise to you publicly for getting you arrested by the police and using foul words. I was the one who made you leave,Andre Torello and I am willing to bring you back…” Camella declared.
Andre glared at her. What does she think, humiliate him and want him back? No way, he is not so cheap. He just looked away from her and said “I'm sorry Mr Benson, I can't return to the Wood's Electroworld” he apologised and unlocked the door.
Benson Wood just nodded. He didn't expect that he knew that he kept him so low and acted as if he was unimportant. He said someone knows his worth and offered him what he wasn't offered in four years of working with him.
As he shut the door, Benson Wood glanced at him. He should have treated him better. Andre was supposed to be the manager of the mechanical aspect of procurement and oversee the electronics procurement as well, but he deliberately refused him that position.
Camella saw her dad's eyes go reddened and she immediately got out of the car and went after Andre “Andre Torello” she called. He paused but didn't turn back to glance at her.
Camella walked over and stood before him. She glared up at him, he was tall, towering over her like she was his girlfriend. She sighed softly and said “I apologise Andre. I honestly apologise for hurting your ego and getting you arrested, I was wrong and I accepted my errors.
But don't take it out on the company. I'll issue a complete refund of your money back to you with compensation. The company needs you, I won't lie to you on that. I'll double whatever your new employer offers you just for you to return” Camella persuaded.
“Listen to me, Camella. I am patient but not stupid. There are other mechanical engineers out there, just go ahead and hire one or multiple of them. Why are you after me? I can't work in a place where I see this disgusting face of yours” he snapped at her.
Camella swallowed hard. How dare he say such words to her? How can her pretty well treated face look disgusting to him? Does he know how much she puts into treating her face?
“Then tell me what you want?” Camella asked, swallowing her pride. She could make him get rejected by whoever the employee was that hired him but she is just trying to be nice, that's why she kept persuading him.
Andre chuckled and said “get lost with your nostril company, that's what I want” Andre declared and glared at her in irritation before hissing aloud and walking away. How can he leave an offer in England and stay put here in N.Y because of her company?
Camella's hands formed a fist. She gnashed her teeth. Andre Torello!
When Andre got back inside, his mom asked “Is everything okay? Did they want you to return?” She saw the woman, who stepped out and talked with Andre but her back was turned to her and she didn't see her face. She must have been the arrogant daughter of Benson Wood.
“Oh, that's not necessarily. I didn't accept their offer” Andre replied flippantly and went to his room. He needed to do some work, first accept the job offer and make plans to travel to England. His mom said she's not coming with him but that's not going to happen.
He must persuade her to come along. If she doesn't agree to come along, he is not going to leave until she agrees. He loves his mom, she's the only family he'd got. Leaving her behind, would attract people like Regina to mock and badmouth her.
Alice was dazed. They came with an offer and her son refused it? This would have been the best opportunity to strike a bargain with them. Why did he refuse them?
As the chauffeur zoomed off, Camella called Fred Maxwell “Find out which company is hiring Andre Torello and give me an answer in an hour” she ordered and hung up. She will go after that company and ask them to withdraw the offer, if they don't want to get into a loggerhead with her.
Benson already knows what his daughter was aiming at and he smiled “Make sure, he accepts our offer but don't threaten him. We have to earn his trust and make him accept our apologies”
“I'll get him back dad, I'll try” Camella assured.
In Regina Logan's house, she received a call from Jasmine that she's in the hospital and she should come around. Regina was terrified, in the hospital? Why?
She informed her husband James Logan and rushed to the hospital. Her daughter was pregnant, was it pregnancy hormones that led her to the hospital or what?
When Regina got to the hospital, Patrick arrived to take Jasmine home. She'd been discharged but told to visit the hospital often to enhance her chances of conception. When the doctor gave her that advice, Patrick had gone to pay the bills.
“What happened Jasmine?” Regina asked, holding hands with her daughter and staring at her intently. She glanced at her belly and back at her face but Jasmine just held her hands and beckoned to her to be calm.
“..as I was saying, your chances of being pregnant again are slim. Your uterus has been affected and you might experience a delay in conception…” the doctor was saying when Regina's eyes were wide open.
The doctor soon left and she held her daughter “What happened to you, what is the doctor saying” he asked hurriedly. Did anything happen to her unborn grandchild?
“Just what you heard, Jasmine lost the pregnancy” Patrick answered, standing by the doorway. He was fuming in rage. He'd instructed Jasmine not to get anyone involved, but she is stubborn, so she called her mother over.
“Lost what? Oh no, how can she lose the pregnancy? My expectations are gone, how can I get…” she suddenly paused when Patrick completed her statement “the penthouse I promised you at the child's birth, right?”
Jasmine was embarrassed.
“No, no, how…how.. Can you say that? My expectations of being a grandmother have been shattered…m sad “ Regina stuttered, her complexion went ashen. How can Patrick read her thoughts so outrightly?
Ignoring his mother in-law, he glanced at Jasmine “let's go honey” he said and walked over, circling his hands around her shoulders and leading her out.
As they got to the parking lot, Patrick said “Aunt, please can you go home, my wife and I can take care of ourselves” he requested.
