Mr. President: You Are The Daddy Of My Triplets - Chapter 479

Chapter 479: 479- Dizziness
Where is she? Is she safe? Why couldn’t the hotel provide CCTV footage?

All these questions were attacking George’s brain during a meeting with all the board members. His fingers were tapping the polished surface of the conference table, ignoring the discussion going on in the room.

“Sir! Mr. Donovan?”

George blinked.

Everyone was looking at him, waiting.

One of his senior executives repeated his question after a bit of hesitation, “Should we go ahead with the proposed partnership or wait for further evaluation?”

George could hardly process the question. He glanced at the screen and saw a bunch of projections, then he nodded absentmindedly, “Hmm. Do whatever works.”

The people sitting there exchanged puzzled glances. The same senior executive cleared his throat, “B-but… but we need your approval on the final terms.”

George pinched the bridge of his nose and exhaled sharply, “Fine,” he snapped, “email me the details.”

His response was met with an awkward silence, and then the meeting continued as one of them kept talking about the numbers flashing on the screen.

After fifteen minutes, as the discussion wrapped up, George pushed back his chair and stood up, “Thank you, everyone. Meeting adjourned.”

He didn’t wait for them to leave and pulled out his phone. He felt his patience running thin. After a few rings, he heard Paige’s cheerful voice, “You called Mr. Donovan? Are you done with the meeting?”

George, who was entering his office, reached his seat taking long strides, and leaned back into his chair, “Come to my office, Ms. Fletcher. Now!”

***

He didn’t beat around the bush, “Paige Fletcher,” he said, his voice calm, “As you didn’t come up with any convincing explanation about Anaya’s disappearance… so… I can no longer keep you here.”

There was a long silence in the room. Paige wasn’t expecting this sudden decision from his side. She had thought that he had believed in her explanations.

Her lips parted while her eyes were wide in shock, “Are you firing me, Mr. Donovan?”

George didn’t even glance at her. His focus had already shifted to his laptop, “Maybe,” he started typing something, keeping his tone dismissive, “Feel whatever you feel like.”

Standing there, Paige felt her throat tightening, “B-but… I already told you that… I’m innocent… she… I swear … she asked me to…”

“That’s all,” he cut her off, still not looking up.

Paige swallowed hard, her fingers curling at her sides.

She never expected that.

She had thought that it would be best for her if she would conveniently get rid of Anaya. But no. She was wrong.

“Th…this office… It’s my bread and butter, sir,” she tried to make him understand, struggling to hold back her tears.

And she was my life, Paige. He didn’t say that.

His days and nights were spent looking for her. He searched every airport, railway station, and hospital. But still, no luck.

Paige was still standing there speechless, in confusion. But George didn’t even acknowledge her presence.

His mind was only occupied by one name. Anaya.

I survived when Abigail Sinclair left. But I won’t be able to survive without you, Anaya.

***

Standing outside the building of Star Corps, Paige rolled her lips between her teeth. She was trying to call that man, but he wasn’t responding.

How could he? She wiped the tears off her face. How could he fire me just like that? I was such a good secretary and yet he…

She couldn’t think after that and started crying, giving a fu*ck that people were throwing weird glances her way.

What would she do now? Losing the job meant no VIP accommodation for her, and she didn’t think George Donovan would provide her with any experience letter.

He was pissed at her.

Oh, God. She messed it up.

While helping Aniya with the new job, she was happy that she was getting rid of the girl without creating much chaos.

Anaya would quit her job and walk out of that hostel quietly. And Anaya Jakes did exactly that.

She left George, Star Corps, and the hostel without creating any fuss.

But Paige wasn’t aware that George would act like a wild werewolf in her absence. Yes, she always liked werewolf romance and always imagined George as a pack Alpha.

But now an Omega like Anaya had won, and Paige, who was dreaming of becoming a Luna, was losing it now.

Instead of going to the hostel, she decided to go to the same five-star hotel, White Palace. She needed to talk to him.

He might be the only one who could help her with this.

Aniya was lying still on the bed, looking at the ceiling. She felt disoriented and didn’t feel like getting up.

The door opened softly, and a familiar voice spoke to her, “Ma’am?”

Aniya turned her head and found the same nurse standing near the bed with a friendly smile, “You’re awake. Great!” The nurse stepped closer, “Mr. and Mrs. Sinclair are waiting for you to have lunch with them. Would you like to freshen up first?”

Aniya blinked and spoke in a hoarse whisper, “Lunch?”

The nurse nodded, “Yes, ma’am. It’s past noon.”

Noon?

Without thinking, she bolted up in panic. But then held her head in both hands, “My God! I overslept.”

“Watch out, ma’am,” the nurse held her by her shoulders, “I’ll help you. Take your time, please.”

“They must be thinking that a freeloader girl loves sleeping!” she murmured under her breath, but the nurse chuckled, “It’s okay. They know you aren’t well. But now your body needs food.”

Aniya tossed the blanket aside, not knowing if she should join the couple or not. Facing them might be more traumatic.

She felt dizziness for a moment, but then it faded.

So, is Mommy also there with Daddy?

She had no idea how she would interact with them.

“I’ll be there in a while,” she told the nurse who held her hand in confusion.

“But ma’am.”

“Trust me. I’ll be there in a jiffy,” she snapped her fingers and then got up slowly, “See? I’m not falling.”

With that, she dashed to the bathroom. Good, God! She needed to pee!
