Mr Bellini looks uncomfortable and I almost feel sorry for him. I can only imagine the anger that will probably be directed at him when he relays Angelâs demands.
He shifts nervously and says in a slightly strained voice, âI think you should brief Miss. Johnson on how Mr. Moretti operates. He will not take kindly to her demands and we both know heâs not a man to be dictated to.â
Despite the fact I feel fear tying my insides in knots, I look at him coolly. âMiss. Johnson was right to be angry. She is the majority shareholder in this business and deserves respect. Mr. Moretti is the minor shareholder and although this may be a small part of his empire, if he values it, he will attend. You see, Mr. Bellini, Miss. Johnson has no loyalty to this company. She is balancing between walking away and staying to make a go of it. One thing could sway her either way. Now, if Mr. Moretti is as good a businessman as I think he is, he will see the opportunity before him. He may be a minority shareholder now but that could change if he offers to buy her out. Surely, one meeting is worth that at least?â
I see the greed spark a gleam in Mr. Belliniâs eyes and we both know I have thrown him a lifeline. However he dresses my words up, it gives him the power to present a much more attractive demand to his boss. Yes, Tobias would be a fool not to be sitting in that seat tomorrow because Iâve seen the plans going forward and Johnsonâs plastics stands to be a business worth billions in the future if itâs handled the right way. I just hope that Angel has seen the same vision because she would be a fool to turn her back on it.
Pamela shows Mr. Bellini out and I head purposefully toward Angelâs office. I now have 24 hours to make sure she doesnât do the unthinkable and turn her back on this business because thereâs so much at stake for all of us. However, as I pass Dora, she calls out, âIf youâre looking for Angel she left.â
âLeft?â
I stare at her in surprise and she smiles ruefully. âSaid she needed to let off some steam.â
âWhere did she go?â
Dora shrugs. âShe didnât say.â
I feel the irritation bubbling up inside and snap. âIf she calls in, pass her to me. In fact, can you try her cell, itâs urgent I speak to her?â
Dora looks worried and reaches for her phone. âOf course, sir.â
I watch as she dials the number and waits. After a few rings she says quietly, âIâm sorry to trouble you, Angel but Mr. Stone would like a word.â
Thereâs a brief pause and then she replaces the receiver. âUm⦠she told me to tell you to umâ¦â
She looks uncomfortable, âUmâ¦go to hell, sir.â
I say nothing and turn away before Dora sees the amusement her words bring. I can almost see Angel saying them with her eyes flashing and her stubborn mouth forming the smart reply.
