I Hope You Will Never Regret

Mr Duma took a contract from his leather bag and gave it to Jordan to sign. He didn’t even read it; he quickly signed his name. What if Mr Duma changed his mind?

Mr Duma told him that he would take him to see the office space in Ballito at 9 am the following day. Also, he would invite the two gentlemen who would help him in the company.

He also told him that he would introduce him to Director Evans and his Team Leaders. He told him that currently, they were on vacation leave, but he had asked them to meet him. They would be at the Construction site at 12 pm.

Mr Duma smiled at the young man then he stood up, gave Jordan his business card then he shook Jordan’s hand, and walked out of the private room. Jordan sat down on the chair; his mind was blank. He was overjoyed.

A few minutes later, he took his phone and called his mother and said, “Mom, the Martins Group was impressed with my business plan, and they promised to fund my company. I am over the moon, Mom. I will buy you the biggest house in the suburbs,”

His mother couldn’t contain her excitement. She thanked the Lord for answering her prayers. She couldn’t wait to see the face of her neighbour, Mrs Sparrow when she told her the news. She would be jealous of her.

Jordan walked out of the private room and went to register his company. He went to the internet café to register his company. He forgot about Avery. He didn’t need her anymore. He was a billionaire now.

While he was registering his company, he found that he was supposed to pay two thousand rand, but he didn’t have money. Then he took his phone and dialed Avery’s number.

When it was connected, he said, “Baby, Mr Duma asked me to register my company, but I don’t have money. Do you mind transferring some money to my bank account? I promise to pay you back when I have money.”

Avery was happy for him and replied, “Congratulations, my love. I will transfer the money right now.” Then they hung up.

A few minutes later, Jordan received a bank notification indicating that five thousand rand had been deposited in his bank account. He was over the moon; he even forgot to thank his girlfriend.

He quickly paid the money and completed the registration of his company. Then he went to his bank to open the company bank account. He sent his company details to Mr Duma.

A few minutes later, he received a notification from the bank indicating that ten billion rand had been transferred to his company bank account. He couldn’t contain his excitement.

He went home to show his parents that he was a billionaire. When he arrived home his father was back from work. He told his parents that the Martins Group was so impressed with his business plan, and they funded his company.

His father’s swelled with pride and said, “Congratulations, my son. I am so proud of you.” Then he hugged his son tightly. His mother wanted to go to her neighbour’s house, the Sparrow family, but he was scared of her husband.

Mrs Bennet looked at her son and asked, “Why don’t you offer Luca a clerical job in your company, Son?” Jordan smiled and replied, “I offered him a Deputy CEO’s position, but he turned me down.”

Mrs Bennet sneered, “He is jealous of you, my dearest Son. Forget about him. The Martins Group will send skilled people to help you.”

Mr Bennet tried to defend Luca and said, “He just got a new internship, it will be unethical to leave the company. He will come to you after his internship is up.”

Mrs Bennet looked at her husband and replied, “We don’t want jealous people around our son. Don’t hire him after his internship is up. He knows that you need him, but he turned you down.

He is waiting for you to fail. You don’t need a friend like him. You don’t belong to the same circle anymore. What are you going to talk about when you are together?”

Mr Bennet shook his head and said, “Jordan and Luca became best friends when they were young. Stop sowing discord between the children. I don’t believe that he is jealous of our son.”

At the Martins Group, Eric was in CEO Martins’ office. CEO Martins looked at Eric and asked, “Thank you so much Eric for handling this matter for me. Do you think he will treat my daughter as a treasure?”

Eric smiled and replied, “I have warned him not to break Avery’s heart, but I am not sure if he heard me. He was humble and respectful, but I don’t know if it was his true character or not.

Money has a thing of revealing the true person’s character. Let’s wait time will tell.” Half an hour later, Eric bade goodbye to CEO Martins and left. He couldn’t shake the feeling that Jordan Bennet wasn’t the right man for Avery.

After Eric left, Siyabonga walked to the CEO’s office to remind him about the board meeting. CEO Martins sighed and followed Siyabonga to the boardroom.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

CEO Martins looked at the board of directors and said, “I have given the airport tender to the newly established company. I also lent him my Construction workers and the Construction Machinery.

I loaned him some money from my private account. I believe that we will get more tenders in the future.” There was no objection from the board of directors. The Martins Group CEO was famous for being kind-hearted and generous.

The following day, Mr Duma accompanied Jordan to see the office building. When they arrived at the office building, they met a middle-aged man and a young man.

Mr Duma introduced them to Jordan and said, “Mr Bennet, this is Mr Sean Swan, he is the Finance Manager, and this is Henry Biggs, Secretary. They are capable, they will provide you with guidance.”

Jordan smiled brightly at them, he shook their hands and said, “Nice to meet you. I hope we will work well together.” Mr Swan smiled brightly and replied, “Pleasure is mine, President Bennet. We will try our best to take the company to greater heights.”

They walked to the lifts, and Mr Duma pressed the 19th-floor button. The office space was spacious, and it was divided into five private offices which were designed for top management.

Jordan was satisfied with the 19th floor. Mr Duma showed him the President’s office. It was spacious and it had a lounge. He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window; the view was breathtaking.
