Chapter 46
Aurora soon returned back to St Petersburg. She was happy to be finally home and get to be with her kids. They were bigger and wiser than they were before she left.
Their words were more distinct and easy to understand. They cleaved to their mother, perhaps they were afraid their mother was going to leave them again.
Mia was glad that her daughter was finally back and can inherit all she had labored for all these years.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Her late husbandAlexhad worried himself to his death about who will take over the company after them.
She was now rest assured that her biological daughter was going to take over the position of the CEO of the starlight holdings.
Starlight holdings is the largest company in St Petersburg. There are other smaller groups who are in partnership with it.
Aurora’s grandfather Luke Rowan was organizing a welcome party for his granddaughter Aurora.
He was going to make a public acknowledgement of Aurora as his granddaughter.
He was the former President of the country and the recognition that is due to Aurora as a member of the Rowan’s family must be accorded to her.
Mia decided to hand over the office of the CEO over to Aurora on the day of her father’s party for Aurora. She prepared all the necessary files and put things in order.
Soon the party was slated to be held in a week’s time. Invitations were sent out to important dignitaries in the country and the current President was also invited.
All the employees of Starlight holdings were all informed that a new CEO was going to be appointed on the day of the ex-president party for his granddaughter.
They were all told to be present at the party. They were eager to know who the new CEO was going to be. Would he or she be one of them or someone they’ve not met?.
They knew their present CEO Mia Rowan had no child besides her adopted daughter Ralia. But Ralia had barely clocked 8years. So she’s definitely not going to be their new boss.
No one knew Aurora besides her immediate family. She had not been acknowledged publicly because she came to St Petersburg pregnant. No one knew her identity before nor the fact that she has kids.
Various Presidents of the smaller groups under Starlight holdings were invited as well as those who showed interest in partnering with them.
The Axel group was able to obtain an invitation. Though they are new in the country, they needed to associate with bigger groups to gain more grounds.
Preparations had been put in place. Aurora’s uncles and their wives were ensuring everything came out good.
“Your grandfather is going to acknowledge you publicly as a Rowan. He had organized the party purposely for that. As for being officially announced as the young CEO of Starlight holdings, it’s just an additional ceremony. Aurora my child, it’s time you start living the life you should have been living since you were born” Mrs Rowan said to her granddaughter.
No one knew how happy she was to wake up one day and realize she had a granddaughter so grown up. All these years, this girl had been separated from her family and lived in poverty.
Aurora held her grandmother’s hands “Grandma, thank you for all you and grandfather have been doing for me. You gave me a life I never dreamt of” her eyes were becoming teary.
She would never have believed that her life can become so different within three years. Her life had become so beautiful coupled with two lovely kids.
“What are you even saying silly girl” her grandmother drew her close to herself and enveloped her in a warm embrace.
Santiago was having a video conference with all the senior employees of their branch company in St Petersburg when the acting CEO informed him concerning the grand party organized by the family of the ex-president.
They had obtained an invitation and wanted to know if President Axel would be able to attend.
When Santiago heard that the new CEO of the Starlight holdings was going to be announced, he agreed to come over for the party.
He had heard during his feasibility study in that country that Starlight holdings was the largest company in the country. It was almost three times larger than the Axel group.
He wants to get to know the new CEO and make a friendly alliance with him. That will be good for the newly established Axel group in the country.
He told the acting CEO that he would be at the party and stay over for a couple of days to get to meet the new CEO of Starlight holdings and form an alliance with him.
Millie Logan and Grey had been invited as well. Aurora’s mother Mia had personally made provision for their flights and really wants to meet the woman who instilled so much healthy upbringing on her daughter. She was going to compensate her .
Grey wrote to apply for a week off work and Santiago approved it without asking for the reason.
When there’s two days left for the party, Mia selects some trusted bodyguards who will become Aurora’s personal bodyguards. She was going to introduce them to their new boss. She sent a message to the chief among them and told him to come over to the house.
Aurora was with her family. The house was full and complete. It is always very interesting when they all are spending some time together. It’s usually moments to be cherished.
The security came and informed Mia that the bodyguard she was expecting had arrived.
She told the security to let him in. The bodyguard soon entered and bowed to everyone seated.
Aurora raised her head to look at the fellow who entered and froze…
