Rise Of The Disgraced Heir

Camilla sat beside Ian as she gave him a concerned look.

Marco had taken them back to R Tower, to discuss their schedule and the additional training that they needed to undergo. They would also be talking about how Ian and Camilla would be splitting their time between working in the different companies and helping Marco with some assistant duties.​​

"Does it hurt?" Camilla asked as she wore a worried expression.

"I fought too much, I guess." Ian told her as he threw her a grin.

"Here, let me fix the ice pack." Camilla offered as she reached out and adjusted it for him.

"Sorry about that." Marco said with an apologetic smile as he returned to his office.

For some reason the CEO of the Reyes Group, Emilio Reyes III, had decided to come in way too early. It was only 8am and he was already in the next room, busy talking to someone.

"Right, on the matter of your schedule. You'll only be working your rotational roles and companies three times a week, so that's Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, you'll be here with me." Marco explained as he looked at Ian and Camilla to see if they understood what he was trying to explain.

The pair simply nodded, telling Marco that they understood.

"Next, self defense and survival lessons, these will happen every Saturday at six am sharp. An instructor will go over to Solaire, you can choose to train either at the gym or in your apartment. That bit I leave it up to you." Marco told Ian and Camilla.

"What if there were other skills that we think would be relevant to our work?" Ian asked.

"We won't stop you from learning." Marco told Ian. "As a matter of fact the CEO would encourage it. He is willing for the Reyes Group to shoulder any additional education or learning that you feel you might require, as long as you still manage to fulfil your basic duties,"

"So, let's say I wanted to learn coding or evasive driving, could I?" Ian asked as he worked on getting confirmation from Marco.

"Yes, as long as it doesn't interfere with your work." Marco said with a nod.

"Okay, great, I have some skills in mind that I want to work on." Ian told Marco with a grin as he plotted what he would learn.

"Next, the CEO rarely attends public dinners and events, for those only I will be attending." Marco told Ian and Camilla. "But for the more private functions, these are the more important ones you need to be part of. It will give you the opportunity to meet the really important people in our society."

"What if there is a conflict with our rotational work in the companies and these private events?" Camilla asked.

"Then you of course prioritize the CEO." Marco informed them. "The people you will be meeting won't just help you with the future CEO, it will help you with your personal goals as well."

"What about private functions? Do we need to attend those?" Ian asked.

"It depends, there are some that the CEO invites us to, but normally he doesn't." Marco told Ian. "He knows how little personal time we have and he doesn't want to take all of our time."

"Alright." Ian said with a nod.

"I will admit, with this schedule everything will be difficult and tiring. You will have very little time for your families and friends." Marco told Ian and Camilla with a frown. "I won't lie to you, my job has ruined relationships, but this is something you knew coming here."

"My family understands." Camilla said with a smile. "Plus I haven't been living with them for a while now so they don't really expect me home that often."

"Ian?" Marco asked as he looked at the young man. "I know you have a girlfriend, and I know that you still have obligations as your family's eldest son to fulfill, will this be an issue?"

"There won't be an issue with my family." Ian said, shaking his head. "They understand completely the demands of my job. My family has been nothing but supportive with this."

"And your girlfriend?" Marco asked. He of course knew that Ian was in a relationship. It would have been embarrassing if the Reyes Group wasn't able to find that little piece of information out.

"She will have to understand." Ian said with a nod. "Don't worry about my relationship, I can handle it." Ian said in a confident tone.

"To be honest, we wouldn't want your personal life to suffer from this job." Marco said with a frown.

"Don't worry, Jas will understand. She has to." Ian said with a determined look in his eyes.
