The Convenient Marriage

Mr Douglas had agreed and they both promised not to tell their wives it was their idea but that friends suggested so.

Hearing a knock at the door which drew him back to the present he replied with a thick voice "come on in".

Mrs Douglas opened the door and came in,sitting opposite her husband with the coffee in her hands she said "you look so pale are you alright?" Mr Douglas replied I don't know how jade would feel about this,she may even hate me for it cause she'd wanted this all her life but am still making it far from her reach" "no don't think that,you can't keep on suffering yourself like this,its all for her good cause she has to know how it feels to work under someone so when she starts managing your company, she would know how to handle others who work under her,besides its not like she's going to be s servant,she would still be respected".Mrs Douglas said,encouraging her husband.

just then the door opened and jade came in carrying two cups of coffee,she handed one to her father saying "there you go dad" and gave him a peck,while Mr Douglas replied "thanks baby,you can sit next to your mum".

Mr Douglas began by asking how her night was "dad it was splendid"jade replied then added "can we please go on to the discussion" eyeing her mum she finished "mum has already kept in enough suspense". Mr Douglas chuckled and started "you have to wait till I finish talking before you reply.i'll have to make it short,you know how I started my company,thinking my dream would never come true and feeling like its always prolonged, I and my good friend later joined together and produced a company and not many years later we got footed each and had to separate the company,I made mine and he made his" stopping to sip his coffee he continued "I just want to let you know that you have to work under someone before I make you my manager,you have to know how it feels to work under someone,not given that much privilege and to work to your masters satisfaction".Mr Douglas stared at his daughter for a response. "dad but you promised me I would start work when I graduate"jade said tears filling her eyes as she continued "but not to worry am okay with it". Mr Douglas said "Mr Pritchard had volunteered to employ you as his sons P.A"
