Adrian Nielsen
"I'm not training with you." I said as I got out of the boxing ring to avoid having a training session with Chance. He's a good boxer and I don't want to have bruises for a month.
"Why not?" Chance laughed as he put down his water and phone. He turned to our trainer, Jeff, and smirked.
"I'm done for the day."
"One game, Nielsen. One game won't hurt." Chance said and I took my water bottle from the ground shaking my head in the process.
"You're such a loser." He mocked.
"I rather be a loser than going around in a wheelchair. Last time I had a match with you, I ended up with crutches you dickhead." I hissed and Jeff laughed.
"Why the hell are you doing in Paris? Aren't you supposed to be in Denmark?" I turned my head to see Angelo walking in.
"Why the hell are you in Paris? Aren't you supposed to be in Italy?" I mocked him by imitating his voice. Chance laughed and Angelo glared at me.
"I was going to Denmark but.. I changed my mind. I rather be here seeing you guys." I said and Chance rolled his eyes at me. Angelo just walked past me. I bid my goodbyes to Jeff and walked out from the gym.
I took a shower and changed into my suit. I drove out from the headquarters to the airport. I'm going back to London and chill. I really need a rest because I'm really tired these days.
My phone rang from my pocket and it's none other than my lovely mother. I have to prepare my ear because she tends to raise her voice.
"Adrian Lewis Nielsen!" Oh my. How did my father cope up with this woman? She raises her voice a lot.
"Yes mother?" This is why I don't stay in Denmark, my parents love giving me long ass speeches.
"Why aren't you in Copenhagen?!"
"I'm busy, mother." I answered fatly.
"You better get your ass here or I will go to London and drag it myself." She's acting like her son is 12 years old. I'm 27 years old for god sakes.
"Mother, I'll go there next week."
"But you said to your brother that you will come today." She said in a sad tone.
"I got work, I'll go home next week."
"You better be or I'll drag your ass here!" She ended the call and I chuckled. When I arrived at the airport, I got out of my car and got into my private jet. I flew back to London and went straight to the headquarters.
I went up to my office and did some work before going to my lab. I wanted the new update with the tracking device and Leah's new idea. I want to know more. I went into my second lab and called Leah to come so she could presentate her idea.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Nielsen." I heard Leah coming into the lab while I'm checking my emails on my iPad. I looked up to her and she's smiling at me. I was taken back for a second with her smile.
"Did you prepare it?" I asked and she showed me her laptop.
"Yes, I did." She said and I put my iPad away. She put her laptop in front of me and opened it. She sat next to the laptop facing me and she raised her eyebrows.
"May I start?" She asked and I gestured to her to start. She started explaining her design first and then her idea for the programming. She's smart and I can tell that she will help me make a lot of things in the future.
I love smart women and I'm not the type of man who judges them by their looks. I can say looks are just a bonus. Woman like Leah is pretty rare, she got both. God must have His favorites.
After about 20 minutes explaining, she's done. She was waiting for my response and I kept looking at the design on her laptop.
"It only lasts for a week huh?" I asked.
"Yes, Mr. Nielsen."
"I can say that your idea is really fresh but I think you should think about making the power more. Maybe a small solar power or maybe other things." I said and she immediately took out her small note out of her pocket writing it down.
"Very well, I'll do my research and get back to you." She said and she closed her laptop.
"Leah, I understand that.. you really want to work hard in this field and I can see the potential that you have but I suggest you to.. let it flow." I said because after looking at presenting and writing her notes.. she seemed very hurried.
"I.. I.. I was just.. a little nervous. I mean you're my role model and the person that I respect so much so.. being able to.. to.. to work here is just.. still unreal for me." She said as she looked nervously to the ground. I chuckled and nodded.
"I understand completely but stressing a lot in this job will lead you to nothing. Take it slow but constant, you'll get there." I got up from my seat.
"Yes, Mr. Nielsen."
"You can go back to work." I said and she grabbed her laptop with her and walked out of the room. I walked towards my computer and started to work on a new software. My phone rang distracting me from my work.
"Hello." I answered without looking at the caller ID.
"You got the invitation?" Angelo asked.
"Of what?"
"Phoenix's wedding." That hit me again that Phoenix is no longer a part of us. Sometimes I forgot that he even left, it's still unreal.
"I guess, I'll find out when I get back to my office." I said and Angelo ended the call.
"Stupid love. You are fucking stupid, Sterling. You're a fucking idiot." I hissed.
