Adam spent the rest of his time in his office going through the remaining work. At noon he went down and drove himself to one of the most lavish restaurants of Berlin.
He walked in, and just as he thought, Uncle Liam was already waiting for him. Adam could only shake his head, 'What is with this man and arriving earlier than the decided time?'
Adam was led by the manager himself to a private room located on the second floor, and was reserved for them.
As the dark wood doors were opened by a waiter, Adam could see a man in his late fifties, dressed impeccably in a dark navy blue coat and dress pants paired with a white button-down shirt. He still had an imposing aura surrounding him despite his old age.
'Dad would have been just like him if he was alive today.' He thought to himself, a sad smile embracing his lips.
"Uncle Liam. Good afternoon. I hope you are doing well." Adam greeted the old man politely.
"Hey kiddo! Since when did you become this formal with me, huh?" He scoffed.
"Since you started treating me just like your business partners. You dare call my secretary to actually make an appointment for a 'lunch meeting' with me." Adam scoffed as well mimicking his tone.
"I know you are busy these days with the business, so I didn't want to disturb you."
Adam grimaced in response, "Yeah, yeah! Whatever. And here I thought you misplaced my personal number."
"Come on Adam! Stop acting like a spoilt kid." Liam reprimanded him. "Now have a seat and order for your food. I have already ordered mine."
"Wow! So much for courtesy. I am feeling quite honored." Adam rolled his eyes upwards with a dramatic expression while sitting down in front of him.
He ordered his food, a waiter listening to him with patience , jotting it down as well. Soon their orders arrived. Both of them chatted happily while having their meals along, discussing business and their personal lives as well.
Liam, or Liam Nelson, was his father's childhood friend. Adam had grown up before his eyes. After his father, he was sort of a fatherly figure Adam had looked up to. Always asking for his advice whenever he needed one.
Other than his childhood best friend, Adam only had Liam, whom he could call a family.
Just like his father, Liam Nelson was also a well known name in the business industry that mostly dealt in marketing and shopping malls.
After the meal both of them parted their ways.
Adam decided to go back to his place earlier today since he had nothing else to do for today. He left Bella a text to inform her. Once in the car he thought of informing Stella so that she could go back earlier as well but realized that he didn't have her contact information. Asking Bella to inform her about it, he drove his car back to his place.
'The only perk I have being a President of a big corporation is that I can take off whenever I feel like it.' He thought to himself while driving up the driveway. He stopped his car next to the huge white fountain located in front of the main doors right in the middle of the huge garden covering the vast land. Tossing the keys to one of the guards, he reminded him not to scratch his beauty.
Making his way up to his bedroom, he freshened up quickly, and decided to go to his study. Reaching there he took out a book related to business from one of the dark wood bookshelves. Sitting on his arm chair, next to the floor to ceiling, he opened the book.
Around four hours later a certain someone woke up with a jerk. Taking-in his surroundings, Adam realized that he was in his study. 'I must have slept while reading that boring book.'
Belonging to the business world and having a good grasp of it was one thing but having your own personal interest in it was definitely another thing. For Adam, he stepped into the business world so that he could help his father.
Glancing at the wall clock he realized he had two hours left. Hurrying his way out back to the master bedroom, he stepped into his Italian styled bathroom. After taking a shower, he made his way to his walk-in closet with only a big white towel wrapped around his lower half which hung low on his waist revealing his abdominal muscles, the water droplets glistening under the white lights.
He changed into a navy blue, full-sleeved t-shirt with a v-shaped neckline and paired it with light gray fitted jeans.
After wearing a pair of white Adidas sneakers, he opened the drawer of his left bedside table, taking out the key of his most favorite car. He headed downstairs and informed the butler that he won't be eating at home tonight and will be coming late.
"You can go to bed early Uncle Rob. And please don't wait up for me like the last time." Saying goodnight to the old butler he made his way out to the parking garage. Driving out his darling, he drove down the driveway speeding all the way to 'The Golden Corals'.
