“Ne Chris. let me say this!

Vanessa wiped her well–rehearsed tents out of het eyes.

The truth is….I’ve been feeling so guilty about losie lately. I know it’s my fault on why she left. I guess it’s been affecting my work. But I promise! I’ll get better! I’ll work harder! I’-”

Before she could finish, Christian jumped from his chair and hugged Vanessa tightly. As he gently stroked her hair, Vanessa smilef

smugly.

“Ness…stop it! Your work is amazing; it’s always been! You’re not blame for Josie. She made her own choices, and she chose to walkout on her family! That’s not on you…that’s on her!”

Vanessa wiped the newly formed tears flowing from her eyes; in another life, she could have been a great actress.

“Thank you big brother! I needed to hear that. Well, I want you to know my head is the game! I want to win that competition for HT Corp! These are some sketches and blueprints I worked on yesterday. Take a look at them and let me know what you think!

Vanessa bounced up from her chair; as she began to leave, Christian immediately stopped her.

“Vanessa….these are….incredible! You did this yesterday?”

A smug grin appeared on Vanessa’s lips before turning around with her usual mask.

“Do you really think so Chris? I feel like I could have done better. Especially if I want-”

“Ness….this is amazing! When I show dad these sketches he’s going to love them! You’re doing great I can’t believe I was foolish enough to doubt you!”

Vanessa ran over and hugged Christian tightly, her plan worked like a charm.

‘Thanks a lot café girl.‘

Vanessa thought as she made her way back to the designing department.

The time was 6:30pm, just as the designing team was about to leave for the evening, Harold and Christian made their way to the designing department to make an announcement. As everyone made their way to the center, Vanessa walked eagerly to the front. She’d already had an idea of what the announcement was going to be.

Harlod stepped forward clearing his throat to gain everyone’s attention.

“If you all could gather around; I’d like to make some quick announcements.”

“As you all may or may not know, Delgato Development will be hosting a competition after the new year to hire a development team to lead their Southern Townhome and Condos project.”

Many of the team members began whispering about the contest. It was already becoming the talk of Bridgeton as many of the Eastern Region developmental companies were vying for the contract.

“As you all know, HT–Corp will be entering that competition…Now….. I expect to win….I expect to get that contract! Because that’s going to not only expand our company, but it’s going to expand this entire department!”

The entire room erupted in cheers and claps. Expansion meant pay raises, promotions, and bonuses, so naturally everyone was excited. As the crowd grew quiet, Harlod continued.

“Now I know we can count on you all…the designing team to get us to victory!!! It’s going to be this very team that opens the doors that lead us into the Southern Region!!!”

Cheers erupted once again as Christian stood proudly next to his father as he began to speak next.

“And like all great teams…you need a great leader! Someone that will work hard, be creative, and give their 1000 percent all as we work hard to make this goal come true!”

Christian and Harold both smiled at each other as the team stood quietly waiting to hear who their project manager was going to be, though some already suspected the answer. Finally, Harlod announced it.

“It gives me great pleasure to announce the project manager that will lead us into victory…is none other than my beautiful and talented daughter…VANESSA TAYLOR!!!”

Majority of the room erupted in cheers with a few others showing disdain on their faces, but none beamed brighter than Vanessa. Tears filled her eyes as she walked up to hug her father and brother. Finally, everything she wanted to achieve was right within her grasp!

“Congratulations Vanessa.”

Josie watched the video with determination in her eyes as Vanessa beamed with joy. She knew at this moment, Vanessa must’ve felt like she was invincible; that was good. She wanted her to feel this glory, feel this joyous, feel this smug.

“Enjoy your moment of glory while you can darling sister.”
