Chapter 72 - "WHAT THE HELL!!!!"
On reaching Wilson\'s co, the surrounding was filled with media and paparazzi lining up in the boundary, Kian cursed inside his Mercedes.
He breathed in and then got out of the car. The moment he did, all the cameras started flashing on him as the reporters marched towards him, firing their questions on his way.
The guards immediately surrounded him as he walked along with them in the middle. He avoided making any kind of eye contact with the cameras.
"Mr Wilson is it true are you really resigning from Wilson Oil??"
"Mr Wilson why the sudden resignation??"
"How does it feels to leave fifteen years of work in a day??"
"Is it true you are married to the Rutherford heiress??"
"Sir is it true that you both indulged in a long affair even when Miss Rutherford was contractually engaged to Mr Herrington??"
"Is it the affair that lead to this, Mr Wilson??"
"Is that why your aunt, Mrs Wilson disowned you and made Josh Herrington, the acting CEO for the time being??"
That one question made Kian stop on his steps and look back at the reporter who aired that question out.
He would kill Josh even before making his way inside something he built and nurtured for fifteen years.
It boiled his blood and he was about to step out and get ahold of the collar of the reporter who was spreading such rumours.
But thankfully, Madison pushed in her way through the crowd and held Kian\'s hand, stopping him from breaking out from the chain of his guards.
"Believe me you do not want them to project you as some violent, hot-headed mess whose aunt disowned him."
Madison voiced out, making eye contact with his red ones in furry, asking him...requesting him to listen to her.
"Your all questions will be answered only after the conference is over. So move along now."
Madison yelled to the impatient press and let Kian in the skyscraper with her. She had a hand on his arm as they both walked inside with the guards.
The minute both stepped inside his private lift, Madison broke off.
"I m so sorry for what I did. It\'s irreparable. I was just so drunk and I tweeted out the most scandalous thing of my life."
She had to apologise. She knew that she messed up real big. If not for her tweet, the outside world would not have known about this news until they announced it out to them in a civilised way.
"It\'s fine. They would have known sooner or later anyway."
Kian said, looking away as the lift made its way to the thirtieth floor. He was really not angry at Madison.
She was the only ally he had at the moment and he did not want to mess that up. His mind was too preoccupied.
Madison nodded reluctantly, standing beside him. She was still drowning in remorse messing up his public image.
The cleanest and without one bad bone, bachelor of the country was Kian Wilson.
All his competitors and enemies always tried to look out for one mistake to ruin his public image but never succeeded.
And in one night, she blew that up with just one tweet. His own personal assistant became the reason for his undoing.
The tweet circulated a million times as the news spread of how the Wilson Oil Ceo stepped down from his position in the most entertaining way possible.
\'\'
How many P.A resigns with their boss?? Right, it\'s just me and @kianwilson with the spiciest reason for stealing bride from @jh!!!
Ohh!!! Poor @ValeriaWilson, I feel ya!!!
\'\'
Crying, laughing emotes...
The tweet was retweeted half a million times and liked by more than half.
Wilson Oil was a national treasure. It was the company selling oil all over the world.
And news as such was everywhere. Madison had six million followers, being the most efficient right hand of Mr Wilson and a representative of oil resources in Wilson name had popularity in the country.
Many aspired to them for having the most professional relationship as boss and assistant.
They were both many times speculated of dating too but it was in the air that such claims were all false.
So Madison was as popular as she could ever wish for, working alongside Kian. Her life changed when she was hired by them ten years ago.
Valeria Wilson hired her by herself, wanting the most efficient assistant for her nephew to run the big Oil company.
No wonder why her tweet caused such drama. And she regretted it the moment she got sober in the morning.
Her shriek of curses and wails of cry echoed in the neighbourhood. Anna Maria was astonished and ran to her granddaughter\'s room.
She skipped her breakfast, bathing too and just got dressed and slipped inside her Range Rover as she sped to the office. She woke up late with a hangover.
Her tweet was the reason, the press had so much information about this all. They did not have to work hard to cut it out who the bride was.
Everyone knew about the contract between the Herrington and Rutherfords.
That was why it was so important for Josh to get Tinsley back even after he was declared heir to the Rutherford fortune.
It would ruin the Herrington name if he did not keep the promise he made to Rutherford.
And Kian involved himself in between the mess without any gain, tarnishing his name and carrier in one go.
"Is it true??"
"What??"
Madison asked, looking at him.
"Harrington to be appointed as the acting CEO??"
Kian implored. He knew that it had to be some sickest joke. Valaria would never stoop that low.
But Madison\'s silence only confirmed it. He could not help from landing his fist on the mirror of the lift, breaking it into shreds.
Madison shrieked, getting afraid, stepping backwards.
"What the hell!!!"
She screamed inside the lift, looking at him with fear. She had never seen Kian the way he was at the moment. He never lost his composure even when he lost the biggest deals.
This was one fucked up case.
