CHAPTER 56: BANK (5)
He could not believe that Andrew in the midst of all this chaos and excitement was still thinking about the people who used to work with them.
Adam also thought about those people. His old friends from the delivery service. The countless other faces he had seen in the background of his own struggle.
He realized that if he had not found the One--Click Billionaire app he would still be one of them.
He would still be wandering here and there in search of a job.
Just then Adam smiled.
It was a genuine smile. "Don’t worry Andrew," he said his voice now filled with powerful conviction.
"I have thought of a very good job for them. For all of them. In fact you just keep watching. I will change the whole situation here. Not just for us. But for everyone."
Adam had the most dangerous power in this world. And that was money. And he had decided to use it not just to build an empire but to build a better world.
Just then a girl came there interrupting their conversation. She was very young. Only about twenty-three years old. She had long black hair.
She had come wearing office clothes a simple but elegant dress that accentuated her natural beauty. She came and stood in front of Adam and Andrew.
Adam was very surprised to see her beauty. She had a striking presence. A quiet confidence that was captivating.
The girl bowed her head respectfully in front of Andrew. "Sir you called for me," she said, her voice soft.
Andrew pointed to Adam. "This is Adam," he said. Maria then bowed her head in front of Adam as well. "It’s nice to meet you sir," she said.
Adam raised his hand. "Don’t worry," he said with a small smile. "You can just call me Adam."
"He is the real owner of this bank," Andrew said bluntly.
Maria was very surprised to hear this. She looked at Adam again. She saw a young boy who was wearing simple casual clothes. He looked as if he was the first customer of this bank not its owner.
But she was very surprised to see that this unassuming boy was the owner of this grand new bank.
Maria understood from Adam’s clothes and his humble expression that he must have belonged to a very humble background. She was intrigued. She was impressed. She was also a little intimidated.
Just then Adam started to leave from there.
He had said everything he needed to say. He turned and walked away without another word. Maria was a little surprised to see him leaving so abruptly. She looked at Andrew with a confused expression. Andrew was just standing there.
He looked at Maria and gestured for her to follow Adam. Maria realized what he meant after hearing this. And she started to go after Adam.
Maria was a little confused. She followed Adam out of the bank feeling a whirlwind of emotions. She did not know that Andrew had been considering her for the role of CEO of this bank. She had just been looking for a job.
Any job in the any sector. She had been lucky enough to get an interview at this new bank. She thought she should be working inside the bank at this very moment.
But instead the person who was supposed to be her boss had sent her off with the mysterious young owner of the bank.
Adam was walking at a slow pace. When he looked back he saw that Maria had run to catch up to him. She was now walking right next to him.
Adam turned and said to Andrew who was still standing at the entrance of the bank "Andrew come to my house in the evening. I have more important things to talk to you about."
Andrew just nodded his head. He watched them go and then went back inside the bank. He had done his part. He had brought the two of them together.
Now it was up to Adam.
Adam turned. He looked at Maria. He decided to get straight to the point. He did not have time for small talk. "So tell me Maria," he said.
"If I give you a whole business let’s say I give you a brand new business from scratch. Then how would you grow that business?"
Maria was a little surprised to hear such a question. It was not the kind of question she had expected in a job interview. She also did not know where she was going with this young man.
Maria said with a little confusion and a lot of fear "Sir how can I tell you like this? I don’t even have any experience of running a business." She was being honest. She was a recent graduate. She had never had a real job before.
Adam was very surprised. He stopped walking and looked at Maria.
He thought But Andrew was praising her so much. He said she was exceptional. And she hasn’t even run a business yet. He was a little disappointed. "Is this your first job?" he asked in a surprised tone.
Maria nodded her head with a little fear.
She was afraid that she had already failed her interview. That she had disappointed this young man.
Adam saw the fear in her eyes. He also saw something else. He saw a spark of intelligence. A flicker of hidden potential. He understood that Andrew must have seen her skills her raw talent not her experience. Adam smiled.
A slow calculating smile. "Okay then," he said his voice now a low whisper.
"Let’s check your skills." Adam said this in a very low voice. Maria could not hear him.
Adam got on the train with Maria. Maria was very confused. She finally gathered all her courage. "Sir where are we going?" she asked Adam her voice barely a whisper.
Adam looked at Maria.
His expression was unreadable. "Your new place," he said simply. "The place where you will have to work from now on." Maria was very surprised to hear this. She did not understand what he meant.
Just then Adam took out his phone. He called the manager Kim.
