The Silver Crescent Alpha Prince

Chapter 256 - Hotel Black Rose

"Yes, speaking," said Dawn as she looked at her computer screen, which was booting.

"Good morning, Miss Silver. I am calling from Juniper Hospital and we have your Grandmother, Mrs. Lily Wyatt in the emergency room."

Dawn's face twisted into an indescribable expression. "I am sorry but you have called the wrong person. You should call Cecilia McDow, her Granddaughter." The last person she would have felt any sympathy was Lily Wyatt.

"But Ms. Silver, she is in bad condition and—"

Dawn cut her off and tossed the phone on the table. She clenched her jaw. There was no way she would go to see that woman. A few minutes later she called her lawyer Hertz and that was it.

An hour later Hans Müller came with a team of five people.

Forgetting about Lily Wyatt, Dawn submerged herself into more important topics of the day.

Hans started. "Dawn, I have made a list of all our clients and the software that we are working upon. I have also listed all the games that our developers are working upon. The buyer we have has a bigger company that is into software and gaming."

"So what is their motivation to buy my company?" she asked like a true businesswoman with sharpness in her eyes.

"The main motivation I feel is that they wish to multiply their business and since you have just started and have a nice list of clients, they think that buying it at this point of time would be better because they would be able to develop it according to their style. Basically they feel that The Neo Software is very much in its nascent stages, yet promising."

Dawn smiled. She knew what Hans actually meant. "You mean that because we are a startup and have a promising future, buying us off in nascent stages will mean less valuation?"

Hans gulped. "Yes, that too," he replied. This woman was sharp and not just like any other kid.

Over the next few hours they discussed various other points and planned on actions to be taken at every step. At the end of five grueling hours in which Dawn didn't allow anyone of them to go out, she had a list of questions ready apart from the offer. She wanted to first meet the person who was so interested in buying the company.

"So what time is the meeting?" she asked.

"At 7PM," said Hans. "And the main buyer will be sending his representative, a woman called Mrs. Wilson. He has other meetings."

Dawn frowned. "What the hell? Why is that?"

Hans shrugged. "I don't know," he said. "Maybe he will join later?"

Dawn nodded. There was no harm in meeting but her dinner date with Daryn… She pursed her lips. "Okay gentlemen, you may all go. Leave the papers here."

"I have fixed the meeting for you in the Hotel Black Rose."

"Okay."

When they left, she was craving for food and she had to call Daryn.

"Babes!??? he said excitedly as soon as she called him.

"Darling, we might have to cancel the dinner tonight."

"What?" he sounded like a deflated balloon. "Why?"

She narrated everything to him. "Dawn, why do you have to sell the company for such a puny amount? I am there to loan you that much money in exchange of favors!"

"Shut up, you pervert!" she said with a chuckle. She knew that fifteen million dollars were absolutely nothing for Daryn. He earned twice that amount in a day. "I want to do this for the experience, Daryn. Plus I have to buy Starfish…"

"Where is the meeting taking place?" he asked.

"You are not planning on crashing it, are you?"

"No, I am not!" he replied stubbornly.

"At Hotel Black Rose."

"Okay," he said boringly. "Have you eaten?"

"No, I am about to go to the cafeteria."

"Don't! I am already in the elevator coming to your office in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" Her office door opened and Daryn was standing over there holding a bag with food.

Dawn was stunned. She flung the phone on the table and rushed to hug her hubby tightly. "Dear Gods, you have grown upon me." She kissed him on his lips. "I love you!"

Daryn grinned as his chest swelled with pride. He couldn't help it. His wolf loved to feed his female. "I love you too baby," he said licking his lips.

As they ate food, Daryn enquired more about the buyer. He would make her eat and then wipe her face or give her juice in between as he tapped messages on his phone. Dawn spoke at length, fondly about how she had prepared and how out of blue this offer came. It was so sudden that she was pretty stunned.

"Mhmm…" he would reply to her in monotone.

When the lunch was over, he said, "I need to leave Dawn but see you in the evening. Don't exert yourself, okay?"

"I won't," she replied affectionately.

After Daryn left, she went back to work. When she checked her watch next, it was 6PM. She didn't have the time to go back home to change her dress, so she went to the toilet in the office and washed her face, tied her hair in a bun to look neat and give that business-like vibe. She was off to the Hotel Black Rose.

When she reached there, she asked the receptionist, a young black girl in red, about the rooftop restaurant she had to go to.

"Oh! We've been waiting for you Mrs. Silver," said the receptionist with a lovely smile.

Dawn frowned slightly. Surely this man or woman was pretty popular? Or maybe they had informed about her arrival. "Sure," she said.

The receptionist hopped out of her place and said, "This way ma'am." She waved her hand fluidly towards the elevators.

"I can go," said Dawn.

"Oh no! I insist," said the girl.

Dawn had to say that the service of the hotel staff was impeccable. The girl hopped in the lift and waited for Dawn to come in. When the door closed, she pressed the button for the rooftop restaurant. She couldn't help smiling at Dawn. Her smile was pretty mystifying. Dawn wasn't able to understand the excitement that the girl was bubbling with. She decided to go along the tide. The elevator opened and they stepped into the exquisite restaurant. It was enclosed in a glass wall all around. Even the ceiling was made of glass. "This place is lovely," she said as she noticed the stars dazzling brilliantly through the glass.

"Thank you Ma'am," the girl replied.

Dawn noticed that there was no one else present in the restaurant. Was it too early?

"This way ma'am," the girl said as she led her towards a private dining space, which was covered with tall bamboo on all four sides.

Dawn took her seat. The girl left with a smile plastered on her face. Soft music floated in the air. A waiter came, handed her the menu card and left. Obviously the buyer had taken a lot of measures in making her feel nice. She liked it.

Half an hour passed but no one came. Also she knew that no other person had entered the place. What was going on? Dread rose within her mind. Her flight reflexes kicked in. She found it very odd. She had to leave. She picked up her purse and was about to leave when a man whose face was covered with a large bouquet came into the private dining space. Dawn's eyes widened.
