The phone really made this car ride very quickly. We arrived five minutes earlier. It was a nice classy restaurant, it's the usual. We hold the talk here everytime.

A waitress immediately led me to the table where I saw all of them. Also I saw the little brat daughter again and I swear if I could die right now right here I wish I would.

„Good evening everyone" I greeted all of them shaking their hands.

I'm totally into washing my hands a couple of times tonight.

„Take a seat Ms. Knowles" I smiled and took a seat across Mr. Carter who smiled nicely at me.

We got into a little conversation and ordered the food as well as afterwards starting the business talk.

It was pretty alright. Their daughter didn't really talk which I'm more than grateful for because her voice would make me go crazy. We agreed on working on a new project for people who are homeless, poor or in any other bad condition. We talked about a „Hotel"
So they can stay somewhere and don't have to pay thousands of dollars for one night or whatever. Something which helps the world.

That's also the first time all of the people there agreed. Of course Ms. Carter had to tell us her opinion but this woman was uninterested so I didn't give a serious fuck.

„How are the projects going with your new architect Ms. Knowles?" I smiled and crossed my legs.

„Perfect" I simply replied to Mr. Oliver's question.

„We heard a few things from Ms. Carter and how she thinks she's not good enough" he added drinking his wine.

I let out a sigh and cleared my throat.

„I don't know what exactly she said but if you look out, there are many new buildings and houses which were designed by Ms. Maraj. So there's no talking need. The result speaks for itself, isn't it?" I put on the provoked smile and faced Ms. Carter.

All of them didn't respond causing me to chuckle.

„That's exactly what I thought. My customers are happy with her work and I am. That's none of your business anymore. You have some more people to talk them down? Because if yes then bring it on, I don't have time all night Ms. Carter."

I placed my hands on the table making them into fists. They was making me so mad. It's not the first time that they're talking someone down. Sometimes it was Jennifer, then it was James and the next month it's again someone totally different. It's a respect thing and if they can't see that all of my workers are doing a fantastic job, I can't help them.

„Beyoncé let's be real, she started with sixteen, she doesn't even have all the experience. My husband and I are teaching Britney how to design since she can hold a pencil. That's what matters please don't be naive." Ms. Carter told me building up intense eye contact.

I was so ready to fight. Like really.

„Ms. Carter listen to me now alright? I won't repeat myself another time nor will I come to a business talk ever again if you you're here. It's none of your business when Ms. Maraj started designing, it's none of your business how she was in school. She is a perfect architect and very professional. If you'd open your eyes up you'd see that. I don't wanna ever hear that from any of you again. Ms. Maraj is one of my best workers and that's on period. If you have something against it, keep it for yourself." I cleared death glaring everyone here.
