Tina felt her heartstrings pulled, it’s very rare for her to see her father being sentimental like that

“I wish she’s here with us right now so she could see how amazing you are Christina, I’m sure she’ll be so proud” Terion said with teary eyes

Her eyes began to water too, she smiled, stood up from her chair and gave her father a kiss on the cheek and a warm hug “I love you daddy”

“I love you too baby” Terion returned the hug and kissed his daughter on the forehead, after about a minute the blonde went back to her seat

“This should be a happy day and yet we’re both crying”

 The father and daughter shared a laugh

“Well this is indeed a happy day and these tears are tears of joy”

“I agree, oh sweetie before I forget I have a something here for you” Terion excitedly put a white medium sized envelop on the table

Tina’s eyes lit up “That’s for me?”

“Only for you sweetie, why don’t you open it”

Excitement was showing in her eyes as she carefully opened the envelop, inside she saw pictures of a beautiful house beside the beach

“Daddy what are these?”

“I saw that house on the television a couple of months ago and I immediately fell in love with it. That villa is near Malibu beach and I thought my daughter will surely love it so to answer your question… yes that’s all yours, sweetie!” Terion said with a huge smile on his face

“Christina I’d like for you to meet this brilliant man over here, his name is Henry Young, he’s the chief executive officer of mortgage and the one who will facilitate the tour and will show you the ropes. I would love to do it myself but I’m too old and I feel that Henry can do much better” the CEO said chuckling

It was Tina’s first day as one of the vice presidents of Terion Bank and she was excited to learn everything about the business, the business which one day she would become a force to reckoned with.

“You’re such a humble man sir but it’s a great pleasure and honor to show your lovely daughter around” Henry said then laid his hand out and held her gaze “Pleased to meet you Ms. Kennard”
