Genius Child: First Night With CEO
Chapter 5. Meet with you

The Louvre Gallery of Art ....

Painting competition held by the Louvre group, deliberately conducted by the management, because soon this art company will open a painting exhibition for the public and open. Anyone can display their paintings in the Louvre art gallery, provided they qualify for the competition and become the winner chosen by the group's Louvre owners.

All eyes were on Daniel, the youngest, who dared to enter this great competition. Daniel could not understand why they were looking at him with such a glaring gaze. However, Daniel remained focused on the large canvas before him. Some jurors looked at Daniel.

They all did not expect, Daniel is the youngest participant who participated in this race. When it came to painting time, Daniel made good use of his time. He began to paint according to his wishes. The painting this time, Daniel will make it as interesting as possible, so that the jury see the painting.

An hour passed, and the judges judged each painting that had been exhibited. And ... how astonished the judges were, when they saw Daniel's painting. They approached Daniel. Such a small child was able to paint with such greatness as an adult.

"Amazing painting. I'm fascinated by this painting!" Said one of the art curators.

"I think so. Isn't this the best work I've ever seen?"

"Yes, right. We have to tell the CEO immediately, for him to see the painting" the curator added.

"I'll be in touch soon." said Liem Gifran, one of the judges.

"This painting deserves great appreciation. Really, while working in art, I just found a beautiful painting like this. The painting is very, very worthy of being juxtaposed with the painting made by a famous painter" exclaimed Sarah Winn, Louvre manager.

"Mr Gavin must be proud of this genius child. Soon we'll tell Secretary Aaron to tell Mr. Gavin,"

Moments later, Daniel's painting was considered the 1st winner. The jury agreed to make Daniel champion one. Until the news of the child genius in painting was heard in the ears of the CEO, Gavin Alexander.

Gavin did not understand why such a small child could paint so well. An order arrived, saying that Daniel should face Gavin Alexander. Daniel doesn't understand at all, but Samuel tries to calm Daniel down and relax everyone.

"Tomorrow, you are asked to come back to this company, you will meet with the CEO of the Louvre Gallery. You're the winner, Daniel! You're great! It's true that you have great talent hidden away. I'm really proud of you, Niel," Samuel patted Daniel on the shoulder.

"Uncle Boss, what's the CEO? Why would the CEO want to see me?'

"CEO is the supreme leader of this art company. It's good, if the CEO asks to meet you. Maybe he'll consider your painting. Isn't that good news?" ask Samuel.

"I don't want to see the CEO myself" Daniel complained.

"I'll accompany you to meet the CEO of the Louvre. Are you ready?"

"Yes, Uncle. I'm afraid the CEO is fierce and always angry." Daniel said innocently.

"Just relax, I'm beside you. Come on, let's have lunch with the entire management and the race participants. You're the best, Niel."

"Okay Uncle Boss ...."

This afternoon, Ellea was anxiously awaiting the arrival of Samuel and his son. Ellea was curious as to how the painting competition Daniel was doing. A few minutes later, Samuel and Daniel came with lethargic and moody faces. Ellea was shocked to see Daniel and Samuel's expression. Ellea approached her son.

"Hows it? How competition? What's up with you guys? Why is your face so moody, son? What the hell happened to you?" Ellea was a little worried.

"It's okay, Ellea. Maybe Daniel hasn't been given a chance" Samuel said.

"Ah, so is sir. It's okay, because this is the first time for Daniel. There is plenty of time and opportunity to get better. Don't be sad, baby ... It's OK, no problem ... Mommy proud of you!" Ellea hugged the sad looking Daniel.

"Mommy .." Daniel looked at Ellea's face.

"Yes, baby? Whys? What's up?"

"What's? Why did you have to meet with the CEO? What have you done, Niel?" Ellea surprise.

"Because Daniel ... is the winner, Ellea!" Samuel surprised Daniel.

"Oh my God, really? Are you guys lying? I really don't believe what you're saying, sir." Ellea was still in shock.

"Yes, Mommy .. I'm the winner. The CEO asked me to meet him. Tomorrow, I have to go back to the gallery. Are you letting me?" ask Daniel.

"But why did you have to meet the CEO? Why should there be such a meeting? Niel, you're too small to do any of that. I don't want you to be burdened with things you shouldn't be going through. You're a kid, your childhood should be happy. If you focus on the art and the paintings, your golden age time will be in vain. Mommy doesn't want you to lose your childhood happiness. Never mind, don't meet with the CEO. Mommy thinks, it will burden you later. Mommy is afraid, there are a lot of strange rules made by them the treasure enthusiast," explains Ellea who is now unwilling if Daniel must be involved with an art company.

"No, Ellea. It's not like that. This meeting, just a CEO's gratitude because Daniel has worked hard to paint well. This competition, only continues until the largest art exhibition in the Louvre gallery later. And because Daniel won, the paintings he had painted would be displayed at art exhibitions later. Just like that, nothing more. I'm not forcing that. But, it's a pity what Daniel has done." Persuade Samuel.

"alright, Sir. But, just until the art exhibition, yes .. I don't want Daniel too busy painting until he forgets, that he is still a child who needs a childhood according to his age."

Samuel nodded, "I understand what a mother's heart and feelings are like,"

"Thank you, Mr ..."

...*****...

The next day ....

The meeting with the CEO of the Louvre gallery was held at lunchtime. Samuel has also brought Daniel to meet with the CEO, Gavin Alexander. Meetings are held in the CEO's special private room and its ranks. It's an honor for Samuel and Daniel to be able to walk into the CEO's special room.

During his time at the Louvre Gallery, even Samuel never stepped on this luxurious room. Samuel just found out, if in the company where he works, there is a very magnificent room, like in five-star hotels.

"Good day, Secretary Aaron. He was the winner of the painting competition the other day. I drove him, 'cause I brought him here." Samuel.

"good. But, the CEO doesn't want anyone else to come in but this kid. Can you wait for him outside, and let him into the room by himself? It's a direct order from Mr. Gavin."

"Ah, how is this? Daniel, is it okay if you go inside alone? Uncle will be waiting for you here. Uncle's not going anywhere. You're gonna say, huh?" persuade Samuel.

"Uncle, I'm afraid ..." Daniel hid behind Samuel's body.

"It's okay. Mr. Gavin just wants to get to know you, smart kid." Aaron Mayu.

After being seduced, Daniel would enter alone without Samuel's company. Aaron escorts him in, and introduces Daniel to Gavin Alexander. Daniel is behind Aaron. Daniel is terrified, as this is the first time for him to meet a stranger called CEO.

"Good day, sir. I've been with a kid who was a painting champion the other day. Daniel, his name is." Aaron said with respect

"good. Please leave this room!" Gavin's word to Aaron.

"Good, Sir. Daniel, please have a seat" Aaron added.

The first sight happened. Gavin looked at Daniel deeply. It was as if Gavin was reflecting on him in childhood. Daniel is so similar to Gavin when Gavin was about 5-6 years old. Many times, Gavin squinted his eyes, the boy's eyeballs were exactly the same as his. What an unexpected thing, Gavin's mind.

"What's your name? Why do you look like me?" gavin asked spontaneously without further ado.

"My name is Daniel. Similar you? I don't think so, Uncle. Mommy said, I'm so handsome! In fact, nothing beats my good looks. So, surely I'm more handsome, than Uncle. But Uncle is also handsome, really." Daniel replied very plainly.

Ck, fuck. Why is this kid so annoying? Dare to refute the words of Gavin Alexander! Gavin's heart in his heart.
