A couple of days later, Ross awakened , and any progress had been flushed down the drain.
The incident started in the middle of the night, when Ross felt.. light headed, and started shaking.
The migraines that Ross had received the Botox for not long before had improved greatly. Yet, this was Ross's worst incident since those.
Kayley knew Ross was sick, and was stirred.
"What's the matter?" Kayley asked.
"I'm lightheaded, dizzy, and shaking a bit" /Ross admitted.
"No screwing around in the morning. You are calling Dr's B, K, and G. I want you in their offices or to at least one or two of them if this does not completely pass!" Kayley said.
"Okay, no screwing around in the morning, how about right now?" Ross said, trying to go to touch Kayley and be a comedian.
"I am not even going to dignify that with an answer or any physical response. Just try to go back to sleep if you can" Kayley said, turning over and pulling away from Ross
Ross was frustrated to the core of his soul. He had a beautiful and wonderful wife who he was driving crazy with his seemingly constant health problems. He was CEO of a major company, and a partner in an ever expanding oil and gas empire.
Yet, except for being able to work shortened days in his office, seemingly occasionally, Ross felt like an invalid.
Ross tried to go back to sleep, and dozed off. He was stirred by a light kiss from Kayley.
"You had better make sure you feel markedly better before you would even consider going near the O F F I C E today" Kayley said.
"I doubt I will unless I get out of bed, eat, and feel much better. Right now that seems unlikely, unless I go in, work a half of a day, and then do something like either 10 to 2, or 12 to 4 or 5" Ross said.
"Up to you, but as I said, be mindful" Kayley said.
"I will" Ross said.
After Kayley left, Ross dozed off. He had forgotten to call in, when at 930 his cell phone rang. It was Vic.
"I know you're the boss, but I'm concerned about you. How do you feel, and will you be coming in today?" Vic asked.
"In answer to those two questions. I feel lightheaded, and like shit. Secondly, I dont know if I will be coming in today, I would say 49 yes, 51 no, but let me see how I feel. Kayley's at work, and I'm still in bed " Ross said.
Ross was able to walk across the street to the local bagel place to fetch himself a bagel and lox. When he returned to the apartment, he ate such, and really wanted to try to go in.
Then Ross began to think hard.
"I feel like I'm almost an invalid. I'm CEO of a big company that I've expanded beyond by wildest dreams, after nearly being pushed down under with my old company, and getting it back. I'm a partner in a major oil and gas company, and here I am grounded to bed by a stupid medical condition, and migraines which , in spite of my efforts, are far from under control" Ross said.
Those thoughts made Ross, always a fighter against adversity, force himself out of bed, into the shower, and into his clothes, even though he was wearing jeans, and into an Uber to his office.
"Good Morning, I'm here, and I'm going to do everything in my power to stay" Ross said.
Ross went into his office, and saw a flashing, what looked like urgent message from Tim Patrick.
Ross called Tim. "I saw your message, is it something important?" Ross asked.
"Hell, yes, its important. The other parties are ready to sign the deal to buy our company. When can you meet, partner?" Tim said.
"Either tomorrow or in two days from now. I had a rough morning, but I'm feeling better" Ross said.
"Okay, I will let you set the terms, but only because of your condition" Tim said.
Ross sat at his desk and sighed.
Within the week, Ross would own yet another company. Now he was beginning to question his ability.
As a rough draft, and in consideration of the oil and gas, and the new company with Tim, Ross was beginning to,..,. consider hiring a person to evaluate RossShell to perhaps break it up into departments, and scale it down some.
It was a thought Ross hated from the core of his soul. Yet, in consideration of his health, and all that was going on, Ross was beginning to realize that he might soon have little choice.
When Ross went to Shun Lee Palace alone that afternoon, he ate his food, and became really, downhearted about his health, and what he might have to do with RossShell.
Yet, Ross knew that he might not be able to "Have his cake and eat it too" Ross loved the oil and gas business, which was going better than ever. He had two top notch partners. in both ability, knowledge, and character, who were basically running the day to day operation of the company, with Ross only being present for oil and gas presenations, and Ross was collecting huge checks from the venture every month.
Ross felt okay enough to remain in the office until six. Before his cell phone started ringing with hysterical phone calls from Kayley, Ross packed up, texted Kayley that he was on his way home, and jumped into an Uber.
When Ross arrived home around seven, Kayley went to kiss Ross. Ross seemed almost disintrerested in the kiss, and instead reached into his briefcase, and tossed Kayley the RossShell potential scale down plan to her.
"What is this?" Kayley said.
"Exactly what you've always wanted. A plan to potentially scale down RossShell, on two conditions. First, I and anyone who works with me, has full authority to do so. You are not involved and do not have any decision making on what I do, and what I sell off if anything. Two, the oil and gas is not included in this in any way. Fritz and Steve run the day to day operations of that, except for the shows I do with them. Thus, I do not overwork myself with that anyway" Ross said.
Kayley felt a little hot under the collar, but did not escalate things.
"First, this is not my fault, Ross C. This is your unfortunate health situation. Two. Why would I be involved in this decision? I dont know a fucking thing about RossShell or the oil and gas except that I would own them if God Forbid you Die, which, whether you believe such or not, I hope does not happen for many years" Kayley said, calmly, but with a tone of hurt in her voice.
Ross nodded his head.
When Ross and Kayley got into bed that night, Ross went to touch Kayley, but she pulled away.
"No, you cannot do that. You cannot say what you did to me tonight, and then just expect me to spread my legs, and be your sex on demand slave. It does not work that way. You have no idea how hurt I am right now" Kayley said, in a very emotional tone of voice.
"Kale, I'm sorry. I honestly did not mean it in the way that you took it, or to hurt you. Can you understand that?" Ross asked.
Kayley sighed. "Ross, I know that this decision was an extremely difficult one for you, and that you are going through hell with your health. I'm right there with you involved in it, and witnessing it. I can and will help you in any way I can, but please understand that this whole situation affects me to the core of my soul. I cant and wont go through this with you, if you start blaming me for it, or have to make any changes in your life , or RossShell in any way" Kayley said.
Ross kissed Kayley on the top of the head.
"Okay, I know, and I understand"
After that.. honest conversation, Kayley went near Ross.
"You are so fucking lucky that I am such a forgiving wife, and so turned on by you. Do me a favor, partner for life, if you can and feel like, just shut the fuck up, tear off my clothes, and do me in my wet pussy. I am busting" Kayley said,
Ross laughed and began to pull down Kayley's panties, and take off her shirt, as he got naked himself.
"Within a very short time, I can almost guarantee that you will be having a fairly big orgasm" Ross said, as he began to enter Kayley with his penis, and she became more and more wet before orgasming.
After having sex, Ross and Kayley held each other, and Ross kissed her.
"Can you please forgive me for acting like such a big asshole?" Ross asked.
"You have already been forgiven or I would not have let you fuck me" Kayley said, snuggling up with Ross.
After a bit of a restless night's sleep, Ross was stirred at eight am, by a call from Fritz. It was Saturday, so Kayley was home.
"Sorry, bud is it too early?" Fritz asked.
"I was sort of up, but Kayley's sleeping, give me a minute, and I will take this in the den" Ross said.
When Ross went into the den, he called Fritz back.
"What is up so early on a Saturday?" Ross asked.
"Let;s just say that a lot of things are going on down here, mostly good. Would you please be able to come down for maybe two or at most three days on
Monday, ? I know you have not been feeling well, and have been with us via Zoom and phone, but we really need to see your face" Fritz said.
Ross sighed.
"I'm going to say that I will try my best. Please dont hold me to that. Its too early to see how I will feel yet" Ross said.
"Okay, I will accept that answer, and will talk to you Monday" Fritz said.
When Ross got back to the bedroom, Kayley had been stirred.
"Who was that so early on a Saturday?" Kayley asked
"Fritz. He just wants to plan a Zoom meeting on Monday with some potential people. Overly excited to call so early" Ross said, getting into bed and staring at the ceiling.
Would Ross really consider going to OKC with how he had been feeling? How was Ross really feeling, and how would he be feeling?
That remained to be seen.
The incident started in the middle of the night, when Ross felt.. light headed, and started shaking.
The migraines that Ross had received the Botox for not long before had improved greatly. Yet, this was Ross's worst incident since those.
