A tall man wearing a fitted dark blue retro suit walked in. He had a strong and powerful aura like a king. One would get goosebumps just looking at him.
"Everyone please welcome Mr Michael Smith, the new chairman of W group".
Ann stared at the handsome face, mouth wide open with shock.
The mystery man who saved her was now standing in front of her as the new chairman.
What a strange coincidence!
"GOD, I told you no more adventures for today!". she thought
"Maybe he won't recognize me.
Yesss.. He's a big shot.
Who would remember such a petty incident?"
Ann tried to hide her face with her long brunette hair.
Everyone got seated.
His deep voice echoed through the room.
"Good Morning all.
My name is Michael Smith.
I would like to introduce myself as the new Chairman of W. I am thrilled to be here and excited about many of the things we'll be working on in the near future. If you have any questions about the future path of W and our plans, please feel free to contact me directly at any time."
After his speech, everyone started introducing themselves one by one.
Linda elbowed her and whispered. "Ann its your turn now".
Ann stood up slowly and looked at him. A shiver went down her spine when their eyes met.
Ann gasped, but kept herself composed seeing the piercing look directed towards her.
A small smirk appeared on his face.
She brushed off her thoughts and started introducing herself.
"I'm Annastasia Stephen - Head of Operations. If every one has done with the introduction I'll start with my presentation."
She turned on the projector and began her presentation.
Everyone was immersed in her lecture.
Even though she was clumsy in her real life, she was just the opposite while she worked.
She had the motivation and perseverance to handle any problem and solve it independently.
That was why she was the best employee of the company.
Ann was fully prepared and covered all the necessary details.
She stayed calm and composed during the lecture and the conference room echoed with her strong voice.
She put her heart and soul into the presentation and completely forgot about the pair of eyes looking at her with much appreciation.
At the end, she turned back and caught his eyes.
She sat down with satisfaction as Linda gave her the thumbs up.
"I think the chairman is very impressed with your performance." Linda murmured. "He could not take his eyes off you. Maybe he is impressed by the performer more". Linda winked.
"Just stop it Linda!!! "Ann glared at her.
"Who knows? Maybe he will give you a spark".Linda grinned'
Ann kicked her leg.
"Ouch!!! WT... " Linda stopped teasing.
Michael stood and so did everyone.
"The challenge ahead is a big one for all of us. We all know and sense how fast our industry is changing.
I'd like to ask for your full support.
I hope we all work together to further our corporate vision. Thank you.
You may go back to your work"
After that, he left with his secretaries and bodyguards.
"Pheww..." Ann sighed. That went well.He doesn't remember me, she thought.
Everybody went back to their workstations.
