Chereads / Life As A Cannon Fodder / Chapter 3 - Any Questions?

Chapter 3 - Any Questions?

I took a deep breath then knock on the door four times. After that, a voice is heard.

"Come in!!" A cold voice sounded from the other side of the door. After getting permission, I open the door confidently.

"Good afternoon, President!" I greet her first which got me her attention. She looks amused when I called her normally. And when I said Normally, It means normal.

The original owner used to call her in a sexy way.. 'What an embarrassment' I thought. I give the President a professional smile as I walk closer towards her desk.

"This is the report that you need today". I place the file on her working desk in front of her then took one step back.

The President looks at me with a playful smile. I return her smile with an open mind. The President is really pretty but her face is also hiding her original temperament. The original owner is too stupid not realizing that earlier.

She is smiling, but her smile doesn't reach her eyes. Her eyes are staring at me coldly but it still has a hint of playfulness. The President is one of those with recessive genes. She has original Red hair which is proved to be rare. It gives her a different aura with how she always acts.

But luckily, the body I'm occupying is not worse in terms of beauty compares with the president.

"Well... If there's nothing, I will be on my way first!" I turn my body and walk towards the exit."

"Oh? Is that all..." The President's voice rang. I stop walking and smile before turning half of my face.

"Is there anything you need?" I asked despite knowing what she means.

"Isn't there any new trick that you want to use today?" She asked.

I turn my body and look at her face. The President is leaning on her chair. Both her hand resting on the arm supports on her left and right.

"No need for that anymore.." I told her with a smirk. The president looks at me with one eyebrow raised.

"I've already got what I need." I smile at her and walk towards the exit without looking back, not waiting for her reply. I was about to open the door and my hand almost reach the doorknob when the door opens!

*Bam*

The door hit me right on the forehead.

"Uff...." I tilted my head to the back to reduce the hits momentum and step back a few times while rubbing my forehead. I can't help but glare at the person who opens the door without any heads up.

"Oh.. you..." Somehow I can't hold back my annoyance toward her. I frowns and speaks coldly at her. "Miss Ashely... I know that the President is your girlfriend, but, I appreciate it if you knock on the door or at least open the door slowly." I spit out the words one by one with gritted teeth as I rub the painful spot on my forehead.

When I look at Ashely's face, she is also looking at me with contempt. Yeah... I don't care. " I will take my leave". I was about to walk out of the office when the president calls.

"Stop right there... I'm not finished yet".

I sigh before turning around and walk towards her again. But, instead of standing near her desk, I sit on the couch in front of her desk.

I'm very annoyed so I will forget my original plan of making a good impression. Fired me... I don't care... I can live as a writer or invest in good company or something.

I lie down on the couch not caring about the weird look the President and her girlfriend give me.

"What is it..." I asked without looking at their face. I close my eyes while using both of my hands as a pillow. Because of my long legs, I have to put them on the armrest.

"Hey... Aren't you too relaxed inside your boss's office?" The President asked.

"Yeah yeah... Just get to the point..." I wave my hand and ignore her remarks.

"You.....!!" The president seems to choke on her words. I take a glance and see her face frowns.

"You don't think I couldn't fire you!!? I can make sure you cannot return to this circle anymore if I want to!". She smiles mockingly, believing that she has the uppers hand in this situation, which make me rolls my eyes.

If it's the original owner, she might feel weak in her knees and slumped to the floor right away. I don't care. I'm just lying on the couch and vibing to the sounds of the air-conditioning.

"Your company has a stable income, besides, you has made many successful investments including the increase of the stock price, I can just invest in your company too," I reply while staring at my nails. Huh.. the original owner has pretty fingers and fingernails. Unlike my original body, there are many scars on my hand and there is no time to wash my hands so, It was full of the enemy's blood.

"Oho... You believe you have what it needs to invest in my company?" The president asked again... her smiles stiffen a little though.

" Just get to the damn point... This topic is very boring.. you also need to give attention to your girlfriend.. so, just hurry up if you need anything!!" I let out a heavy sigh when the president keeps talking about this boring topic.

"Who sent you here...." The president asked after a heavy sigh.

"Ugh... You already know the answer but still asks... Can you not be more boring right now!!?" I grumble as I close my eyes with my arm.

"Why do you want to seduc— Wrong question!!! Ask another one!!" I cut her sentence.

"....." I smile when I saw her ugly face. When I look at Ashely's face, she is also glaring at me. I saw her ears are red, Heh... she must be shy when I mention the president need to give her more attention. cute.

"What did you get when that man offered you this opportunity?"

"Ugh... Why you always ask the question that you already know the answer to... Fine!!!! " I get up in frustration and lean on the couch. I cross my arm and put my right leg on the left leg.

" As you already know, your girlfriend's uncle sent me. He will give me 5 million. 2 500 000 when I accept his offer, and another 2 500 000 if I succeed. He wants me to seduce you to find out whether you like women or not and as we all already know... you do like women more than men.

"It's one of his experiments to find out whether you love his niece or if this just one of your tricks because you used to hate her and bully her before."

"If you don't love her, he will use this chance to work with you so he can suppress your girlfriend in the Zimo company and become the CEO instead".

"He sent me to test you." After I said that...I see that both the president and her girlfriend's face look ugly.

I shrug and stare at their face. Waiting for their next reaction.

"What do you mean when you already got what you want?" the president asks again with a serious face looking at me straight in the eyes.

"Pshhh... I smirk mockingly at her. " You are boring... " I yawn and stretch my arms before looking back at her face.

" It's clear that you like girls. You have a girlfriend now. Why should I keep seducing you when the mission is accomplished." I rolled my eyes when I thought about the original owner's actions.

Even in the beginning, she did not have to seduce the president, It's clear that the president loves Ashely. But, the original owner is really stupid.

"That's all... any questions?" I asked lazily as I lie down on the couch again.

".... that's all, you are free to go now." the president waves her hand gesturing for me to get out of her office.

"Sorry president! I think I have a fever." I pretend to smile pitifully. " I will sleep first, Bye!" The President's girlfriend ugly expression is the last thing I see before I close my eyes.

God knows how long I sleep. When I woke up again, it's already time to go home.

"Satisfied?" That voice again.

"Thanks for letting me sleep here, President!!" I get up from the couch and stretch for a few minutes. When I look around the office, I realized that there is only me and the president.

"Where is your girlfriend?" I asked. It's not like I am curious, just wanting to strike up a conversation.

"She is in the toilet."

I hum at her answer.

"You are weird today..." Said the president.

"I'm just tired..." I replied while leaning on the couch.

"What are you going to do now that you have finished your job?" she asked.

"... I guess I will continue living as a working machine, Obtain a lot of money, maybe going on a few trips, watching the drama unfold, you know.. the usual." I stare at the ceiling of the office blankly as I answer her question.

It's not like this is my own life. I'm only living here as a punishment for a mistake I had done in the past. Of course, I don't tell her that.

"What about you president?" I stare at her face. " What are you going to do after you have solved all of your jobs and problems?" Right now, the sun is starting to set. The Light the sun emits is bright but It makes the office looks lonely and sad. Especially when the light is reflected on the president's face.

The office is quiet mostly from all of the workers went home.

The president looks taken aback when I asked her the same question. She must have never thought about what will she do after everything she works so hard now are finally over.

"I...— What are you talking about?" It was Ashely. The president's girlfriend.

I smile and nodded at her politely before turning my face at the president. "I will take my leave first President! see you next week at work!" After that, I stand up and walk straight to the exit. But, before I walk out of the office, I stop.

"President, you owe me that last question. I hope you can give me an answer as I am pretty curious." After that, I leave the office. I can still hear president's shout behind the office door.

"THE HELL YOU MEAN NEXT WEEK! YOU HAVE WORK TOMORROW!!!"

I ignore it and walk straight towards the elevator.

When the elevator doors closed, My face turns cold. "I wonder if there are more exciting things in the future?" I pretty much have avoided a big flag towards the original owner's misery. "That's easy". I sigh.

"Whatever... Let's go home and sleep first."
