Having been working in the shadows for the past five years, the founder of Precious Stones Corps decided to come out in the open.

Oyxian Ivan steps out of the latest version of a black Lamborghini car, dressed in all black, from his suit to the oxfords on his feet that shone brightly under his feet. His jet black hair in a very formal but alluring style swayed lightly in the morning breeze.

Ever since Precious Stones Corp was created this was the first time he was coming to the main office building.

Sorrounded by well built men claded completely in black, he walked majestically, a step at a time towards the door of the building. The doorman was dazed at the appearance of this character to the extent he couldn't move. The body guards couldn't care less as they open the door widely for the regal figure to pass through.

Onyxian Ivan stepped into the building walking into the lobby he stood for a while savouring the interior of the ground floor of his building.

The acting president for the past five years had to leave for southern Europe for official business but due to some complications he hadn't returned. So it was time for the real boss to take over.

Onyxian Ivan turned towards the right side opposite the private elevator, the entire staff where already waiting to receive their new President or rather real President. There were about four hundred and fifty people waiting to be addressed. They had been informed earlier on the arrival of the real president. They all waited with different expectations in their hearts.

Onyxian Ivan turned towards the crowd taking off the shades he wore exposing his blue eyes. He stood on the dais and studied the crowd for a while, his blue eyes intensely staring and studying each and every individual standing there.

Everyone eagerly awaited was he was going to say but to their amusement, he watched them for about ten minutes saying nothing. The once eager staff slowly turned anxious and the ambience of the lobby became tense.

After about 15 minutes he stepped down from the dais waving his hand sluggishly at his assistant, Martin Rickarmort who stood just a few steps away from him. Then his assistant spoke to the crowd bringing the silence to an end "You can all go back to work."

Every member of the staff was in shock, what sort of person was this man. Just one thing could define him 'RAP' - Rich, Arrogant and Proud.

"What's wrong with the president?"

"Maybe he's mute, that'll explain why has been in hiding all this while."

"He's probably to proud to talk, I mean what is the need to talk to lowborns like us"

"I agree, he looked at us like some god"

"Can you blame him, didn't you see how handsome he is?"

"when he took off his sun shades I almost fainted at the sight of his blue eyes."

"My legs were actually shaking the whole time. I couldn't believe my eyes."

And just like that the conversations kept swaying from how Arrogant the president is to how handsome he looked.

But it was all interrupted by the personal assistant of Onyxian Ivan, Martin Rickarmort who walked out of the elevator carrying a deadly message with him

"The president has called for an emergency meeting with the various managers of the different departments.

That was enough to cause turmoil on the 14th floor of the building. The managers were confused on what files and documents to prepare for this meeting, their secretaries had to run around haphazardly in other to prepare the essentials.

In about 15 minutes they all went to the conference room on the 19th floor. They arrived together 10minutes before the stipulated time, however they never expected to see the president already sorted and it didn't look like he had just arrived.

They scurried to their designated seats.

After about a minute Onyxian cleared his throat,uncrossed his legs, before getting up taking a few steps to a white board no one had noticed before. On it was written: Staff Assessment

-Punctuality

-Ordeliness

-Attentiveness

-Effectiveness

-Respose time

They read it quickly wondering what point he was trying to make. Onyxian Ivan picked up a marker at put an 'X' after each word on the list without saying a word. This indicated that they lacked all those characteristics. The staff present were in shock and suddenly felt anxious to leave the conference room they hadn't even spent 10minutes in. Using the white board marker he hit the board twice causing loud echos as the place was completely silent. "What are we going to do about this." They should have been excited hearing his voice for the first time but no one knew excitement when they thought their job was at risk. His light but firm voice only sent shivers to their spines.

~Few hours earlier in Grand Crest Hotel~

Amber King had been following the Indian American actress Shanaya Starling for about a week now. She needed to find a good story and as a reporter her instincts told her that the actress was up to no good. she needed something good or else her position at the company might be at stake. Although it wasn't said loudly it was clear that she was on probation, any slight mistake and she would be on the roads searching for a Job.

She sat down in the Lobby of the hotel, a magazine in front of her face for discretion. She watched closely as the celebrity also in disguise walked into the elevator. As soon as the doors closed she ran to see what floor the celebrity was going to.

"The 14th floor." She whispered to her self, nodding gently before scurrying to the other elevator and followed her up. Luckily she was fast enough and was able to witness Shanaya knocking lightly on the door of room 1011.

Amber King gasped as she realized what room that was. Grand Crest happened to be a seven star hotel know for it's extravagant and luxurious suits and room 1011 was one of those suits. Shanaya was not even a B-list actress, her net worth wouldn't even be able to pay for just a night in the suite.

Amber watch curiously with her phone raised slightly as she was already taking a video. Although she was a little far she was still able to capture a clear video. The door opened after a few moments and a man in briefs stood by the door with a smirk on his face as he looked at the actress.

Amber could only gasp in shock, she knew this man quite well, not only her but the entire country did, He not only was one of the well know directors in the industry, he was also recognized for his philanthropy and his love for family. How is it possible that he was here in briefs with a C-list actress who just happened to star in the present movie he was working on as a supporting actress.

Making sure she was capturing everything with her phone she stood there in shock as the two kissed by the door before the man guided her into the room.

Amber didn't leave immediately, she waiting for over three hours before the door finally opened again revealing the actress once again. Amber King immediately took out her phone and began to video again. The actress was completely clad but anyone could see that her hair and clothes were slightly disheveled. After the actress left, Amber also made her way to the elevator as she played the first video she had recorded of Shanaya entering the room. She watched it excitedly, infact she already envisioned how it will be showed on the entertainment news and one the news papers.

She was so engrossed in watching the video and praising her own credibilities that she didn't notice the man walking towards her and she bumped into him. Unfortunately her phone went flying from her hands and all attempts to catch it failed. Just when she thought she had clapsed it, her fingers brushed the screen and she watched it crash to the ground.

"Oh no!" she gasped as she hurridly crouched to pick it up unaware that her aurburn brown hair had slapped the man's face who stood there watching all her drama.She picked up the phone and turned it one, just as she was about to say "Thank goodness" she noticed something.

As if being bumped into by an unknown lady wasn't enough she used her hair to slapped his face as she was pulling a stunt trying to catch her flying phone. He thought that would be all and what will follow next would be a bunch of 'sorries' from her like everyone always did. However the girl walked pass him while tapping her phone continuously like a maniac while mumbling "oh no"

"Oh no, oh no! oh no!" Amber repeated continuously. The worst had happened, she felt like cursing her hands. Not only did she delete the video she was just praising herself for she uninstalled her entire gallery. How did this happen in few seconds

"oh no! no...no...no .no.....NO!!!..."Her voice reverberated in the hallway.

Just Onyxian Ivan had decided to ignore the crazy lady and keep walking he heard her scream loudly.

"No!!!" He stopped in his tracks

'What the hell is wrong with her?" he wondered, however he continued on his way. It wasn't his business.

Few seconds after he left, Amber who was now had tears in her hazel eyes turned to look at the man who had caused her such misfortune. But she was welcome by an empty hallway, now she had no one to blame she hadn't even seen the man's face.

It was at that moment she knew she was jinxed.😩
