Third Individual's POV
Seo ya walked from left to right. 'What should I do?' she thought, biting her fingernails. 'Tyler said that the meeting is at 7 o'clock. It's currently 6:30, what option do I have?' Seo ya messed up her hair, confused by the sudden situation.
'My phone is broken, and I can't even contact Min Hyuk. What should I do?' Seo ya looked at the thin air and finally reached a conclusion.
"Where is she?" Tyler asked himself, realizing that Seo ya wasn't around. "It's already been a few minutes, where the hell did she go?" Tyler looked at his watch. All of the sudden, the door to his office opened with a bang. There, Seo ya was covered in sweat as if she was jogging.
"Where have you been?" Tyler asked, crossing his arms. "I-I... Let's go to the meeting now!" She gasped. Tyler raised one of his eyebrows to express confusion. "Ah whatever, let's go." Tyler stood up and led the way.
When they arrived at the meeting room, there was no one from the Jang Company. "Hmm, hey Seo Hyun did you contact Ms. Jang—" Tyler turned around to see Seo ya, only to see that she wasn't there anymore.
"Is he a ghost or what? Why does he keep on disappearing?" Tyler said, annoyed. After a few minutes, Min Hyuk arrived at the meeting room, with a few workers from the Jang Company. "Oh, it is nice that you've arrived," Tyler stood up to greet them.
"It's nice to meet you, sir," Min Hyuk said, sweating. 'In the end, I haven't found Ms. Jang. So I had no choice but to ask the director Choi San woo to come in the stead of the CEO,' he thought.
Tyler looked at the man beside Min Hyuk and thought, 'What the hell? I thought Ms. Jang Seo ya was a woman? Turns out she's a man in his 30s?'
"Nice to meet you, sir. Are you perhaps the CEO of the Seo company, the heir to the Jang Company?" Tyler asked with disbelief. "Ah, he's not. He's only the director of the Seo company. Pardon me sir, but Ms. Jang has important matters to attend to, so she isn't able to attend," Min Hyuk said, scratching his head.
"She knows very well that we have a meeting, but she has important matters to take care of? I see, she doesn't have any manners," Tyler said with a frown.
"Come on now, what matters is I'm here," Director Choi said with a smile. 'Could it be that, that wench—Seo ya died? Ha! Then that means that I'm able to take over her company!' he thought.
Everyone sat at their seats. Director Choi sat at the seat in which Seo ya was supposedly sitting. "Now that we all are here, let us start our meeting. To begin with, our objective is collaboration. For some reason, our stocks fell by a few percent and in order to raise it up, we've decided to help one another," Tyler mumbled.
"So, do you guys have any idea as to how we can do that?" Tyler asked. "In our side, we've noticed that the stocks when it comes to cosmetics have risen. Majority of females go to the makeup stores, so why don't we enlarge the makeup properties we have in our companies?" Min Hyuk asked.
"Not bad. Also, on our side, we've noticed that there are more people who go to the clothing stores, etc. So it's all about fashion that we need to pay attention to huh?" Tyler asked. Everyone nodded, including Director Choi.
"How about you, director? Do you have any advice?" Tyler asked. 'He's just sitting there, listening. Does he even have a purpose as to why he's here at the meeting?' Tyler rolled his eyes.
"Hmm, well I do," he continued, "I've noticed that there are less people who go to the children's stores. So why don't we lessen, or remove the children stores in our companies for good—``''I don't believe that, that is a good idea, Mr. Choi." Everyone flinched the moment they heard a voice.
"W-Who?!" Director Choi asked in rage. The door to the meeting room opened, revealing a beautiful figure of a woman in her 20s. Wearing a branded suit with a pencil skirt, flowing with determination, Jang Seo ya arrived at the scene.
The moment everyone saw her, they bowed to her presence as if she's a queen except for Tyler. "Pardon me for being late, CEO Lee," she grinned. "Ah right. I apologize for the late introduction. I'm the CEO of the Seo company," she looked Tyler in the eyes, "Jang Seo ya."
Tyler was left speechless. Min Hyuk expressed a sense of relief the moment she saw Jang Seo ya. Seo ya walked like a model towards director Choi and said in a low tone, "Well, look what we have here? I believe that the chair you're sitting on is supposedly for the CEO, Mr. Choi."
"In short, that seat is for mine, and no one else's," Seo ya said with a grin. Director Choi stood up, expressing annoyance and said, "A-Ah, you're here, miss. Pardon me." "Is there any reason why you should stay any longer, Mr. Choi? You can leave now. After all, the I—the CEO is here," Seo ya said as she sat down on the chair, crossing her legs.
'That arrogant bitch!' Director Choi said. "Haha, will do, miss. Well then, please excuse me," he said as he left. Everyone was left speechless. Tyler couldn't help but to gaze at Seo ya as if he had been star struck.
'This woman, isn't she the one I saw at the beach?' he thought. 'She was like a weak angel. But now, she's completely in another level of savageness. As if she's a different person,' he continued.
Seo ya looked at him, smiled and said, "Now, shall we continue the meeting?" Tyler chuckled and said, "Oh right. I believe I haven't introduced myself yet. Nice to meet you, Ms. Jang. I am Tyler Lee, the CEO of the Lee company."
'So this is how the rival companies exchanged hands, huh," Seo ya thought as she said, "It's a pleasure to meet you."
