The other employees were shocked and curious to know Ava's identity that caused Victoria to lose her job like that. They didn't know hear what President Gold and Victoria were talking about, but they concluded that she was someone of great importance who they couldn't afford to offend.
Victoria was in more shock than the rest. She is an esteemed employee of the royal family yet she was fired so casually without any regard for her contribution in her years of working with the company. Victoria couldn't accept such humiliation, she prided herself as an employee directly sent by the queen yet she got fired in front of many employees including those she had bullied. She swore to get her revenge as she stared at the direction where Ava and Gold took.
Inside the elevator .....
"The employees of MRC's Hq has become so unruly and wild." Ava said
"Don't mind them. " President Gold replied.
"I didn't. " Ava's reply made President Gold laugh.
"Did you know that the employee we just fired was sent by the queen?" President Gold asked while glancing at Ava. " She's one of the queen's favorite people so the Queen will definitely kick up a fuss if she finds out about this . " He said smiling mischievously, imagining the Queen's angry face.
"I didn't do anything. " Ava said disinterested with the topic.
"Meaning...." President Gold drawled lazily as he stared at Ava who was busy in her own world.
"It's none of my business. " Ava replied nonchalantly.
President Gold inhaled sharply as he placed a hand on his chest pretending to be hurt. " Won't you defend me in front of the 'empress dowager '?" He asked but all he got was silence.
The elevator lead them straight to the chairlady's office which was on the highest floor of the building . Ava walked into the office and went straight to a bookshelf filled with different types of file then she pulled a black file. Instead of the file to come out,the bookshelf divided itself into two exposing a secret room.
The room was very large and there was a large glass box in its middle. The room can only be accessed by inputting your fingerprints and also a retinal scan would be done. Ava didn't need to input anything as the room was created by her. She called it MIRROR because it was a mini reflection of herself.
"Ahhhh , its been so long since I've come here." President Gold exclaimed as he plopped himself on a large cat-like couch. The couch was cozy, so he immediately snuggled in.
Ava didn't bother responding to him as she walked into the large glass box that was in the middle of the room and sat on a large cat-like chair. "MIRROR, show me what's happening in the meeting room. " Ava commanded and a female AI voice responded . "Yes ma'am." The voice sounded just like Ava's.
A small screen appeared immediately showing the heated discussed that was going on in the meeting room.

In the meeting room .....
" Miss Yang what are we going to do now. The launch-out is three days away and we've been sued for plagiarizing our own products. " A middle-aged man in a dark grey suit said restlessly. " If we don't do something about it we won't be able to bear consequences and the company's reputation would be ruin also." The man said.
"Not only the company's reputation but also that of our other subsidiaries around the world. It will affect our stocks and annual profits." Another person said causing an uproar in the room.
"Admist all this chaos where is your chairlady?"Someone said loudly. The person who spoke was an middle-aged man in his late sixties. " As the chairlady she is supposed to be present in this meeting. " He directed his question at Rue who was sitting on the chairlady's seat with a poker face.
The man who spoke was Tyler Watson , a direct descendant of the Watson family. His family has close ties with the royal family making them one of the most respected families in California. Tyler was the head of the Tyler branch in California as the main family branch was in DC. He was highly valued by the Queen and He is one of the few poeple who had seen Ava when she was still so young but he didn't have a good impression of Ava.
Infact, he was envious of Ava because of her accomplishments at such a young age. He has a daughter about the same age as Ava but his daughter was a useless spoilt brat who only know how to bully other people. Though he loves his daughter, he wish she could be like Ava so he would be able to brag like elder Lee who always brags about Ava and her accomplishments.
So instead of acknowledging Ava he finds fault in everything she does and now was not an exception. As expected, everyone turned their attention to Rue wanting to know what she would say about the absence of the chairlady.
