Chereads / MY CUTE LITTLE WIFE IS A PSYCHO / Chapter 8 - CHAPTER SEVEN - A waste of time

Chapter 8 - CHAPTER SEVEN - A waste of time

Rue sat there listening to the directors and excuetives talking. They were all repeating the same thing without any intention of finding a solution to the problem. She found the whole thing bothersome, but it was her work.

She was planning not to say anything till she recieves instruction to do so but when she heard Mr. Tyler's question, she was instantly annoyed.

"Mr. Tyler, can i ask you a question? " Without waiting for his reply , she continued. " We have always had meetings without the Chairlady's presence, so why are you adamant on the issue of her absence? Unless you have something to do with this problem. " Rue spoke coldly as she stare at Tyler with a piercing gaze.

Tyler was furious that a mere secretary was talking to him like that. " How dare you?" He roared as he banged his hands on the table and stood up. The other excuetives who were on his side , immediately panicked. They stood up and rushed to his side. " Mr Tyler calm down , you know this is not good for your health. " One of them with a bald head said.

He then pointed at Rue . " How dare you talk to Mr. Tyler like that? don't you know that he is a very valuable person to the Queen ? If anything happens to him the Queen won't spare you. Hurry up and apologize to him." The bald man said aggressively while glaring at Rue. ' She is just a mere secretary. How dare she think she's above us.'

" Yeah hurry up and apologize to Mr. Tyler you impudent girl."

Rue stared at them with a cold gaze without saying any thing. Not that she was scared by their outburst but because she got a message from Ava not to say anything.

****

Inside cloud nine.....

Ben and Ava just watched everything that was happening lazily till Ben spoke.

" Please save my darling Rue from their nonsense. " He popped a berry into his mouth as he stared at the screen.

" Mirror connect me." Ava said.

" Yes ma'am. " The AI spoke. "Connected."

****

Inside the meeting room. .....

The excuetives were still demanding an apology from Rue while subtly demeaning Ava. The whole chaos ended when Ava spoke.

" I never knew the directors and excuetives of MRC were market vendors." Her soft voice caused the whole place to go quiet. They were shocked by the sudden sound. They looked around to see were the voice came from but they saw noone only Tyler knew that the person they all waiting for had arrive.

"So you finally decide to show up?" Tyler sneered while the other members of the BOD stared at as if he had lost it. They still hadn't figure out tgat it was the chairlady speaking. " Mr. Tyler , who are you speaking with. " The bald man whose name was Zheng Shoan asked.

Not bothering to reply director Zheng, Tyler continued talking. " Miss Lee , I thought you might not show up what changed your mind and brought all way to the Headquarters?" He said smiling . Ava didn't reply immediately but Tyler didn't bother about it he saw it as an opportunity to achieve the recent task given to him by the Queen .

" I have a proposal for you, miss Lee." Tyler spokewith a sly smile while Rue narrowed her eyes dangerously.

Inside Cloud nine, Ben sat up when he heard what Tyler said. He felt there would be a good show unfolding very soon.

Ava didn't say anything and Tyler understood that she was waiting to hear what he would say. " I propose that we appoint someone as the acting Chairlady as our Chairlady is too 'busy' to focus on MRC alone." He emphasized on the busywhile staring at Rue provocatively. The other members were silent letting Tyler deal with this on his own.

On the other hand, Ben who was excited about the sudden propsal sighed when he heard what Tyler said. " The same issue again. I find it perplexing how they are able to be this shameless , repeating the same thing. " Ben said sullenly.

"What were you expecting Ben?" Mirror asked the sulking man. " Something new..?" Ben replied.

Ava was quietly listening to Ben and Mirror's discussion. " Tell Rue to leave there." She ordered. Ben frowned when he heard Ava. He looked at her questioning her with his bewitching eyes. Ava could feel his eyes on her but she ignored him as always.

"Rue, we have no business here anymore." Mirror spoke and Rue immediately got the signal. She stood up and ready to leave the room when Tyler's angry voiced sounded. "Where do you think you are going to? " He questioned authoritatively as he stood up from his seat.

Rue's face was blank as she stared at the old man blocking her path. " I'm leaving. So move." She ordered making Tyler pop a vein.

"You are not going anywhere till I say so , do you hear me?" He said through gritted teeth then he turned and stare at the projector screen which was blank. He felt Ava was watching them through it , so he spoke confidently. " Ava how dare you order your secretary to disobey me. Have you forgotten who l am? Or that my orders are also from the Queen. How dare you try to leave in the middle of a company crisis. "
