Julia's POV
I tapped my finger as all the executives stared at me. "How could you did this to us, Ms. Albert!" I sighed and stopped tapping my finger. "Your..."
"She's an Albert, Mr. Wang. At least we have more sales, profit inside your pocket, and you become rich, right?" Mr. Wang scoffed and leaned his back.
"Did you see, Jack!? Your daughter listening to her dog rather than us, who more have lot of experience and more older than her! You should get her married soon, or she keeps destroying JA Department Store."
I took a deep breath and sighed. This man, I really wish my dad doesn't choose him as the next successor. I know he more older than me, but his attitude like he was 5 years old. What a bummer!
"Mr. Wang, let's listen to my daughter first why she does that, okay? Just... calm down and listen! I know it's a risky way to gain the customer, but she's right! If we did not following trends we will left behind and who knows."
He growled and standing. "Do whatever you want! I don't care!" He left the room. My dad sighed and looked at me.
"Julia, my daughter? Can I ask you a question why you rather listening to Mrs. Albert rather than... us?" I'm straightening my posture.
"The commoners often spending their money on the lounge area, or game center. The upper class often spending their money on the restaurant rather than spending their money on the store. I asked the managers why, and all of them said they bored and too expensive. Of course they... got it from the survey they already gather for 5 months prior." My dad nodding his head after hearing my explanations.
All the executives whispering to their right and left as they waiting for the chairman's decision. I have to believe that everything will work fine if we have a teamwork. All the sociopaths in front of me always priority their ego rather than their brain. I scoffed and sighed.
What a life, doesn't it? "Do you have the data?" My dad stared at me. I'm glancing at my brother, who sweating as he read the report I gave on him. Once you told me I can do anything, but business. Let's see, asshole! Who can't do the business, huh?!
I took a deep breath and nodding my head. Suddenly, they shut their mouth, stared at me. "Please open page 23. All the data from the survey already there." I stared one by one person in front of me. It will become the most longer meeting I ever attended.
I took a deep breath and try to relax.
Cecilia's POV
I'm looking at Andrew from a far as I'm eating my lunch. Julia hasn't comeback from the office. Marco and Jane still dating, and he more romantic on her. One thing I should be mad of, why he acted different when we were together? Huh, that bitch, Jane should taste the same medicine as me.
Dumped and got cheated from her boyfriend. "Cecil? Where you looking at?" Katrina followed me to looking at Marco, who was sitting with Jane. "Do you like him?"
What?! No! I just want to plotting my revenge. "No, duh! He's a jerk. What's good in him anyway!?" I put this sashimi into my mouth. "What do you think about... Mr. Shelby?" Maybe... I should spread a rumor about Jane.
"Um... Mr. Shelby is nice. Sometimes he likes to ask all the female co-workers to go to canteen with him." I hummed as nothing happened between us. I think, I get used to now. All the bad words came out from their mouth, will become my motivation to take revenge.
Thanks to his boss. She wants to help me to prepare what I need. I took a deep breath and exhale.
I think it's time to warming out. "Do you know... Ms. Janice from the sales department?" Katrina nodding her head.
I put my chopstick on the plate and drink my ice coffee. "Before you've got promoted, Ms. Janice become Mr. Shelby's secretary and she's a bit rude for me. I don't know why Mr. Shelby so care for her and always reminded her to have lunch and not overwork." She said as she slurping the broth.
What!? "Are you serious?!" I furrowed my brow. Katarina nodding her head.
"We... often caught them making out in the toilet bathroom." I widened my eyes and gasped. What the fuck!? He... technically cheating on me!? Why!? "Lot of rumor said they were dating, but... it's never to be proofed by us."
Us?! How much people want to know that couple has a relationship?! I mean... wow. If there's a group, I love to joining them. "Hey ladies!" Andrew and his crew again.
I took a deep breath and exhale. "Um... it seems we've meet again?" I rolled my eyes. He never quit, doesn't he? Katarina nodding her head and left me with him and all his friends. "So...."
I'm standing up and bring my tray back with the dirty plate. Julia seems care to her employees and their morals. "What are you thinking?" I'm looking at Andrew, who was standing next to me. Does he has a teleportation?
"None of your business." I said. He holds my hand. What does he want?! "What..."
"Meet me on the TacoLoco's vendor, tonight. Can you?" I'm looking into his eyes deeper until I can see what's inside his mind right now?
I cleared my throat and let go of my hand from him. "We're in the office hour, Mr. O'Kenna." I don't want go too easy this time. "I don't have a time to..." I'm looking at Julia, who was walking followed by Mr. LeBlanc behind her.
Andrew took his breath and walked away as she approaching me. "Hey, how's your lunch?" She lowering her voice. I did not answering her because all eyes on us now. She always brings attention, since she to be rumored as the Founder's daughter.
"What's wrong with you?" I'm looking back and she still standing still. I think Julia.exe stopped working. Well, never mind. It's not my fault anyway.
