"What?" Nitzan croaked as her heart sank to her belly and she felt like the floor had suddenly opened up from under her.
She wanted to believe that this was a joke somehow but a look at Uncle Yen's guilty face and Bing's smug grin as she twirled a pen around in her hand told her that this unfortunately was very true, but how?"
"How is that even possible." Nitzan's voice shook a little even as she tried to convince herself that it was all just a distasteful joke. "She would have to have my shares and get the board to agree."
Bing opened a drawer and pulled out a file which she threw on the table in front of Bing, "Simple my friend, you have been signing without reading. You are so unbelievably stupid and gullible." Her eyes glinted with satisfaction at seeing the crumbling look on Nitzan's face now that realization was dawning on her.
"That can't be" Nitzan's voice shook as she lost her composure.
"Oh yes my dear friend. All that time that you asked me to stand in for you at board meetings so that you can go and stare lovestruck at Cheng Jie who doesn't even want you, I spent that time familiarizing myself with the company and they voted to kick you out of the board." She chuckled. "It was actually quite easy, I am better than you after all."
Nitzan turned away and looked at the lawyer desperately "Uncle Yen, something can be done can't it? Please tell me I can fix this."
"I am sorry child but you signed those documents yourself, unfortunately nothing can be done." He said and Nitzan's last bit of self control snapped as she realized that he had probably been working with Bing.
"Which I only did after you brought them to me!" She yelled angrily. "How much did she pay you? How could you do this to me after my parents asked you to take care of me."
He shifted uncomfortablly in his seat. Zhi Han had indeed asked him to take care of his daughter but after Ran Bing had come with evidence of the money he had been siphoning from the company for years he had no other choice than to do her whims. Moreover it was all Nitzan's fault, she just spent her days parading herself around the city and refusing to work despite how brilliant she was.
"Enough!" Bing yelled and stood up. "This is not a market place where you can come and loudly share your grievances. If you are dissatisfied with the situation then you should go to the court."
"First you take the man that I have loved and you can keep him, but I will be damned if I let you take the company that my parents worked so hard for. What did I ever do to you?" Nitzan's eyes filled up with tears and that made Bing's heart swell with happiness.
"You were born." She said viciously, her voice quiet as she stared at Natzin with hate openly in her eyes.
This was a Bing that Natzing did not know, this evil girl was nothing like the sweet and supportive friend she had known all these years and it made her wonder if she had ever truly known her at all.
"What do you mean?" Natzing stared at the stranger in front of her and she smiled in a twisted way.
"I have waited so long for my revenge on you and your family. Your mother took away my father's love from me and left my mother all alone, all of this that you had is rightfully mine." She spat and Natzin shook her head in disbelief but Bing would not stop.
"Your shameless whore of a mother seduced my father and he left my mother all alone to have me and I resented you for that. I watched you live the life that should have been rightfully mine but I waited patiently until I could take it all back and now everything you once had belongs to me."
"I know that you are lying and I will not let you say such terrible things about my parents." Natzin shook in outrage.
The thought of her beloved parents being maligned made her go crazy. How dare Bing say something so awful about her mother.
"That is fine, you can do what you want but whatever you think about me does not matter anymore." Bing shrugged and pressed a button on her intercom and spoke into it.
"Could I see you in my office right now please?" She said while she kept her eyes on Bing.
The next moment two huge men dressed in dark suits came into the office and stood at attention by the door.
"I want you to take this cretin out of my building and never let her come within ten feet of the door and if she tries it then I give you the permission to beat her." Bing said with a malicious smile.
The men advanced towards Natzin and she took several steps back and tried to run away from them but one of the men's hands shot out and grabbed her then unceremoniously pulled her out while she screamed and kicked while protesting.
"Get your hands off me, do you know who I am? This is my company and you cannot kick me out!"
The men did not take notice of her rants and when she tried to claw at the man pulling her with her free wrist the other man grabbed a hold of that other hand and together they unceremoniously pulled her out.
"Ran Bing, I will never let you get away with this. I will have you arrested and you will regret everything that you have done today." She screamed as she was dragged through the the corridors, past staff who gapped at the spectacle in shock.
Some of them poked their heads outside the office when they heard the commotion and stared with shock as Natzin was dragged like garbage and they whispered among themselves.
"When she spent all of her waking hours stalking the most eligible bachelor in the city while throwing herself at him and begging him to love her how won't she lose her company?"
"All she ever did was throw parties and go on vacation while Ran Bing did all of the hardwork, it serves her right. I hate all this rich spoiled kids."
Nitzan was thrown out of the company and she bit her lip to stop the tears of fury that were threatening to spill down her cheeks. She immediately stopped a taxi and went back to Bing's apartment building where her car was still parked, she intended to pick it up and go back home then call a lawyer.
When she got to the parking lot and walked towards where she had parked her car, she was stumped to see her baby being hooked to a tow truck.
"Hey Hey! What are you doing?" She asked as she rushed to the man in oily overalls .
The man straightened up and stared at her, "what does it look like I'm doing lady? Please stay out of my way so I can do my job." He said tiredly.
He hated working with a tow company and would have quit if he could find something else. People always hated on him for taking away their cars despite the fact that he was only doing his job.
"This is my car, what are you doing, where are you taking it?" She demanded shrilly and aggressively pulled at his shirt.
"Listen lady, don't attack me I'm just the messenger. If you want to be angry go be angry with the people who paid for my services." He said as he took a step back from her, eyeing her warily.
"What?" Nitzan yelled in disbelief and he sighed.
"Look, i was asked to get the car and that is all I am doing." He said as he walked to the side of the driver's seat and got in. "If you have an issue then you can discuss with Zhi company, they are the ones who want the car returned."
Natzin was shocked at his explanation and he used that moment to try to get away but she grabbed the door before he could close it and lodged herself between the door and the car so that he could not shut it. "This car belongs to me." She cried.
With a sigh he pulled out a sheet of paper and handed it to her. She skimmed through the paper and saw that the car was actually company property and it was being collected. It seemed Bing had been very serious about her threat of taking away everything from her.
"This does not mean anything!" Natzin yelled and refused to budge.
Feeling irritated, the driver pushed her and she fell before he shut the door and drove away as she got up and ran after the car until she got tired and stopped panting heavily.
Frustrated and without a clue what to do next, Natzing decided to just go home and draw up a plan on what to do next so she got a cab and headed home but the sight that she met in front of the gate further tightened the hurt in her chest and legs shook in fear.
