"Lucy… Cherry… Come here" The Boss called them as soon as they had come out of the washroom
"Yes, Boss"
"Yes, Boss"
They both said in unison by bowing their heads a little.
"You see, I have seen you guys working really very hard today, So what I want to say is.." He said and handed them a try full of wine glasses and different kinds of drink in it.
"Since both of your performances were top notch, our manager appointed you to the VVIP section and the salary over there is double '' He said and transferred four hundred Dollars in their accounts and said " This is advance for this hour… Later if you guys worked smoothly, we can give you a little bonus too... " He said and started walking "Come girls follow me"
They both were elated to get a ton of money but they both could sense that something was off and fishy.
In reality, no waiter was ready to go there, A little mistake and your life was gone. All the people there were filthy rich and full of themself. They did not treat the poor as human beings.
The Assistant manager had tried offering them even a thousand dollars but no one agreed. Then, when he saw them and thought the same but he did not want to make it fishy for them and give them 4 hundred dollars in advance and kept the rest to give it when they were done with their work smoothly.
He was afraid that they might also decline his request but he was delighted when they both agreed happily and started praying in his heart that nothing wrong would happen with both of them…
One hour went smoothly and no one made their lives difficult so the Assistant manager transferred the remaining 6 hundred dollars, but since their cell phone was submitted during work time they did not know and the advance amount of 400 was transferred to them for the next hour.
"Hi you… go and get a glass of wine for me" All of a sudden a woman wearing a beautiful night gown called Lucy in a disrespectful tone but since she had no choice other than enduring it.
She did not say anything and went to bring the wine for her.
The girl was the Mayor's daughter and was called Diana Lu. She was arrogant and extremely annoying and never had seen anyone to her level. She loves partying and fooling around with her classmates. Bullying poors and making them beg to their knees for no reason was her favorite act to do.
All this while she had been waiting for Ryan Song to come but since the moment he had entered he had been ignoring her. She was ok since he was not talking to any other women in the banquet until when he started talking to a few of them.
She had been on 9th cloud when he had announced that he was not a gay and he did not want any kind of rumours to hear. But she never would have thought that he would directly ignore her and do as he pleased even though she was the daughter of the Mayor.
She had been fuming mad and was wanting to vent her anger on someone but there were all elite and high class people until her eyes caught a poor waitress, so she had set her target to her.
Ryan was here to clear some rumours and was hardly enduring all the talks with women. He wanted to puke but he was holding back as his grandpa was keeping an eye on him, so he had no chance but to play along. And also he was here with the plan to give a lesson to Miss arrogant, Diana Lu who had crossed all her limits today.
He had been ignoring her all the time and was waiting for the best time to teach her a good lesson.
"Boss… Are we spearing Diana Lu just like that?" John asked with a look of disgust on his face.
"Just wait, I am not planning to let her off that easily" He replied while sipping the drink. He was standing near the counter from where the drinks were being served and Lucy went to the counter and said in a sweet and soft voice " Master…. Can you give me some drinks..? That miss, she asked for it" She was standing pretty too close to Ryan but he did not mind. He did not feel anything so he did not care enough to take a look at her but when he heard the manager’s words, he turned to look at her side " Miss Tang, I advise you to stay as far away as possible. She is known to be an extreme bully"
He warned her and Lucy turned to look at the side.
Ryan was shocked to see that he had been standing near a girl for around 2 to 3 minutes but he did not feel disgust or anything.
He tried to look at her face but since her face was turned to the managers’ side he couldn’t see. But when she turned her face to look at Diana, he was shocked.
She looked so pretty but at the same time cold and tired. She looked like she had been broken from inside and was just living her life because she had to.
"Just give it to me, manager… I am already used to these bullies but if you promise not to fire me and my friend, I will try to take a stand"
She said in a dull but cold voice.
"Fine, Fine… How can I fire such hardworking people… You didn't even rest and had been working continuously.. Where can I get such a good worker" He said and he was serious about it. Even if they can’t keep them here he was ready to transfer them somewhere else.
"Ummm… Just take care of my friend… It’s not like being killed would harm me" She said and left, leaving the Manager in shock ' What the hell? If being killed won’t hurt you then what would hurt you little Miss' He thought in his mind and said to himself by shaking his head
"This girl is pretty hard working but weird… Just like a walking corpse… I pray to God that the witch would not target her "
He said to himself and got back to work.
Lucy got the drink and went to Diana Lu, who was standing there fuming in anger just waiting for someone to relive her anger."Miss Lu… Here is you drink" Lucy gracefully offered the drink but as soon as she turned her face and saw that she finally had her target for the day she swung her left hand in the air and was about to hit her, Lucy lose control over the tray and the whole tray with glasses of wine and other drink fell on her.Diana was not ready for this… She just wanted to teach her a good lesson and relieve her anger a little but before she could even do anything the nasty girl in front of her had thrown all the drinks on her."What. The. Hell?" She clenched her teeth and asked in anger."I… I am so
Diana was truly humiliated in the crowd. She never would have thought that one day a mere waitress would make her feel like this. She wanted to go to her and tear her mouth off but in front of so many people it was impossible so she went away. Manager was looking at the scene from afar and shook his head helplessly… "Seems like I should double her bonus…. I feel really very satisfied" He said to himself as he was very happy by her performance. In reality he was one of the victims, who had been beaten by her and her friends for no reason. Cherry came back from her break as she was really tired so she took a 10 minutes break as she had not taken any rest in a while. When she saw Lucy squatting on the floor and sobbing, her heart skipped a beat 'Did… Did she offen
At Ryan's Headquarters,"Boss, We have started all the things which were important…"John informed Ryan."Don't mind, those people are even more out of my hands. Just send them to my base"Ryan said while resting his back on the chair."What do you want to say Boss? Why are you sending those people to the base?"John's body shivered when he heard about sending people to the base.His base was not less than hell. Sending people there means to kill them once for all."Just sent them to the base and serve them to my hungry baby sharks"
Within a week John received a lot of recommendation letters from many universities and influential people. Some of the professors even recommended more than one candidate.In actuality, John had thought that they would at least give them the real recommendations but by the looks of it, they all were from high society people and it was pretty sure that they must have bribed them to get the letter…"Damn…!! There is no conscience left in people nowadays…"John really wanted to appoint a pure and innocent person for his boss.Grandpa Song had especially given his order to do so.He wanted him to arouse his desire for the woman and then wanted him to marry Cassandra Su.
John was not ready to back down as he had finally made him agree to this and now he was going back on his words which was really not good for him."The chance was already given John.. Just told them that we have selected the candidate for the interview…"Ryan's voice was cold this time and authoritative"When did the candidates get selected ? Why have I not been notified?""Right now… Look… Call this one.. Tomorrow at 1 pm, I want to interview myself."He said and presented the paper in his hands to him.."Just who the hell this person is…!?"He was curious to know as his Boss himself had selected someone an
John was really annoyed and wanted to cut open her brain and see what the hell inside was…"So Miss Tang? Can you tell me what is more important than this lifetime opportunity for you?""Sir… As I told you I am leaving for somewhere but since you asked me, I'll tell you"She said in a low voice and stopped for a second or two."Tomorrow is my mother's death anniversary, I can even die to attend this, let alone the opportunity and who knows if I really would be able to see her next here given the Hyman's life cycle…"John was speechless, how could he possibly force her to join the interview on a day like this… But it was also the order of the president, if not for tomorrow, he would never give
John Xu ran with all his might as if his life was on line.He knocked furiously on Ryan's door "Come in!" A frustrated voice came from the other side. Ryan was so engrossed in looking at the picture of her newly selected."Boss!! Boss!!!"He was panting really hard by the time he had entered the room."Stop huffing and puffing like that!"Ryan was annoyed by all the voices as he was sitting peacefully and was looking at the beauty in the picture."Boss!!... Boss… Your.. Your first female secretary-to-be, is about to die… I can.. I can tell by the way she was talking to me.. She was extremely dangerous just now!"
Lucy Tang was looking at her cell phone in daze as she really wanted to grab the opportunity and to save and leave some money behind for her friend cum sister..After all she would have no one in this world if she would die one day and she was too naive to live in this cruel world all alone.She had been bullied by Diana Lu but never fought back and not even told her about it.She was extremely worried about her. In this life there was only Cherry who had been with her throughout the life but now.. It was the time for her to leave her and let her live her own life.Lucy took a deep breath and looked at her cell phone "Opportunity did come but at a very wrong time.. If I don’t go and meet my mom then I might never be able to see her ever.
