First Order Of Business 소설 & 이야기

Elias left the office with his awareness humming low and steady, the system rearranging itself around him in subtle ways. He understood now that fracture did not always announce itself as chaos. Sometimes, it arrived as order, claimed by the wrong hands.

When the phone clicks to show that someone answered I give my orders. “’Project Orgasm’ is now our top priority. Tell the scientist that they are to work on nothing else until it is completed” I don’t even bother to see if my lackey heard me. If they know what is good for them, they will get what I want done. This time they wont be able to get away from my plan. They wont even see me coming.

“I want every single employee and department head summoned. And I want everyone’s profile on my desk before the day ends. I’ll go through them one by one and clean this place up myself.” Lexi blinks, clearly stunned by my words. She frowns, taking a small step back as her fingers press into her forehead, frustration written all over her face. “We don’t lay people off like that, Georgia,” she says carefully. “In this company, we give warnings first.

I checked my burner phone just to check if, By any chance, Tony send me a message, asking about my health, but he did not. I was not disappointed, but it gave me more reasons I should disappear. What I learned from Oliver last night about Sara and Tony was a trigger for me.

I sighed heavily. "It's a huge sum of money, but I can see the potential" I began, trying to ignore Grace as she shouted out cheerful goodbyes to the delivery guys. Why was she so cheerful today? Why was I so in tune with her, so aware of every move she made that it sounded as though she was right next to me all the damn time? "I need a 5 year plan - what you expect to spend, your planned profit, especially in the first year. How much loss you expect to make. The first year is crucial, that's when most businesses crumble. If you can work on that, bring it back to me and we can talk" "Thank you, Alpha" Lucas inclined his head to me respectfully and left.
