The Broken Angel & Her Overprotective Brothers - Chapter 46
The huge meeting room on the twelfth floor of the west wing of the Northern towers that were located in the central park of the business sector of the city was filled with pin-drop silence.
The room was filled with the board directors but each one was looking as terrified as if they were about to lose their life at the very next second.
“If you can’t find a solution by the end of this week then don’t even think about showing me your faces again!”
The deep calm but powerful voice ranged throughout the silent room making every single person present in there gulp down their saliva in pure terror.
Every single head turned towards the man in the brown suit who was standing right next to the CEO.
Mr. Kim looked at the terrified expressions of the board members before he pulled on some confidence as he started.
“Master Sullivan, this…..actually, it’s already Saturday and this week will end within thirty hours. H-how can…..”
The words died inside his throat the exact second Kaiden’s sharp eyes landed on him.
It was like he was sliced into thousands of pieces by those sharp powerful gaze that was filled with a fire born from ice.
“I…..I-I am trying to say that thirty hours is more than enough for our capable and skilled directors to prepare this report. You don’t have to worry about this matter. It will be done by tomorrow noon.”
Mr. Kim was more than aware of the death glares that he was receiving from the dozens of board members that were present inside the room.
A small twitch appeared on the lascivious lips of the CEO before he passed a quick glance to the directors sitting around the room and after giving a light pat on Mr. Kim’s shoulder, he marched out of the meeting room.
“Mr. KIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
All hell broke through the moment their cold-hearted CEO was out of the meeting room. The death glares turned into sharp knives that were ready to slaughter the secretary who was regretting his life decisions.
“My dear gentlemen, please show some mercy towards this young man. Don’t waste your precious time here on me. Remember that now you don’t even have twenty-four hours left to complete this report. I’ll see you all tomorrow at the meeting. Good luck!”
And just like that, his silhouette disappeared from the meeting room with great speed before anyone could catch him.
The shouts and protests died inside the room as the door closed behind Secretary Kim who headed towards the CEO’s office on the top floor of the building.

Kaiden was busy in checking the files that held important information about the new resort that they were building near the eastern end of the huge forest attached to the city.
His attention was pulled out of the files when he heard the knocks.
“Come in!”
He controlled the sigh that was ready to leave his lips as his eyes registered the identity of the person who walked inside his office.
However, the very next second his entire world stopped as a very powerful but sweet fragrance entered his senses.
His heartbeat accelerated as his breathing started coming out in short huffs. The fragrance that was surrounding him started making him feel dizzy as it consumed his entire being.
He remembered this feeling. He had gone through this same thing before. He had experienced this happiness before too.
However, rather than being happy, his heart and mind were filled with confusion and a little bit of terror as he could not understand exactly what was going on.
“Big bro, I’m here as I promised. And before you will bombard me with your never-ending questions, I’m telling you that I did not cause any troubles today. I know that it’s hard to believe but it’s actually the truth. You can confirm it from your men if you want.”
Rylan said the moment he stepped inside the office and after throwing his bag on the small coffee table he plopped down on the huge sofa that was sitting next to the floor-to-ceiling glass window.
Kaiden was silent for a few moments which made Rylan look up from his phone and stare at his brother with raised eyebrows in confusion.
“Are you alright? Is everything okay? If not then don’t expect any type of help from me because…..”
He was halfway through his rant when a glare from his brother shut him up.
“Come here!”
“Huh?” Rylan looked at his brother in complete shock even though he heard his words clearly.
“I told you to come here. Now!” Kaiden’s voice was sharp and it was clear that he was not in the mood for playing around.
Rylan was a little hesitant as he stood up and started dragging his feet towards the King of Hell who was sitting on his throne.
Meanwhile, his mind was busy reciting if somehow he had done something that could cause his brother to punish him.
However, no matter how hard he tried to remember but there was nothing that he could remember that was out of the line that Kaiden had drawn for him.
“Brother…”
He trailed off as he watched the finger of his brother that was signaling him to come even more closer.
He bent his upper body to reach a little closer to his brother’s face but the very next second he pulled away with a loud ‘Eww’ as he found his brother sniffing his neck.
“What are you doing? Are you really okay? Do I need to call S….”
“Whose scent are you carrying on your clothes?” Kaiden’s eyes pierced through his younger brother as he stared at him.
His heart and brain were in conflict as one was trying to be happy while the other one was trying to be reasonable and there was his soul which was feeling angry.
“It….I-It’s a classmate.” Rylan hurriedly replied as he tried to understand exactly what was wrong with his brother.
“A classmate?” Kaiden questioned as he raised his eyebrows while staring at his younger brother.
“It’s really interesting to know that you have such a heavy scent on you of one of your classmates. Who’s this classmate?”
