The CEO’s Lovely Wife - Chapter 250

“Young master.”

The urgent call of Assistant Yu immediately caught Lexus’ attention as soon as he arrived in front of his office. His eyes looked distant and uninterested. His hair was combed sideways and his hands were shoved into his pockets, looking cool and languid.

“What is it that made you look like a complete mess?” Lexus commented and walked passed by him and took off his coat and hang it on the rack.

Assistant Yu felt like his forehead was covered with thick sweat as panic showed on his restless actions. He felt helpless. “Young master, I had just received news that the President and CEO of the Halo Company had already resurfaced.”

Lexus paused in his actions for only a split second before he continued and sat on his chair.

“Isn’t that just a position with no one holding it?” He lazily said.

“That was until today. The person had stepped forward and revealed himself.” Assistant Yu wiped his sweat in nervousness.

Lexus was becoming annoyed at how Assistant Yu was acting. He does not want to run in circles. “Just go straight to the point.”

“The thing is…”

Meanwhile, in the Halo Company, meeting room.

“Hmph.” He snorted. His eyes slightly squinted as the smile on his face stretched even more making creases on his face. “Is that how you greet your father at the same time to your President and CEO?”

“What do you mean by that?” She gave Peizhi a hard look, showing that she was not at all intimidated. Well, she really wasn’t. Never.

She almost snorted derisively. ‘Father? I no longer had a father since I was young. He died along with mother.’

“It’s exactly as I had said. I am the President and CEO of this company. The owner of this company.” He proudly declared. He sat comfortably at the center of the U-shaped table and gestured his finger. A lawyer stepped in and brought out a doc.u.ment from his briefcase. He passed the doc.u.ments for all of the heads in the room before retreating on the back.

“What—” The directors and assistant directors all have been astonished. All they knew about their president and CEO was a woman. But what kind of twist was this? However, looking from the doc.u.ments, it seemed like it was true. There was no mistaking it.

They did not know what to do at this point.

October looked at the doc.u.ment on her hand and trembled. She looked hard at it and her eyes kept on flickering. Shew could not believe it at all. She could not accept this. It was unthinkable. Just…how can this happen? How can such a coincidence be like so?

“However, Miss Park. No, rather, Mrs Song, how can you be so late for our first meeting? You made us wait for quite a while. Aren’t you being too conceited?” He coldly chuckled.

A small commotion descended in the meeting room. They were confused as to what Peizhi was talking about. Only Director Sheng, the direct superior of October, was not surprised about this. However, his face was covered with frost as he showed his great distaste and hate showed on his face. He had never like the guy. He could not understand why a father would treat his own child, his flesh and blood, so coldly.

The directors in the meeting room, including the assistant directors, also felt cold. Although they were not close with October like Director Sheng, they value her and have good impression on the young lady who was hardworking and was good with her work.

“…I’m sorry, President. I will be more mindful next time.” She slightly lowered in her head to hide the discomfort she was experience.

October knew that whatever she said, it would only turn into an excuse and would then be frowned upon. Peizhi especially would find fault of her.

‘So the company belonged to mother? What is the meaning of this?’ She thought to herself. She did not say anything further and just sat down to wait for whatever was in store for them…no, for her.

Peizhi harrumphed with a haughty look on his face. He showed an arrogant smile. ‘That’s right. Lower your head to me for I am your superior. You think that you had already won and trampled over me? I’ve tasted dirt for a month but now I’ve come back, stronger and more superior.

“Report to me the progress for this month. I want to know.” He said and leaned his back on his chair. He scanned the crowd before him, but this was just his act. He had never thought of thinking of picking one of the directors to start the report. Soon, his sharp eyes stopped on the expressionless woman sitting nonchalantly on her seat, as if she was not part of the meeting at all.

Peizhi smiled. “Assistant Director Song, you start.”

Director Sheng immediately stood up, against about all of this. “Mister Park, Director Park is not in the position to do the reporting. If you want to know the progress of the Marketing Department, then I would gladly do so.”

Peizhi frowned. He had already said to them, as clear as day, that he was the President and CEO of this company yet someone still had the audacity to show his clear dislike to him. ‘That’s okay. I’m not that surprised to have some people show their unwillingness under a new person who had suddenly appeared. That’s understandable. But that doesn’t mean that I would let them go.’

“Director…Sheng, I didn’t ask you.” He narrowed his eyes at him and looked at October with a gloomy look on his face. “Assistant Director Song, are you saying that you are not aware of the work and progress of the marketing department? If you are too burdened by your work, tell me now and I can help you with that.”

He sounded like he was offering her some help by lighting the load of October’s work, but his words were in fact filled with thorns and mocking. If October would really accept it, that would only mean that October was sot suitable to her position and that she should just give the position to someone more capable.

He smirked.

“Very well.” October did not flinch from his face filled with ridicule. She really found it funny. How can this middle-aged man who was twice his age act more like a kid than her? And this was her biological father? She does not want that.

And so, October started to report the things that had happened. There were some troubles but she had dealt with it. How can she not know all of this when she was the very person who would check and review the doc.u.ments before forwarding it to Director Sheng?

This was easy. Does Peizhi think that something like this can trample her? No. It takes more than that to ruin her.

There was no gap in her report. She even included some reports from the fast two months and connected with the other departments, specifically the accounting department which she also gave some helping hand.

She was confident. She was not at all showing uneasiness or nervousness. She even looked at Peizhi with a straight face as if trying to provoke him, saying “Is this all you can do?”

Yes, October was surprised by the fact that the Halo Company that she had worked for belonged originally to her mother. It was some kind of fate that brought her to work here.
