Two Contracts – My Lover is a CEO - Chapter 300

Yang Xinyu held her hand and nodded at his staff while guiding her to the lounge.

When Wu Lina entered the lounge she realized that it had been the way it was. Yang Xinyu had kept it exactly the same. “Don’t you want to change its décor? It’s the same ever since you have built it.”

“I wouldn’t change a thing here. All this belongs to my love and nothing will get modified,” replied Yang Xinyu gazing her with affection. He had built the lounge for Wu Lina to move in with him. It had special memories and he could have never…

Wu Lina looked at him with so much love, but she ended up teasing him, “But I love you more!”

“And how is that?”

He knew no one had been able to love him as much as she did. ‘Perhaps I love her more’, and just like that his mind got confused. He had to ask this question again to her in the evening.

Wu Lina and Yang Xinyu stayed in the lounge for no more than twenty minutes when the secretary came and said, “The board meeting is about to begin.”

Yang Xinyu went there along with Wu Lina with secretaries in tow holding the important documents. Yang Xinyu sat in the place designated for the chairman on the podium, while Wu Lina went and sat in the chairs for the board members in front. All the members were there except the persons who had sold all his shares and the person who had bought them all.

The lawyer was there as usual.

Wu Lina bowed at everyone before the meeting began and she realized that they have accepted her as Yang Xinyu’s wife now. She felt comfortable. Otherwise, earlier she was running away from all of them. It was as if this wasn’t her place to be.

The meeting began and the first thing that the members protested was where is the person who had bought all the shares.

“If he doesn’t show his face, we will complain to the industry tribunal and also slap a case against him,” said one of them.

“Yes, this is just too insulting for all of us. Who does he think he is?”

“If he cannot come then it is better that he sell all his shares to us and quit the board membership.”

“You have to tell us his name!”

The lawyer listened to them quietly, as he was anticipating all those questions. Slowly he rose from his chair and said, “My client will coming today for the meeting. He plane has just landed in the City. It should not take him more than an half an hour to reach here.”

Everybody was expecting that he would not come and so they had all started making huge plans of his eviction from the company. After all he had twenty percent of the company’s shares, which was a very large amount.

But when they heard that he would be coming to join the meeting, they became silent.

The meeting started with other discussion of matters that were on the agenda. Even though the meeting was going on, everyone wanted to know who was the person. They would keep checking their watches.

Yang Xinyu looked at Wu Lina and stared at her for sometime and as she looked at him, she found it strange. She gestured ‘What happened?’. He shook his lightly and started looking at the person who was speaking.

As the clock ticked there was anxiety amongst all as to who would that person be. But the meeting was nearing end, as almost all the agendas had been discussed. The lawyer also became impatient because instead of half an hour, over an hour had gone by but he wasn’t there.

One of the member became agitated and got up from his place and went to the lawyer. With his hands on his hips, he said, “Are you making a fool of us? Where is your client?”

Another member chimed in, “He was just buying time from us. I propose that we take action against him. These are imposters.”

Wu Lina was watching all this boardroom drama, when all of a sudden the door of the meeting room opened. She turned her gaze to see who had entered the room.

Wu Lina rose from her chair slowly as the person entered. She closed her mouth with her hands, as she looked at him frantically. She could feel that her babies had started protesting inside. They were kicking so much that she felt like puking. How can this be? Why is life so complicated?

Yang Xinyu’s sharp gaze fell on him but he didn’t get up. His eyes followed the man as he came and sat next to his lawyer.

Yang Xinyu greeted him coldly, “Hello Vladimir. Long time.”
