Chapter 136 - Renata
"I got what you mean. According to the contract, I will send all your wages to you shortly. Thank you for—"
"Stop! Stop!" Amanda shouted, shaking her head furiously. Her heart thumped, going up and down. "I don't mean that way." She couldn't understand how things turned out.
Beep! Beep!
Hearing the notification, Amanda widened her eyes, the call had been disconnected. She froze, not believing what just happened. She looked at her phone, but nothing was left. She sat abruptly, tears hanging at the corner of her eyes. Her breathing became erratic. She looked for Emma's number on the phone but found nothing. But she didn't want to believe what was happening. She searched and searched but to no avail.
Beep! Beep!
Seeing the notification, with trembling hands, taking a deep breath while the tears were on the brink of falling. She opened the notification. Reading the content of the notification, Amanda shouted. "No!" Tears pouring like an opened dam. She rolled on the bed, shouting. 'I don't mean it. I'm just kidding.'
Betty rushed into her daughter when she heard her furious cries. She hugged her daughter. "M-Mom… " sniffing, panting, tears falling, her eyes turning red. "E-Em..ma.. left… me." She increased her cry by another octave.
Hmm.
Betty furrowed. She knew her daughter. She hid her emotions too well for other people to know but not from her. But what can cause their break up? She shook her head. "Don't worry. Everything will be alright." She whispered.
Emma took a deep breath, he dropped his spoon, taking a large gulp of water. He pressed a key on the keyboard and the video disappeared. He sighed and shook his head.
[[Master, Vulture had completed the contract implant.]]
Hmm.
Emma rubbed his neck. "Ok. But did he sign the second form of the contract?"
[[Yes, master.]]
"I want the CommandIntel to start running with immediate effect. Also, release a statement on our official page. Stating the fact how those three slanders the CommandIntel and get Vulture to make a statement in front of the company."
[[Ok sir. I've already prepared people for the vacant post. Sir, should I provide a person for the CEO office.]]
"I have someone in mind…." He twisted his lips and rubbed his temple. "Call Renata."
[[…Sir…]]
"Call Renata."
[[On it.]]
After a few seconds, "—He-llo… Who is this?" Renata stuttered. She was in the bar while the blaring of songs echoed from the background. She needed to cover one of her ears with a palm. Since the death of her boss. She didn't know what to do Whilst scared of being attacked by the enemy of her previous employer. Now, an anonymous caller was calling her.
"Will you leave that bar and get somewhere quiet."
Hmm!
Renata rolled her eyes, looking around the bar for anyone suspicious. "Who are you… you tell me who you are. I'm not taking an inch from where I stand." She announced flatly while her heart was pounding. Did she regret killing her boss? Hell NO. If given the chance again, she will do it.
"I kill your boss. Do you think hiding in that measly bar will save you from me killing you? You have 5 seconds to leave that bar before I change my mind. "
What!
She widened her eyes. she stared at the phone for a second, her heart thumping. She bit her lip and rushed out of the bar. Getting out of the bar, Renata finds a deserted location not far from the bar and stops. Panting, her breathing was erratic. Her mind was in turmoil. 'What did he want with me? Did he want to kill me? No. No. If he wanted to kill me. He would have done it. Then….'
"That is a good location." Emma's emotionless voice came from the phone.
"Hmm. Hmm." She looked at her surroundings, waiting for Emma to continue his speech.
"I have a job for you. Can you do it?"
Hearing this, Renata's eyes brightened, she took a deep breath and covered her phone with both hands. Shouting "Yes!" Her voice echoed through the quiet alley.
Noticing her voice was too loud, she immediately covered her mouth with one hand, looking at the surroundings while the smile on her face brightened. It was 5 a.m in the morning. The somewhat cold breeze blew to her face. She closed her eyes, inhaling the gentle breeze.
"Are you done with your charade? I don't have all day."
Blood flushed on her face hearing Emma's cold voice. 'How the fuck did he see me.' "Sorry… hmm. Hmm… What type of work."
"Killing is one of the hardest work and you did that. So why are you asking me such a stupid question? Besides, did you have a choice right now?"
Renata grumbled. "Because I kill doesn't mean I like killing. If you're not going to tell me what the work is. We can forget about this conversation."
"Good. I like that. I don't want some ignorant lady for this office."
What!
Renata couldn't understand Emma's train of thought. Earlier he was sounding like an asshole but…. "You will be working as the Vice CEO of CommandIntel at this moment. And—"
"What!" Renata shouted.
"Will you keep your voice down?" Emma berated.
"S-s-orry." Renata's voice became raspy. She couldn't believe what she just heard. Her muscles tensed, her heart pick up speed. 'Please don't play a prank on me, please. Let this be true.'
"You are part of Terra World. And this is one of the privileges of Terra. You need to sign a contract of confidentiality. You can assume the office right away."
"Sure. Let me see the contract."
"Right on your phone. You don't have time. you can check the contract on the go. You should know, Terra will not mistreat her members. So, relax. A member of Terra will take you to where you will sign the contract. Any question."
Everything was just too fast for Renata to catch her breath. She took a few seconds to organize her thoughts. So, if I'm not wrong. CommandIntel is part of Terra's world. Wow.' She took a deep breath. She knew how powerful Terra was and if CommandIntel was part of it. How powerful are they? 'So that is why it was easy for them to take down those powerful organizations. Such a powerful…' She shivered with that thought. 'Working for such an organization is my greatest luck. I must not miss this chance. I must not.' She gulped and said slowly. "I agree."
"Good!"
