Chapter 73 - Plagiarism!
Avoiding his question, she got off from the bike and with a fine smile she walked toward the exit door without uttering a single word.
Seeing her leaving without answering he felt baffled and stared her blankly, his forehead forming lines of suspiciousness and he bit her lips, "Please stop, Ms. Lin! Why are you leaving so abruptly?".
She glanced back at him, "I almost forget it, but I am running late for the college".
Daoming was suspicious since she left without answering him and that was obvious because even a fool can found it suspicious but what confused him more was why would Caixia let him see a flaw when she always kept hidden many things from them.
His arms folded and eyes looking at the ground, "I guess, I need to inform boss about this," he muttered.
Caixia who was on her way to the college felt annoyed by the sudden music produced by her phone.
She always kept her phone on silent but today was a different case because she forget to do so and now it become bothersome to take a call while driving.
She put her head phone on and received it while cursing the caller inside her head.
"Hello, Is Ms. Lin on the call?" asked a woman politely.
Or who else it might be? If you have called me then it will definitely be me, right! Tsk, they still waste the time by this kind of formalities.
The polite words was enough for Caixia to understand that it was a call related to business and she become more annoyed because she didn't wished to do business at that moment.
"Yes, its Lin Caixia speaking. Who might you be?" Caixia spoke formally, too, even though she wanted to shut the call.
"I am Ms. An Lin aka Ms. Jeremy, Manager Su and we want to sign a contract with you," said Manager Su.
Caixia pondered over the fact for a second and remembered the deal she made with Jeremy but she didn't expected Jeremy to sign the contract with her since she failed in becoming her substitute.
"Contract for brand ambassador?" she asked hesitantly thinking that she might be wrong.
"Yes, I am contacting you for the contract of the brand ambassador position. Your company currently want a new face for the make up product brand and Ms. Jeremy is willing to do it, therefore we are looking forward to it," said Manager Su.
After talking about the day of signing, they hung up the call and rather then going to college, Caixia turned her car to right which goes toward her company.
Walking inside her company's door, she entered her office where as usual piles of documents were waiting for her on her desk.
Si-ting entered her office after founding out that she have come back. He looked haggard because of the over time work plus his studies that he needed to complete in time.
Caixia scratched her head while smiling awkwardly since she who is the president of her company is still bright compared to him who is an employee.
"I have planned all the schedules of the conference day for initiating the new product of LLV brand. The only thing we need now is to advertise our product to the best, so have you thought of hiring an artist," he asked with his low voice that seemed to be the situation of low blood pressure.
Caixia gulped and averted her gaze as if feeling guilty toward him and sighed, "I have, so go and rest back for today, I will take care of all this task by myself".
He brightened up and a big smile greeted Caixia as he scooted out from her office without uttering a single word.
A sigh again escaped her lips as she chuckled after seeing his reaction.
I bait that if he finds out that the hired artist for the advertisement is his goddess then he wouldn't have gone back for rest, he would have decorated the whole company for welcoming his goddess.
Burying her hand in her purse, she took out a rubber band and with her finger passing through her hair, she tied it up into a pony tail.
"So, let's begin sorting out this piles of documents," she muttered as she bloomed with energy.
While Caixia was working inside her company, someone was planning something against her outside her company.
"Have you bought her workers?" asked Lucy while staring the man she have hired.
He have beards all over his face and looked like a crazy office worker who have already retired from his work.
His lips left a big sigh, "They all are just, too, loyal and won't sell us the information related to the new project".
Lucy have wished to get the information of the new brand created by the Lin company and give her to Zhao Anmei with whom she have teamed up for getting revenge on Caixia.
They wanted to plagiarize the brand and everything related to it and bring it in the market before Lin company does to destroy their base and foundation and ruin their left over reputation but it seems impossible with how her employees were acting.
Lucy bit her nails and agonized about her failure in the first attempt, "Tsk! I want her to lose her face in front of everyone so that she understand where she stands. Because of her I was kicked out while she stood happily, now no matter what happens I will get back at her".
Lucy was wearing a hat and black sun glasses to keep herself hidden and she together with the man, was standing a little away from the company and near the parking slot.
A woman walked toward them with some documents in her hand stopped in front of them.
"You? Why are you here?" asked the bribed man from the woman who just got out from the company.
She was a little hesitant, trembling, a bit scared and her eyes averting but without getting swayed she outstretched her hand to hand over the documents.
Wide open eyes of the bribed man were staring her bewilderedly and he, too, outstretched his hand to receive the document but flinched as the woman pulled her arms back before his hand could reach the document.
Lucy eyes inside the spectacle were observing her and then she glanced at the bearded man who looked nervous.
Just by looking at the documents she knew that it was the newly detailed plan created by the Lin company which can destroy the company if leaked out.
"Were you lying when you said that no one agreed to sell the documents?" asked Lucy suspiciously.
He shook his head quickly, "Of course not! I asked her before but she was reluctant at that time".
"Yes, I was but it was because the amount of money was not satisfying so, I came here directly with the documents to negotiate with your boss," the woman said bravely.
Wittily she smirked and took a step while putting the bribed men behind, "So, how much do you want?".
The woman without ruffling said bluntly, "I want triple the amount you were planning to give. Either you give me that or forget about these documents".
Lucy swallowed and looked around to keep an eyes on her surrounding. Understanding that the woman in front of her is stubborn who will not change her mind about decreasing a little bit of the amount, she took out a cheque and put the digit needed their and handed her over.
"Now, give it to me and make sure to keep your mouth shut or you know what will happen once the Lin company finds out that you cheated over them," said Lucy while staring at her keenly.
Lucy didn't knew her name but she didn't find it necessary to ask for it since she was at least sure that the woman in formal attire was the employee of the Lin company after seeing the similar identification card in her shirt's pocket.
"I know it well!" the woman replied and turned back while staring here and there so as to make sure that no one finds her out.
'Huh! She is so stupid to not even cover her face while coming here to pass this documents to us. But who cares! Even if the company finds it out, they still can't prove that there work have been plagiarized without any solid evidence,' Lucy smirked evilly as she thought.
The woman left sneakily after handing over the documents while Lucy grinned evilly as her eyes continued to stare at the documents precisely.
Caixia brightened expression soon turned off after continuously working on papers for 2 hours.
Ughh.. I am really tired! I can't believe but I want to go back to college which I bunked just to be here.
I really miss the assasination guild where I was the chief but didn't had to do this much of work. I was always free spirited and went with the flow but now after becoming a president of this company, I feel like I am at loss!
Lost in her thoughts, she messed up her hair but sat in an attention position as someone knocked at her door.
"Ms. Lin, Mr.. Wang wants to meet you and currently he is waiting for you in the waiting room," said an employee and left.
