Crystalline's POV
As I enter the lobby, the employees greet me goodmorning and now in respect as I walk pass. I enter the elevator and press my floor, today I'm gonna meet the new lawyer of our family and company.The door opens and I see shabby at the desk, "Goodmorning, Nikki" I smile at her, "My schedule?" I ask. She follows me up to my office while saying my schedule, "You have a meeting with Mr. Kim at 11:00am, then a meeting with Mr. Vazquez at 2:00 pm. There are papers at your desk that needs to be read and sign by you" I nod and thank her. "Can you get me coffee?" She nods and walk off. I check the time and it's 9:30am, I decided to read the papers and just sign it later.
I was startled when Shabby bust in the door, "don't you know how to knock?" I ask. "I'm sorry but you have a meeting in less than 20 minutes" I check the time and it's 10:41am, time flies too fast. I hurriedly stand up and walk to the elevator with Shabby. "Before I forgot, he just want to meet you" I look at her with a what do you mean face. "The meeting, he just want to know you" I nod and walk towards the meeting room with Shabby, "You can go, I can handle this" She look at me with the are you sure face and I nod.
When I enter the room, I saw a man in late forties it looks like. He see me and look me up and down. "Ms. Quinn, pleasure to meet you" I shake his hand, "Mr. Kim, Nice to meet you too. Please take a sit" We both take a sit and talk.
We talk for a while and I'm getting uncomfortable by the way he look at me and he keep touching me. "I've been itching to meet you, as everyone say, you're beautiful and smart. The rumors are true, you are indeed beautiful and smart" He look at me in a flirty way and touch my hand. I take my hand away from his and ask, "Do you have a wife and kids?"
"Yes, I do. But I can forget them for you" he flirts. "I'm sorry, but if all you want is to flirt with me then I must take my leave" I stand up and about to walk out only for him to grab me by my wrist and pull me back. "Let go" I demanded in a threatening way.
"You're feisty, I like it" he touch my arm and squeeze it. "I said, let me go!" I lift my leg and step hard on his foot. He let go of me and clutch his foot. "GUARDS!" I yelled and seconds later the come in. "Take him away, I don't want him near the company. Do you understand me?!" They nod and take him away. "Oh before I forgot..." they stop and he turn to me, "the deal is off, you want to have a deal with this company because yours is going down. My father may have not notice it but I do, bye" I walk towards the elevator and press my floor.
When the elevator door opens, I walk to my office. Minutes later Shabby walks in, "What happened?" I sigh and look at her, "I knew from the start that he is no good. Before I went to that meeting, I read the papers that has his deal with the company and I observed that something is a bit odd. So I look at the standings of their company, it's so low that it can go bankrupt any time. I knew then what he need but I still meet him. However, a while ago he keep flirting with me and touching me. I decided to just leave but he grab me, so I step on his foot and call the guards. I tell him the deal is off" I finish and get back to the papers. I didn't hear anything so I look at her, "Wow! That's amazing! Are you okay?" I nod, "yes, now go back to work" she salute and walk back to her desk.
I started signing some papers and reading everything about our investors when something caught my eye. It's a contract years ago with the Saxon, hmmm...I'm curious is it still on? I read the contract and it seems like my dear sister is the CEO of the company.
I got distracted when I heard my door open, "Nikki, Mr. Vazquez is here. Should I call him in?" I arrange everything on my desk and look at the time. It's already 1pm my gosh! I nod at her and wait for him.
Seconds later a handsome man in late twenties walk in. I stand up and greet him, "Good afternoon, Mr. Vazquez. Nice to meet you" I offer my hand, he look at it for a second then shake it. "Please, have a sit" we both take a sit.
