The Villain's Wife

The Acquisition Documents that Jennie asked James to sign were immediately sent out by his secretary the day after their confrontation. However, since Jennie was not able to go to her office because of her hangover, it was sent directly to her two bedroom flat.

Jennie immediately made arrangements so she could travel and take care of their newly acquired subsidiaries abroad. Jennie had initially decided not to attend the reading. However, she decided that she owed her late paternal grandmother, Madam Kim, for taking care of her when she was young.

The three retail companies that she had just acquired from the Arisons were close to bankruptcy, and Jennie needed to focus and spend more time managing them.

She also decided to bring Irene and two other directors along who would take care of other errands.

"I want business proposals for these three companies within three days. The goal is to increase the mid-year profit by ten percent." She smiled at the group of men and women in her boardroom. Jennie's smile was plastered on her pretty face. However, it was widely known that her beautiful smile was deceptive.

In the corporate world, Jennie was known as the Empress—a queen with a deadly smile. Her smile only brought trouble to most people. Some even said that the bigger her smile was, the more trouble she was brewing in her brilliant mind.

As the only remaining Facci, Jennie was known to be an iron lady; one who surprised the business world when she started her reign six years ago. Because of her, the Facci Group of Companies saw their profits increased by leaps and bounds. In less than a year, the Group was able to enter the top one hundred most profitable companies in the world.

After five years, the Group's profits doubled. In that same year, the Facci Group of Companies entered the top thirty most profitable companies in the world. To say that Jennie was a prodigy in the business world was an understatement. Some people call her a legend, while others considered her a business goddess; someone capable of causing storms and hurricanes in the business world.

"President, three days is too much," a handsome young man injected.

"I agree with Mr. Beau. Let's make it two," she answered nonchalantly, instantly silencing the whole room. "Two days should be enough for everyone. Two days from now, I expect a polished report from finance, human resource, and operations department, on my table."

"I want market research, development strategies, and countermeasures for our competitors," she added, her gaze never leaving her laptop. She lifted her head and glanced at everyone. "Any questions?"

The people in the room did not know if they wanted to cry or laugh at the President's words. They originally wanted to ask her for an extension, but who would have thought that she would prepone the deadline without waiting for their opinion?

However, no one dared to voice their thoughts. After all, they were already used to Jennie's almost-impossible deadlines.

"If I am satisfied, I will double your bonuses for this quarter," she added when she noticed everyone's strange expression.

Jennie's words immediately caused everyone's mood to lighten up. A smile instantly made its way to the faces of her subordinates.

"Great! Now, let's get to work." She got up and strutted her way out of the board room.

...

"Any more meetings for today?" she asked her secretary after leaving the boardroom.

"No more. However, we received a couple of calls from the Arisons and a call on your personal phone... It was from overseas."
