VALIOR | VHOPE

II

I was ready to go out, For the finishing steps I sprayed some perfume and checked my clothes in the mirror, I was wearing something chic and perfectly designed, a purple stripe jacket with some black jeans along with simple accessories like glasses and a black scarf, I Grabbed my handbag and wore my shoes. I Walked out of my apartment and headed to my garage. 

I Started my car when my phone suddenly dinged, I unlocked it and it was messages from Gary. 

I Was surprised since he really doesn't send anything unless it's important. It was a link with a text attached to the side saying " Mr.kim Please open the link and read the article "

I Clicked the link and entered my car whilst waiting for it to load.

" Mr.Dae-Jung, the chairman of Valior, will give the company to the management of his only heir, his son jung hoseok "

I was puzzled, Why do I Only know about this now? I'm the vice president of the company Yet I'm the last one who hears the news ... Without reading the rest of the article, I slammed my car door shut and drove to the company as fast as I could.

The minute I exit my car I regretted It immediately, Reporters rushed to my side and didn't leave me any space to move, the worst way to start my morning.
I ignored all the questioned thrown my way because I didn't know what to answer. what can I possibly tell them when I don't know anything myself?

I sighed in relief when security came and pushed all the reporters out of my way.
I rushed inside the company and saw Gary walking from afar towards me with a frown on his face. I was heading straight towards my office. 

" Mr.kim! " he simply said and I scoffed " You didn't tell me there were reporters everywhere! "

" I'm sorry! It won't happen again. " He apologized " Did you see the news? " Gary questioned with a scared expression on his features " Yes! " I responded shortly.

" Get me some Coffee! " I ordered and Entered my office, I walk to the window to check and all of the reporters were still standing outside, They aren't leaving anytime soon, are they?

I turn and sat on my desk to scan some late night sketches, they are good but I can do better. 
I decided to start all over again. I took some papers out of my drawer and the pencils I needed, I noticed I was running out of the good pens and reminded myself to tell Gary. 

After minutes Gary came in with my order in his hands, " Your coffee! " He handed it to me and I took a sip and breathed in relief. " And the files you ordered! " he said handing me files with the designers newest works.

' too bright, short, lacks color, too colorful, dull, boring ' They had one job .. and I gave them 48 hours to complete it but this is the result. I could say I was disappointed, every design had a problem either with the color or length. the stupidest things.

" prepare a meeting " I requested and in seconds Gary was out of sight. that's why I have him as my secretary. he is extremely fast, doesn't say unimportant things to waste my time. 

' And gets my Coffee in time ' I thought as i took another sip from it.

I Put all the designs together and stood up to go to the meeting room. I will show them that this isn't something to play with. I want them to be strong. we have so many enemies. and a simple wrong move could destroy us.

The meeting room itself wasn't that far but I was walking slowly. when I stepped foot into the meeting room I saw all of them chatting and laughing.

" You're laughing? " I snarled at them. 

I know they are talented, I was the one who chose them after all, They had to undergo really hard tests to be able to get into the company, and now I think they took it for granted.

" What is this shit? " I threw the file on the table and all of their Drawings flew out.

I Heard gasps from around the room.

" Do you think this is a game? " I questioned but of course their heads were hung low. Gary at the side was looking at them, probably thanking his god he isn't in their shoes. 

" You do know that we have a goddamn fashion show in no time, and you hand me shitty drawings matching your shitty attitudes, on top of it all you're so relaxed!! It makes me doubt my decisions to accept you in the company! " I exploded in anger, pointing at all of them ...

I Slam my hands on the edge of the table, and they flinch back in surprise.

" Listen carefully! If You don't hand me flawless designs in the next hour, That would surely be the last laugh that escapes your mouths, after I make sure you're fired from here and homeless by the end of the week! " I Glared as they nodded their heads and stood up to bow.

Idiots, just wasting my time, and energy
