The Billionaire's Heiress

Chapter 28

Five years after...

As the glass door opens, a group of people wearing corporate attire enters the boardroom.

This is the first time that they will meet their CEO.

The CEO have been very unforthcoming and secretive of what she looks like. Because no one from the board saw her in person. She just gave orders to her Vice President and her assistants about the things that they should do to improve the company and they thought that she never comes to the office.

They thought that after their old CEO died the company will go down. But luckily because of her it didn't.

Their new CEO is as competitive as the previous one. Even more efficient.

The market sales of the company went up to 25% every single year for the last 4 years that she took over the position.

She is indeed born to be a leader.

"Our CEO will be here, shortly." As her executive assistant announced.

Naiilang na ang ibang board members. They know that the CEO contributed a lot when it comes with changes, performance and growth of the company. But that doesn't mean she'll consider herself as VIP.

Oh yes. Some people might adore her, for being the youngest CEO their company ever had. She's only 19 when she took over. But many people hate her for being a private person.

The board members are surrounding the huge round executive table and waiting for their most awaited CEO.

Habang nakaupo sila lahat at nag-uusap, bumukas bigla ang dalawang malaking pinto. Exposing a  woman full of confidence and authority, wearing a signature all-black corporate attire.

It might be a corporate attire but it still shows elegance and very feminine. And a 5 inches, low-cut black boots fits to the attire very well.

And since it's all black, her wavy shoulder length, blonde hair stands out.

"Nicole Montefalcon Moore, CEO and President of RMoore Group of Companies." narinig niyang tugon nang kanyang executive assistant nasi Carlota.

All of the people inside the room stood up and show her the sweetest smile that they have. But she just stared right at them. Like she knows them very well.

She can't form a smile on her face and she knows why.

Oh, of course she knows them. Better than they know themselves.

She started walking towards her seat.

And sat down elegantly.

Lahat sila nakatingin lang sa kanya. Habang siya sinusuri ang papel na ibinigay ni Carlota sa kanya.

Ang papel ay ang mga pangalan ng board of members with their pictures and information about them.

The hell she care about this list.

She clears her throat first before placing her two hands at the top of the table.

"Call me, Miss Moore. Not Ms. CEO, Boss or Maam. Miss Moore."

Dahil sa sinabi ni Nicole, lahat sila natulala.

Hindi nila lubos maisip na ganito ka strikta ang babaing CEO, kahit na subrang bata pa nito.

Pero nasa isip ni Nicole. Hindi pa ito ang dapat nilang malaman.

Dapat malaman ng mga taong ito na hindi siya basta-basta at dapat maging maingat silang lahat sa companya nito.

Narinig niyang may tumikhim, si Frederick Montes. He gave her a playful smile.

Oh, I know those smiles.

"Miss Moore, we thought you will never going to show yourself to us, hide forever. If you don't mind me asking, what made you think to finally present yourself to us?"

Tumaas ang kilay ni Nicole.

Frederick Montes, 30 years old, shipping magnate and a playful arse.

"I didn't hide. I observed. And I'm here because it's time to clean your own shits on my company." Sagot ni Nicole na hindi inalis ang titig kay Frederick.

Nawala lahat ng ngiti nila at nagtitinginan sa isa't-isa.

"So, you're here for good?" One of the old board members asked.

"I've been here since then, you may not noticed me. Or you just don't care."

Tumayo siya bigla at napatingala silang lahat.

"I'll make this straight. Half of you people are not competitive enough. You are not efficient and I think I need you out from company."

Naririnig niya na ang mga bulong-bulongan sa paligid.

"Many competitive, efficient, rich and productive people out there would die to be on your position."

Tumigas ang mukha ni Nicole. Habang tinitigan isa-isa ang mga taong nasa loob ng kwarto na iyun.

"But if you want to stay you just need to follow one rule...

MY RULE."
