Chapter 0026
'Let's do this, Mara.' She cheered inwardly and followed Lorenzo in.
But just as they entered, they were approached by Duncan.
Duncan was one of the only person in the company that knee Amara's identity. He bowed upon spotting them both.
"Ms. Amara, Mr. Lorenzo. There's a problem." He informed.
"What is it?" Amara beat her brother to the punch.
"Early this morning the company's executives suddenly called for a meeting." Duncan informed nervously.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
"A meeting? What about? And why didn't I have any knowledge about this?" Lorenzo asked.
"Well some of the executives are against the idea of Ms. Amara taking seat as the branch's head. Especially seeing as she is...an inexperienced woman."
Amara scoffed loudly after hearing this. The nerves of those damn executives. She had planned on coming in soft, playing the nice cop, but seems like that wasn't going to be the case now.
"Someone leaves them for a little while and they all grow balls, huh?" Lorenzo looked just about ready to kill anyone as he spoke.
However, Amara touched his shoulder and smiled. "I'll handle it."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, it's the best way to show them what this inexperienced woman is capable of." Saying this, she turned to Duncan. "Let's head up."
The assistant nodded and began leading the way. In under five minutes, they had arrived at the conference room.
"...Outrageous, isn't it?" The voice of one of the supposed executive reaches Amara's ears just as she stood outside the conference room, hand on the door handle. "Children now a days think they can get whatever they want using their body. She's even trying to run faster than her shadow."
"This isn't about running faster than her shadow, Shawn. That woman clearly doesn't know where she belongs. She thinks simply because she hit the jackpot by seducing the boss with that body of hers, she's fit to lead Synergy, well she's in for a rude awakening."
"Carlos is right. She couldn't even keep her marriage together. A rotten apple like that isn't fit to lead a righteous company like Synergy-"
Whichever executive was speaking at that moment, had their words cut off as Amara pulled the door open and gracefully walked in.
She stopped after a few steps and examined the people seated. They too examined her, noticing how great of a figure she had. Despite her fashionably short height, she had curves in the perfect places and the dress she wore, a black gown that hugged her slim waist accompanied by a brown long coat, did nothing but accentuate her figure.
But as beautiful as her body was, they had to admit, her face was more so. Her hair, that was tied up. into a pony tail, cascaded down her shoulder and rested just above her ample breasts, while the light from the chandelier overhead, illuminated her fair skin, making her look more goddess-like than anything else.
They were all snapped out of their trances when Amara spoke. "You all are awfully chatty so early in the morning." Effortlessly, she walked towards the empty chair at the head of the table and sat down. "It seems to me like you have nothing better to do than to discuss a woman's body, right?"
She looked around the table, noticing how quite all the executives had become.
She scoffed. "That's alright go on, talk. But no matter what you say, I can tell you one thing, the position of branch head, is owned by this body right here. And I bet I can secure way more than that."
Gasp and murmurs filled the room, but Amara ignored them as she gazed at a leaflet before her. It was the exact same one that Elvis had sent her a few weeks back, containing information about a business deal they were currently trying to secure.
She picked it up, scrolled through it for a few seconds then tossed it down. The loud sound quickly grabbed everyone's attention.
"That's the business deal you've all
Ben struggling tooth and nail to close, yeah? Crossing her leg, she had a smug look on her face as she said. "I'll handle it in one week, using this same body you all are curious about: Now," Standing up, she looked around the table once again. "Does anybody have any objection? If not, then meeting dismissed."
