Yun Jian’s icy voice was what the employees heard when they snapped back to reality. They were completely shocked.
That was the daughter of Hachi Company’s director! Even if it were their CEO in Dime And Prime, Alluring Demon, she would have to think twice before doing anything. After all, Maine was no doubt in the elite society as the daughter of Hachi Company’s director. Basically, offending Maine was going against the whole Hachi Company.
Dime And Prime Company was only parallel to Hachi Company in presence. Even then, it was slightly weaker than the latter in terms of international standing.
Therefore, the workers who were still in the office working overtime paused in shock when they saw how Yun Jian was treating Maine.
With her forehead still throbbing from being hit by the teacup, Maine gritted her teeth through the pain only to hear Yun Jian’s cold words just as she looked up. She wanted to shout “Think you’d dare do it?” back at her but she was met with the latter’s gaze that was murderously piercing.
Maine shuddered. The immense pain she was in scared her off from staring straight back at Yun Jian.
“Alluring Demon, my dear, let’s talk about this. Don’t be like this, it’ll break our peace.” Maier was at a loss. He could not bear offending Alluring Demon but he also could not bear letting Yun Jian keep bullying his sister.
Business wise, Maier had indeed picked on Dime And Prime Company using Hachi Company’s reputation, but he would also admit that he had done so with a personal ulterior motive.
He had liked Alluring Demon the first instant he saw her back then and had been on a relentless pursue after her but she ignored him completely.
It was love at first sight for Maier and since wooing her did not work, he resorted to harsher means. Using his status as Hachi Company’s CEO, he targeted Alluring Demon constantly. Nonetheless, it was only a touch-and-go situation; he did not dare go to the extreme—what if it drove his darling away instead and she decided to ignore him forever?
Despite that, Alluring Demon disregarded Maier’s expression of love, so this had been his recent woe.
“Scram!” Alluring Demon glared at him.
To Maier, however, the glare felt incredibly refreshing and attractive. He even thought that she looked cute glaring at him.
“Alluring Demon, dear, my feelings for you are sincere. You—” Before Maier’s cliché confession could be finished, Maine’s enraged shout sounded.
“Ge! Are you crazy? You like her? Her underling is bullying me like this—are you taking revenge for me or not?” Maine yelled, her earlier fear for Yun Jian vanishing.
She glared at Yun Jian resentfully with presumptuous threats tumbling off her tongue. “Just you wait, stupid b*tch. Who do you think you are? Dime And Prime’s director? Just wait, I’ll make sure my dad finish you off!”
Maine and Maier’s father was the director of Hachi Company.
Just as Maine said that, however, a female voice rang from behind them.
“Ms. CEO, you’re here.” This was no doubt directed to Alluring Demon.
Yun Jian turned slightly to see a girl who looked like she was 16-17 years old making a sudden appearance. The latter was Alluring Demon’s subordinate and was also from Gu Sha Mercenaries with the moniker Fox.
Fox was twin sister to Civet who had sent the Ferrari sports car to Yun Jian in Longmen City the last time. Although Fox looked like a teenage girl, she was actually already 25 years old as she had the same baby face like Civet.
Fox worked under Alluring Demon. When she saw the latter and called out to her just now, attracting Maier and Maine’s attention, she espied Yun Jian. Despite her surprise, she then greeted Yun Jian in front of the siblings, “Ms. Director, you’re back?”
The term of address made Maier and Maine gape. Fox was under Alluring Demon and was someone who had interacted with the mysterious director of Dime And Prime before.
D-did she just call Yun Jian director?!
