Sasha's POVToday was Dragon Corporation’s annual board meeting and I was supposed to attend it on my first day at work.I didn’t want to look too exotic, so I grabbed a simple white shirt, a brown skirt, and a simple shoe and put them on. I always wanted to be that humble boss who didn’t tramble on their subordinates and so I decided to look like one. It’s that kind of Steve Jobs feel I wanted to have on me. Also, I wouldn’t move along with any guards today so I could be super humble and down to earth. Well, let’s see how that pans out today. I stepped out of my room, walked down the stairs, attended to the greetings that were directed toward me, and walked forward without a dent of doubt that indeed today would be a fabulous day.I drove to the company early in the morning. As soon as I stopped and was ready to enter the building, the security guard stopped me."I'm sorry, Sasha. There's an order. You can't go in!""This company belongs to my husband and I have every right to go
Sasha’s POV“What if Valentino had placed me in charge of the main Dragon Corporation, what could I have faced?” I thought to myself. I was only made head of the next subsidiary under Dragon Corporation which was Rex Corp., and here is what I am facing. Everyone was at a loss for words, shocked that I had brought Valentino to help.In the market, Valentino is omnipotent!All the shareholders and directors felt a kind of shuddering fear facing this young business tycoon, and now he stood in front of them, protecting the woman they ridiculed!Several directors and shareholders all smiled at Valentino."How did Valentino come to Rex Corp? He’s not been here in five years," someone asked, forcing a smile."Hey, you, yes, you right there? Why do you all act like you own Rex Corp?" Valentino looked coldly at the shareholders and directors."Well, we all have shares," they said in a chorused manner."Yes, you have shares, but Sasha seems to have more shares than you. Why don't you let Sasha
Sasha’s POV"Yes, thank you," I said, bowing my head and repeating my gratitude.When the porridge was served, I focused on eating it.Valentino advised me on several things to be mindful of, emphasizing that I shouldn't appear weak in the company. He suggested I adopt a more professional look, mentioning that black clothes convey strength."High heels are a woman's weapon. If you go to the company in casual clothes and flat shoes, you'll naturally be looked down upon. Even if you don't feel like a strong woman inside, at least make yourself look like one. Your appearance can intimidate people first," he kept advising.I listened carefully while drinking the porridge."I remember everything. I'll buy the right clothes tomorrow," I said.Valentino nodded."Well, I don't know much about the company. What should I do when I go there tomorrow?" I asked, looking at him for guidance.I felt clueless, like an idiot. I didn't know what to do once I was at the company."Set up your chairman'
Sasha’s POVOn my first day in the company, I sat in the chairman's office while Valentino stepped up to straighten things out for me.Several assistants in the secretary's office were directly dismissed.Some old employees were also let go because they didn't cooperate with me.Valentino informed a large number of absent senior managers and old employees that if they didn't want to stay at Rex Corp, they could leave immediately.As the new chairman, my actions sparked dissatisfaction among the employees, but they also pushed everyone to work for me.Anyone who was not willing to work well was shown the door.Some people asked me how the company would operate with so many employees gone. I simply told them, "Business as usual. Open positions will be filled immediately."The first day went relatively smoothly.I also asked Jared to find some bodyguards and secretaries.In the next few days, with Valentino's help, I managed quite well. With Valentino's assistant by my side, the employe
Sasha’s POVI managed to grab my phone and dial Valentino's number, but before I could say much, the phone was snatched away from me and smashed by the men in black.Then, I was forcibly dragged into a car by them. Faced with their strength and skill, there was no way I could resist."Who are you guys and where the hell are you taking me?" I asked, trying to keep calm as they pulled me into the car, but none of them responded.One man in a black suit drove while another sat beside me in the backseat, both keeping a watchful eye on me.The car sped along the road. I began to suspect that the kidnappers were from my own company, perhaps dissatisfied with my leadership at Rex Corp and resorting to kidnapping to force changes."Are you from the company?" I turned and asked the man beside me.I was relieved that it wasn't some random criminal kidnapping me. If it were, my situation would be much worse.They remained silent and professional throughout the journey.Soon, the car pulled into
Sasha’s POV"Kill her; break her bones with all your might!" Mr. Joe exclaimed as he examined his injured hand, tears of pain nearly escaping.This woman is like a wild animal. How dare she bite me?With a chilling state. I fixed my eyes, burning with a determination that promised I would haunt Mr. Joe even in the afterlife."What are you looking at?" Mr. Joe roared, rising from the sofa and slapping me across the face. "I offered you a hand, and you bit me instead!"Several bodyguards lunged at me, tearing at my clothes. They ripped them away in an instant, exposing my trembling shoulders.His men gazed upon my smooth, delicate skin with hunger in their eyes. Even with his injury, Mr. Joe couldn't help licking his dry lips. "Damn, she's beautiful, with flawless skin and body. It's hard for anyone not to want a taste." Mr. Joe squinted at me.I turned my head slowly, meeting his gaze with an intensity that sent a chill down his spine. Without uttering a word, I exuded a silent streng
Why does life always have to be so cruel? I never thought my life would end like this. I am drowning in my thoughts, awaiting death, which is yet to come. My luck is down. Being the only daughter of some runaway parents, I had to fend for myself as well as my elderly grandma, who I lived with. That was fair enough to deal with, not until some random men with guns I've never come across came crashing through the front door, roaring about the debt my runaway father owed them. Not likee I cared about reimbursing it, but I was left with no choice when I heard the geezer had used my grandmother's house as collateral for payment, and failure to repay the money would result in our homelessness. "Sasha, it's your shift. Those men are hungry." I finally remembered the work I had acquired. A modest girl like me working as a waitress in a strip club was a joke. The never-ending gazes of men hungry for sexy women to have a one-night stand with were one of my biggest problems, and it wasn't go
"Leave her alone; she's mine." The voice echoed, causing Dave to flinch a little. I looked up to see my savior, the man who came running to save a mere waitress in a strip club from the hands of Dave Mariel. My eyes fell on his muscular body, which beamed out from beneath the black T-shirt he was wearing. "No one can save her from my grasp." Dave wasn't willing to give up, and I was too shocked to lift a finger. With a single move of his fist, Dave came crashing to the floor with blood oozing from his noserils. "Are you okay?" he asked. There I saw it—his brown eyes, which had a gentle spark that gave him a handsome look. His broad chest, which any lady would crave, and his muscular arms, which would definitely be comfortable to sleep in, His only flaw was the look on his face, which was so scary.I gazed into his eyes as he offered me his hand. I wasn't going to take it; all men are the same: perverted, derailed, and lustful. He moved closer, lifting me off the ground and carrying
