Chapter 2: Chapter 2 – Black Faced Bastard
The shareholders’ meeting ended in a dull note. Feng Mei slowly got up and flipped her bangs from her face. All the while, Eliot watched her with scrutiny.
“Are you happy now?” she taunted the blank faced bastard. His impassive blue eyes peered at her without blinking.
“I’m not. This isn’t what I wanted,” he said clenching the meeting papers tightly.
Feng Mei laughed out loud. Of course it wasn’t. He wanted her to run deeper in ruin and misery. It had always been his goal, after all.
Her stepbrother who she didn’t share any blood relation with has always been her doom. His mother was german and his real father, no one knew who it was. So he inherited her eye-catching ginger hair and blue eyes. As a kid, he looked more angelic.
So when Eliot initially came to their house, Feng was ready to accept him as her family.
But the next day he broke grandfather’s antique vase and lied that she did it. Of course she denied it but and no one believed that it was possible for a six-year-old child to lie.
.....
She was punished instead. It was just one of those instances. There were so many that happened in her fifteen years of life with him.
Her phone rang loudly, snapping her out of her thoughts.
Controlling her dark thoughts, she connected the call.
“Ms. Feng, as you instructed, I have set up a meeting with Mr. Ling. its today at noon 11.30 am,” her assistant Lous said.
“Hmm, good work,” she said calmly.
“Who was that?” Eliot whispered, peering at her through his spectacles.
Throwing a glare at him, she walked out without a word.
Walking out the meeting room, she cussed out loud. Her luck had been in the dump for a while now, and this meeting proved her conviction further.
she quickly called her assistant and told him to push the meeting time to 12pm. it was 11 am If she could rush ahead she would be able to make it.
This meeting will change her luck for sure. Mr. Ling a college student had developed and submitted a new love game to her company. First glance itself she could see its potential. This new game it will definitely be the next trending that’s for sure.
If she could sign this game, it will definitely change her standing in the company.
“Yes, I can do this!” she cheered herself on and strode away.
Eliot watched her from the door. He still held the bunched up papers in his hands. “It’s not what I wanted,” he whispered slowly.
Feng Mei left the hotel and got in her car. Mr. started the car, but the car was not starting. She cussed out loud and ran out to hail a cab. Since it was lunch hour, most of the cars were full. She stamped her foot and stood near the curb. “Fucking luck,”
Just then a Ferrari stopped in front of her. The windows rolled down to reveal the stupid face of Eliot wearing shades. “Get in,” he said.
Fend Mei stood firmly. ‘As if I would get in your car,’ she internally said, glancing at his smug face.
“It’s going to rain soon do you want to get a free shower,” Eliot said with a chuckle.
Feng Mei gritted her teeth and glanced up at the sky. The sky, which was clear till now, was starting to become cloudy. ‘I....I don’t have anything to say,’ she resigned to her fate and hot in her enemy’s car.
“Where to?” he whispered.
“Office,”
Eliot cranked up the radio and drove.
Glancing at him, she sighed again. ‘I can’t believe I lost to this little kid. My pride as an old lady...’ she cried internally. She was thirty-two years as of today. Time went by so soon just ten years ago she graduated from college and joined her company, and now ten years later she was still here.
“Lunch?” suddenly he said.
Feng Mei glanced at him and shook her head. “work,” she said.
Silently they travelled to their office. Feng got down and went in without even thanking him. Today she was not in the mood for fake pleasantries.
“Feng!” Eliot called to her with his hands outstretched.
“Don’t even... I’m not in the mood today,” She waved at him and walked inside.
