81 dear Lord, help me! (1/2)

”Mr. Chu, don't get me wrong... what I meant to say is, I plan to build an empire.”

The board of directors present was first shock. As they absorb her words and analyze it, their blood starts to boil with excitement and then the feeling of doubt started to kick in.

”I knew our chairwoman is indeed meant for great things!”

”Empire? It is indeed a big plan. Even though our chairman never intended to expand, our future chairman is quite ambitious!” Another man spokes in satisfaction.

”It might take years before we reach our goal but chairwoman is still young and I might retire sooner or later but me and my heir will always support our chairwoman.”

”Agreed!”

”But, Miss chair, how can your plans work without any funds?” Mr. Chu probed. Although he liked the idea of the Yue International climbing to the top, alas, it is easier said than done. And the main dilemma is the lack of fund for her future projects and investment.

”Eh? I have my ways. I just want you gentlemen to approved everything I say without questions. If you give that full extent of your trust, I assure you that in one year at most… we are on par with the Han Corporation.” her confident tone reassured them.

For some reason, although her words are undeniably ridiculous as to how can a small company climbed to the top, not to mention, being on par of the Han Corporation in such a short time; however, with her cool and calm demeanor as she says her words full of confidence as if she was a hundred percent sure, the old gentlemen unconsciously shut their mouth and agreed.

By the time the meal filled with brown-nosing instead of business discussion ended -- it was 4 pm already. Seeing that she doesn't have to stay with those group of board directors as she got them on her side-- since her schedule is cleared up Seraphina decided to visit Sebastian Yue.

However, as she was exiting the fancy restaurant, she bumps into someone. ”Ow! Sorry!” the familiar whimpy voice apologizes to the sudden collision.

Seraphina gazes at the alluring man with a boy-next-door bearing. Though he was wearing a casual white v-neck t-shirt and denim pants, his disheveled hair and distress look wasn't enough to conceal his pretty face. Seeing his familiar face, Seraphina's lips curled upward.

As he was in a rush as if running away from someone, he hastily bows as he apologizes. Not interested to see the person he crashed into, he rashly sprinted away. Alas, he failed to do so as someone grabs his back collar almost choking him as he gets away.

”Aw!” he squeals to the sudden halting. Turning to see the person behind him, he was shocked seeing Seraphina's familiar face. After all, this stranger was the reason why his friend ditches him and make him use his stenching car.

”You!”

”How rude. Hi, rude friend!” she greeted as she grinned from ear to ear seeing his disbelief reaction. She already took off her myopia glasses revealing her captivating almond-shaped eyes. Before the man could react, Seraphina grabs the hem of his shirt; dragging him which made him follow her.

”Wait, wait! This is kidnapping! Help!” seeing he was being dragged by this petite weird creature, he called out for help.

”Hey rude one, I'm helping you escape.” she nonchalantly replied. As they reached the parking space, Seraphina let go of her grip.
