On the way to the man's office, they encountered Director George Hao who's on the way to Ann's office for a visit.
"Morning everyone!" George greeted with a broad smile showing on his face. " Where are you all headed? I was about to..." Did not get to finish his sentence. He was interrupted by Lea.
" Good morning to you too! Director Hao." We are on the way to his office. Pointing at the man they are following. Then wink.
George understood the signal and stopped what he was about to say.
"It's good that you're here Director Hao, how about coming with us to be a witness." The man motioned to follow along.
" Huh!" George is now curious as to he needed to witness. "Follow the lead!" Smiling secretly to Ann, Lea and Mrs. Lim
Once they arrived, Ann realizes that this man is the Vice President of Tan Corp. 'Interesting?' Ann thought.
The day Ann became the Interim CEO, the Vice President, and his secretary was busy shopping and galivanting in town. Therefore, they had no idea that Ann is the new Interim CEO.
Inside his office, the Vice President motions to everyone to sit down; no one complies. The all stayed standing waited for his next moved. The secretary slowly walks towards her desk to grab a couple of sheet of papers.
With a nasty looking smile on her, hands Lea and Ann the sheet of paper.
" Read it! Signed and print your name when done." Speaking very proud.
The president spoke; " By they way Director Hao, Mrs. Lim can be the witness.
" Can you explain what I'm about to witness?" George asked curiously.
"It's a disciplinary action letter to reprimand this two intern for insubordination." Vice President replied arrogantly.
"So! You called us here to sign this document for what? So we can get fired? And the reason is misconduct behavior and insubordination to a superior? Is. Am'I reading this correct?" Lea is now boisterous while Ann speechless. "You must be kidding me? Hahaha! Are you out of your mind?"
"You!" Pointing at Lea. "How can you speak to me like that? You see! You see! No respect at all!" The is now enraged.
Mrs. Lim who's quietly observing how Ann will handle the situation has a secret smile on her face.
" Vice President! That's who you are right? What is your name by the way?" Ann asked professionally. " I believe we were never properly introduced, same as with this lady here." Ann was looking at the secretary.
"No need for introduction, you will be heading out the door anytime soon anyway. Just sign the damn paper will you!" The secretary sarcastically told Ann.
" Lady! I advise you to be careful what you say in front of this one her" Lea inform the secretary while looking at Ann.
"Hmmp! Ya! right!" The secretary did not care.
Ann still waiting for the VP to reply to her inquiry. "Whenever you're ready I'm ready to listen for what reason I'm receiving this letter."
" Didn't you read it? Why are you still asking me? It clearly said what's the reason.
" But it says we're reprimand for insubordination to our superior. Who exactly is this superion your talking about?" Ann now agitated and had enough of the fiasco.
"You have the guts to ask! isn't it clear that the superior is me!" The secretary intervenes and yelled at Ann.
"Are you sure about that? You are sure that you're my superior? Make sure, because if you're not sure; You might end up losing your job over this and get sued for slander." Ann warned her.
"Hahaha! You a mere intern can't accept that I'm your superior. Of course, my position is higher than of yours it means I'm your superior." The secretary keeps on insisting that she's above Ann.
"Hahaha!" Now it's Lea's turn to laugh at loud while pointing at the secretary. "You are out of your mind girl, do you know who are you talking too?"
By this time, the secretary is now very upset due to Lea laughing at her.
She charged towards the two and raised her hand and was about to slap Lea; When Ann grabs her hand and hit her face hard in turn.
Everyone in the room stunned and are speechless for what had happened.
The Vice President stand up and about to charged Ann when George moved like lightning and protected Ann and end up getting slap instead. *PAK!* Is all everyone heard?
Silent eerie is what had come next. No one moved, and no one says anything at first. Then the VP started apologizing to George.
"VP, I'm not the person you need to apologize too, it's this person right here if you don't want to become unemployed today." George Hao warned the Vice President of Tan Corporation.
"Me! Apologize to this no one! I, the Vice President of this company will apologize to this person? No way!" He angrily yells for all to hear.
"Alright! don't say I didn't warn you." George mumble then turned to Ann.
"Are you alright CEO Wen?" George asked Ann respectfully.
The secretary and the Vice President heard George Hao said to Ann. Both were dumbfounded and speechless. They finally realized who's Ann.
"Lea, Director Hao, Mrs. Lim. Will you all follow me to my office." Ann told them without batting an eye.
"You and You! do not follow me, start preparing your resignation letter. Either way, I will recommend to the board your dismissal. Ann informed the Vice President with a determined voice.
" By the way; Do you! Now, know who I am?" Ann turns, and walk out.
