54 From Peak To Bottom 2

__________________

Everyone from the allied companies was at their homes at the moment laughing happily, spending their times with their family, thinking they had won and their companies were saved.

But it was at this moment their phones started ringing as they got to know of the press conference held by the Virus Industries.

Each of them turned the television on to see the press conference they just got the news of, wanting to see how that company would try to justify itself in vain.

What none of the CEOs realized was that at each of their houses, just around them, was a real fly, flying around. But they were much smaller than a normal fly.

They saw the press conference held by the CEO ugly, after thinking how ugly he was, like everyone else around the world, the press conference got to it's more important parts as the CEO's faces started turning paler and paler.

When the press conference had finally ended, they were ashen-faced, stunned, and their eyes were frozen open staring at the TV which had completely changed to another programme.

All of them knew they won't be able to provide the government with the technology without reverse engineering first, which would take too much time which they didn't have.

While the CEOs were frozen still, in another location, in the highest floor of 4 Times Square, a person started grinning evilly seeing their funny faces before saying in a low voice "Don't lose hope this easily now, you stupid monkeys, this is just getting started."

After coming out of their stupor the CEOs started calming themselves down first, before thinking all of the allied companies were in this together, which made them feel a little better, they thought it was probably going to be okay, they just needed to find an excuse and then everything would be fine, so after coming out of their shocked stupor, they started calling each other, wanting to hold a conference meeting as soon as possible.

WITH THE LEGAL UGLY

Leaving his master's floor, the Legal ugly came to another floor at 4 Times Square.

This was the floor which only the legal staff worked at, seeing him enter, everyone's attention was unconsciously drawn to his almost abnormally ugly face as they stopped working and answering the always ringing phones.

Their boss, the Legal ugly's office was on another floor and every time he came to this floor, he would start giving orders in a monotonous tone without even stopping for a second to take a breath. It was like he memorized the orders he wanted to give, before coming to the Legal staff's floor.

Some workers even suspected him being a robot in their gossip time, because of how emotionless his voice sounded.

As everyone went quiet, the Legal ugly looked at their faces and he could clearly see the stress and worry plastered on their faces.

Some had dark circles under their eyes, some were chewing on a lip, some were even biting their nails.

Their worry was understandable though, as they were working for the company everyone was cursing at the moment, saying they were probably going to be destroyed.

Also, they were receiving phone calls, wanting to terminate contracts, since the moment those allied phone companies held that press conference, making them even more stressed.

Now they were not sure if the company they were working for was going to go bankrupt. They honestly didn't care about what the company has done, or if the company was in the wrong or right.

All they cared about was to keep their jobs and feed their family or earn a living to pass their days.

Seeing this worry on everyone's face, the Legal ugly honestly didn't care how they were feeling, but he decided to calm them down first before anything else, as their work efficiency would be lowered tremendously like this when they are filled with stress and worry.

So with the calmest face, like the most tranquil water in the pond that would never be disturbed, with an still emotionless tone, he said, "Don't worry everyone, none of the things the allied phone companies said were true and we are going to prove that, as our chairman and owner was already expecting this, so don't be worried at all and just focus on your jobs because this shall pass soon enough."

Listening to the Legal ugly's emotionless calm words which seemed to have no impatience, hatred, expectation, excitement, or anything else in it, surprisingly made the workers and staff calm.

Also, they became excited hearing that their mysterious chairman was expecting this to happen as it made them more hopeful as even more light came back to their eyes.

Seeing his little speech work, with the blank look in his eyes, which were almost there all the time, he straightly went to the main topic he had come here for, as he started giving the order he was here for in the first place as he said with the same monotonous tone as before, "Okay, now, I want a team of best lawyers we have here by my side in at most thirty minutes, move."

Listening to the order, everyone started moving again, wanting to finish the job as soon as possible.

After exactly half an hour, a team of fifteen lawyers was standing in front of him in a very orderly manner.

Right now the Legal ugly was sitting in his office silently not looking at the lawyers that had arrived just now, though before the lawyers arrived, he had checked what was inside the USB Flash his master had given him.

Suddenly the phone on his desk started ringing, he picked up the phone and just listened to the person on the other side of the line talk, after the person on the other side of the line was done, he hung up without saying anything in response.

"The FBI is at the reception, let's go." He said as he stood up from his chair and started walking outside of the office while the team of the fifteen best lawyers started following him.

The fifteen lawyers divided into three groups of five people each group very quickly, then they made three very orderly rows just behind the walking Legal ugly as they followed him, each row was a group of five lawyers.

As they started walking to the reception floor, every worker, staff, and employee's attention was unconsciously drawn to the amazing formation, which seemed to be following a man, like trained bodyguards.

But focusing at the man who was in the lead, the women couldn't stop themselves from being disappointed, seeing how ugly he was, as almost all of them thought, 'Alas! why should the lead of such a romantic scene, which could only be seen in the movies be an ugly guy?'
