Supergirl.

‘Who said they wanted to resign?’ Zhen Wu asked coldly.

The directors didn’t know who Zhen Wu was, and why Zhen Wu was affectionate with Lucy in front of them. They didn’t believe Lucy could do anything to them.

‘If young mistress Lucy doesn’t resign then I’ll resign,’ George Brown said.

‘George Brown, a forty-two-year old man,’ Zhen Wu said. ‘He worked for Dawson’s company since he graduated from college. He is the director of security. Since Dawson’s company bought a third party’s security software, it won’t make a difference if you resign. Who is the HR Director Wu?’

‘I am,’ Mr Wu said.

‘Director Wu, settle Mr Brown’s severance package,’ Zhen Wu said.

‘What right do you have to fire me?’ George Brown asked.

‘Mr Brown, don’t misunderstand,’ Zhen Wu said. ‘I didn’t fire you, you resigned. Everyone here who isn’t deaf can testify you resigned. Lucy is my fiance, she contracted me to be the co-CEO of Dawson’s company.’

‘You’ll regret this,’ George Brown said.

George Brown stood to leave.

‘Wait,’ Zhen Wu said. ‘Guards, escort Mr Brown outside. Give him a body search, and don’t let him take any of Dawson’s company’s property. Mr Brown, you should understand this isn’t personal. This is a common protocol to protect the interests of Dawson’s company.’

‘You!’ George Brown said and stormed out of the meeting room.

The other directors were silent after George Brown left.

‘Call Manager Robert here,’ Zhen Wu said to the secretary.

The secretary went downstairs to escort Robert to the meeting room. Robert didn’t know why the CEO wanted to see him, but he followed the secretary to the meeting room.

‘Sit,’ Zhen Wu said.

Robert sat in George Brown’s vacant chair.

‘If no one else wants to resign, I’ll start the meeting,’ Zhen Wu said.

The secretary gave out the reports to the directors.

‘Here are Dawson’s company’s financial reports for the last three years,’ Zhen Wu said. ‘Dawson’s company’s biggest investment in the last three years is the four hundred million dollar development site. I’ve contracted Hei Fen to oversee the project. Are there any objections?’

No one objected. The directors knew Hei Fen was a director at Tan Lang. They didn’t know how Zhen Wu was able to get Tan Lang to agree to collaborate with Dawson’s company.

After the meeting ended the baffled directors left the meeting room.

‘Big brother Zhen Wu, I’m Quan Wen,’ Quan Wen said. ‘I’m Lucy’s little brother.’

Zhen Wu didn’t shake Quan Wen’s hand.

‘Wait for me in the cafe downstairs,’ Zhen Wu said. ‘I have something I want to say to you in private.’

Lucy suspected Zhen Wu knew what Quan Wen did, because Zhen Wu was usually polite to others, Zhen Wu wouldn’t be angry for no reason.

Zhen Wu held Lucy’s hand and they walked to Robert’s office.

‘Young mistress Lucy, CEO Zhen,’ Robert greeted.

‘Congratulations on your promotion,’ Zhen Wu said.

Zhen Wu shook Robert’s hand.

‘CEO Zhen, I don’t deserve this promotion,’ Robert said. ‘I’ve only been here for a short time.’

‘You’re the most suitable candidate to take over Mr Brown’s position,’ Zhen Wu said. ‘Talent has nothing to do with time. I’ve reviewed your business achievements. You’re a talented man.’

Zhen Wu smiled at Robert, and he led Lucy outside.

‘Robert, who was that little boy who visited your office with Lucy Brenda?’ John asked.

‘CEO Zhen,’ Robert said.

‘Do you mean Zhen Wu?’ John asked. ‘Robert, you have to save me. Put in a good word for me with him. I have a wife to support. In the past I offended him.’

‘Don’t worry,’ Robert said. ‘CEO Zhen only wants to deal with the directors who threatened Lucy.’

‘Really?’ John asked. ‘What happened in the meeting?’

Robert explained to John what happened during the meeting.

‘Robert, do you know who Zhen Wu is?’ John asked. ‘He’s the CEO of Yue’s company. His godmother is Shu Tang Jue’s wife. No wonder Hei Fan from Tan Lang agreed to collaborate with Dawson’s company. What’s more shocking is Zhen Wu’s alias is C.Y.’

Robert received another surprise that day.

In the cafe, Zhen Wu sat opposite Quan Wen.

‘Lucy is my fiance,’ Zhen Wu said. ‘I don’t want any man to dream of stealing Lucy from me. I want you to move out of Dawson’s mansion tonight. According to grandpa’s will, I have the right to take back your twenty percent shares of Dawson’s company. If you don’t behave, I’ll do more than take away your shares and position at Dawson’s company.’

‘You’re an outsider,’ Quan Wen said. ‘You’re not Lucy’s husband. You can’t make any decisions on behalf of Dawson’s company.’

Quan Wen didn’t know Zhen Wu’s identity. Quan Wen thought Zhen Wu was a gold digger.

‘Lucy, don’t be fooled by him,’ Quan Wen said. ‘He only wants to use you to gain control of Dawson’s company. After you hand over your shares to him, he’ll break up with you.’

‘Quan Wen, you’re not allowed to insult Zhen Wu,’ Lucy said.

‘Lucy, you don’t have to be angry,’ Zhen Wu said. ‘Quan Wen, don’t make me use force. Make sure you move out of Dawson’s mansion tonight.’

Zhen Wu and Lucy stood and they left the cafe together.

Quan Wen smashed a glass onto the floor.

‘MF, who do you think you are?’ Quan Wen asked.

Yue Ni sat on Zhen Wu’s vacant seat.

‘Big brother Zhen Wu is the CEO of Yue’s company,’ Yue Ni said. ‘His godmother is the wife of Tan Lang’s leader and he has a loveable little sister, me.’

Quan Wen looked confusedly at Yue Ni.

‘I forgot to introduce myself,’ Yue Ni said. She gave him a business card. ‘If you want to contest Dawson Brenda’s will, you can contact me at Yue’s law firm. I’ll help you keep your twenty percent of Dawson’s company shares.’

‘Who let you in the building?’ Quan Wen said.

‘Big sister Lucy is my big brother’s fiance,’ Yue Ni said. ‘I can come here anytime.’

Yue Ni opened her laptop and she showed Quan Wen footage of when he attempted to assault Lucy.

‘Take a look,’ Yue Ni said.

‘Impossible,’ Quan Wen said. ‘I erased this footage. How did you get this?’

‘I have a hundred backups of this footage,’ Yue Ni said. She waved the CD in front of Quan Wen. ‘If you don’t behave, this footage will be sent to everyone at Dawson’s company and you’ll be disgraced.’

‘You little bitch,’ Quan Wen cursed.

Quan Wen tried to snatch the CD from Yue Ni’s hand, but she twisted his arm.

‘Who are you to dare touch me?’ Yue Ni asked. ‘Don’t think because my big brother went easy on you, I’ll let you get away with hurting my big sister Lucy. Don’t you dare touch big sister Lucy again. If you do, I’ll make sure you’ll never walk again.’

Yue Ni kicked Quan Wen to the floor. She didn’t want to waste her time on a scum like Quan Wen. She walked to the counter and bought an ice-cream cone to get rid of the bad taste of wasting her breath talking to Quan Wen
