"Wow! You learn fast." Ohani just smiled very sweetly knowing that she was being watched by President Hanada, Kai's father. Along with the other higher up in the company.
What she didn't know was that she wasn't the one they were actually watching. All eyes were paying attention to Ashley's every move. From the President to the Director of Marketing, all were interested to know who he is.
Everyone was wondering why Koji didn't introduce her to anyone, at least to the President of the company for that matter. It made them much more curious as to who she is?
Since everyone was all there already. The Director of Marketing decided to begin. He got up and went to the podium. "Mic' test! Mic' test! Ladies and Gentlemen, since everyone is here, let's begin.
We are here today to talk about the new product that we are planning to release come's summer. Miss Yamaguchi is here because she has been nominated as our endorser. However, it has not been decided yet and could still be replaced by someone more suitable.
"I invited her here today so you all could see for yourself her capabilities for furthering your decision. To those who do not know her. She is an international model and actress who is the newly signed talent of President Kai Hanada of THJ Entertainment. " The Director of Marketing looked at Ohani. Then he gave a meaningful glance at Ashley afterward.
Ohani saw that move and it did not bode well with her, deep inside she wanted to jump and curse Ashley.
Meanwhile, Ashley was seriously listening to the Director of Marketing and she noticed that he was looking at her. To be polite, she acknowledges the man. She procured a sweet timid smile, before continuing to listen.
"As I said, the assurance that she will be the endorser of this product has not yet been set in stone. If you know someone else you would like to recommend, it's still open. " The Director of Marketing said while this time he was looking at Koji Hanada.
Koji, who was not very attentive and was busy with the paperwork in front of him, slightly looked at the Director and he understood what he meant. It got him to thinking...
'Hmm, It's not a bad idea if I recommend Miss Gusman. She's the right person for this product, she's simple, sweet, and innocent. Would she consent?' Koji thought as he stared at Ashley unknowingly.
President Hanada also noticed the viscosity of his eldest son's appearance on Ashley. Suddenly, he thought of an idea of using Ashley to fight Tanaga with his eldest son.
"So 'you are saying, Miss Yamaguchi's not yet guaranteed to be our endorser of this product? if someone comes forward with a candidate, there's a good chance that it could be that person?" Asked President Hanada loud and clear for everyone to hear.
"Yes, President Hanada! That's exactly what I'm saying." The Director quickly answered the question.
When Ohani heard the Director of Marketing said, her blood pressure shoot up and she forgot that she supposed to be sweet and lovable. Suddenly she stood up and raised her eyebrows, before-"Excuse me! Director, based on what you said, I am not yet the endorser that you have chosen. Why? What do I still lack?"
Ohani walked over to the front of the Director of Marketing. She stood right in front of him and looked directly at the Director.
"This is all I have to say to you, even if you kneel before me ... I will never accept this endors.e.m.e.nt!" She then slapped the Director, turned around, and started walking out.
When she arrived at the threshold. She paused and looked around where Kai was sitting unsure of what to do with Ohani's outburst.
"Kai! What are you waiting for? They don't like me, so why are we staying? Let's go! " Shouted Ohani as she addressed Kai in the presence of high-ranking employees in the company.
All eyes were pointed at Kai, waiting to see what he's going to do while holding their breath at the same time.
*Thud-thud-thud* Kai's heart was beating so fast unable to think straight. After contemplating for a moment, he quickly stood up and bowed to the Director of Marketing and all the higher up that were there. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! It's my fault! I'm sorry!" Kai said as he leaned forward to ask for the dispensary for what Ohani has done.
President Hanada was shooting dagger at him as he said. "Call the security and drag that woman who has no respect for the elders. Now!" Shouted President Hanada. He then got up and went towards Kai and kicked him as hard as he could.
Due to the power of President Hanada's kicked. Kai spun and curled around the side of the room. It was so hard that Kai was in so much pain. He balled up like a fetus and cried out. "Argggg!"
"What kind of person you brought here. You're such an idiot! Get out of my sight right now or might kill you!" Yells President Hanada angrily.
Koji quickly stood up and supported his brother. "It's best to leave first and talk to dad later. Don't insist that you are wrong, because you are just going to pissed dad." He whispered to his brother as he helped him stand up.
Ohani, who at first thought she's almighty and was acting like a diva. Suddenly realized when she saw how angry President Hanada. His own son, he kicked right in front of everyone. Not caring if it humiliated his own flesh and blood.
She thought that President Hanada would leave her alone. She was surprised when he walked towards her and stopped right in front of her. Before, "Pak! Pak! Pak!" A couple of slap-on landed on her beautiful face.
"That's for you slapping a person older than you! The other is because of your behavior! You're a woman but your acting like a gang member. Where is your manner? You better get out of my sight or else... - You wouldn't want to find out." Shouted President Hanada, face reddened from anger.
Just in time that the security guard arrived. He grabbed Ohani on both arms, before lifting her and dragging her out of the room.
"Let me go !!!!! Don't you dare touch me !!!! Let me go !!!" Ohani shouted as loud as she could as the two large security guards of the THJ Group dragged her out of the way.
Kai was already standing up with Koji's help and ready to leave to follow Ohani, when he suddenly heard his father's voice. "Where do you think you're going? You stay right here! Sit down!" President Hanada returned to his seat already.
"What a bitch! I don't know which head did you use, you better get your head out of your ass or I will cut both of them!" President Hanada threatened Kai who has his head down.
"Hmph, I'm glad that she didn't marry CEO Jones if that had happened, otherwise I don't know what's going to happen to THJ Group. Let's continue the meeting!" Ordered President Hanada while he was still trying to catch his breath.
Everyone in the meeting room was amazed. They were all stunned at first but quickly got their senses back as soon as the security guard escorted Ohani out of the room.
"Phew! That was a close call. Good thing we have not yet signed the contract, or else..." Said the Marketing Director, while his eyes were still pointed at Ashley.
