Somewhere unknown,
"We got intel, that 'Siwang' is present in country C" an old butler, reported to his master.
His master, who was busy polishing his favorite g*n,sitting on a single black luxurious couch, smiled evilly, hidden in the dark only his sleak white hands could be seen polishing his g*n with a handkerchief made specially for 'his' g*n.
After a while, when he was done with his work, he laughed, his laughter could be heard throughout the seemingly empty hallway of the mansion.
"Ahh, finally, some good news came"
"Yes master"
"What do you say Aldrich? Isn't it already a long time?"
"It is master"
"I'm already getting old, how long should I wait now"
"You're only 35 this year master, you still have to get married"
The man laughed again
"You're boring Aldrich"
"I'm"
The 35 years old man came out of the dark, the sun shined, through the window, on his light brown hairs making it look shiny and smooth.
He walked out of his dark study room,which was only illuminated with the sunshine coming through the huge glass window, and went outside.
There was a big golf course, behind the mansion. Aldrich carried the golf bag with him. He settled the ball on the tee, and positioned himself to start, just as hit the ball,
"Shouldn't we motivate siwang a little?...I'm bored lately" he said,still looking in the direction where the ball has gone, a purely evil and devilish smirk on his cold face.
"We should, master...we should" the butler replied as he understood his meaning.

"It's CHEATING"
Laurain shouted as she again lost in subway surfers,
"I pushed him to the side" she said irritated.
"Do you think I am so free to play a stupid game like you, I am very busy" she said as she again replayed it.
She looked like a child, talking by herself, fighting with a game.
And she again lost, she just couldn't beat the high score.
I won't play these types of games again, they're boring.
Laurain decided, but she didn't delete it.
Laurain who was really bored after a break of one week, after many years, decided to do some work.
She didn't stepped out of the house by herself even once, not because she didn't know this country, but because she was on a break, the whole day she would just lay on the bed, sleeping, in-truth trying to sleep, playing games on mobile, watching useless videos and making food.
She changed into a black skinny pants with a dark blue colour full sleeved top, and her long black coat, reaching till her knees, paired with black pumps. Took two strings of hair from both sides and pinned them behind.
She took her bag and went to MLAR enterprises.
MLAR enterprises, came into being five years ago and in a span of just two years emerged as a leading business enterprise just following after Brown enterprises. It has its roots in most of the fields be it manufacturing, trading, clothing etc.
MLAR enterprises took the world by surprise, its spread almost all over the world, a complete EMPIRE.
Nobody, clearly knows how much assets are under it, its owner is also very secretive, no one knows who is the real owner of this empire.
Laurain got out of the taxi, and entered the huge building, even its exterior was screaming luxury.
She walked straight into the lobby, her loud steps getting everyones attention.
She didn't even stop at the reception and went straight to the presidents exclusive elevator. The receptionist came running after her trying to stop her.
"Miss you can't go in like this. Do you have an appointment? Please come with me"
Laurain just glanced at her and
Ignored her.
The receptionist was a young lady, she was really facing a difficult situation right now. Laurain didn't look like a daughter of a rich family from her low key dressing style. So she thought of being just a little bit rude.
The elevator's door opened.
"Miss I cant allow anyone to enter the presidents elevator. Please come with me"
Laurain proceeded to enter the elevator but the receptionist blocked her way.
"Miss please try to understand, I'll have to call the security if you don't back away" she said with a straight face. She had really decided to call the security if Laurain persisted to continue.
Laurain who had not said a single word since she entered the high classed building, calmly took out her mobile and called someone saying two words.
"Come down"
And she cut the call.
"Miss please come this way, You cant stand here" the receptionist tried to persuade her.
When laurain didn't budged from her place, infront of the elevator, the receptionist called the security.
Two guards, triple the size of the receptionist and Laurain came, and were ready to drag her out.
When the elevator dinged,
And an old director came out hurriedly, his face was white as if he had seen a ghost.
"Sir, why are you here? You should have called me if you needed something."
The director ignored her and just looked at Laurain with astonishment and fear.
"Sir, we'll drag this lady out, you continue with your work" the receptionist said pointing towards Laurain.
Floor slipped from beneath his feet, when he heard the receptionist. He was about to faint.
What the hell is this i***t talking about? Ahhhh... she will skin me Alive.
Sweat formed on his forehead under Laurain's scrutinizing gaze.
"You..... what are you talking about? Do you know who you are talking to? Go quickly you're fired"
The director bursted at her.
"But...sir..." she was about to cry.
He ignored her and very politely greeted laurain, as they entered the elevator.
"Welcom.."
"You don't need to welcome me in my own company Ben"
"Yes yes ofcourse Boss"
"Don't fire her"
"Boss she..." laurain cut him off.
"Double her salary Also....
Apologies to her"
Ben smiled,
She was never an unreasonable person.
"Yes boss"
"Now" laurain commanded and he immediately called Mia(the receptionist) who was crying hysterically on the front desk by now.
It was never easy to get a job in such a big company even if its a small job, the salary she got was way much more than many other companies.
Laurain liked her, because with her behavior she proved that she was a professional person and did her job wholeheartedly.
Laurain called a meeting with the directors and managers of all departments. The conference room was full with almost fifty people.
There was pin drop silence, no one even dared to breath loudly as the manager was briefing the president about the latest project they were working on.
A young lady manager, who was new was tapping her heals continuously on the floor, the sound was not much audible.
But
When it continued for straight five minutes.
"Manager Lira, you're fired"
Everyone stilled.
Ahh this was remaining to happen
Ben thought
Manager Lira, a capable young women, short tempered to be added and over confident.
Don't ,don't, please don't argue.
Ben was sweating by know, he felt the cold air coming from her, as he sat right next to laurain.
"But why? What did I even do?"
Here we go
Ben prepared himself.
"You are in a meeting, not in a play ground, where you will be tapping your feet carelessly, if you don't have the etiquettes of how to attend a meeting, you don't need to come here anymore"
"I'm sorry"
"You can leave"
"I...."
"LEAVE" laurain banged her fist on the table, startling everyone.
And the manager ran away from there.
She was new so she really didn't knew about Laurain's temper about work related matters. The old employees were well aware of it, thats why they were themselves sitting on pins and needles.
The meeting lasted for straight 6 hours as they discussed about different projects and Laurain told them the plan for the next few months, with which company to cooperate with and not.
Laurain walked to the presidents office and sat down on the chair checking the record of accounts file.
Ben knocked and after getting the permission came in, he dare not invite himself inside without getting permission, who knows he will be the next in line to get executed.
Laurain's attention was on the file.
Cough.. cough..
Ben attracted her attention and began
"About manager Lira.."
"No discussions on this topic"
"But..." laurain glared at him shutting him up.
Sigh, i have to do it, man up , come on
After encouraging himself a little, he took a deep breath and
"She's new, a hard working women, she does that when she's concentrating on something"
All this time, laurain cold hard stare was on him.
When she looked at someone like that, it gives chill down peoples spine.
Ben, who was older than her, also shivered when he looked at her face after saying that, ofcourse he couldn't say that looking straight at her face.
Laurain didn't say anything,
"I'll excuse myself then"
Ben was near the door
"Fine, I won't tolerate this next time".
A huge smile came on his face.
"Yes boss" he said, and went out without wasting a second.
Who would want to stay in that freezing cold office.
Laurain merged herself in her work, totally forgetting about Tom and other things. It had already been 9pm, she was nowhere near of finishing her work.
Unknown to her, her employees didn't dare to go either,
Who knows which thing might ticked this devil, and they all will be 'FIRED', straight through the heart.
Laurain was done by almost
12 o'clock, when she exited her office which was on the top floor, she reached the lobby, she thought no one would be there but seeing Mia there she was surprised.
Aren't the working hours over already.
Laurain went to her, startling a half sleeping Mia.
"Why are you still at work?" Laurain asked.
"Everyone's at work" she replied.
"Everyone?" Laurain asked with wide eyes.
"Yes..uh..bo..."
"You can call me miss, also tell them, that I didn't knew they all were so hardworking thats why I only had to spend four hours checking accounts file" laurain said with an evil tint in her eyes.
"Yes miss"
The receptionist told everyone word to word what Laurain said.
All of then were having a bittersweet moment, with a both relieved and scared expression on their faces with only one thought in their mind.
What if she comes tomorrow?
Ahhh someone save usssss.
