5 Coveting him is akin to suicide

"What nonsense are you talking about Klaus? you know how fragile our daughter is, she can't even stay outside for long, much more stay in a stressful environment." Zenia quickly retorted, somehow annoyed.

"What does she know then? she has no interest in business, no career in mind, she doesn't socialize and her friends can only be counted with one hand. We can't shield her forever Zenia, this is for her own good." Klaus calmly explained.

"She is still young! our princess is smart and very beautiful, you can be assured that she will have a bright future and get married to a good man who will pamper her the way we do."

"Smart?..." Klaus raised an eyebrow and glance at his daughter.

Yeri choked on the chicken wing she's eating, how did they end up on this topic?

"Of course she is smart! how else would she get admitted to SC University if not for her wits!" Zenia actively defended her daughter.

"It doesn't change the fact that she has to be financially independent, she know nothing, not even simple household chores." Klaus sighed.

"Princess might be lacking in some areas but look how beautiful she is..."

"..." Yeri's mouth twitched, why is this conversation steering in the wrong direction? just who are they bad-mouthing? does she look invisible to them?!

Sin City

The capital city of Caelum Country, Sin City, is known for its grandiose and luxurious establishments and skyscrapers, high-priced real-estates, sumptuous and finest food, world-class fashion, a multitude of extravagance to offer and undoubtedly the most expensive city with its unparalleled technology and innovation.

Amongst the flourishing and successful businesses running the city is the unrivalled conglomerate company, KV Corporation, diversifying into different commercial, industrial, shipping, trading activities and specifically the leading innovator in technology.

Situated at the heart of Sin City's business district is the KV Corporation's headquarters - the KV Empire building, a skyscraper boasting with window wall system and modernism.

Leading the company to its current glory is Shin Keir, known for his ingenious prowess and ruthless strategy, does giving him the title -Tyrant emperor of KV Empire and the Demon god of the business world.

Regrettably, for women, he is like a supreme being that can only be admired from afar, coveting him is akin to suicide.

"Did you hear? 20 people got fired today at the corporate office..."

"I heard one got fired just because of misspelling from the submitted report."

"They said today's meeting with the CEO lasted for 10 hrs that the head of finance actually passed out!"

"ssshh! the tyrant emperor is extremely in a bad mood today, you should all pray not to cross his path especially the women!"

"Speaking of women, I heard a new employee tried to seduced the CEO just because she's a little pretty, now I was told she resigned for medical reasons!"

"hahaha! I wonder if her limbs are still intact? that's what she gets for being shameless!"

Meanwhile, at the CEO's office, Secretary Yun dared not move nor start a conversation, 8 years of experience is more than enough to deduce the Tyrant emperor's temper.

Today is just like any other ordinary day, the CEO is being his usual self, unreasonable and bad-tempered.

He used to think that the rumours about the CEO's hatred towards women were an exaggeration, yet at a once gala event they attended, he was caught off guard and a brazen hussy, hugged and attempted to kiss the Tyrant Emperor!

Following that, is a shriek, cracking and the gates of hell opening.

He was told, that the brazen hussy has long left the country, disabled and penniless.

The sound of phone ringing broke him from his reverie, there can only be one person who has the guts to call his grumpy Boss.

"I am not going." Shin's gloomy voice reverberated in the room.

"and why in a f*ckin bar?"

Secretary Yun swallowed a mouthful of saliva listening, the person on the other line must be Tristan Felan, the current COO of the company but also Shin's cousin and right-hand man.

Oftentimes, he likes to cross the line and piss off the Demon god, unfortunately, Secretary Yun is the one to suffer the consequences.

Shin's face looked even more gloomier, he ended the call and proceeded with his work.

"a 20% of annual return for $9,543,762.98?" Shin asked, tapping the paper.

Secretary Yun immediately looked at the document, it was the company's trading chart report that was discussed in the meeting earlier.

What could possibly be wrong with it?

"Who is the idiot who made this report?" Shin asked, slamming the file to the garbage bin.

"Boss, it's the Head of Finance, Mr Lim." Secretary Yun swiftly replied.

"It's $9,643,762.68, not $9,543,762.98...fire him, we don't need incompetent people." Shin commanded.

"Yes Boss, I will immediately notify HR." Secretary Yun looked stunned, what a monster! with countless figures and such a large pile of documents, he still recalled the exact figure discussed earlier?!

That bastard deserves this anyway! Secretary Yun snide, recalling the bloated fish who passed out after being tormented during the meeting, he had heard few complaints that he's harassing female employees and at times, uses his position to bully his subordinates.

"Also prepare the car, we're going to that bar."

Secretary Yun nodded and promptly left, he refused to stay in that room any longer, he have a feeling that it will be another torturous night so better to conserve his energy.
