Chapter 5 - Rose Red

After breakfast, Lena went back to her room to organize her thoughts and plan. She has the real Lena's memory and her own memory, so with both, she was like a monster businesswoman.

Lena was a smart and talented girl like many high elite young woman who grew up rich. At a young age, she learned how to dance, played several musical instruments, and had proper etiquette lessons.

Although she did not highly excel in business school, she still would be in the top 10%. She did not just study business for fun, and she did put the work and energy to succeed in it.

She studied hard just so she can stand strong beside Andy, grooming herself to be the perfect elite wife for him. She catered to his every need and made sure she was on top of it all. She was carefree and loyal to him only. Now, all Lena's hard work of sweat and blood were left on the battlefield to rot. But, Lena was not going to let each of her hard work go down the trash.

Lena walked into the big walk-in closet. This time she took a proper look inside. The closet was as big as her room. It had a category for each of a women's need. There were dresses, shoes, and purses of latest wardrobes. The jewelry and watches were placed by large mirrors. Lena did not know where to start.

She was going to wear something professional… but in the end, she went with a cute maroon blouse with a black flared out skirt. Lena put on some comfy high heel to match her outfit.

She touched upon her hair and make-up. She put on some exclusive jewelry and her look was complete.

'Perfect… I look like a proper villainess.' Lena smiled at her reflection.

She walked downstairs and the clinks of her heels alerted the staff about her presence. They all took several glances at her. Today, she was dressed as her usual, but her makeup was not as heavy. She looked prettier with the light make-up. Madam Shen had always urged Lena to embrace her natural beauty.

"Miss, are you going out? Shall I prepare a car for you?" Aunt Mary asked. Aunt Mary has taken cared of Lena since she was young. Seeing her today, she felt that something has changed not only from the outside but from the inside of Lena.

"No. I will drive myself today." Lena walked out to the garage and decided to test drive her personal custom made rose-red Rolls-Royce.

Never in her life would she thought she could drive such a nice car. The color wasn't her best personal favorite but it suited her personality very well. The inside was clean and girly like the outside. She fitted perfectly in.

Lena sped her way to her father's company. Shen Mao worked at the Shen HQ while most of the time, Shen Milli took care of Aura, the branched company that focused on jewelry.

As she parked her car up front and headed into the company. Many employees greeted her, knowing that she was the CEO's daughter. They had seen her a few times at the company but she was never here for work. They quickly stared her down.

Lena could feel the negative vibes from the workers, especially the younger ones.

"The company is in trouble because of the chairman's daughter. Is she here to cause more trouble?"

"I feel so bad for the chairman. First, he lost a great son-in-law and now the company too!"

"There is a shareholders meeting today. How can she still show her face here after what she has done?"

She had already expected this reaction from them already. Lena just ignored all the snarky comments and went her own way. She was here for more important stuff, she has no time for teaching useless people the proper way to be respectful. She took the executive elevator and headed straight to the top floor where her father's office is.

As she got out, Secretary Han was already waiting for her. Lena expected that her arrival had already reached her father's ears before she reached the top floor.

"Hello, Miss. Shen. Your father is currently in a shareholders meeting. You can wait in his office." He kindly gestured towards the Chairman's office.

"No need." Lena placed her purse down on Secretary Han's desk and sat down on his chair.

"I am actually here for you."

Secretary Han looked confused. He first started working in the company as an apprentice and took over his father's position as secretary of the CEO when his father passed.

He was as intelligent and diligent as his father. He was young also, so most people know that he will probably get Vice-Chairman position.

In all his 7 years, not once had Lena Shen asked something from him. Not even to get the schedule of the chairman.

"What can I do for you, Miss Shen?"

Lena spun around his chair a few times before continuing.

"I want a 5-year report on all the companies under the Shen family."
