Chapter 6 - Reports

She wanted a report on ALL of the companies under them?! The Shen family's main business was in the wine and jewelry industry. The family owned a few local and real estate, but those were minor businesses. They keep track of all the companies records and do yearly reports so it was not entirely hard to compile the 5-year report for her, but why the sudden interest?

Was this about what the Chairman mentioned this morning to him about her wanting to "help" out with the situation? Secretary Han still does not understand how a 5-year report of the company will help Lena.

"Uh, I--" He responded.

"Not now. Just give me a full detail report by dinner. I am pretty sure my father will invite you to dinner tonight since it is going to be a long day. Will it be fine on your schedule though?"

Secretary Han was astonished once again. He nodded in reply to her. 'So I guess the young miss do pay attention to some details about her father.' Her taking some interest in company matters is a small step forward.

"Just give it to me by then."

"Yes, I will be sure to."

"Oh, how is the meeting so far anyway? I hope my father is not getting slammed by the shareholders."

"Do not worry Young Miss, your father is well prepared."

"Ehahaha" Lena chuckled. "I am not worried one bit about the overall situation. Be sure to tell my father to not worry about too."

Lena sweetly smiled at Secretary Han before walking to the elevator and left.

"See you at dinner!"

'Is it just me… or there is definitely something off about her today?' Secretary Han pondered before quietly entering the meeting again.

Lena quickly got back into her car and drove to her next appointment.

In every story, there was always at least one bad character who did the dirty work for evil girl… and sure enough, Lena has few of her own. The others were just girls that fawned over Lena's wealth and did whatever she asked them to do. As long as she gave them access to the latest clothes and jewelry, they did her every bid.

However, Lena knew that these type of women will only be with her when she is still wearing her queen crown. Since her family is in trouble right not and she is no longer engage with Andy, these women would not budge a finger to help her.

Lena could only think of a few people who would stay with her regardless of her situation. Before she left the mansion, she already texted one of the people to meet her at their usual location.

Her phone rang and she quickly picked it up.

"Are you here yet?" A man's voice was heard.

"Is that how you speak to your boss, Gary?" Lena replied.

"..."

"I'll be there in five. Order my usual for me, thanks!"

Lena hung up before he can reply.

Gary had a huge crush on Lena since high school. But it was not until the end of college that Lena approached Gary. He could say they have only been close to each other for about a year now.

Although Lena acknowledged Gary's feeling, she told him that she was in love with Andy. But, that they can only be friends.

Lena had then continued to take advantage of Gary's skill and love for her to make him do things for her. Of course, she paid him for his help. She considered paying him to make it look better on herself.

As much as Gary know that he was being used, love makes you do crazy things.

However, knowing that Andy is no longer with Lena, he has not been sleeping well lately, thinking about how Lena is feeling.

He had wanted to visit her a few times but did not. For their relationship, he can only approach her if she made contact first. Aish… love is so painful. He had missed the opportunity to go for her many times because he felt that he should not get in between people's relationship, but now should be different right?

As promised, Lena got there in five minutes. She walked into the cafe and sat down by a man with a hoodie up.

"What's up with your get up?" Lena looked the man up and down.

Just today when she texted him about meeting up, he got out of his apartment so fast he didn't care about what he was wearing.

"...."

"Don't I pay you enough to properly dress you? Tsk…"

Gary put down his hoodie and ruffled his hair a bit. His handsome face was exposed and his eye glistened. That small gesture made him looked even cuter.

Just then, their desserts arrived.

"Ahhh.. finally.. Some coffee." Lena took a sipped but suddenly spit out the liquid back into the cup.

"What f*** is this?!"

"Uh -- your Americano? Did you not order that?" The startled waitress answered.
