Secret Marriage:The Wolf And The Sheep Chapter 39
Advertisement
Everyone in the ballroom agreed as they heard the words Elder Lu had to say.Owning the shares of Lu Enterprises may sound like a dream come true but it came with many responsibilities.And from the Lady Lu's words, it was clear that the beautiful girl had no training in business and she had been living on the Lu family's charity.Some older people tried to think of the news of the daughter of Old man Lu in the past but all they could think of was that the girl had disappeared suddenly from the business scene..So it was because she had died...she must have married some poor man otherwise why would she leave business?
Xie Eun stood on the stage, listening to her grandmother the last person she had wanted to believe would betray her and her eyes glittered.This woman had showered her with sweet words for the last two years.She had coaxed her again and again to spend the Lu family's money and live a luxurious life.But she was lucky that her upbringing was such that she had refrained and spent only the money she received from her father's investments.It was sparse but it covered her and Aunt Su's expenses .That was enough...if this grandmother had only asked her to sign away these papers,she would have done that but they used her innocence and her truet against her and for that they would have to pay a price!Her grandmother was right in one aspect though,she knew nothing of business..But she was well prepared for tonight at least.
"Grandmother, I may be young but I am no one's fool.Yeona and I are the same age and while she has been modelling in the last two years,I have been studying business in the National University for the past two years.And Inwould like you to enlighten me on how I would be an ingrate by claiming what was rightfully left to me?And what is this about your kindness that I am hearing?What have you done for your orphaned granddaughter that you had not met for eighteen years?Grandfather left the will open for both of us.She and I were both unaware of the terms.But you knew the truth did you not?That I already met the conditions of the will!"

"And responsibility towards millions?I would like to know what Lu Yeona has done for the Lu Enterprises that would help the company regain its lost footing in the international market?"
Every word that Xie Eun spoke resounded in the ballroom as the guests slowly realised that they had unknowingly become witness to a battle for Lu Enterprises' heir..But many of the buainessmen agreed with Xie Eun's words.Lu Enterprises was indeed a prey waiting to be swallowed by the sharks.Whoever the next CEO would be,they would have a tough battle to make it stand to it's past glory.And this battle would turn intona blood bath if such internal fighting was discovered.Until now, most of the people had stayed because of the board of trustees but if an inexperienced person were to take the mantle then it would be a disaster for them and a feast for their competitors.In such a case,however they were inclined to support Lu Yeona because she had the backing of Old Lady Lu who was experienced in business.But what happened next shocked everyone and all the guests already started to make plans on how to suck upto Xie Eun..
While all this was going on,Xie Eun had walked over to a nearby projector that had been playing the slides of Lu family's achievements and handed a pen drive.Her voice then resonated in the ballroom,"Tomorrow,I will take my rightful place as the heir of Lu Enterprises and this is what I will bring with me."
With that,the ballroom turned dark and a single spotlight shone on the screen..People whinunderstood legal jargon all swarmed forward to read and felt their breaths collectively stop..It was an agreement between Alpha Companies and Miss Xie Eun.It stated that after Miss Xie took over the company shares, Lu Enterprises would receive a 100 billion dollar investment from Alpha Companies and Miss Xie would receive apprentice training from the Wolf himself after she had completed her education.In the interim, the Alpha Group would appoint a temporary CEO for Lu Enterprises. The control of the company shares will remain with Miss Xie while the profits will be shared equally.

These details were enough to make anyone's head roll back but the last sentence made people almost faint.At the end of five years, Lu Enterprises would need to return only the investment left out after adjusting the profits.
The businessmen all looked at Xie Eun with a different respect now.Until now,they had been amused by the little girl's play for trying to rise above her station but now...just what was this girl capable that the notoriously reclusive Wolf agreed to such terms.How did a hunter suddenly become so benevolent..was he feeding the prey to make it fatter?But if that was the case,why were all the conditions in Miss Xie's favor?

Kind’s Kiss
MAGIC DOESN'T KILL, NOT BY ITSELF. IT NEEDS A LITTLE HELP. Jessica DeRidder is a substitute teacher and mage in hiding, her daughter Ellen a killer on the run. Their next job lands the mother-daughter team in Hellhole, a small town in the middle of nowhere. All they need to do is their job. For Mom to identify the problem, and for Ellen to... fix it. Easy. Simple. But not this time. The pair find themselves caught in the struggle between the Man-in-White and the Wicked Witch of the West. A mysterious image and the theft of a deadly flower lead the pair to a score of dead prisoners, magical drug dealers, and red-eyed assassins falling from the sky. And somehow it all seems to be related to Ellen's murky past. All Ellen wants to do is do her homework, eat ice cream, and protect her newfound friends (not necessarily in that order). She'll go all-in, guns blazing. But when the smoke clears there may be nothing left but a stranger's past and a lonely future. --- 'Kind's Kiss' is a light, modern-day fantasy, easy on the magic, heavy on the snark. Though complete it is still a work in progress. One reviewer described it as 'Buffy meets Sabrina, as done by Tarantino'. I'm still not sure if I should consider that a compliment or hire a hitman :-)
