Chapter 58: The Yang Empire

Yang Subsidiary in Country P.

Belle is sitting comfortably at the CEO's office. Her feet placed atop of the office table, crossed. She's been looking at some files that was related to what she did a week ago. She could not help but put an arc on the edge of her red lips. She's absorbed in reading when her secretary, Mr.Tao appeared before her.

"Young miss. Everything is settled here. Why don't you go back to the main?" the secretary asked. He was a man with thin built. He had his round glasses on and a fake smile everytime. If one would look at him, they will find it creepy.

"Not yet. Leonard is not yet dead and that little sister of mine. I want them dead yet, heavens loved them. Sigh. How can I kill them?" she stated in a dramatic tone but her face said otherwise. She hated Misha for having their mother all to herself.

She grew up like a pampered princess to the people's eyes but it was a direct contrast of how she really lived and climbed up to the top of the Yang empire.

"If that's what you want young miss. Your subordinate obeys." Mr. Tao said as he slowly retreated from the room.

The sun is about to set and it made yellow and orange rays on the skies. It even lighted the dim office Belle has in. She placed the folder down the table and clasped her fingers altogether. She had been wearing a fitted black leather pants and a black tank top. Her boots were placed atop of the table and played with the chair while thinking of something.

She scoffed later on.

She suddenly remembered her father. He made sure that none of his sibling will touch her until his succession. They tried everything just to kill her and prevent Billie from succeeding the old man's business. The Yang empire is one of the largest conglomerate in the whole world. It was second to the Lewis Empire.

The Yang's however had a tradition that whoever can produce an heir first, will be the successor of all the wealth of the family. Including the family business, residential and commercial areas, apartments, hotel, condominiums and the trading business they have.

The Yang Empire was founded by her great great grandfather. It was a simple family business at first but they have expanded tremendously over the years. Conquering every aspect of business sectors. They also hold a great influence of the underground businesses. They even have few of them but all was in a dummy accounts.

Belle caught in between the fight for succession. Even if she doesn't want to, she was forced to inherit her father's business at the age of 18. She was at college at that time taking up a management course. Of course, it was the will of her father. She succeeded the business and brought it to another heights of glory. The business expanded and the stock skyrocketed during her succession. With that, the old man appointed her to be the heir of the Yang Empire.

Her father was angry at her. To him, she has stolen something from him. The seat should be his not hers but the old man was firm of his decision and after he pushed Belle to the seat, he passed away-- leaving no room for her to decline the position.

The funniest thing was, even her father attempted to kill her but the result was in reverse. She killed Billie Yang. Because if not, she will be the one who will eventually get killed.

Somehow, she managed. Even though, almost everyday there was an assassination attempt for her. She had managed to survive and stand to this point of her life. She learned how to harden her heart and be merciless towards every one who betrayed her.

To her, betrayal is the greatest sin one could ever commit towards her.

After her succession of the position as chairman and CEO of the Yang Empire, many of the shareholders opposed and wanted to pull their shares out. However, before they could do so, they were bought by Belle and made them stay at the company as the dummy.

Soon after, the Yang Empire was brought to another heights of glory with Belle's lead. They conquered the oil and mining industry; defeating one company after another. Her moves were bold and ruthless and etched fear of whoever challenged them.

The Yang Empire now dominated even the underground arena. They smuggled guns and ammunition, drugs and even women and child trafficking.

Now, she was called a demoness in her circle of 'friends'.
