Capítulo 11: Juan Long
Everyone stopped whatever they were doing when the men were caught in sight and when the royal badge at their front pockets became very clear, all jaws dropped!
Median telecommunications was only a regular company and so they never got to be involved with those companies from the top, all the more Montarini Corporate. So everyone's reaction right then cannot not be painted, even Mr. Wandley's.
The old man already knew about the guests as the attention of the executives had been called earlier when the parade of handsome men flooded at the company's entrance. This was the reason why he asked Crescent about it. What confused him was that even Crescent herself seemed to have been shocked with their presence so he didn't know what to think anymore.
What is Montarini's business with her?
"Are you Miss Garza?" One of those men came forward to ask while Crescent was still blinking thoroughly at the moment, very much not believing it all, especially when they all came to her direction. Crescent seemed to have not heard the question because she only looked at them thoroughly and Georgi had to push an elbow to her so she could react.
"Ahmmm...yes. I am Miss Garza," She answered as soon as she recovered.
"Our boss wants to speak with you in private Miss," The man announced and everyone's eyebrows raised at it, especially when they heard the word 'boss'.
They meant Huzey Montarini right?
"Ahmm, yeah sure," She answered, still in daze. For a moment she didn't know what to do next and just stared at the man she was speaking to, not until she heard him speak again.
"Is there somewhere in here you can talk privately?"
"My office perhaps…" Crescent answered but then Georgi pushed an elbow to her again.
"Beyotch you don't have an office," He told her and only if it was a regular day, everyone would surely laugh at it. However right then, no one dared to, not when someone from Montarini Corporate was there.
"You can use my office Miss Garza," Mr. Burchman, Crescent's direct boss who purposely went to check on their visitors, offered right away. He was informed about the presence of some Montarini employees and the fact that they were all looking for Crescent and so he went to check it out, like everyone else there.
"Okay..okay..follow us," Georgi took the lead and then dragged the girl, because Crescent herself wasn't in her right mind then. She was still in daze, wondering what these people wanted from her. Out of all the employees in Median Telecom, she was the only foreigner and so she could not connect the dots on why in the world someone from Montarini Corporate would take interest in her.
In just a minute, they reached Mr. Burchman's office and Georgi let Crescent sit there while he stood at her back.
"Let your boss come, Miss Garza is ready," Georgi announced.
"He only wants to speak with Miss Garza sir so I would appreciate it if you would give them privacy," The man told Georgi whose plan at this moment fell. Truth was he took the lead because he wanted to make an impression that he was needed there and that perhaps he can be there while Crescent and her visitors talked so he would be aware what was this all about. However, the Montarini employee saw through his plans and dismissed him blatantly.
"Alright," Georgi faked a smile and gave Crescent a hard gaze before he went out.
"Wait a moment Miss," The man announced and turned to the rest of his companions at the door. "Escort the boss here,"
"Yes sir," They all answered in unison and went to fetch their boss.
Outside, a lot of Median telecom employees flocked Crescent's department because it was just right outside Mr. Burchman's office. They were all very curious and wanted to pry on such a rare event. Why in the world would Montarini Corporate be interested in Crescent? Perhaps it was indeed true that she had great talents and perhaps Montarini Corporate wanted to poach her.
Very soon, the parade of men came back and was now escorting another man whom they all recognized as Juan Long. He was one of the trio—the three most trusted men of the prince who handles all his business dealings and transactions. Huzey Montarini never showed up anywhere and so in every occasion and transactions, one of the trio's came on his behalf which made them very popular.
"Oh God if Juan Long is here, it means their dealings with Miss Garza are very important," Someone from the Median Telecom employees announced.
"You are right! The trio only appears on big events and important dealings of Montarini Corporate. For him to be here, it means this is something very very important,"
"Oh God what can it be? What's their business with Miss Garza? Gosh! How can she be so lucky!"
"Perhaps they learned about her skill that's why they came for her,"
When Juan Long entered the door, Crescent herself was surprised. Of course she knew him, especially that he appears in televisions and some other publications for interviews. However the man's presence then only confused her more as she never thought their business with her was very important. Right then, she was dying to know what it was already.
"Juan Long," The man extended a hand and Crescent accepted it for a short shake.
"Crescent Garza," The girl replied. She had recovered from her unbelief already and so she put on a professional aura as she was very aware this was a business transaction.
"Well I won't beat around the bush Miss," He opened right away as he sat down in front of Crescent. He then took something in his suitcase, the one he was carrying and pulled out some pictures for the girl to see.
"These are…" Crescent immediately recognized the pictures he showed her and the girl ended up wondering what all this had something to do with the Montarini Corporate.
"These are all your works," Juan Long finished it for her. "We had run a background check and we know you are the one behind this,"
