บท 14: Fired
----Clark's POV----
As we're having a meeting The atmosphere in the meeting room was so tense. I was just there sitting on the side of the long table facing the big projector whiteboard. I put his arm on my chair arm as my face slightly leaning on my fist while his legs crossed. My cold eyes could definitely pierce them if they look back. All of the marketing department members gathered in the meeting room. All of them were shivering while looking down, doesn't want to look back. All of them got scared of my presence. At least they know something bad going to happen...
"Hey..." I say coldly. All of them jump out of scare thinking if they're going to be scolded by me. As I stand up all of them got nervous about what's gonna happen next.
"All of the members of the Marketing Department..." All of them hearts start to pound crazy, some were breathing heavily can't take anymore the suspense.
"Are fired!" I say as he bams his hands on the table. Most of them stand due to shock.
"Mr. Clark, You can't do that...."
"Mr. Clark what about..."
"Sir, How?"
"What's happening?"
So noisy... All of them started to protest against me, Shouting every sentenced came out in their mouth. And I don't like it....! They even dare to shout at my face... I scoff... They really have nerves huh? I raise my head to them as I glare intense to them. All of them keep quiet right away, become speechless. All the loud noises coming in their mouth made me a little bit annoyed. Good, they know how to shut up. I thought I need to cut off their tongues before they become quiet
"You know why?" I stand up straight and raise his left eyebrow to them. Still, shocked and speechless.
"You guys aren't improving, what if the sales of the company are about to decrease and none of you ever tried to make a solution for it." Cs company has been the biggest and outstanding in the world. Just what the hell happened now? This bunch of fools is messing the company's rank. Looks like I've been soft to them. The only reason I'm quite soft because Stephanie told me to because it may cause a huge problem if I do that. Well, unfortunately, it turns out the opposite. This time I'm not going to let them off to their mistakes again!
"What? Waiting for my help? What are you, a damsel in distress? You guys don't even have the will to make a solution for it. I've been observing you guys from the beginning." I say with a smirk while cross-arm. After what I said, Secretary Lee who is beside me flashes something on the projector. They all look at the projector and got eyes to widen. All of the members in the marketing department have a certain picture each one of them flashes at the board.
"Ordering around people who have a lower position, drinking coffee all the time, always on the phone, sleeping in the desk, and lastly passing others work." Secretary Lee says while pushing his glasses up as he explains everything. From the start I know we shouldn't take things easy so I watch every move they make not only in the Marketing Department but all employees of the Cs company.
"My company doesn't want to have an indolent people like you. Now get out of my company or else you want to end up on the other world." I say coldly. All of them hesitated to leave, shivering on losing their jobs but all went to leave at once. Even if you beg I won't change my words.
When all of them left, I turn around to Secretary Lee. Who was standing straight and no reaction the entire time, keeping his professionalism?
"And you," I say coldly to him as my face turns to him.
"Find people who could replace the members of the Cs company, I don't care where just people who know how to do their job well. If not, you're the one going to pay for it." I say as I pick up my coat in one hand on my shoulder then leaves. Leaving him behind.
"Yes, Mr. Clark."
----That Night----
"What? You fired all the members of the Marketing Department?" Stephanie shouted at me when I told her what happens. Ughh... So noisy... I roll over my eyes away from her.
We were at my study, we just arrived earlier and it's so late because we have been busy around. And there was my sister shouted at me while I was still doing my work. I always stayed up all night finishing the other documents needed.
"Well, I don't blame you... It's a good choice though... But how are you going to replace them?" Stephanie sighs then ask confusedly. I paused on what I was doing and looks at her.
"Okay... I don't like that look." She back away a bit.
"Well, if you hadn't asked me not to be soft which I don't do. This kind of thing wouldn't happen."
I made a faked smile to her as I crush the crumpled paper on my hands. Stephanie made an awkward laugh.
"Bur rest assured I'll be able to handle it. The Cs Company will be back again on its feet." I say coldly to her but proudly as I toss the paper, not looking at the bin.
"Wow... back to being cold," Stephanie says as she stares the paper going on the bin.
"What? You got something to say?" I coldly look at her.
"Tsk..." Stephanie scoffs at me.
"I'll just remind you, I'm leaving tomorrow morning..." Stephanie says.
"Yeah..." I say indifferently not looking at her. I'm still busy looking at my papers. Well, tomorrow going to be interesting... She then sighs... Well, you could go back now...
"Nevermind, I'll leave you alone. I'm also busy like you, you know." Stephanie wave as she was walking toward the door. Are you really busy? Alas... I can now focus...
"Night."
"Night..."
We say to each other as the door closes.
----Stephanie's POV----
I was at my room sitting on my desk where a dual monitor was there where I used when making some sketches for work. The other one is for drawing and the other one is for gathering information. As I was there putting all my ideas on my sketch. I remember I was going to have a business trip tomorrow. I sigh, It's going to be a long day tomorrow I swear... I haven't packed my clothes so I guess I'll just do it tomorrow morning. As I stretch my arm yawning. I wonder if William's ready for tomorrow. Wait! I stand up from my seat right away. Oh, I forgot him to tell him about this! I got my phone and started dialing his number. As I seat down waiting on his answer.
"Hey, I'm busy, call me later," William says annoyingly to the other side of the phone. His background music was full of men grunting. Looks like they're still in training... William's in charge of our men training, he is quite difficult to follow as their superior. One mistake and you're going to do it all again but this time it'll be harder.
"Oh, is that so? Okay bye..." I say playfully as I was about to end the call to tease him. You really have gots huh, even though you don't know who you're talking to. I wonder what will be his reaction when Clark was the one who called him. He'll be a corpse tomorrow that's for sure...
"Stephanie!? Hey, wait!" I quickly move my phone away from my ear protecting my ear from damaging William's loud voice as he was trying to stop me. Haha, I knew it... I chuckle as I heard his reaction. This guy doesn't even check who called him...
"Oh, I thought you were busy?" I playfully ask as I put the phone on my hear again,
"Sorry, I thought you were someone else..." He silently says... Haha, his too cute. Wait... what? No, focus okay?
"Anyway, I'm going on a business trip tomorrow so might as well come with me?" I ask innocently.
"M-me?" He stutters a bit. What's wrong with him?
"What, you don't want to?" I ask confusingly. It's fine if he don't want to but I'll have difficulty finding other.
"No! I would like to come! I'll be there tomorrow morning." He says excitedly. Geez... Just a trip... Why so excited about. I chuckle a bit.
"Well then bye..." I say quietly.
As I hang up the one I once again stretches both of my arms as my back lay down a bit. I stare of my glass wall looking at bright stars in the sky.
Tomorrow's gonna be a long day...
