Chapter 7
The presented directors and top managers could only endure the scolding of CEO Liz.
They did not dare to contradict her.
If they did, everyone knew that this person would not last long.
It is better to swallow this humiliation than to be targeted by this demonic G.o.ddess!
Liz Quinn was widely know as the demonic G.o.ddess from the outside world.
She earned this nickname because of her appearance and her character.
She has black hair like ebony, her skin was as white as snow and her lips were as red as blood.
Furthermore, she has cerulean blue eyes.
Some people would mistake her as Snow White.
However, she did not have the gentle features which Snow White shared instead she has sharp features.
She is not a fragile d.i.n.ky princess like Snow White.
She was the definition of bada.s.s!
Though she is tough no one could deny the fact that she is an exceptional beauty.
Beautiful like a G.o.ddess!
Liz Quinn was the feared queen of the businessworld and underworld.
In the underworld she is known with the hidden ident.i.ty "Anubis".
Like the name indicates she had the power to kill dozens of people just by lifting her small finger.
She was feared in the businessworld not only because she was at the top more because of her cruelty.
Once a business spy dared to try to steal business secrets from her company and when he was caught his fate was sealed.
He was founded half dead at his apartment.
His lower body was cut.
After he was hospitalized a s.e.x tape of him with many old bald men appeared on hot search.
Not being able to live with this shame, he commited suicide.
Since that incident no other business spy dared to set foot in her company.
At the same time the fear of her increased.
But what no one knew was that she in fact had a harsh childhood.
Her parents died in a car accident when she was a little girl and she was then placed in the care of her aunt on her mother's side.
Her aunt despised her mother because she was more beautiful, intelligent and successful than her.
Therefore, Liz was accordingly treated like human trash.
At the age of 16 Liz had had enough and left her home.
If she even can call it home.
She wanted to trample her aunt's two faced family with her success.
And so she did.
She build a business empire all by her own and became the queen of the businessworld.
Not known from the outside world she became at the same time the queen of the underworld.
Liz looked at the directors and top managers as if they are her preys.
"No one will leave this room until I am satisfied with the proposal. So better don't disappoint me. Otherwise, you have to face the consequences. And you guys don't want to disappoint me right?" said Liz with an innocent face.
The directors and top managers had the urge to vomit blood.
Seeing their CEO acting innocent was giving them more goose ups than her usual self.
Though all of them are adults they could not help but sometimes almost wetting their pants because of their fear of CEO Liz.
Suddenly a cell phone rang.
Whoever the
But sometimes courage can punish yourself.
And this was certainly the case.
This person has ventured into the lioness' den and no one will be able to rescue him from the lioness' clutches, thought all the directors and top managers.
Turns out it was the cell phone of the CEO herself!
"What?" said Liz in a calm voice.
Suddenly the temperature of the room immediately dropped.
The face of the CEO darkened and she emitted a murderous aura.
Everyone was s.h.i.+vering in fear.
"I see I will be there in no time." responded Liz in a low voice.
She then hung up and notified the directors:
"You have time until tomorrow to renew the proposal. If you think that this is not enough time, don't even dream about ever seeting foot in the working world again! You guys are now dismissed."
Not waiting for any reactions CEO Liz left the meeting room and headed to the hospital.
The patient Liz wanted to visit was her bestfriend and only friend Rose.
In this cruel and unfair world Rose was her only light.
"Doctor how is her condition and how did she ended up like this?" asked Liz worriedly.
"Her condition is now stable. It seemed like that she was..h.i.t by a car because she got distracted by her cell phone."
Liz face expression turned complex.
She knew to well what kind of distraction could make Rose so lost that she would not realize her surroundings.
She was reading mangas, manhwas, manhuas or webnovels!
This geek!
Liz seriously did not know what she should do with this girl and ma.s.saged her temples.
If this continues, her hair will turn gray due to overconcern!
Liz met Rose when she was 18.
She saw her when she was surrounded by a group of gangsters who wanted to gang **** her.
Although Liz hated it to meedle in in someone else's business she could not just stand and watch.
She took care of the whole group by herself.
Liz then offered her to train her to become stronger.
And this is how both of them got entangled.
They both became gradually close to each other.
Though their personalities could not be more different, this little lamp melted the heart of the demonic G.o.ddess.
"I will now take care of her doctor." said Liz.
The doctor nodded and left the room.
Liz then gently gazed at the sleeping little lamp and stroke her hair.
"Silly, why are you always worrying me to death?"
Feeling someone stroking her hair Rose woke up and was paralyzed when she saw Liz.
"S-Sister Liz, I - I am so sorry I will be attentive next time." said Rose like a scared little white rabbit.
"If there is a next time. Rose can you promise me to stop reading these pedagogically worthless literary works? No right?!" said Liz furiously.
Rose bit her lip and her eyes became watery.
She tried to hold back her tears.
She could not promise it her, because she was to addicted reading mangas, manhwas, manhuas and webnovels. She can not imagine a life without it!
Liz then poked her forehead and said:
"Silly, you know that I am angry at you because I am worried about you right?"
Rose then nodded her head.
"Well, I think the last novel you gave me was acceptable to read." said Liz trying to lighten up the mood.
Rose eyes then sparkled.
"Right, I am so excited of the next part which will soon be released. The ending of the first part was so abrupt and open. I wull give it to you after I have finished reading it." promised Rose.
Liz did not lie when she said that the last novel which Rose had given her was acceptable.
It really caught her attention as the plot somehow resembled her dreams which she had since she was a child.
Princess Eleanor and prince Ares, Liz thought, lost in thought.
"Ehmm Liz can you please spend the night here in the hospital with me?" asked Rose with a pleading voice.
Liz did not hesitate a moment and ordered the hospital staff to arrange her a bed beside Rose.
When both were ready for bed Rose asked with a soft voice:
"Liz will you ever hate me?"
"Silly, how could I ever hate you?"
"No matter what?" questioned Rose.
"No matter what and now sleep."
As soon as Liz was half sleep Rose stood beside her by the bed.
She leaned over to Liz and whispered to her:
"I'm sorry, please don't hate me for what I am doing now. I have no other choice."
Liz could hear Rose's voice.
However, she could not move neither could she open her eyes.
Suddenly she felt a sharp pain in her neck and she completely dozed off.
