Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

Chapter 440 unedited

"You might not know but I heard the other assistants talk in the pantry one day, "She said. "I thought you will know since you work for her. Tell me is it true?"

"Lina, if you have evidence, say these things otherwise do not gossip about our superiors, "The first Assistant said. "If someone heard you talking behind Miss An or any of our superiors, we will face backlash. Moreover, it's not good manners."

The second assistant scoffed. "And what Miss An did to Mrs Lu?"

"That's her choice. We can't judge her, "The first Assistant said. "Mrs Mu is queen of popstar for us but for Miss An, she is only a normal person. Did you forget who Miss An is? She is a celebrity herself. She has been crowned as Miss China. One of the most followed celebrity of that time. Also, she was the one who made Yang Mei known to the world and that too with only one post. That was her influence at that time. We should not forget it!"

"That was many years ago, "The second assistant argued. 

"If you have a doubt about it, you should check her social account, "The first assistant said. "Even after all these years, you should see how many people are following her. It's more than five million even today. She is using that platform to help people even today. She is using her skills in helping many unwared people know about their rights. I don't want to say anything to you but just don't talk like that about our bosses."

"You are biased, "Lina said. "That's why we don't want to welcome to your our group." She said and let with a huff. She didn't see Amanda standing outside. A few minutes later, when the other secratary was also leaving the office, she saw Amanda and bowed her head to greet. 

"What's your name?" Amanda asked. 

"I'm Claire, CEO Li, "She answered in a soft tone. 

"Did Miss An really asked overtime for meeting Mrs Lu?" Amanda asked. 

Claire paused for a moment and then nodded her head.

"Interesting, "Amanda said. 

After a moment Claire added, "With due respect, mam, it was past her work hour. Mrs Lu came a few minutes after the office closes. She demanded an urgent meeting with Miss An and the later refused it."

"Whose side are you, Claire?" Amanda asked. 

"There are no sides, CEO Li, "Claire said. "Miss An is my boss and I'm merely telling you what transpired here."

"What about your feeling that she hurt?" Amanda asked. 

"She is my boss and I can't let personal feelings affect our professional relationship. I have to learn where to draw boundaries, "Claire said. "As a boss, she is unbaised and treats everyone fairly. I have no complaint about it."

Amanda's lips curved to form a smile. "Good. Pack your things. You will be working with my secrataries from tommorow. You will recieve an email. Now you can leave."

Claire looked up suprised but she didn't refuse her goodwill. She bowed deeply and expressed her gratitude. "Thank you, CEO Li. I will work hard."

Amanda watched her leave and a few minutes later, Ming Jun entered the office. 

"You are here, "Amanda smiled as she saw her boyfriend entering the office. He smiled back at her and closed the office door. 

"Hmm, "He hummed and pulled her for a hug. After a long day at work, he felt peace upon hugging her. "I missed you."

"I missed you too, honey, "Amanda said. 

"Shall we go home?" Amanda said after a while. "Then, you can hug me all you want."

"Are you coming with me?" Ming Jun asked, suprised. 

"Why not?" She asked. "Did you forget that we moved in together?" 

"But your father ordered you to move back, "He said. 

Amanda scoffed. "I'm in my thirties. I can no longer live with him. I know he doesn't approve of my decision. But he has to accept it. I'm not going to give in to him this time."

Ming Jun kissed her forehead and whispered, "I'm sorry that you have to suffer so much because of me."

Amanda sighed, "Jun, he doesn't approve of you. I do not need his approval. We waited many years already. In the end, I learnt that he will never approve of you or my choice. I respect him but it doesn't mean I don't want to live this life my way. I respected him enough by waiting so many years. If he loved me or respect me in return, he would have atleast given you a chance to prove himself. But he just want to force on a man on me that I do not love."

Recently her father had been threatening her with her CEO position if she didn't leave Ming Jun who was merely an office worker with no prominent family behind him. He wanted his daughter to marry a man of his choice but she rebelled against him for the first time in his life and he could not accept it. The shareholders had senses something off between father- daughter relationship and were using this opportunity to push her down. 

Since there was the presence of An Xiulan in the office who was another shareholders daughter and that too talented in her field, they wanted to use her presence to sabotage her. At this point, An Xiulan had no clue that her name had been used by the greedy shareholder for this purpose. 

"Do you know she knew all along that you were behind the door?" Ming Jun asked. 

Amanda asked, "How did you know?"

Ming Jun showed her the shades from one side that were opened and one could see anything happen outside. 

Amanda smiled. "I didn't know that she could see me but she is smart. She knew what should say and what she should not. Now I knew that she is cunning too. I need smart people by my side."

Ming Jun poked her nose lightly, "You are smart enough, my queen."

Amanda laughed. "Thank you."

"Now lets go home, "He said, holding her hand. "I missed you so much that I can't wait to hold you."

"Okay."

"We will order take-out."

"I can cook."

"Baby, I love you

but you are a terrible cook."

"Mean!"

"But I really love you."

"You better do!"
