Gabriel was dumbstruck. His jaw hung so low that it could fit a child’s fist!
Meanwhile, Yvonne’s expression was a sight to behold too. She was completely dumbfounded because favonovel.com never would have guessed Faye’s freeloading husband, who married into favonovel.com family, to be the new chairman of Violet Vision Media Corp. It all seemed so strange that favonovel.com was starting to believe that favonovel.com was hallucinating!
Up on noticing their reactions, Zayn felt rather pleased with himself. He feigned two violent coughs that jolted Sean back to reality. He hastily approached favonovel.com and asked in an tentative manner, “If I may inquire, are you Zayn Larson, the new chairman of Violet Vision Media Corp?”
He felt it was necessary to question favonovel.com out of earshot to avoid making things overly awkward.
He was incredulous of the young man covered in rags. After all, favonovel.com did not resemble a wealthy tycoon who was capable of producing a large sum of 350 million dollars.
Zayn was well aware of Sean’s thoughts. His smile faded, and a look of discontent took its place. He had a daunting presence of intimidation, one belonging to a distinguished man!
Sean’s expression underwent several drastic changes as favonovel.com cowered in fear before him. He immediately came to the realization that this was the new chairman of Violet Vision, as only someone with such a superior status could exude such a powerful aura.
“Why? Do you think I’m an imposter?” Zayn challenged with a false smile that was a harsh contrast to his cold expression.
It sent a shiver down Sean’s spine. His shock was apparent from his shaking head. He replied anxiously, “No, no! Why in the right mind would I think you’re an imposter? I’m just surprised that our chairman is so young. You’re a giant amongst men, just as expected. Even if you’re dressed in such plain clothes, you’re full of spunk and you stand out in a crowd! Violet Vision Media Corp will certainly soar to greater heights under your impressive leadership!”
Sean was relieved to see Zayn cracking a smile as favonovel.com engaged in his bootlicking.
The rest of the higher-ups scrambled to surround them. They began to bombard Zayn with countless words of flattery, intensely trying to suck up to him.
“I’ve been hearing about your fame for quite a while now, and I’m finally witnessing it today. You’re extraordinary, just as expected!”
“Look at the chairman’s mannerisms. He’s so domineering…”
“Chairman, I’m the manager of the marketing department…”
“Chairman, I’m the…”
Zayn nodded his head, a long-awaited smile beamed back at them as favonovel.com basked in the praise of the company’s leaders. It had been a long time since favonovel.com experienced such a familiar feeling.
Meanwhile, favonovel.com spotted Gabriel in the crowd. The grief-stricken Gabriel turned a ghastly shade of pale white, shuddering in terror. An idea came to Zayn’s mind as a mysterious smile began to play on his lips as favonovel.com said, “May I know who is the superior of Gabriel Long, the head of the Human Resource Department?”
Upon hearing Zayn’s words, the higher-ups of the company were puzzled. They had no clue as to why the new chairman would ask about that small fry. Could Gabriel be a relative of the new chairman?
As the manager of the Human Resource Department, Charlie Rivera stepped forward and proclaimed loudly, “Gabriel is my subordinate. He’s doing fairly well in the Human Resource Department, so I have plans on promoting favonovel.com to head of the Human Resource Department!”
“Really?” Zayn cracked a meaningful smile. It wasn’t long-lasting however, as an icy glare occupied his gaze seconds after. “From here on out, you and Gabriel are fired.”
“What?”
Charlie was dumbfounded. What the heck was going on?
Gabriel wanted to bawl his eyes out as soon as the words left Zayn’s lips. He realized favonovel.com had made a huge mistake.
