Ineffable Life (P. Mafia and Mr. Idol)

Part 42: The Marriage

Ana asks Mr. Kim to gather executives in the meeting room. Ana discussed some meeting materials as usual. And Ana suggests launching winter apparel products from last month, but there is a delay in launching due to errors during production.

"Is promoting this product now going to be a good response?" Said one of the marketing managers.

"Why indeed??" Ask Mr. Lee to represent Ana.

"Hmm... This is Ms.Grey's issue this morning.. What if it affects our sales?? or people think that this product is just a diversion of issues.."

"If it's a diversion issue or not, people will still buy it because of their needs and the quality of the goods we have.. After all, all losses are my responsibility.I will not even cut 1 cent of your salary if I experience a lot of losses.. what is being said about me should not be an excuse for you to postpone work.. I want the product to be promoted later this week." said Ana coldly.

"Isn't that too soon Ms.Grey??" Ask the manager again

"Didn't this happen a month ago?? Do you want to wait for winter to end?? Oh yes.. I heard you fired the head of the promotion team because of negligence that even though caused by yourself.. can you explain it??"

"Anu.that's. I. have solved the problem.."

"Have you finished it?? Isn't it the chief financial officer who has intervened to solve the problem?? Even you don't give him compensation and severance at all." Ana chimps again.

The manager looked uncomfortably. "Do you know how much loss the company has to pay due to the demands of the employee?? Can you answer that??"

"Ms.Grey.ma.sorry me.."

"You are now acting as if you care about the profit and loss of the company even though you have made the company lose some time ago." said Ana cynically. "If you feel burdened with the issue about me. you can leave this company at any time.." added Ana again with a deadly gaze.

The manager was embarrassed. Unable to say a word.

"Just do what Ms.Grey said.profit and loss of the company is my and Ms.Grey's business." continued Mr.Lee easing the tension of the meeting room atmosphere.

Ana took a sip of the bottled mineral water on the table and crushed the empty bottle, making everyone in the meeting room no longer dare to flinch.

Drrt..

Ana's phone on her desk vibrated. Seen on the screen the name he did not expect to call.

One or two calls at Ana's neglect because she was checking her work files. Then the third call was picked up by Ana.

"I'm busy." he replied without further ado.

"Looks like you need my help." replied someone from across.

"I don't need any help from you." replied Ana again.

"What if your men need help?"

"I don't want to deal with you Grandma.."

"Have you heard from them??" Jane this time starts to make trouble to tame Ana who has recently revolted against her.

Ana immediately turns off Jane's call, then calls Mr. Zhou.

Many times Ana calls but there is no answer. Shortly thereafter a message from Mr. Zhou was sent.

"Great Lady Jane kidnapped your men. They paralysed all the guards in my mansion.." The contents of the message made Ana growl.

"What do you want??" Ask Ana cynically.

"Meet someone in the lobby of the GC hotel tonight.then your men will be fine.."

"Who am I going to meet??" Ask Ana flat.

"Later you'll find out." Jane replied briefly and then disconnected her call.

Ana glanced at her watch, and she contacted Albert. There was no response from Albert. Ana is waiting for news from her brother about the whereabouts of Aunt Layla. Yesterday afternoon Aunt Layla sent a short message saying that she had arrived at her friend's house. When dialed back, the phone number is no longer active.

While during Louis at the shooting place he was always surrounded by paparazzi who wanted to interview him. Sandra who became his co-star also asked what was rumored about him and Ana.

"I read the news about you. Did you actually date Ms. Grey?? Isn't the company sponsoring you??" sandra asked as they were resting at the shooting location.

"I don't want to talk about it." replied Louis ketus. Actually Louis was also not very fond of the attitude and nature of Sandra during shooting together. Sandra is a new artist who is starting to rise, she also admitted that she is a big fan of Louis, but sometimes she acts tacky and annoying. He often photographed Louis silent while on the set of shooting. Even always stick to Louis with reasons to get a good appreciation when acting later.

"Did he tease you with money??" he said again late.

"Hey.keep your word !! She wasn't such a woman." snapped Louis loudly making those around them see. Mr. Dong approached Louis immediately.

"What's Lou??" asked Mr. Dong whispered.

"This girl is really overdue.she said nothing about Ms.Grey.." Louis grumbled in a high tone. "As long as you know, I wish that she would really tease me. Unfortunately, she's not that kind of woman.." Louis added resolutely as he ruffled his waist and left Sandra agape at Louis' scolding and grumbling.

Of course he became very embarrassed because many saw them. Previously Sandra had also been repeatedly reprimanded by producers at the shooting location because she was too much behavior, especially because she often got complaints because it made Louis uncomfortable when shooting.

Louis walked to his van and decided to take a short break there before resuming shooting again.

"Hey.you must keep your words while at the shooting location.Many eyes see.." exclaimed Mr. Dong reminded.

"I don't care if people talk bad things about me. But not my family or Ana. because only I know how they are." Louis replied, closing his eyes to stifle his anger.

"I know how you feel. You have to be patient and calm. Everything will be fine soon.." Mr. Dong could only try to calm Louis down.

That night after finishing at Ana's office immediately on the shuttle Mr. Kim to GC hotel, because this morning he did not bring a vehicle because it was picked up by Albertl. He found the man in the photo in his cell phone message. Jane sent him a picture of Franz.

The handsome, tall, well-built man greeted Ana warmly when Ana arrived at the hotel restaurant.

"Well, you're so much prettier than the photo I saw." she was amazed.

Ana just smiled knot. Then immediately sat down across from Franz.

"Sorry to keep you waiting a long time.."

"Ah.no.I also just came down. I just packed my stuff first in the room. This hotel is really amazing.." Fanz stayed at GC hotel as per grandma Jane's invitation.

Again Ana just smiled without answering the praise for the praise.
