Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Clearing the misunderstandings

Adrian had said so when she was in her mid 20s. Now, she is 22.

So 'nobody would stop her' was only applicable after a few years and now, she would be stopped? 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

She could only blame herself for missing this detail.

Back then, she had not cared much.

To hell with your company and to hell with your mansion and you. She had thought.

Who knew that barely one life later, she would come running here, eating her own words?

The receptionist's face had altered colours by now, ''Yes, you need an appointment to see the President. Now, if you don't have it, please...'' she pointed towards the exit.

''I know him,'' Ella inhaled a deep breath, ''Just give him a call, tell him my name and he will know.''

The receptionist's polite mask finally showed huge cracks, ''Miss, please show yourself out or I will have to call the security to drag you outside.''

Ella pinched the spot between her brows, ''Miss, I understand that you are doing your job but shouldn't you consider giving me the benefit of doubt and calling him to check? Or you can call his secretary to confirm...''

''There is no need. I do not need to look into it to confirm that the President would not interact with the likes of you... Security!"

As the security walked towards her, someone else was faster.

''Miss Yu?"

Ella turned towards the man who seemed to be in his mid 30s.

Ji Yan shot the security a piercing stare before he came to stand in front of her.

The man was born and brought up in Vermilion City and from what Ella knew, he had remained with Adrian for a major part of his life and now, he was the man's secretary.

Seeing him, Ella touched the back of her head, ''Well, I didn't cause much trouble, did I?"

''Not at all! Please, this way!" Ji Yan led the way towards the VIP elevator under everyone's shocking stares.

The elevator moved to one of the topmost floor and once they got out, Ji Yan spoke again, ''The head servant informed me about your arrival but I was stuck with some work so it delayed me a little...''

Ella waved her hand, ''Don't worry, I won't complain at all.''

Ji Yan: "_"

He was sincerely apologizing. But it only now crossed his mind that she was planning to complain if he did not apologize in time.

He sweated a little.

Seeing him like that, Ella sighed.

Being the subordinate of a man who was obsessed with a woman was a tough job.

You don't just have to please the man but his woman also, knowing that at any given point, she might just pillow talk her way into getting you fired.

Tsk tsk.

When Ella entered the office, she was instantly struck with the huge place. It was even bigger than her room in the mansion which was already larger than a normal master bedroom.

After a moment, she recovered her senses and turned to look at the man who was standing near the window.

His back was facing towards her.

''Second Master, Miss Yu is here,'' Ji Yan declared before he bowed and left.

Adrian did not turn around even after her presence was declared.
