Top Five Targets

In the spacious office on the tenth floor.

Jazamine was quietly going through the lists of all the major shareholders of the company.

"After the employees, the next thing to deal with are those malicious shareholders."

In the list, she marked certain names in big circles with a red marker.

Looking at those names, memories reemerged from her last life.

"I remember how at the election for the President these people had gone against their words... After winning profits from me, they stabbed me in the back and still elected Marcus Harrison as the new President in the end."

Jazamine's eyes darkened with hostility as she glanced at that name. "Marcus Harrison... I have not forgotten you. I have not forgotten how you had sold our family Tang enterprise to Anderson enterprise for your personal gain... Just because you were scared that you wouldn't be able to hold onto the President's position. You are a coward."

"Five of you, I will come for all of you. Just wait. One by one, I will take you down. You would underestimate me, won't you? You would assume I am the same naive and reckless girl who knows nothing of the dark side of the business. But you would be surprised once I made my moves."

Jazamine was distracted when she heard an urgent knock.

"Come in." She said without even looking up. Silently, she hid the files under her oversized office table.

With a small, unfaltering smile giving an inflexible yet warm feeling, she faced the newcomer. Her bearing was professionally immaculate.

"President Jazamine, there is something important I need to report."

The young woman's voice was rather low. She looked very jittery with flushed cheeks. Under the bounds of that cold office room, in the company of a person who was like a calm cold volcano, the young woman couldn't help but feel extremely nervous.

Jazamine didn't change her expressions. However, glancing up at the woman, she offered her comfort in her words.

"Violet. Don't be nervous. Speak openly. What do you have to say?" Jazamine recalled her from her last life. The young woman was passionate about her work. Since she was a hard worker, she was loyal. She had risen in ranks not soon after Jazamine had joined the office.

However, in the end, in the hands of Marcus Harrison, she had met a bad end after she got in a conflict with a senior officer and was forced to resign.

Violet's jittery heart felt a sudden boost of elation and confidence. "President Jazamine knows my name?"

"Violet, it is my duty to learn each and every employee's name. If I want my employees to treat me with respect, I must do the same. Shan't I?" Her voice was serene and cool with an edge of warmth.

'She is so gentle yet cool at the same time.' Listening to her words, Violet felt deeply touched. 'Even though my colleagues advised against it, I am even more certain I made the right decision to come here today.'

"President Jazamine, I fear that the employees in Tang enterprise are planning a revolt. Osbert is gathering seniors to go on a strike." Violet said that with great difficulty, fearing the President's reaction to the news.

However, after saying that, she was surprised when the small smile on the President's face didn't even waver for a second. Likewise, her eyes were still cool like still water in a clear lake.

'What? Did the President even hear her? Wait... Maybe she didn't understand what I said—'

"Violet, even if employees plan a revolt, you are not obliged to inform the top authorities according to the terms in the contract of the employment. Do you know that?"

"Yes, President."

"Do you know that after this move of yours, your colleagues will isolate you for trying to curry favor with top authorities by being their informant?"

"President..." Violet felt her heart chilling up. "I didn't do it in hopes of gaining your favor. I did it because... I naturally admire you. Trust me, I do not expect anything in return. I just want to stay loyal to the company's cause."

'You never did that in my last life. What made you admire me? Was it my change that prompted you?' Jazamine silently wondered.

After she finished saying that, silence fell in the room.

With each moment passing, Violet felt her heart pulsating harder.
