Chapter 5
Veira Point of View
Fate – is a f**ked up concept!
And I am its play doll!
I scoffed at my own self. How was I living before the incident and how I am now! Did I offend the forces of the planet somehow to receive sudden punishments from not only good but evil too?
I lied trillions of times in my life; no, that's the core essence of my life but I never fell in trouble for my own lie.
This all happened when that rotting pack made precise plans to check my statements. Not only did they have some suspicions still lingering with them, they went as far to threaten me to prove myself.
I could've proved my statements happily if it was some kind of small and medium enterprise but I had to go overboard and link myself with VIBE.
That fudging conglomerate is huge!
I could've kicked myself for getting myself in the mess if not for the prying eyes on me. They followed me like mosquitoes until I reached the VIBE research center and pronounce myself as the MD that has been working from dark.
'Are they stupid? With your age, how come they believed you are the talented chairperson of the whole group?' Thank the Goddess Dea is the not one of the audience.
'Beats me. But it's good that they did not raise the question yet.' I replied turning my attention back to the old men who are eager to talk to me.
What did I get myself into!
"Why did you decide to reveal yourself now, Miss Lupus?" What was his name again? This man has been interrogating me right from the moment I stepped in and I don't like it a bit.
He is particularly being offensive to me, considering I'm supposed to be their boss. This flock of cattle is hard to set right.
"Do you expect me to stay in the shadows and work? Mr. Miller, you can't be hiding something from me, do you." Maintaining my smile, I jested out those rude words making sure to show him his place.
I glanced through the whole room and my Goddess it was spacious so beautiful. The office cabin is decorated in simple but it was so neat and catchy. Whoever the real one is, he sure has good taste in maintaining his things.
While the office cabin is simple and gorgeous, the whole building is beyond amazing. Everything is made of clear glass; all the researchers, doctors and employees have different coats depending on their course of work.
The researchers wear white lab coats; the intern researchers wear white coats with a blue arm band as a notification of their deployment. The managers of different departments are to wear gray armbands which signify that they have access to the outer circle of labs to an extent.
Other than mangers, the directors are allowed to go inside the labs but only to a certain limit. While the directors have no arm bands or coats, they can enter the closed rooms of labs only after they are registered with iris recognition and fingerprint every time they go in.
The real MD of the group made a notable effort to draw limitations for every single designation so as to maintain a clear order.
"We welcome you officially, Miss Lupus. We are happy to finally work with you in person." Mr. Miller, the old piranha, cleared his throat and gave a welcome speech in hurry.
I nodded curtly with a polite smile, an expression that learnt from my years of swindling experience.
I was just about to reply them, when my nose made a dive into an amazing smell of wet rainy forest. Just a simple smell, only a smell made my heart skips a beat.
I recognize smells of all the people inside the office room with me and this one is a new goodness that wafted me into a virtual magical world, dropped me on the wet soil surrounded by colorful forest blessed with flowers of all kind.
My eyes rolled back at the sudden blow of sprinkles of magic that hit me. My head felt light but relaxed, my body felt foreign yet belonged, my brain sensed something otherworldly while my heart went unruly yet constrained.
I felt a moment of contradictions between me and myself but it actually felt so good.
Have you ever felt you were whisked off for a passionate kiss but it was just a daydream that too when you were very much awake and sober?
Who is it that got me feel this way?
My supposed personal assistant got my attention when he brought a couple of men for introduction. My eyes travelled towards the both and assessed them keenly.
The seemingly older one of the two caused nothing in me but there was the younger one of the two whose smell made me go crazy a moment ago.
Did I like the feeling? I don't know but it sure is a new kind of feeling.
It was my first time ever that someone or something as simple as someone made me go haywire.
"Miss Lupus, this is Dr. Silva and Dr. Cazacu, the two senior most researchers and professors who created great medicines." He introduced.
So his name is Cazacu and he is a doctor and researcher.
"I'm Veira, Pleased to meet the real backbone of my company." I stretched my hand for a formal shake and received only one in return.
When I looked back at Dr. Cazacu, I found him raise an eyebrow at me with his eyes filled with well seasoned suspicion.
He nonetheless replied me with a handshake and a polite nod. That moment, I knew something is definitely wrong.
My years of living alone and stranded as a rogue wolf, I can easily sense that there is something seemed not just fishy but pond of rotten fishy by the look I received from him.
'Hey Dea, what is wrong with him? Do you think he caught our act?' I rattled Dea's cage for an answer.
That animal sure is blinded by face masks but at an important moment, her assumptions does make sense.
'Dea?' I called her but did not receive an answer.
I checked to see if she is finally paralyzed or better dead but pleasantly, she isn't. 'Dea, you horny specimen of devoted fashion terrorist! Answer me.'
Receiving no answer from her end, I gave up on her. There are two possibilities for her silence right now;
One, she is absorbed by the new hot steak in front of us or two, she is busy referring the beauty manual she made religiously quite seriously.
In both cases, she isn't helpful at all.
"We never thought we were being supervised by such a young boss, Miss. Lupus. You are indeed a great businesswoman." Dr. Silva appreciated me politely in a tone that a senior and a sophisticated executive would.
"The luck is mine to have a batch of excellent doctors and directors like you all. If it isn't for the smart doctors and amazing directors like you, how would I be standing before you in one happy piece? You all shared my burden equally and took several blows for me to make this company what it is now." I went on with airy words that could tame all of them here to a little degree.
When looked at everyone, all but Dr. Cazacu and my PA seemed pretty proud of themselves. The both who weren't proud had their mouth agape almost enough to put the whole building inside easily.
"I was a young girl who started VIBE when most of the kids my age went to schools. Am I a genius to achieve it by the such a young age? I would say I'm lucky to have a bunch of genius supporters like you to reach this heights. You don't know how dependent I was on you all when I chose not to reveal myself and continue doing business. Mr. Miller, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Valdez, Mr. Brown, Mr. Ferrari, Mr. Silva, Mr. Cazacu and all the other Gods of our celestial kingdom made it happen. We are indeed human but to people out there who are suffering from unimaginable pain and illness, we are no less than Gods. In fact I consider myself a normal human blessed by all of you."
With my heightened senses I felt everyone drowned in mixture of emotions by the end of my speech. There was mostly prideful joy garnished with supportive smiles except for the two who were surprised and frowning at me.
That was when I heard something which none heard. Through my sensitive hearing, I heard the two dreadful statements that made the ground beneath me befall.
One statement from Dea to me that caused me a whole new level of anger and ridicule and the other from Dr. Cazacu whispering to PA that sealed my impending miserable end.
Before I was resurrected from Dea's usual screech confession of 'Veira, my annoying human, that hot lava is our mate. This time it is as permanent and real as the blush on my cheeks. ', I was completely dead beyond resurrection when a new profound revelation made its way.
"She has guts to take my place in my own company."
