6. President’s Room

President’s Room

“Mr. Xaldrich?” whispered the people in the room.

“Here’s to you guys, thanks for staying here… and sorry for making you guys wait so long. Next time I will take care of the blood supply myself.”

Twenty vampires had gathered in the room next to the parking lot. Where are the clanless vampires, pedigree, employed as a cleaning service, and low-class employees. If they were in another area, they might have starved to death, so it was normal to think that they weren’t given fresh blood all the time. They never complain and do their duty with pleasure.

For vampires like them, being allowed to remain in the building and even the Dorgalan area was a huge boon. Seeing the children drinking greedily made him remember the past. So silent.

“Celine, be careful, don’t act rudely in front of Master Xaldrich!” said a woman to the child.

With teary eyes, the girl wiped the remaining red liquid on her thin cheeks with a shirt. Quickly bow and apologize. Damian’s cold eyes focused on them. Then his big hand patted the top of the girl’s head, known as Celine. Looking down and slightly tilting his head, he said to finish all the drinks he brought for the day without exception.

“Because tomorrow, I will bring the same amount of things. Please, enjoy with a happy heart. I’m doing all this for you guys, have fun to cheer me up, you understand?” Damian said, touching a relatively large suitcase.

After that, he said goodbye to go back to the office and promised to stop by tomorrow morning to make sure they all drank all his gifts.

Not a few of them were touched by the special treatment of the clan leader. In the past, there was always a supply of red liquid, but not directly. And now, everyone knows how the company’s finances are and what sacrifices its leaders have made. This creates a growing sense of caring.

“Damian Van Xaldrich...” Spelled softly.

A beautiful woman seemed to be walking around the big table after reading the name written on the rank board. There are some ancient and strange ornaments arranged in such a way on it. Until then, Almeera’s beautiful bluish bead caught an interesting object. Without thinking, she picked up a small box with carvings on each side to satisfy her curiosity.

Slightly lifted the object and looked closely and carefully. As if familiar with the ancient language engraving on the box lid. Damian, who had just arrived, immediately closed the door tightly, quickly approaching the blonde-haired woman to snatch what was his.

He is very displeased when someone touches objects in his room without permission, even if it’s a janitor. Because everything there is closely related to the Dorgalan family lineage, a genetic legacy.

“You can’t hold it carelessly!” Damian said.“Hmm… well, you’re not giving me free access?” Almeera’s brow furrowed, placing her palms on the table and looking straight into the handsome man’s eyes.

Damian took a deep breath. “What belongs to you is me, not this company and everything in it, right?”

Hearing this, she just kept silent while smiling meaningfully. It was predictable what the woman would do after changing her plan to return home to visit the VSOUTE office—just looking around or making a mess. And the order could not be refused unless Damian agreed to withdraw the money from his account.

Slowly there was a creak of chair legs. Black eyes lifted, and he saw the beautiful-faced woman standing behind the chair of his pride. What could be called the throne of a vampire clan leader, not just the director of a company.

“Sit down,” said Almeera, her hands still on the back of the chair.

Although confused, the man was forced to obey the wishes of the woman. Of course, it made Almeera very happy. She immediately stood in front of the table so that now they were facing each other.

She touched the surface of Damian’s neck. “I didn’t think… the color would be this beautiful.”

Just silent, he didn’t even know how to respond. Rather than being wrong, it’s better not to open his mouth. In Almeera’s eyes, currently Damian was like a very obedient and adorable cat. Such is the desired figure. However, it was not enough to make up for the humiliation that had occurred in the past.

“In a few days, I will announce you to the world as one of the men that I have. So get ready, Damian.” Almeera stroked the muscular arm that was wrapped in the white cloth.

The day, he said, coincided with the 48th anniversary of the Laurens family-owned jewelry company. The event will be made as luxurious as possible. Although reluctant, people will still be present at the party to maintain their position in terms of peace. Don’t want to be seen as demeaning Almeera.

“You know, hmm? What should we do in front of people to make sure that you and I love each other?” Her mischievous hands unbuttoned a few buttons of Damian’s white shirt. Make the man put on a depressed expression if you want to harass him, at least not in that place.

“I totally understand, Miss,” Damian replied, looking away.

“Don’t delay. Like I said last time, tomorrow you should be able to pounce on me first! Show your prowess bravely, Honey!”

Damian’s stomach churned again with nausea. Still not used to the strange names from the woman. Sneaky and ridiculous.

“Oh! Haven’t I introduced you to another boy yet? Also, ask Chan-yeol to teach kissing techniques and videos- ummh!”

For a moment, Almeera was wide-eyed when Damian’s hand covered the mouth. “I will study well without the need for examples or teachers. You just shut up and prepare your lips for me to be completely crushed.”

“Ha ha ha! Okay!” Almeera moved away from the table. It made him a little confused. “Isn’t it time for me to return to the residence? Or go straight to the office?” A glimpse of her cheeks The man stood up when he saw the key in her small hand. Seeing her looking the other way felt a little strange. However, Damian was excited because after dropping her off, he was able to come back here and be able to rest for a while without Almeera’s fussy distractions.

***

Almeera Laurens is a strange woman. However, she is quite responsible for the work. People who don’t know will think they’re just hanging out and relaxing. Yes, indeed, because it looks so obvious. As if with these bad habits, employees will eat blind salaries and work hard.

However, even with one glance, the tall man knew that the employees of the Laurens family company had great respect for their superiors. As well as, the aura of peace that is felt is impossible to create if the leader is not fair. Within a few minutes, Damian had a little admiration for the woman but soon came to his senses at the deteriorating state of his honor.

“Uuuh… how annoying. She said I should kiss her?”

He rubbed his face roughly, then pretended to read a book when someone entered his room. “Good afternoon, President!”

“What’s the matter, William?” Closed the book, then took a document from the drawer.

“I just want to say that some clients have withdrawn their contract cancellation letters. And the number of sales and orders began to return to normal. You can monitor it, and it’s a printed record...?”

William was confused by the boss’s unusual behavior. Immediately put the light brown folder on the table, then noticed the fingers constantly touching the lower lip. His eyes did explore the letters on the paper, but his mind was busy with other things. William understood very well because he had been with the man for a long time.

“What’s the matter with you, President?” he asked.

“Ehem….” Damian settled into a sitting position, crossing his legs and intertwining his fingers.

“William, do you know how to kiss?”

“Yes? HUH?!”
