Made a victim

Bab4

"Sir, the Tones enterprise is in a state of crisis. They are begging for help."

"I don't care and don't help them!" Jeremy said, staring at his monitor.

Debara Hwang nodded obediently.

_______

At the Tones company. Mike Tones, calling for Esmeralda, came into his study.

"I didn't do that!" Esmeralda replied, as Mike accused her of a sinister conspiracy.

"Don't lie, Esmeralda. If you can't wait anymore, then Grandpa won't hesitate to make you homeless." 

Tears rolled freely, on Esmeralda's face, why her grandfather always seemed to hate her and her family so much. 

"You have to help the company!" press Mike Tones. 

Esmeralda was still silent.

"Come to the Giant Company Group company. And, get a cooperation contract with them. So that, our company, get out of this crisis period."

"Why me? Isn't there Khan, Albert. This despicable cleaning service, it can't be sent to that big company, does grandpa really want to embarrass me?" 

"I don't accept rejection! You understand?" snapped Mike Tones. 

The old man had his back to Esmeralda.

"If you need to kneel down and beg the higher-ups of the company."

 Esmeralda's heart ached even more. All is not his fault, but why is he the accused. Everything is not his responsibility, but why should he take care of it.

His grandfather was increasingly showing his disapproval. If it weren't for being the backbone, maybe Esmeralda wouldn't want to be in the Tones enterprise anymore.

 The hurt and humiliation they continued to throw at them was already too tight in the young woman's heart.

Jeremy comes home, riding his old motorbike. Esmeralda was waiting for him at the door of the house.

"From where?" asked Esmeralda.

"Work, helping a friend deliver the merchandise," Jeremy lied.

The man took out his pocket money. Which amounted to $10, to his wife.

"That's from my friend, sorry just a little."

Esmeralda greeted him happily. "Thank you, this is your first money. I'm very grateful," said Esmeralda happily.

Jeremy also gave a smile.

The two of them entered, and Esmeralda began to recount today's events at her company.

"Why should you?"

"It seems, Khan slandered me."

Esmeralda sighed. "Grandfather didn't believe me. I was forced by them to clean up what I didn't do."

Jeremy was getting angrier, but he couldn't have acted rashly either.

"Just follow them," he said.

"Why? Then they'll just be nicer to me."

"Just go with it, you believe me right?" Jeremy asked, smiling mischievously at his wife.

Esmeralda nodded. His strength has always been in this sharp-nosed man in front of him.

Esmeralda took a taxi to the tall skyscraper.

With nervous steps, Esmeralda, entered the Giant Company Group building, carrying the agreement file.

The atmosphere of the building was designed very luxuriously, making Esmeralda chuckle many times in awe to see it. This was the first time, he took a step into the tallest and largest building in this Monarch city.

Esmeralda walked over to the reception desk. Esmeralda's arrival was warmly welcomed by one of the receptionists.

"Excuse me, may I see Miss Hwang?"

"Miss Hwang is in a meeting this morning, have you made an appointment?" asked the short-haired receptionist.

"Yes, I'm from Tones enterprise, my company has an appointment at 10.30."

The blonde-haired receptionist glanced at her watch, while scanning Esmeralda's unkempt appearance in her eyes.

"Are you sure you're from Tones enterprise?" asked the blonde haired woman in a bun, with a disdainful look.

"Yeah that's right, what's wrong?" Esmeralda was confused, getting such stares and questions.

"Tones enterprise advanced company number 4 in this city. How is it possible, sending a person who looks so simple like this," the woman sneered boldly.

Esmeralda felt embarrassed and hurt. But in reality, he was indeed very modest in appearance, and didn't look attractive at all.

It's been a few months, he can no longer afford to buy new and fresher office clothes. Because they have to continue to pay off their mother's debt, who loves to gamble.

"It's okay, the important thing is tidy." The graceful woman beside him intervened.

"It's neat, if he's really here to apply for a job as a janitor. He's here to meet our big boss," said the blonde woman.

"Alright, let it be this lady's business." The woman with short black hair began to get annoyed with the friend beside her.

"Miss, please wait at that place, I will call Ms. Hwang first!" he said. "As soon as I can, I'll tell you."

Esmeralda forced a smile, and walked over to the waiting chair. He had mixed feelings and felt more and more insecure.

In his office, Jeremy Mose, monitors his wife from a laptop, via CCTV. His chest rumbled violently, seeing his lowly employee, how dare he insult his beloved wife.

Jeremy Mose contacted Miss Debara Hwang. "Hello sir," replied Miss Hwang, who was still in a meeting with his subordinates.

Meanwhile, Jeremy never wanted to show himself, only gave up his trust in Debara Hwang.

"Are you done?"

"Yes, any work?"

"Someone I mean has arrived, ask your men to pick him up."

"Okay, leave it to me," concluded Debara Hwang.

The woman sighed. "Okay, friends, today's meeting is over, I have an important guest. I hope you understand today's discussion."

"Okay ma'am." The team in the room answered in unison.

"You!" point to Debara Hwang. "Pick my guest in front of the waiting room, take him to my room," Debara Hwang ordered one of her coworkers.

"Ready."

"Her name is Esmeralda Tones, from the Tones enterprise company," explained Debara Hwang before leaving the meeting room.

________

"The Tones enterprise has such shabby employees," the blonde woman hissed, giving Esmeralda an occasional disdainful glance.

Esmeralda knew that she was being watched with scornful eyes. But he tried not to care, and he didn't want to know either.

"Miss Tones," someone called out, causing Esmeralda Tones to turn her head, as did the two receptionists.

"Miss Tones," whispered the short-haired woman, to the friend next to her.

"You haven't contacted Ms. Hwang, how can she come to pick up the woman."

The short-haired woman glanced at the clock. "It's only 10:10. I think Ms. Hwang is still in a meeting."

The short-haired woman began to feel uncomfortable. "If Bu Hwang finds out, we'll both be finished," the woman mumbled.

The blonde haired woman chuckled. "Don't worry, if Mrs. Hwang sees that woman, I'm sure she will immediately be expelled," said the woman, full of confidence.

Esmeralda Tones walked nervously, following in the footsteps of the man behind her. Until they stood, in front of the Director's room.

The temperature of the woman's body was cold now, when the door to the deputy director's room opened. A woman is well-dressed, fashionable and very visible, every inch she uses, all expensive branded goods.

Esmeralda Tones swallowed her saliva, and smiled faintly, as Debara Hwang's eyes met hers.

"Come in, Miss Tones," said Debara Hwang with a friendly intonation, but seemed firm.

Esmeralda Tones nodded slightly, and walked slowly towards the chair. At the front, Debara Hwang stood up, and invited Esmeralda Tones to sit down.

Esmeralda Tones began to explain the purpose of her arrival.

"What?" Esmeralda was surprised, when she heard Debara Hwang's answer.

"What's wrong? Do you mind?" asked Debara Hwang firmly.

"Ah, pardon my attitude, Miss Hwang. Honestly, I was very surprised by your answer."

"So?" Debara Hwang glared at Esmeralda Tones.

"Excuse me, can you give me a reason, why should I be in charge of the running of this agreement project?"

Debara Hwang smiled faintly. "I've never made agreements, with people I don't trust. If you object to my terms, then forget about this agreement."

Esmeralda held back her saliva, and was confused by all of this.

"Miss Hwang...." Esmeralda Tones looked at the woman in front of her doubtfully.

"Answer! Or I won't sign this." Debara Hwang said firmly, forcing Esmeralda Tones to finally agree to the requirement.

After the autographs were finished, Esmeralda Tones came out.

"How?" Jeremy Mose sent a message to Debara Hwang's cell phone.

"All right, sir."

"Ask him to my room!"

"Yes sir, just now he went to your room with the general staff."

There was a knock on the door, Jeremy Mose cracked a smile.

"Go in!" the man said as he sat down in his chair. The handsome man turned his back on Esmeralda's arrival in his room.

"What do you need?" asked Jeremy, in a voice he had grown slightly louder, after the door to the room was closed again. 

The man asked, still with his back to Esmeralda Tones. "Excuse me, sir. I came here to ask for your autograph," said Esmeralda quietly.

 "Hmmm."

 "Excuse me, sir. I, Esmeralda, are from the Tones enterprise."

 "Oh."

 

Esmeralda frowned, getting such an answer.

 "What will you give me, if I sign that?" 

"Hah?" Esmeralda grew even more astonished and confused.

 "I heard, the Tones family named Esmeralda, is the most beautiful woman in the city of the Monarchs." Esmeralda was silent, and thought this person in front of her was rude.

 Because, talking with his back to him. "Would you please, give me one night?" 

"Excuse me sir, I think you have the wrong person." 

Esmeralda intended to leave the room. 

"Wait!" Esmeralda stopped in her tracks. 

"Are you sure you're doing this? Your family company, is in serious trouble." 

"I believe, and I will not regret this decision. I am a married woman, and I will not sell my marriage, for the sake of this damn contract," snapped Esmeralda Tones boldly. Jeremy smiled.

 "How great is your husband? That you are so brave, rejecting someone like me," Jeremy prodded. 

Esmeralda was getting annoyed. 

"My husband is an ordinary person. But I love him, in an extraordinary way." Jeremy smiled even more, he was sure, his wife was a loyal woman. Jeremy turned around, much to Esmeralda's surprise.

 "You, what is the meaning of all this?" Esmeralda shouted, increasingly annoyed.

Esmeralda frowned, getting such an answer.

"What will you give me, if I sign that?"

"Hah?" Esmeralda grew even more astonished and confused.

"I heard, the Tones family named Esmeralda, is the most beautiful woman in the city of the Monarchs."

Esmeralda was silent, and thought this person in front of her was rude. Because, talking with his back to him.

"Would you please, give me one night?"

"Wait!"

Esmeralda stopped in her tracks.

"Are you sure you're doing this? Your family company, is in serious trouble."

"I believe, and I will not regret this decision. I am a married woman, and I will not sell my marriage, for the sake of this damn contract," snapped Esmeralda Tones boldly.

Jeremy smiled.

Esmeralda was getting annoyed.

"My husband is an ordinary person. But I love him, in an extraordinary way."

Jeremy smiled even more, he was sure, his wife was a loyal woman.

Jeremy turned around, much to Esmeralda's surprise.

"You, what is the meaning of all this?" Esmeralda shouted, increasingly annoyed.
