All Chapters of The CEO's Rebellious Woman: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

“Yes. He was the son of Chairman Yang, the founder of The Elysian Inc,” Evina said with pride, but with a tinge of concern in her tone. After the series of unfortunate events that she had encountered, she felt that she had finally found a nesting place. She could finally earn real money and start her own business while helping her sister’s family live comfortably. Working as an executive assistant to the CEO made her feel elated, somehow. But it seemed that it was not the case for her older sister. Her lips went pale as she mentioned the name of the company as if it was cursed and was not worth mentioning. But it was only obvious to her. Maria quickly bit her pallid lips, making blood flow back to them again. “It was nice meeting you, sir. Maybe we should get going now. There’s a huge traffic jam and my son is waiting for me,” Maria stood up. She responded quickly as if she wanted to get out as soon as possible. Evina’s eyebrows furrowed as sh

Gabriel found his reaction towards Evina weird. How could he think about an indecent scene while working? He would understand if they were outside the office. But it was his first time to get distracted from his enthusiasm for his job.With Evina’s effect on her, he decided to meet with their client at another district without her. Or he might get distracted again.However, he felt like he made a mistake as he wanted to be with her during that moment. He glanced behind and checked if they were already far from The Elysian Inc.“Did you leave something, boss?” Paul asked him as he saw his agitated state in the rearview mirror.“Uh yeah, I think Miss Chen should be with us, so she could be familiar with the industry,” Gabriel explained.Paul’s lips tightened to suppress them from letting out a snicker. It was his first time to see his boss concerned with a woman. He has not offered help to any woman before. Nor off

The next day, Gabriel was excited to go to work. He was used to battling heads with the other executives that were leading the nation’s economic growth alone. Yesterday seems to be a different case. Gabriel was whistling as he recalled how Evina stepped up to lift The Elysian Inc in the pedestal while the bosses were singing praises to their archenemy. Because of her excellent relationship skills, they seemed to change their course from steering towards the Ming’s Group to The Elysian. It was beneficial because the current flowed to the actual meeting, where the Director that leads Gentech ear wigged on how exceptional the Elysian Inc is. They already have an inkling that they would make a wise investment if they would pick their company. He also remembered how she said that he was her precious gem, and it was not him who found her, but the other way around. It sounded cliché, but it somehow made his lips twitch. Gabriel’s grin turned to a huge smile

For one week, Gabriel and Evina worked on creating a proposal that was cheaper and more profitable compared to the Ming’s Group. Evina suggested ways to make it according to her perceived character and motivation of Mr. Zheng, the owner of Gentech Project.On the other hand, Gabriel worked on cutting the expenses and improvising other resources to make the plan more cost-friendly than before. As they collaborated, they stayed up late at night at the office. They even used the weekends too.As they did so, they started getting to know each other, their likes and dislikes, what makes them happy or sad. Gabriel started to have a cheerful demeanor and be expressive with his true emotions. At the same time, Evina began to listen and submit to someone in authority above her.“You’re right. I will revise it again, sir. Just give me a few minutes,” Evina nodded after she listened to Gabriel’s suggestions.“I can do this. It&rsq

Julio was grinning from ear to ear as they awaited Mr. Zheng’s response. He and the other executives were already at the boardroom, including Gabriel and Evina. All of them were excited to know who won the much prized project.With his scheme, Julio was confident that the Ming’s Group would win the bid. He was a little surprise that Evina was still working for Gabriel. He knew Gabriel was smart enough to know about what he did. Julio rubbed his chin as he stared at the two. Gabriel was just chatting with the other executives. Evina, on the other hand, had her arms crossed while glaring at him.“Good day, gentlemen! I’m now ready to announce the company that we would be working with,” Mr. Zheng greeted them, distracting Julio from his observation.“If it’s not us, I’m sure it’s either the Ming’s or The Elysian’s,” he overheard them talking. The others were also stating their own bet for the w
