My Cold Boss
Chapter 29 - Promotion - One Night With Investors

CHAPTER 1

Crings ...! crings ...!

The ringing of the phone interrupted Lea's sense of hearing that was still curled up behind a thick blanket of white.

"Ck, who the hell is calling this early in the morning? Disturb people's sleep." Because he was still very sleepy plus his head that did feel a bit dizzy, Lea also chose to cover his ears with a pillow, but because the phone did not stop ringing, Lea also chose to cover her ears with a pillow, inevitably, he had to lift it up.

"Hello." Lea answered the phone call with her eyes still closed.

"Good morning, Miss. Sorry to interrupt, Mr. L asked us to wake you up at eight in the morning" said a woman on the other end.

"What's? Sir L? Who's Mr L?" lea asked somewhat confusedly, the feeling she had no acquaintance with the name.

"Yes, Miss. Mr. Emmanuel, who came to our hotel last night with you," replied a woman who could be assured that she was a hotel receptionist.

Hearing the receptionist's words, Lea's eyes opened wide. His sleepiness disappeared immediately. Quickly putting the phone back in place, Lea no longer wanted to hear any further explanation from the receptionist.

After circulating his gaze around the room, Lea realized that she was in a hotel room. Plus all his clothes are good outside and in everything is scattered on the floor. She just remembered, if last night she went to a club alone for drinks, her intention wanted to eliminate the sadness of wanting to forget the betrayal of her former husband, who was a potential husband, but it seems like Lea is creating new problems for herself.

The 28-year-old woman immediately dropped herself back on the bed and covered her body with a blanket. "Si al's. Did I just spend my night with a stranger?"

Lea tried to remember the events of last night, and her memory was immediately twisted on the incident yesterday afternoon, when her best friend showed her a photo of an affair fiance who will marry her in 3 months. Feeling very sad and heartbroken, he decided to drink to forget the pain that tore his heart and and and his feelings.

"Oh my God .. What have I done? I condemn the actions of Daniel who betrayed me by sleeping with another woman, am I not now as disgusting as he is." Lea covered her face using both of her hands out of embarrassment to herself. It was recorded clearly in his memory that last night while he was drunk, he hired someone to sleep with him. Absolutely disgraceful!

Lea's chaos of thought instantly collapsed as her phone suddenly rang.

"Where's my phone?" Lea grabbed the white blanket that covered her entire body, then immediately got off the bed to look for the flat object that was ringing. The phone is still in the bag.

"Hello."

"Bu Lea, where are you? In half an hour we will have an important meeting with the investors. You didn't forget, did you?" ask his superior secretary.

'Good!' Lea rounded her eyes in surprise. He was this really careless, how could he possibly forget such an important thing. If he misses this good opportunity, maybe soon the company he works for will soon be out of business due to bankruptcy. Some time ago the company experienced problems that caused many losses, and now the company is in need of a large injection of funds. If this one is missed then Lea cannot imagine what will happen in the future.

"Ah, i-yes. I'll be there soon." Lea quickly disconnected the phone, picked up all her clothes and went into the bathroom to get ready.

Lea rushed out of the elevator, before leaving the hotel, she had to check out first.

"Sorry, Miss, Mr. L has already paid the rent for his room" replied the receptionist on duty.

"What's? Already paid?" Hearing the name of the man she slept with last night made Lea a little misbehaved.

"Yes, Miss, it's been paid" replied the receptionist. "Oh yes, Miss, Mr. L leave breakfast for you. Don't forget to eat it he said, and also don't forget to read the message from him." The receptionist smiled as she handed Lea a small paper bag.

"Ah, yes. Thank you." Thank you." Lea forced herself to smile as she accepted the gift. The woman immediately walked out of the hotel to wait for a taxi.

.

.

"Hey, who is this? Did I not see wrong?" The man stared at Lea's appearance from top to bottom, it seemed that the woman's appearance was different this morning. He was still wearing the same clothes he had worn yesterday. "Supervisor Lea, have you now stopped looking after your appearance because your relationship with the son of the wealthy conglomerate has run aground?" asked the man in a mocking tone.

Lea took a deep breath. At first he didn't want to make Ben's point because he knew exactly that the man had been hostile to him for a long time, but if he had stayed silent, Ben would have made fun of him again tomorrow when he had the chance.

Lea and Ben served as Marketing Supervisors at the Jaya Sentosa company where they worked. In terms of achieving the company's sales targets, the first division led by Lea has always been well above the second division led by Ben. That's what makes Ben envious and hostile to Lea with his team.

"Honored supervisor Ben, stop taking care of other people's personal affairs. Just think about how to develop and execute a sales strategy so that your second division can rival our first division. Also, do not forget to guide your team members to market the product well, otherwise, our first division will definitely take back your second division's latest project because the boss thinks your team is not good at work. Excuse me."

Ting.

The elevator doors opened along with Lea's words. The woman threw a mocking smile at Ben as she exited the elevator.

"Si al's. Just watch out for you." Ben was getting inflamed hearing Lea's taunts. His intention to laugh over the suffering of the woman was precisely Lea instead attacked him in a landslide.

Lea put the bag along with the breakfast menu that she had not had time to eat on the street on her desk. His memory instantly returned to the figure of the handsome man he had slept with last night.

'Is the man with me until morning?' Inner Lea while staring at the breakfast menu box.

'Been already. Think of it as just a dream that never happened in the real world. Hopefully me and that person will never see each other again.' Inner Lea was hopeful. He just didn't want any new problems in his life.

"Mom Lea." A woman's voice suddenly startled Lea and made her turn.

"Eh, Win, what's up?" ask Lea, to one of her subordinates or team members.

"Director Hans called Bu Lea into his room" replied Vienna, the girl who looked younger than Lea.

"Ah, yes. Thank you, Vienna."

"Together, Mom."

Lea hurried to walk into the room of the superior. Arriving there, a middle-aged man was seen sitting on his seat of greatness.

"Good morning, sir," Lea said politely.

"Hem, morning. Supervisor Lea, have you found any new evidence of the distribution of counterfeit cosmetic products that vilify our company name?"

"Already, Sir. Our first division has handled the matter well. The content creators who previously spread false news that our company markets cosmetic products that do not pass the BPOM test have classified and apologized to our company through its content, and the content has been watched by more than 1 million people in 2 days. And also, he admitted that he vilified our company name and brand because he was paid by Xx who are our rivals in the market."

Director Hans smiled. "good job. You and your team have always been reliable, Supervisor Lea."

Lea, Ben, Director Hans, and Secretary Director are standing in front of the 11th floor elevator. They all stand there because they want to welcome the arrival of investors who will give an injection of funds to their companies.

Not long after the elevator door finally opened, revealing 2 men and one woman in it.

"Congratulations dat-" Lea's mouth was instantly silent as she looked at the familiar figure of the man in her eyes.

'Gosh. Her. Did I not see wrong?'
