The Devil JOVE's
119. Zian's Explanation

In the CL Group, Jove is seen smiling thinly while watching the video on the laptop screen. How laughable. It could be that the jaguar sulked after swearing it. Maybe if the one who did this was another woman, Jove would instantly send assassins to wipe her off the face of this earth. But because the one who did was Casandra, his favorite jaguar, he chose to sit back and watch. Good for entertainment.

"Mr Jove, there's Mr. Zian outside" Franklin said. He just came into this room. "Should I bring him in here, sir?"

"Just bring. All right, I want to know what the purpose of coming here is" replied Jove casually. His eyes were still fixed on the laptop screen, busy looking at the woman who was now sitting in her big chair.

"All right then. Excuse me."

Franklin returns to meet Mr. Zian after an order from his boss. With wide strides and a cold facial expression, he walked over to the EH Group owner who was waiting in the company lobby. Franklin deliberately did not let the man go upstairs to give him a reprimand for the conspiracy he tried to commit with Regent, his son Eriko Lin. Lucky that his boss didn't give the order to finish him off, so Franklin was still kind enough to let him keep coming to this company.

Zian who was sitting restlessly stood firm as soon as Franklin arrived. If only anyone realized, now Zian's forehead had begun to appear sweat droplets so nervous he faced the cold-faced man. As a fellow businessman, Zian clearly knew that Franklin was Jove's shadow. Which meant that this man was not someone he could take for granted. Touching him, it was the same as him looking for trouble with Jove.

God, why does it feel like I'm going to face the death penalty. So strapping.

"Mr Jove asked you to come into her room!" said Franklin.

"All right." Zian obeyed. He then gulped as Franklin looked at him very closely. Feeling uncomfortable, she ventured to ask. "Franklin, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me so hard? Is something wrong?"

"much. Even to the point of not being able to mention one by one the mistakes you've made!"

Franklin came closer to the present day, his body aligned with that of Mr. Zian. "I didn't think your guts were big enough either, Mr. Zian. After what you did with Regent, you still dare to show your nose in this company. Thick-faced, eh?"

Zian's hands were clenched tightly. But he tried to refrain from being provoked. Trying to remain calm, Zian responded to Franklin's words by displaying a smile on his lips.

"Between me and Regent there was absolutely no conspiracy going on. Okay I admit it was my folly to delay the signing of the contract at that time by making Omary Group an excuse. But behind it all, I have a good reason to do it. And I ....

"Come in. Mr. Jove doesn't really like to wait for insignificant people like you!"

After cutting off Mr. Zian's words, Franklin walked back to his boss' room. And when they were in the elevator, Franklin just kept quiet and didn't talk. He's lazy to listen to Mr. Zian's reason for protecting Regent. Even though they clearly agreed to dispel the course of Biotechnology project that CL Group wants to develop. Hypocritical.

Elevator door opens. Franklin then allowed Mr. Zian to come out first. Afterwards he showed me where his boss room was.

"You didn't come inside?" zian asked somewhat awkwardly when Franklin asked him to go see Jove alone.

"Fearful?"

"You do what you want to do. I'm just gonna go see Jove myself" said Zian, gloating at the way Franklin mocked him.

"good. Go now because Mr. Jove doesn't like to wait. Come in, wait a minute!"

Zian took a deep breath and then knocked on Jove's door after Franklin left. He then stepped in after getting permission from the owner of the room.

There, in a very luxurious room, sat a cold-faced handsome man in focus staring at the laptop screen. Zian who saw that also felt disinclined. He's afraid to disturb.

"Sit. You're not the kind of kindergarten I should tell you where to sit, are you?" teased Jove without taking her eyes off.

"All right," said Zian, sitting his butt on the couch. He then fell silent, confused to open the conversation from where it used to be.

The tail of Jove's eyes glanced towards Zian who looked puzzled. While grunting quietly, Jove finally left her pleasure and then moved to sit on the sofa. After that Jove sat down while crossing her legs, looking closely at Zian who was instead acting awkward.

"What's up, Zian? Wasn't it when you decided to team up with Regent that you weren't shy about it?" tanya Jove is full of emphasis.

"Mr Jove, I think you've misunderstood my decision. Okay I know my attitude has unintentionally offended you, I admit it. But at that time I really could not attend the signing ceremony with CL Group. And the reason why I got Omary Group involved is because we're partners. Omary Group will be the company that receives the most impact from the cooperation we will do. So I intend to involve Mr. Eriko and Regent's company in order to join our project!" zian replied directly explaining the point of misunderstanding. Although not entirely true, but Zian really hopes Jove will believe it.

"Who do you dare to organize my business, huh? What qualifications do you have so you can freely determine who you want to join?"

Jove's gaze darkened. He then reached out his hand to reach out to something hidden under the glass table of his room. With a faint smile, Jove pulled out a single firearm that she aimed directly at Zian's head.

"We're not that close if you want to know. So I suggest you just step back from this project. I'm not cooperating with an incompetent person like you. And one more. Please cooperate with them at will. As long as it does not intersect with my work, then I will not harass you. But if you cross the line, don't blame me that the EH Group and Omary Group will be flat on the ground. Youunderstand?"

It felt like Zian was moving around when the tip of the gun was pointed at him. With a face already flooded with cold sweat, he finally rushed away leaving Jove's room. Zian still loves life, so he does not care how much loss he has to accept because he was forcibly removed from the biotechnology project made by CL Group.

"K*parat! It's all because of Regent. If only I hadn't been fooled by his persuasion, now I would have lost nothing like this. I need to meet him immediately and hold that bastard accountable. Got to!" zian growled as he walked towards the elevator. And he ignored it when he ran into Franklin. Too upset and lazy to just nod your head.

Knowing what was going on, Franklin just smiled at Mr. Zian's attitude. He casually walked towards his boss room then went inside there.

Want to provoke Mr Jove? Hah, who do you think you are, Mr. Zian. Lucky you can still get out of this room alive after what you've done. Stupid jerk.
