We stepped into the magnificent hall of the five-star hotel, the committee made sure we executives had arrived early 30 minutes before the shareholders' guests arrived.
I joined the other unit team, one table filled with 4 executives and the other 6 seats were for the invitation to shareholders. So we had a chance to chat with our colleagues before our guests came.
“Simon Isaac, Vincent I remember you had a problem with him.” Another director, dr. Hansen made me look at them.
“Problems? What kind of problems?” I asked directly. So Vincent knew Simon.
“Hmm... two years ago when I first took the position of Director, I kicked him off the list of suppliers and banned all his sales from going to the hospital for a gross violation of the drug content agreement on all their products, I heard then the chain effect resulted in several large hospitals and other large retailers kicking it as well. Now it seems that he is seeking a comeback by entering as a shareholder. Because if we manage to enter our group as a supplier again, it will be like a quality assurance license that is recognized by other hospital networks.” Ohhh so, I was wondering why suddenly the transaction with Simon's company dropped dramatically two years ago, I knew there was some kind of supplier change, but I don't know what caused it.
“You're right it seems that he wants to come back, but I think with the rules now if he wants to go back he can't mess around anymore cheating. We have set a new standard of feasibility test, no one can mess with compromise the levels of their production drugs.” Hansen answered Vincent.
"Right, once again he's caught cheating, I'm banning him forever."
“Why didn't you tell me?” I whispered to him.
“Not an important thing to tell. The dispute was a long time ago, if he wanted to get a comeback he should also be fine with me. He wouldn't dare mess with me. and you.” I think I really do have a US card now.
“For a while don't show we have a relationship.”
“Oke.” Vincent agreed to my request.
Shortly thereafter the shareholders began arriving at the event site. Finally when I waited, I saw him, this time with a beautiful woman, Kinyis.kinyis, maybe his age is still around 25-30, I'm not sure it's his wife.
We stared for a moment, his ripples flat as usual. He is the same age as Vincent now, still at his prime age of course. Was he not tired of facing those young girls. Or maybe he treated her as his ego's contentment. The beautiful girl clung to him like a leech, her gaze adoring the man.
"Sir Vincent. It's good to see you back." He touched Vincent first, then Mr. Hansen, Lucas who was also a team and finally me.
"Mrs Melisa." She smiled at me a little.
"Simon sir." I returned his smile with confidence.
"Let's sit down..." Vincent puts her aside to sit next to him, after he gets acquainted with the other guests at his desk. She was the last guest we were waiting for, while I sat down next to the other guests.
I took on the task of handling the conversation with one of the shareholders beside me, who just happened to be an investment analyst at a Singaporean financial firm, I can explain a lot more to him about business aspects in common language when the annual report is presented by the Group's Finance Director.
And Vincent is sitting next to Simon in charge of guiding Simon.
"Ohhh really... Meaning how?"
"He ..." He whispered to Vincent. I wonder what he whispered to Vincent.
"Ohh so." Vincent didn't repeat his words and made me even more curious. "It's very interesting, and next to you this is your wife."
"You don't know him, he's a rising singer Lola. I financed all the album promotions. He is busy appearing on television. Not my wife, my wife is home, she's my boyfriend..." Apparently he was married again and looking for another young leaf is indeed his heavy hobby.
"Ohh Mr. Simon, you're very good at finding beautiful lovers." Vincent praises or laughs at him I'm not sure.
"I can introduce you to many of her model friends. They're all very pretty, guaranteed they're also very good at fun..."
Vincent just laughed and nodded. Then I didn't pay any more attention because I was focusing on my own guests and Vincent was talking to him.
The event passed quickly, the dinner was finally over, tomorrow they were still invited to the cocktail party. Today is actually a business dinner while tomorrow night is a real cocktail party, a lot of entertainment tomorrow night, from entertainment as well as the Capital artist. While I can't wait to hear what he said to Vincent.
We all took our guests as party hosts. She came to me alone in the still bustling dinner area to talk when I finished delivering her own tamulu, looking at me with a smile but her eyes were still full of hatred.
"You look tired Melisa, whether work makes you lose your former beauty. Don't get too serious about work, have a little fun, or you need me to send you your month-to-month which you reject with such arrogance. Your father's dead, isn't he..." I saw it with my own smile.
"Unfortunately I don't need your mercy at all. You are the one who needs my mercy. You can't forget me until now apparently? You deliberately asked to sit down with me ... Are you hoping maybe I'll come back to you" I chuckled. "Why? Your woman is all too obedient to you? Even your stupid wife is also very obedient as it seems, Eww is boring... Simon, you know ever since I decided to leave you, not a second did I regret it, and you were wrong, money can't buy me. .you can never buy me."
"You see how I can make you without a job because of your incredible arrogance. You think I'm here for you?" He spoke with a smile. This cunning bastard, he thought everyone would bow to his money.
"Ohhh really? I'm waiting, just try if you can, but if you don't, shut up and go back into your adoring woman's arms and cry. Overcome one woman only you can't afford Mr. Simon... Embarrassment." I smiled broadly, while she pursed her lips.
"There's a time when you're gonna beg me."
"I think you're just the crap Simon used to be. You're very disappointing..."
I left him with a triumphant laugh. I'm content. Now I wonder what he said to Vincent.
