Everyone was shocked at her ambitions.
They had always known how ambitious she was, but they felt that that was on another level.
“What if you don’t get it?” Mr Clark asked as he wanted to make things for Rhiannon when he remembered what she had done to him.
Rhiannon was displeased when she heard his questions while the others curiously looked at the two.
“What does this have to do with this? For as long as I can remember, I have been trying and won’t be using any money for what I will be doing until we get their attention. If you think that I will be giving you a chance to make fun of me then you are mistaken!” Rhiannon said coldly as she glanced at the latter.
“You! Is this the way you speak to your father?” Mr Clark asked angrily.
“The same question all over again. Can’t you ever ask something else? I am getting tired hearing it every time,” Rhiannon said causing the man to be angrier.
“I think what Rhiannon has said is true. She will be trying, if she manages then we will get into the jewel production successfully, if she doesn’t, we will have seen her ambitions and witnessed that she had tried to move the company to another level,” one of the shareholders said causing the others to nod their heads.
Even those who always supported Mr Clark agreed with the latter as what he had said was just pure truth.
They didn’t see any reason to plan Rhiannon.
She had already gotten a restaurant for the company, what more can they say? Also, she was the president and they were all aware of the potential she carried. Seeing her working so hard to take the company to another level, they were proud to be led by her even though they were all old men and women.
“Are you all going to support her actions?” Mr Clark asked with a frown as he looked around the room.
They all ignored him and turned to Rhiannon to see what she had to say. What her other plans were.
“Rhiannon, are you planning anything else?” A woman asked in curiosity.
“Yes, I have discovered that some money has been embezzled, I am planning on changing the manager and his assistant in that department till investigations are done,” Rhiannon said as she glanced at each other waiting to see those who would panic.
As expected, some of them panicked at her words causing her to smirk secretly.
She didn’t have any ideas of who she should investigate but now, she had an idea of who they were and what was going on.
“What? Rhiannon, do you know that such an accusation led you to be sued? Also, this can lead to the company’s stocks falling,” Mr Clark said in a despised tone.
“Dad, are you trying to support those who have been stealing the company’s money? Or have you also taken some money or worked with them?” Rhiannon asked as she raised her eyebrows innocently.
“Rhiannon! Don’t dare push your luck just because you now have some bodyguards protecting you 24/7! I am sure if I offer them more money than you pay them, they will be willing to jump to my side,” Mr Clark said coldly but Rhiannon chuckled upon hearing his words.
“I have no problem with that,” Rhiannon said shocking everyone.
They had all witnessed how strong the men were and were very envious of Rhiannon. They wished that they could have such bodyguards on their sides as everyone would be afraid of them.
“Are you sure?” Mr Clark asked his eyes shining in surprise as he didn’t see the need to mask it making Rhiannon nod her head.
“Rhiannon, you can’t blame me then since it seems that you are so willful and at the same time don’t appreciate them. And seems that the case, I will be more than willing to pay them just some extra cash for them to work for me,” Mr Clark said.
Rhiannon didn’t say anything to his words. She only had a mocking smile on her face.
Although she didn’t know how much the bodyguards were paid by Octavius, she was sure that it was quite an astonishing amount thus she wasn’t worried whether she would lose them.
“Hei you! Do you think that you can come to work for me if I pay you a million a month?” Mr Clark said in a very confident tone.
His bodyguards were paid less than that amount and didn’t feel as if he was losing money as he offered them that kind of amount. Also, he thought that they were poor and that’s why they were willing to work for Rhiannon even though she lacked money.
The bodyguards behind Rhiannon pretended not to hear him causing the man to be dissatisfied with them.
“Hei you! I am asking you a question,” He asked angrily but he still didn’t receive anything.
They had been trained only to talk when speaking to their masters, bosses, or when they had permission to speak thus for Mr Clark to keep bombarding them with questions, they still maintained the stoic yet cold expression pretending that he wasn’t talking to them.
“Rhiannon, are your bodyguards dumb as they aren’t answering anything?” he asked as he pointed at the men.
“Mr Clark, you better watch your tone,” Rhiannon said coldly and a warning in her tone.
Mr Clark didn’t refute as he convinced himself that after he got the bodyguards at his side, he would ask Rhiannon to pay for all the shame and humiliation she had caused him.
“You can answer his questions,” Rhiannon said when she saw his look.
As his daughter, how could she not know what he was thinking about?
And how could she let him get what he wanted?
“Yes madam,” they answered as they looked at Mr Clark waiting for his questions.
Immediately Mr Clark met their eyes, he was stunned and at the same time felt at a loss as he wondered why they seemed so intimidating. He even forgot what he wanted to ask.
“Mr Clark, kindly do what you want to do so that we can continue with today’s agenda,” one of the shareholders said in a displeased tone as he didn’t appreciate how the latter kept on making things for Rhiannon.
He even wondered whether the latter knew that in the company and office, his daughter was his superior and he should talk to him with respect.
Mr Clark shot him a disdainful glance as he felt that the latter wasn’t worthy of being in the same room as he, dining at the same time, or worthy of reprimanding him before shifting his focus on the bodyguards once more.
“Hei, I was asking a question. Can you work for me? I will be giving you a million a month,” he said once more.
The bodyguards frowned upon his words before disgust fell in their eyes.
“I am sorry sir but am afraid that I can’t.”
One of them said as he tried to polite as possible.
“Why can’t you work for me? Don’t be afraid of her, I will be able to protect you from her,” Mr Clark said shamelessly as there was no way he was going to miss such an opportunity.
The bodyguard remained silent as they pretended once more.
He kept raising the amount by 10 thousand but they kept rejecting his offer making him displeased.
“Tell! How much does she pay you for you to refuse to work for me despite the benefits that I am giving you!” he said.
Everyone including Rhiannon was displeased.
She turned to look at the bodyguards and found them staring at her.
“tell him how much you are paid so that he can give up.”
“Okay. Sir, our boss gives us 20 million in a year and bought each of us apartments.”
