Chapter 5: Another Facade

Normal P.O.V.

“I’ll have to appoint a meeting with your father about this matter. I shall leave you now to your own agendas.” Samuel gave a small wave and stood up, turning on his heels to make his way back in his mansion. With of course, Jarred following suit.

Although the CEO has left. It now leaves to the two females left in the garden tea table. Cassandra was seen with fury in her eyes from the male’s actions. But was only given amusement to the other.

Denise merely took a sip of her tea and gracefully set it down on the glass tea table.

“I recognize you at some point. Cassandra Rose Villanueva, am I correct? The fallen daughter of Haiting Design Corp? My supposedly opponent in the designing industry? I never would have guessed that you would stoop as low. Seems like the higher you soar. The harder you fall. Don’t you think so too?” A slight snicker was plastered on her face. Cassandra froze in her movements. A feeling of insecurity waved over every inch of her skin. She could feel the hair on the back of her neck stood upright.

“S… So what? Are you here to brag about it?” She stated plainly, as if her words were the breeze that past by after brushing against her shoulder. The action made the other female more amused.

Though the act of disrespect was lingering all over Cassandra. The heavy atmosphere led to a short grieving silence. That was solely enough for the other female to stand up abruptly. Anger replaced her once pure expression before shoving the maid down and pulling her up by the hair. Cassandra could only girth her teeth in pain, but her angered expression took place. She wasn’t afraid of her, neither would she let anyone trample over her.

“Remember your place, rat. You should be lucky that my Sammy took you in. Who would want to take in such a nuisance like you? Don’t even think about defying me. Perhaps you are just like those other woman, seducing men to climb their way up the social ladder? Don’t make me laugh Cassandra. As long as I’m here. You will respect me, cover below me, and serve me. When I become Sammy’s dear wife. I won’t let you go unharmed.” She then pulled on the maid’s auburn hair harder before throwing her down in the open field. A satisfied smile spreads its way onto her peachy snow-white skin whilst the enraged maid merely scowled at her direction for being knocked off her feet.

Cassandra could only show her vivid scowl. Like hell she’ll let people show her the meaning of hell before she personally takes them a trip there herself.

Denise, being satisfied of her work, turned to leave. Yet before she could be a foot away. Cassandra got back on her feet, a vivid laugh escaping her thin lips. Which made the other female stop dead in tracks and turned around to glance at the disheveled maid.

“How dare you laugh at me? I am Sammy’s fiancé! One word is all it takes and you will lose your pathetic job! You better know your place, a lowly servant.” She threatened, but it left Cassandra unfazed. She girthed her teeth in slight annoyance and clenched her fists, you could visibly see it trembling from the pressure.

“Do you really think I’d beg for that asshole’s sympathy for this crappy job? How shallow is your brain? Do you really think that he’s into you? Puh-lease, Open your eyes. Do you really think you even deserve him?” Although she’s plainly taunting the other female. She felt as if she had the wanting to sink the obvious truth onto the blonde’s thick skull. Now it was Denise’s turn to scowl at the direction while a smug smile formed onto the disheveled maid’s face. Feeling the reign of having the upper hand. She was a pro in pissing someone off. And her oh-so-lucky victim turned out to be an ambitious heiress.

“If I were you. I’d stop picking on someone who you can’t even reach, and push my petty little ass to prince charming. That is, if you can.” With a snicker. The disheveled maid turned to leave the furious blondie. She doesn’t care, in fact. She won’t let just ‘anyone’ bully her regardless of their status compared to hers. Yet turning the table is one of her specialties.

Call her ruthless or even uncultured as a supposedly heiress of Haiting Design Corp. The only reason why Denise tried going against her is because of the fashion show 10 years ago. When Haiting Design Corp. stole the limelight from YingYang Design Corp. and achieved the number 1 global brand in the summer edition. Ever since that year. YingYang Design Corp. Has been on hot pursuit to overtake the Haiting Design Corp.’s ratings. Yet now that Haiting Design Corp. Fell onto the brick of bankruptcy. Denise felt the reign of pure victory to trample over its only heiress.

Cassandra made her way to her dormitory. Which is in the South wing where all servants reside. Though her room isn’t much to look at. It’s at least decent in her opinion.

With that said and done. Cassandra went to change her uniform and fix her disheveled hair. Cleaning the grass and dirt from it, but the filth wasn’t enough to gain the need of taking a bath. Thus, she only needed was to clean disheveled hair into a nice ponytail and get another set of uniform. Every maid is provided with at least 5 set of uniforms. Then they clean it themselves. Which wasn’t nice news to Cassandra. Yet she has to put up with it, unless she wants to wonder on the streets just to look for a new job.

“I’m looking forward for our new collaborating project, Mr. Dencio. May our project be a success.” Samuel shook hands with Mr. Javier. Denise’s Father and current CEO of YingYang Design Corp. They are now currently on the CEO’s office in Japan Electron-Innovations Corporation main building.

“Likewise. My mother would most likely hold a banquet to celebrate the collaboration. Perhaps. You could give Denise a chance for her to be your partner? You know, she has been your childhood friend ever since. She always adores you.” The aged man reasoned. Yet as a response he gained was a slight shake of the young CEO’s head.

“If I were to decide. I feel that it’s unnecessary to tag females along, but it that’s what Mother requests. Then so be it.” Samuel gave out a sigh, he knew that whenever there are banquets which he is required to attend. They will make him take Denise along as his partner for the night. He dislikes the thought since he only her as nothing but a little sister. His patience could only hold on for her sake.

“I’m pleased to hear so.” The man then turned to leave to compromise his other agendas, leaving for the young CEO to let out a sigh of frustration before returning to his own matters.
