Master's Untamed Wife

"These past couple of years their company hadn't been doing operating successfully." Raelle was having a video conference, listening to the report of the employees from Country G. The representative continued to speak, "Their company had invested in a second-tier city where the property market has become saturated. Their new investment failed and it has cost them a lot, they might even have to break the revenue chain."

"Are you suggested that we shouldn't co-operate with them?" asked Raelle while her eyes didn't even lift from the file in her hand.

"Actually, I believe we should. Although they are in this predicament, I still believe in their CEO. He is a capable man," said the employee who was giving the report.

"If he is a capable man, how did he reach to such a state?" she retorted straightforwardly.

"His luck didn't work in his favor this time," was the employee's reply which made everyone else in the conference room gasp out.

Raelle's eyes lifted languidly and her gaze met with the person who had been giving the report through the screen. The person froze instantly and his breath hitched.

"Tell me, Mr. Bannett, is your luck on your side today?"

Hearing Raelle's question, no one even dared to breathe loudly. Even though she was thousands of miles away from them, they couldn't help feeling like her eminence was pressing down on them at this moment.

In this silence, the sound of the door opening was heard even clearer. They all shook when the door was slammed. It shocked them since the sound came from Raelle's side and she didn't even flinch. Neither did her eyes moved away to even see who had entered her office. And that too in such a tyrannical manner.

They saw a young man walking behind the couch where Raelle was sitting. The young man took off his jacket and threw it at her. It fell on her head and she simply pushed it away. Later the young man took off his cap and the mask he was wearing as his voice as clear as water rang out, "Do you have something to eat?"

To their surprise, Raelle lifted her hand and pointed at something and the young man finally moved out of their line of sight. However, this kind of scene left them baffled beyond belief. Someone was actually not afraid of death before Raelle Xiang, which came as a huge shock to the people who had been working with her for years now.

"President Raelle," called out a senior manager. "Shall we continue with the rest of the reports?"

Raelle turned her eyes back towards the document in her hand and nodded, "I never said you shouldn't. Stop wasting my time and continue. You have only 15 more minutes."

The employee who had been in a spot looked gratefully at the senior manager. For a moment, he must have really lost his mind to forget that for Raelle Xiang, there was no such thing as luck. It was all based on calculations. Luck would never be a factor for success and that, she believed wholeheartedly. He was curious about the identity of the young man behind his boss but he was even more grateful towards that handsome young man who seemed to have saved his job today.

The young man who dared to treat Raelle so casually was none other than Hyson. And while she was on the video call, he had already munched on all the snacks she had in her cabinet. As soon as he saw her ending the call, he called out, "Don't you have anything else here? You called me here and you have nothing to even offer me to eat?"

"I called you over to have lunch with me," told Raelle to him. "There is still 10 minutes before lunchtime. So, have patience."

"Being your friend, the one thing I learned is patience," replied Hyson as he sat in her swivel chair without a care in the world.

Raelle went over and stood before the desk as she asked, "You've been in a bad mood lately?"

It was more of a statement rather than a question. Hyson eyed her and asked, "How do you know I'm in a bad mood?"

"You wouldn't send me that provoking message otherwise," she replied plainly. Taking a moment, she added, "Don't tell me you're really upset because your heart is torn after seeing me marrying another man."

Hyson made a face as if he was about to vomit everything he just ate. "Was that your attempt to joke around? Because it sucked!" He took a moment and added, "There is only one woman I love in this life, and that's my mom!"

Raelle flipped the pen in her hand repeatedly as she continued to look at his face and asked, "Then what is bothering you?"

Hyson looked back at her and smiled, "I'm worried about you. Mostly, about your poor husband. Whenever I think about how is gonna have to live his life with you, my heart aches for him."

"Liar!" was all she said with a straight face making him roll his eyes at her.

"Did you wear the gift I sent you?" he asked in return.

"No," she answered honestly. Even he knew the answer to the question he asked.

"Since you don't value my gift, I'm not gonna answer you either," he said. "Go and find out what's bothering me on your own."

"Do you really think I can't?" she questioned. She thought about it before continuing, "I can even narrow it down for you right now." Hyson arched his brow at her slightly as she went on, "It's not a personal problem since you neither have friends nor lovers. And in your family, you only have a mother who can never give you any worry. What does that leave? Your career!"

"I hate you," he said. "Why do you have to analyze everything?"

"I didn't even have to though," she replied. "You happen to be pretty simple to understand."
