"How is this possible? Did you know they were going to meet today?" Jaya asked her sister in astonishment. She thought her sister was busy refining her soul power and forging an ego gem so she had lost touch with what was going on in the company, but it seems she had underestimated her sister. 

"I knew Cindy was going to meet somebody special today but didn't think it would be the new chairman of Fine Gold Dalton Fucking Wyatt." Diana did not hide her intent on the fact that she was not the chairwoman anymore.

"How? How did you know that Cindy was going to meet somebody today? Did the R&D team finally perfect Hacking?" Jaya asked with great expectation.

"I hate to break your heart but I have shut down all projects on 'Hacking', it was going nowhere. As for Cindy's plan, Tower no.2's Chief Chef, Informed me that she was planning to receive someone today. He was pissed that she meddled in his daily routine and asked him to cook for her guest. Even if I don't own the majority shares in the company, in the employee's minds I am their boss. This is why I keep asking you not to treat the employees like shit." Diana knew that as long as she or the new chairman himself didn't come out and announce the regime change in the company, Employees would think that she was in charge.

"If they weren't so fucking stupid I wouldn't have to treat them as such would I." Jaya may have found respect for the new Chairman of Fine Gold but in the end, she was still a shitty person. The only thing that changed right now was that she had started working hard to earn her place next top 1 percentile of the world, even rich and entitled can dream. Not to forget that the only thing worse than a shitty person was a hard-working shitty person with a dream. You know their dream was going to smellier than the smelliest poop you ever had dropped. 

"There is a trick to that, I will teach you, we will need to get you a pet for that." Now that Diana knew she was going to be climbing to places she wanted to train her trusted sister to hold the base for her. Because no matter what this was where her legend began. 

"You are finally going to allow me to get a pet, yea!" Jaya cheered when she heard that her monster-hating sister was planning to get her a pet. 

"Oh, no honey, not that kind of pet." Diana corrected Jaya, She was one of the victims of the monster war, she would be damned before she took in a monster as a pet. 

"What? What kind of pet are you speaking of? As far as I know, there is only one kind of pet. Are there different kinds of pets?" Jaya was puzzled hearing her sister, half of the time she didn't understand what her older sister was saying.

"You will see, it will be a teachable moment for you. You know what, I am kind of looking forward to it." Diana spoke in riddles, adding confusion to her already confused slow-witted sister.

"So, what are you going to do about Cindy? I warned you repeatedly about her, I literally said these words, 'she would stab you in the back one day.' But you didn't listen, now look we have raised a traitor amidst ourselves." Jaya had hated Cindy's gut for a long time, Cindy was just another crony of her sisters yet she acted all high and might. Now that Cindy has shown signs of rebellion Jaya couldn't be happier. 

"Cindy isn't the problem, this is her way of giving us a heads up that she has switched sides. The problem is our new Chairman, I cannot help but feel that he knows that I am eavesdropping on their conversation. He keeps looking right at the spy device." Diana knew better than to underestimate Cindy, who has worked for her for years. So, she had already guessed that Cindy chose the venue to meet up with the new boss knowing full well that Diana would spy on them. Diana was not bothered by Cindy, what bothered her was that the new Chairman of Fine Gold Merchants also appeared to know that she was spying on them. Perhaps Cindy already informed him of this, Diana could not help but wonder.

"This must be one of those weird coincident." Jaya interpreted. 

"Coincidence, perhaps. But then I would be underestimating him. The whole city underestimated that boy, and in the end, the boy survived and Circle fled the city. While the entire world dreads the name of the southern emperor, he seems to have a questionable relationship with her. When it comes to him there are no coincidences. I think he knows I am eavesdropping on them. But the question is why is he letting me eavesdrop on their conversation?" 

"Come on, sister you speak as if he is all-knowing, I know he has achieved unexpected things in the past but this, even for him is too much." though Jaya spoke these words, they lacked confidence. As she too like her sister believed that if it is him then it was possible. 

"Jaya, what have I taught you about underestimating your enemy?" Diana asked Jaya sternly. 

" I better order a coffin for myself" Jaya answered.

"Not that one the other one." 

" I better dig a grave for myself" 

"No, not that either."

"I better my engrave my tombstone with the words, 'Here lies the dumbass that died underestimating her enemy.'

"Ding, Ding… that's the one." Diana applauded when Jaya finally spoke the answer she wanted but not the other correct answers. 

"Ugh, then what are going to do about this?" though annoyed Jaya still asked her sister what she planned to do about the situation.

"Noth—" As Diana was about to answer her sister she abruptly halted hearing a voice from her grimoire, "CEO Diana, If you are free why don't you and your sister join us for breakfast, your chef makes one of the best bacon I have ever tasted." 

*BRRAAAK* *BZZZT* a weird static sound emitted and the feed was cut, leaving Diana and Jaya dumbfounded.
